The differences between us and them

Got this from Mike L. I think it defines the difference between the Left and Right and us average joes and janes...
I just received my bill from AT&T for mobile service. It had increased by $1.02 from last month's. After reviewing, I discovered that the
increase was listed under the heading "Credits, Adjustments & Other Charges" as "Regulatory Cost Recovery Charge".

I called AT&T and, after a 3 minute wait on hold (it might have been shorter if I had pressed 2 for Spanish) I got an agent who looked the charge up. She said the the federal government raised the rate. When I asked her if Obama an company was responsible for that, the line got very quiet. She was at a loss for words!

I thanked her for her time and assured her that I did not hold AT&T to blame for this, then terminated the call.

In my opinion, King Barry has started his "share the wealth" plan in subtle ways and I caught him.

Now, I have vented and feel better.

Regards,

Mike L


Mike! You call that venting??? No "truth to power?" Didn't wish ATT to collapse from kidney failure? What kind of RWNJ are you??

Country goes Conservative??


PRINCETON, NJ -- Thus far in 2009, 40% of Americans interviewed in national Gallup Poll surveys describe their political views as conservative, 35% as moderate, and 21% as liberal. This represents a slight increase for conservatism in the U.S. since 2008, returning it to a level last seen in 2004. The 21% calling themselves liberal is in line with findings throughout this decade, but is up from the 1990s.


The question then becomes, how did Obamie win???

I mean if the moderates split 50-50 then you 57.5% for McCain.... Even if the "slight increase" was 5%, then you have around 53% for McCain.. So the conclusion has to be that:

1. ACRON stole the election for Obamie, or

2. A bunch of dumb ass Moderates stupidly voted for Obamie.

now I don't think ACRON stole the election. It wasn't close enough, although I have no doubt but they would have if needed. So.......

Congratulations dear Dumb Assess. You just helped a Marxist destroy the world's greatest country. Oh, offended by being called Dumb Assess? Well, Lenin did say....

Useful idiots...

Now the question is, have you learned anything? Time will tell, eh?

Ray Nagin's bio??


Mayor C. Ray Nagin, City of New Orleans
Mayor Nagin led and managed the largest mass evacuation and biggest natural disaster in the history of the United States in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. Mayor Nagin developed the Bring New Orleans Back Commission which sought widespread community input and deliberations to rebuild and improve the city's infrastructure and economic development, urban and city planning, education, healthcare, government effectiveness, culture and tourism.

Pure utter bullshit. He led nothing. He managed nothing.

In fact, by delaying the call to evacuate he contributed to the problem.

The perfect storm

is hitting us, yet we pay no attention the increasing winds.




Pay no attention to this.

For the second time in little over a year, it looks as though the world may be heading for a serious food crisis, thanks to our old friend "climate change". In many parts of the world recently the weather has not been too brilliant for farmers. After a fearsomely cold winter, June brought heavy snowfall across large parts of western Canada and the northern states of the American Midwest. In Manitoba last week, it was -4ÂșC. North Dakota had its first June snow for 60 years.

There was midsummer snow not just in Norway and the Cairngorms, but even in Saudi Arabia. At least in the southern hemisphere it is winter, but snowfalls in New Zealand and Australia have been abnormal. There have been frosts in Brazil, elsewhere in South America they have had prolonged droughts, while in China they have had to cope with abnormal rain and freak hailstorms, which in one province killed 20 people.


Doesn't mean a thing.

In Europe, the weather has been a factor in well-below average predicted crop yields in eastern Europe and Ukraine. In Britain this year's oilseed rape crop is likely to be 30 per cent below its 2008 level. And although it may be too early to predict a repeat of last year's food shortage, which provoked riots from west Africa to Egypt and Yemen, it seems possible that world food stocks may next year again be under severe strain, threatening to repeat the steep rises which, in 2008, saw prices double what they had been two years before.

There are obviously various reasons for this concern as to whether the world can continue to feed itself, but one of them is undoubtedly the downturn in world temperatures, which has brought more cold and snow since 2007 than we have known for decades.


Details, details, details.

It is now more than 200 years since the great astronomer William Herschel observed a correlation between wheat prices and sunspots. When the latter were few in number, he noted, the climate turned colder and drier, crop yields fell and wheat prices rose. In the past two years, sunspot activity has dropped to its lowest point for a century. One of our biggest worries is that our politicians are so fixated on the idea that CO2 is causing global warming that most of them haven't noticed that the problem may be that the world is not warming but cooling, with all the implications that has for whether we get enough to eat.


Yes, but they can starve knowing they have helped Al Gore get richer.

It is appropriate that another contributory factor to the world's food shortage should be the millions of acres of farmland now being switched from food crops to biofuels, to stop the world warming, Last year even the experts of the European Commission admitted that, to meet the EU's biofuel targets, we will eventually need almost all the food-growing land in Europe. But that didn't persuade them to change their policy. They would rather we starved than did that. And the EU, we must always remember, is now our government – the one most of us didn't vote for last week.

The Perfect Diet


One of my favs...


Yesterday I was at my local Costco buying a couple of large bags of Kirkland Dog Food for our Greyhounds, Sheena, Spice, Angel, & Smoke and was in the checkout line when a woman behind me asked if I had a dog.

What did she think I had, an elephant?

So since I'm retired and have little to do, on impulse I told her that no, I didn't have a dog, I was starting the Costco Kirkland Diet again. I added that I probably shouldn't, because I ended up in the hospital last time, but that I'd lost 50 pounds before I awakened in an intensive care ward with tubes coming out of most of my orifices and IVs in both arms.

I told her that it was essentially a perfect diet and that the way that it works is to load your pants pockets with Costco Kirkland nuggets and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry. The food is nutritionally complete so it works well
and I was going to try it again. (I have to mention here that practically everyone in line was now enthralled with my story.)

Horrified, she asked if I ended up in intensive care because the dog food poisoned me. I told her no, I stepped off a curb to sniff an Irish Setter's butt and a car hit us both.

I thought the guy behind her was going to have a heart attack he was laughing so hard. Costco won't let me shop there anymore.


Hat tip to Mike L!

Letterman apologizes

Well, the Left's latest example of their lack of good taste and manhood has now apologized claiming that he wasn't talking about Sarah Palin's 14 year old daughter. It seems he thought she was traveling with her 18 year old.

Hey folks, it was just a simple mistake!

Laying aside that joking about any woman getting raped or being a prostitute, even if they are of legal age, is not acceptable, I think it obvious that he knew.

He did it two nights running. He has a huge staff and the first night's comments must have lit up the phone lines at CBS. Do you believe that no one on his staff said...

"Uh boss, the daughter at Yankee Stadium is only 14.... maybe you should cool it..."

He knew. He just so wanted to be cool and attack Palin via her daughter... send her a message that she mustn't run for Prez.....that he did it again the second night.

There was a time in this country when such actions would have meant the end of his employment at CBS. That CBS won't fire him is our national disgrace.
