When you've got nothing better to do, check out this article from Western Horseman by an autistic Ph.D. who tells how she thinks like an animal. Do I understand it? Neigh.

Incompetence and legalized theft

Here's an outstanding article from the Wall Street Journal which explains how congress is almost entirely responsible for the current high gas prices.

Some truths seem truer than others

A few years back humorist Dave Barry created a list of observations which he titled Twenty-five things it took me over 50 years to learn. Here's a taste..."They can hold all the peace talks they want, but there will never be peace in the Middle East. Billions of years from now, when Earth is hurtling toward the Sun and there is nothing left alive on the planet except a few microorganisms, the microorganisms living in the Middle East will be bitter enemies."

I don't know if this is authentic, I just wish I had thought of it.

Spike Lee: Another Offended Negro

Negro filmmaker Spike Lee is upset because Clint Eastwood's movie "Flags of Our Fathers" failed to represent any of the 900 black Marines who took part in the invasion of Iwo Jima. This is in no way surprising or new, since the deeply offended Negro is a constant fixture of modern America. Let's take a second to look at what is bothering Mr. Lee.

Approximately 30,000 Marines took part in the invasion of Iwo Jima. As we know 900 of them were black. If you do the math you will see that this equals 3%. So Mr. Lee is upset because a group that represents a tiny fraction of the whole, was not mentioned. In my mind this begs several questions. What about red haired Marines, were they fairly represented? What about left handed Marines? What about Marines with speech impediments, bowed legs, or third nipples? If Mr. Lee is right and the Negros have a legitimate reason to feel slighted, then so do all the other minorities that I mentioned.

It is probably a good thing that Clint Eastwood is getting old and his movie making days are numbered, otherwise the insensitive old bigot would probably go on to offend everybody in the world.

It's the government, stupid

Achtung, I'm scared

Not so long ago the German military was the most feared and lethal force the world had ever known. Now, according this article from Der Spiegel, the Germans would be more help in the war on terror if they would just get out of the way.

AWWWW

These are my grandkids, but you knew that already, because kids this cute would have to be kin to me. Their silly parents like to take credit but it's obvious that they got the adorable gene from me. Number 6 is currently still in the oven and pictures of him resemble a ManBearPig viewed through a dirty aquarium. You can bet that when he gets here I will share his Archduke-like adorableness with you.

Notice: Any comments by the parents of these children attempting to deny the existence of the Archduke adorable gene will be deleted and may be subject to further legal action.

Barack Obama packs them in...sometimes

The media were all atwitter yesterday when reporting about the whopping 75,000 granola eaters who gathered in Portland to worship the ebony Messiah. What they weren't so atwitter about was reporting that many of those were likely there just to see the heavily promoted free concert by the popular regional band, The Decemberists. But hey, why let a pertinent fact or two get in the way of promoting the chosen one?

This reminds me of a few weeks ago when his holiness only drew about 12 members of his cult to a rally in North Carolina. Of course the paucity of devotees was never mentioned and on television the crowd appeared much larger. Fortunately, Mary Katharine Ham of Fox News fame was there to capture the moment in pictures.

No Tears For Senator Kennedy

There is a lot of crying going on lately when the subject of Ted Kennedy (D-riving drunk) comes up. Lots of politicians are dabbing at their eyes while they expound on what a great man he is. I personally don't have any tears for him, if I were going to cry about anything concerning this man it would be either the 45yrs of horrible legislation he is responsible for, or the 28yr old girl he drove into the water and left to die.

Senator Kennedy has consistently been on the wrong side of every major issue to confront our country. That, in and of itself, isn't anything all that extrordinary since loony left wing politicians are a dime a dozen, however he didn't stop there. Ted Kennedy (D-ate rapist), the most notorious drunken philanderer in a town full of drunken philanderers, somehow always managed to manuever himself into position to impede the progress of good people, like Robert Bork among others.

Then there is the sad story of Miss Kopechne's final moments. Driven into the water by a drunken, married, Kennedy and the left to drown while he saved himself and ran to a house to call his lawyer. To the Senator, sobering up and getting a head start on the spin process were more important than her life. If he dies tomorrow he will have had 40 more years than she did.

The irony of this situation isn't that he is finally paying the piper for what he did to Miss Kopechne, hell everybody dies eventually. The irony is that he is dying of a malignant tumor in his brain when he has been a malignant tumor in the brain of America for the last four and a half decades.

I hate to be so distrustful

Is it just me or does anybody else suspect that Killer Kennedy's seizure is about to be used for a political statement? What statement you may ask? Why the "Kennedy is old, he could die anytime, ergo, McCain is a walking time bomb so should we really elect someone so close to death" ploy. I see Kennedy or his spokesman saying that Ted fought the good fight for his people but he really is and has been for some time, past the age of serving in such an important position. I know this view is very cynical but what is it about the left that makes anyone think they aren't capable of such dirty pool? Stay tuned for further developments.

