Do You Feel Like I Do ?

.
.
The conservatives are all selling books. Buy my book and find out how wrong the liberals are. Naw, I get it.

Listen to my radio show and find out how evil the liberals are. Naw, I get it.

Donate money to the ABC Foundation because They follow conservative principles. or to the XYZ Organization because they'll make sure no more of your rights are taken away.
Naw, personally, if voters don't pull their head out, all the money in the world won't do any good. Plus, do they know how to place my money where it will do the most good better than I could. Nope! I'd rather give it directly to conservatives like Allen West, or Michelle Bachmann when I chose to dispense money.

How about all the Republicans 'at war' with the Democrats but regardless of who's in power, nothing gets accomplished and we just continue the march to Socialism/Soft Communism/Fascism a little faster or slower.

I say it's all Bullshit. I say rather than let myself get polarized about this issue or that issue, that I just calmly go about the business of trying to get people who claim to be conservatives and have a little something to back it up, into positions of power. Otherwise we're all just paying to be raped by one side or the other.

Screw the ABC foundations and the XYZ organizations. Hell, they're probably run by liberals anyway. How about "Christian Science Monitor". One of the most liberal rags I see popping up on my news page on a consistent basis.

As in listening to Newt talk about returning to 'ficsal responsibility'. Fuck fiscal responsibility. Let's return to 1963. Let's talk about that and how we can do that. How we can start pounding on the foundational pillars of Communism that have taken over various physical parts and societal cultures of America. They've been pounding on the True pillars of America practically without opposition since 1963. Otherwise we are screwed. We are already screwed, so it's really more of how much longer we stay screwed.

PS - We got to figure out how to get a real candidate who can win in 2012. All the usual suspects that I hear that are at the 'top o the list', Newt, Romney, Huckabee - make me want to hurl.

Happy New Year Everyone!

Emily Protine - You Are A Moron

.
.
None of the idiotic incompetent tactics used by the TSA to molest, insult, and degrade the American public will keep you any safer. They pat down or scan 2-3% of the flying public and probably let many muslim men, aged 18 - 34 through without scanning because their diseased brains and instructions pay more attention to avoiding "racial profiling" than to have any respect for the American public.

Add to this, testers of 'the system' regularly get all manner of destructive device through 'the gauntlet' of TSA morons. None of this bullshit accomplishes Anything. I give it two years at most and you'll potentially have to submit to body cavity searches beside. Hope you enjoy it Emily and all the idiots running around like you out there.

Emily, You are a Freakin Moron.

As far as Claire, I would say she should know what she might be in for at the airport and should have 1.) brought up her medical condition with a call ahead to find out just how freakin ignorant the TSA might be, but 2.) the TSA had no right to put her on the ground in handcuffs and drag her across the floor 25 yards. This is worse than Nazism and blame goes to the TSA workers who are probably unqualified to work pretty much anywhere else, all the way up to the most incompetent person I have ever seen in government - janet neopolitan lesbian ice cream. Though eric holder comes in as a tie or maybe a whisker close 2nd.

Why didn't they simply tell her she couldn't fly ? TSA was originally called 'Those Standing Around' but they've apparently graduated to 'Those Sadistic Assholes'.

Is this what we pay our freaking money for as Americans. Is this the best we can expect from our government ?

And I'll not forget it was GW Bush who created the DHS and TSA. Once again reinforcing the idea that putting Republicans in office is about worthless.

And I did see this coming about 3 days after 9-11 when my mind began to coalesce in regard to the effects of 9-11 on America, but had no idea it would be this bad. And it's gonna get worse. Make no mistake, it was Easier for Germans to travel in Germany during WWII !!

La Laaa La leee Laaaa.

Oh, and add to this "passengers stuck on plane on Tarmac for 12 freakin hours at JFK."

THAT's KIDNAPPING ! Folks get your cell phones out and dial 911 and report that you are kidnapped. 12 hours? That's insane. 3 hours on the runway is insane. These idiots need to be forced to perform some customer service. I'm damn glad I don't have to fly for my job, and pity the folks who do and understand why some people put up with some real crap, but damn there's got to be some people who have some leeway about flying and can force change.

Finally, change things around a little, like maybe the people involved and the ACLU would be over this like stink. Man, this country is turning into a hellhole.

I Guess It Is Chet Week :)

.
.
Embed disabled so just a link.

Chet Atkins - Black Mountain Rag.

Chet recorded this tune at least three different times and each was a pretty good variation of the other two. This is the one I like the most. I've got his Rare Performance VCR's and there is one there from another performance, and I can tell you from the closeup of him playing that none of the 6 strings stops vibrating the entire time. He keeps them all going all 2:30.

This one is a little country.

Judging from the bell bottoms this must have been early 70's.

Hope you like it.

Chet and Johnny Cash, Story of the Hands.

.
.
The tune is called Recuerdos de la Alhambra




A little trivia. Chet married Leona Johnson in 1946 who sang with the Carter Sisters, one of which, June Carter became Johnny Cash's wife.

A fun interview with Tommy talking about Chet Atkins when Tommy was learning how to play at 6 years old in Australia.

Christmas Week, Here is some More Music

.
.
Chet on the Ed Sullivan some time ago, playing Blue Angel. I've never actually heard any of the other guitarists play this or try to. It's a nice little tune, so it must be difficult.

Ann Wagner Running for RNC Chair. I Favor Sarah Palin for the Job

.
.


I just saw a video of Ann Wagner asking for the RNC Chair position over at Carol-CS’s blog


She has an impressive resume, but she only used the word conservative twice.  She gave me the impression that simply voting Republicans back into the majority is the answer.  She never said 'tea party' once.
She talked about fund raising and funding the RNC as the #1 goal.

