So now that the anti-biotics have kicked in, my body is expelling all the dead crap that's in my lungs.

It's cough-fest at the Ragin' House.  I've got one hell of a headache from it.

My, that's refreshing

When a four-star flag officer (retired) comes out and says what most right-thinking people already know.

“The Obama administration has a strategy. It is very simple. Any thinking American should be able to grasp it. It’s anti-American, anti-Western, it’s pro-Islamic, pro-Iranian, and pro-Muslim Brotherhood,” he said last week at a conference hosted by the conservative Center for Security Policy where he heads the military committee. 

Lyons, in the Navy for 36 years and a critic of Obama, said the nation has to come to “grips” with Islam as something other than a religion. “Until you recognize that Islam is the political movement masquerading as a religion, you’re never going to come to grips with it,” he said at the conference titled the "Defeat Jihad Summit."

Along with Rudy Giuliani attacking the Teleprompter Jesus and the Democrat Media Complex in full, freak-out panic damage control mode, this might end up being an interesting weekend for news.

Important to remember. Giuliani is a private citizen with zero legislative power. He expressed an opinion. Look what's happening to him

I rejoin the living

I've been working from home as much as I could.  Now I'm actually going in to the office.  Luckily I've stopped caughing up massive amounts of crud, so I should be OK.

Read it

There's a reason why every muslim country that didn't get colonized by Europe is a backwards, crime-ridden, tyrannical shithole.  Because of Islam.  Islam is a backwards political cult disguised as a religion.  Don't think for a moment that ISIS doesn't represent "true" Islam.  It does.  It represents Islam better than anything you could find in the world.

Went to the doc

Got a diagnosis of "Bacterial crud in the body from the waist up, more or less".

Z-pack.  Inhaler.  Cough medicine so strong it puts me down in fifteen minutes.

I can't wait to get out of this city.  I haven't been sick this often in years, and I'm pretty sure most of it is a reaction to the pollution that leads to infections.  As in, my body is so busy trying to repair the damage from the pollution that when some nasty bug or virus wanders in and puts its dirty boots on the sofa, my immune system can't do much more than shrug.

Dear Young People of Today

This is what voting for liberal politicians gets you.  Lower wages, less opportunity, more debt, less freedom.

Here is the key take-away from that chart, at least in my mind:

                                                         1980     2009-2013
Median Income (2013 dollars)      $35,845     $33,883

Take a look at that.  And realize that as this country has gotten more and more liberal, your opportunities have slipped further and further way.  Socialism eats its young in order to survive.

Think about this statement

And how true it is in the context of today's society.

When female prison guards have sex with male inmates, they’re the victims! But when male prison guards have sex with female inmates the inmates are the victims.

Think about how society today still deals with women and sex.  And how the Modern Feminists encourage that kind of treatment, where the women are always victims and men are always criminals.

Once you have grasped that truth, then you can begin to see it's rot on the rest of society.  And move to counter it.

DHS now demanding that DUI illegal aliens be let go

When truth is stranger than fiction.

Obtained by Judicial Watch this week, the notice is titled “Enforcement Options With Alcohol-Impaired Drivers” and directs the 4,000-plus U.S. Border Patrol agents in the Tucson, Arizona sector to “release” individuals under the influence and “allow them to go on their way.” The document acknowledges that this feels counter-intuitive for Border Patrol agents, but eases concerns by answering a hypothetical question for the officers who have sworn to uphold the law: “If you allow this driver to continue down the road and they kill someone, aren’t you liable?” The answer is no, according to the new Department of Homeland Security (DHS) memo. “There is no legal requirement for a Border Patrol agent to intervene in a state crime, including DUI,” the order says, adding that “therefore there is generally no liability that will attach to the agent or agency for failing to act in this situation.”

Now, guess what happens if you're caught drinking and driving in the USA and you're a legal citizen?

Jail time?  Loss of license?  Massive fines?  Thousands of dollars in court costs?

But if you're a border-jumping wetback, you're HOME FREE, BABY!

Crap like this is why the average American no longer trusts the government to do even the basic things it's supposed to do.  Well, that and the crippling cronyism, incompetence and idiocy.

Still sick

Although better than yesterday.  "better" being a rather relative term.

Down for the count

Sick as a dog.  Lymph nodes the size of golf balls underneath my jawline.  Hacking and snorting out crap.

Luckily, I have a totally kick-ass wife who takes care of me when I get like this.  Fresh squeezed OJ.  Yum.

If I get a wild hair up my ass I'll describe what the snot-ball looks like after I hack it up.  "Oh, look at the green striations!"

Pick one.

Leftists cry "but, but COLLEGE DEGREE!" re @ScottWalker. Um, okay....Geo W Bush had a masters, but you think he was stupid. #PickAStance