Political Correctness in da house

For the past five years my eldest daughter, Lady Selfish, has worked as a cashier for a large national discount store. This afternoon she told me about a new policy that has just been implemented at her workplace.

As is common in retail outlets, merchandise has a way of winding up in the wrong place. For example, because they are rude, thoughtless idiots a customer may pick up a football in the sporting goods department and after deciding against the purchase, leave it in housewares. In this company these out of place items are referred to, quite appropriately, as foreign. Yeah, you guessed it. Apparently someone within the company has complained that using the word foreign is offensive, so now the new term for goods that are not where they belong is re-shop. That--the taking offense at such a benign term and the overreaction to it--is a perfect example of the hyper-sensitive, perpetually offended, politically correct world the left has created.

White American Fear

When I was young, back in the '70's and '80's, the word most used by the leftists to describe conservatives was greedy. The Vietnam war was all about greed, any action taken in the middle east was all about greed, fighting(and eventually defeating) the Soviet communists was all about greed. You get the idea. The leftist's contention was that financial gain was the only motivator for the Conservative. They screeched from every rooftop that white Americans would enslave any minority, murder any peace loving people, sell any Grandmother(including their own) if there was a profit in it. The fact that there are millions of middle and lower middle class Republicans rendered this claim idiotic but of course that didn't stop the screeching. Over the years we got used to it and learned to ignore it much like the annoying hum of an old kitchen appliance.

It would appear, that lately, one of them stopped spewing venom long enough to realize that calling us greedy wasn't infuriating us the way they wanted. This is proof, by the way that, the screaming snot slinging, radical letfist CAN learn, but like an inbred child who grew up on a steady diet of lead based paint chips, it takes them longer. So they changed words. Make no mistake, we conservatives are still greedy but now what we mainly are is... wait for it....SCARED!

That's right, according to the grass eaters on the left, white American Conservatives are scared of almost everything. We are afraid of negroes, we are afraid of illegal aliens, we are afraid of muslims, we are afraid of homosexuals, and communists, and strong(abrasive) women, and public vulgarity, and drugs, and body odor, and bad breath, and... wait a minute I just noticed that all the things we are supposedly afraid of are things that they embrace and/or worship. Interesting.

Anyway back to my point. While I realize that this is just more baseless, childish name calling, I feel the need to address it, once. Although I am a white American Conservative, I speak only for myself when I say that I am not afraid of negroes. I'm tired of them. Tired of their shameless whining and bitching, tired of the inordinant amount of crime they commit, and tired of watching serious and important people pander to them. I am not afraid of illegal aliens, not afraid just tired. Tired of hordes of unwashed, uneducated, unhealthy, surly squalids pouring into my country illegally in an attempt to turn it into a third world cesspool remeniscient of the one they are fleeing. Same with the muslims and communists, no fear just tired disgust. These two groups have proven time and time again that the things they bring to the table are vile and unwanted by civilized people. It's long past time for us to stop tiptoeing around and come down on them like Thor's Hammer, once and for all. As far as homosexuals and strong(abrasive) women go, I'm not scared of them and I don't hate them, I just want them to shut up. Please?

Michael Moore's crockumentary, "Bowling for Columbine" is an example of the left's attempts to portray the least fearful group of Americans as dangerously scared crazies. His assertion that gun owners and concealed carry permit holders have weapons because they are irrationally afraid of crime, is like saying that anyone with a spare in their car is irrationally afraid of flat tires. When you think about it, it's almost funny, in a sad depressing sort of way.

In the big scheme of things, like the old kitchen appliance that's hum has changed pitch just enough to be annoying again, we will soon learn to give the left's new word for us all the attention it deserves.

His peace loving Obamaness

Our future president is going to solve America's international problems with an age old and proven technique, he is going to talk to our enemies. What wisdom! The good news is that the people who want us dead (see muslim) will change their ways and views due to this brilliant ploy! No more war! No more tension! No more enemy! My heart is filled to the brim with love for this sage of sages! Stupid, imperialist George should've thought of this years ago. He and Saddam could've shared some tea and biscuits, partook of the Harem, and worked out a great deal for both teams. Stupid stupid George. Luckily the vastly experienced in world policy Obamaman will take clean up the mess of poor stupid George. Wow times are about to be good! My hope has been rekindled! Oh and more good news is, all of the American hating peoples ( see islam) is pulling for him too! I even bet those wiley old Chinese, Russians, and Koreans from the north are pulling for him too. With all that love from our future allies how could anything go wrong?


Hopeful me

Overly Ambitious Mud People

It saddens me to try to imagine an America without millions of our undocumented brown brothers from south of the border. I mean really, without them our wives and daughters might never get the chance to walk down a street and experience the cultural diversity that the fine fellows in the above photographs have to share. If you, like me, want to learn how you can help make sure that cultural ambassadors like those above end up on EVERY street corner in America, then go here, these folks will educate you.

