Sarah Palin Jokes About Having Secret Service Shoot Fish And Game Commissioner

By William Teach April 24, 2012 – 7:48 am

And the 90% liberal media went ballistic, as did the liberal blogs……oh, wait, sorry, I meant crazy Joe Biden said it, and the only other news outlet to cover it other than conservative leaning CNS News is CNN, which didn’t seem to find anything wrong with what Joe said

(CNN) After his tour via airboat, the vice president took to a podium before a small audience, and used a joke to explain that it was his first time touring the Everglades.

“I know Ronnie Bergeron is here,” Biden said, referring to well known Everglades advocate and Florida businessman Ron Bergeron. “He tried to get me out there about 10 years ago. But he didn’t want me to go see it. He wanted me to wrestle alligators. Y’all think I’m kidding. I’m not kidding. He’s one crazy son of a gun.”

As the audience laughed, Biden continued his joke.

“You see this man right here? My Secret Service guy?” the vice president asked, referring to an agent just off stage.

“He said that if I go, he’ll shoot you, Ronnie. I’m only kidding. That’s not true. He didn’t say he’d shoot Ronnie. He said he’d shoot the alligator if I went.”

Ha ha ha, laugh riot. Now, substitute Palin, Romney, or any other Republican name in there, and consider the massive liberal freakout. Of course, those of us in Reality Land, otherwise known as Conservatives, understand it was a joke, one similar to something we’ve potentially said to people we know many times…..oh, you don’t make jokes about shooting your friends? Hmph.

Fortunately, Joe was there to make a speech “highlighting the environmental, economical and ecological benefits of the Everglades”. Well, good thing alligators aren’t a threatened species or something.

Again, we understand it’s a joke. A poor taste joke, but, a joke. This episode of Joe Eats His Foot highlights the partisanship of the media, who would vilify and crucify any Republican who said something similar.

Emperor Obama Doesn’t Like You Using His Seashore

By William Teach April 23, 2012 – 3:02 pm

The strong arm of government tyranny strikes again

(Human Events) Planning a vacation this summer to Miami’s Biscayne Bay for a little fishing?

Think again, because the National Park Service wants to set aside a large swath of the pristine area as a marine reserve zone, so you might have to leave the fishing poles at home. And the boat.

Perhaps horseback riding is more your speed and the family plans to ride through California’s Sequoia or Kings Canyon National Parks? Sorry, but all of the permits were pulled for those activities this summer.

Or maybe you just want to lounge on the soft sands of North Carolina’s Outer Banks and read a novel, fly a kite with the kids, toss a Frisbee to the dog, and watch dad catch some fish? No, no, no and no.

The extrem-enviros have sued and lobbied the Central Government, ruining it for everyone. Unshockingly, this has caused lost revenue by local businesses as well as layoffs. This will affect tourism.

“The federal government needs to remember that Cape Hatteras was established to be a recreational area for the American people,” (Walter B.) Jones (R-NC) said. “But taxpayers can’t recreate without access to the beach. The goal of management ought to be a balanced approach between visitor access and species protection.”

Obama and his extremists don’t care. Well, at least till they are restricted from using these areas. Make sure to read the whole article.

Who’s Up For The Green Police?

By William Teach April 23, 2012 – 10:46 am

They aren’t living in my head. Here’s one from a couple days ago, via Climate Depot

(The Constitution Club) Sleep well tonight, America. The ever-vigilant Obama Regime stands at red alert in its unflinching effort to protect you, your loved ones and life as you know it. From “climate change” and “melting Arctic ice.” Uh huh. The epic battle is on – and O’s Army is all over it – just like Dennis Quaid in The Day After Tomorrow. Where would our nation be were it not for Barack Hussein Obama’s extraordinary aptitude for keeping his priorities straight? Other countries should be so fortunate.

Not a minute too soon, the Department of Homeland Security has announced that it is creating “environmental justice” units that will be empowered to oversee regulations in conjunction with local governments throughout the country. The framework for the Environmental Justice Working Group includes eleven federal government agencies, including the TSA, the Secret Service and FEMA. Go big or go home, right?

