Wasted...a Perfect Chance to Whack More Islamic Troublemakers

Hundreds Turn Out for Funeral of Imam Killed During FBI Raid

Saturday, October 31, 2009

DETROIT — Hundreds of people offered hushed prayers Saturday at the funeral for a slain Detroit mosque leader while authorities across the border in Canada made the final two arrests in a criminal case that is stirring some anger in the Muslim community.

We couldn't just set off an IED, as they do to our troops in AFG and Iraq?

Bastards.

The NEW Health Care Bill

Here's the new bill from Max Baucus. It's 1,502 pages long. That's not a misprint.

How long will they give themselves to read it?

Un-freaking-believable.

More Tax Dollars at Work

I feel sorry for highway flagmen. Even though they perform a needed job, the fact that they just stand around gives the impression that they're not doing anything. I know -- it's not right, but that's the way it is.

On the other hand, when my tax dollars are used to wipe out terrorists...I love it.

With Big, Pointy Teeth...


TIM: Well, It's got huge ... very sharp ... it can jump a... look at the bones.

ARTHUR: Go on, Bors, chop its head off.

BORS: Right. Silly little bleeder. One rabbit stew coming up.

This is what the left gives us for "clean" energy.

Heating plant in Sweden burning rabbits killed in city parks to warm homes

Thousands of rabbits taken from Stockholm parks are being used to fuel a heating plant in Sweden, London's Daily Telegraph reported - and animal rights’ activists are hopping mad.

The frozen bunny corpses are transported to a heating plant in central Sweden, where they're incinerated to heat homes.

Couldn't we at least have a nice sauce? Or a shrubbery?

God help us.

Keeping Abreast of the Threats of Sharia Law

Mark Steyn has a story over on NRO about this DailyMail story:
A hardline Islamist group in Somalia has begun publicly whipping women for wearing bras that they claim violate Islam as they are 'deceptive'.

The insurgent group Al Shabaab has sent gunmen into the streets of Mogadishu to round up any women who appear to have a firm bust, residents claimed yesterday.

The women are then inspected to see if the firmness is natural, or if it is the result of wearing a bra. If they are found wearing a bra, they are ordered to remove it and shake their breasts, residents said...

'Al Shabaab forced us to wear their type of full veil and now they order us to shake our breasts,' a resident, Halima, told Reuters, adding that her daughters had been whipped on Thursday.

'They are now saying that breasts should be firm naturally, or just flat.'
Brilliant!!! Where were these guys when I was in high school? They could have enlisted every football player to accept sharia if we could have been empowered to say to our girlfriends, "Trust me honey. I just have to take a peek to make sure you don't have a bra on. Ok, now shake em."

I dated the daughter of a pro football assistant coach when we were in high school. He actually liked me...but what do you think would have been his reaction if he knew that I'd be, ah, "inspecting" his daughter's breasts? I suspect the defensive line would have pounded me into mush.

You just can't make this stuff up.

Now THIS is What My Tax Dollars are FOR

By God, I think I'll "forget" a deduction this year.

This is how I want my tax dollars used. Blow these bastards to their virgins.

More Spending, Less Work

Here's a great (well, informative anyway) chart regarding the coincidence of Obama deficit spending and the unemployment rate. Now, as we all know, just because 2 sets of data move together does not mean they affect each other. Just because temperatures go down at night when the sun goes down does not mean that the temperature reduction causes darkness. I should know about this...I was an economics major in college. Ahem. So here's the chart:

What do you think? Me? Well, I think that tax cuts for businesses and individuals would raise employment (if your company's taxes went down, you'd have more money to hire a few more workers). You wouldn't think that last statement was controversial. (Would you?) But liberals have labeled it "trickle-down economics" and say it doesn't work.

It does work. I'll tell you one thing...those lines in the chart above should scare the crap outta Democrats who are thinking about another "stimulus" plan. How does that first stimulus look like it's working for ya?

And just who is going to pay off those deficits? (Hint: Inflation)

Screw Apple -- and Nike, PG&E and Exelon


Honestly, I don't have a problem if someone is stupid enough to believe in global warming. I mean, we don't put folks in jail for believing in UFO's or the Loch Ness Monster or...whatever.

But for a company -- a company -- to come out in favor of a tax increase and a change (not for the good) in the living standards of Americans...well, that's un-American. These guys can kiss my fat rear end. I guarantee you one thing - they'll never get another dollar from me.

In a letter to Thomas J. Donohue, president and CEO of the Chamber of Commerce, Apple’s vice president of worldwide government affairs, Catherine Novelli said: “Apple supports regulating greenhouse gas emissions (emphasis mine), and it is frustrating to find the Chamber at odds with us in this effort.”

Novelli is referring to the Chamber’s recent opposition to the Waxman-Markey bill, a resolution “to create clean energy jobs, achieve energy independence, reduce global warming pollution and transition to a clean energy economy.”

The Washington Post says that the Chamber has become one of the biggest opponents of emissions-reducing legislation. Donohue issued a statement last week about the bill, saying: “It is neither comprehensive nor international” and it “would almost certainly spur retaliation from global trading partners.”

Apple subsequently resigned from the Chamber, “effective immediately.” Three other companies have left the Chamber because of its position on climate policy; Pacific Gas and Electric, PNM Resources, and Exelon. Nike also relinquished its position on the board, but not its membership.
Nike? Nike? FFS people. Just make the damn shoes...we'll decide who to run over with them.

Swoosh this, Phil.

Obama Bans Texting While Driving for Gov't Employees

I know...why doesn't he just ban nuclear weapons?Click Here

Obama Bans Government Employees From Driving While Texting

An executive order from President Obama bans all government employees—including soldiers and postal workers—from texting while driving if they're working, driving one of Uncle Sam's cars or using one of his cellphones. Meaning we're all next.

Obama Fails Chicago -- and the Country


Here's what CNN says about failing to get the Olympics in Chicago (emphasis mine):

"Although the White House says the trip was the right thing to do, some Republicans say it will have some consequences for the president...White House senior adviser David Axelrod said that although the results were "disappointing," Obama did the best he could."

Here's my comment: CNN says (above) that "some Republicans say...". How about the entire country says "Obama is a freaking idiot, and he wasted how much money on this trip?" Seriously, how much did it cost? What was the carbon footprint?

And freaking Jessie Jackson wants to know what happened. Dirtbag.

Kiss my ass, President Obama. Support the troops in Iraq and Afghanistan.

GOLF

About to participate in a 30th anniversary golf tourney. A bunch of us from college are getting together in Central Texas to drink, play golf, drink, tell old stories, and drink. Oh yeah...steaks, too. Our poor wives are joining us. They'll be sorry.

I'll post some pictures and a few stories (with the names changed to protect the guilty) through the weekend.

Toad, Tutti, god, Dad, Prez, Dewey...I don't even have to make up names...those were our nicknames.

We're only missing Mouth and The Horn...but that's a whole 'nuther story.