I understand that this is important, but the number one goal is not fund raising to the RNC.  Folks did a heck of a job funding Conservative candidates directly.  

In the last election, folks only needed to know who the Non-Democrat or Tea Party member was to vote for.  We don’t need infomercials about our candidates.  People who are going to vote for tea party/conservatives don’t need much direction.  Just give us a name and some youtube town hall videos.

I realize I may be asking for too much, but too much is the only thing that is going to do us any good.  The standard issue pendulum swing to the right is not going to do anything for us.  Most of the Republicans need to go.  In addition, we need politicians who are actually going to start canceling some of these liberal programs that have zero to negative return on investment.

I didn't hear any of these messages, not even a hint. So I cannot support her unless she changes her message to what I'm talking about.  And to me what I'm talking about is what I perceive to be the feeling of pretty much every right wing blog I visit.

I think Sarah Palin would make a great RNC head.  She's already said she'd tell Katie Couric to stuff it if invited to another interview.  This is what we need.  We need Bold colors.  The time for choosing pastels that hope to please idiots for the sake of getting another vote is not acceptable.  It actually loses votes anyway.  Look at what happened when Mr Please Everyone McCain ran.


The Dems have declared war on us.  They've accused us of being racists.  They’ve accused us of being domestic terrorists. They’ve accused our returning Iraq and Afghanistan veterans, the best we have to offer, of being major potential domestic terrorists.  They’re scanning us down to our skin at the airport and laughing at us. (Include GW Bush in the TSA).  They’re treating all of us like criminals at the airport.  This is not America. This does not resemble ANY America I have ever been familiar with up until the year 2009.

We need people who recognize that war has been declared on America from within.

They’re spending trillions of dollars on nothing and packing every bill with billions upon billions of $$ of earmarks and they think it’s OK.  Many Republicans see nothing wrong with this either.

We have a President who gives us the finger on Natl TV.  A President who personally insults All of us and all of his perceived detractors.  None of this resembles America.

I realize the RNC Chair doesn’t control the agenda of the Republican Party, but Sorry, I want every member of our team, the team that’s going to take on the socialist/soft communism Democrats on the same page as much as possible.

John Boehner is On Thin Ice



I've heard the arguments for why John Boehner is willing to accept the bill that extends the tax cuts. I just can't buy it.

Essentially, it is that the Dems may let the cuts expire and the new Congress wouldn't be able to reinstate them and get the imbecile obama to sign the bill, so America would be saddled with all these tax increases.

I'm Calling Bullshit on it. There is no way the Dems are going to let the tax cuts expire when that means that people in the lowest bracket, being 10% will get a 50% Increase in their income tax when it goes back to 15%.
(I don't believe the Dems give a shit about the economy so I'm not even going to bother with that argument...)


John Boehner and the Republicans are letting the Dems tack on another TRILLION in spending, let alone all the other evil crap that is attached to this thing.

Hey John, I'd sure like to play Poker with You!

In addition, in an interview with Leslie Stahl that I read on a CBS article, John Boehner talked about 'Working with the president'.

Hey John, What Don't You Understand About America Overwhelmingly Rejecting obama and the democrats and the agenda they've been raping us with the last fours years and even more so the last two ??

We Don't Want You 'Working with the President'. We Don't Want You Compromising (that word you refuse to utter and instead use every possible Thesaurus entry for it instead..) We don't Want You Reaching across the Aisle. What don't you understand about that ??? It makes me think you are as as deaf as obama.

Don't Compromise ! Let the Dems expire the tax bill if they have the stones to do it, then ram it down America's throat from now until 2012 that they are paying higher taxes because of the party that promised the middle class No Tax Increase.  Think of the fodder your party would get from THAT.

I'm being nice with the thin ice comment. If it was purely me, I'd toss you out right now and get someone who can at least hold their own with the kids in a game of Go Fish.

Update: A friend of mine informs me you placed some dude in charge of an energy commission who was the dude that has been pushing the CFL light bulbs.  WTF?   My recommendation is for you to give Allen West your job as speaker.  Please.

Michael Steele is Delusional

.
.


Dear Michael, You had less to do with the last election than the woodpecker out on my back porch grabbing a quickie with Mrs Woodpecker.

Americans came out and overwhelmingly voted against the communist dictator obama, the idiot clown Biden, and the democrat congress lead by the 7/8's dead looking milquetoast weasel bastard hairy reid and the one who is truly dumber than a headless hammer - nana pelosi.

You could have been collecting radioactive mushrooms on some fushia colored planet in the Vega system and things would have turned out Exactly the same.  Get a grip.

Just a Few Hitler Quotes for Today.

.
.
Hitler: "I know there are people who are so fired by their enthusiasm for the resurrection of Germany that they look upon me as a second Messiah. I must point out to all these good people, with the utmost humility, that I am not a Messiah. A genius, but not a Messiah."

Hitler: "You know, Goebbels, despite all our national 'Keep Fit' campaigns, some of our most talented singers have allowed themselves to become absurdly fat. It takes away half the joy of going to the opera. The German people will only reach the point of absolute racial superiority when Wagner's operas can be performed by all our singers completely naked."

Hitler: "I'll tell you one thing, gentlemen: when Stalin decided to attack Berlin, he made the most colossal mistake of his life. I assure you that in front of Berlin the Russians will suffer the bloodiest defeat in recorded history."

Hitler: "Love and devotion to a man are the highest virtues in a woman. Intelligence is not very important. My mother was certainly no genius, but she gave a great son to the German people."

Frank Capra Talks About Hitler, Let's Compare to Obama

.

