I was going to rage against the criminals we have in Washington, and around the country who give us laws to follow, yet make themselves exempt. Then I said, “What the heck!” Why let a bunch of murderers and film flam artist ruin my life?
It is time to keep life simple and fun. Being a God believing man, I know how the whole story shakes out. This world takes a dive into the crapper, and just as it is about to implode our Lord and Saviour steps in and returns this Earth to the Eden God intended it to be. In the mean time, I got some things to do this summer. Bowling! yes, once again I am bowling two summer leagues. My Tuesday league is pretty amazing. Probably due to the simple fact that the average age of almost all of the bowlers is 112. Not really, but there are many who are the back side of 70. Which is awesome, because many of them are good. I guess it is no wonder why I like golf and bowling, other than the simp[le facts that I am not to shabby at either one, and I can participate for most of my life span.
Also got to get some fishing in this summer. I am going to join a small fishing club that my dad belonged to when he was alive. I will have to give it a once over. River banks tend to attract elements of our society that stink more than my favorite catfish bait. If all goes well though, I picture quite a few days if fishing with my two pups; BillWilly and B.W.. I have to get my money out of them, seeing I spent my retirement savings when they became ill this past year.
I also need to work on some road trips. Still want to get back to Laughlin Nevada for some golf and fishing on the Colorado River. I also want to try my hand at gold panning too.
Guess all in all I don’t have time to worry about junk I have no control over, though I sure I will from time to time. It is just nice to know, that whatever the heck is going on around me, I still will be enjoying myself.
This Merle song is an awesome commentary on today’s life in America. Here is my list of thoughts in no particular order or reason!
Hyphenated American labels: You know, Japanese, Chinese, African. Whatever happened to just being an American of “fill in the blank” decent.
Owning up to your bad choices, and not blaming your mamma, daddy, or position in life….or the color of your skin.
Calling bull crap when somebody says, or does something stupid. To a Christian Conservative like myself, “Stupid” has the same definition as “Porn”. Ya know it when you see it.
Giving thanks in public for the Man upstairs and not giving a rat’s rear what others think.
Buying pants that fit correctly, and don’t have stupid sayings on them. Goes for shirts too.
Not buying clothing that promotes communist or socialist revolutionaries.
Making fun of public figures that cry when they get rolled up for doing something stupid or illegal.
Why bombs were blasting in Boston, Barry Obama was busy bailing out the elected bums in congress. Sadly, I don’t think anything short of a large sink hole opening up and swallowing D.C. will stop these criminals.
Obama Signs Law Gutting Insider Trading Regulations For Congress

Yesterday President Obama signed a law that gutted the reporting requirements originally included in the Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge (STOCK) Act. Before these changes were made the STOCK Act required congressional staffers to disclose their finances to the public to help ensure they were not engaging in corrupt practices.
But on second thought, President Obama and Congress decided that congressional staffers should be able to escape transparency.
President Obama quietly signed legislation Monday that rolled back a provision of the STOCK Act that required high-ranking federal employees to disclose their financial information online.
The White House announced Monday that the president had signed S. 716, which repealed a requirement of the Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge (STOCK) Act requiring the disclosure, which had previously been delayed several times by Congress.
You never heard of this political project to reinstate corruption incentives? Don’t be surprised.
Both chambers of Congress quickly — and near silently — approved the repeal legislation at the end of last week by unanimous consent, just before heading home to their districts.
That’s right. Unanimous consent, no one wanted to put their name down as openly supporting corruption while supporting corruption. And now President Obama has signed the bill guaranteeing a more corrupt Washington.

Can’t believe I am using a title from a Hippie group like the Buffalo Spring Field band. As many of you know, I have taken a huge break from commenting on national politics. While it has been a refreshing break, and I plan to continue to post 99% of non political stuff, I just have to break the silence today.
