WOO HOO! I've Finished My Christmas Shopping!

I placed my last gift order last night, and I received the last gift for myself today. I got an Amazon kindle. It is amazing! Of course the first book I downloaded was a King James Bible for just $4.50.
Kindle books are 1/2 to 1/3 the price of regular books. So, I'm thinking the more I read, the more I'll save. Kinda like Obama's economic policy. Spend money to get out of debt.

It uses ink that is electronically positioned on the page. So, when I flip the page, it powers up, places the ink and powers down again, in a fraction of a second, saving battery power. The display is larger than the average hard-cover book, and the font size can be adjusted. Since it isn't back-lit, it can be read even in bright sunlight.

Oh, and it has a speech function, so if I'm too lazy to read, I can turn it on and it will speak the words. I have someone to read to me at bedtime!

No post-purchase regrets this time!

Low-Bow-Mao

I'm getting tired of seeing this president present his backside to the American people. This is not a left or right issue. I lived in Japan for six years. And thanks to my wife's job I rubbed elbows with a lot of high-ranking muckety-mucks The leader of the world's only superpower does NOT bow lower than someone else. Obama's bow should not have exceeded 15 degrees. That was not a bow, it was groveling, and it was NOT a sign of respect, but of weakness.

And, it is just goofy to shake hands while bowing. The entire purpose of the bow is to avoid physical contact. So, Obama was not only groveling, he was disrespecting the emperor.

Does he have NO protocol experts on his staff? I wonder if he gave the emperor a gift. Maybe an incompatible boxed set of Powerpuff DVDs?

What's In My Head

RATS!

Obama is in Asia. That's my beat. So, I have to chronical his insipid speeches and remarks with no indication of how I feel about the "man." This guy simply cannot give a speech without making it about him. Here are some excerpts from a 40-MINUTE speech he made in Japan.

It is wonderful to be back in Japan. When I was a young boy, my mother brought
me to Kamakura, where I looked up at that centuries-old symbol of peace and
tranquility - the great bronze Amida Buddha. As a child, I was more focused on
the matcha ice cream. But I have never forgotten the warmth and hospitality
that the Japanese people showed a young American far from home.

And of course, I could not come here without sending greetings and my gratitude to the citizens of Obama, Japan.

I am beginning my journey here for a simple reason. Since taking office, I have
worked to renew American leadership and pursue a new era of engagement with the
world based on mutual interests and mutual respect.

My own life is a part of that story. I am an American President who was born in
Hawaii and lived in Indonesia as a boy. My sister Maya was born in Jakarta, and
later married a Chinese-Canadian. My mother spent nearly a decade working in
the villages of Southeast Asia, helping women buy a sewing machine or an
education that might give them a foothold in the world economy. So the Pacific
rim has helped shape my view of the world.

ASEAN will remain a catalyst for Southeast Asian dialogue, cooperation and security, and I look
forward to becoming the first American President to meet with all ten of its
leaders.

as America's first Pacific President, I promise you that this Pacific nation will
strengthen and sustain our leadership in this vitally important part of the
world.

So, now he's America's first Pacific president. It's all about Obama.

A Pretty Good Day

So, I took Sarah and Willow in for their distemper and rabies shots this morning. While I was there, I mentioned that I was going to Applebee's for a free lunch. One of the young vet techs said, "I think you're awsome, Mr. ______." I told her, "I get that a lot -- from women who are young enough to be my daughter."

Got to Applebee's and the line was out the door -- into the cold rain. I waited about half an hour in the rain and another half hour inside. The vets worked out a system. We passed WWII vets to the head of the line followed by Korean vets and the Vietnam vets. After that, it was every man for himself. As I was standing in line, some old guy came up to me and gave me a 1957 Eisenhower silver dollar. He said, "I think every vet should have a souvenir." Don't know why he came up to me. Maybe it was my Stargate Command flight jacket.

The meal was OK. I make a better steak and I make WAY better coleslaw. But seeing and listening to all the people made the wait worthwhile. On my way out, I gave the silver dollar to a WWII WAVE. That was quite an honor.

Yup. A pretty good day.

Veterans' Day

For all you vets, Applebees is going to offer a free meal for all veterans and active duty personnel on Wednesday. You can see the details here. Since I just started low-carbing, I think I'll go for the sirloin.

The Commies at the NEA

Apparently, the National Education Association has become emboldened by having a Marxist in the White House, because they are no longer even bothering to hide their communist agenda.

The teachers' union is openly pushing the books of radical leftist Saul Alinsky, who was one of Obama's inspirations and role models.

I often think the only reason liberals don't abort ALL their children is so they can exploit them and seed future generations with the discredited communist agenda.

You can take Marx out of the gene pool, but you can't take Marxism out of liberals.

Is There a Vaccination for That?

Experts at MSNBC discovered yesterday that Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is contagious. Presumably, Kathleen Sibelius is whipping up a vaccine which will soon be placed into the uber efficient HHS delivery system.

I showed you that, so I could show you this.