"I saw that ("Triumph of the Will", Leni Reifenstahl's documentary film of the 1934 Nazi Party National Convention) and it scared the hell out of me. I went back to my little chair in my office... and I sat there, and I sat there, and I was a very unhappy man. How could I possibly top this? I could see that it promised superman stuff to them. I could see how the kids of Germany would go anyplace and die for this guy... So, how do I reach the kid down the street? The thought hit me: how did it reach me? THEY told me. So I said, 'Aha! Let's let them see only their stuff!'. We make nothing. We shoot nothing, but we use only their stuff as propaganda for ourselves. Let them see the guys - let them see these guys!"

Film Director Frank Capra, interview, A Walk Through The Twentieth Century with Bill Moyers, regarding his use of Nazi propaganda films in his masterpiece series of Allied propaganda films, Why We Fight.

And so it is how we should oppose obama and crew. With their own words and actions.
__________________________________________________________________________________

In that vein....

Hitler in 1933 "We will not lie and we will not cheat! I have therefore steadfastly resolved never to come before this people and speak cheap promises."

Nancy Pelosi - "When I became Speaker, I pledged we would have the most open Congress in history. Led by the innovation and enthusiasm of young people, Americans and Members of Congress are holding a running conversation - in real time."

Obama in his own words: (7 huge lies)




Who is it that sounds like Hitler ?

Liberal Intolerance

.

Yes, Liberal Intolerance. Hear It.

Translation:

A campaign speech from July 1932: "Our opponents accuse us National Socialists, and me in particular, of being intolerant and quarrelsome. They say that we don't want to work with other parties. They say the National Socialists are not German at all, because they refuse to work with other political parties. So is it typically German to have thirty parties? I have to admit one thing - these gentleman are quite right. We are intolerant. I have given myself one goal - to sweep these thirty political parties out of Germany. They mistake us for one of them. We have one aim, and we will follow it fanatically and ruthlessly to the grave."

Sound Familiar?

X-37B and the X-15 Space Plane. One is Much Older.

.
This post is mostly about the X-15, but I notice this little fellow in the news as well today.  It's a short read with a picture.

Anyway, on to the X-15. First the good stuff which is this video. As you can see, this fabulously beautiful air/spacecraft was carried aloft by another fabulously beautiful aircraft, the B-52, which after 60 years still causes knees to knock all over the enemy-sphere.  The X-15 itself flew from 1959 to 1968 and would achieve a height of 67 miles and speed of Mach 6.7.



The X-15 presentation lasts 6:10 and the rest of the video goes on to talk about the contributions leading up to landing on the moon, which are interesting also.

Notice the chase planes are F-104 Starfighters. The X-15 work contributed to every exceptional high speed aircraft used since, as well as the space shuttle of course.

Here are some more pictures, these first two are from the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum. They'll get bigger if you click on them.



The Pilots -  From Here
    The 12 pilots of NASA, the Air Force, Navy, and North American Aviation who flew in the program are listed in the order of their first flights, along with their total flight numbers.
      A. Scott Crossfleld, NAA, 14 flights 
      Joseph A. Walker, NASA, 25 flights 
      Robert M. White, USAF, 16 flights 
      Forrest S. Petersen, USN, 5 flights 
      John B. McKay, NASA, 29 flights 
      Robert A. Rushworth, USAF, 34 flights 
      Neil A. Armstrong, NASA, 7 flights 
      Joe H. Engle, USAF, 16 flights 
      Milton 0. Thompson, NASA, 14 flights 
      William J. Knight, USAF, 16 flights 
      William H. Dana, NASA, 16 flights 
      Michael J. Adams, USAF, 7 flights

Notice Neil Armstrong, the man to land first on the moon at Tranquility base.

This site is NASA's photo collection

Here are a few but many more are on the site.
Being towed into service..

Hanging on the B52 prior to launch.  What a ride..

 The cockpit reminds me of my first go cart that I built...


Neil Armstrong posing with the beauty after a test flight...


After engine failure caused pilot Jack McKay to land at Mud Lake, Nevada.  A Prang as the British would say.






None of the pilots were ever hurt, but a couple got itchy butts apparently....

Another Potential Mass Murder in a Gun Free Zone

.
.

What's this, 137 of them now since Columbine ?
Someone should have been in this school and have shot this kid dead by now.

UPDATE: 11/30/2010 - this link is no longer pointing to a valid page. Shocka !
(You know if it's actually "news", it shouldn't be legal to remove it once it's been presented. It could be updated, amended, and noted, but it should always be available in an archive. Otherwise it's little more than blabbering BS and should then be labeled as such, not as "news")


Oh, and in case they change the picture in the story, note the SWAT team guys hiding behind the fucking wall, totally Not ready to save anyone's life inside.



I'm really tired of this crap.  Gun Control. SIUYA.

Stories That Make Men Weep

.

As properly noted by one of the commentors at the bottom of this story. Blackfive had a similar story recently, but I'm afraid it was Whimpy Whombley and Whambley.

Notable, but not the kind of thing to put a lump in your throat and allow you to scream "I am America and We Are The Best !",  even though you, like I, had not a thing to do with the design or development of Kelly Johnson's SR-71 Blackbird.

Kelly Johnson also created the  feared P-38 Lightning of WWII and the F-104 Starfighter (dubbed The Man in the Missile), two of my most favorite fighters that hung from my bedroom ceiling in plastic form, as a pre-teenager.

Forget politics and economic systems; This is the excellence that is the spirit of America that is in the genes of people who came here on boats and carved out the greatest country on Earth, the founders of which gave their lives and those of their families in many cases to do so.  Before I get pissed off and go into some political rant, I'll stop here and just suggest your read The Thrill of Flying the SR-71 Blackbird

Embedded in the story is This Link to a shorter story of its prototype, also worth the read of you are an admirer of aircraft.

