Well, it's been a busy weekend for me, like it usually is during baseball/softball season, but I had some time to myself this evening, just to relax. I had a few drinks, listened to some tunes, and thought about how the poor VP hardly gets any press, except when he's making a fool out of himself, Hussein, or both. So, I took pen in hand and parodied a song for him. I hope he likes it (and I hope Lou Reed hates it).
Sweet Joe
Standing in the background, blank look on my face
Bammy's at the prompter, Rahm has got his back.
And me, hey, why am I in this place?
Stumpin' the 'lection circuit, Slim,
You know, those were crazy times!
Oh, all the voters, they swallowed all our guff
and those papers, they hid those lies.
Sweet Joe! Whoa! Sweet Joe, whoa-oh-oh! Sweet Joe!
Here's another thing:
Bammy is a muslim, and Rahm he ain't no Jew!
Both of then hide those facts, yeah,
so when they hit the public view
Man, chattin' up the hope and change, oh!
The pandering does play, the bleeding hearts eat it up, Slick!
It's change you can believe in, dig?
All you poor-house kids,
you can hear Bammy say "Welfare State!"
Sweet Joe! Whoa! Sweet Joe, whoa-oh-oh! Sweet Joe!
Some guys, they just like the limelight
and other fellas, here for the ride (just like me, now!)
And what about those right-wing freakos?
Those guys are nothing but a big thorn in our sides!
You know, a promise never means that much
even when we look you in the eyes, bud!
You know those gun nuts are the only ones against us,
and that Life is just a Choice!
And Bammy wants a bigger piece of tax,
so he can turn around and spend it!
Oh, and if Rahmie doesn't like a law,
oh, he'll just go ahead and bend it!
Sweet Joe! Whoa! Sweet Joe, whoa-oh-oh! Sweet Joe!
Government tax and spending,
will be coming for you when they smile.
Government tax and spending,
will be coming for you when they smile.
Blah, blah-blah, blah blah, blah
Blah, blah blah, blah-blah, blah
Blah, blah-blah, blah blah, blah
Blah, blah blah, blah-blah, blah
Sweet Joe
Sweet Joe
Sweet Joe

The Left-Wing War on America Continues...
The Department of Justice has acknowledged that FBI agents have read terrorist suspects their Miranda rights overseas, "to preserve the quality of evidence obtained".
To which I reply: "Are you fucking kidding me?" What's next, paying legal fees for their hand-picked ACLU lawyers?
There is so much wrong with this, I'm just going to jump right in.
1. The Miranda laws need to be changed. If you're not a US citizen or in this country legally, they shouldn't apply equally to you. You can keep your mouth shut and have a lawyer around, but ANYTHING you say AT ANY TIME ought to be admissible evidence.
2. Terrorist dirtbags are NOT criminals, they are enemy combatants, and therefore have no rights other than basic food and shelter. If some of our guys have to knock you around a little bit to obtain information that could save American lives, then tough shit for you. Stop trying to kill Americans and we'll stop kicking your ass. Be thankful we're not sawing your head off. Yet.
3. Exactly what kind of "quality of evidence" are they trying to preserve? If some raghead bastard clams up and remains silent, what good does that do? Preserve the quality of the silence, ensuring the Feds don't have to endure hours of the mush-mouthed goat-bleat that passes for a language with these jerks for no payoff?
4. Did we send our combat forces over there to be soldiers or cops?
General Patraeus has said it's something the Feds do, not the military, and he's fine with it as it is. However, a senior Republican on the House Intelligence Committee who has just returned from Afghanistan and Bagram said that the procedure is really starting to gum up the works. And that ain't good. He's worried, like I am, that it could cause our troops to have to worry about any given situation being a criminal event or a combat event. That only makes for more dead Americans, and that is bullshit.
What is really scary is that according to reports, the FBI is planning to take over some of the CIA's responsibilities in these matters, "under the assumption that most of these suspects would end up in a court of law."
Why the fuck should they ever end up in a court of law? The best that these bastards should ever receive is a military tribunal. And frankly, I think the best that most of them deserve is a bullet in the head.
And, while we're at it, why is the FBI operating overseas in a combat zone? Isn't the FBI supposed to be a domestic agency? Why are they getting into the CIA's racket? To muddy the waters with more of the Hussein administration's bullshit?
Keep the Feds where they belong, and let the military and the Spooks do their jobs.
Can't wait for Ranger Steve's reaction to this...

