Immigration Madness

Dear George and other Republicans,

Since you obviously can't read polls, mail to your office and memos from your staff, here are some pictures. Have an aide read to you what is on the placards.

Amnesty Cloture: Paid To Play?

A good friend working on the Hill told me that arm twisting went on using the carrot and the stick method, but in a way that they had never seen before.

Republicans voting Yea.

Bennett (R-UT)
Bond (R-MO)
Brownback (R-KS)
Burr (R-NC)
Coleman (R-MN)
Collins (R-ME)
Craig (R-ID)
Domenici (R-NM)
Ensign (R-NV)
Graham (R-SC)
Gregg (R-NH)
Hagel (R-NE)
Kyl (R-AZ)
Lott (R-MS)
Lugar (R-IN)

McConnell (R-KY)
Murkowski (R-AK)
Snowe (R-ME)
Specter (R-PA)
Stevens (R-AK)
Voinovich (R-OH)
Warner (R-VA)

The person I spoke with in Voinovich's Senate office this morning sounded resigned when I called. He didn't even ask if I was in support or opposed to the cloture. He just said "I suppose you're opposed," He was right.

I hope it is worth it to them.

Amnesty Vote

Voinovich blows it again.

He voted with his good buddy Chuckie Schumer to give American citizenship away to 12+ million illegal immigrants.

They don't even know who these illegals are.

In a post 9/11 world that is a very scary and dumb thing to do.

64 votes. Four more than needed.

Really great work George.

We Are Not Worthy

We are stupid. Trust me on this. As are the many highly esteemed scientists speaking out against the "man made" theory of global warming by media star scientists.

So get with.

Three Quarters Believe Global Warming A 'Natural Occurrence'

ALMOST three quarters of people believe global warming is a 'natural
occurrence' and not a result of carbon emissions, a survey claimed
today.

This goes against the views of the vast majority of scientists who
believe the rise in the earth's temperatures is due to pollution. The online
study which polled nearly 4000 votes found that a staggering 71 percent of
people think that the rise in air temperature happens naturally. (emp.
mine)

And 65 percent think that scientists' catastrophic predictions if
pollution isn't curbed are 'far fetched'.

If you don't believe in the catastrophic predictions, then we must surmise that you just don't get it.

Where's your Oscar??

Voinovich, Immigration Tin Ear

Sen. Voinovich has to have heard of the great distaste Ohio has for the amnesty shamnesty bill that is being foisted on Congress with no debate and being foisted on the people as a real immigration solution.

Al Gore. Genius.

Harvard Graduated, Major- Government
Vanderbilt Divinity School, Quit
Vanderbilt Law School, Quit

Gore's Grades Belie Image of Studiousness

His School Transcripts Are a Lot Like Bush's Gore arrived at Harvard with an impressive 1355 SAT score, 625 verbal and 730 math, compared with Bush's 1206 total from 566 verbal and 640 math. In his sophomore year at Harvard, Gore's grades were lower than any semester recorded on Bush's transcript from Yale.
That was the year Gore's classmates remember him spending a notable
amount of time in the Dunster House basement lounge shooting pool, watching
television, eating hamburgers and occasionally smoking marijuana. His grades
temporarily reflected his mildly experimental mood, and alarmed his parents. He
received one D, one C-minus, two C's, two C-pluses and one B-minus, an effort
that placed him in the lower fifth of the class for the second year in a row.

For all of Gore's later fascination with science and technology, he
often struggled academically in those subjects. The political champion of the
natural world received that sophomore D in Natural Sciences 6 (Man's Place in
Nature) and then got a C-plus in Natural Sciences 118 his senior year. The
self-proclaimed inventor of the Internet avoided all courses in mathematics and
logic throughout college, despite his outstanding score on the math portion of
the SAT. As was the case with many of his classmates, his high school math
grades had dropped from A's to C's as he advanced from trigonometry to calculus
in his senior year.

When John C. Davis, a retired teacher and assistant headmaster at St.
Albans, was recently shown his illustrious former pupil's college board
achievement test scores, he inspected them closely with a magnifier and shook
his head, chuckling quietly at the science results.

"Four eighty-eight! Terrible" Davis declared upon inspecting the future
vice president's 488 score (out of a possible 800) in physics.

"Hmmmm. Chemistry. Five-nineteen. He didn't do too well in
chemistry."

Now I understand the brilliance behind his global warming expertise.

This brilliance allows Al to blame scientists for our "climate crisis".

Too little, too late: Gore blames scientists for climate crisis

In an extraordinary outburst aimed at America's failure to tackle
global warming, Al Gore says that if scientific agreement on the climate crisis
had been reached sooner it would have been easier to "galvanise the public and
persuade Congress to act".

The failed presidential candidate claims that the stronger
scientific consensus he knew was about to emerge meant "we in the US were about to shift into high gear in addressing the climate crisis". Mr Gore argues that
if he had made it to the White House, he would have been able to use the office
as a "bully pulpit" to achieve change.

"The nature and severity of the climate crisis had seemed painfully
obvious to me for quite a long time," claims Mr Gore, writing in a new foreword
to a revised edition of his book, Earth in the Balance, being published this
week.

In a swipe at the scientific community, he says: "I wish that we
could have had in the 1990s the deafening scientific consensus that has emerged
in more recent years."

That "deafening scientific consensus" may not be quite yet a din.

Is America Great Or What!!!

