Rats leaving the sinking ship?

CNBC reports that Kathleen Sebelius is resigning.

I guess that Obamacare isn’t doing enough and she needs another place to fail…

Or another agenda to LIE about…

IMO, Were it a just world, she would be shot for treason, after a good and fair trial…Then hung on the white house gates so as to be a lesson to others.

History will remember he name as one of the enablers of quite possibly the most damaging legislation in the history of the United States. 

Perhaps she is leaving before things get all wobbly. 

It is accelerating again:

The protesters are growing less compliant.

And the BLM cops are afraid. Watch the video. It shows

I expect that since the BLM boys are outnumbered about 2:1, that at some point someone on the protesters side is gonna strike one of ’em, and at that point things will go all pear shaped.

The cops are gonna react, and draw guns, and then the other side is gonna do the same.

I hope not, but I foresee this happening of someone doesn’t back off.

Not sure what the laws are in Nevada regarding the carriage of long guns, and the open carry rules aren’t clear, but at some point a protester is gonna use one if the police continue. If a protester is shot, or a cop, then it’ll become real war.

I’d hate to see that happen, Hate to see a cop (or a protester) get hurt or killed…. but I think if it does happen it’ll change a lot of attitudes. I wonder if Mr. Bundy is willing to see anyone killed for his principles? I wonder if the cops are willing to get killed for their bosses position (or are willing to kill for someone else’s principle)?

I notice that these protesters seem to know all the tricks…How far to push the police, and how to counter the Tazers and a lot of other tricks….Are they professional protesters? Or are they friends, neighbors and family? It makes a difference. One would ask what a pregnant woman is doing on the front line of such a protest (if she is really pregnant).

One point:
 The BLM refuses to manage the overpopulation  of wild horses and burros that has been an issue for years, the excess horses outnumber the cattle and are as “harmful” to the desert tortoises as the Bundy’s cattle are. But they claim they don’t have the money to round up the horses…but they have the money to round up the cattle.

**ETA: Republican Gov. Brian Sandoval pointed earlier to what he called “an atmosphere of intimidation,” resulting from the roundup and said he believed constitutional rights were being trampled.

But, sadly, the good Governor isn’t willing to do anything about the overreaching feds…

And yet, the police do it all the time….

Former firefighter acquitted after mistaking police for burglars.

Seems he heard noises and saw shapes in his neighbors yard and took his firearm with him to investigate.

It were the Po-Po, who took offense at being interrupted while searching for a suspect, and the fact that a citizen had a gun (We are talking New Jersey here…)

Anyway, they claim he pointed it at them. He claims otherwise.

But the money quote?

“I just don’t see how people can grab a shotgun and rack it and stand on their front porch and point it at someone,” said Pennsville Police Chief AJ Cummings.

Yet how many times a day does a cop draw on a person whom they have no reason to believe is a danger?

“Only ones” and all that…..

If they had a fence to cross

Then they’d have known that they were on the wrong side of it…

“Those individuals were part of a counter-narcotics operation, which had taken place a few minutes prior on the Mexican side of the border. The two members of the Mexican army did not see any sign notifying them that they were crossing the border.”



Wrong side of the border…ok, I can accept that they, without any markings, might have made a mistake. 


But holding Customs and Border Patrol agents at gunpoint? 


Yeah, one wonders….


Were they escorting someone?


And is anyone working for Barry doing anything to keep this from happening again. 

101 year old mail

One might have thought that it had been handled by the USPS, having taken that long..

But no, it was a true message in a bottle, tossed into the sea in 1913. Held and returned by King Neptune.

Found by a fisherman, and returned to the descendant of the author of the postcard.
(which shows a great deal of integrity on the part of the fisherman, Konrad Fischer)

I wonder what paths the bottle took in that 101 years? Where did it go?

With all the talk

in the past few about the 2016 presidential candidates, I gotta say this:

If the Republican Party wants to have even a chance to win, they will NOT support a candidate like Jeb Bush.

Period.

If they do, they’ll guarantee a loss.

That simple.

 A LOT of folks voted for McCain, even when they had to hold their nose in order to do so. He frightened them less than Barry O did, so they made the best of the bad choices.

Then we had Mittens 4 years later. And fewer folks voted for him. Some held their nose, but really, many chose not to, and either didn’t vote or voted third party.

This left us with another 4 years of Mr. Soetoro.

Why, oh why, can’t the RNC figure it out? We need a clear difference in our choices. “Democrat Lite” won’t get people to vote for someone with an “(R)” after their name.

And unless we vote (and vote smarter), we are NEVER gonna find our way out of the swamp we are in.

More on the Bundy/BLM issue

HERE

If you read the article, you’ll find that apparently the rest of the counties in the state and neighboring counties in Utah want absolutely NOTHING to do with this. They don’t want the confiscated cattle even entering into their counties….for fear that the residents might get violent with the BLM agents.

I wish that I could join these folks

There are those who think that this is all about the Desert Tortise….But really, it is about control.