Continuing the Government Takeover of Our Lives
How many red flags have to go up, and how many shrieks of the danger whistle do we as Americans have to hear before we wake up? The Hussein administration is doing everything they can to crush our freedoms and many of us continue to stand idly by and believe the bullshit the prez spews to try and cover it up.
Bank of America CEO Kenneth Lewis has testified that the federal government threatened to remove board members in good standing if the bank did not follow through with its bid to buy the falling-apart-at-the-seams Merrill Lynch, despite BoA's own financial difficulties. All of this manipulated through "stimulus money".
These are blatant attempts to socialize every aspect of our lives. Trust the state, the state runs everything, the state will take care of everything, the state knows what's best for you, All Hail the State...it just makes me sick. I'm a free-born American, and I intend to keep this country free for my grandchildren's grandchildren, by any means necessary.
Join the Resistance!

Pigs are Pigs
I find this unbelievable. I know cops and ex-cops of all colors; the majority of them are good guys. But more and more, way too many of them are falling into the "fucking pig" category. Want an example? Watch this video over at Founding Bloggers, then form your own opinion.
Things like this are why I don't count on the cops for anything. I count on myself and my guns, which is why I'm so adamant about my 2nd Amendment rights.
Every officer in the building when this happened ought to be shitcanned without pension and brought up on sexual assault charges. This wasn't some out-of-control crackhead they were dealing with, it was the victim of a crime, who was victimized again. If they can't handle their duties any better than this, they shouldn't be cops.

Far Out, Man
Scientists have discovered a black hole bigger than Hussein's yammering pie-trap. The biggest one yet, even.
At the heart of the M87 galaxy, fairly close by cosmic standards, lies a black hole with a mass 6.4 billion times that of the sun. I think that officially qualifies it for "Big Honkin' Black Hole" status.
This may help to shed new light on the growth and formation of galaxies, and help to solve the paradox of quasar mass. Exciting stuff, for sure.

Really cool stuff at Space.com.

Enough Already, Brit...
Another day, another scandal for Britney Spears. She's got some topless pics floating around the web again, apparently taken during a video shoot. They're not that good, and don't reveal much, which I find irritating. I think the time has come for Britney to make up her friggin' mind.
Brit, either keep your clothes on, or pose for Playboy and be done with it. Grow up and be sexy and classy and tasteful, or don't...I don't care which, but pick a side of the fence for crying out loud.
Trust me, ya ain't missing anything, but if you need to look...story here.

