Have you ever seen a Muslim kiss a Pig?

Okay, okay! It's a snark in terrible taste.... Come on now, didn't you grin a little? Besides, some will argue that half of this post's title is incorrect.

Question is, which half?

If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them." - Karl Popper

It has come to this

I swiped this from KurtP at  A train wreck in Maxwell, http://atrainwreckinmaxwell.blogspot.com/.

Mxxxxx ELECTRIC COOPERATIVE - is looking for a highly motivated team member to join our Hzzzzz District Office located at 237 Hwy. ABC N as an Automatic Meter Reader Technician. We offer a competitive salary and excellent benefits. Salary commensurate with education and experience; only qualified applicants will be considered. Pre-requisites: Must have an Associate’s degree or higher, at least 3 years experience in a technical capacity (electrical, communications or computers), and a valid TX driver’s license. Application available at www.hireEdizus.org or either Hzzzz office. Completed applications must be postmarked by Friday, April 20 and mailed to the address on the application. EOE. 4-12-1tc

He makes a beautiful point:

As in- we have all these college degrees floating around and we need to make them mean 'something'- so we'll make a requirement for a METER READER to have a college degree to drive a truck with an automatic meter reader in it.

In the meantime we have outsourced most of our manufacturing, almost all of our over the phone technical support and have enough government regulation to almost stop new business creation dead in its tracks.

But the government keeps loaning  money to kids so they can get a useless degree and wind up doing a job that a high school drop out would have done 20 years ago....  and the college costs keep going up.. and will as long as the government keeps providing them cannon fodder. The only people making out  here are the collection agencies.

You know, when you think about it that is the reason that Occupy Wall Street resonated with a lot of college kids and young adults, mostly Liberal Arts grads, who are just figuring out that saying, "Wanna biggie size that?" is all that college prepared them for and that they can't support themselves much less pay off those loans.

I almost feel sorry for them but feeling sorry for people who have done dumb things fixes nothing and if they find out about it they'll expect you to pay for their mistake. Even worse, they'll vote for Obama again because they can't make the connection that there is a difference in being paid for what you know and do versus what you think you know and don't do.

Michelle Obama's Thank You note

Dear American Taxpayer


For only the second time in my adult life, I am not  ashamed of my country. I want to thank the hard working American people for paying $242 thousand  dollars for my vacation in Spain .

My daughter Sasha, several long-time family friends, my personal staff and various guests had a wonderful time.

Honestly, you just haven't lived until you have stayed in a $2,500.00 per night private 3-story villa at a 5-Star luxury hotel.

Thank you also for the use of Air Force Two and the 70 Secret Service personnel who tagged along to be sure we were safe and cared for at all times.

By the way, if you happen to be visiting the Costa del Sol , I highly recommend the Buenaventura Plaza restaurant in Marbella ; great lobster with rice and oysters!

I'm ashamed to admit the lobsters we ate in Martha's Vineyard were not quite as tasty, but what can you do if you're not in Europe , you have to just grin and bear it?

Air Force Two (which costs $11,351 per hour to operate according to Government Accounting Office reports) only used 47,500 gallons of jet fuel for this trip and carbon emissions were a mere 1,031 tons of CO2.

These are only rough estimates, but they are close. That's quite a carbon footprint as my good friend Al Gore would say, so we must ask the Americann citizens to drive smaller, more fuel efficient cars and drive less too, so we can lessen our combined carbon footprint.

I know times are hard and millions of you are struggling to put food on the table and trying to make ends meet. So I do appreciate your sacrifices and do hope you find work soon.

I was really exhausted after Barack took our family on a luxury vacation in Maine a few weeks ago.

I just had to get away for a few days.



Cordially,

Michelle (Moochelle) Obama


P.S. Thank you as well for the $2 BILLION dollar trip to India!

P.SS. Thank you, too, for that vacation trip to Martha's Vineyard; it was fabulous!

And thanks for that second smaller jet that took our dog Bo to Martha's Vineyard so we and the children
could have him with us while we were away from the White House for eleven days. After all, we couldn't
take him on Air Force One because he might pee on some wires or something.

P.SSS. Oh, I almost forgot to say thanks also for our two-week trip to Hawaii at Christmas. That 7,000
square foot house was great!

P.SSSs don't forget my ski trip to Vail this winter and now the girls and I are in Africa with my mom.

All this while Barack golf's and campaigns to keep my trips coming for the next 4 years !

Love ya! Remember, we all have to share the pain of these economic times equally!

Hat tip to Bill T!
