Solidarity - Yea Right...

...let me get this right - It is "solidarity" when liberals agree with the "cause" and a mob when they don't.

Tea Party demonstrators had no violence (though accused but never proven), no taxpayer went without services (i.e. fake sick calls), no calls for "blood in the streets" - Yet they were a mob...

Now we have liars faking sick call-in(s), politicians saying "sometimes you have to get bloody", and protesters issuing threats...and this is a good thing.

Guess I am a stupid southern boy, because that makes no sense to me - AND, I pray it never does!

Against Public Unions - Your a Racist

…just in case you didn't know
American Thinker Blog: Fiscal responsibility is racist!
Thought I would mention, upon leaving the military I looked at "a public" job and was told "no matter if you have the highest, score the top 98 minorities would be hired before you are considered" - They were looking to hire 100 police officers. Wonder why the public sector has a higher number of african-american employees? ?

It's because she'd had a mastectomy, explained her chief of staff Michelle Scannell. Apparently, a body scan turned up scars or a prosthetic device.

Public Unions are a Burden on Taxpayers

This is an interesting read, and even more interesting is a quote from Wisconsin's socialist governor of the past:
public sector unions "can mean considerable loss of control over the budget, and hence over tax rates."

Another View on Unions

This is an interesting read of someone, from a pro-union family, changing their opinion of unions…

I now saw the union as a grand rip-off. The union working man wasn't some noble, virtuous saint, fighting the good fight against the Robber Barons, as I'd always been taught. He was a drunken, stoned, uneducated, vulgar slob, ripping off a piece of the action for himself.

Czars be Gone - Maybe

Found this interesting and promising - MAYBE?

“These unappointed, unaccountable people who are literally running a shadow government, heading up these little fiefdoms that nobody can really seem to identify where they are or what they’re doing,”

Don't Blame Oil Companies for Higher Gas Prices

Maybe a little economics 101 - Oil Companies have stockholders, possibly even you. The companies responsibility first is to the stockholders who invested in them, no not Billy Bob who they may have hired. ANY, increase in operational expense could cut what the INVESTORS get out of their investment...which could cause the stockholders to bolt putting the company in trouble and costing Billy Bob his job...

...so the easy fix is to pass this on to the consumer - SO don't blame the Oil Company for higher gas prices!

What Will Marriage Be?

Found this an interesting read - Should make some think.
In truth then, what is being pursued is not any redefinition of marriage, but rather the "undefinition" of it -- an attempt to obliterate any fundamental parameters for what is to be perceived as moral and immoral sexual partnerships.

Obama Warned, Amazing!

The U.S. President is warned by a foreign power, publicly called out. Speaks volumes about our president that they dare attempt, but what its worse he will probably comply.

Here is an Idea

...in response to Muslims wanting to change their "image" in Hollywood.

Muslims seek change in their Hollywood story - USATODAY.com

  1. Muslim leaders speaking out against extremist.
  2. Muslim community policing their own.
  3. Muslim people defending themselves against extremist promoting the "love in the Koran" with violence.

Regan vs Obama at Recovery

Everyone needs to read this whether you agree with the author or not.

Morning Bell: The Reagan Recovery vs The Obama Recovery

US Should be Cautious, Not Offer Blind Support

I am not so sure we, as a nation, should be encouraging the same as militant Islamic groups... Sure the "protesters" (Muslim Brotherhood) claim to be pro-democracy, but are they? We know that the Muslim Brotherhood had a militant wing which they claim has been closed... I am just saying, the nation, should be cautious in jumping on board as supportive based solely on a "pro-democracy" claim!
Islamic militants took to the Internet to call on Muslims to unite behind Egyptian protesters and not to 'waste the chance' to topple President Hosni Mubarak

Results of Political Correctness

It has always been my opinion that "political correctness" is counter productive and dangerous!
One of the officers who reported Hasan to superiors opined that Hasan was permitted to remain in service because of “political correctness”