In its just-released Environmental Justice Strategy document, the DHS says the idea is to “include environmental justice practices in our larger mission efforts involving federal law enforcement and emergency response activities” and to incorporate environmental justice in “securing the homeland.” Roll that around in your head for awhile:

“Federal law enforcement” agents conducting “emergency response activities” in the name of “environmental justice” for the purpose of “securing the homeland.” The Green Police. Oh. My. God.

Lest you think these people are crazy as a loon, (which they are), here’s the official explanation from the Regime:

Our nation’s vision of homeland security is a homeland that is safe and secure, resilient against terrorism and other hazards – where American interests and aspirations, and the American way of life can thrive. In seeking to fulfill this vision, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) aspires to avoid burdening minority and low-income populations with a disproportionate share of any adverse human health or environmental risks associated with our efforts to secure the nation.

Yet another reason to vote out this disgrace of a POTUS this November.

And over in Europe, No Tricks Zone points out they plan to launch a satellite to “hunt down climate violators.”

Good News: Obama To Act More Like A Dictator

By William Teach April 23, 2012 – 7:40 am

Obama has fully embraced the use of executive powers, and the NY Times works hard to say “yes, this is A-OK”. One has to wonder how they would react if it was a Republican president

One Saturday last fall, President Obama interrupted a White House strategy meeting to raise an issue not on the agenda. He declared, aides recalled, that the administration needed to more aggressively use executive power to govern in the face of Congressional obstructionism.

Yeah, it’s hard to ruin the country and act like Hugo Chavez when those damned Americans decided to provide a historic beatdown of the Party that controls the House because it was ruining America.

“We had been attempting to highlight the inability of Congress to do anything,” recalled William M. Daley, who was the White House chief of staff at the time. “The president expressed frustration, saying we have got to scour everything and push the envelope in finding things we can do on our own.”

For Mr. Obama, that meeting was a turning point. As a senator and presidential candidate, he had criticized George W. Bush for flouting the role of Congress. And during his first two years in the White House, when Democrats controlled Congress, Mr. Obama largely worked through the legislative process to achieve his domestic policy goals.

But increasingly in recent months, the administration has been seeking ways to act without Congress. Branding its unilateral efforts “We Can’t Wait,” a slogan that aides said Mr. Obama coined at that strategy meeting, the White House has rolled out dozens of new policies — on creating jobs for veterans, preventing drug shortages, raising fuel economy standards, curbing domestic violence and more.

Except, he isn’t creating jobs for veterans, or anyone else for that matter. He’s not preventing drug shortages, curbing domestic violence, “or more”. He did raise fuel economy standards, which will make motor vehicles more expense and less safe. Good job, PBO!

Each time, Mr. Obama has emphasized the fact that he is bypassing lawmakers. When he announced a cut in refinancing fees for federally insured mortgages last month, for example, he said: “If Congress refuses to act, I’ve said that I’ll continue to do everything in my power to act without them.”

Of course, it would be nice if Obama would actually consult with the duly elected representatives of the American People. Perhaps offer up some legislation for Congress to take up. Yet, he doesn’t even send anything over to the Democrat controlled Senate….well, except for his budget proposals, which were unanimously voted down last year and not even brought to the Senate floor this year by the same Democrats.

The rest of the article is simply an attempt to provide political cover for Obama, when the Times would be tearing into a Republican. But, we all know that being the POTUS is hard work, especially when one has no leadership, nor management, skills. It’s one thing to whip up a bunch of left wing folks into a frenzy as a “community organizer”, something quite different having to deal with elected representatives who are (supposedly) responsible to the people who elected them within a Constitutional Republic framework.

Obamanomics: 50% Of New College Grads Unemployed/Underemployed

By William Teach April 23, 2012 – 6:49 am

How’s that HopeyChangey crappola working for ya?

(AP) The college class of 2012 is in for a rude welcome to the world of work.

A weak labor market already has left half of young college graduates either jobless or underemployed in positions that don’t fully use their skills and knowledge.

Young adults with bachelor’s degrees are increasingly scraping by in lower-wage jobs — waiter or waitress, bartender, retail clerk or receptionist, for example — and that’s confounding their hopes a degree would pay off despite higher tuition and mounting student loans.

