A new addition to the BlogRoll
Saw this link over on MArooned, and thought I would take a peek….
Oh my! A Liberal blogger who’s friends think she has gone all Conservative on them because she’s a gunnie?
But it gets better…
She’s a Sci-Fi fan, and an RPG Tabletop fan as well! (For the uninformed, RPG is Role Playng Games, the grandaddy of which was that EVIL Dungeons and Dragons that was going to make us all into Satanic, blood-drinking, chicken-sacrificing devil worshippers.)
So my question for Laura is…which games, in which genre?
Yeah, I like the things too…at a RPG convention a few years back in New Jersey, I picked up a cool, hysterically funny RPG that is great at parties (especially in front of panty-soiling Brady Bunchers) called Cash-n-Guns. Google it up. Hysterical funny and great at parties!
There’s also a tabletop RPG (based on the D-20 system) called Mafia, which comes out of a small press in Southern New Jersey.
Then there are the classics like TSR’s D&D, White Wolf Studios Vampire, Mage, and Werewolf, and GURPS by SJG out of Austin Tx.
Damn….now I wanna be lazy, call up some friends, and just spend the week-end doing tabletop….

You just can’t make this shit up….
Headline for Saturday, March 6 2010….
I’m not kidding…a SIX YEAR OLD was suspended for making the shape of a gun with his hand, pointing at someone, and going “POW! POW!”
Jesus H. Christ…don’t these teachers have anything better to do than to suspend a six year old for….BEING A SIX YEAR OLD!
My God….I can remember playing Cops and Robbers when I was a kid. Cowboys and Indians. We pointed fingers at each other all day long and yelled “POW! POW!”. To be honest, we would play out a two minute bank heist, then argue for at least 30 minutes about the important intricacies of the scene, like who shot who first, and who should be playing dead.
This PC bullshit has got to stop, along with the zero tolerance crap. Kids play. Kids will be kids. My kids actually go out to play with other kids, and they point their fingers at each other and yell “POW! POW!” and believe it or not, NO ONE HAS SUFFERED A GUNSHOT WOUND!
These teachers are complete utter idiots. Someone should suspend THEM for being assholes and insanely stupid.

Sad state of New York State…
So, I’m at home, and the phone rings.
Its a local number that I don’t recognize, so I let it go to voicemail.
Listen to the message a few minutes later, and its the County Clerks office, pistol permit division. Seems that they have my license ready to be picked up, and they want to know if I still want it.
I then pull out my wallet, retrieve my PISTOL LICENSE from said wallet, and look at it. I listen again to the message, get the phone number, and call the pistol permitting office.
Speak to a very nice lady there, who wants to know if I still am looking to get a pistol license. I tell her I already *have* the license in my hand, issued by her office, and that the license has two guns listed on it.
She pauses, asks for my surname again, then looks it up in the computer. She finds it, then asks about the two guns on it. I give her the information, and I can hear her flipping through paperwork. She announces that she has the paperwork for one of them, but not the other one.
I ask her if the second one, which is listed on my license, a license which was issued by their office, is in their computer records. She says yes, then says that there is no paperwork for it.
I ask her how it got onto my license without paperwork, and she says that it can’t…I have to submit paperwork, and the office has to print out a new license with the information for the gun.
Seeing that I have the license in my hand, issued by them with both my handguns listed, I ask her where the paperwork is. She said there isn’t any, and I need to submit it. I ask her again about the gun being listed on the license, and if it could be placed there without proper paperwork from me…she says its there, it cannot get there without paperwork…then states again that there is no paperwork for it.
Dontcha love bureaucracy?
I got tired of *that* game rather quickly, then asked her if there was a problem. In so many words, she indicated that without paperwork, the gun wasn’t legal.
She admitted that I couldn’t have a county-issued license without having first submitted the proper paperwork.
That being said, without the paperwork in the physical file folder, the license isn’t valid.
Doesn’t matter that they can’t find the paperwork that I gave them…its MY PROBLEM to get the proper paperwork in.
I let her know that I have a copy of the paperwork, and that I would be happy to bring it down to them. I figured this was a CYA call from them because if THEY don’t have the proper paperwork (ie: they lost the shit) then someone at that office was gonna get their arse reamed big time.
She thanked me profusely (which proved my theory that it was a CYA call) and even offered to give me a sooper-secrit fax number so as to save me the trip, but I declined as I really want to see the look on their faces when I give them the paperwork…
And they say we need more gun control laws…
I disagree…we need competent civil servants….

