James Woods nails Queen Hussein

Gotta love James Woods. On Twitter yesterday he zinged President B. Hussein Obama over the "I could have been Trayvon" speech.

Some Wooden gems:  "Does the President of the United States have any advice for other teenage boys in America?" and "ALL youth of every heritage in this country would benefit from jobs and manageable student loans, NOT a bloated Welfare State."

And the winner:  "The only reason people lock their car doors when Obama walks by is they are afraid he'll tax them to death..."

Sen. Scott Brown, please STFU! & Hang In There, Todd Akin!

Sen. Scott Brown needs to shut the f**k up.  Or at least put his energies into defeating the fake Indian* running against him for the Massachusetts senate seat.

So, Todd Akin, running on the Republican ticket for senator from Missouri against Democrat Claire McCaskill, inartfully stated that he is concerned about a life that is created from a woman being raped.  That's what I got out of Akin's poor choice of words, certainly not as bad as "Sheriff Joe" Biden telling black folks that Romney wants to put them back in chains.

Akin never said that he supported rape or rapists.  He fudged on the issue of aborting a human life created from the crime of rape.  Not an easy question to answer.  If one is truly pro-life, then a life created from rape is still a viable and valuable human life.  No woman is denigrated, nor is the crime of rape tolerated, when a human life is exonerated from death by abortion following a rape.

Senator Brown has called on Todd Akin to resign the Republican nomination for U.S. Senator from Missouri.  Senator Brown should be ashamed of himself for pandering to the left rather than coming to the defense of a conservative on the issue of human life, a conservative who is sorely needed to take back control of the U.S. Senate from the anti-life, anti-producer Democratic Party.

Senator Brown should resign the Republican nomination for U.S. Senator from Massachusetts.  I would rather have fake Indian*, genuine Democrat Elizabeth Warren win than have another fake Republican (RINO) like Scott Brown.

I have similar reservations about Mitt Romney, but am willing to give him a little more leeway because we absolutely need to show Barack Obama the door on November 6, 2012.  Still, Mitt should also be ashamed of himself for attacking Todd Akin.

*I have 1,000,000 times more Cherokee ancestry than Elizabeth Warren, so I feel comfortable in referring to her as a fake Indian.

Prayer for Mike Vanderboegh

Today I said a prayer for Mike Vanderboegh, as he is undergoing surgery.

For anyone reading this, please do the same.

I understand that David Codrea will have updates on Mike at War on Guns.

R.I.P. Frank Buckles

Frank Buckles, the last surviving American Veteran of WWI, died Sunday in West Virginia at the age of 110. 

Buckles, who was only sixteen years old when the U.S. formally entered WWI in 1917, tried repeatedly to enlist in the war effort.  He succeeded in joining the army only after convincing a captain that he was eighteen.  The captain had asked to see his birth certificate, to which Buckles replied that it did not exist and that the record of his birth was recorded in a family Bible.

Story at Fox News.

R.I.P. Aaron Zelman

Aaron Zelman, founder of Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership, has passed.

Zelman was an uncompromising leader of the right to own firearms.  Although I did not know him, I benefited greatly from his work, which helped to form my own opinions on the Second Amendment and the dangers posed by a government that disarms it's citizens.

May G*d welcome him with open arms.

Veteran's Day

Thanks to all the veterans out there who have sacrificed for our freedoms.  Today I remember the veterans in my family:  Dad (WWII), Grandpa (WWII and Korea), Grandpa Charles (WWI), and brother Gary (Vietnam).

Yesterday I went to a school assembly organized by the new music teacher at my daughter's school.  All of the grades were represented and sang patriotic songs in honor of our veterans.  Veterans from as far back as WWII were in attendance, and there was an honor guard from Fairchild Air Force Base to present the U.S. and state flags.  It had to be the best student assembly I have seen in the four and a half years that my daughter has been going to this school.  Each class of children, from the kindergarten throught the sixth grade, had rehearsed their songs and really put their hearts into it.  I don't know why, but I get kind of choked up when I hear kids singing "God Bless America", "America the Beautiful", "The Star Spangled Banner" and "You're a Grand Old Flag."  Makes me think that there is hope for this country, yet.

What floored me, though, was when the sixth grade class sang the Battle Hymn of the Republic.  I guess the ACLU must have been frightened off by the M14 rifles carried by the FAFB honor guard and thus weren't around to protest the "Glory Hallelujahs" and mentions of the Lord.  Nice to know that the religion haters haven't succeeded in banning all mentions of our Creator.

Again, thank you, Veterans. 

