STIMULUS: MORSUS PANDUS

Three contractors are bidding to fix a broken fence at the White House. One is from Chicago, another is from Tennessee, and the third is from Minnesota. All three go with a White House official to examine the fence. 

The Minnesota contractor takes out a tape measure and does some measuring, then works some figures with a pencil. "Well," he says, "I figure the job will run about $900: $400 for materials, $400 for my crew and $100 profit for me."

The Tennessee contractor also does some measuring and figuring, then says, "I can do this job for $700: $300 for materials, $300 for my crew and $100 profit for me."

The Chicago contractor doesn't measure or figure, but leans over to the White House official and whispers, "$2,700." The official, incredulous, says, "You didn't even measure like the other guys! How did you come up with such a high figure?" The Chicago contractor whispers back, "$1000 for me, $1000 for you, and we hire the guy from Tennessee to fix the fence." "Done!" replies the government official.

And that, my friends, is how the new stimulus plan will work.

NUGENT FOR PRESIDENT

The most succinct, to the point and apprpo explanation of what is VERY CLEARY stated in the 2nd amendment I have heard in a long while. Clear to everyone accept a bunch of overeducated "numb nuts" with ulterior motive. People whose educations far exceed their intelligence.

Please review interview of Ted Nugent

STENCH

The country is not sick and dying spiritually because it has and supports rampant and blatant homosexuality; it is quite the opposite: we have rampant homosexuality and the blatant support of it because we as a people are spiritually dead already!  What we are experiencing is the stench of a corpse long dead! That is the declaration and condemnation of Romans 1:16-32. 

 Why would and how could the spiritually alive expect anything else?

Your comment about me being a bit 'tight' is interesting. The things I post on the blog (with exception to the light hearted jokes ) are truths as a mutual acquaintance said "methods and concepts are many and change often, but principles are few and never do." We are seeing the very end of the greatest government and people to ever grace civilization with its and their presence. ... In the meantime cutthroats like the Obama's, Bush's, Clinton's, etc will reek havoc with the last vestige of freedom and liberty known in the world. Yes I put the Bush's in the same list. I believe GW has done more to bring this country down than any foe we have faced in our history. He has certainly set the stage for an avowed Marxist/Islamist like Obama.

‘Any government strong enough to give you all you want is strong enough to take all you have.’ Thomas Jefferson

This I believe and make absolutely no apology for it. Contrariwise, I am not naive: the truth is the truth whether I know it, understand it, believe it, support it or practice it.

JAMES MADISON

Americans have the right and advantage of being armed - unlike the citizens of other countries whose governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. James Madison  

As long as the reason of man continues fallible, and he is at liberty to exercise it, different opinions will be formed. James Madison  

Do not separate text from historical background. If you do, you will have perverted and subverted the Constitution, which can only end in a distorted, bastardized form of illegitimate government. James Madison  

I believe there are more instances of the abridgement of freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments by those in power than by violent and sudden usurpations. James Madison 

If Tyranny and Oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy. James Madison 

In framing a government, which is to be administered by men over men, you must first enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place oblige it to control itself. James Madison 

It will be of little avail to the people that the laws are made by men of their own choice if the laws be so voluminous that they cannot be read, or so incoherent that they cannot be understood.  James Madison  

Liberty may be endangered by the abuse of liberty, but also by the abuse of power. 
James Madison  

The executive has no right, in any case, to decide the question, whether there is or is not cause for declaring war. James Madison  

The means of defense against foreign danger historically have become the instruments of tyranny at home. James Madison 

The people are the only legitimate fountain of power, and it is from them that the constitutional charter, under which the several branches of government hold their power, is derived. James Madison  

The truth is that all men having power ought to be mistrusted. James Madison 

To suppose that any form of government will secure liberty or happiness without any virtue in the people is a chimerical idea. James Madison 

Where an excess of power prevails, property of no sort is duly respected. No man is safe in his opinions, his person, his faculties, or his possessions. James Madison 

CLASS TRIP

A group of 3rd, 4th and 5th graders, accompanied by two female teachers, went on a field trip to the local racetrack, (Churchill  Downs ) to learn about thoroughbred horses and the supporting industry (Bourbon), but mostly to see the horses.

