Hurricane Gustav could hit Louisiana by Monday

Yep--another hurricane--Gustav this time around (who names these things anyway?) is headed straight toward Louisiana again. Finally the third time is a charm - after Katrina and Rita, everyone who can is bailing out of New Orleans. Even mayor Ray Nagin told everyone (early!) to GET OUT. For a change. This comes nearly 3 years to the day that Katrina hit.

I often wonder when things like this happen, is there a reason that New Orleans is getting beat up again? I know it's a very sinful city, full of crime and voodoo, but it does make me wonder if there's something to the fact the city has now been hit with hurricanes THREE TIMES in 3 years.

Big Brother is watching...your driving

This is a bit of an old issue, but still a good one, and one that continues to pop up, so I thought I'd give it a bump.

While riding with a friend in her lovely new car this weekend, she used Onstar to help guide us to our destination.

It was both fascinating and very creepy.

Her car obviously has one of those infamous GPS "black boxes" that are ubiquitous in airliners for collecting every bit of data, to determine the cause of an event if some tragedy befalls that plane. But do we really need them in our cars?

This is just another way of technology slowing encroaching on our privacy. It's being ever chipped away, bit by bit, in return for so called "safety and security." GPS is now everywhere, and because of it's convenience and usability, more and more companies, products and people are diving right into it without really looking at the big picture. Right now the NTTA (North Texas Tollway Authority) already has the ability to track your every move--if you use the tollway system. Let's look at the creepy things they already track, shall we? This is the NTTA record for my own tolltag:



For something (someONE?) to know my very whereabouts at all times, even under the guise of being "helpful" to drivers...it's all very subversive and surreal. I assume that soon enough, car insurance companies and medical insurance companies will be "borrowing" this technology to determine if someone should be barred from getting insurance coverage (or medical treatment) because their driving records show they "don't deserve them."

Add the possibility (more like the reality) of putting sensors in the roads themselves, and you have the makings of a police state - and who then are those who make this determination?

If I am an upstanding and law abiding citizen, why do I need to be watched every moment of every day? To what end?

Oh yeah. See the very reason for this blog. It's definitely happening folks.

When Libs have kids

So THIS ADVERT seems to be all over the bloggosphere lately. It's by an "artist" in Manhattan who was looking for a brave soul to be a nanny to her 4 kids. Whew. Just reading parts of that advert are chilling.

Now, I don't have children, so I really have no point of reference, but I was brought up in a rather strict household where discipline put the fear and respect of God, my parents, and others (esp. other adults) into my soul, traits that have been passed down to my nieces and nephews. So I'm thinking if you're going to start your ad with "my kids are a pain in the ***", maybe they're that way partly because of Mommy dearest.

Sounds like it might be a case of lack of discipline, too much focus on being an "artist" (sorry but I've seen her work, so I use that term loosely), and you know what? Perhaps if you DID watch their diets a bit more, ADHD would not be a problem, honey.

Also, there are ways to NOT HAVE CHILDREN if things are so out of hand in your life that you think a nanny will help to solve things. I'm just sayin.

Of course, since the original ad was posted on Craigslist, someone came back with a great rebuttal!

Yet more MSM Liberal love for Obama

Spewing more liberal love for Obama, the MSM is now grasping at straws regarding digging up ANY kind of dirt on Sarah Palin, including stooping to the lowest form of "journalism:"

CNN’s David Gergen: Gore’s Speech Worth Reading, Compares Obama to Lincoln
Lincoln. Sure. You can't even tell them apart!

Matthews Orders Sharpton to 'Beat' Unpatriotic 'Politics of Karl Rove'
Would that give you a 'thrill up your leg', Chris?

In 'Many Newsrooms' Palin Greeted by 'Laughter'
Be careful. She may yet get the last laugh.

TV Journalists Relieved Obama 'Masterpiece' Took on McCain
Masterpiece? Oh, it's the Lincoln comparison thing again, right?

Palin Might Neglect Her Disabled Infant?
Truly hitting below the belt on this one.