Ideas for Holiday Air Travel, or Air Travel in General and Fun With the TSA

.
.
We all know how fun loving the TSA is. Here are but a couple ideas to make your TSA molestation and/or X-ray bombardment scanning a treat for everyone.

  • Go in a Bikini. They won't let you go naked, or else that would even be better. If you're over the age of 60, the smaller the bikini the better.  Well, forget the age and let's just go with the smaller the better.  Maybe a temporary tatoo that says "Scan This" so that there's no confusion.  Those TSA folks are awfully stupid you know.  They go through less training than the person working the hash brown and french fry bin at your local McDonald's...

  • Make a cardboard cutout of a hand giving the finger, then glue aluminum foil to the cardboard and slip that mother in your back pocket(s).


  • Substitute a profile of Janet Napolitano, or your favorite Fascist in the Obama administration in your "giving the finger to the DHS/TSA Celebration".  Eric Holder perhaps, who is not only incompetent, he's freakin stupid and a racist besides.  (I'll spare us all and not include her image....)

  • For those who are traveling for work or similar and can't take a chance on being delayed, substitute your favorite Nazi symbol.  The Swastika perhaps.

  • Everyone go in a Burka and include all the stuff above !  Decorate yourself like a Christmas Tree !

And while we're talking, where in the hell is the ACLU on this mistreatment of Americans.   We know they love to get involved in that stuff right? Hello? knock knock?

Come On America, show those  filthy Muslim bastards and Fascists in the Obama administration that We have ideas too !

I'm sure many of you have even Better ideas.   We'd love to hear of them in the comments and the TSA folks would love to see them I'm sure !

Update: After a staggering number of requests, I've replaced the bikini picture with the current picture.

The Pinnacle of Incompetence - LANGUAGE

.
You know you can fly through Heathrow and not be treated like a criminal and the UK has had enhanced security requirements for a lot longer than we have.

The state of air travel in the USA has descended into absurdity if not cruel and inhumane practice . At the head of all this nonsense is Janet Napolitano She's a lawyer and probably not a good one since nothing is mentioned in regards to her legal career. No notable cases to bring to the surface.  She has no qualifications that lead to her position.  She is there because she is a tool for the Dems.

Governor of Arizona, Big Whup. Then appointed to head the DHS by the Racist Anti-American Imbecile Barak Obama.

Known for:

  • Banning travel to Mexico for all of 5 minutes, because of the swine flu, after which time someone called her and told her to shut the hell up, since 1.) Not her job, and 2.) Totally wrong anyway.
  • Proclaiming 'The System Worked', in regard to the idiot who had the bomb in his underwear that didn't go off.  What worked? He got on the plane And lit the thing.  The only thing that worked was the happenstance that the Muslim was incompetent.
  • Issuing a memo to beware of patriotic conservative right wing domestic terrorists, in particular those who love America so much, many of them spent their all in some hell hole fighting for America. wtf?
  • Every public statement she's made as head of DHS, someone had to call her and tell her to shut the fuck up.
  • Now, she has banned Toner Cartridges because of the fake bomb attempt from Yemen.  How many  more thousands of items will she need to focus on and write a memo about as the Muslims go through every item in the fucking dictionary that can be used to contain some destructive device or substance.
You couldn't find someone  in the gutter more incompetent that she is for this position. A position and an agency that should have never been created in the first place.  Along with the TSA - Those Standing Around imposing ridiculous absurdities on the American flying public.
I see in the news today a cancer survivor was forced to remove her prosthetic breast.  I remember a story where a woman was given a pair of pliers and told to remove her nipple rings before she could fly. Like she's going to take over an airplane full of passenger who wouldn't let her get past their seat on the way to the cockpit anyway. WTF?  This nonsense goes on all day long.  Most of the people working for the TSA are there because they couldn't get jobs elsewhere.

Let's not forget that people testing 'the system' routinely beat the system by getting bombs, hand grenades, and all manner of destructive items or substances past Those Standing Around.  So it's all for Nothing anyway.
Janet you are so incompetent you should resign.  Seriously.  Take obama with you.

This is a glimpse into the state of the health care system by the way, if that shit doesn't get repealed, since that bill is chock full of clauses about how minorities must be brought into the system.  In other words, people who would be there already if they were actually qualified for the fucking position.


So here we are, Once the greatest country ever, reduced to a laughing stock by a pack of mass murdering 3rd century Muslims, most of which since 9-11-2001 are almost as incompetent as the head of DHS.

We could scan all the luggage back to the stone age and put 2 Air Marshall's on each and every flight and still spend less than probably 1% of what the DHS and TSA cost us.

If it was funny, it would be hilarious, and to many assholes around the world it is funny.

America cannot stand for this bullshit, or soon it will be strip searches, blasted to the internet real time as the TSA people stand around laughing at us.  It really is a level close to Nazism.

And Bush was Hitler ?  They said that because they knew what this asshole and his puppet masters were going to be doing.  All of the things they accused Bush of, obama is guilty of in spades.  Not a coincidence.

Ok, back to working around the house..

Obama to Increase Exports to India

.
.
That's what the news stories say anyway. Really ? I sure don't think so.

A company in India is making a $2,500.00 car. Strike autos off the list. And you can use that as a common denominator (price factor) into every other product that will be mass purchased in India. So, what the hell can the USA make to sell to India. Defense weapons maybe. Porn movies, but that's all illegal over there I believe and they've got their own Hollywood industry there anyway. It's called Bollywood.