When it was time to take the children to the bathroom, it was decided that the girls would go with one teacher and the boys would go with the other. The teacher assigned to the boys was waiting outside the men's room when one of the boys came out and told her that none of them could reach the urinal.

Having no choice, she went inside, helped the boys with their pants, and began hoisting the little boys up one by one, holding on to their 'wee-wees' to direct the flow away from their clothes . As she lifted one, she couldn't help but notice that he was unusually well endowed.

Trying not to show that she was staring the teacher said, 'You must be in the 5th grade.'

'No, ma'am', he replied. 'I'm riding Silver Arrow in the seventh race, but I appreciate your help.'

MARXIST AMERIKA - USSA

Why is Obama targeting Rush Limbaugh?  Very simple, if you understand that one of Obama's primary "mentors" (in addition to Obama's close friends and supporters -1) unrepentant terrorist William Ayers, -2) racketeer Tony Rezko and -3) lunatic racist Jeremiah Wright) was in fact Saul Alinsky - an avowed communist and the original "community organizer"; who literally wrote the book on radical community organization strategy.  And again, in case you missed it - Obama's mentor - if you don't know who Saul Alinsky is, you don't know who Barack Obama is.  Thanks to the mainstream media, very few folks ever heard of Alinsky, particularly during the campaign - yet another reprehensible example of the mainstream media's complete abdication of their journalistic, ethical and moral obligations to America and Americans (that's real Americans, not the 20+ million illegal aliens taking advantage of real Americans).

From Alinsky's "Rules for Radicals" - RULE 12: Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it. Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions. (This is cruel, but very effective. Direct, personalized criticism and ridicule works.)

This is a direct quote from Alinsky's "Rules For Radicals".  They don't have George Bush to go after anymore, so now, based on their polling - and by "they" I mean Obama, James Carville, George Stephanopolis, et al - they've picked Rush Limbaugh as the voice of conservatives and conservatism in America - by applying Alinsky's Rule #12, they fully intend to marginalize all conservatives by marginalizing Rush Limbaugh.  Whether or not you like Rush isn't the point - the point is that Barack Obama adheres to and believes in Marxist economics, and through the "stimulus package v.1 + v.2 + v.2 + v.ad infinitum - he fully intends to achieve the redistribution of wealth that Marxism/socialism requires.  The stimulus package has nothing to do with stimulating the economy; it is entirely focused on the concept of nationalizing industry, the banks and implementing Marx's philosophy - "from those according to their ability to those according to their need" again straight out of the Karl Marx playbook (not to be confused with Groucho, Harpo or Zeppo).

Make no mistake about it, that's where Obama fully intends to take America - he has told us as much many times.  This is a man who, in an interview on Chicago radio several years ago, called the U.S. Constitution a "charter of negative limitations" - a man who, during a speech in Colorado during the campaign, said he believes we should have a civil defense force as well funded and equipped as the military - a man who appointed an Attorney General who does not believe in the 2nd Amendment right to bear arms. 

While all is certainly not lost, we are surrounded by the harbingers of America's demise - the point of no return could be the institution of socialized medicine, because once the government has control over our personal health and well-being they literally have control over our lives - and by extension our death.  Do we really want federal bureaucrats making life-or-death decisions for us and our families?  Imagine, if you will - Barney Frank, Charles Schumer, Harry Reid, John Murtha, Barbara Boxer - and Nancy Pelosi - picking who lives and who dies.
 
How long can real Americans - liberal or conservative - continue to ignore this pattern of behavior?  How long will real Americans deny the inevitable outcome?

America is at a crossroads; which way do we choose?  Do we go with the flow or stand against the tide?  

Will we answer the clarion call in time?

