So I gotta ask a favor:

If you order Christmas presents through Amazon, will you take the time to do it via the link from my page over there on the left side:

If you do so, I earn a commission, at no cost to you.

Thanks in advance.

Since you feel that the law doesn’t do what you promised us it would (and assuming that you weren’t lying to us then just to get re-elected) then you really don’t know what the “Affordable Care Act” will do….do you?

I mean, setting aside “We have to pass it to find out whats in it” and all that other shit…

Since you really don’t know the ramifications of the enactment of this piece of legislation, and since you can’t even make a computer program and website work….

Shouldn’t we repeal or at least put on hold the entire thing until we DO know how it will affect all the citizens of the United States? Especially those who are paying the bill for the rest?

Or are you a liar? A lying scumbag socialist who wants to destroy the healthcare industry?

I make it 50-50 either way.

While I have a LOT to say…..the thanks that my life in this country is, for the most part, lived in (relative) freedom….that I don’t have to fear for my life (or, so far, my government) and that I don’t speak German, or Japanese or Russian (or have to, because they run my country)….That I really have little to fear from Jihadists or Communists or Fascists:

It is likely that others in the Blogosphere will say it better and more eloquently. They will use better words and phrases, and will do so with greater literary talent than I have.

So just let me say, from my heart:

Thank you.

It is because of your and your comrades service…and sometimes sacrifice…that the first paragraph of this post is true. We, as a nation often forget that. We fail to appreciate the folks who prepare for war, yet hope that it never comes.

In WWII the women (who stayed home) proudly bore triangles with stars lapel pins and flew Service Flags for each family member who was serving. That tradition somehow died and we, as a nation have lost something since.

But please, allow me, living the good life because of you and those who served before you, to express my gratitude for your service.

or anyone who isn’t Law Enforcement, there’d be a fine and likely jail time.

Failure to Secure a high capacity firearm is punishable by up to 10 years in prison and up to a $10,000 fine. 

No charges have yet been filed. But $20K of the taxpayers money was spent to recover the weapons.

Cops….like you and me and other citizens…., only better and more privileged.

Real life Calvin and Hobbes. 

Marines!

Today is the day of their founding…

Heh,

WHile the police were following proceedure, someone’s family decided that they could do a better job.

And DID.

Nice work.

And the best part? No charges.
