Taking a personal day

Got lots of things to do. I might actually be able to stay home and do them!

More proof...

Scratch a Democrat, find a Dictator.

A Federal Communications Commission investigation of on-air military analysts is providing a glimpse of what Democrats and an Obama administration will do to critics once they capture Washington.

The FCC has sent letters to some of the nation's most prominent military analysts -- some of them pro-President Bush and pro-war -- suggesting they may have broken the law when they appeared on television stations to comment on and explain the war on terrorism.

The FCC investigation raises the question of whether a Democrat-controlled Congress and White House next year will investigate -- and perhaps criminalize -- all sorts of actions taken by the Bush administration. Obama is leading in all presidential polls, while Democrats are set to greatly increase their hold on the House and Senate.

This is what happens when you let the Left take power. Any and all dissent will be crushed. The Left will do their best to stamp out and punish anyone who disagrees with them.

I swear, I'm keeping my ammo stocked up.

Quote of the Day

Before Heinlein became obsessed with sex and polyamory (and hell, even after that) he was a philosopher disguised as a novelist. This quote that Instapundit pulled out bears repeating:

Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.

This is known as "bad luck."

Yep. And every tax plan that the Left's Lord and Messiah Barak Obama has come up with does exactly that. But the Democrat American Communist Party will find some scapegoat to blame it on.

A New Voter Rights Organization

My buddy Hodge wrote this and sent it to me, and it was too damn funny NOT to post. So I asked him for permission, he gave it, and here it is for you to enjoy.

********

To Whom It May Concern,

It has recently come to my attention that certain organizations that represent the interests of the United States of America in the aspect of democratic elections has come under fire. Presently there are investigations ongoing in a plethora of states involving a very large organization for voter fraud. Let me just say that if these allegations prove true, this organization has irrevocably demeaned the basis of democracy in this country. Therefore it is incumbent upon myself to present an equitable alternative to the current high profile advocate for liberal voter rights.
It is for these reasons that I am founding the new champion of voter rights. My organization, Community Organizations of Reforming Narcissists Hellbent On Liberalizing Everyone or C.O.R.N.H.O.L.E. for short, will ensure every United States Citizen or French, Indian, Russian, Canadian, and even Iranian citizen the right to vote in our elections.
C.O.R.N.H.O.L.E. is dedicated to nothing less than every person, living or dead, real or fictional having a say in the elections of the United States of America. However, C.O.R.N.H.O.L.E. realizes that this objective cannot be attained by behaving as its predecessor. Strict, well, semi-strict rules must be in place as to appear to make C.O.R.N.H.O.L.E. look respectable.
A few examples of new rules C.O.R.N.H.O.L.E. will implement to distance ourselves from previous voting rights organizations are below:

• C.O.R.N.H.O.L.E. will not allow any person dead for a period of less than ten (10) years to register or vote. This practice is deplorable as the families of these deceased individuals could see the names on the registrant lists and become despondent.
• No individual will be allowed to register in more than thirty-six (36) states without written consent.
• C.O.R.N.H.O.L.E. will not acknowledge the voting right of any fictional character created before 1900. Most of these characters are iconic symbols of the American culture and should not be used in such a frivolous manner. Also, by using the names and likenesses of these characters C.O.R.N.H.O.L.E. employees would show an astonishing lack of creativity and/or cleverness which is something C.O.R.N.H.O.L.E. deeply frowns upon.
• No Disney characters will be registered as it would be assumed that they would most likely vote Republican (Goofy being the obvious exception).
• No illegal narcotics will be given as incentives for degenerates to vote. Degenerates require a positive reward for voting, hence only legal narcotics such as nicotine and alcohol based products will be given as incentives. Crystal Meth is permitted in Washington D.C. and Chicago.
• The "glasses and banana nose" disguise will no longer be allowed for voters who vote more than a dozen times. The use of said disguise is obvious and an insult to Jimmy Carter’s monitoring team stationed at polling stations across the country. C.O.R.N.H.O.L.E. doesn’t want to make it difficult for them to ignore you.
• Any and all Warner Brothers Looney Tunes characters will be automatically added to the registration lists of every county in every state due to the liberal leaning viewpoints of Bugs Bunny and Elmore Fudd when Bugs is dressed in drag. These characters also frequently teach valuable lessons about the dangers of firearms.
• Cash bribes will no longer be given to degenerates to vote. All donations belong to me. If a voter insists on a cash bribe simply fill in the registration form for him or her and submit it to thirty-six (36) states. We will have personnel on hand (wearing the "blonde wig and witch nose" disguise) to vote for them.
• Any and all Muppets detained at polling stations will be instructed to immediately claim racism and call MSNBC.
• The names Pablo Escobar, Johnny Smith, Abraham Lincoln, C. Thomas Howell and Keith Olberman may not be used more than a million times in any given state (this rule does not apply to Florida, Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, or Colorado).
• C.O.R.N.H.O.L.E. reserves the right to refuse to register any person which it believes may attempt to vote for a Republican or even a centrist Democrat.