Stooping to Lowest Level: Democratic Claim of Palin's 'Faked Pregnancy' Gaining Steam
FAKED her pregnancy? Are you on CRACK?!? "Pile this on top of the low blow from TV's Alan Colmes who claims that Palin didn't practice proper prenatal care before she had the baby with Down's Syndrome, blaming the Mother for her disabled child." Alan, for pete's sake...do you know how fit this woman is??? The ONLY reason she had a Down syndrome child MIGHT have been because of her age, something she COULD NOT CHANGE. Get a clue, man.

And let's not forget our friend Michael Moore, who said that the day that hurricane Gustav makes landfall (on the first day of the GOP convention) shows proof that there is a God. Hey Michael, you're morbidly obese, so when you keel over some day and meet God, you'll have your proof, but it'll be a bit too late for you. So why don't you do the right thing and use some of that money from all your propaganda films to actually HELP those in the hurricane area? And oh yes--the GOP convention is in MINNEAPOLIS, not New Orleans.

And I NEVER thought I'd agree with Bill Maher on anything, but I certainly do with this quote. This sums things up in a nutshell:

"I think there is a problem, though, with the media gushing over him too much. I don't think he thinks that he's all that, but the media does. I mean, the coverage after, that I was watching, from MSNBC, I mean these guys were ready to have sex with him...it's embarrassing."

Embarrassing is right. And the MSM wonders why people like me continue to seek out other ways of getting our news...they cannot be trusted to be objective with all things Obama.

Well, yes, it probably would

Iran has made threats before, and will continue to do so (because the country is run by an IDIOT) but this news may be correct in the end.

As a Christian, I don't believe anyone should be killed for the sake of killing. Everyone, no matter how cruel, heartless and lost is loved by God immeasurably, and he wants everyone to come to Him.

However, I am a realist, not a pacifist. I believe we need the death penalty, and I believe in the Just War. I also know there are some crazy wackjobs out there who just happen to run entire countries; those who are power mad and are war mongers. And no, I am NOT talking about George W. Bush. I'm talking about Iran. And North Korea*. And Russia. And Cuba.

If it weren't for the innocent people who live there, I'd say, will someone please just blow the country off the map. Or at least take out their insane leader, Imademonjob.

His threats and "promises" to wipe out Israel and the U.S. remind me of the old cartoon of the little yappy dog, barking and bouncing excitedly over and around the large bulldog, until finally the bulldog has had enough, and backhands the smaller dog saying: "Ahhh...SHADDAP!"

Hank Hill also had it right. :)

*ever notice how Kim Jong Il tries to make up for his lack of height by boofing up his hair? What's up with that?

Dubya montage

OK, so he wasn't the best president ever (though the raw hatred of him by the left is really incomprehensible and completely uncalled for). He wasn't a great speaker like Clinton or Obama. He made some mistakes (NOT THE WAR!), and some of his policies left much to be desired.

But from the people who knew him personally, who have met him, and spent time with him, George W. Bush sounds like a really great guy, very personable, very down to earth, and frankly, I would love to meet him some day.

Here is a great photo montage from the Dallas Morning News of Bush during his time in politics, with his family, and on other occasions captured on film.

'Excercise' my eye

This is just more of the 'pornification' of America.

There are many other ways one can get excercise that doesn't involve sex!

I don't mean to gush but I love these pictures of Sarah Palin! (click pictures for larger version)






Let the smears begin

Naturally the liberal left is already taking potshots at Sarah Palin. I can't believe I'm actually citing the Huffin-n-PuffinPost. O_o

As well check out this completely FALSE smear website by GatewayPundit - talk about ballsy! From the article:

"Charles Johnson busted the Obama Camp for setting up anti-Palin websites:
Interesting. There’s nothing else on the page. This sure looks like the work of the dastardly right-wing anti-gay attack machine, doesn’t it?
But look who’s really behind this.
In the Linux console, if you enter the following commands, you can learn the secrets of a political dirty trick. First, look up the host of ‘sarahpalingayrights.com’ to get the site’s IP address.
host sarahpalingayrights.com
sarahpalingayrights.com has address 74.208.74.232
Then use the same command to look up the domain name pointer of that IP address.
host 74.208.74.232
232.74.208.74.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer obamadefense.com
Well, well. "Obamadefense.com," eh?
And what happens if you enter obamadefense.com on your browser’s address line?
Why, you’re redirected to none other than FightTheSmears.com, the official Barack Obama site that’s supposed to be defending him against smears.
Looks like they may have a second purpose: to generate a few smears of their own.
It all leads back to The One. Amazing."




