or not.

But THIS is a heartwarming tale.

Go, read. Think. 

So it would seem that the NAACP folks in South Carolina are easily offended….

In order to use the State Capitol steps, and not make anyone quake in their shoes Pee themselves in fear have the vapors seeing a president who owned slaves 200+ years ago, the Anti white rally Anti confederate flag protest organizers placed a box in front of a bronze statue of President Washington.

What, really, did they accomplish here? Insulting someone? Hiding from the history of this country? No one can change who our first (white) president was. Yes, he was a slave owner. Yes, he no doubt did many things that were, by todays standards, less than good.

Deal with the past. Hiding from it will not make it go away. The fact that many of the attendees freely travelled thousands of miles to be at the trally shows that things are NOT like they were 235 + years ago. Think of it. Hundreds of black people travelled thousands of miles, freely….Unmolested. Yet they feel they are still opppressed. They were able to travel to this rally, yet they are economically disadvantaged.

I am offended that they chose to hide the statue of our first president, as if by doing so they can erase history.

You can see the press picture of the box here. Others think it is because Washington was white, not that he was a slaveowner. Might be right

Now, if they just had one that says “Don’t tread on me”.

Seems that the RNC has a new leader.

Mr.Steele: good riddance. Thank you for your service. We won’t be lamenting your departure.

Mr. Priebus: Remember how the RNC lost so many donors. We want conservatives, not Democrat Lite. Support conservative candidates who support conservative ideals. Remove support from RINOs. You’ll get more votes and a hell of a lot more money if you do so. RINOs will lead you to more people departing from the Republican Party. Conservative candidates will more than likely win. 

Remember: We didn’t vote Republicans in, we voted liberals and Democrats OUT. We want CONSERVATIVE candidates. Less government, less spending, more freedom. It isn’t that hard to understand. If you have questions, email me and I will explain further.

Seriously, this is your chance. Please, don’t blow it.

A question:

We have seen absolutely ZERO footage of the mobs looting in the flooded areas in Australia. No reports of gangs of people looting stores for  big screen TVs, DVD players, shoes etc.

It would seem that everyone is doing what they can to help each other out.

And this from folks whose ancestors were inmates in what was once a prison colony…..

Yet it happens here in the US all the time. Looting, theft. etc. Any time there is any disaster…even a major power outage. Looting happens at the slightest suggestion of civil unrest, or anytime the po-po might be occupied elsewhere.

It could be that there is simply no coverage of the looting, but I doubt that. I think that there is no (or very little) looting.

If so, then I have to ask, what is up with the folks in the US?

I really don’t want to go there, ….where the obvious answer is.

Seems that AZ has enacted emergency legislation to prevent anyone from protesting at a funeral.

I seriously am of two minds about this:

On the one hand, eventually someone is going to take offense enough of these asswipes and either beat them to death, or do a physics experiment on projectile deformation and deceleration using them as a subject. Eventually Darwin will find them and deal with them accordingly. They have no shame, no taste, and no class.

On the other hand, this is a serious affront to the First Amendment.

Slippery slope and all that. Me? I’d make sure that the police were occupied elsewhere. Who knows what might happen???  I do, however think that this is a bad idea.

If the colors were reversed?

The outcry would be loud, shrill, and unceasing…..

and, no doubt, there would be calls for additional legislation to prevent this. And reparations….

Where is Jesse Jackson on this? I mean, race based hate crimes…..

I mean, white is a color too, right?

Why the Left Projects.

What more can you say?

It’s either that or they are lying.

If this is true:

Jared Loughner has been making death threats by phone to many people in Pima County including staff of Pima Community College, radio personalities and local bloggers. When Pima County Sheriff’s Office was informed, his deputies assured the victims that he was being well managed by the mental health system. It was also suggested that further pressing of charges would be unnecessary and probably cause more problems than it solved as Jared Loughner has a family member that works for Pima County. Amy Loughner is a Natural Resource specialist for the Pima County Parks and Recreation.

Read the whole thing.

If true, then he and his department are culpable in these deaths. And it is folks like them that make the NICS check worthless.

Will the MSM bother to investigate?
OK, stop laughing….This is not funny.

Y’ see….I had a Ipod. The “Classic” model….. I liked it…then a few years ago, I got an Ipod Touch for Christmas…I liked that even better. I liked the apps, I liked the Wi-Fi. I liked a lot of the features.

So when my phone began to die, I naturally wanted an IPhone. I even waited, because there was no way in hell that I was going to sign up again with ATT for another 2 years (one experience with them was MORE than enough, thank you). I liked my current carrier, Verizon….I eagerly searched every rumor on the net to find out when your current contract exclusive with ATT expired….I waited for 6 months, hanging on every rumor that even hinted that Verizon was going to get the IPhone…..When I read that you had signed up again with ATT for another year of exclusivity, I stopped waiting.

I researched for alternatives….I needed another phone, and since I couldn’t get an IPhone on the carrier of my choice (Verizon), I looked at their offerings. I found Android. And It Was Good.

7 months ago, I purchased a DroidX…I liked it. It does everything I wanted my IPhone to do. It even syncs up to my ITunes library really nicely.  2 mouse clicks more, and I have all my music.  What do I need an IPhone for?

You ass. You could have had me become a real IPhone fanboi. Yet you teased, and hinted too long. I grew tired of waiting. I grew tired of the hints and the delays. I grew tired of feeling like the guy on a date with the c–ktease girl. I asked another girl to dance…..

Now Google Android phones are in the market. Once again, much like Apple computers were years ago, you will be relegated to a niche market. You let the world discover another option. Android will beat you. Your once world-class IPhone is now just another choice out of many. You could have been king of the world, yet you chose to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. You will sell many IPhones. No doubt the customers of ATT are salivating for the chance to jump to another carrier. Many of them will buy a Verizon-enabled IPhone. But the (millions?) rest of us have tasted the Android system. And we no longer want an IPhone. You pissed away a chance to dominate. I hope that ATT gave you lotsof cash to forgo all the money that you could have made from folks like me. I bet they didn’t pay you enough. The rest of us will buy Android. And you will lose more market share.

You are a fool. And you have lost. You just don’t know it yet. The downfall of the IPhone will become an example in Marketing 101 on How To Fail.   In 5 years or so, you will follow Blackberry and RIM into oblivion in the phone market.

You didn’t have to.  But you will.
