This picture has nothing to do with this post but I thought it accurately reflected my attitude toward technology.  Sometimes.

ATTENTION LIBERALS PLEASE

January 28, 2012 - 12:19pm


This picture has nothing to do with this post.  Sarah and Ryan are the paler ones on the right.  Thank God for this church and the new Christians I have yet to meet.  Pastor Jaimez is doing a good job.

ATTENTION LIBERALS PLEASE
I need some help.  Please correct anything that is false in the article below.  If there is nothing wrong with it please explain why you are trying to hide Obama's anti-American, anti-Christian, pro-communist leanings.  Correct anything that is in error.

1. Back in 1961 people of color were called 'Negroes.' So how can the Obama 'birth certificate' state he is 'African-American' when the term wasn't even used at that time?

2. The birth certificate that the White House released lists Obama's birth as August 4, 1961. It also lists Barack Hussein Obama as his father. No big deal, right? At the time of Obama's birth, it also shows that his father is aged 25 years old, and that Obama's father was born in " Kenya , East Africa ." This wouldn't seem like anything of concern, except the fact that Kenya did not even exist until 1963, two whole years after Obama's birth, and 27 years after his father's birth. How could Obama's father have been born in a country that did not yet exist? Up and until Kenya was formed in 1963, it was known as the "British East Africa Protectorate."

3. On the birth certificate released by the White House, the listed place of birth is "Kapi'olani Maternity & Gynecological Hospital." This cannot be, because the hospital(s) in question in 1961 were called "KauiKeolani Children's Hospital" and "Kapi'olani Maternity Home," respectively. The name did not change to Kapi'olani Maternity & Gynecological Hospital until 1978, when these two hospitals merged. How can this particular name of the hospital be on a birth certificate dated 1961 if this name had not yet been applied to it until 1978?


The way I see it BHO hates the constitution and violates it often.  He thinks he is king and should rule us because he is better, smarter, and more talented than the rest of us.  Personally I believe my dog would be a less harmful president.  So, LIBERAL, if you can correct any facts above that are not true.



I doubt any liberals will read this but it helps lower my blood pressure to vent.

I used to be able to post interesting family pictures on this blog.  I cannot now.  A friend helped me and gave me a gmail account.  Since then it became my primary address for this blog and I cannot change that back to my sbcglobal.net.  Sorry if you follow this blog.  Frustrating ain't it?

HOW BHO GOT ELECTED

November 25, 2011 - 9:36pm
I like walls for places like this but this one has a charm of its' own.

The hurricanes that hit the Gulf Coast of our nation were devastating. It did not spare the houses of worship in and around the area. One of the local television stations in South Louisiana aired an interview with a woman from New Orleans.

The interviewer was a woman from a Boston affiliate. She asked the woman how such total and complete devastation of the churches in the area had affected their lives?

Without hesitation, the woman replied, “I don’t know about all those other people, but we ain’t gone to Churches in years.We gets our chicken from Popeye’s.”

The look on the interviewer’s face was priceless.

They’re out there, they live among us, AND THEY VOTE.
Now you understand how we got our president?

They probably vote for BHO. After all he gives them free money.

ACTUAL HEADLINES

October 28, 2011 - 11:42am




These two pictures are eyeball sensitive, a red-eyed kid and yellow-eyed dog. Maybe these photos bring out something in the soul. The kid is Andrew who is my Buddy. The other is a Buddy also. Buddy is better because of a shock collar. I have suggested Andrew’s parents use a shock collar on him but they say they don’t need it. He is a good kid but it’s fun to watch Buddy yip. The collar has a vibrate mode that I use. Usually I don’t have to use either.

ACTUAL HEADLINES...

  • POLICE BEGIN CAMPAIGN TO RUN DOWN JAYWALKERS
  • SAFETY EXPERTS SAY SCHOOL BUS PASSENGERS SHOULD BE BELTED
  • DRUNK GETS NINE MONTHS IN VIOLIN CASE

MORE GUNS = LESS CRIME

October 20, 2011 - 11:36am

This picture is a repeat and has nothing to do with this post. Buddy, our newish dog is playing with Mohammad a stuffed pink pig. Yeah Buddy.

-------------------------------------

Beware public school students and teachers. The following uses satire and sarcasm, words with which you are unfamiliar.


