I Stand WITH Israel!
I spent a larger than average chunk of time out and about yesterday, so I was able to listen to the radio off and on. I don’t normally listen at home, unless I remember to fire it up on the computer. We don’t get much in the way of national stuff out here in Podunk. Thank goodness for the internet. Luckily, we have Sirius in the “cruck”, so I’m able to keep up once in a while. Contrary to what many think, I’m not listening to Rush, or Hannity, or anyone else while I’m tooling around. Nope, depending on the time of day, I’m catching John Gibson, Tom Sullivan, or Spencer Hughes. On the RARE occasion, I’m even up and out to listen to Brian & the Judge.
Anyway, when I finally got back in the ‘cruck’, the radio came on, and I heard that O had decided we don’t need no stinkin’ nukes! My very first thought: “Wow! Did that fool just invite Iran to bomb Israel?” His treatment of our ONLY ally in the Middle East has been down right embarrassing. Well, let’s face, his whole time in office has been an embarrassment, but that covers WAY too many topic, and right now, I’m focusing on Israel.
Must Remind Them – Oz Is Not the Center of the World
For reasons I won’t go into right now, I’m awake. It’s almost 3:30am. I don’t like this. So, while I’m waiting to get my eyeballs to droop, I decided I’d do a little “light” reading. Lo and behold, I come across another WAY off the mark column by that clown at the NYT, Krugman. You can read it if you want. Thanks, I’ve already read it, and would just as soon not have to do any of the copy and pasting, picking and choosing the most ridiculous parts to ‘anylize I wonder if he ever leaves his concrete citadel, and walks in the shoes of the REAL America? Sorry, I just don’t see places like NY, or L.A. as part of today’s America. The land of fantasy, and the land of the bona fide working man (and woman) do not jibe.
Dang!
Forgot to add this video to this post. Just in case you aren’t aware of the hatred on the left (been on another planet, have ya?), this should dispel any questions whatsoever! And this guy is just ONE example! There are SO many more! I don’t remember Rush, O’Reilly, or Beck EVER calling for the murder of ANYONE. They, NONE OF THEM, and many more, don’t advocate violence, OF ANY KIND!
HEY! YOU MORONIC SHIT FOR BRAINS! THE ONLY PEOPLE WHO HAVE “CREATED THIS ATMOSPHERE” ARE YOUR SLAVE MASTERS!
Hmmm… I wonder if I’m getting fed up with all this? What’cha think? 
HEY! DEMOCRATS!
Excuse me, but I’m rather sick of all the whining BS coming from Congress right now. Wanna get some donations? Try doing it on your own merit! Stop resorting to lies, distortions, and laying blame on Tea Party patriots!
Oh. Yikes! I forgot! Y’all HAVE no merit. No character. No ethics. NO CLASS!
I’d like to remind you leftards of something y’all so conveniently forget.
Death Threats Against Bush at Protests Ignored for Years
I’m still waiting for John Kerry to be prosecuted for threatening the life of the President of the United States!
Maher : You could have went to New Hampshire and killed two birds with one stone.
Kerry : Or, I could have gone to 1600 Pennsylvania and killed the real bird with one stone.
Now….
True, not exactly something I’d normally post, but with the sentiment fits……
Ol’ Broad Endorses THIS Bill
Not that any body gives a happy crap, but I thought I’d toss it out there.

Mock Us At Your Own Peril
Reflections on a National Disaster
by J.D. Longstreet
Dear US Reader:
Repealing ObamaCare will be a HUGE task for Americans. Can we do it now that the damage has been done?
There is no doubt that the Obama Regime has so damaged the US that it will take generations to repair those damages and recover. Some of the damage is permanent.
I remain of the opinion that the US will not survive another two decades as a single fifty-state entity. The differences are much too great for Americans to continue to live together in harmony as we have in the past. The wounds are too great and much too deep.
Mr. Obama has delivered on his promise to “fundamentally change America.” In his short time in office he has manage to drive a wedge between us that can never, in my opinion, be extricated.
I now reluctantly accept that Obama is a “transformational president.” The physical evidence is such that I can no longer deny it. All one has to do is look about. American went from a constitutional republic to a socialist state in just a few months under Mr. Obama’s Marxist rule.
Next time you have access to a dictionary, please look up the word “socialism.” The definition you see there will match what Obama has done to America to a “tee.” I checked several dictionaries before I used the word in the first article I wrote about the changeover in America to socialism.
Our friend and fellow blogger, Alan Caruba, has been reflecting on what has happened in America and the near impossibility of repealing ObamaCare and turning back the damage Obama and his minions have done to the once great constitutional republic called America. It is a sobering, thoughtful article, which will certainly have you mulling over what it means to have lost the freedom America has enjoyed since we gained our freedom from Great Britain. It is a must read for every American worried about the future of America. You will find Mr. Caruba’s piece directly below.