An analysis of government data conducted for The Associated Press lays bare the highly uneven prospects for holders of bachelor’s degrees. (snip)

About 1.5 million, or 53.6 percent, of bachelor’s degree-holders under the age of 25 last year were jobless or underemployed, the highest share in at least 11 years. In 2000, the share was at a low of 41 percent, before the dot-com bust erased job gains for college graduates in the telecommunications and IT fields.

There is simply way too much contained within the article to excerpt, but, suffice to say, those who have graduated over the past few years are learning the extent of pure miserable failure they voted for in 2008, and that miserable failure has rebounded straight back. The guy they thought was the Lightbringer, the Messiah, The One, told them what their college activist ears wanted to hear, but they never took the time to transition from “fired up and involved” to “hey, would his policies actually work?”

One more thing to point out

On the other end of the scale, the southern U.S., anchored by Texas, was most likely to have young college graduates in higher-skill jobs.

Hmm, so, places that tend to be good Red states work best. Make sure to read the whole thing, which should, of course, be blamed on Bush. Or Palin. The TEA Party. ATMs. China. Tsunamis. But not Obama.

Flashback: Most Narcissistic President Ever Declares April 22nd Earth Day

By William Teach April 22, 2012 – 2:14 pm

The man is beyond belief. Via IBD, comes Obama’s proclamation. We’ll skip the self serving garbage, and get to

NOW, THEREFORE, I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim April 22, 2011, as Earth Day.  I encourage all Americans to participate in service programs and activities that will protect our environment and contribute to a prosperous, healthy, and sustainable future.

Seriously? Did he actually take credit for Earth Day? For making it “official”? He even notes it has been around for 42 years (43 this year). From Wikipedia

The genesis of Earth Day is credited to Gaylord Nelson, then a U.S. Senator from Wisconsin, after witnessing the ravages of the 1969 massive oil spill in Santa Barbara, California. Inspired by the student anti-war movement, he called for an environmental teach-in, or Earth Day, to be held on April 22, 1970. Over 20 million people participated that year, and this Earth Day is now observed on April 22 each year by more than 500 million people and several national governments in 175 countries.[citation needed] Numerous communities celebrate Earth Week, an entire week of activities focused on environmental issues.

In Obama World, it can’t be official till He Chimes In.

Oh, and the typical unhinged enviroweenies are calling for “population stabilization.”

BTW, here’s Obama Green Fail

Sorta Blogless Sunday Pinup-Don’t Eat The Dogs Edition

By William Teach April 22, 2012 – 9:17 am

Happy Sunday! It’s another great day in America, but, hide your dogs, North Carolina, Iowa, and Colorado, Obama is heading your way this coming week! This pinup is by Gil Elvgren, with a wee bit of help from some very pensive dogs who don’t want to be eaten

What is happening in Ye Olde Blogosphere? The Fine 15 (not everyone gets a dog bonus: that kind of meme can be a pain in the behind to write)

  1. Wake Up America points out that the Democrat dogs are abandoning Obama
  2. Watts Up With That? asks you to connect the dots
  3. Steven Goddard is not dead
  4. The POH Diaries offers up unhinged lefty art
  5. Smitty (The Other McCain) fisks another BHO weekly screed
  6. The Lonely Conservative tells us how socialism is working in Venezuala. At least they’re not eating dogs
  7. The First Street Journal wonders about political prisoners in the US
  8. American Power opines on dog eating and the lamestream media
  9. Scared Monkeys highlights a real hate crime
  10. Republican Redefined shows what a dog would look like if it was the dog Obama ate
  11. Raised on Hoecakes lists Obama’s accomplishments
  12. Political Clown Parade has Obama being boo’d
  13. Karl (Patterico) says Politifact has gone to the dogs
  14. Maggie’s Notebook shows how Occupy chose to remember the Holocaust (adding the link is helpful)
  15. And last, but not least, House of Eratosthenes makes up a new word, phrase, red dot science. Consider it stolen, MK.

As always, the full set of pinups can be seen in the Patriotic Pinup category, or over at my Gallery page. While we are on pinups, since it is that time of year, have you gotten your “Pinups for Vets” calendar yet? And don’t forget to check out what I declare to be our War on Women Rule 5 and linky luv posts

Anyone else have a link or hotty-fest going on? Let me know so I can add you to the list. (BTW, since someone asked, the reason I leave links for the previous week up (or you might see a *) is because they are place holders for later in the day or for next weeks. Easier than rewriting all the time. Also, the listing order has to do with how they are added over time, not how good a post is. I just copy and paste from the previous week, then edit. If you see one of the *’s, go ahead and check out the blog anyhow, see if there is an update. I cannot update with my Android during the day.