Here's an idea. Since India has been used to outsource the vast majority of phone technical support and software generation for a multitude of American companies, maybe we will export more jobs to India. I'd say that's about the only thing where exports are going to increase.

I saw one story that said obama gave them 10 billion. For what?

What a joke. Are there really people that buy this BS out there. Of course.

Seriously, Time to buy Gold, Or Anything in The Market For That Matter

.
.
May I refer you back to this September post

Ben Bernanke has committed to raising inflation. He has said very clearly when announcing the "Quantitative Easing" Program Part II on Wednesday (QE2) that starts with the Fed buying 600 billion of essentially currently valueless mortgage related paper from the banks who are holding this toxic waste between now and June. In short, he is Printing Money. He will continue to print money to achieve the inflation goal he has set out. He said this. It's not some "try to figure out what Alan Greenspan actually said" game. He says this very clearly. He wants you to know that your cash is trash.

If you have money in a mattress, it will be worth less and less until the ship turns around and that can easily be 10 years, estimated by people a lot smarter than me and who get paid to think about such things 24 hrs a day.

The dollar devalues because of more $100 bills flying out of the sky, and the market and pretty much anything priced in dollars goes up because it takes more dollars to buy the same bar of gold bullion, barrel of oil, share of IBM, whatever.

This has some simple effects with regard to spurring the economy. People make more money in the market and therefore have more money to spend. They spend it on products and services which queues businesses to hire people to handle the increasing demand, which generates more demand as well as tax revenue btw because of more paychecks being handed out each week.. Very simple really, and Ben has laid this out very specifically in these very terms. He has recently made the case to people like China, Japan, and other countries who have bought our treasuries (devaluing dollars) that it is in their best interest to chill while their investment in dollars declines because eventually a hot US economy will once again be the perfect place for them to sell their wares. Quite true.

All of these countries are and have been buying Gold as a way to minimize the current losses.

If China gets mad and revalues their yuan to increase the value of the dollar, Ben Bernanke will simple play Whack-A-Mole with them. it appears to be a can't lose game as long as the economy stays weak and unemployment if high.

Personally, I take this action and these statements to mean that I am a moron if I am not invested in assets that will only increase in value and keep my dollars at least somewhat even with inflation.

The market could take a temporary dive Monday or next week or next month, but in the overall short term - next year, and for years following the market is going up because the Federal Reserve is 100% committed to causing inflation by printing money to rectify the state of the economy. And remember the Dems had jack to do with it as they try to take credit for it whenever it does get better.

For what it's worth.

Good luck to all. Live Long and Prosper and all that stuff.

Alright, Who Got The Laurel and Hardy Handshake in the Subject Line of the Last Post?

.
.

So, now the Republicans and Tea Party Members should pass bill after bill after bill that Improves the business environment, and everything that makes things better for people in their daily lives - from soup to nuts, and send it up to obama to veto.  By the time 2012 comes along, obama will be the Party of No.

I think I read they are going to send up a repeal of obamacare on a weekly basis.  Cool.

So, here's the Laurel and Hardy handshake reference.

A Laurel, and Hearty Handshake to All the Non-Democrats Who Won in This Election



Nana ??

Now please get to work saving this country by pulling it back from the brink of the Abyss.

NO, we do Not want you reaching across the aisle !

NO, we do Not want you working with Democrats !

YES, we want you to repeal the HC bill and fix health care by throttling Frivolous Medical Lawsuits.  Make it so only Gross Negligence or Incompetence can result in monetary awards.

And Finally, will you Bug The Shit out of Obama, Reid, Frank, Pelosi, Boxer and the rest of the Gang of Evil Morons at every opportunity ? 

To the New Republican Governors, such as Governor Kasich of Ohio.  If you want to be successful, just do what Texas does.  They and Alaska are the only two states growing their economies.

Thank you. One of your 300 million Supervisors who love you and want you to succeed.

Update: 11/3 9:32 PM Allen West Acceptance Speech

Allen West Epitomizes what the Tea Party Should be about and hopefully Is.




Oh; and how does obama react to the election ? He's taking 5,000 people on a BILLION DOLLAR PLUS vacation through India and Indonesia. Are you ********* ******* *** ******* kidding me ?? Gee, I wonder what Keith Uber-Dork thinks about that..  Wait, don't tell me.

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!! Joe Biden, Idiot To The last

In a radio interview Tuesday afternoon, Biden reportedly told a WENZ in Cleveland, OH "Don't vote, or vote Republican" but Biden's aide says the VP did not mean for people to stay home on election day.

Legalize All Drugs

.
.
Especially since Alcohol is more dangerous than all the commonly known 'hard drugs'.

  • All drugs were legal prior to 1920.
  • Portugal decriminalized all drugs 8 years ago and have fewer drug addicts.
  • People who want to do drugs still do them anyway.
  • After 40 years of the 'war on drugs' any 13 year old can get crystal meth or ecstasy 8 days a week.
  • Drug trade fuels a huge crime industry.
  • Illegal drugs are more dangerous.
  • So what are we accomplishing ?
Btw - Is there an election going on ?

John Boehner Has to Go.

He offered to cross the aisle and compromise on the tax cuts, allowing the Dems to 'tax the rich'.  You know the people who sign our friggin paychecks.

He backs this pathetic Pledge to America like it is something worthwhile.

I heard him on Hannity radio driving home tonight.  He didn't answer questions anywhere near my satisfaction regards 'reaching across the aisle'.  In fact, he side-stepped them.

Sure, he's better than Pelosi.  A ball peen hammer is better than Pelosi.

He must go.  Though it won't happen this election, we need a conservative to run against him next election.

Election - 2010 - Hey, San Francisco !

