Michael Jackson, upon arriving at the pearly gates,
discovered that he was once again black.

Dismayed, he looked beyond the pearly gates and asked what
could be done to bring his whiteness back?

Suddenly a little cloud appeared, and out of the cloud
there was a poof ..................


"HI! BILLY MAYS HERE ....., WITH OXYCLEAN!"

February 22, 1932-- August 25, 2009


The "Lion of the Senate" has died.

About Change

There's an old sea story in the Navy about a ship's Captain who inspected
his sailors, and afterward told the Chief Bosun that his men smelled bad.


The Captain suggested perhaps it would help if the sailors would change
their underwear occasionally. The Chief responded, "Aye, aye sir, I'll see to
it immediately!"

The Chief went straight to the sailors berth deck and announced, "The
Captain thinks you guys smell bad and wants you to change your underwear.
"Pittman, you change with Jones, McCarthy, you change with Witkowski, and
Brown, you change with Schultz. Now get to it!!!"


THE MORAL:
Someone may be promising "change" in Washington, but don't count on
things smelling any better!

AMA weighs in on ObamaCare

Apparently the American Medical Association has weighed in on
the new Health Care Initiatives from the Obama Administration....
The Allergists voted to scratch it, but the Dermatologists
advised not to make any rash moves..
The Gastroenterologists had sort of a gut feeling about it, but
the Neurologists thought the Administration had a lot of nerve.
The Obstetricians felt they were all laboring under a
misconception. Ophthalmologists considered the idea shortsighted.
Pathologists yelled, "Over my dead body!" while the
Pediatricians said, 'Oh, Grow up!'
Oncologists fear it's malignant, while Osteopaths see it as
holistic.
The Psychiatrists thought the whole idea was madness, while the
Radiologists could see right through it.
Surgeons decided to wash their hands of the whole thing.. The
Internists thought it was a bitter pill to swallow, and the Plastic
Surgeons said, "This puts a whole new face on the matter."
The Podiatrists thought it was a step forward, but the
Urologists were pissed off at the whole idea.
The Anesthesiologists thought the whole idea was a gas, and the
Cardiologists didn't have the heart to say no.
In the end, the Proctologists won out, leaving the entire
decision up to the assholes in Washington ..

The Woman Balloonist

A woman in a hot air balloon realized she was lost. She lowered her
altitude and spotted a man in a boat below. She shouted to him, "Excuse
me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago,
but I don't know where I am."

The man consulted his portable GPS and replied, "You're in a hot air
balloon, approximately 30 feet above ground elevation of 2,346 feet
above sea level. You are at 31 degrees, 14..97 minutes north latitude
and 100 degrees, 49 .09 minutes west longitude."

"She rolled her eyes and said, "You must be a Republican." "I am,"
replied the man. "How did you know?"

"Well," answered the balloonist, "everything you told me is technically
correct. But I have no idea what to do with your information, and I'm
still lost. Frankly, you've not been much help to me."

The man smiled and responded, "You must be an Obama Democrat." "I am,"
replied the balloonist. "How did you know?"

"Well," said the man, "you don't know where you are or where you are
going. You've risen to where you are, due to a large quantity of hot
air. You made a promise you have no idea how to keep, and you expect me
to solve your problem. You're in exactly the same position you were in
before we met, but somehow, now it's my fault."

Quotes of the Day

Two Quotes to Ponder:

"Life's tough......it's even tougher if you're stupid." -- John Wayne


"We live in the greatest nation in the history of the world.
I hope you'll join with me as we try to change it." -- Barack Obama

Unfortunately, we are now beginning to understand what the second one means and what the first says about us.

Quote of the Day

We are Gods partners in matters of life and death. --Barrack Hussein Obama

The Poseur in Chief made the above statement in a conference call with the Religion Action Center of Reform Judaism, which is comprised of roughly 1,000 Rabbis of varying sects of Judaism, saying that he would need their assistance in getting "significant" health-care reform passed.

