Quote of the Day


"Self-control is what makes a good shot. Self-control is also what makes a good man. The two ideas are not necessarily coincident, but there is a connection."

Quote(s) of the Day

Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same. --Ronald Reagan


A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor and bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government.
Thomas Jefferson

Dependence begets subservience and venality, suffocates the germ of virtue, and prepares fit tools for the designs of ambition.
Thomas Jefferson

(square these two quotes with: "We're going to take things away from you on behalf of the common good." AND " We must stop thinking of the individual and start thinking about what is best for society." -- Hillary Clinton)

And in light of the Bosnia 96' "misspoken" claim of sniper fire and the revelation of her 30+ year old examples of malfeasance and dishonesty, I think this quote shows Her Cankledness's true hubris:

"The American people are tired of liars and people who pretend to be something they're not." -- Hillary Clinton

Indeed, we are tired of your involvement in Whitewater, Travelgate, the FBI Files scandal, Cattle Futures scandal...atcetera,etcetera,etcetera.
Mrs Clinton,if you had the slightest shred of decency you would retire from public life and try to redeem yourself by actually helping society in a truly useful capacity ....might I suggest street sweeping?

Hillary Clinton is a LIAR

Hillary Clinton is a LIAR. She has always been a LIAR and she will always be a LIAR. That does sound like slander, but the truth is always the best defense against that charge, and one only needs to have paid only desultory attention to the antics in the White House during the Clinton Administration to know the truth of the allegations against her.

Further, Hillary was a LIAR even before joining up with Mr. "I-did-NOT-have-sex-with-that-woman" Clinton.

Just a taste:

Zeifman says he was urged by top committee members to keep a diary of everything that was happening. He did so, and still has the diary if anyone wants to check the veracity of his story. Certainly, he could not have known in 1974 that diary entries about a young lawyer named Hillary Rodham would be of interest to anyone 34 years later.

But they show that the pattern of lies, deceit, fabrications and unethical behavior was established long ago long before the Bosnia lie, and indeed, even before cattle futures, Travelgate and Whitewater for the woman who is still asking us to make her president of the United States.

One might argue that to be successful in politics it is an asset to be a proficient liar, or at least be comfortable with "flexible truth", but note that modifier "proficient"; Hillary is anything but proficient, she has been found out every time there has been any scrutiny of any of her less than straight dealings. It's only with a team of capable political machine of spin-masters and with a colluding MSM that she's escaped being pilloried in the past for her confabulations, because if she went down, the Progressives darling Bill went down with her.

It's a different ballgame now however, and as a certain Black (racist) Minister had observed in a different context, her "chickens have come home to roost".

While it really may be necessary to be flexible with the truth to be a successful politician in this day and age, it's still a necessity to be capable enough to not be caught out in blatant lies every time your actions are examined to remain successful as a politician, we still want the appearance of a "straight shooter" even as we acknowledge the fallibility of our elected leaders with regards to the truth.

Quote(s) of the Day

"Its getting nasty. Hillary and Barack really going at it. Theyre insulting each other, trading barbs, attacking each others credibility. In fact, the only break they take from attacking each other is when they promise the American people, if elected, they can unite the country." -- Jay Leno


"About this business of Hillary coming under intense sniping, I have some sympathy. The Clintons got away with this sort of thing for so long that you cant blame them for wondering how they missed the memo advising that henceforth the old rules no longer apply.Mark Steyn

"I am not criticizing Democrats for being partisan; Im suggesting they are cynically insincere or grossly self-deceived when they pretend to aspire to bipartisanship. They dont seek compromise; they want the unopposed implementation of their unadulterated liberal agenda.DavidLimbaugh

I would like to electrocute everyone who uses the word fair in connection with income tax policies.William F. Buckley Jr.

What a difference a new congress made

When the Republicans were in charge of Congress, it seemed they didn't do
much. Democrats took over in 2006 based on "change," a mantra echoed in
their current Presidential campaign slogans. But, perhaps we underestimated
those Republicans -- see below.

What a difference a new congress made.........

A little over one year ago:

1) Consumer confidence stood at a 2 1/2 year high;
2) Regular gasoline sold for $2.19 a gallon
3) the unemployment rate was 4.5%.