It is my firm belief that C.O.R.N.H.O.L.E. will become the chief voting rights organization in the United States and that the above rules will allow us to maintain the high level of excellence in voting standards that this country has so prominently showcased.
For anyone wishing to privately support C.O.R.N.H.O.L.E. donations may be given at any of our offices in all fifty-seven states. Please make checks payable to the Premier of the People’s Republic of China.

Thank you for your time and attention.

Now THAT'S funny right there!

Shell Shocked

I don't know just how much I've told people about my career on the blog, but let's just say that I'm still adjusting to my PCS.

I went from being a Squad Leader to having no troops.

I went from being part of the unit leadership at my last duty station, to being the lowest ranking (and youngest) AGR in my new unit.

I went from having a 1LT as my commander to working in a two-star (that would be a Major General for all you civilians) command.

Let's just say that I'm quite a bit more busy now than I was a year ago. So if I don't get a blog post out right away, please forgive me.

Sweet Emotion

Pardon me, but I need to go throw my CD of "Toys in the Attic" into the stereo and crank it to 11.

A flaming crock of horse manure

Mr. Alger has a post up regarding the latest and greatest line of bullshit the Democrat American Communist Party has trotted out: The Second Bill of Rights.

In our day these economic truths have become accepted as self-evident. We have accepted, so to speak, a second Bill of Rights under which a new basis of security and prosperity can be established for all--regardless of station, race, or creed.

Among these are:

The right to a useful and remunerative job in the industries or shops or farms or mines of the nation;

The right to earn enough to provide adequate food and clothing and recreation;

The right of every farmer to raise and sell his products at a return which will give him and his family a decent living;

The right of every businessman, large and small, to trade in an atmosphere of freedom from unfair competition and domination by monopolies at home or abroad;

The right of every family to a decent home;

The right to adequate medical care and the opportunity to achieve and enjoy good health;

The right to adequate protection from the economic fears of old age, sickness, accident, and unemployment;

The right to a good education.

I am so. Sick. And. Tired. Of all these brain-dead fucktards babbling about crap they obviously have no clue about. I am sick and tired of anti-American Leftist whores making up "rights" like they just grow on trees. I am so very sick and tired of watching the Constitution of the United States of America mutilated and crapped on just so that some fucking Leftist bastard can enforce a failed ideology on MY country.

There isn't a single thing in that list that qualifies as a right. Period, end of story, fine. Dolly has a fine takedown on this bubbling pile of excrement.

The right t' life dun't require somebody t' pervide somethin' to ya. Ya exist. Yer alive. Nobody hasta do anything t' allow ya t' exercise that right. It's free-standing.

The so-called "rights" in that wackadoo Second Bill of Rights all mean somebody's gotta provide somethin' fer you. In order fer you t' exercise yer right t' a job, there hasta be a job provided. You c'n have a right ta work, and you can make your own job or work at a job on offer. But as soon as you make the job the thing you have a right to, yer 'nfringin' on th' rights of private property 'n' freedom of association of the person providing the job.

And, to Donald Duck to you the absurd one, if not enough jobs are on offer to provide all comers with one, then the gummint would haveta force someone to provide enough to make up the shortfall. Which basically means the provider becomes a slave to government.

Alla th' rights you got there 'r the same. They demand th' infringement of ind'vidjal rights, and c'n get pretty oppressive pretty damned quick.

In order for a thing to be a "right", it has to happen without any effort from any other person. A right cannot be given to you. IT CAN ONLY BE INFRINGED UPON.

Freedom of Religion - nobody has to lift a finger in order for you to worship as you wish
Freedom of Speech - nobody has to do anything in order for you to speak your mind
Freedom of the Press - nobody has to blink in order for you to set up a printing press if you want to.
Freedom to Petition - Go right ahead. Pull out a pad of paper, write a grievance, and get some signatures.
Freedom to Assemble - PARTY AT MY PLACE!
Right to Bear Arms - probably the clearest definition of how a right can only be infringed upon. All people can do is infringe on this right. There's no way it can be given to anyone, it can only be taken away, and has been in many states.