I have just about resigned to the fact that our federal government no longer answers, no listens to the average hard-working citizen. I believe that the percentage of AHWC is probably no more than 40% of our population. This leaves a huge block of folks that want stuff for nothing, because they believe they are entitled to it. Mixed into this free-loading population, are the folks that are willing to give the fruits of their labor to these bottom feeders. I stumbled upon an article that talks about Repubs and dems, The Gang of 8, who are working on the sham and shaft, known as immigration Reform. Low and behold, Sr Marco Rubio is part of this group of traitors.
It’s also a problem for Sen. Marco Rubio, who is simultaneously helping to write the bill and preparing to run for president in 2016 as a supporter of the middle-class….
This Hillbilly believes we 35%-40%’ers will have to clump together in states like Texas, Arizona, Missouri, and Idaho and work our way into school boards, PTA, city council seats, and so on. Completely purge any folks who are of the 60%ers out of any type of positions that have any say over our culture,values,religion, borders, and language. It will work, because we did it back in 1776.
OK, I said my peace, so I will now go back into political black.
Right to the point: I have no problems with killing Americans, who are fighting with the enemy overseas. In some cases, they are leading the troops. Once an American citizen decides to fight for the enemy, and the faction of Islam we are at war with, is an army, they lose their constitutional rights. Change the date to 1943 and an American is leading the charge in Europe with the Nazis.
Some folks are worried that this decision may lead to the government using drone attacks to kill Americans on US soil. Who needs a drone? The already did this at Ruby Ridge and Waco! As for the ACLU disagreeing with Obammy? The ACLU loves Islam more than the president, or the US.
Yup, ice in Hades,and pigs flying, I agree with this part of the policy.
A government drone flying over American soil? Is this the America my family fought for in W.W.I.I? Around 10:15am this morning, me and a buddy were on a break, when we heard a unfimiliar sound in the sky. It is not uncommon to hear jets, prop planes, or helicopters passing over this time of day, but this sound was different. I will not go into the “how” we saw this thing, but I will tell you that unless there was a midget who could fly by instruments only, this thing was un-manned.
It is impossible that we are the only two who heard, or saw this craft. So I am going to monitor the local press outlets, and make a call to the local paper. We were able to snap a phone photo of it, but not too sure if I can enlarge it enough to make a positive identification of it. Don’t believe Americans are in danger from our government? Hope and change? How’s it working for ya peace-loving hypocritical liberals?
Brutal, brutal, brutal is about all I can say about ny eight hours of attendance of Job Steward training. Let me start by saying that everyone I had contact with was pleasant, and cordial. This applies to the presenters too. The day started off with all of us introducing ourselves and giving a “fun” fact. Most folks spoke about kids, or grandkids. I was the only one who referred to my educational background. Of course, I do everything in the “union setting” for a reason. My reason for this? To let fellow members know we just might have a variety of backgrounds amongst our membership, and this might lead to different views on subjects. Of course, I have learned that the CSEA’s leadership, at all levels, are not open to this. I hear so much about getting our “voices” heard, but only if it is an approved voice.
During the entire eight hours, I never asked a question, nor made a comment on any of the subject matter. I had many opportunities to point out the hypocritical nature of the “approved” message of the CSEA. Like how raising taxes takes money out of our pockets, or how government mandated health care raises the cost of the service. One of the presenters was elated by the fact that prop 30 passed, but never mentioned the fact that changes to the Way California spends money like a drunken sailor have not been addressed. Or how the CSEA continues to endorse the same drunken liberal sailor politicians.
It will be interesting to see what will happen if I pursue the Fully Jacketed Job Steward title. Apparently, I will have to partake in political activities that I am opposed to. The question is: Do I bite the bullet and do it and then speak my conservative views? Thus making me a hypocrite, like so many of the CSEA’s leadership are.
Time will tell. For conservatives such as myself, being a member is equal to being a pilgrim in an un-holy land.
