Too Stupid to Breathe

Why is America becoming a tyranical police state?  Because our dumb-asses WANT it that way!

Nineteen surveys which prove that much of America can't pour piss out of a boot!

Our goose is SO cooked.

Denninger absolutely gets it right here in this piece!

Go here and read this.  Do it if you read nothing else this month.

When I consider that Boston, the cradle of the American Revolution, lately cowered in fear before the ham-handed acts of terrorists who should have been named Abbot and Costello.

When I consider that on the anniversary of the Shot Heard Round The World, the children of the men who fired that shot now crouch and cravenly lick the hand of GOOBERment agents who did thousands of times more damage to Boston than the Chechen bozos did. 

When I consider the in-your-face evidence that the entire US Bill of Rights is now nothing more than propaganda to be taught to school children.

And as Mr. Denninger rightly points out, we are sending the message to the whole world that we are a nation of whimpering children who long for their Nanny.

 … I am deeply saddened. America is dead and gone, and my children and grandchildren have inherited, NOT freedom, but slavery. We The Pansies have ceded our most precious birthright … LIBERTY… for tawdry trinkets of illusory safety! 

Coming to your neighborhood soon…


 
  Don't forget to say thank you to Nanny

Why there will always be tyrants

I see in the news that Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez has left the earth for his appointment with Satan.  Only the willfully ignorant refuse to accept that the man was a tyrant.

I've read some of the comments being published by the propaganda ... err... the press, and one in particular caught my eye:

"He was our father..." said Carlos Perez, a municipal worker (recipient of a government check).

So long as there exists the view that government can serve the role of a father, there will be people who are content to be treated as children.   So long as there are people who crave their neighbor's substance, there will be the politician willing to take from Peter to give to Paul - at gunpoint if need be.

This "man" gave up his guns, and provides yet another example of the metrosexual male this country produces today

I have a strong stomach, but this assclown's tale (if it's to be believed) made me want to retch.  To be honest, I couldn't finish reading it.

Why I gave up my guns


"I’m a New Yorker born-and-bred, and unlike the just under half of all Americans who keep guns in their homes, I didn’t grow up with firearms."

AND THESE PEOPLE WANT YOU TO DISARM ALONG WITH THEM!

Hey conservatives - standby to be sold out (again) by the GOP

The party of the dead elephant is NOT going to defend your 2A right to keep and bear arms.  I predict here and now that private transfers of gun ownership, the proverbial "gun show loop hole", is about to become regulated by Leviathan.


WASHINGTON -- Ask a Senate Republican if he or she supports an assault weapons ban and you'll likely get a "no." But ask about tighter background checks -- one of a few items in President Barack Obama's gun violence package with a shot at passing Congress -- and you'll likely get a vague response about needing more information, if you get a response at all.
"Uh, I don't know what you mean," said Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.), who then ended the conversation by turning around and walking into a room where senators were having lunch, closing the door behind him.
"I need to have more details. I, you know, I just need -- you need to ask me after I've talked to our judiciary staff in our office," said Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.), also heading to the Senate lunch. "I hate to respond just in the hallway, so I won't."
"I've got -- my wife's here. I'm sorry. I've gotta -- thanks," said Sen. John Barrasso (R-Wyo.).

Fiscal cliff and debt ceiling made simple

Someone sent me this so I cannot take credit for it. But the pure simplicity and common sense of it appealed to me.

Lesson # 1:

* U.S. Tax revenue: $ 2,170,000,000,000
* Fed budget: $ 3,820,000,000,000
* New debt: $ 1,650,000,000,000
* National debt: $ 14,271,000,000,000
* Recent budget cuts: $ 38,500,000,000

Let's now remove 8 zeros and pretend it's a household budget:

* Annual family income: $ 21,700
* Money the family spent: $ 38,200
* New debt on the credit card: $ 16,500
* Outstanding balance on the credit card: $ 142,710
* Total budget cuts so far: $ 38.50

Got It ?????

OK now, Lesson # 2:

Here's another way to look at the Debt Ceiling: Let's say, You come home from work and find there has been a sewer backup in your neighbourhood....and your home has sewage all the way up to your ceilings.

What do you think you should do ...... Raise the ceilings, or remove the sh*t?

Who are you to tell me what I can keep Governor?

Some remarks made recently by NY Governor Cuomo:

“There’s a big difference of opinion on these issues,”

Really?  Yet it would seem that MY opinion as a law-abiding gun owner isn't worth dog squat!


“I don’t think legitimate sportsmen are going to say, ‘I need an assault weapon to go hunting,’ ”


Just who made YOU an authority on the topic of 'legitimate sportsmen'?  There're excellent reasons besides hunting for owning any thing I damn well please!

- At the same time, he noted that he owns a shotgun that he has used for hunting -



Maybe his supposed ownership of a shotgun is what he thinks gives him to the right to dictate what Americans are allowed to own and not own.  Meanwhile I have no doubt he's followed around by well armed bodyguards so that HIS safety is never at issue!



Is this a bodyguard tagging along behind?  You reckon he's armed with something high-capacity?

“There is a balance here — I understand the rights of gun owners; I understand the rights of hunters.”


If you truly understood, you'd go do something more useful like balance your state's budget and leave guns alone.  By the way Guv.... you can stuff your 'balance' up your ass SIDEWAYS.


“Confiscation could be an option."


You think so huh?  And condemn some other mother's son to death to enforce your fascist will.


"Mandatory sale to the state could be an option."