.
Do you people really want to be associated with Nana Pelosi??

Nana "We have to pass the bill before we know what's in it" Pelosi ???
Nana "We must start using natural gas and get off of Fossil Fuels" Pelosi ???
Nana "100 freaking thousand dollars to stock the bar on her airplane" Pelosi ???
Nana "Stealing 100's of millions of tax dollars for her and her husbands business" Pelosi ???

But, All the politico steal you say. That's debatable, but Ok, back to the stupid then.

If Nancy Pelosi was up against a Hammer on Jeopardy, the hammer would win. Literally. The hammer would score zero and Nana would be deep into the minus numbers. She'd owe money at the end of the show.

Do you really want to be associated with that.  Vote another Dem in, just get rid of this embarrassment you have hung over yoursleves.

What an embarrassment to the black community.

Heard this dude on the radio. He won't answer any questions, just keeps repeating this over and over. Well, at one point he said he'd cut rent and sales taxes in half in New York. He didn't seem to know what Income taxes were so he had no response on that one.

I'd vote for the madam over this idiot.

Wow.

Watermelon in Easter Hay

.

Frank wrote the Joe's Garage album, which is somewhat of a musical biography, after finding out he had incurable prostate cancer.

This tune is a little repetitive, but after working on our kitchen floor all day outside of an early afternoon Dim Sum session, I find it pretty relaxing.  Maybe you'll enjoy it.

Following the last imaginary guitar solo, is a short interview with FZ





Off the wall?  I always thought he made perfect sense!  Seriously, anytime by brain wasn't feeling well, I'd toss on some FZ and all would be well. Still do. ;-)

Sarah Palin to Infinity and Beyond

I'm enjoying watching Sarah Palin doing the Exact things she needs to do to continue on her quest to help America, and secondarily - absolutely stuff it to the media crowd.  They have to be beside themselves.  No doubt they figured she would fade away with their having the last word.  Pissant, pathetic and adolescent as it was.

Going on FOX news was brilliant.

Now the reality show where the Palin's will display themselves as the outdoor normal healthy active fun loving epitome of an American family that they are, enjoying life in Alaska while putting Alaska on display at the same time.  These are the kinds of people I want in political power.  Not some dodo Biden who entered the Senate at 23 and knows as much about life in America for working people as a dead tree, or his butt buddy, the cold kadaver Hairy Reid, who has a similar story, though Hairy claims to have been a successful lawyer in the 2 years after leaving a 4 year college and entering politics. Ah, yea.

Anyway, I don't know who's idea it was.  I don't think the Republicans like her enough to put the effort in and I can't imagine the TV world coming up with the idea either, so I think it was hers, but I honestly don't know.  If it was Sarah's, again sheer brilliance.  Keep it coming Mrs Palin.   Drill Baby Drill !

I'm enjoying watching how it unfolds and sincerely hope Sarah gets a chance to help America in more ways than stumping for other politicians.  Personally, I'd like to see her as a Senator and go from there.

The View, OReilly, Joy and Whoopi

.I just gotta say a couple things.
  • Joy and Whoopi walked off their Own show.  Can you imagine a conservative or even an intelligent person walking off their own show for any reason ?
  • They walked off becuase the audience cheered when OReilly reminded them that 70% of Americans are against the mosque becuase it was Muslims that murdered 3000 people on 9-11.
  • Joy and Whoopi are on a show targeted at talking to Women.  One would assume they are extremely serious about Women's Rights.  I'm quite sure they are.
  • Their actions strongly suggest that they want to give the Muslims preferential treatment over Americans who are still in pain over 9-11-2001 and many of them who lost loved ones on that day.
  • Muslims treat women like dogs in the ME.  It is well known that women in Islam are 2nd class citizens actually below dogs.  10's of thousands of clitorectomies are performed in the Middle East every year on young Muslim girls.
It is quite clear that Joy and Whoopi acted like 3 year old spoiled brats, not even intelligent enough to counter Bill OReilly, and in a fit of incapacity to do anything else, they ran away.

They are for women's rights, yet they defer power to the very people who treat women with the least amount of respect anywhere on the planet.  It is clear that liberals do not have the capacity to connect two thoughts together in order to come to a rational conclusion about any freaking thing at all.

It is quite clear that their lives are simply a series of 'moments', where they decide on the spot, using only emotion, how they feel about any given subject and this is the method for which they come to 'conclusions'.  Never mind the 'conclusion' could be diametrically opposed to any other thought they have rolling around in their head or any conclusion they come to 15 seconds later. 

Finally, the more stupid they are, the more convinced they are geniuses, above the rest of us and perfect choices to rule over us.  These are the people ruling over us right now.

    The Media....

    .
    The Democrat Media are starting to go negative on obama now, because:
    • the dems have legislated just about every liberal wet dream they've had since lbj was in office
    • they are putting away ammo for a few years from now when they will come out and say they went negative on obama when they saw that 'he went too far' when still being criticized for not performing their stated but long time illusionary function of "Informing the People".
    It's meaningless. They could actually scream from the rooftops now "We're Sorry! We were wrong!  Vote out the obama in 2012.  Impeach the Bastid !" and it would still be meaningless. 
    They know a Republican  majority will be impotent as it always has in reversing course on any of their evil, so no large deal. After 4 or 8 years, they know they'll be in control again because, as they do with any Republican base of political power, they will beat it with a sledge hammer the entire time it is office - lying, insulting, and attacking it, until sufficient numbers of drooling ignorant liberals spurt forward to put the next dumbass communist puppet into the White House.