The posts do take a long time, so, if you want to send me your links for Rule 5 babeage or links, use ye olde email in the header bar (remove the NOSPAM part). Preferably, create the html link so I can copy and paste how you want it to read.

Washington Post: Toss The All Volunteer Military

By William Teach April 22, 2012 – 8:33 am

Welcome to Ãœber Liberal World!

(Washington Post) Our lives are cluttered with unnecessary traditions, ideas and institutions. Warm weather came early this year, but there’s still time for a good spring cleaning. After purging old receipts, broken appliances and unloved outfits, what else should we toss? Outlook asked 10 writers what they thought we’d be better off without. From the Cabinet to premium gas to chick flicks, here are their picks.

1. All-volunteer military by Thomas E. Ricks
2. Premium gas by Jeff S. Bartlett
3. Home equity loans by Bethany McLean
4. 3 p.m. school day by Peter Orszag
5. Chick flicks by Melissa Silverstein
6. The Cabinet by Dana Milbank
7. Software patents by Christina Mulligan
8. The social kiss by Meghan Daum
9. Brainstorming by Jonah Lehrer
10. Grades by Melissa Harris-Perry

The above link goes to #1 on the list, the all-volunteer military, with links to the other 9 embedded at the beginning of the story

Since the end of the military draft in 1973, every person joining the U.S. armed forces has done so because he or she asked to be there. Over the past decade, this all-volunteer force has been put to the test and has succeeded, fighting two sustained foreign wars with troops standing up to multiple combat deployments and extreme stress.

This is precisely the reason it is time to get rid of the all-volunteer force. It has been too successful. Our relatively small and highly adept military has made it all too easy for our nation to go to war — and to ignore the consequences.

So, our military is just to darned good, so let’s do away with volunteering and go to a draft?

We had a draft in the 1960s, of course, and it did not stop President Lyndon Johnson from getting into a ground war in Vietnam. But the draft sure did encourage people to pay attention to the war and decide whether they were willing to support it.

Hmm, so even with a draft, LBJ was still rather adventuresome? Then what’s the point? “...reestablishing a draft, with all its Vietnam-era connotations, would cause problems for the military…” Ah. There’s the point. Ruining the best fighting force on the planet, bringing America down off our perch.

As for the others

2. Premium gas by Jeff S. Bartlett (so what if you’re engine can be damaged? You shouldn’t be driving that type of super evil Gaia killing vehicle)
3. Home equity loans by Bethany McLean (actually makes a good point about home owners loading up on debt)
4. 3 p.m. school day by Peter Orszag (makes some good points in keeping school open till 5 or 6pm, but, I think we all know the idea is to provide more indoctrination time for kids. Of course, what of those who play sports, have groups to attend, or work?)
5. Chick flicks by Melissa Silverstein (yes, please!)
6. The Cabinet by Dana Milbank (Milbank makes a few good points on this one, which is the presidential cabinet. Another one would be to get rid of all the unelected and unaccountable czars)
7. Software patents by Christina Mulligan (people are mean for daring to patent their work, oh, and it’s hard to enforce them, so…)
8. The social kiss by Meghan Daum (because we might….gulp….graze lips. Cooties!)
9. Brainstorming by Jonah Lehrer (some good points)
10. Grades by Melissa Harris-Perry (this one deserves a post of its own. It’s about as whiny from a left wing teachers POV as it can get)

I’d get rid of:

  1. Science that doesn’t follow the scientific method
  2. Science that is based on political advocacy
  3. Warmists that don’t live the life they say everyone else should live. I suggest they be drafted into the Peace Corps and dropped in some Third World shit hole, er, developing nation, to see how they live
  4. The permanent political aristrocracy – we need term limits. Which would also eliminate
  5. The neverending campaigns
  6. Voting rights for people who are too unknowledgable to vote

I could surely come up with some more, however, what are your ideas?