This is so simple it almost hurts. Barry won’t say that the majority of shooting deaths in America are gang related. He won’t mention the statistical characteristics of the shooters, unless they are white. He won’t make a connection between the Colorado and Connecticut shooters and the medication they had been taking. He won’t mention that all the children he is surrounding himself with are just steps away from semi-automatic and fully automatic weapons. He won’t say that his children attend a fully secure, and armed school. No mention that crime rates drop when private citizens are allowed to carry firearms. He won’t utter a word about Fast and Furious and how the program armed foreign gangs that resulted in Americans being murdered. He will keep silent the fact that hand guns are the weapon of choice for criminals. He won’t explain the difference between the terms “assault Rifle” and assault Weapons.” He won’t mention the thousand of cases where people used their legally owned fire arms to successfully protect their families and properties.
OK, like I said, it is just too easy to slap down Barack. His puppet masters love the fact that the American people are too busy trying to hold on to their second Amendment right not to see the real crimes being committed: The complete governmental take over of America’s most financially rich businesses. Health,banking, and auto ring a bell? And I loved the AIG commercial thanking the American people for the “LOAN”! It was not a loan jackasses, it was thievery!
I always like the above title for my post when I am having an ADHD moment. I think my massive intake of news leads to these episodes. I have so many topics to discuss, but seeing that I am not medicated for this natural condition, I have no choice other than to put my thoughts down in no particular order, and most likely with not much grammatical skill! Then again, I am a Hillbilly at heart.
Gun control? When was the last time you saw a roving band of marauding guns in the streets attacking folks? Unless it was attached to a tattooed arm. Maybe we need arm control?
Fiscal Cliff; is this a country rock band or just smoke being blown up our chute so we don’t notice that the F.I.C.A. tax break has expired, and there is an extra eighty bucks missing from our pay checks? Or that our employer had to raise the amount of money taken from our wage to cover the increased cost of our health insurance?
When was the last time Nanny Pelosi blinked? Her facial skin is pulled so tight that she received a butt lift at the same time.
Obama has 19 executive orders lined up targeting our 2nd amendment rights: Maybe a limit on the executive order clip should be one? We can call it the Barney Fife rule.
Why is there no outrage over the fact that the last few maniac shooters are white, and heavily medicated? Imagine the screeching we would hear from the left if they were non-white and heavily medicated? That’s right, Planned Parenthood avoids a lot of that mess.
Hollywuss millionaires and billionaires squaking over America’s violent culture. Shut up and put a Quinton Terribletino flick on, pass me smoke crank, and S.T.F.U. while I watch Jamie Foxx off whitey.
Practice Political Darwinism and drop George Clooney of in Cleveland without a gun. Then Drop Ted Nugent in East L.A. Whose your dime bet on?
Is it just me, or does Michey Obama’s head look like a sunflower?
Would Barry let his kids go to a “Gun Free Zone” School?
Why not much more than a peep out of the media about the off duty female officer who shot a dude just outside of a theater in Texas who was armed with a side arm? Strong females scare them I guess.
Why is Lance Armstrong apologizing about his drug use on Opra’s network? Come on man, NUT UP! Just once.
I guess the squirrels will be leaving Lance alone.
Well, I came up thirteen votes shy of victory. But I feel as though I did not lose. We had over a 60% turnout. Folks were able to vote throughout the day, instead of the usual “after” work only time-table. I have also been offered a position with the union, from my vague understanding, gathers political information and then puts it all together in written form, that explains WHY the union’s top leadership wants folks to vote as they tell em’ to. I had to ask the lady if she realized who she was offering this to? And that she realized that I am the opposed to almost all of the CSEA’s political views.
So overall, I am pleased with my performance: I know I followed all the rules of the election, I never spoke ill of my opponent, and I did not say anything I thought people “wanted” to hear. Bottom line, I was honest.

Just a working class, empty nesting, life long Democrat disgusted with the DNC, the Democratic Party, the ‘RULZ’ Committee and the power brokers who think we should all fall in line and vote for the selectee. Country before party every time!