I agree. Amazing and unbelievable. Oh wait, this is the left we're talking about, so OF COURSE it's totally believable!

Doggone...somehow this seems appropriate

People have truly lost their minds. But somehow this seems appropriate. THIS is what people voted for as the favored Obama pet! What the...?

"Americans have elected a poodle to the White House, the American Kennel Club (AKC) said Thursday. After reports that Democratic Party candidate Barack Obama and his wife Michelle promised their young daughters that they could have a dog after the election, the AKC polled the US public to find out what kind of canine would be most suitable for the possible first family."

Would you trust this man?


Personally: YIKES.

So what kind of dog would McCain or Palin have for the Whitehouse? How about:

A golden retriever.

An Alaskan Husky!

An Alaskan Malamute! (tho they shed a LOT from what I hear)

Or best of all...just an adorable mutt: :-D


First honeybees...now fireflies?

More on Sarah Palin as VP choice

Well, talk about pulling the rug out from under the Dems...I guess "maverick" McCain wanted to say: "hey, I can make just as historical of a choice as you," especially since choices like Mitt Romney and Tim Pawlenty were out of the running. It's good to know that McCain can still think outside the box when it comes to the "good old boy" network of politics. That says a lot about him.

SOOO much to say about his choice of Sarah Palin as his running mate! She seems at first like the antithesis of McCain, but the fact that she's a woman AND conservative is sure to rattle a few nerves (esp. with the feminists) I'm thinking it will be like another case of Charles and Diana. He may be the "chosen one," but he'll no doubt be eclipsed by her, because she's better looking, seems more likeable, more approachable, all the stuff he is not. And...is she actually taller than him? :) (might be that hair) Plus her eldest son is serving in the military, she's got a hottie for a hubbie, and just how stinkin cute is her family? (that little Piper is adorable!)

As well here as other photos of Sarah Palin and her family.

So here's the good (and funny) stuff:
  • She has a strong anti-abortion record (she is quoted saying in 2002 that she is as "pro-life as any candidate can be.") w00t!
  • She actually sold the private plane of her predecessor...on eBay no less! Go girl!
  • She has a long history of run-ins with the Alaska GOP hierarchy, giving her genuine maverick status and reformer credentials that could complement McCain's image.
  • She has experience as both a mayor AND a governor, along with an unheard of 90% state approval rating, UNLIKE Barak Obama, who has only been a senator for what, 200 days or something?
  • After she was made head of the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission, she exposed ethical violations by the state GOP chairman, a fellow commissioner, who then resigned.
  • Her husband is a blue-collar North Slope oil worker who competes in the Iron Dog.
  • Four months into her most recent pregnancy, Palin learned the child would have Down syndrome, but she never had any doubts about whether she would have the baby.
  • She is a proponent of petroleum development as well as other types of energies
  • She favors drilling in ANWR (Arctic National Wildlife Refuge)
  • Her kids have fun funky names: Track, 19 (as in "...and Field"); Bristol 17; Willow 14; Piper, 7, and baby Trig (as in "...onometry").
  • Track enlisted in the Army in 2007 on the sixth anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks
  • She is a member of Feminists for Life
  • She led the Fellowship of Christian Athletes chapter at her high school
  • She is a lifelong member of the NRA!
  • She has a fishing license
  • She's healthy - jogs and exercises a lot
  • She eloped with her high school sweetheart, Todd Palin, in 1988 to save money on an expensive wedding! (she's a gal after my Dad's heart, that's for sure)
  • Personally, just the fact that she has a husband, FIVE children, and runs a huge state is almost enough management and multi-tasking experience to make me think that being VP would be a piece of cake for her. :)

And the odd stuff:

  • She was (or is) being investigated about the firing of the guy who did not fire her former brother in law (who was married to her sister), while her sister and brother in law were embroiled in a messy divorce. Hmm.
  • At 44, Palin is a generation younger than two of McCain's seven children
  • She is considerably younger than Sen. Joseph Biden
  • She is also three years younger than Obama.
  • She's typically seen walking the Capitol halls in black or red power suits while reading text messages on Blackberry screens in each hand.
  • She made a recent appearance in fashion magazine Vogue
  • *UPDATE* - her eldest daughter Bristol is 5 months pregnant. :(
I like her already. I just hope that life inside the Washington beltway doesn't change her or sulley her in any way...though I'm not holding my breath on that. Washington is a virtual cesspool, or should I say tarpit, and it seems that everyone who sticks their toes into it gets sucked down into the morass.

McCAIN / PALIN IN 2008!!!




Does religion play too much into politics?

Personally, I don't believe it plays into it enough. I also think that politics in general is the work of Satan; I have never known of anyone in politics who has not been sullied in some way by their life in politics. And in spite of what Barack Obama says about "fixing broken politics" in Washington, at this point, there's no such thing as "fixing" it...the entire political structure is broken beyond repair, and NO MATTER WHO is in office, it cannot, and will not, be fixed, without the cleansing power of Christ, which means everyone in politics would have to be followers of Christ. And we all know that will never happen when there is freedom of choice and sinfulness involved.

However some people have created a "manifesto" about religion and politics:

http://www.anevangelicalmanifesto.com/

Of course, there is always a rebuttal:

http://www.cwfa.org/articles/15163/BLI/dotcommentary/index.htm

I think I'm actually excited now about the elections!

The more I read about VP pick Sarah Palin (governor of Alaska) the more excited I'm getting.

Wouldn't it be great if the MSM could not dig up any dirt on this woman?

Of course that would never happen, because they would then simply make up stuff.

But this definitely puts a whole new spin on the 2008 elections, WOW!

McCain's VP choice is historic and hardly known

WOW. Talk about a jaw-dropper indeed! McCain, known for being a maverick has made quite a maverick decision in his choice of a Vice Presidential running mate!

Some very interesting points from the article:

Palin, who led the Fellowship of Christian Athletes chapter at her high school, could help McCain's standing with social conservatives who have been skeptical of him.

"It's an absolutely brilliant choice," said Mathew Staver, dean of Liberty University School of Law and founder of the legal group Liberty Counsel, who has sought to coalesce evangelicals around McCain. "This will absolutely energize McCain's campaign and energize conservatives."

Palin is "a woman of faith who has a strong position on life, a consistent opinion on judges," Staver said. "She's the complete package."

But Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York said McCain was taking a "roll of the dice" and declared that Palin's "lack of experience makes the thought of her assuming the presidency troubling."

Uh...Senator Schumer? Don't EVEN go there. You have nothing to say to that when your own candidate has an extremely limited background of his own. The lack of experience of one Barack Obama is limited to less than 200 days as a senator. So don't play that card.

If I can be so chauvenistic, she is nice looking, always a plus. :)

Blinding array of stars gather at DNC

This is MUCH of what's wrong with the Democratic party and Obama in particular.

http://apnews.myway.com//article/20080828/D92RJNBO0.html

We saw this with Bill Clinton too. The Dems are too close to Hollyweird, which is overly biased to the left, and overtly fawned over by the MSM, so in effect, there's little to no objectivity at all when it comes to the Democratic party.

HOWEVER, the GOP will have its own array of stars, albeit not quite as 'shiny' as those for the DNC.

Bankruptcies Soar for Senior Citizens

Yet another chip in the financial wall.

Add this to the growing number of banks that are on shifting sand, the downturn in the economy, the overwhelming national debt, and the millions of people living on credit, and soon enough it will all come tumbling down and bury us!

'Obsession' the movie

This is a movie that Obama, Biden, McCain and his running mate should ALL watch and heed the information in it.

True, not all Muslims are terrorists, but so far all terrorists have been Muslim.

Coincidence?

Would you like to play a game?

