An Apology to my Readers
Hi, Friends; For those of you who aren’t interested in politics, I want to apologize for my recent spate of blog entries regarding Obama’s handling of the budget crisis, universal health care, and the Cap and Trade bill. I keep … Continue reading
Obama Said:
Obama said: “Under my plan of a cap and trade system, electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket.” (January 2008). He’s right. Call your senators now and tell them to vote against the Cap and Trade bill! He also, repeatedly and vigorously, … Continue reading
It’s Raining!
How about that! It’s raining in East Texas. With enough volume of water that it’s not just turning into steam and boiling off the surface. Of course, that means in a couple of days I’m going to need to … Continue reading

We Need a New Law
On Friday, the House of Representatives passed the Cap and Trade bill, without reading it. It was 1090 pages long, before 300 more pages were added Thursday night! No Representatives were given the chance to read the complete bill before … Continue reading
The House Passed the Cap and Trade Bill
Yesterday, the House passed the 1500 plus page Cap and Trade Bill that nobody has had time to read. I’m more afraid of the U.S. Congress than I am of terrorists. I can shoot back, at terrorists. If it passes … Continue reading
Carbon Cap and Trade
Obama is trying to get his carbon cap and trade bill pushed through, in spite of a wellspring of scientists who point out that there is no certain evidence of man-made global warming, and no certain evidence that carbon dioxide … Continue reading
Obama Will Ration Health Care
Obama and the Democrats don’t like for people to talk about rationing health care – yet they are already planning on it. They know they can’t pay for the health care plan they are trying to pass, and Obama himself … Continue reading
J Has it Right
My son J , up in New York, has it right, some of the time – like right now. Here in East Texas, it is 97°F with a heat index of 105°F. The high is actually 100°F which we will … Continue reading
What Hath Obama Wrought?
This is what it has come to already. Gangster Government. How much further will it go, before enough Americans realize what they are doing, and we stop it? This video makes clear some of what is going on that may … Continue reading

The Second Amendment
A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the People to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. I’m glad that I live in this country, where we, the citizens, have … Continue reading
Obama Apologetics
I was reading comments on another unrelated blog, and someone commented: “Everyone’s quick to blame Obama, forgetting the fact that he’s trying to clean up the eight year mess Bush got this country into.” Truth to tell, I’m getting tired … Continue reading
Oh, Come On… Folding Knives???
This is nigh on unbelievable. Our illustrious (demented) government is making a move to outlaw any folding knife that can be opened with one hand! What IS it with these people??? I’ve probably got ten or so such knives laying … Continue reading

A Comparison of Today and the Wild West
Brigid, of Home on the Range, has done it again! I wish I could get, well, everybody, to read her post. Things you probably didn’t know about the Wild West. And, in large part, why I hold some of the … Continue reading

Motorcycling Has it’s Risks
Yesterday, Friday, I was riding my Suzuki DR650SE through some residential streets on the way to the mechanic’s shop; they had my old van. Anyhow, I was going down a perfectly straight stretch of road at the posted 30 MPH … Continue reading

Obama Said:
Speaking about the Iranian protesters, Obama said “And we stand behind those who are seeking justice in a peaceful way.“ It’s a darn good thing that George Washington and our other forefathers didn’t think this way, or we’d still be … Continue reading

Still Sick…
I’m at work, but I’m still sick. I don’t feel all that great, and I’ve nearly completely lost my voice. This does have some unanticipated good side effects. For instance, my co-workers have taken mercy on me, and I don’t … Continue reading

I’ve Been a Bit Under the Weather
I came down with something Tuesday, that I thought was a sinus attack, but now I’m not so sure. I don’t think there’s been any fever, but I have a lot of drainage and I feel not so good. I’m … Continue reading

North Korean Nukes
What follows is my understanding of the North Korean nuclear standoff, based on my admittedly limited information sources and understanding. This opinion should by no means be considered gospel; it’s just what it looks like from where I sit, for … Continue reading

Add to the List
I guess I’ll have to add Bill Maher to the list. That would be the list of people who’s morality is so low that they are contemptible. He sides with David Letterman, regarding Letterman’s jokes about the Palin daughters. I … Continue reading