Since voting in a Democratic Congress in 2006 we've seen:

1) Consumer confidence plummet;
2) the cost of regular gasoline soar to over $3 a gallon;
3) Unemployment is up to 5% (a 10% increase);
4) American households have seen $2.3 trillion in equity value evaporate
(stock and mutual fund losses);
5) Americans have seen their home equity drop by $1.2 trillion dollars;
6) 1% of American homes are in foreclosure.

America voted for change in 2006, and we got it!

Want more of their "change"???

News as Shillery sees says imagines it

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, who has been accused in recent days of padding her foreign policy rsum while First Lady, admitted today that she may have exaggerated about an encounter she said she had with al-Qaeda terror mastermind Osama bin Laden in 1998. In an appearance on NBCs Meet the Press on Sunday, Sen. Clinton told host Tim Russert, I wrestled bin Laden in his cave in 1998 and had him pinned to the ground before the bastard got away. But a review of Sen. Clintons official White House schedule from that period revealed that the then-First Lady was nowhere in the vicinity of Mr. bin Laden on that day, but was instead greeting a group of honor roll students at Disney World in Orlando. I may have misspoke about what went on that particular day, Sen. Clinton said today. But it was a very busy time for me, what with having that knife-fight with Kim Jong-Il and all. Reporters peppered Sen. Clintons new press spokesman with questions about another purported exploit of hers, in which the senator claimed that she and a ragtag team of blue-collar drillers deflected an asteroid on a collision course with the Earth.

Quote(s) of the Day

There is a class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongspartly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs. Booker T. Washington

Hmmm...can YOU say Jackson,Sharpton,Wright,Farrakahn, and Obama? I know you can.


"...you cannot build up years of dependence on government and dare call that hope. Ronald Reagan

Just what is Obama promising? His catchphrase is "Change and Hope". Yet he never really says WHAT changes he intends and leaves it implicit that HE is the hope.

Freedom is not a natural stateotherwise more people would be free. Tyranny, oppression, dictatorship and the denial of human rights are the norm for much of the planet. Mankinds lower nature dictates that far too many seek to reduce others to servitude in order to elevate themselves. President Bush has repeatedly said that freedom is a God-given right that resides in the heart of every human. Maybe, but sometimes one must fight to extract it from the hardened hearts of others who want it exclusively for themselves. Looking at the faces of those who have fallen and driving by Arlington National Cemetery, I am reminded of the cost of freedom. Those who died allow me to travel freely. Those who sacrificed everything invested in freedom for my family and yours so that we can all live our lives where we choose to live them and worship where, and however, we please. These are freedoms most of the world can only dream about. Cal Thomas

Pretty complete statement, nothing to add, except my personal observation that most on the "Progressive" side of the aisle, in their rush to be non-judgmentally PC and all-inclusive, don't seem to really comprehend just how lucky we as a nation are in our level of personal freedom, and that it's a very rare thing in the world as a whole.

BIRTHDAY REMINDER



This week we celebrate a special birthday!

Monica Lewinsky turned 34.

Can you believe it?

It seems like only yesterday she was crawling

around the White House on her hands and knees,

and putting everything in her mouth.

They grow up so fast, don't they ? ??? !!

Free Kittens

Little Suzy had a box of very small kittens that she was trying to give away, so she had them out on the street corner with a sign 'FREE KITTENS' next to them. Suddenly a long line of big black cars came up with a policeman on a motorcycle in front. The cars all stopped and a tall man stepped out from the biggest car. 'Hi, little girl, what do you have there in the box?' he asked.

'Kittens' Little Suzy says. 'They're so small, their eyes are not even open yet.'

'What kind of kittens are they?' he asked.

'Democrats' says Little Suzy. The tall man smiled, returned to his car and they drove away.

Sensing a good photo opportunity, Sen. Obama called his campaign manager and told him about the little girl with the kittens. It was planned that they would return the next day, have all the media there and tell everyone about these 'democrat' kittens.

The next day, Little Suzy is standing out on the corner with her box of kittens with the 'FREE KITTENS' sign and the big motorcade of black cars pulled up with all the vans and trucks from ABC, NBC, CBS and CNN. Everyone had their cameras ready and then Sen. Obama got out of his limo and walked up to Little Suzy. 'Now don't be frightened,' he said, I just want you to tell all these nice news people just what kind of kittens you're giving away today.'