Gosh, has it really been 25 years since "War Games" came out?

I remember as I watched this movie I really got that nervous butterflies-in-the-stomach feeling watching WOPR (aka "Joshua") destroy the world, albeit virtually.

Seeing the movie with 2008 eyes (after forcing oneself to look beyond the fashions of the early 80s as well as Ally Sheedy's overacting), the movie holds up well. It still hits home today, what with the now-ubiquitous internet and the thousands of global guerilla-like hackers continuously bent on getting into any and every security system and wreaking havoc therein.

Personally, I have never understood that way of thinking, but then, my mama brought me up right. :)

I give the movie two thumbs up. Check it out.

The 'real' MLK?

While I agree that Dr. King was a great man, and did great and wonderful things, it seems the Left has ceremoniously used the legacy of Dr. King to their own advantage (especially where Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton *shudder*)

But was Dr. King really as 'great' as the the Left makes him out to be? There are many who think not:

'Hierarchy of hotness' rules at Abercrombie & Fitch

As if we needed yet another reason not to shop at the uber-shallow and sexually charged Abercrombie & Fitch.

Remember this problem?

Apparently American Apparel is in the same vein as A&F:

As stated so well in "letsgojulia's" blog:

...maybe AK (Abercrombie Kids) is just trying to keep up with the lovely jail bait ads American Apparel is known for. Which, I'd just like to go ahead and say thank you to these companies--all of them--for glamorizing promiscuity with teens (they don't look old enough to be women--they barely look 18). Yay! That's not creepy at all! I mean, it's working! Look at the stats from the Texas Dept of State Health Services:

Every 10 minutes, a teen in Texas gets pregnant. Every 10 hours, a 14-year-old teen gets pregnant. Every 3 hours, a 15-year-old teen gets pregnant. Every 1.5 hours, a 16-year-old teen gets pregnant. Every 52 minutes, a 17-year-old-teen gets pregnant. Every 35 minutes, an 18-year-old teen gets pregnant. Every 28 minutes, a 19-year-old teen gets pregnant.

Convention should bring end to Obama-mania

I dunno. We can only hope and pray it is so. I have a feeling this may only fan the Obama fire in the eyes of the Dimmocrats.

IMO, I felt that the Saddleback church interviews really could have been more hard-hitting, and thought Rick Warren's approach was just a little too soft. However this below was very telling as far as where the candidates stand on abortion:

John McCain was, by comparison, twice as comfortable, twice as responsive and as such, at least twice as presidential...This placed Mr. Obama in a bind: How exactly do you sugarcoat a radical abortion rights stance in front of a staunch pro-life crowd? His chosen answer was to hem and haw for an uncomfortable spell, concluding eventually that the decision on when life begins is "above my pay grade."
-----
He [McCain] actually seems to be listening to the party base he once regularly alienated; witness the purging of the thoroughly unsatisfactory Tom Ridge from his running mate list last week. Witness his five-word answer to Rick Warren – "from the moment of conception" – that made the Obama answer on when life begins look like the tap-dancing of a very ordinary politician.

"Evangelist"?

No, this is merely a very sick man who used religion to get what he wanted for himself.

It's people like this who give Christianity a bad name, and it's people like this (and articles like this) that lead those who are not saved away from Christ! I mean, if I were unsaved and saw this article, I'd probably think, "there goes another wacked out religious nut."

Were he the leader of another type of group, I think it would be called a cult.

God save us from ourselves!

HORRIBLE decision

This move by Tyson Chicken is a very bad one, in my opinion.

DO THEY DO THIS FOR EVERY OTHER RELIGIOUS AFFILIATION AT TYSON'S???

I think not.

Note to self: DO NOT BUY TYSON CHICKEN.

Like it says, don't be fooled

New York's Society of Ethical Culture.

This is not a church, this is merely a group of people who get together to talk about things that make themselves feel good, with its members being agnostic, atheist, and humanist. Talk about a building full of SELF.

Seeking out real truth with all of your heart will never return void when it comes to God. However, merely belonging to a group that does nothing to seek or promote Truth, yet upholds humanistic (e.g, sinful and self-centered) values will do nothing to bring one to true salvation.