Yes on Initiative 1069

Ballot Initiative Number 1069, for consideration by the voters of the State of Washington:

Section 2, RCW 1.20.080 is amended to read as follows:
The Seal of the State of Washington shall be a seal encircled with the words:  Committed to sucking the lifeblood out of each and every taxpayer," with the vignette of a tapeworm dressed in a three piece suit attached to the lower intestine of the taxpayer as a central figure.

I don't know if this initiative will actually be on the ballot, but if it is I will be voting for it.  I just wish that the patriot sponsoring the initiative, Mr. James E. Vaughn, would have added that the head of the tapeworm be of the current governor of the State of Washington.  Our current governor, Christine Gregoire, has all the parasitic qualities of a tapeworm.  Since it is unlikely that her face would adorn the tapeworm anytime soon, I guess the reverse will have to do.

That's all for now.

R.I.P. Ted Stevens (1923-2010)

The Lord has taken Ted Stevens home. The Honorable Senator Stevens represented the great State of Alaska for the vast majority of my lifetime. He died in a small plane crash in southwest Alaska while on a fishing trip. He will be sorely missed by Alaskans.

Thank You, Senator Jeff Sessions

Senator Jeff Sessions of Alabama deserves a hearty thank you for his articulate explanation of his opposition to the confirmation of Elena Kagan to the U.S. Supreme Court. Read it here, at USA Today.

Senator Sessions lays it out straight, "The American people want judges who impartially follow the text of the Constitution. They reject judges who use their power to impose their own political views — liberal or conservative — on the nation.

Throughout her career, Ms. Kagan has placed her politics above the law."

Thank you, Senator.

I recall that Kagan, when asked if she was prepared to uphold the rights recognized by the Declaration of Independence, could only answer that she would follow the Constitution. Either Kagan is about as bright as a three watt bulb, or is lying her fat ass off.

Judging by the company she keeps, both are likely.

Jeers to Senator Lindsey "Grahamnesty" Graham, R(INO)-SC for voting with the Democrapheads on the Judiciary Committee to send Kagan's nomination to the full senate. The former Retarded Politician of the Week provided additional evidence of his "specialness" when he said, "What's in Elena Kagan's heart is that of a good person who adopts a philosophy I disagree with," Graham said. "She will serve this nation honorably, and it would not have been someone I would have chosen, but the person who did choose, President Obama, I think chose wisely."

Happy Independence Day!!!!

The date may be July 4th, 2010, but the celebration is of Independence Day. Just as Christmas has been watered down by the multicultural libtards to Happy Holidays, the day that 13 colonies declared their independence from Britain.

For people like Supreme Court nominuee Elena Kagan, it is July Fourth, and has no real meaning, since she does not recognize the significance of the Declaration of Indendence and the human rights that document recognizes. Note I said "recognizes" and not "creates". For libtards, rights do not really exists. Rights cannot be changed by any man, woman, or government, for they are bestowed by our Creator. When libtards say rights, they mean privileges, priveleges which can be changed or taken away by legislative fiat, executive order, or reinterpretation of the "living" constitution.

Today I am celebrating Independence Day and the men who "with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor".

I am remembering these carefully chosen words, directed by thirteen servient colonies to a militarily superior tyrannical master:

"When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security."

Does anyone today know what happened to those brave men who signed the Declaration of Independence? Here is some information that was recently emailed to me:

"Have you ever wondered what happened to the 56 men who signed the Declaration of Independence?

Five signers were captured by the British as traitors, and tortured before they died.

Twelve had their homes ransacked and burned.

Two lost their sons serving in the Revolutionary Army; another had two sons captured.

Nine of the 56 fought and died from wounds or the hardships of the Revolutionary War.

They signed and they pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor.

What kind of men were they?

Twenty-four were lawyers and jurists.

Eleven were merchants, nine were farmers and large plantation owners; men of means, well educated, but they signed the Declaration of Independence knowing full well that the penalty would be death if they were captured.

Carter Braxton of Virginia, a wealthy planter and trader, saw his ships swept from the seas by the British Navy. He sold his home and properties to pay his debts, and died in rags.

Thomas McKeam was so hounded by the British that he was forced to move his family almost constantly. He served in the Congress without pay, and his family was kept in hiding. His possessions were taken from him, and poverty was his reward.

Vandals or soldiers looted the properties of Dillery, Hall, Clymer, Walton, Gwinnett, Heyward, Ruttledge, and Middleton.

At the battle of Yorktown, Thomas Nelson, Jr., noted that the British General Cornwallis had taken over the Nelson home for his headquarters. He quietly urged General George Washington to open fire. The home was destroyed, and Nelson died bankrupt.

