Somali Pirates Should be used for Target Practice

Why are we coddling these Somali pirates?  We should simply go in there w/ Navy seals and extract the hostage and kill all the pirates.  We could deny it since white house policy says it's ok to lie.  If we blow the pirate boats out of the water then they'll cease & desist.  

How much aide are we giving to Somalia?  I wonder how much helps support these pirates.

Never Buy a Toro Lawnmower

I just bought a LawnBoy mower for my yard.  I wish I'd done it years ago.  It started the first time every time.  I just put my old toros out on the curb.  They were both GTS (Guaranteed to Start) & never started on the first three tries on their best day.  I took em in to get tuned up & they were still a pain to start.  The only way I could get them to start was w/ carburator cleaner.  Toro should sell their crappy mowers w/ 2-3 cans of Gumount carb cleaner....

Al Gore and earth hour

It looks like Al forgot about earth hour this year.

Pelosi is a saint

Here's a nice item on Pelosi.....and another

Chris Dodd Having Trouble Selling AIG Blazers

Chris Dodd is a liar & a cheat. How many bribes did he accept from AIG, Countrywide, real estate interests & other financial institutions. I think it's interesting that AIG "encoraged" employees to contribute to dipshit Dodd & wanted to collect the names. Shouldn't we remove him since he's plenty worse than the CEO of GM?

G20 Summit

The upcoming G20 summit will be interesting. Most likely there will be little agreement. I sure hope they don't ask Obama any tough questions about guns and butter;-) I bet Joe the Plummer could do a better job. He's certainly more qualified and experienced.

I want a burger from Carl's Jr.....

I've always like burgers. After seeing this ad I'm really needing a Carl's Jr. burger, but the nearest one is in OK. It's only 400 miles away. Maybe she delivers;-)

Auto Handout Idiocy

Why do we continue to throw good money after bad? The car companies don't need anymore money. They need to simply go through bankruptcy. It's not that hard to do & it might even be less painful than the current slow death course. Dozens of airlines have done it & came out just fine. One airline even did it twice. Someone needs to grab the checkbook out of OSpendamas hands.

Calamari to take over @ Kentucy...

Coach Cal has been good for Memphis. Now it seems that he'll be retiring to fabled Kentucky. He'll get some big bucks. Will his magic turn around the program that's faltered for the last 10-12 yrs? For an eight year deal he doesn't have to turn it around, only try hard.

Obama adds troops to the war in AfganiPoppyStan

21,000 more troops....on with the war....I do hope the new troops kill lots of Taliban & Al-Quida....

Obama is Clueless on Economics

I ran across a nice piece discussing the sad state of affairs with Obama & Geitner on Economics. Cleraly Geitner was a poor choice & doing worse than anyone could imagine. The economic dream team is clearly a nightmare for all concerned. Obama remains inexperienced & clueless on economics & finance. I guess he didn't actually take those courses @ Harvard. He must have taken underwated basketweaving & spin doctor 101 instead. I think he'd make a great used car salesman. I do admire Obams's trying to tackle many things at once. I don't think it's necessarily part of the problem. If he tackled fewer items it doesn't mean he'd do a better job. Strategy is severely lacking. Worse yet the true economics point to a certain depression. Obama is on his way to giving us 14% unemployment. Fixing the economy isn't rocket science. It's been done before & can be done again w/ tax cuts, incentives for small business, reduced government regulation, etc.... We can't spend our way out of this mess. I fear most for our children as their future may lie outside the US.

MLB.TV Blackouts are Evil

A few years ago I got MLB.TV and watched a bunch of games & it was pretty cool. Since then they've added the some cool features, but have added a nasty blackout feature. If you're in a variable radius of 300 - 2393 miles you get blacked out. This not only includes home games but the road games which could be 3000 miles away. I live in Memphis which contains STL, ATL & CIN. I understand the first two, but 400 miles to Cincinnati. Now I'm sure there's a bunch of folks that are going to get out of work @ 5PM and drive to Cincinnati for that 7:05PM start. That's an 1:05 due to the time change to drive 400 miles. Does my car go 390MPH?

How about if I live in Hawaii. I guess I'd have to miss the Angels, Padres & Dodgers. Wrongo. I can't watch the Giants(2393mi), but can watch the A's & all other teams.

I guess the most sensible workaround is to use a cc that has a zipcode in Hawaii assuming you're not a Giants fan.

The Ungrateful United Nations

If the UN doesn't like how we pay I think we should simply not pay anything. The UN doesn't support our efforts worldwide, it coddles terrorists, supports regimes that cause the world's problems & has the unmitigated gaul to complain about our payments. Now is the right time to pull out of the UN and evict them from NY. Maybe they should find a new home in Tehran?