Most disturbing was the shot of the children whose parents are obviously members of this group.

"Modern Day Ninjas"

While the thought processes of these 2 "modern day ninjas" is commendable (to rid their community of drug dealers), these are young adult men who are stuck in "emotional immaturity" of living out their lives through comic books and anime, and are not in touch with reality.

"Ninjas" are for make-believe and dress up, and are not appropriate for real life.

Obama chooses Biden as running mate

Obama has chosen Joseph Biden (D - Delaware) as his 2008 running mate for VP.

However...Mr. Biden seems to have his own ideas about Obama himself:

Also, from other articles I've read about Biden, he may become a liability for the Obama campaign, as he's been known for his social gaffes and lack of tact. Check out the RNC's "Biden Gaffe Clock" based on Biden's seeming lack of tact in the public arena: here and here

Russia-Cuba Ties Seen as Warning to U.S.

While true communism is on the decline (look at the "new" China, and the Castro brothers in Cuba are knocking on death's door, while ravenous capitalists hover at the gates), Russia and Cuba have been communist allies for decades. With Russia's recent invasion of Georgia, I have a feeling that the "sleeping bear" may be awakening.

What is coming out of our schools today?

THIS.

Even if this so called "art project" is fiction, it still shows the depth of depravity of many of the students coming out of our ivy-league colleges such as Yale (founded as a CHRISTIAN college, btw).

From the article:

Ms. Shvarts has long displayed a keen interest in issues relating to human reproduction. Her account of her first menstruation, "The Ming Period," appears on a Web site devoted to such stories, My1stPeriod.com. In 2006, a Yale journal published a photograph of one of her creations, "Disarticulation." The sculpture, said to be made from plaster, Vaseline, towels, rubber bands, and latex gloves, resembles male and female reproductive organs.

and

Ms. Shvarts also railed against those who take a narrow view of what constitutes art. "People have to stop being so dismissive about what art is. It has to stop hanging on the wall. It has to be something lived, breathed every day," she said.

Sounds like Ms. Schvarts is some kind of messed up. There are just certain things that will never, and should never, be considered art, no matter if art is "subjective." Interestingly, the "progressive art" world then responded with this:

After reading the story about artist Aliza Shvarts, i was so inspired, i made a piece named after her.



Aliza is a Yale art student that has created quite a controversy in the art world! i LOVE IT! (Does NOT come with chain)

p.s I was inspired by her and her courage to express herself. I was inspired by her dedication to her form of art. I AM NOT supporting abortion, nor do i support her self body mutilation. however i DO support having a voice and being HEARD!

i made this piece in response to Aliza Shvarts’s art piece/installation, to let her know, her voice has been heard!

Home heating crisis looms

Just when I thought I might be able to catch a breather once the hot Dallas summer is over, it looks like it won't be happening.

I live in a one-bedroom apartment with "den" (aka computer room), and am on the top floor of a 3-floor building. Between the relentless Texas sun, and rising heat from the rest of the building, I was in for a shock when I opened my latest electric bill.

It was over $300!!!

Now typically, off season (e.g., not summer), my electric bill runs about $75 - $100. That's doable. But this $300 a month stuff for my little abode about borders on insanity.

My dream is to build a zero-energy, high-efficiency house, where electric bills won't be a problem, but with expenditures like this, on top of $4.00/gal gas prices, and the soaring prices of food, HOW am I ever going to reach that goal in the first place?

Gas prices decline for 30th straight day

Until prices get down to around a dollar-something, $3.50 a gallon is actually not much better than $4.00 a gallon! In this way, it's all relative...they make us think we're getting some kind of bargain at $3.50 a gallon.

NOT.

Russia (aka Gog) is throwing its weight around lately.

The Bear may be awakening.

Construction Begins on San Diego Border Fence

And IT'S ABOUT TIME.

Now if they can only continue the fence line for another 700-odd miles east!

Marriage movement

It's sad and frustrating when it comes to this: having to fight for something as basic and God-given as marriage between one man and one woman!