Francis Lewis had his home and properties destroyed. The enemy jailed his wife, and she died within a few months.

John Hart was driven from his wife's bedside as she was dying. Their 13 children fled for their lives. His fields and his gristmill were laid to waste. For more than a year he lived in forests and caves, returning home to find his wife dead and his children vanished."

When I see libtards reduce Independence Day to July 4th, I am dismayed that a date in history on which our freedom as human beings, not just colonists, was declared has been reduced to a numerical recreational holiday.

On this day, celebrate the Declaration of Independence and its declaration to the crown of your God given rights as a human being. Re-think your participation as a citizen and your commitment to preserving liberty. Two hundred and thirty four years later, the forces of tyranny are still around us. What will you do to keep them at bay?

Remember what Dick Cheney said, "It is easy to take liberty for granted, when you have never had it taken from you."

Can You Say "Filibuster"?

Filibuster! Filibuster!
Filibuster! Filibuster!

Congratulations to Senator-elect Scott Brown, R-MA.

As Dick Morris so aptly put it, the election of Scott Brown "marks the last bill Obama is ever going to pass of any consequence, except for bipartisan stuff. This is the end of the Obama ascendancy, because he has so systematically alienated the 40 Republicans, that now that there are 41, none of them is going to give him the right time of day."

Young'uns and Veterans Day

Yesterday my little one, eight years old, asked me what Veterans Day meant. Seems the school doesn't explain it too well. She thought it was a sad day and wondered why we celebrate it. She was also sad that she was not able to bring a Veteran family member to school as some other kids did.

I explained to her that her Veterans were with her always: my father, who served in WWII; my grandfathers, who served in WWI, WWII, and Korea; and her Opa, who served in Vietnam. They are all gone now, but we honor their memory and their sacrifices and feel that they are always with us.

I also explained that Veterans Day is not a day for sadness. Rather, it is a day to celebrate the lives of brave men who thought our country is so great that they were willing to sacrifice all for her. And that some did indeed give their lives for us to enjoy our freedom in this great country.

God bless the children.

Happy Veterans Day to all.

Help Joe Wilson

Well, the media shills are at it again.

After the press has savaged Rep. Joe Wilson, R-SC, for daring to shout out the truth about their darling Comrade Obama, the press is now shilling for his opponent. On MSN's homepage this morning I noted a feature on Joe Wilson's opponent. No, I will not aid and abet the shilling by naming him.

Considering that the press is determined to play its bias by going negative on Joe and all-out positive for his opponent, Joe needs our help.

Please consider donating to Joe Wilson's campaign here. I did.

Lest We Forget

Today is a day of remembrance for that day, eight years ago, when some three thousand of our citizens died at the hands of barbaric men acting in the name of their religion. A religion that in its sacred texts not only condones, but advocates, barbaric acts against innocents. Today is a day that American history should mark as a day of infamy on par, at the least, with the invasion of Pearl Harbor by the Japanese in 1941. 9/11, however, is far more indicative of a civilizational struggle than was Pearl Harbor. We should remember the innocents who lost their lives to a barbaric culture on 9/11, but we should never forget that this was one of the opening salvos in an attack on our western civilization and all of the freedoms we hold dear.

It is also a time to remember all of the heroes who gave selflessly on that day and in the following days to help their fellow Americans.

Today I am visiting the following sites to remind myself of the dangers of complacency following the attacks against our country on September 11, 2001:

Thank You, Congressman Joe Wilson

By now everyone knows that Congressman Joe Wilson, R-SC, yelled out "You lie!" when Barack Hussein Obama said in his speech last night that the obamination of a health care bill would not cover illegal aliens.

I tried to send an email to Congressman Wilson to express my pleasure at his calling Comrade Obama on his lies, and to express my displeasure at Wilson for apologizing. I could not because his congressional web site is down, so I will do it here.

Thank you, Congressman Wilson, for calling Obama on his lies. It is about time that someone in elected office had the balls to speak the obvious. Obama is a liar. And Congressman, never apologize for telling the truth. I must remember to contribute to your election fund.

Now for some dishonorable mentions for not backing Congressman Wilson:
--The Dishonorable John McCain, R-AZ
--The Dishonorable Lindsey Graham, R-SC
--The Dishonorable Bob Corker, R-TN
--The Dishonorable Dave Camp, R-MI

I need not mention the usual hypocritical screeching scumbags on the left such as Dick(head) Durbin, D-IL, Sheila Jack(ass)son Lee, D-TX, Jim Clyburn (former Retarded Politician of the Week), D-SC, and Queen Nancy of Pelosi, D-CA who had to comment, but I will anyway.

