Kate Schori, Call Your Office.

Yet another union to champion that'll pack the pews.  Just like all that gay marriage stuff has done.

In Character.

Seven years to the day after Katrina, as Isaac approaches our Governor Bobby Jindal rises to the occasion; while FEMA and Team Hopenchange do not. 

Tell me again why I should trust the bozos with my health care...?

An Update To That Oft-Repeated Mantra Of The Politically-Correct Eco-Tourist.

"Take nothing but pictures; leave nothing but... bear skat."

Offer Nature the chance to return you to the biomass, as this guy did, and Nature will take it. Duh.

All you trendy, thoughtful urbanites who want us to"live in harmony" with Nature, know this:  As beautiful and magnificent a creation as it is - and as much as I love to be out in it - Nature has zero interest in living in harmony with us.  Nature is a very, very dangerous place, and is constantly looking for any opportunity to do us in.  Without our unique ability as homo sapiens to change that equation, it would, too.

Our ancient ancestor's lives weren't a harmonious time of peace and plenty within Nature's balance.  They lived at the whim of Nature's forces, and their lives were nasty, brutish, and very, very short because of it.  That's the "natural" state of existence.  It only changed when we had enough of that, thank you very much, began to tell Nature to "piss off" - to defeat Nature's threats, to take dominion over our lives, and to change our environment to suit us.  

Nature is not some big, green, benign theme park.  If you are travelling in grizzly country, "Take nothing smaller than a .357; leave with nothing but your skin."

Born To Be Mild.

Obama and Comrades kill off one of the great icons of American prowess and freedom.  For our own good, of course.  We must become the dependent, urbanite metrosexuals they they, in their expertise, have deemed is our future.

It sure as hell won't be mine.

Today's Required Reading.

Right here.  It's P. J. O'Rourke, so you know it will be worthwhile.

Whoa.

How mad is the productive half of America at The Anointed One?  This is the #1 movie in America today:



Unlike the Clintons, who were mature enough politically to grok the 1994 mid-terms and react accordingly, Team Hopenchange has myopically ignored the results of the 2010 mid-term elections - and I think they are about to pay the price.

First Chick-Fil-A Appreciation Day, now this.  Barring success of a widespread effort by The Left / Mainstream Media to cast doubt on election results, or Eric Holder being successful in his crusade to use our Justice Department to open up the voting rolls to fraud and intimidation, Obama and Comrades will soon be looking for someone else's lives to run other than ours.

Dan Quayle, Call Your Office.

We've known for three-plus years you weren't the biggest idiot to occupy the Vice-President's Office, but it seems you are also smarter than the Most-Intelligent-Man-To-Ever-Hold-The-Highest-Office-In-The-Land.

They Got One!

The Left / Mainstream Media finally has a mass shooting triggerman that fits their 'Right-Wingers-And-Guns-Are-A-Violent-Threat' narrative. 

But, as usual, they're wrong.  Nazis aren't "Right-Wing".  They're socialists.  Conservatives oppose National Socialism as much as we oppose the other extreme of that political cancer - Marxist-Leninist-Obamaist Socialism.  Second, conservatives don't think any race is 'supreme'; that's silly and irrational. We think certain ideas - like freedom, and the rule of law - are supreme.  Big difference.

Today's SQUIRREL!

Here's this week's selective-use-of-facts SQUIRREL! from Team Hopenchange.   But before you start wondering if Mitt might be a heartless goon who stole the future from honest workers to enrich his buddies, meet someone who actually did just that:

Emails obtained by The Daily Caller show that the U.S. Treasury Department, led by Timothy Geithner, was the driving force behind terminating the pensions of 20,000 salaried retirees at the Delphi auto parts manufacturing company.

The move, made in 2009 while the Obama administration implemented its auto bailout plan, appears to have been made solely because those retirees were not members of labor unions.

Democrats. The friend of the working man.

The SQUIRREL! Election

My humble boss here and I had a brief discussion on FaceBook.  He posted something, I responded with an idea, and Clifford made it snarky.

What he posted, and all you need to know about the 2012 Presidential election is this:

The administration, for the 31st time out of their 41 months, tells us "not too read too much" into this, and to "consider the context".  So we, in the administrations view, should completely ignore the 800 lb. gorilla in the room.

The administration's campaign has been reduced to distracting the public from their record.  "Today's unemployment numbers........SQUIRREL!"

Where are these vicious squirrels?  All around.

Chick-Fil-A?  Squirrel.  An openly Christian company, with NO history of discrimination in hiring or service, must be damned for supporting a view that the President held until 3 months ago. 

Romney's tax returns?  Squirrel.  Sen Harry Reid (D-NV), who won't release his own tax returns, has claimed an unknown, anonymous person has claimed that Romney didn't pay his taxes.  This is quite amusing.  First, Reid has failed to deny the widespread allegations of pederasty against him.  Second, President Obama's past is "unimportant", but Romney's high school report card is newsworthy.

Please look for many more "SQUIRREL!" moments in the next 3 months.  Will you be so easily distracted?  Or will you keep your eyes on the prize?