Tell me, thou high and mighty pundits from Lunaville Left, what was that you said about President Bush when he tried to start some faith-based poverty programs?
Separation of Church and State, I believe, was the theme of the ranting?
So just what would you call this?!?! Not to mention the fact that, unlike President Bush, he had the unmitigated gall to essentially, place himself on an equal partnership footing with God? I'm not religious by hardly any normal definition of the term, but even I observed this as a demonstration of hubris unequaled by any other politician in my lifetime. It was also reported by one of the participants that the hold music prior to the call being opened was the music used for the Third Reich's anthem, Deutchland uber Alles !!
Yes, I'm aware the music itself is really Op 76 No 3 "Emperor" string quartet in C. by Hayden; it's a lovely piece of music and was only appropriated by the Nazi regime for it's anthem with words attached to it entirely unrelated to the music...as was the "twisted cross" symbol of the Regime; but to play music with such connotations attached to it by that foul Regime to a group of JEWS ?!?)

Is this man just TRYING to find rock bottom in his demonstrations of naivete, hubris, or plain pathological stupidity?

BTW...if those "death panels" in the ObamaCare proposals that were decried by many, such as Sarah Palin, were truly non-existent, (at least as a possibility) just what did Teh WON mean about "WE (the government and religious leaders) being the ones to make life and death decisions" in regard to health care?

I just hope he remembers, THIS time, the Jews WILL be armed, and the general population will be standing shoulder to shoulder with them.

Greed? Or enlightened Self-Interest?

Milton Friedman sets Phil Donahue straight.

I wonder what Friedman would have thought about pResident Obama, I'm sure the Obamabots would have clogged up Flag@whitehouse.gov, denouncing him for spreading "fishy" rumors about how ObamaCare was fiscally unsustainable...

Life in the Nursing Home

Ethel was a bit of a demon in her wheelchair, and loved to charge around the nursing home, taking corners on one wheel and getting up to maximum speed on the long corridors.


Because the poor woman was one sandwich short of a picnic ' the other residents tolerated her and some of them actually joined in.

One day Ethel was speeding up one corridor when a door opened and Kooky Clarence stepped out with his arm outstretched. 'STOP!' he shouted in a firm voice. 'Have you got a license for that thing?'

Ethel fished around in her handbag and pulled out a Kit Kat wrapper and held it up to him. 'OK' he said, and away Ethel sped down the hall.

As she took the corner near the TV lounge on one wheel, weird Harold popped out in front of her and shouted 'STOP! Have you got proof of insurance?'


Ethel dug into her handbag, pulled out a drink coaster and held it up to him. Harold nodded and said 'On your way, Ma'am.'

As Ethel neared the final corridor, Crazy Craig stepped out in front of her, Butt- Naked, and holding his 'You-Know-What' in his hand.


Oh, good grief,' yelled Ethel, 'Not that Damn Breathalyzer Test again!

R.I.P.

A music legend died yesterday. Inventor and musician Lester William Polsfuss, died at White Plains Hospital of complications from Pneumonia. He was 94 years young.

So what you say? Are you a fan of Rock and Roll music? Heavy Metal? Country? Blues?, Jazz? If you enjoy any of these forms of entertainment, you owe a great debt to Mr. Polsfuss.

Better known as Les Paul, Mr. Polsfuss was the inventor of the solid body electric guitar, and was the leading developer of multitrack recording techniques
used by almost every recording musician in the world today. He is also credited with inventing or discovering many recording innovations including overdubbing (also known as sound on sound), delay effects such as tape delay, phasing effects, and multitrack recording.

His innovative talents extended into his own playing style, including licks, trills, chording sequences, fretting techniques and timing, which set him apart from his contemporaries and inspired many of the guitarists down to the present day.

In 1941,Les Paul introduced the first solid body electric guitar in the world...the first prototype was a 4'x4" piece of wood with steel strings strung on it. He played the instrument in a local nightclub and was deemed "a nut" for doing it...He added wooden "wings" to what he termed "The Log" to make it look like a more conventional guitar shape and the rest is music history.
Gibson Guitars started marketing the Les Paul Guitar in 1952, and it quickly became THE standard in guitars for a new form of music in it's infancy, a little fad called "Rock and Roll".

Les Paul, along with his wife, Mary Ford, garnered 36 gold records playing with his new invention. They had two number one hits; "VayaCon Dios", and "How High the Moon". His active music career spanned almost 80 years, from 1928 to 2009.