More Misleading Info From the Anti-Gun Crowd
This anti-gun crowd we have in this country...they really should get top marks for smoke, mirrors, bullshit, and self-righteous spleen. They are outstanding in that regard. Where they are always lacking is clarity, fact, and reasoning.
Their latest gaffe concerns a new bill before the Wisconsin Senate, one that would allow 10-year-olds to hunt provided they were with a responsible adult and did not carry a firearm of their own. The state's current age limit is 12. The sponsor of the bill is a Democrat, which goes to show how deeply entrenched the hunting culture is in Wisconsin: it's not a party-centric thing. They take their hunting as seriously as they do the Packers and cheese. And Wisconsin is made for hunting: beautiful, woodsy, scenic...I love the place. Wisconsin is Illinois' largest state park. (Call me a FIB, will ya, ya cheese-head bastards?)
But the bill has the anti-gunners up in arms. Critics say a "potentially fatal accident is bound to occur" if the age is lowered. Like every hunting trip, regardless of the ages involved, doesn't have the potential for a fatal accident? Firearms are involved, and if stupid people do stupid things with guns, people can die. Just like when stupid people drive cars or swing golf clubs.
One of the critics, a group called Common Sense About Guns & Kids, says that in 2005, there were 56 firearm deaths of children and teens in Wisconsin. They say 20 were suicides and 3 were accidents. Tragic, but where is the relation? Not a single mention of hunting. And remember, we're talking about opposition to a hunting bill, here.
Another mention is of an 8-year-old boy shooting himself in the head with an Uzi at a Massachusetts gun show? Tragic? Yes. Relevant? No. Idiots at a gun show allowed this to happen, not hunters in the woods.
One Wisconsin resident, Shirley Lochowitz, stated: "I wouldn't feel comfortable hunting standing next to a 10-year-old with a gun. I'm not sure that age level has the full capacity of what could happen quickly without the child even realizing that something is going wrong. It only takes a split second." Well, Shirley, let me tell you: I'd feel much more comfortable standing next to my armed 10-year-old than next to someone who obviously struggles with coherent thought holding a rifle. And for the record, my 10-year-old is a pretty good shot.
Lochowitz is the founder of Other End of the Barrel, a group that promotes the safe storage of firearms. Her 26-year-old son survived a gunshot wound to the stomach when he was twelve; a gunshot inflicted by an idiot 14-year-old showing off his loaded gun, not on a hunting trip, but in the house. She goes on to say that she's worried that 10-year-olds might not have the maturity level necessary to handle firearms. Which, of course, is a load of crap. If children, at any age, are taught to respect and properly handle firearms, there should never be an issue. And frankly, I know grown men that I wouldn't let within shouting distance of my guns, because they lack the maturity to be around them.
Ladd Everitt, spokesman for the Coalition to End Gun Violence (one of the biggest, and most ignorant and vociferous anti-gun groups), pipes up about screening processes, dealer oversight, and loopholes that could be used by "dangerous individuals" to gain access to guns. Again, how is this relevant to a hunting bill in Wisconsin? Well, it ain't...but it's another example of how the anti-gun crowd uses every opportunity, no matter how vague or disconnected, to promote their agenda.
Good luck to Wisconsin S.B. 167.
From my cold, dead hands.

No More Newsweek...EVER!
Not that I really read the rag very much anyway, but occasionally I'd see one lying around and leaf through it for kicks. Never fucking again!
Why all the rage, my phantom cavalier, you may ask? Why all the hatin'?
Well, after soundly boxing your ears for saying "Why all the hatin'?" to me, I'd point out the utter foolishness, the outright stupidity, the fawning ass-kissing of the wretched excrement that passes for an editor at Newsweak, one Evan Thomas. Thomas said, in an interview on MSNBC, that Hussein was above America..."sort of God."
That assessment, in any context, is absolutely, 100%, totally pure-D fucking WRONG! It is the epitome of stupid to even suggest such a thing even offhandedly. Because we're not talking about the "Clapton is God" kind of idolatry this brings up, but more of the "Worship the State/God does not exist" type of thing. Another example of the media trying to deify Hussein.
So, let me be blunt in my response: Fuck Evan Thomas, Fuck Newsweek, and Fuck Obama.

Anyone? Anyone?
Does anyone have a clue as to how Hussein's economic plan is going to fix the economy? Creating or "saving" (read: doing nothing about) 600,000 jobs while the jobless rate is at the highest in 25 years? Can't see that doing much. Throwing more money at the problem? I seem to remember that people spending money they couldn't afford (mostly given to them by laws and programs started in the Clinton years) is what got us into this mess in the first place.
Bammy is as clueless in economics as he is on foreign policy, and he's not too good at domestic policy, either. So who can tell me why this clown got elected?