So on and so forth. The Bill of Rights was set on paper to ensure that the government wouldn't fuck it up. But our government has fucked it up regardless, mainly because for the past fifty years, with a couple of exceptions, the government has been made up of greedy fucking parasites that couldn't tie their own shoes without some poll telling them which foot to tie first.

But now some idiotic fuckstick comes up with their so-called bill of rights, but for this brainless dipshit to get his bill of rights someone else will have to pay for it!

Fuck. You. With. A. Chainsaw.

Bite me, you communist cockgoblins. Take your bill of rights and shove it up your ass, right next to your head. You should have practice performing that motion, since you've been wiping your ass with the actual Bill of Rights as much as you could get away with.

Random Thoughts

Gleaned while dealing with food issues today. The folks to produce most of the packaged food in this country put soy into EVERYTHING. If I didn't know a little about food production and economics I swear it was a conspiracy. You think I'm kidding? Try finding a food without soy lecithin in it. Lecithin is an emulsifier; that is, it is used to combine fat with water. Normally, the fat is in the form of vegetable oil. Soybean oil, sunflower oil, or safflower oil.

But they use soy lecithin like it's going out of style. It's in chocolate. It's in most the Halloween candy out there. It's in sauces and soups. It's in friggin TAPIOCA PUDDING MIX, which is how I got to thinking about this in the first place.

Eating that much soy can't be healthy. But seriously - try finding foods without a soy product in it.

Sounds good to me

The Liberal Media has had it's chance. They have failed, in almost every aspect.

Most importantly, they have failed to accurately report the news.


Without accurate news reporting, everything else goes downhill. If I can't trust the newspaper to tell me what happened yesterday, without interjecting their liberal bias, then I am not getting the news, I'm just getting a really expensive editorial page. Which is what 99% of the Drive-By Media has become.

So let's get rid of them.

This is still America. Someone will spring up to fill the demand, once the rotting carcass of the Has-Been Media is removed out of the way.

The Obama-bots

There's a forum I post on every now and then. I had posted about Obama's campaign finance fraud, and I got this email from someone who shall remain nameless. And I'm not correcting her spelling at all.

David, get a life, if you can not state facts, why spread lies, No Honor;you fit perfectly in the other camp

So naturally I wrote her back -

Prove me wrong, then.

Well, that didn't go over too well with this woman, and she came back with this:

It's not my job or place to prove you wrong, it's' your job research and learn the facts, if what you say is true, he would not be in the position he is in now. Or maybe you want to chase Bin Laden to the gates of hell, but being a military dependents and spouse you will be in my prayers

Well, I couldn't let that sit, so I replied to her -

With all due respect, I've done my research on Senator Obama. YOU are the one emailing me and calling me a liar. I'm guessing that you did a little digging in order to write me back a snarky email, found out that you can't disprove a single thing I've said, and so you are left with "Do your own research" as a retort. Trust me, I've done my research. Both candidates make me gag. But Obama, with Democrats in charge of Congress, would be disastrous for this country. We can do damage control on McCain's presidency. An Obama presidency would sink this country faster than the Titanic.

His relationships with ACORN, William Ayers, Jeremiah Wright, his membership in the socialist New Party in the 90's, his leadership of the Joyce Foundation, even the fact that he's spent more time campaigning to be President than he has doing his actual job, all show that he's not right for this country. Let him continue to represent Chicago. But not my country.

And that brought forth the spittle-flecked rant that's common to Leftist kool-aid guzzlers.

First of all David, I never called you a liar, secondly people like you that have a one track mine would not know the truth if it came up and bit you, you still would not believe it; and third every thing you said after that are Repuk talking points, ACORN and it has been proving that someone from the McCain/Unstable hired a guy that was found guilty of voter registrationfraud, Ayers, come on giving me a break Obama was eight when that happen and the board/case that Obama sat on he was only second in command to the Justice Dept, but I guess the Christian that you are or if you are one, is not forgiving of anyone who has made mistakes in their life (must be lonely being the only perfect person on planet earth); and the Wright thing, please view the WHOLE tape not a thirty second clip from FAUX NEWS, he was actually quoting a guest that was on Faux News earlier that week. If you can do damage control to McBush presidency then you should have done it for his mentor Bush, and what about judgment, his pick of SP, have more repubs and conservatives jumping ship to support Obama than you have dems supportingMcBush. Going to McBush website and getting info is not the same as doing research, it's this thing called the WORLDWIDE WEB, try that instead; (good luck)

P.S. And if both candidates make you gag, how about going to another country, I hear Afghanistan is recruiting and he will continue to representChi-town and the other 49 states

At that point I knew I had a rabid moonbat on my hands, but I couldn't resist poking it once more.