Mr. Paul continued to be an active musician up until the end of his life, playing in various New York night spots. Stars such as Jimmy Page (Led Zepplin), Mark Knopfler (Dire Straits), Bruse Springsteen, and Eddie Van Halen would often sit in with him, paying due homage to the Maestro.

He truly left a great legacy that few can come close to matching.

Protesters are "right-wing Nuts"

Why is it that when protests are held by every Left wing America hating fringe group, the MSM media portrays them as being "freedom loving activists" but whenever a protest is held by those that merely want the Constitution to be held to that they are "out of touch" Rightwing wacko's ?

This pResident is proposing to nationalize one sixth of our GDP without so much as a question raised, and those questioning that trend are portrayed as "haters", "Racists", or worse.

Question the pResident? Unpatriotic! Dangerous! Un-American!

Yet look back over the last eight years and I challenge you to find a day where President Bush wasn't vilified by protesters, or worse, members of the MSM itself.

Remember this?
Photobucket
This is one of the signs that President Bush was greeted with by hostile protesters on a fund raising trip to Portland, Oregon, in August 2002. Patriotic? Mild?, Americanism at it's finest? I dun't theenk so, Lucy!

Those afflicted with a bad case of BDS are STILL blaming President Bush for everything under the sun from the economy to the heartbreak of psoriasis, six months after he's been out of power.

Accuse me of ODS if you will, at least I can point to FACTS WHY I detest the actions of the current occupant of the Oval Office, not some amorphous accusations that he's evil incarnate.

At least the anti-ObamaCare crowd isn't being paid to appear!

Quotes of the Day

"Education is useless without the Bible." "In my view, the Christian religion is the most important and one of the first things in which all children, under a free government ought to be instructed.... No truth is more evident to my mind than that the Christian religion must be the basis of any government intended to secure the rights and privileges of a free people." -- Noah Webster (In the forward of the 1828 Webster's American Dictionary)


"It is the duty of all men in society, publicly, and at stated seasons, to worship the SUPREME BEING, the great Creator and Preserver of the universe."-- John Adams

"The belief in a God All Powerful wise and good, is so essential to the moral order of the world and to the happiness of man, that arguments which enforce it cannot be drawn from too many sources nor adapted with too much solicitude to the different characters and capacities impressed with it."--James Madison


Really sounds like the Founders were really seriously concerned with a separation of Church and State, doesn't it?

For all the vigor that Secularists expound on this so-called "bedrock" principle in our Nation's public ethos, I defy them to show ONE example of that being demonstrated in ANY of our Founding documents, or by any public statement of ANY of the Founders. It simply doesn't exist. Religion was more a part of everyday life in that era, and the Founders had every expectation that that condition would remain to our modern day; they had no conception of separating their religious convictions from their public ones; indeed, their religious convictions formed the BASE for their public convictions and their subsequent actions.

They rebelled against England not because of some amorphous feeling of dissatisfaction, but because they felt that the Crown was infringing upon and denying them the rights that they considered to be their birthright gift from GOD.

In that one way, our Constitution is unique in all the world, as it enumerates certain basic rights that are bestowed on every Citizen by virtue of being a child of God, and that the State may not infringe upon. In other words; those rights are inherent, and are not bestowed to the People by the State, but by a Higher Authority. It also recognizes that Higher Authority to be greater than the power of the State itself.

I believe that this is the greatest cause of the divisions we are experiencing in our political arguments today; a large segment of our political class have forgotten that they are NOT the be-all and end-all final Authority in the lives of our citizenry. Even those of our Citizens that do not profess any certain sect of religion still share in the common Ethos provided, in the most part, by the Judeo-Christian traditions and beliefs. Without that common ethos, the system begins to break down, and in the end, that lack of a common Ethos WILL lead to tyranny as surely as the sun rises in the East..

DAMN FINE EXPLANATION

The wife came home early and found her husband in their bedroom making love to a very attractive young woman.
And she was somewhat upset. 'You are a disrespectful pig!' she cried. 'How dare you do this to me -- a faithful wife, the mother of your children? I am leaving you... I want a divorce right away!'