SEATTLE (AP) -- A man accused of shooting and killing a police officer on Halloween night is also suspected of firebombing police cruisers and other property nine days earlier, police said Saturday.
At a news conference, Seattle Assistant Police Chief Jim Pugel identified 41-year-old Christopher Monfort as the man shot by police on Friday as he was sought in connection with the killing of Officer Timothy Brenton. Pugel also said investigators found improvised explosive devices at Monfort's apartment.
"This man, from everything we can tell is a lone domestic terrorist," Pugel said. "At this moment we cannot find any ties to anyone else."

Apparently, non-Muslims have an immunity to PTSD. Because there seem to be NO Muslim domestic terrorists.

RATS!

I've been assigned to write stories on the health care bill tonight, so I might as well live blog it.

10:15 The House just passed an amendment banning federal funding of abortions except in some cases. Sixty-four Democras joined 176 Republicans in voting for it. Since abortion is the crown jewel in the liberal crown, this really means nothing because as long as dems control Congress, they can change it later on.

10:30 House just rejected the Republican alternative bill. The Republican plan was considerably smaller and more targeted than the one put forth by Democrats, focusing on cost controls and curbing medical malpractice lawsuits.

10:30 Expecting final vote on health care bill within the hour. This is like watching the British House. Lots of yelling, booing and cheering.

11:05. Bill has passed! Cheers from democrats. 220 for, 215 against. One Republican from Louisiana voted for it. The bill must now pass in the Senate, which is preparing its own version. Differences between the House and Senate versions will have to be reconciled and approved by another vote before the bill goes to Obama for his signature.

So, hope is not lost. There is still a long row to hoe.

Something That Works

I was in Bed, Bath and Beyond a few days ago and spotted the Turbo Snake. For the past three months, every time I took a shower, I'd end up standing in water up to my ankles. All the Liquid Plumber in the world didn't make a difference. So, I shoved this wire down the drain and in less than a minute, the problem was fixed! Well worth the price.

On the downside, considering the ball of hair I pulled out of the drain, I fear I'm a werewolf.

Buy Insurance or Go To Jail

If liberal programs are so wonderful, why do they have to be forced on people?

There is a reason Pelosi won't post her health care "reform" bill on line for people to read.

She's afraid you might stumble on things like this. If you "opt out," you go to prison.

“Criminal penalties

Prosecution is authorized under the Code for a variety of offenses. Depending on the level of the noncompliance, the following penalties could apply to an individual:

• Section 7203 – misdemeanor willful failure to pay is punishable by a fine of up to $25,000 and/or imprisonment of up to one year.

• Section 7201 – felony willful evasion is punishable by a fine of up to $250,000 and/or imprisonment of up to five years.” [page 3]

Man-Made Disaster Hits Fort Hood

An American, an Army major opens fire on an Army post, killing 13 people and wounding 30.

Oh, and he's a Muslim. And he's a psychiatrist -- a well-educated man. No unwashed Taliban is he.

One of the insane things here is that military bases are no-gun zones. Military personnel on base are just as defenseless as civilians in towns where guns are banned. These mass shootings almost always happen in areas where people are denied their human right of self-defense.

This proves something I have contended for years. We are at war with an enemy who could be anywhere among us. If a U.S. Army officer can turn killer, who can we trust? We cannot have a reasonable expectation of safety ANYWHERE. That's why I go around armed.

Awwwwwwwwwwww

The Future of An ObamaNation

I just found a fascinating blog that chronicles the disintegration of a city under liberalism. Detroitblog has archives going back to July of 2003. There are plenty of photos and it is written by a local journalist, so it's an easy read and quite interesting. No coincidence that Detroit is the most liberal, the most violent and the most ravaged city in the country. This is where progressives will take us -- if we let them.

FOX NEWS IS A CULT! AAAAAAH!!!

The left is getting more and more hysterical about Fox News. NOW, they say it's a cult!

Let's look at some of the attributes of a cult.

The group displays excessively zealous and unquestioning commitment to its leader and regards his belief system, ideology, and practices as the Truth, as law.

Questioning, doubt, and dissent are discouraged or even punished.

The leadership dictates, sometimes in great detail, how members should think, act, and feel.

The group is elitist, claiming a special, exalted status for itself, its leader(s) and members (for example, the leader is considered the Messiah, a special being, an avatar—or the group and/or the leader is on a special mission to save humanity).

The group has a polarized us-versus-them mentality, which may cause conflict with the wider society.

The leader is not accountable to any authorities (unlike, for example, teachers or military commanders.

The group teaches or implies that its supposedly exalted ends justify whatever means it deems necessary.

If George W. Bush had failed to send relief aid to flood victims throughout the Midwest with more people killed or made homeless than in New Orleans , would you want it made into a major ongoing political issue with claims of racism and incompetence?

If George W. Bush had created the position of 32 Czars who report directly to him, bypassing the House and Senate on much of what is happening in America , would you have approved.

If George W. Bush had ordered the firing of the CEO of a major corporation, even though he had no constitutional authority to do so, would you have approved?

Sarah meet Oprah

Sarah Palin will be on Oprah November 16th! I wish she wasn't doing OPRAH. Her book sales do not need her. But I guess she has to reach out to that side. They will be so mean to her. I don't know how she does it. Does anyone have to guess what the opening of SNL will be the Friday after this show? I stopped watching Oprah a while ago. I guess this means I get to TiVo Oprah one last time. I thought I would miss Oprah but I really don't. Why is she doing this?