'ParkaPalooza' to raise funds for restrooms

Alexandria residents can enjoy a variety of music while eating high on

LARRY KING LANDS PARIS HILTON INTERVIEW

Ebert is a Dilbert, At Best

A Mighty Heart
Mariane Pearl reminds us in her book, and the movie reminds us, too,
that some 230 other journalists had lost their lives at the time of Pearl's
kidnapping, most of them during the conflict in Iraq. That means they
proportionately had a higher death rate than combat soldiers. That's partly
because they are ill-prepared for the risks they take and partly because they're
targets. The Americans who complain about "negative" news are the ideological cousins of those who shoot at CNN crews. The news is the news, good or bad, and those who resent being informed of it are pitiful. More Americans are well-informed about current sports and auto-racing statistics, I sometimes think, than anything else. (emp mine)

Did he say that, because I think the media's coverage of Iraq is biased by their liberal politics, hatred of Bush and deep distaste of the military, I am as bad a a terrorist? BBBut that would mean he thinks terrorists are? What? He doesn't. He just says that I am an ideological cousin.

I guessing here that he thinks I am bad if I "complain" about the media's "negative" news, so that must mean that Ebert thinks that terrorists are bad as well.

Sigh, I guess it is a little step for the media.

Reid, Pelosi Wronger Than Usual Which is Usual

Arrowhead Ripper: Surrender or Die

Battle for Baqubah22 June 07

...Our guys are winning. Al Qaeda is about to be strangled and pummeled to
death in this town, but the local Iraqi leadership is severely wanting...
Ripper: Surrender or Die

Scary Harry Reid is ususally wrong every time he opens his mouth, but on the surge being lost before it began is too Kerryesque even for Reid. Is that possible?

I wonder how far lower he can sink.

Michael Yon is a great resource. The military ought to realize that.

Reid Winning Republican Hearts On Illegal Amnesty Bill?

George Voinovich? I'm afraid that he'll vote with Sherrod and Harry.

I mean he was voted in by Republicans. Wasn't he?

Redeploy to The Hague

Note to minion:
How are you today? I hope well. I am still finishing up a project and you know how things go with that. They think if they pay me that they should get something in return, like me working and producing something. After all, I am not Frankie Coleman.

To the point. Work, blog, work, blog, which will it be. Work wins. I like eating, so right now I have to be happy just reading other blogs. That's cool because I am being linked to some good ones.

The troops should support congress by sending them home

They may not know anything about war or the military (or much else for that
matter), but give congress credit. They are second to none when it comes to
spouting nonsensical gibberish. For those on the anti-war left, their gibberish
might be an exception to this rule, only because venomous malicious gibberish is
more pernicious than uninformed insincere pandering gibberish. The latest bout
of this idiocy comes in the form of those who want to support the troops by
bringing them home.

Scared to death of repeating the Vietnam mistake of being seen as anti-military, which they are, they have decided to support the troops without actually listening to what the troops say is support.

Imagine if parents today said “Our children are away at college. I worry for their safety. Let’s have them drop out of school so they can be safe at home.”

"uninformed insincere pandering gibberish". That pretty much wraps it up.

Read the rest at The Tigrrrr Express.

Thanks minion. Without you I'd be lonlier than Dennis Paul.

Haditha Marines Support Site

Bob of Bob's Blog linked to a post I did on the Haditha Marines and in his comments section listed a very important fact that I did not know. A support site for the wrongly accused Marines which includes a way to help them financially.

http://www.marinedefensefund.com/

Maybe someone will forward this site to Mugger Murtha. I am sure he will want to help all he can.

Typical Ron Paul Supporter

If you don't vote Ron Paul then f**k you. End.

P.S. Don't try to debate me on this. Don't leave comments supporting
someone else. I'll delete them. It's my blog, I'll do what I want. If you
want to support someone else make your own blog.

Randy lists himself as an artist and also as an (insert vulgarities). On the first, I doubt it, but on the others, I'll just have to take his word.

Many of the sites supporting Ron Paul sound just like kOs kiddies, DUers and the Huffington Post. Not a good way to generate support.

The other posts I have done on Paul have generated a lot of hatemail. Geez, don't they have little black helicopters and grassy knolls to chase.

UPDATE: A Ron Paul supporter posted a comment;

You make little childish comments like black helicopters etc etc, and
then wonder why you get hatemail?

If you want to google Paul and grassy knoll, go ahead. I will repeat myself and say that Ron Paul has had some good ideas, but his obsession with conspiracies, among other ideas, render him a political eunuch.

I have been around Ron Paul and he has a sense of humor. Maybe he can rent some to his supporters, but have gold for the rental.

VIA Never Yet Melted

Toy Soldiers Disarmed in California

Cole McNamara and Austin Nakata, 11-year-old buddies who share an interest in all things military, said they put the toys on their hats to support American troops in Iraq.

“I was kind of mad because they just went over and clipped them off and didn’t say anything about it,” Austin said.

I used to work for a cigarette manufacturer in their government relations department. My then 5 year old daughter told her class what I did on the school's "career day" that was "to better acquaint students with each other". The teacher, a virulent anti tobacco activist, informed the class and my daughter that I was a mass murderer. My daughter ran home in tears. Soon after the teacher left the superintendent's office in tears. And fired.

Susan Liberati, an assistant superintendent, said she believes “the
principal has interpreted district policy accurately, and we support her in
that.”

I don't care if these people are stupid or patsys. I'd fire this whole lot. Period.
Susan Liberati, an assistant superintendent, said she believes “the principal has interpreted district policy accurately, and we support her in that.”

Clipping the ends of toy guns on toy soldiers. How incredibly juvenile. What an insult to their aspirations.