And the husband replied, 'Hang on just a minute love so at least I can tell you what happened.' 'Fine, go ahead,' she sobbed,' but they will be the last words you will say to me!
And the husband began -- 'Well, I was getting into the
car to drive home, and this young lady here asked me for a lift. She looked so down and out and defenseless that I took pity on her and let her into the car.
I noticed that she was very thin, not well dressed, and very dirty. She told me that she had not eaten for three days.

So, in my compassion, I brought her home and warmed up the enchiladas I made for you last night, the ones you would not eat because you're afraid you'll put on weight. The poor thing devoured them in moments.

Since she needed a good clean up, I suggested a shower, and while she was doing that, I noticed her clothes were dirty and full of holes, so I threw them away. Then, as she needed clothes, I gave her the designer jeans that you have had for a few years, but
do not wear because you say they are too tight. I also gave her the underwear that was your anniversary present, which you do not wear because I do not have good taste.

I found the sexy blouse my sister gave you for Christmas that you don't wear just to annoy her, and I also donated those boots you bought at the expensive boutique and don't wear because someone at work has a pair the same. The husband took a quick breath and continued - 'She was so grateful for my understanding and help that as I walked her to the door, she turned to me with tears in her eyes and said,


'Please ...

Do you have anything else that your wife doesn't use?


******************************************************************

The moral of this story is that while men just MAY be dogs (it's just our nature) women need to keep the puppies happy and they will not stray far from the yard; ignore and abuse them at your own peril.

OR

Use it or lose it!

The Robot Bartender

A man walked into a very high-tech bar. As he sat down on a stool he
noticed that the bartender was a robot. The robot clicked to attention and
asked, "Sir, what will you have?"

The man thought a moment then replied, "A martini please."

The robot clicked a couple of times and mixed the best martini the man
had ever had.

The robot then asked, "Sir, what is your IQ?"

The man answered "oh, about 164."

The robot then proceeded to discuss the 'theory of relativity',
'inter-steller space travel', 'the latest medical break throughs',
etc.......

The man was most impressed. He left the bar but thought he would try a
different tact. He returned and took a seat. Again the robot clicked
and asked what he would have? "A Martini please."

Again it was superb. The robot again asked "what is your IQ sir?"

This time the man answered, "Oh about 100". So the robot started
discussing Nascar racing, the latest basketball scores, and what to expect the
Dodgers to do this weekend.

The guy had to try it one more time. So he left, returned and took a
stool.... Again a martini, and the question, "What is your IQ?"??

This time the man drawled out "Uh..... bout 50".

The robot clicked then leaned close and very slowly asked,

.....................

"A-r-e? y-o-u-r? p-e-o-p-l-e??? h-a-p-p-y? w-i-t-h O-B-A-M-A?????

Just Rambling

I don't have much to say today, nothing that I haven't already said at one point or another. My rant muse seems to have taken a vacation at the moment; I read all the BS that our Dear Leader is espousing and I just can't seem to come up with anything new to write about it that hasn't already been said much better by others.

I just can't afford to let my blood pressure get to the astronomical proportions it achieves every time I try to plumb the depths of Teh WON's perfidity.

That takes care of politics. The weather today seems to be pretty fair, if hot...I may take a cruise on the GoldWing and see if there are scattered T-storms in the area; the one sure way to find rain is to either wash your car, or ride your motorcycle, and since I don't care to wash the car, the ride it is...

Be back later, go have fun and don't spend so much time at your keyboard; Summer is fast approaching it's end, and you'll have plenty of opportunity to be online when the cold winds begin to blow.

Ronald Magnus Speaks

Take the time to watch this speech from the 1964 GOP Convention. Ronald Reagan had it right then, and if you really LISTEN, you'll see just how far astray Teh WON is trying to take us. In 2010 we will face a vital decision; whether to continue down the path of Socialism, or try to return to the strong roots our Founders laid down for us. A Time of Choosing, indeed.

You might want to notice that there is no teleprompter present either...for all that the Left lauds the oratory skills of the Obamatron, ask yourself; when was the last time he spoke in public without that (to him) vital aid. He even uses them in press conferences, the first First Executive to ever do so.

Too bad most of the rest of Holly-weird don't know, or care, about REAL American values; they just flit to and fro from whatever cause is most fashionable at the moment, no matter what the real consequences deriving from those causes are.