    They got what they wanted:

    • 2 racist homosexual extreme left communist women on the supreme court
    • afore mentioned legislation, all of which is packed with crap that they will implement anytime a bunch of dumb ass kids elect the bastards to political power again.
    Though it's certainly better than them still being  in the tank for the Democrats.

    State of The Globe. IMHO Of Course

    .
    .
    Greece fell apart. They still have huge unfunded liabilities.

    Ireland is falling apart as they nod their head with eyes wide saying "We're good, we're good!" Like that dude in Aliens who was about to have one of the little suckers come popping out his chest any second.

    As Fredd so eloquently states, they are all on thin ice and there aren't any growth factor escape routes. These are the only escape routes by the way. You can't spend your way to prosperity, you can only grow.

    The USA has federal and state and local unfunded pension programs. The money was stolen as in any decent Ponzai scheme.. The majority of the unions are unfunded. Other unions like the teachers union, who in New Jersey demand no layoffs, and 4.something percent pay raises - in this economy - working 9 months a year - and refuse to pay 750 a year to get Full Family coverage - medical, dental - vision.
    I'm sure you've seen this Chris Christie video.

    There are way too many people who are not getting it. And no one, who they listen to anyway, is telling them.

    The number of government workers has surpassed the number of private sector workers earlier this year in 2010. Government workers on average make 45% more than private sector employees And the benefits are Emerald City.

    The big companies who got bailouts are continuing to fail. I read where AIG, in order to get out from under the government's jack boot bail out needs to come up with 130 billion dollars. Their business, sliced and diced is worth maybe 30 billion. They recently converted their preferred stock to common stock which net - dilutes their common stock 12%, (read: If you're a stock holder, the dollar bill in your pocket which was worth 1.00 2 seconds ago, is now worth 88 cents.) And the stock rocketed 5% today on the "news" that AIG is going to work itself out from under the governments jack boot. People aren't getting it and don't even have the mental tools to let them get it.

    The banks are all still fragile and continue to refuse to lend, in favor of building their cash and other balance sheet reserves instead.

    Mortgage holders which have failed over the last 2.5 years or so because of sub prime mortgages and over-priced houses, continue to fail after making new deals and even having principle forgiven because of the home prices falling off a cliff. (Home prices were a bubble created by artificially low credit standards generated wholly by the democrats and helped along by Greenspan's lowering of Fed rates to try and steer out of the Tech bubble of 2000. More or less.)

    Mortgage rate resets are actually increasing through 2011 and there will be a lot more Repo's.

    Holders of repossessed property such as banks and others, have taken the property off the market so as to avoid flooding the housing market with inventory. Especially homes over 300k. 

    Home builders continue to build homes in an effort to avoid shutting their doors and releasing their employees.

    There will be Excess supply for a long long time.


    The job market continues to shed 450,000 jobs a month give or take 10k. These are people who companies have held on to for 2 years waiting for recovery, not the deadwood that was let go the first 6 months or so, and have thrown in the towel to whatever extent.

    In my humble opinion, many people and countries are in serious denial. This is stage one of the Denial, Anger, Depression, Acceptance path. (I'm angry, so I'm like 1 step ahead)

    I don't believe this talk of recovery. Remember Gentle Ben Bernanke and Hilarious Hanky Paulson told us "Sub Prime was well contained" back in late 2007 when the music stopped and everyone started scrambling for seats.

    European states are all starting to expose their weaknesses as one after the other is forced to cry uncle. All are desperately trying to debase (lower the value of) their currency, so that buying from them appears more attractive since it takes less Euros, or Rubbles, or Yuan or whatever to buy the same thing as it did yesterday. Here's a Chart of the American Dollar It's falling off a cliff.

    There isn't enough money to bail everyone out is there ? I don't think so.  This is going to get a lot worse before it gets better.  In my opinion of course, and based on what I read from people who have good track records for exposing reality ahead of time.

    Well, a smart man I read every day says "Never run scared". Good advice. Don't run scared and freak out, but put some thought into how you're going to try and protect yourself from inflation. Get some advice from someone who speaks reality. Like you call a financial advisor and he tells you the recession ended June 2009, like the news/government just announced recently, so it's time to "Jump In" - hang up.

    I'm doing it with gold mining stocks, and as some have pointed out, trading is dangerous and it is, and as well, there is always the risk the government will impose severe penalties against individuals, like extra taxes on gold related transactions, or as they did back in the 30's when they confiscated the gold from people in exchange for paper money.

    Silver is also a good investment right now, though it's had a good run, so you might let it cool off a bit.

    Inflation is what robs you of your wealth more than anything else.

    The dollar has declined in value in excess of 90% since 1913. If your grand parents left you a mattress full of money in their will, you only got less than 10 % of it's value. And the government will steal a bunch of that beside.

    Sorry for the downer.  Sorry if I've insulted anyone's intelligence, or tried to sound like a wise owl.  I just see a Lot of denial out there and wanted to put something in black and white.  FWIW as it were.

    On the other side, America did come out of the great depression.   The stock market, after fits and starts, finally reached a new high - in comparison to the high in 1929- and stayed above that mark, in 1950.  So, 21 years. And from the bottom in 1933, the market did climb more or less up each year to that point through some of the 30's and certainly the 40's.  This is a different situation and different things will happen, but at some point, investing in traditional things like business (unless we go commie) will provide incredible opportunities.  So there's that.

    The smart man I read says the leaders on the B side of this ride won't be the same as those on the A side, so find some sources of information to help ferret these out.  Minyanville is a decent resource.  On the right sidebar as 'Good Info Yo'.

    Republican Pledge to America - Worthless Lip Service

    .
    Here's a link to what I read on it.

    It was written by 3 congressmen. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I don't see anywhere that all the Republicans have said "Yes we will do or die, stick a million needles in my eye"...