Oh President O'Liar

What's up w/ Obama. He made a bunch of promises & is breaking tons of them....and mostly no one is objecting. What are we coddling him?

Here's a few of the lies

• Wait five days before signing bills
• Build bipartisan support
• Use the line item veto
• Stamp out pork
• No earmarks
• No lobbyists
• No tax hikes for all but the ultra rich

How many more lies can we expect over the next 3.86 years?

President O'Taxama is a Fool

What an arrogant president we now have. He plans the most massive tax increases in history. He's a socialist & an elitist. We're on our way to the Obama depression. How does 15% unemployment sound? After the deflation wears off in six months we're start inflation. O'Taxama will then start printing monopoly money.

Trillions of waste. Why isn't everyone outraged @ the ruin this moron of a president is creating?

I think we need $22Mil for a Ted Kennedy museum.

More Disappointment Ahead in the new budget

Obama's new budget is chock full of 8000+ earmarks. As if the pork in the stimulus wasn't enough. What is he thinking. Here's a few examples.....and some more and more and more. The president does have line item veto authority and promised to use it during his campaign.....NOT!

Yet another day on the road to America's great Obama depression.

New Troops in Afganistan....Double Standard

How come Bush got bashed for sending more troops overseas & Obama does the same thing & noone bats an eyelash?

Insane Idiocy...Bailout the Deadbeats Who Don't Want to Pay Their Mortgages

Yet another dagger into the heart of our country. The latest scheme is even dumber than the last. Did Obama just watch Dumb & Dumber? It's clear he's a fan of Danny Divito in "Other People's Money". Now we're going to bailout irresponsible borrowers so they can stay in their homes longer, not pay their mortgage (since the rest of us are paying it now) this allows them to pamper their pets, buy more cigarettes, go out on the town, buy crack cocaine, buy a new car, etc....

I thought Clinton was a bad president because he did absolutely nothing, running on auto pilot. Obama is in the car driving as fast as he can & isn't worried about driving off the cliff. This is what we get when idiots elect a president with absolutely no experience.

I think Obama must have been reading some Karl Marx dogma.

Obama's programs that are driving us into a depression four year's hence will be written in the history books as the "Bad Deal".

Chimp Owner is a Chump

I can't believe someone has a 200lb chimp as a pet. The chimp mauled someone & was shot. I think the owner should be charged with wreckless endangerment & assault. I guess PETA will want to prosecute the one who killed the chimp.

New Presidential Seal

It's high time to replace the presidential seal with something more reflective of what's going on.

Obama to take control of the census

Obama is going to redraw the lines. His plan is to change all red states to have three electoral votes. He will redistribute them to the blue states. Most will not even notice.

Postal Service Delivery...Cut Saturday or Tuesday....How about both?

The postal service is contemplating cutting either Saturday or Tuesday service. That's a step in the right direction but how about simply getting rid of both days. Even better let's throw in Thursday too. Mail volume continues to decline & we need daily mail delivery like we need pork from congress.

The USPS should also close post offices in states like West Virginia & PA. Shouldn't there be more post offices in California, NY, Texas & Florida than WV? Why are there more post offices in WV than any other state? I'm thinking that all small post offices <5 employees should be closed & merged into bigger ones. But then again that might only save us $20 Billion or so per yr.

I like beans with my pork!

What's with all this pork in this silly stimulus bill. How are water parks, new turf, contraceptives & pell grants going to stimulate the economy?

If we want to create a stimulus that works we need to incent businesses to hire people in areas the help w/ r&d in key strategic areas.

Handouts are a bandaid & simply akin to giving addicts more drugs cause it's easier & less painful.

Bryers Does it Again

It all started a few years ago when a half-gallon used to be two quarts. Since then the deceptive thieves @ Bryers have followed the incredible shrinking package playbook. The size dropped to 1.75 qts, then 1.5 qts & now 1.42 qts. I guess it must be for the increased advertising & repackaging costs. Maybe they could put a carton inside a carton to make it actually bigger than anyone else's container. In a few years they'll be next to Ben & Jerry's with a pseudo half gallon container that impersonates a pint.

I urge all of you to boycott Bryers.

A-Rod becomes A-Roid

Alex Rodriguez took steroids....what a surprise. I suspect we'll see some more names before spring training. Yankees fans won't care. A-Roid will play on.....but he'll have to skip Cooperstown & stay in Steroidtown.