Yes, he’s a “transformational president” alright. But what is he transforming the nation into? I don’t recognize it. He mocks those of us who would oppose his ‘transformation’.
The actual transformation began a long time ago. We allowed the left to take over our educational system. They have been eroding our freedoms, little by little, year by year, through “feel good” legislation, most of which does nothing to improve the lives of anyone, yet gives power to those who have no right to have power over our lives.
We, on the right, are a peaceful bunch. Yes, there are right wing loons, as well as left wing radicals. Some people go off the deep end, but they have no connection with reality, or the people gathering at the town halls, the Tea Party rallies. If that were the case, then the left must lay claim to the eco-terrorists, that destroy private property, the anti-war groups that attack military recruiting centers, and advocate the murder of soldiers and officers.
To top it all off, they LIE, scoring political points, on the backs of hard working, HONEST voters.
2 Days Worth Of Glenn
I completely zoned linking Glenn’s show from the 24th. It was an extremely informative show, and I highly recommend watching it if you missed it, or if you saw it, watching it again.
Seems they have the embed codes back, so here is the show from yesterday, the 25th:
Rest In Peace
‘Hard on us all’
Crew killed as chopper crashes near Brownsville
A rotor blade and twisted, blackened metal contrasted with the rolling green wheat field where a medical helicopter crashed early Thursday, killing the crew on board.
“It is hard on all of us,” Studdard said, his unshaven face full of pain. “We were like a big, happy family. They were good people who were dedicated to their jobs.”
As Haywood County EMS director, Studdard worked with the three people killed – pilot Doug Phillips, of Bartlett, and flight nurses Cindy Parker, of Dyersburg, and Misty Oakley Brogdon, a Jackson native who recently moved to Medina.

(No photo available for pilot, Doug Phillips.)
The crew was returning to Hospital Wing’s base in Brownsville after taking a patient from Parsons to Jackson when the helicopter crashed in the field east of the Haywood Industrial Park.
The site of the crash is about 2 hours from where we are located. We had a horrible storm hit us around the same time. I couldn’t even imagine getting in a car, much less a helicopter. Those who do, are unbelievably brave. The men and women who work in EMS are heroes, in my book. Day in and day out, they put their lives on the line for others. Most calls are routine, but then you have some that do put them in harms way.
Those who work on the Life Flights, or whatever they are called in your area, are an amazing bunch. They risk their lives for others on a daily basis. Anyone who works in the field, fire fighters, volunteer or paid, all Emergency Medical Services, and police, are heroes! We should remember them, thank them, and thank God there are men and women who are willing to take up the shield.
My most sincere prayers, and thanks, are with the families of Cindy Parker, Misty Brogdon, and Doug Phillips. God Bless You!
Uh….
KELLY O’DONNELL: Just before the Senators cast their votes, they paused to honor the late Ted Kennedy.
SENATOR KENT CONRAD: I know that Senator Kennedy is looking down with an incredible smile on his face as well. Source
You gotta be freakin’ kidding! Looking down? More like looking UP….from the depths of HELL. And, as has been the case since 18 July 1969, Mary Jo was not available for comment.
Just A Reminder
From Instapundit:
REMEMBERING WHEN G.O.P. Offices Were Vandalized: “An apparent mob of vandals attacked the North Carolina Republican Party headquarters, causing minor smoke damage, breaking windows and leaving vulgar messages, police said.” I don’t remember a national panic over this, or over the bullet-riddled Bush/Cheney headquarters.
Then there was this episode. And, of course, this: “A group of protestors stormed and then ransacked a Bush-Cheney headquarters building in Orlando, Fla., Tuesday, according to Local 6 News.”
But those represented the righteous indignation of oppressed lefties, rather than the dangerous violence of nasty righties.
Oh, and let’s not forget this little tidbit, and who was behind it.
ObamaCare’s Endorsements
BREAKING NEWS: Major Health Care Bill Endorsements

Chaser:
- “Cuban revolutionary leader FIDEL CASTRO on Thursday declared passage of American health care reform ‘a miracle’ and a major victory for Obama’s presidency, but couldn’t help chide the United States for taking so long to enact what communist Cuba achieved decades ago.” (Paul Haven, “Cuban leader applauds US health-care reform bill,” Associated Press, 03/25/10)

First Shots Fired
Cantor Says Campaign Office Was Shot At, Accuses Dems of Exploiting Threats
Virginia Rep. Eric Cantor said Thursday that his Richmond campaign office has been shot at and that he’s received “threatening e-mails” — but at the same time the House minority whip accused top Democrats of trying to exploit the threats they’ve been receiving for “political gain.”
The Dems make up crap, cry racism, and are the first to be in front of the cameras at any perceived ‘threat’. Now, whether or not any of the incidents happened as the Dems have said, I have my doubts. They lie! For political gain! IF, however, any of the brick throwing actually happened, and IF anyone on the right committed these acts of violence, they should be condemned in the strongest of terms, and prosecuted. On the other hand, IF these acts are a set up, which I would NOT put past any of them, they they too, should be condemned, in the strongest of terms, and prosecuted.
Cantor said “a bullet was shot through the window” of his campaign office. The incident happened Monday, Fox News has learned, the latest in a rash of apparent threats and acts of intimidation against members of Congress. Most of the threats so far have been reported by Democrats, but Cantor — the No. 2 Republican in the House — is one of about 10 lawmakers who has asked for increased security protection, Fox News has learned.
This incident happened on Monday. Did Cantor go flying to the cameras? Not that I’m aware of, considering this is the first that anyone, outside of his staff, that heard of it.
Remember this people….WE DID NOT FIRE THE FIRST SHOT! We do not advocate a take over by violence, unlike the left.
We will retake our country from the libs>progressive>socialists>commies through peaceful means at the ballot box. If, through deception of the left, we are unable to accomplish a restoration of our U.S. Constitution, then, and ONLY then, will those on the right consider other means. However, do NOT expect us to stand idly by, while we are being attacked. We WILL defend ourselves!
So Simple……
……even current, AND future, members of Congress, the current AND future administrations, SHOULD be able to understand!