40 REASONS GUNS SHOULD BE BANNED

  1. Banning guns works, which is why New York, DC, Detroit & Chicago cops need guns.
  2. Washington DC's low murder rate of 69 per 100,000 is due to strict gun control, and Indianapolis' high murder rate of 9 per 100,000 is due to the lack of gun control.
  3. Statistics showing high murder rates justify gun control but statistics showing increasing murder rates after gun control are "just statistics."
  4. The Brady Bill and the Assault Weapons Ban, both of which went into effect in 1994 are responsible for the decrease in violent crime rates, which have been declining since 1991.
  5. We must get rid of guns because a deranged lunatic may go on a shooting spree at any time and anyone who would own a gun out of fear of such a lunatic is paranoid.
  6. The more helpless you are the safer you are from criminals.
  7. An intruder will be incapacitated by tear gas or oven spray, but if shot with a .357 Magnum will get angry and kill you.
  8. A woman raped and strangled is morally superior to a woman with a smoking gun and a dead rapist at her feet.
  9. When confronted by violent criminals, you should "put up no defense - give them what they want, or run" (Handgun Control Inc. Chairman Pete Shields, Guns Don't Die - People Do, 1981, p. 125).
  10. The New England Journal of Medicine is filled with expert advice about guns; just like Guns & Ammo has some excellent treatises on heart surgery.
  11. One should consult an automotive engineer for safer seat belts, a civil engineer for a better bridge, a surgeon for internal medicine, a computer programmer for hard drive problems, and Sarah Brady for firearms expertise.
  12. The 2nd Amendment, ratified in 1787, refers to the National Guard, which was created 130 years later, in 1917.
  13. The National Guard, federally funded, with bases on federal land, using federally-owned weapons, vehicles, buildings and uniforms, punishing trespassers under federal law, is a "state" militia.
  14. These phrases: "right of the people peaceably to assemble," "right of the people to be secure in their homes," "enumerations herein of certain rights shall not be construed to disparage others retained by the people," and "The powers not delegated herein are reserved to the states respectively, and to the people" all refer to individuals, but "the right of the people to keep and bear arms" refers to the state.
  15. "The Constitution is strong and will never change." But we should ban and seize all guns thereby violating the 2nd, 4th, and 5th Amendments to that Constitution.
  16. Rifles and handguns aren't necessary to national defense! Of course, the army has hundreds of thousands of them.
  17. Private citizens shouldn't have handguns, because they aren't "military weapons'', but private citizens shouldn't have "assault rifles'', because they are military weapons.
  18. In spite of waiting periods, background checks, fingerprinting, government forms, etc., guns today are too readily available, which is responsible for recent school shootings. In the 1940's, 1950's and 1960's, anyone could buy guns at hardware stores, army surplus stores, gas stations, variety stores, Sears mail order, no waiting, no background check, no fingerprints, no government forms and there were no school shootings.
  19. The NRA's attempt to run a "don't touch" campaign about kids handling guns is propaganda, but the anti-gun lobby's attempt to run a "don't touch" campaign is responsible social activity.
  20. Guns are so complex that special training is necessary to use them properly, and so simple to use that they make murder easy.
  21. A handgun, with up to 4 controls, is far too complex for the typical adult to learn to use, as opposed to an automobile that only has 20.
  22. Women are just as intelligent and capable as men but a woman with a gun is "an accident waiting to happen" and gun makers' advertisements aimed at women are "preying on their fears."
  23. Ordinary people in the presence of guns turn into slaughtering butchers but revert to normal when the weapon is removed.
  24. Guns cause violence, which is why there are so many mass killings at gun shows.
  25. A majority of the population supports gun control, just like a majority of the population supported owning slaves.
  26. Any self-loading small arm can legitimately be considered to be a "weapon of mass destruction" or an "assault weapon."
  27. Most people can't be trusted, so we should have laws against guns, which most people will abide by because they can be trusted.
  28. The right of Internet pornographers to exist cannot be questioned because it is constitutionally protected by the Bill of Rights, but the use of handguns for self defense is not really protected by the Bill of Rights.
  29. Free speech entitles one to own newspapers, transmitters, computers, and typewriters, but self- defense only justifies bare hands.
  30. The ACLU is good because it uncompromisingly defends certain parts of the Constitution, and the NRA is bad, because it defends other parts of the Constitution.
  31. Charlton Heston, a movie actor as president of the NRA is a cheap lunatic who should be ignored, but Michael Douglas, a movie actor as a representative of Handgun Control, Inc. is an ambassador for peace who is entitled to an audience at the UN arms control summit.
  32. Police operate with backup within groups, which is why they need larger capacity pistol magazines than do "civilians" who must face criminals alone and therefore need less ammunition.
  33. We should ban "Saturday Night Specials" and other inexpensive guns because it's not fair that poor people have access to guns too.
  34. Police officers have some special Jedi-like mastery over handguns that private citizens can never hope to obtain.
  35. Private citizens don't need a gun for self- protection because the police are there to protect them even though the Supreme Court says the police are not responsible for their protection.
  36. Citizens don't need to carry a gun for personal protection but police chiefs, who are desk-bound administrators who work in a building filled with cops, need a gun.
  37. "Assault weapons" have no purpose other than to kill large numbers of people. The police need assault weapons. You do not.
  38. When Microsoft pressures its distributors to give Microsoft preferential promotion, that's bad; but when the Federal government pressures cities to buy guns only from Smith & Wesson, that's good.
  39. Trigger locks do not interfere with the ability to use a gun for defensive purposes, which is why you see police officers with one on their duty weapon.
  40. Handgun Control, Inc., says they want to "keep guns out of the wrong hands." Guess what? You have the wrong hands.

ONE OF THE PROBLEM WITH LIBERALS AND OTHER "USEFUL IDIOTS" IS THAT THEY ALREADY KNOW EVERYTHING. REAL FACTS AND OTHER OPINIONS HAVE TO BE WRONG AS THEY ARE CONTRARY TO THEIR PRECONCEIVED BIASED OPINIONS.

You can get two points on your final grade if you can tell me where the term "useful idiots" originated.
