THE SYSTEM WORKED II

In case you missed it, after a young male African-born Muslim (now where have we heard that before?) tried to blow up an airliner full of Innocent people on Christmas, and only a malfunction in his bomb and a Dutch passenger taking him down saved everyone from another terrorist catastrophe, Janet "Reno" Napolitano came on a Sunday morning TV talking heads show and claimed, "The system worked!" This has already been eloquently covered here.

Now, it turns out that while Abdul was training for terrorism attacks openly in Yemen with his terrorist pals, two of those terrorist pals, who helped planned the attack, had been released from Gitmo. Seems the two, detainees #333 and #372, had been released to Saudi Arabia (another name we've heard before in relation to crashing passenger jets) where they underwent strenuous de-programming in the form of, I couldn't make this up, a rigorous "art therapy rehabilitation program". Being pronounced "new men", they were then set free.

"We were going to have them go through a 'home economics cooking and baking rehabilitation' program too," said a Saudi spokesman. "But they kept trying to cook C-4 in the muffin tins."

Even with these disasters going on, Obama on his white horse leading the charge, the thing that sticks in my craw the most is that all the lefty politicos and media hacks are still so worried about the foreign-captured non-citizen detainees' RIGHTS. They sure don't give a rat's ass about all the increasing abuses perpetrated by our own government against its own citizens in egregious violation of just about every other sentence of the United States Constitution, but by golly foreign terrorists have RIGHTS! How come no body's worried about our rights?

Are we trapped in some kind of alternate universe Bizzaro World? The folks in charge sure don't seem to be inhabiting the same plant I'm on.

Gun Nut Roundup - December '09

GOA Makes Small Win On Obamacare

Gun Owners of America, the "no compromise" gun lobby was able to eke out a small win for gun owners in the onerous Obamacare bill passed recently in the Senate. The provisions that GOA got inserted in the bill state that no wellness program under the bill may require disclosure or collect information about gun ownership. Another provision would prohibit private insurers covered under the bill from denying coverage, charging higher premiums or denying discounts because the customer owns guns. The bill still sucks, but way to go GOA!

NRA Tweaks Its Iowa Concealed Carry Bill

The NRA has revised its bill to change Iowa from a "may issue" to "shall issue" state. The original bill was criticised as too weak by Jeff Knox and the local group Iowa Gun Owners, among others. The groups Iowa Carry (affiliated with Second Amendment Foundation), the Iowa Sportsmen's Federation (an NRA affiliate), and Iowa State Rifle & Pistol Association (an NRA affiliate) are supporting the NRA's new bill. Let's hope the NRA gets it right.

More Guns, Less Crime In '09

According to early reports from the FBI, during the first half of 2009, murders fell by 10% while gun sales surged by 30% during the same period. Yet again the anti-Second Amendment crowd looks stupid and pathetic pushing their gun bans that have never worked to reduce crime, but reduce only freedom. Absolutely no one who regularly reads this blog will be surprised by these statistics.

MONTANANS!! KICK MAX BAUCUS OUT!!!

Here it is, folks. The petition to hold a re-call election to boot Max out for all his unconstitutional party-line shenanigans. Yes, I know, we would all rather gather 'round and kick him in the groin rather than just kick him out, but let's take what we can get.

STATES IN DECLINE...A MYSTERY

Having suffered a severe blow to the head, I actually watched a little bit of the Mainstream Media recently, and I actually picked up a few things before I got too sick to my stomach to continue. For instance, CNN Money had a story about which states are losing the most people (and businesses) and losing them fast.

ANNOUNCER: The Top 5 states appear to be California, New York, Michigan, Illinois, and Ohio. Our esteemed CNN financial experts joined with the Obama Administration’s Trained Money Chimp Timothy Geithner and Fed Chairman Ben “Print More” Bernanke to travel to these troubled locales in an attempt to unravel the mysterious circumstances behind their decline.

First, to sunny Los Angeles, Kalifornia.

Q: What do you think are the socio-economic factors behind California’s recent population decline?

A: “Baboso! The f’k outta here, Hijo de puta ! F’in’ gringo! This is Azaltan! Viete a la mierda!”




Moving on to New York City.
Q: What do you think are the socio-economic factors behind New York’s recent population decline?
A: Whadda? Youse talkin’ to me? I’m da only one here. Decline? Gedd outta here. Look at dis beoootiful city. New Yawk’s still da center of da universe…don’t youse watch sit coms? Hunh? Mebbe we tax da rich more? Whadda youse say?


Detriot, MI
Q What do you think are the socio-economic factors behind Michigan’s recent population decline?
A: Lululululu! Allah Akbar! Die infidel!

Chicago, Ill
Q: What do you think are the socio-economic factors behind Illinois' recent population decline?
A: What the hell do I care; nobody runnin' Chicago cares about Illinois! I wanna know what the hell I was thinkin’?!?!? Why didn’t I just get into politics?!?!? It’s so much easier, pays better, and you get to make the laws so you don’t ever hafta do time. With my skills, I coulda been president!


Sarejavo, OH
Q: What do you think are the socio-economic reasons behind Ohio's recent population decline?
A: Can’t be jobs. We have tens of thousands of unfilled jobs for Democrat voter and registrars of fake Democrat voters. The factory jobs may be gone, but we still have all this fine industrial infrastructure intact. We’ve offered employers good deals to build and move here…they don’t have to pay any taxes for the first 30 seconds. Still no luck. Greedy scum. It’s that damned Bush’s fault, anyway. Stinkin' election thief!

ANNOUNCER: So, it remains a mystery why these proud, beautiful states continue to decline. Perhaps we'll never know.
ME CALLING IN: Could be because they're the most liberal states with the highest taxes and the most spending on social programs. Between sky-high taxes, unrealistic extremist environmental regulations, and sheer political correctness, it does not pay for an employer or a producer to come anywhere near those places. Ships fleeing the sinking rat, if you will.
ANNOUNCER: Wait! Breaking news! It appears that the Stimulus Bill has created a new job at the Wichita Zoo. We now take you live to Bimbette Reporter Suzy Snotty in Kansas.

SIZE MATTERS...BUT IN WHAT WAY???

Kudos to Jim over at the Real World Libertarian. Here's a little food for thought on the healthcare "reform" bill and what it could contain. I've read Rand and Tolstoy and I'll be danged if I can tell you what all is actually in those books.