Ya know ... the way I see it, I am all caught up on my quota for 'mandatory' stuff. You can put 'mandatory' in the same place that you put 'balance'!


"Permitting could be an option — keep your gun but permit it.”


Me and millions of other Americans are done with the notion of asking gubmint permission for things we see as God-given.  I invite the governor to visit dictionary.com and look up the word UNALIENABLE.



These ass-hats are playing with fire!!!

Why is it okay to kill some children - but not others?

The killing of these children was an atrocity (not a tragedy!)

But killing these children is just business as usual for the American Empire.

A wise man recently said...

These tidbits are the miscellaneous musings of Robert Hall, aka Old Jarhead:


I think every soldier and Marine should be issued a rifle in Boot Camp, take it with him from duty station to duty station--and keep it when he leaves the service. Sure, there would be some problems--but a lot less crime in our society.
 
Nothing is as successful at killing employee initiative and productivity as micromanagement.
 
It amazes me how many people make bad life choices, then demand that someone else fix the mess.
 
Jefferson and Jackson are revered as the great men of the Democrat party, which holds “Jefferson-Jackson” day dinners every year. But if they were alive today, with the current principles and policies of the Democrats, Jefferson wouldn’t show up. Jackson would, but someone would be looking down the bore of Old Hickory’s dueling pistol.
 
Obama may have stood down when it came time to save the lives of four Americans in Benghazi, but you have to admit he stood up for Sandra Fluke’s right to have someone else pay for her birth control.
 
Some people ration politeness like there is a limited supply.
 
Class is not status, or wealth or education or breeding. Class is where you stand when things get tough.

Quote of the day

I have never known a word to become absolute dogma, without a speck of evidence, the way "diversity" has.

Thomas Sowell

GR4U - Honestly, this man has more good sense in his little finger than can be found in the entire city of Washington DC.

Observations of the debate



I was recently asked if I watched the debate.  My response to the lady was:


Oh I didn't watch it Miss Shirley. Even at my tender age of 51 I have learned that what politicians say is meaningless. And this is true of both parties and extends from Mayor up thru the President. These debates are nothing but dog and pony shows. Substance means little, truth means nothing, and image carries the day. Frankly I am nauseated by both candidates.
I hear that Obama was pitiful. But it won't matter. His sycophantic followers still worship him.


Nonetheless... the debate has made good grist for the humor mill as evidenced by this collection of tweets.

*This is a businessman, talking business, to a grad student. Obama should be taking notes and asking for an extension.
*Media coddled Captain Precious, and are now sad he got stomped. Sometimes beta males need to fight.
*Romney is killing it. Killing it. Seriously, this is a terrible wedding anniversary.
*Watching MSNBC discuss the debate is like watching the Titanic discuss the iceberg.
*Obama is rolling down a mountain like Homer Simpson hitting every rock along the way.
*I guess prepping with Joy Behar was a mistake.
*Obama is now like a Best Buy employee trying to sell you something he cannot fully explain.

If this performance had been from a republican candidate, the election would be decided right there.  As it is, Obama still has vote fraud to rely on.

Damn good sense here

No one at the nation level is saying what Alan Keyes is saying here.  Listening to this strengthens my personal resolve to NEVER again vote for the lesser of two evils.

Warnings of the coming crash are growing louder

David Stockman was Ronald Reagan's budget director, and I remember him as the once-upon-a-time bright young man of Washington. In this interview with CNBC talking heads he skewers both political party's fiscal strategy - and correctly points to the FED as a major root cause of the coming collapse.

Matthew Bracken, author of Enemies Foreign and Domestic, has penned an essay that provides what I believe is the MOST prescient glimpse of America's near future. Bracken has done his homework to understand both the historic and economic basis for his predictions - and as a former Navy SEAL he has an excellent understanding of tactics and strategy.

Wall Street executives are retiring in record numbers all of a sudden. So many in fact that it's been noticed and someone has taken the time to list them here. What do they know that we don't know?

That slimy globalist George Soros has made a major change in his portfolio recently. What does he know that we don't know.

My friends, these things warrant serious consideration.

Got ammo?


One more thing that government should take credit for

The Marxist-in-Chief recently espoused the notion that small business owners owe government credit for everything they have built. 

I wonder if the Mighty Kenyan will be as quick to take credit for the government’s role in James Holmes building his weaponsand ammo stash?

What Boortz said

There much that comes out of the mouth of Neal Boortz that I stridently disagree with (abortion, Confederate Flag, gays, Christianity, etc.), but every now and then that guy nails it squarely on the head. Here’s his 4th of July rant, and he calls it – right on the money. Americans love security more than Liberty!

Tomorrow is known as Independence Day, not Dependence Day. This is a day we celebrate the Declaration of Independence … proclaiming our independence from Great Britain and the heavy-handed governance King George was inflicting on the colonies. Now we have durned near half of the voters in this country not only supporting, but celebrating another ruler (his words, not mine) who governs with every bit the heavy handedness of the British King we fought for liberty 236 year ago.


My beef with the 4th of July is that so many of the people who go to such great lengths to celebrate this holiday – perhaps even a majority – are much more tuned in to dependence rather than independence, and security rather than freedom. There’s a reason the word “security” beats “freedom” by a 9:1 margin in presidential speeches.

There more, and it's worth your time to read it. Go here for the rest.

Obama continues the practice of pissing off our allies

The Poles aren't too happy with Obama right now.  Seems he referred to "Polish Death Camps".

They are demanding an apology - and rightfully so in my opionion.
