Jimmy Carter, Still Crazy After All These Years

Jimmy Carter calls Cheney a "disaster"
Former President Jimmy Carter on Wednesday denounced Vice President
Dick Cheney as a "disaster" for the country and a "militant" who has had an
excessive influence in setting foreign policy.

This is a joke, right? Really? No way.

Hey Jimmah, how is that planning change for Operation Eagle Claw coming along?

Carter has cornered the market on "disaster". And not just at home.

Hillary Hallows Halloween

Many warming unexpectedly to Clinton

My kids always warmed to goblins as Halloween approached much as a 2 at 10 became a 10 at 2. I think that principle may apply here.

Slice And Dice II

I'm back, but tired. Everything was a success, especially your thoughts and prayers.

Going home. More later.

It's Slice And Dice Time

An early light dinner and early to bed. It will be a very early morning and a long couple of days before I'm back in the saddle again.

I'm going with the mechanical valve.

I'll blog when I can.

Be good.

Secessionists And Their Damn Fool Ideas

Secessionists meeting in Tennessee
"We believe that an independent South, or Hawaii, Alaska, or Vermont
would be better able to serve the interest of everybody, regardless of race or
ethnicity," said Michael Hill of Killen, Ala., president of the League of the
South.

I lost a lot of family on both sides the last time this was tried. My great-grandfather grew a long beard to hide his shattered chin and jaw, but he considered himself lucky because the only limb they didn't amputate during the civil war was the head.

I cherish my Southern heritage and have made sure my children have read accurate histories of the lead up to the War of Northern Aggression, the war and its aftermath. I despise the drunks and the fools that spout off about southern this and southern that. Booze, beliefs and buffoons do not mix well.

Weakening America at this time is a liberal's moron's dream.

I could see Vermont, in their smug self righteousness, actually believing they'd be better off, but The League of the South is just making money.

Goracle UnClear On China Big 3

Al Gore stated that:

"We can’t sell our cars in China today because we don’t meet the
Chinese emissions standards."

But, but, the NYT's didn't get the memo:

More Big 3 Cars to China

Published: November 12, 2003
General Motors, Ford Motor and DaimlerChrysler said yesterday that they had reached agreements with China to import more cars and trucks built in the United States. The automakers want to raise their market share in China, which may pass Germany this year as the No3 vehicle market behind the United States and Japan.

Are we even sure Al Gore's name is Al Gore?

I'm not.

"Kill the terrorists, secure the border, and give me back my freedom."

President Thompson
After a recent Thompson speech in Iowa a member of the audience called
out: "Kill the terrorists, secure the border, and give me back my freedom."
Thompson replied "you just summed up my whole speech."

That just summed up my support.

Interesting Fact

The bottled water named 'Evian' spelled backwards is 'naive'.

Fred Thompson Is No Ron Paul

Thompson Raised $8M (Plus) In Third Quarter

Here we go..

Ex-Sen. Fred Thompson raised more than $8M since July, a campaign
adviser said this morning.

Thompson has recieved donations from more than 70,000 individual
contributors since June, when his testing-the-waters account opened. (The
campaign has yet to release the amount of money he raised that
month).

July, August and September and from 70,000 individuals. Impressive.

Busch Brothers Too Stupid To Race

When push comes to shove and quick thinking is paramount, the Busch brothers just cannot beat the Peter Principle.

Think back to all the times either Kyle or Kurt screwed up themselves or worse trashed the hopes of other drivers.

Again, think back to junior high when the goofy looking weirdo always seem to have the "sorry" look on their face when the apparent winner was lying on the ground because they were tripped up and lost the race because of the "sorry" guy that was too uncoordinated to control themself.

Picture the Busch brothers. Both of them. Dweebs.

Note: Kurt, beware the Indy meatball. You might be toast. He might deep 20 you.

Episcopal VS The Truth

Stand For Your Beliefs . . . or not . . .

But just as the left wishes to continually reinterpret the Constitution,
(calling it a living, breathing document - which really means anything goes if
you twist the words enough) they now wish to reinterpret even the words of our
Father in Heaven.

The church in which I grew and grew up in is a hollow shell bereft of the great theology and priests who guided us (many times with a paddle and boxing gloves) through the pitfalls of life. When first asked, by Father Bowling, "What would Christ do?" when I had committed an infraction, I was stunned. Nobody had asked that before. Even my sixth grade mind understood the question. And the import of the question.