    It is too unspecific anyway. It's like they listened to right wing talk radio, filled it with talking points and simply said "We are going to correct these issues".

    Worthless, unspecific, and hardly binding even if you squint your eyes and take some drugs. About as valuable as Pelosi talking about how the new Congress was going to be ethical, bipartisan, and operate with some class or some such nonsense.

    Regards Health Care, you can't repeal and replace it without fixing the problem which is frivolous lawsuits, and they say nothing about throttling lawyers.

    The Fed is not controlled by Congress therefore they have little power to stop Gentle Ben's money printing. So, fine - stop TARP for example. Ah, so what, big deal, Too Late !

    It is too unspecific, did I mention that? The whole thing reads like your teenage drug using son that promises to stop all the bad stuff if you just loan him the Caddy for tonight's date. Try again Republicans. Try, try again.

    It does not even promise that Republicans will not take earmarks (Stolen Tax Money) until the problems have had some serous fixage - or even any other stipulation.

    I see it as business as usual. I see it as worse than that actually. I see it as their version of Pelosi's pathological ramblings about draining the swamp and all that other nonsense.

    As an aside, they are promoting it by also encouraging people to "Buy Their Book" Young Guns. Ah, No thanks. You want to get my attention, start a blog and lay it down for people to read for free. Especially since you sat idly by the first 6 years of the Bush term and did Jack Shit about anything.

    And maybe it's me, but while the government is ramming a telephone pole up my rear, I'm not inclined to buy people's books detailing the process in every gory detail. Who would do that? I'm getting screwed and everybody wants me to send them money like that will have some effect on the problem ??? Count me out. Plus, I can easily come to my own conclusions.

    (By the way, I'm writing a book about all this..kidding)

    Try again Republicans.

    In the meantime, I (and I hope 'we') will continue to look to replace you weak worthless liberals with red tags on your ears with Tea Party (as they call themselves) Conservatives.

    As I commented to Fredd in a recent comment section, I hope people will retain their focus for about another 6 years at least, because it's going to take at least that long to build a stable of conservative government and even longer for the magical effects of private enterprise capitalistic growth to be seen by the populace.

    Hey Democrat Politicians

    Tell Us How You're Going to Solve the Current Problems. Economy. Unemployment. Tell us How and Why You are Better Choices. And while you're at it, explain why there has been negative progress on all fronts the entire time you've been in power.

    And don't give us this bullshit about Republicans standing in the way. Not a one voted for the [non]health care bill you rammed up our ass, but it went through anyway didn't it.

    And Voters, My God people, stop acting like sluts watching and howling like monkeys at people spending trillions of your tax dollars, and all they can come up with during any campaign is insult the other side while accomplishing nothing on the real problems facing this country. It's embarrassing living in the same country with you adolescent assholes.

    The Reason You Continue Hearing About Global Everything.

    .
    Most other countries are socialist or just plain suck ass environments. But concentrating on Socialist countries, we need simply recognize that socialism drains its host body like a parasite on steroids.

    As the host body becomes empty and dysfunctional, (England, France, Greece, Hell-the European Union), the parasite frantically searches for another healthy(well) host body to invade. That would be the USA.

    This is all they want. They have spent all the tax revenue they could possibly hope to collect, and like drug addicts, they are frantically searching for one more fix.

    The USA is the last fix. If they drag us down, there will be chaos. There will be mediocrity at best and more likely rampant incompetence, apathy, non-service and class, race, and gender wars to make you wish you were never born.

    For God's Sake, don't let them disarm you besides.

    Inflation - Time to Seriously Think About Gold and Silver Investments

    Mainly because gold has recently 'broken out' over the 1265ish level it has attacked three times prior and been turned away. If it's not a fake breakout, and it doesn't appear to be, then gold is going higher.

    Silver has also had quite a move recently. Historically, silver is very low priced compared to gold, indicating that silver needs to rise or gold needs to fall to revert to historic norms. I don't believe gold is going to fall with all the money printing that has occurred and will occur as the economy gets worse. Mortgage rate resets and their associated repo's are going to accelerate through 2011.

    I'm not going to put in a bunch of charts or 8X10 glossies to try to make a case, because no one is going to start investing in Gold based on this post. But if you're thinking about it, consider this just one more light in the forest. Minyanville is also a good source of all over market info. It's on my right sidebar as Good Info Yo.

    I personally have been trading GSS and UXG as both junior gold miners have good track records for performance and stock price action. I know other people are buying physical gold and silver. One thought to consider on silver is buying poor condition silver coins just for the silver content value. Though 'collectibles' are taxed at a higher rate when you sell, which is why I do the junior gold miners. Gold investments all move like a school of fish, so whether you have coins or gold miner stocks, you're making money when it goes up.

    Well, Finally on the subject....


    Notice all the Freemason symbols in the video..

    Oh, and contrary to some blowhards spouting off, gold is No Where near being in a bubble yet. Bubbles look like Mt Everest on a chart. Gold charts still only look like the foothills, even when compared to its rise in the late 70's that Jackie Onassis famously got rich on.

    Politics

    .
    Too many republicans have gotten caught up in politics, and the 'game of marketing themselves to voters'.

    Here's my advice to you. Recognize that the country is in the shitter and convince us you will devote yourself to returning this country to a capitalist-private sector growth centric vibrant country and you will have our votes. You will have enough votes. Screw the worthless bastards who want free houses or want you to 'reach across the aisle to communists' because they are dumbasses. Let them live in the ditch alongside the road while the rest us get busy and make this country the shining city on the hill again.

    And if you can't get enough votes working for Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness, then it's not worth a damn anyway.