First of all, let's look at your response. Repuk talking points? McCain/Unstable? McBush? FAUX News? I have a list of things that I reject Obama for, and you've got ad hominum attacks. Yeah, that's really going to convince me.

Second of all, let me quote from your very first email that you sent me: "David, get a life, if you can not state facts, why spread lies, No Honor;you fit perfectly in the other camp"

You accused me of spreading lies, i.e. you called me a liar. You can't even be honest about what you yourself said, and yet I'm supposed to believe you when it comes to your political candidate? Nope, sorry. That dog don't hunt.

Third - I've seen Wright's sermons. They're based off of Black Liberation Theology, which is distasteful at best and flat out anti-American at worst. And Obama sat in that church for twenty years, absorbing it. Wright married Obama and his wife. Wright baptized his children. He sat for twenty years listening to racism and hatred, yet people try to tell me that it doesn't mean anything. Wrong, it DOES mean something, and all the excuses people make only serve to show how unfit Obama is to be President.

Fourth - when William Ayers gave his interview, in which he stated that the Weathermen Underground DID NOT BOMB ENOUGH, Obama was 40 years old. Ayers is an unrepentant domestic terrorist, and has made his views clear on a number of occasions.

Fifth - I'm not a Republican, and I don't go to the McCain campaign website. Campaign websites are nothing but propaganda for the candidate in question. What I have done is research the background of the candidates, including how they voted on certain bills, how they've acted in the past, and what they've said in the past. I don't expect you to believe me. Quite honestly, I
don't even expect you to reply back, except for a few spittle-flecked insults in the same vein as your previous email. But I have done my research. McCain might disgust me, but Obama's radical Left background not only repulses me, but frightens me with the amount of damage he can and will
do to this country if he gets elected.

Feel free to hurl more insults my way when you want to.

And the last thing I heard from her was....

David, this has been real, but I got to go, have a nice life and may God be
you and your always

Rather nice parting, but it's amazing when you press a Leftist on the facts how quickly they retreat.

As if I needed more proof...

Obama is a Marxist, through and through. Here's some choice quotes thanks to Stop the ACLU.

If you look at the victories and failures of the civil rights movement and its litigation strategy in the court. I think where it succeeded was to invest formal rights in previously dispossessed people, so that now I would have the right to vote. I would now be able to sit at the lunch counter and order as long as I could pay for it I’d be o.k. But, the Supreme Court never ventured into the issues of redistribution of wealth, and of more basic issues such as political and economic justice in society. To that extent, as radical as I think people try to characterize the Warren Court, it wasn’t that radical. It didn’t break free from the essential constraints that were placed by the founding fathers in the Constitution, at least as its been interpreted and Warren Court interpreted in the same way, that generally the Constitution is a charter of negative liberties. Says what the states can’t do to you. Says what the Federal government can’t do to you, but doesn’t say what the Federal government or State government must do on your behalf, and that hasn’t shifted and one of the, I think, tragedies of the civil rights movement was, um, because the civil rights movement became so court focused I think there was a tendancy to lose track of the political and community organizing and activities on the ground that are able to put together the actual coalition of powers through which you bring about redistributive change. In some ways we still suffer from that.

Yeehaw! All aboard the Communism Express, straight down to hell!

Yeah, today was busy too

Took a friend up to a town to pick up a few items. Normally this friend could go on his own, but he recently had his ankle replaced, so his wife won't let him out of the house unless there's someone else around.

No, he's not henpecked. This is the mans 5th surgery on that ankle. Near as we can tell, he pushed himself too soon after each surgery, didn't let the ankle heal, and it just kept getting worse. He's a stubborn cuss. So at this point, his wife is threatening to tie him to the couch in order to keep him from walking before he should.

Someone even gave him a get-well card that said "SIT! STAY!" on the front of it. I kid you not.

Anyways, I think I've spent more time in the house over the week after work hours than I did this weekend. Ah well. Sometimes that's just life. See ya all tomorrow.