Up is not down and red is not blue. Even the Episcopal Church should have the where-with-all to grasp this.

Hate the sin, love the sinner. Pretty simple, eh?

We Should All Be Party Crashers!

Though I am glad that Newt is not going for the presidency it does not mean he hasn't some great insight.

This is a great article and one that is dear to my heart.

Our Unseen Government

I have for years talked about the hidden government of bureaucrats that undermine administrations, usually Republican, and merrily make their own policy because us, the great unwashed, are too stupid to know what is good for us.

I would very much like this hidden government to stop being a reality. Most Americans do not even know that it exists. That fact alone means that it is evil.

More chilling is that this hidden government is dangerous to our Republic.

Most of our founding fathers would have supported hanging them.

Huge kudos to Sniper One for bringing this to our attention!!!!

Iraq, Liberals, The MSM And A Crock Of Crap

Just got back from our week with the in laws, NASCAR, the beach and reforming. Just in time for Buckeye football tonight.

I am very happy to announce that we arrived at the Philadelphia Airport, boarded our US Air flight on time and landed in beautiful Columbus Ohio 9 minutes early. With all of our baggage.

Our son is visiting a lovely lady and her family so we walked into a house of two very anxious yellow Labs. Unloading the car had to wait as our puppy reunion took place. No pun intended, but it does one's heart a lot of good to see that much love.

I was a tad reluctant to dive back into the news, but having done so I found one excellent article and one that masterfully discussed a so predictably kneejerk reaction by the Nation.

First, good news from Afghanistan that the MSM doesn't dare write about for obvious reasons. They're morons.

via Instapundit;

A Quiet Triumph May be Brewing from The American Thinker that connects the war in Iraq, Afghanistan and our governments efforts to do what liberals can't admit is successful or good, but also can't state that we are enlarging the war as they successfully did during Vietnam because too many people remember how many of our soldiers died or were wounded because of their traitorous stupid actions.

The second article is from the always reliable This Ain't Hell about liberal's traitorous stupid punditry concerning the War On Terror.

The Nation; Neocons provoke Iran from John Lilyea speaks directly to the Vietnam War madness by liberals, progressives, socialists and communists who aided and abetted the Vietcong (until they were decimated), the North Vietnamese military and government and the communist Chinese and the USSR at different times. Now they are trying the same old tiresome tactics concerning Iraq.

After all, the young morons that helped snatch victory away in Vietnam are now older morons or the parents of current young morons that are writing this crap.

It is nice to be home. And, the poopies puppies are happy.

BTW, Secret Journey

My wife and my in laws took me on a secret journey to Cape May and a store that specializes in political paraphernalia and Japanese ivory pieces.

I bought a lot.

It was wonderful.

Tonight we are off to a special dinner.

It is all for my health.

BTW II: I cut my smoking by 90%.

My doctor is still pissed.

I missed it when Tom Blogical first questioned my condiments. My apology, but the bourbon and homemade mustard are fine and the homemade horse radish is a gift from God.

I blame the biscuits.

Henceforth, biscuits will only be eaten when served.

Rather, A Lie That Is True- A Liar That Seeks The Truth Through Deceptive Lies That Seeks The Truth Through An Endless Circle Of Lies

Rather chokes up, and hunkers down

Dan Rather has always been a posuer. From his lax knee hoisted on the bumper of a Jeep in Vietnam to his laughable forgeries to try to discredit President Bush just before an election, Dan has always tried to be the kid with the drive to produce the firstest with the mostest.

A Boy Scout Dan is not.

Dan Rather is not rather smart.

Dan Rather has and is drinking his own bath water.

Dan Rather is dumber than Cher.

Dan Rather is a noir gumshoe who got a beat and blew it.

Nick Nolte does Rather better than Dan does Rather,

How sad is that?

Sadder than a stone without a riverbed. Sadder than a lyre without a liar.

Sadder than Clinton without a blue dress. Pick your Cinton. No matter.

Love. Justice. Kindness. Dignity.

Brian Williams: Well what will you do?

el Al Waleece: I will invade Iran and defeat the Iranis on
their own ground.

Brian Williams: Invade? That's impossible.

el Al Waleece: Why? Why is that impossible? You're so concerned
with squabbling for the scraps from Ahmadinejad's table that you've
missed your God-given right to something better.

There is a difference between us.

The difference is here.

Not enough chicken bones to choke on for this fête.