Shoes fit for a King

My cool quotient is already so high that I was reluctant to do this post. Didn't want to seem all braggy and stuff. But I got over that.

These super cool custom Reebok NFL licensed Dallas Cowboy sporty sport shoes were delivered to my door this morning for no other reason than I live. They were a gift from my little brother who works for a national sporting goods concern. Check 'em out. They even have my name sewn onto the heel--which I scratched out of the photo--as extra proof of my coolness.

Bill O'Reilly throws fit - King Selfish giggles

O'Reilly constantly reminds his viewers that he's looking out for the folks. After watching this minute and a half video in which he turns into a screechy wad of angry estrogen, I take it that by folks he means people who don't work with him. Cheese ball.

Tolstoy pegs Al Gore and his global warming minions

“I know that most men, including those at ease with problems of the greatest complexity, can seldom accept even the simplest and most obvious truth if it be such as would oblige them to admit the falsity of conclusions which they delighted in explaining to colleagues, which they have proudly taught to others, and which they have woven, thread by thread, into the fabric of their lives.”

Muslim Father Speaks - Daughter Still Dead

A couple of weeks ago we brought you the story of the 17 year old Iraqi girl who made the fatal mistake of falling in love with a British soldier and was subsequently stomped, choked and stabbed to death by her Muslim father. Well, not entirely by her father. Loath to miss out on the fun and excitement of snuffing out the life of their beloved sister, her two brothers chipped in until she was good and dead. Boys will be boys.

Now that things have settled down a bit and he has recovered from his two hours of incarceration, our Islamic father of the year has given an interview in which he tells us his only regret is that he didn't kill his vile daughter at birth. Surreal.

John McCain still Sucks

Make no mistake, I believe that McCain is the lesser of the three evils from which we get to choose. Still, I am dismayed at how poor a choice he is. He is against drilling for American oil in places where a lot of that oil happens to be. He believes in man made global warming and intends to take action in that regard. He is an illegal alien sympathizer and intends to take action in that regard. He is against making moHAMmed's murderous minions uncomfortable in order to extract information that will save Americans and their allies. And while he doesn't like to talk about it, he snuggles up to some vile leftists on issues like unilateral personal disarmament. Just saying these things about the REPUBLICAN candidate for President makes me "throw up a little in my mouth".

Things are going to get ugly in the general election. The far left will attack McCain as a phony hero, and they will be correct. Good, conservative republicans will be forced to defend his indefensable claim to the title of hero. The lefties will use his own admissions to breaking the Military Code of Conduct and accepting special treatment, against him. They will quote the words of men of higher rank and longer captivity who don't believe his claims of torture. They will trot out many North Vietnamese who will recount ALL of the preferential treatment he recieved as an Admiral's son. And finally,surely, someone will point out the idiocy of his claim to have refused early release in order to foil the communist propaganda coup. Since when does a PRISONER dictate to his CAPTORS? How does that work? And why aren't prisoners all over the world doing it? The fact is, if the NVA had wanted to release McCain they would have and he couldn't have stopped them. This particular lie is an insult to our intelligence. Am I the only one who sees this? Hello, is anybody there?

As I've said before, I admire and appreciate John McCain's service and his suffering. But I despise his claim to be something that he is not. Heroes are not mythical creatures, they exist and there are many of them among us. Unfortunately and despite his claims to the contrary, the Republican nominee is not one of them.

He did it again

Can you believe that that old devil, George W. once again allowed or ,better yet, caused another natural disaster that killed lots of people. He did absolutely nothing to prevent, warn or relocate the Myanmar people from the devastation of that massive typhoon. First his global warming policies CAUSED the storm, then his total apathy for humanity allowed so many to perish. It may be worse than that tsunami he caused a few years ago. Damn you George Bush, damn you.


The absent one

In a Nutshell

War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things; the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse.

A man who has nothing for which he is willing to fight; nothing he cares about more than his own personal safety; is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free, unless made and kept so by the exertions of men better than himself.

So True

How will you die?

He who must not be named has created an interesting post about the odds of an American dying of a particular cause. I've never been all that good at analysis but if I understand the numbers, to give yourself the best chance of living to a ripe old age, stay away from automobiles and buy a gun.

Tales of the Reconquista

Thousands of hispanics converged on Seattle a couple of days ago. I'm not sure why, but my guess is that an image of the Virgin Mary appeared in someone's toilet. Whatever the reason, while they were all gathered together they decided to have themselves an Immigration March. Good times. If you like to read inspiring protest signs go here and knock yourself out.

I may have to rethink my opposition to illegal immigration after this. After all, mexicans will spell words that Americans won't.

P.S. One of the signs confused me. You'll know it when you see it.
