LMAO - Global Warming

Vendors and presenters from various eco-friendly groups, including Bullfrog Power, CO2 Reduction Edmonton and the local solar energy society, crammed into a lone tent in Hawrelak Park after a blizzard forced them to abandon their original locations

Pay no attention to the blizzard behind the screen.

Hussein's new name??

This from Bizzy Blog is good. Very good.

Translation: The presidential candidate I refer to as Mr. BOOHOO-OUCH (Barack O-bomba Overseas Hussein “Obambi” Obama - Objectively Unfit Coddler of Haters) has richly earned the words behind the seventh and eighth letters in his BizzyBlog-formulated acronym.

But I still like "Hussein." Short. Simple. And with so many reminders embedded in it.

A music break...

Enjoy.

Immigration - how many - how fast

I am not sure how accurate this, but it offers some good points. Please read the complete article.

Islam is not a religion nor is it a cult. It is a complete system.

Islam has religious, legal, political, economic and military components. The religious component is a beard for all the other components.

Islamization occurs when there are sufficient Muslims in a country to agitate for their so-called 'religious rights.'

When politically correct and culturally diverse societies agree to 'the reasonable' Muslim demands for their 'religious rights,' they also get the other components under the table. Here's how it works (percentages source CIA: The World Fact Book (2007)).

However, in our past, the newcomers settled into ghettos, and then were assimilated over the next generations. But remember that they had very few reminders of the "old country." Today there is very cheap travel and telecommunications that keep the new comer tied to the old country. Plus, there is local radio, plus Spanish TV and for the Muslim, al-Jazeera. And the politicians, especially Left wing Demos, target and try to use this as a wedge to keep'em in the ghettos and voting as told. But none of the new arrivals offer the problems of the new Muslim. In a land that prides itself on being tolerant, it is easy to see how we can just fold to their demands because "diversity is good."

It is with those thoughts that I view this:

From Audacity of Hope: "I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction."

However, that is not correct. Here is the correct version.

UPDATE AND CORRECTION: From reader Dan, with thanks:

The actual quote from the book is from page 261 and is as follows: "Of course, not all my conversations in immigrant communities follow this easy pattern. In the wake of 9/11, my meetings with Arab and Pakistani Americans, for example, have a more urgent quality, for the stories of detentions and FBI questioning and hard stares from neighbors have shaken their sense of security and belonging. They have been reminded that the history of immigration in this country has a dark underbelly; they need specific reassurances that their citizenship really means something, that America has learned the right lessons from the Japanese internments during World War II, and that I will stand with them should the political winds shift in an ugly direction."

But a reasonable person will note that there is no significant differences between the short version and the actual quotation. However, when leveling charges, it is always necessary to be as accurate as possible.

So again we have something that Hussein should have to explain. Only this time he can't condemn the statements without condemning himself. He is caught with no escape, yet the pundits won't ask the question because it is the coup de grace of his campaign.

Class over, chums. Time for a hot bath and a cold Stoly... on the rocks with nothing on the side.

And my thanks to Larry P.

Bits and pieces and gasoline prices

Just filled up the Buick, the price per gallon was $3.45.9, might as well say $3.46. Crude went over $117.00 today based on the fact that a rocket hit an oil tanker.... Or at least that is the excuse of the commodity traders. There is little doubt that Bush has two choices.

1. Take action of some type to try and force the prices down.

2. Take no action and give the keys of government to Hussein or Hillary.

God help us.

Other than watching us being raped by OPEC and the commodity traders today was gorgeous. Kinda like:

"Other than that, how was the play Mrs. Lincoln?"

And the taxes the Demos will levy on the middle class and above will finish off the economy as sure as Smoot Hartley worsened the Depression. But I digress.

Worked in the yard, sharpened my lawn mower's blades, sprayed weed killer... Unfortunately Pope Algore's failure to get Global Warming when we needed it has left me in a quandary. Shall I wait and watch my cold damaged tomato plants die a slow and natural death, or shall I just go ahead and replace them. Decisions decisions.

Speaking of decisions.... The local school board, which is always broke and begging for more money...has decided that the trauma of children changing schools at the fifth and ninth grade is too much to bear and they must now be split into only two groups....k-8 and 9-12 instead of k-4, 5-8 and 9-12. The superintendent has hinted that if she doesn't get her way she will leave.

One can hope.

Returning to the yard... I have a fine crop of toads and lizards. That means no snakes. Since the Blue Racer was at the edge of the woods perhaps they have decided to not try and live in the flower beds this year.

Speaking of two reptiles...........

Tomorrow will be interesting. I have heard polls from Hillary at 11 over to 1 over. That tells me that no one knows what's going on. So here's mine.

Hillary at 7. Remember were you heard it.

Later chums!

Flag pins and Barack Hussein Obama

Good morning everyone! Are we having fun yet? Ready to dash back into the world of work? No? Sorry about that.

The phrase "Sorry about that" came into use before and during the time that William Ayers, aka the English professor and friend of Hussein that never spoke to him, was a member of the Weather Underground.

In 1970 the group issued a "Declaration of a State of War" against the United States government, under the name "Weather Underground Organization" (WUO), and members adopted fake identities and pursued violent covert activities. They carried out a domestic terror campaign in the United States, consisting of bombings, jailbreaks, and riots. Their attacks were mostly bombings of government buildings between 1969 and 1975, although they were also notable for the Greenwich Village townhouse explosion which claimed the lives of three of their own members in 1970.

The meaning of the phrase was basically an acknowledgement of a complaint/problem/situation but without sympathy. As essentially black humor it was widely favored by the military. But I digress.

The question that rises to the surface of the bubbling pot of nonsense that is Hussein's campaign is why Hussein would have anything to do with him. As someone who has received all that America has to give, why wouldn't Hussein shun a person who attacked the country?

The answer is in doubt. We know that when it comes to people attacking the country, the Reverend Wright for instance, he has said that he condemns the attacks, but not the man. What does it take for him to condemn the acts and the man?

The question is further highlighted when we view the video of him declaring that he won't wear "that pin" on his lapel. The pin in question, of course, being a US flag pin. Said flag, of course, flies over the graves of thousands of dead soldiers, sailors and airmen who died so that A MAN WHO WANTS TO BE PRESIDENT can not wear it. Instead he is mouthing nonsense that he wants to convince us he is a patriot.

Yesterday on ABC's "This Week," John McCain said he was sure that Hussein was "very patriotic." I don't believe he is.

I think McCain is sometimes too kind. I'm not.

Sorry about that.