Blaming personal responsibility on talk radio

The left is pulling out all the stops, and is now blaming the actions of one man on conservative talk radio.

While personally, I agree--TO A POINT--with Mr. Adkisson's views, that does not give anyone--not him, not me, not anyone--the right to just go off and shoot a bunch of innocent people. You are allowed to have your opinion as long as you are not harming anyone else in the process.

But this article is truly 'fighting words'. I hope Brent Bozell succeeds in getting an apology, but I'm not holding my breath. The MSM feels they are untouchable and can say anything they want no matter who they hurt; even if what they say is completely false.

Sick and inhuman

Dear Lord, death is too good for this guy.

He's beyond sick.

N.Y. Plans to Monitor Every Car

Another way in which everything will start to become watched, monitored, and tracked...all in the name of "security and safety."

KNOW YOUR ENEMY

If you are still one of those Americans who believe 9/11 was a mindless attack on a decadent United States by Islamic fanatics without a comprehensive long range plan, a new film will open your eyes.

How do I 'dis' thee? Let me count the ways

Now here's a telling picture:



Hmm. Bill's lost weight.

Here are a few videos from Mr. & Mrs. Obamessiah.

And hey, all you Liberal clean-air-CO2-cracker-downers, Obama is a smoker! 0_o



Not that there's anything wrong with that, right? :)

When the breakdown of the family happens, this happens

Another in the long line of absurdities caused by surrogacy, same-sex "parents", and other messes in the breakdown of the family unit.

Add to that, weak-willed judges who try to MAKE the law, instead of UPHOLD the law.

ONE MAN, ONE WOMAN, TO GET MARRIED, AND STAY MARRIED. Without that stabilizing cornerstone of society, everything breaks down.

GASP! ARGH! How can this be? Not the beloved "Motherland!"

Obamessiah, let me touch your robe!

*swoon!*

Finally someone shows us what many think of the whole Obama frenzy!

You can also read the script to catch all of the nuances in the speech.

This is only a taste of what life with the anti-christ will be like, folks. He'll be charming, handsome, charismatic...and will dupe EVERYONE in believing that he's someone he is not.

Oooh, I think not.

Nice. Poor Elizabeth, who is battling cancer. I bet she's had it up to "here."

How many U.S. related pix in Yahoo's Olympic photo coverage?

In one particular Yahoo news photo album covering the 2008 Beijing Olympics opening ceremonies, out of 186 photos, precisely FOUR were U.S. related, and only two of those were team pictures taken inside the 'Birds nest' stadium!!! (and yes, I did scroll through the entire 186 pictures)

Picture 64 - first U.S. related picture of a female celebrant, with her face painted half with half U.S. flag, half China flag
Picture 81 – 4 U.S. revelers in the streets
Pictures 85 / 86 – the only 2 pictures of the U.S. team from inside the stadium

I realize this is the Olympics, and it's supposed to be about 'global unity' and all that, but Yahoo and Getty Images are AMERICAN companies, residing in the U.S., and as such, should probably have given the U.S. a little more coverage at the Olympics. But that, of course, would imply that they are proud of their own country. But silly me!

President Bush was there, and we all know how much the rest of the world loves him, though I haven't yet read of any booing by other Olympic attendees.

What's wrong with this picture?



OK. Yao Ming is Chinese, I get it.

BUT HE PLAYS FOR AN AMERICAN BASKETBALL TEAM AND LIVES IN THE U.S.

Things that definitely make you go hmmm.

$250 million Scientology racketeering lawsuit

We can only hope that something good comes from this lawsuit, but I'm not holding my breath.

Scientology is NOT a religion, it's a cult-based business featuring strong-arm tactics, brutality, harrassment and even the deaths of some of its members.

But of course they LOVE their celebrity mouthpieces, such as wack job Tom Cruise!

Leftie Radio?



Interesting how the results turned out on this one. I agree wholeheartedly with the top 82%. The left tends to be too acerbic, too hateful, and too short sighted to make their version of talk radio actually work (as seen by the demise of several left leaning talk shows and networks recently).

It may look good on paper, but on the airways, it just doesn't fly, "Fairness" Doctrine or not.