Socialist Pigs Seek to Disarm Us

The bastardly Obummer administration is at it again. Another attempt to disarm us. After getting its toe burned off testing the waters of gun control, the New National Socialist Party (Why not? The Obummerites hate Jews* and seek to disarm the population. Shades of 1938) has set its sights a bit lower: pocketknives.

Specifically, the Obummer administration is seeking to redefine the concept of a "switchblade" knife to include assisted-opening and one-hand-opening knives. But wait, they tell us, they only want to ban the importation of assisted-opening and one-hand-opening knives. Those very few remaining American knife manufacturers can go about their business as usual, we are only after those evil, imported knives. The Obummerites propose to do this by changing the importation rules for U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

Did I earlier say "shades of 1938"? How about shades of 1989? I am old enough to remember when Bush the Elder (but not wiser) banned imported semi-automatic rifles by executive order. Oh, not to worry, Dear American Citizen, the purpose was to ban only those evil, imported rifles. Then 1994, and the cravenly misnamed "Assault Weapons Ban" went into affect. Our right to own semi-automatic rifles suitable for rebelling against an oppressive government was seriously infringed for TEN YEARS. Ceding any rights whatsoever to government control is the beginning of the slippery slope to losing all rights.

I would like to congratulate Congressman Walt Minnick D-ID for his efforts to fight the Obummer administration's attempts to disarm Americans. I have noticed his efforts because his district is only a few miles from my hometown. Rep. Minnick has valiantly fought the administration's plans and continues to fight for law abiding knife owners. If Rep. Minnick gives as much effort to fighting the Obummer administration's gun ban efforts, he will have earned my respect. I will be watching to see if he caves in to the Democrappic party line.

We should all be monitoring our representatives on this issue, as I believe that the Obummerites are testing the waters for future disarming of the populace. While many have focused on the Second Amendment being a gun issue, guns are only one type of arms. We need to be on the lookout for the Obummerites finding other ways to thwart the Constitution. I believe that the proposed knife ban is just such an attempt.

Bottom line: The Obummer administration fears us. It is not the first administration to fear its Constitutional master. It is, however, the most conniving in its attempts to disarm its master. Government wants us to live in fear, so that we can be controlled. It is high time to turn the tables back and run this country the way our founders intended.


*Obummer's kowtowing and apologizing to every repressive Muslim regime while selling out Israel is all the proof I need that the Obummer administration hates Jews.

Oklahoma House Passes Sovereignty Bill, Senate Likely to Follow

The Oklahoma House of Representatives passed a resolution declaring its sovereignty! Way to go, Oklahoma! Story here.

Chances are good that the Oklahoma Senate will also pass the resolution.

The resolution, HCR 1028, does not require approval by Governor Brad Henry. The Governor had vetoed a previous bill HJR 1003 which also declared Oklahoma's sovereignty.

Cheers to the Oklahoma House, and to the Senate if it passes the resolution as expected. Jeers to Governor Henry.

I'M A DOMESTIC TERRORIST

According to what I have been reading about the latest Department of Homeland Security report about domestic terrorism concerns, I have come to the conclusion that I am a domestic terrorist. According to DHS, I fit the profile because I:

*Am anti-government (at least the current incarnation of the Carter administration);

*Am, as previously stated, antagonistic to the current administration, especially over its policies on firearms ownership, immigration, and expansion of social programs;

*Believe in the 10th Amendment to the Constitution, which favors state authority over federal authority;

*Have several "single issues" that I am dedicated to, such as pro-gun, pro-life, and anti-illegal immigration; and

*Am focused on the economy: loss of jobs, home foreclosures, and massive bank bailouts that we cannot afford.

If believing in the Constitution and wanting to restore the republic to its former glory makes me a domestic terrorist, I will gladly wear that label as my own red badge of courage.

David Olafson Needs Your Support

For about a year now I have been contributing support for David Olafson through Gun Owners of America. Olafson was wrongfully convicted of possession an unregistered machine gun after his semi-automatic rifle malfunctioned and fired a three round burst while in the possession of a friend at a rifle range.

Do your part to stand up to government tyranny, contribute to the Olafson Relief Fund.

A Patriot...

Who woulda thunk it?

Angie Harmon: I'm Not Racist Because I Disagree With Obama

Angie Harmon is not afraid to come out and say she doesn’t like how President Obama is handling the job — but she’s sick of having to defend herself from being deemed a racist.

I don't know what Ms. Harmon's political leanings are, but she is a patriot in my book for saying what needs to be said.
