Associations do matter.... in some things..

Hat tip to Trish!

Isn't this something to think about!

If Barack Obama would apply for a job with the FBI or with the Secret Service, he would be disqualified because of his past association with William Ayers, a known terrorist. For this same reason, he would be disqualified from joining the military.

If he is elected President he would not qualify to be his own body guard!

Obama, Jake, melting cakes and tears.

Hello chums, glad to see you are alive and checking in to see if I am.

Well, as Mark Twain is reputed to have said, "The rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated." Or something like that. Now if I could just Tom Sawyer someone into picking up the leaves here at the Palatial Retirement Compound things would be Jake.

I don't know, or at least can't remember, where "things would be Jake," comes from. I guess not knowing and can't remember comes out the same, except I have found that the latter becomes larger while other things become smaller and thank goodness for Google. For with it I shall soon be able to know everything that ever happened to anyone. Now, don't YOU wish you had purchased the PPV of last night's UT's beating of the mighty Bulldogs?

No? You say one swallow a summer does not make? My, my what a doubting Thomas you are.

My, my brings me to American Pie and driving Chevys to levees. Or something like that. I think that song was the start of the end for me and pop music. I can't say why. But I do know that whiskey is scotch, rye is made from rye and bourbon is made from corn except for Maker's Mark which is wheat based.

A friend once told me that for someone who loved "McArthur's Park" I had no right to complain. True, but you didn't need to listen to Donna Summer sing, just looking was enough. She can also sing, which is icing on the cake, even cakes left out in the rain.

Jake, of course, is mostly a nickname for John. I have a friend named John who was a Jake many years ago. We did some unreasonable things together as younger men, actually older boys, although both improved with age. He became a minister and I, well, let's just say I aged. As any poker player will tell you, Luck Does Count.

Which brings me to Hussein. Although I admit he is good, he had the good luck to run into a campaign by Hillary that she thought of as a coronation and now one by McCain that he can't seem to understand that there are issues that are mean and nasty and that he isn't serving the country by not bringing them forward.

So while Hussein mouths sweet nothings about the economy and attacks a plumber for asking questions McCain should have, McCain continues to claim that civility is THE issue.

No, John. Winning is the issue. The only issue.

This campaign will be remembered as the campaign ran during the middle of a war in which the war was mentioned only fleetingly, if at all.

Jake and I and John McCain have seen the beginning. We will not live to see the middle or the end. I shed tears for those that will. I pray that we will have enough of older boys who will become hard men to do the hard things that Hussein's minions run from.

Obama and Obama and Joe who??

It appears that Joe the Plumber does not have a license and is actually just an apprentice, although at the end of same....

Wow.... How dare him ask questions of The Chosen One?

That's sarcasm, dear chums.

Reminds me of the child who noted that the Emperor had no clothes.

hehe

In the meantime we still have not seen Hussein's certified birth certificate...

Funny. The media can vet a guy who plans to be a plumber better than they can a guy who wants to be President.

Something wrong in that....

All hail Queen Michelle!

This is just purely outrageous. We fought a revolution to get away from this shit.

NOTE AT 7:17 P.M. ET: I cannot independently confirm the following, but it comes from an excellent source whom I trust, a man I've known for some time. "When Michelle Obama was on 'Ellen,' all staff and crew were ordered not to look her in the eyes, but had to keep their eyes down."

COMMENT: Judge for yourself. She will be first lady.

Fom Here to Dubai?

And isn't this a great reason to:

Drill here.

Drill now.

Be independent.

Facts be facts dear chums, and western culture is not, I repeat is not, compatible with cultures who do things like this:

A Dubai court sentenced two Britons to three months in prison on Thursday and ordered their subsequent deportation for having sex on a beach in the booming Muslim Gulf emirate.

Michelle Palmer, 37, and Vince Acors, 34, were found guilty of having sex in a public place in the early hours of July 5 after drinking heavily.

Both are still free on bail and were not in court to hear the verdict in the highly publicised case.

The defence said it would appeal, although the relatively moderate ruling showed that they only committed an indecent act in public and did not actually have sex.

But the prosecution said there was evidence they did have sexual intercourse and that it might appeal the "light" sentence.

If they do this for screwing on the beach...late at night...do you understand the mentality that hangs female rape victims and gays in Iran?

If these guys ever see "From Here to Eternity," their heads will explode when they come to the beach scene.

Obama and national defense

I'm still punked out and in a rotten mood, as my various posts undoubtedly show. In an effort to get back to reality I have went back to why this election is important beyond taxes and the stock market.

National Security.

There is little doubt that the Democrats are anti-war and as such they have no base at all for national defense. Their continual demands that terrorist suspects captured over seas be afforded a full up US criminal justice system trial says it all and it is amazing to me that the Repubs haven't hung that around Hussein's neck.

I have little doubt that if Hussein is elected we will be attacked within 12 months in an attempt to motivate the Democrats into withdrawing from the ME in total.

Much of the Left's arguments is that our security measures have been criticized by the "rest of the world" and that, for some unknown reason is "bad." Actually, as this article shows, we are not that different.

The minister also indicated that "Certain problem areas in our suburbs also remain choice target for Salafist activities. The youth are then sent to theological education in the Muslim world and attend Koranic schools, like the madrassas of Pakistan, Egypt and Yemen."

This is troubling. These people, children actually, aren't being sent to improve their worldly knowledge, and they aren't Rhodes scholars. How to keep up with them becomes an interesting exercise.

"Like Pakistan or Yemen, we do communicate, in agreement with the airlines, the names and dates of departure and arrivals of passengers reported as dangerous. We want to extend this watch to other countries and to flights with a stopover, which would prevent for example going through Switzerland when coming from Pakistan in order to cover up tracks. Finally, we would like to know if passengers travel alone or accompanied. It's important to prevent hijacking of planes."

Such a statement is surprising as many critics in the United States blast Washington for establishing lists of passengers from countries at risk while claiming that Europeans do not. Now we hear the French minister of interior clarifying that these lists exist and that they are part of the French national security apparatus. This demonstrates that the prevention policy in a country very sensitive to civil liberties such as France, can work as a component of counter terrorism measures

And this again goes back to Ayers and Hussein's relationship and how they funded radical schools.

Radicals, dear chums are radicals. If you have a common enemy the next step is cooperation. Think about it.