'Yes sir,' Suzy said, 'they are all REPUBLICAN kittens.'

Taken by surprise, Sen. Obama said, 'But yesterday you told me they were DEMOCRATS.'

Little Suzy says, 'Yes, I know. But, today they have their eyes open.'

Some Democrats... are playing politics with [Iraq] and they are sending mixed signals to our troops and the enemy. President George W. Bush

Obama Idiot

We all know that politicos stage photo ops in furtherance of their campaigns, its just part of the process, and we don't really care too much, we know it's part of the game to make a candidate look like they really have the gravitas for the post they are running for....but I would think that any politician worth electing would at least take the trouble to make it LOOK like they know how to use a phone!

Iraq --Worth it?

The American Thinker has the best analysis of The Iraq war I've ever seen, written by James Lewis. Bravo Mr. Lewis.

I believed and still believe that President Bush did the correct thing in engaging Islamofacism in Iraq and Afghanistan. It has not been pretty, war never is; mistakes were made as in all human endeavours, but I truly believe that history will judge that it was the best that could be done at the time, given all the factors extent at the time.

Assassin's Test



The CIA had an opening for an assassin.

The CIA had an opening for an assassin. After all of the background checks, interviews, and testing were done there were three finalists two men and one woman. For the final test, the CIA agents took one of the men to a large metal door and handed him a gun.
We must know that you will follow your instructions, no matter what the circumstances. Inside this room you will find your wife sitting in a chair. You have to kill her. The first man said.You cant be serious. I could never shoot my wife,

The agent replies, Then youre not the right man for this job."

The second man was given the same instructions. He took the gun and went into the room. All was quiet for about five minutes. Then the agent came out with tears in his eyes. I tried, but I cant kill my wife. The agent replies, You dont have what it takes. Take your wife and go home.

Finally, it was the womans turn. Only she was told to kill her husband. She took the gun and went into the room. Shots were heard, one shot after another. They heard screaming, crashing, banging on the walls. After a few minutes, all was quiet. The door opened slowly and there stood the woman. She wiped the sweat from her brow and said, You guys didnt tell me the gun was loaded with blanks. So I had to beat him to death with the chair.

Another of Einstein's Theories

Einstein was born March 14, 1879. He would be 128 if he were alive today. Few people remember that the Nobel Prize winner married his cousin, Elsa Lowenthal, after his first marriage dissolved in 1919. At the time he stated that he was attracted to Elsa because she was so well endowed. He postulated that if you are attracted to women with large breasts, theattraction is even stronger if there is a DNA connection. This came to be know as.......

Obamarama

With all the to-do about Barack Hussein Obama's 20 year affiliation with a Hate-spewing, bigoted, racist and America-hating "Reverend", I wanted to say something about how I felt, but I just couldn't find the right words.

Then I had the good fortune to read the following at Theodore's World, so I did what any hack does, I stole borrowed it.

Thank You Chrissie, for all the good materiel you post, and all the good you do for our Veterans.


An Obamanation

Its unfair the Obamatons howl,
To charge guilt by association;
Our boy has committed no foul;
Hes just one of the congregation.
While sitting there twenty long years,
As the reverend spewed out his odium,
Naught wafted into those large ears,
But spittle and froth from the podium?

No such tirades did I ever see,
Says Obama now that its news;
No rants about AIDS heard by me,
Nor venomous bile aimed at Jews.
You cherry pick dribbles and bites
From sermons of many long years;
You say my preacher hates whites?
My goodness thats news to my ears!

But a man picks a church like a wife,
As a comfortable mate for his soul,
With commonly shared views of life;
They are parts of the man as a whole.
So Obama is welcome to try
To convince us that his soul is pure,
But its just a political lie;
He buys into his preachers manure.

Why else then sit in that church pew,
With children and wife at your side?
If you truly do not share the world view,
Of your hate-spewing spiritual guide?
Yet now you denounce Jeremiah,
In your quest for power and station;
Hes a conveniently banished pariah;
Barack, youre an Obamanation.
