Angry white men


Ummm. Red meat!

Read it all and enjoy!


Aspen Times News for Aspen Colorado - Aspen Times Weekly Opinion: "The Angry White Man comes from all economic backgrounds, from dirt-poor to filthy rich. He represents all geographic areas in America, from urban sophisticate to rural redneck, deep South to mountain West, left Coast to Eastern Seaboard.
His common traits are that he isn’t looking for anything from anyone — just the promise to be able to make his own way on a level playing field. In many cases, he is an independent businessman and employs several people. He pays more than his share of taxes and works hard."

The victimhood syndrome buzzwords — “disenfranchised,” “marginalized” and “voiceless” — don’t resonate with him. “Press ‘one’ for English” is a curse-word to him. He’s used to picking up the tab, whether it’s the company Christmas party, three sets of braces, three college educations or a beautiful wedding.

To hear the Lou Dobbses and Bill O'Reillys of the world--not to mention politicians ranging from Ron Paul to Hillary Clinton--the middle class of America (however you define that term) has never had it so tough.

In "Living Large," Drew Carey and reason.tv examine the plight of the American middle class. What do they find? Click below to find out.

It gets worse.

The Volokh Conspiracy - -#1203383023#1203383023#1203383023: "Obama is proposing to make it a felony for a gun owner whose firearm was stolen from his residence which causes harm to another person if that weapon was not securely stored in that home. [!!!]"

This doesn't sound good.


Weblog Politics Blog: "Reuters now has a report from The Financial Times explaining that banks have quietly borrowed roughly $50 billion from the Federal Reserve the past few weeks."

If "change" is so popular among the Clinton/B Hussein crowd, why is climate change so unpopular?

Terrorists cutting telecom cables?

Weren't we "assured" that this was not possible?

Saboteurs may have cut Mideast telecom cables: UN agency: "There has been speculation that the sheer number of cables being cut over such a short period was too much of a coincidence and that sabotage must have been involved"

Parents fighting back!

When Is Participating "Not Participating?"



It's gotta be tough to be a democrat.

So many new definitions of words, every day!


When Is Participating "Not Participating?" - TalkLeft: The Politics Of Crime: "Hillary Clinton and Obama each spent about $130,000 in Michigan while Obama spent $1.3 million in Florida--more than any other Democratic candidate and more than eight Republican candidates, who were eligible to win delegates from the state."

I just saw on TV McCain standing next to Romney...


... sure Mitt is taller than Johnny McC but why the heck is Mitt's head about twice the size of McCain's?

Beef recall hysteria infects Grand Rapids school Board


Zombies on the GR BOE do what Zombies always do....
Beef recall hits Grand Rapids schools - Michigan Food Stories, Recipes and Reviews - MLive.com: "Officials said it was the largest beef recall in the United States, surpassing a 1999 ban of 35 million pounds of ready-to-eat meats. No illnesses have been linked to the newly recalled meat, and officials said the health threat was likely small."

In a freezer at the Grand Rapids Public Schools food service facility sits 20,000-pounds of hamburger that will never rest between a bun.
The meat, purchased by the district through a contract with the federal government, is part of a recall of meat by a California meat packer being investigated for abusing its cattle.

Deer dinner tonight!


Amazing what a 40# bag of corn will do.

Just who IS teaching our kids?


Again, the kids aren't even part of the equation.
Teachers 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc.........

Schools cut secret deals with abusive teachers - OregonLive.com: "It would take months for the agency that licenses Oregon teachers to discipline a Salem-area teacher for inappropriately touching at least eight girls.
To get Kenneth John Cushing, then 44, away from Claggett Creek Middle School students immediately, administrators cut him a deal: If Cushing resigned, they would conceal his alleged conduct -- clutching students' waists, touching their buttocks and massaging their shoulders -- from the public.
Cushing signed the pact ... with Salem-Keizer Public Schools in 2004, and officials promised not to reveal the teacher's behavior if potential employers called looking for a reference. They would attribute his departure to 'personal reasons,' the document reads, and make 'no reference to this agreement.'"

Democrat politicians ALWAYS fire cops and cut our military


Lansing State Journal: Short-staffed state police see cases pile up: "The accident occurred in May. Police believe Russell Dunham was drunk and speeding in an Eaton County accident that killed two people.
Dunham was charged in August, but prosecutors didn't get word of the DNA test results on an air bag until late last month - eight months after the accident and barely a week before the case was scheduled for trial."

Blu-ray wins! HD DVD is the new Beta.... bummer dude...


Where are the Congressional hearings?

Never mind.
"Sony's Blu-ray technology is emerging as the likely winner in the format battle for the next generation of DVD players after Toshiba appeared ready to ditch its HD DVD business."

These people really are nuts


Olbermann Accuses 'Fascist' Bush of Engaging in 'Terrorism' "Calling the President a 'liar' who was 'slinging crap' and using 'a form of terrorism against his own people' to gain support, Olbermann accused President Bush of fascism: 'If you believe in the seamless mutuality of government and big business, come out and say it! There is a dictionary definition, one word that describes that toxic blend. You're a fascist! Get them to print you a T-shirt with fascist on it! What else is this but fascism?'"

Democrat leaders allied with terrorists! For money?




This is as bad as it gets.
Democrat leaders side with terrorists because their class action lawyer contributors bought the votes.
This is sick......

Robert D. Novak - Why Torts Trumped Terrorism - washingtonpost.com: "The true reason for blocking the bill was Senate-passed retroactive immunity to protect from lawsuits private telecommunications firms asked to eavesdrop by the government. The nation's torts bar, vigorously pursuing such suits, has spent months lobbying hard against immunity."
Of the 29 Democratic senators who voted against the FISA bill last Tuesday, 24 took money from the trial lawyers (as did two absent senators, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama).
