Hey, Folks:

Monday is MEMORIAL Day. (although there are good reasons why it shouldn’t be today, but May 30) (I’ve written about movable holidays before and agree 100%)

Not Veteran’s day….That is in November.

Veterans Day is when we say thanks to all who served in the Military.

Memorial Day is for those who gave their all….the ones who didn’t come back.

If yer gonna say “thank you” to the folks for whom this day is for, then go to a cemetery. Take off yer hat, and think of those buried there who Didn’t Come Back.

I’m not saying that thanking a vet is ever a bad thing, but understand what this day is all about.

Remember those who gave their all in service of the country.

Think of them when you are grilling burgers on your deck, or spending time with friends or family, or just enjoying your third day of your three day weekend.

Take a moment, and remember them. Raise a glass, if you are so inclined…

But just don’t forget.

I won’t.

Thank you, wherever you are, wherever you fell. 

Interesting that the rules change

depending on the political party of the affected candidate…..

So 2 years ago, a different candidate was dropped from the ballot because he didn’t have enough valid signatures on his election petition.

OK, thems the rules.

Fast forward two years:  Obama appointed (isn’t that a surprise!) Judge Matthew Leitman decided to bend the rules and allow US Representative Conyers to be placed on the ballot despite not having enough valid signatures on HIS petition.

Now, the difference between the two candidates, other than 2 years,  is, of course, political party.

Republican Thad McCotter DIDN’T get on the ballot (in 2012), because he didn’t have enough valid signatures on his election petition.

Democrat John Conyers IS to be placed on the ballot in 2014, even though nearly half of his signatures are invalid.

Notice the difference? 

When the rules are not solid, but are, in fact, mutable, we no longer have a country of laws.

When they are applied differently to different people….

We have tyranny.

On “arsenals”

So the cops in New York (Brooklyn) break down some doors execute a search warrant at a Brooklyn apartment and find an “arsenal”.

Go ahead, read the description of what they found. Cartridges with no guns for them, even. And codeine tablets!!!!

“It was enough to arm a small army or militia,” a police source said of the bust. “These guys were ready for war.”

Arsenals.

Yeah, just wait ’til you find the real thing. Come out to the Midwest, find a real “arsenal” in homes. I mean, except for the carbine with a defaced serial number, we’ve got that and more. In our cars. Except for the codeine.

Arsenal. Right.]

A hint for the ladies:

No matter what you are wearing, no matter how provocative or revealing your outfit….Silky, clingy, form fitting etc.

No matter what color it is, no matter how well it matches your complexion, eyes, or hair color….

If your belly sticks out farther than your boobs, yer not sexy, period.

Few of us are underweight in this country, but if your spare tire’s circumference exceeds that of your chest, it ain’t sexy. If it is double the circumference, you are obese. Some men like “curvy” girls, but fat is fat.

We guys don’t expect you to have a flat belly like a supermodel, but seriously, drop the self delusion.
Look at yourself.

Hard to believe

That anyone, anyone, could be that stupid.

But then again, it is a liberal, or it wouldn’t have happened at all.

Glad to see the people of the community were able to make some sense happen, and get the cancellation canceled.

One would wonder how someone gets to that position without having the sense to think things through. Yeah, we all have bad judgement days, but really, if you are that bad, you don’t need to be in that position. Or any position which doesn’t require constant supervision and oversight.

Selective reporting

Example HERE

Hey, if it doesn’t affect the coastal population (either one) or someone’s vacation home, it isn’t news.

Much like the midwest winter storms don’t get any coverage, but if the east coast gets 6″ of snow, it is OMG!!! Bizzard!!! Catastrophe!

Same with the wildfires.

Loyalties

And racism.

Here’s the thing:

There is a large group in this country who care not for the COUNTRY, but rather for RACE.

Nope, not talking about Blacks, African-Americans, etc. Nope, not Vietnamese, Chinese, not any of the Asians. Not Middle Easterners either. Not  Irish, nor Germans, not Poles, none of the Europeans.

Nope, I am talking about Latinos….Now I am sure that there are a LOT of Latinos who are good citizens of this country…People who love the USA as much or more that I do. Many are likely better citizens that I am. (not that that is hard…)

However, in this group of people who we call Latinos, there are also a bunch of people who care little for the laws of this country, and who only care that other people who look like and speak like them are allowed in this country. Who only care that the people who share a culture with them are given free access to the things that make this a freedom loving nation of laws where people can succeed without being trodden in the dirt by their government and the richer people. That no matter how many laws they break, those people who look like, talk like and think like them get the benefits and freedoms that citizens are entitled to, without contributing anything to their country.

These people have no loyalty to their COUNTRY, only loyalty to their race. To those who speak like them, and have skin and features like them. They are racists. They hold race over country. Some are citizens. Some are not. Some of the people who give the non citizens a voice are also racists. 

When you would circumvent the laws of the country over and over, just so someone of your race and culture can benefit, when you will actively work to overturn laws which have kept this country well protected….then you are a racist. It’s not like these folks are actively working to have open borders so we can get millions of Irish people into the country, is it? If white people wanted to change the laws to chase you out, that would be as wrong, and as racist as you are…

So, people who want amnesty for the folks who look like them and talk like them……who care less about the laws of the country than that they can help people of their own race……To the detriment of the citizens of that country…IMO these people aren’t citizens…..

Yeah, I call ’em racist. And, actually, traitors.

Here is one of them.

Traitors once, long a go, used to be shot. Maybe we should bring that practice back.