Nobody ever said it'd be easy

BLONDS

An old, blind cowboy wanders into an all-girl biker bar by mistake. He finds his way to a barstool and orders some coffee. After sitting there for a while, he yells to the waiter, 'Hey, you wanna hear a blonde joke?' The bar immediately falls absolutely silent. In a very deep, husky voice, the woman next to him says, 'Before you tell that joke, Cowboy, I think it is only fair, given that you are blind, that you should know five things: 

1.    The bartender is a blonde girl with a baseball bat. 

2.    The bouncer is a blonde girl. 

3.    I'm a 6 -foot tall, 175-pound blonde woman with a black belt in karate. 

4.    The woman sitting next to me is blonde and a professional weightlifter. 

5.    The lady to your right is blonde and a professional wrestler.  

 'Now, think about it seriously, Mister. Do you still wanna tell that joke?'  

The blind cowboy thinks for a second, shakes his head, and mutters,  'No, not if I'm gonna have to explain it five times.'

NATION OF COWARDS

An unfortunate fact of modern life in America is that we have been taught cradle to grave we have rights; rights, with absolutely no expectation of responsibility. Among the most egregious of which is the foolhearty notion Law Enforcement is responsible to protect our persons and property. Nothing could be further from reality. It is the responsibility of the individual, yes even the MORAL responsibility of the individual to protect themselves and their holdings.  "Crime is rampant because the law-abiding, each of us, condone it. excuse it. permit it. submit to it. We permit and encourage it because we do not fight back immediately, then and there, where it happens... The defect is there in our character. We are a nation of cowards and shirkers."

Possibly the most dangerous and shamefully misleading ads on T.V. is the rediculous notion an alarm system will deter a criminal bent on taking from your property and from your person withersoever. HOGWASH! By all means get an alarm system - that is good, moreso for your insurance payoff than any hope of personal protection - that duty falls directly upon us as individuals and our ability to wield a 12 ga. shotgun - for instance. It is a proven fact from Law Enforcement the very distinctive sound of activation of the slide action of a shotgun brings an immediate halt to most violent encounters.  I would bet far more affective than the fifteen minute warning given by home alarm systems.

And as Dirty Harry demonstrated: is it really loaded? Well, is it, punk?

TOLLERANCE

Diversity as a natural outgrowth of color-blind policy is good. Diversity for its own sake is racism.

THOMAS PAINE

A long habit of not thinking a thing wrong gives it a superficial appearance of being right. Thomas Paine  

Arms discourage and keep the invader and plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world as well as property... Horrid mischief would ensue were the law-abiding deprived of the use of them.  Thomas Paine  

Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state, an intolerable one. Thomas Paine  

It is an affront to treat falsehood with complaisance. Thomas Paine 

 That government is best which governs least. Thomas Paine 

 The instant formal government is abolished, society begins to act. A general association takes place, and common interest produces common security. Thomas Paine  

Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom must, like men, undergo the fatigue of supporting it. Thomas Paine  

To say that any people are not fit for freedom, is to make poverty their choice, and to say they had rather be loaded with taxes than not. Thomas Paine 

BETTER THAN SOCIAL SECURITY

Bill Clinton is getting $12 million for his memoirs; 

Hillary got $8 million for hers. 

That's $20 million for the memories from two people, who for eight years, repeatedly testified, under oath, that they couldn't remember anything. 

More shameful yet is the trail of blood left in their wake in the 90's - how soon we forget. I wonder how many threats or jogging of memories it took to get Congress to ignore the Emoluments Clause of Article I, Sec. 6 disqualifies Hillary Clinton from serving as Secretary of State?

NEW NATIONAL SYMBOL

The US government announced today it is changing its national symbol to a condum because it more accurately reflects the government's political stance. 

• A condom allows for inflation
• Halts production
• Destroys the next generation
• Protects a bunch of pricks 
• And gives you a sense of security while you're getting screwed.

It just doesn't get any more accurate than that.