James Pinkerton…Democrat Hack, or Clueless Drone?
You decide…here is an article (read it here) that appeared on FoxNews.com, by one James Pinkerton. With my *reading between the lines* commentary…
President Obama is on a little bit of a roll. Call it “mini-mo.” And now the latest news from Bully Pulpit Central: Obama is inviting his good friends the Congressional Republicans, as well as Congressional Democrats, to meet with him at the White House on February 25 to talk about health care policy.
You can hear the saliva dripping from this yutz…he’s got this idea that *now the Republicans will have to put up or shut up*…and he may be right, that those Republicans who are Centrists, Liberal, or just RINO, will be sticking their finger into the political wind, and tailoring their support/opposition to ObambiCare to best win re-election in November…
What this moron doesn’t get, is that there is a CONSERVATIVE tide swelling…and its going to leave both Dems and Repubs out in the cold in November, because the populace has seen firsthand what happens when you let Libs and Socialists run things…
As a blogger for the The Washington Post headlined his piece, “Obama calls the next play for health-care reform.” OK, some might say, that’s just typical mainstream media cheerleading for the O-team, but recent events show that Obama is reclaiming the initiative. Indeed, we can identify four reasons why the 44th president has had a pretty good couple of weeks.
OK…pay attention here folks…this blowhard really is an OBambi hack.
First, the State of the Union address on January 27. The big news from that speech was Obama’s “spending freeze,” which was widely ridiculed as more symbolic than substantive.
It IS symbolic. The Big O got his ass handed to him in VA and NJ with the governorships, and MA with the loss of his supermajority in the Senate…
But even so, the freeze demonstrated that Obama has at least some independence from Congressional Democrats. And so we can see at least the glimmers of Bill Clinton-style “triangulation.” And Clinton, of course, was a two-termer.
Bill Clinton Triangulation? The Magic Messiah is singing this tune because he thinks he can sway one of the Repubs to his side, and still ram through what THE AMERICAN PEOPLE have said, over and over, that THEY DON’T WANT! This isn’t *triangulation*…this is panic from a fucking idiot in the Oval Office being in way above his head, and grasping at *anything* so as to not go down in history as a worse president than Jimmy Peanut.
Second, the very next day, the 28th, Obama traveled to Baltimore for his televised Q-and-A with House Republicans. It’s safe to say that the GOP-ers were not overly impressed by their visitor, but they weren’t the intended audience; the American people, watching it live on TV, were the true target. And the folks at home saw Obama at his best: cool, calm, and collected, defending his positions in a high-pressure situation.
No…the American Idiots who voted for this yambag were the intended audience, and they bought into the *cool calm collected* thing. Those of us who know that the Pres is an idiot saw through it, and we saw a weak man trying to salvage something so as to save himself from becoming a poster child for *Dismal Presidential Failure*….
And he didn’t need a TelePrompter. So all of those who have been saying that he can’t open his mouth without a TelePrompter were proven wrong. He does just fine without one–and he would, in fact, be better off if he used it less.
No, he exposes himself as nothing but a Saul Aulinsky Socialist when he doesn’t use one…and the American People see him as that even more when he doesn’t use the teleprompter. But I agree that he should use them less…it’ll hasten his demise into the annals of history as a total fucking failure.
The third reason is the decline in the unemployment rate. Yes, yes, it fell to “only” 9.7 percent–a figure that would have the MSM talking about “depression” if the president were a Republican. Indeed, overall employment continued to fall, too, and so there’s reason to think that we could be in a “jobless recovery”–if, in fact, we have a recovery at all.
And this Pinkerton Numbnut can’t do his own due diligence…the reason it fell to 9.7, is because the stats don’t count those who are out of work AND HAVE GIVEN UP LOOKING FOR WORK! When you count *those* people who have just given up hope of work under this Socialist Putz, its 17.4%
The fourth factor is something that Obama had nothing to do with. It was the decision of a leading House Republican, Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, to release a strongly conservative budget plan, calling for deep cuts in spending, including the partial privatization of Social Security and the voucherization of Medicare. Maybe we need those deep cuts in spending, but for sure, those cuts are not popular with middle-of-the-road voters.
They may not be *popular*, but after the ObaMessiah put us so far into debt that we would be lucky to see daylight in the next 5 years even if we had 90% of our wages confiscated by this tyrannical Congress, the cuts are now NECESSARY! The goobermint has spent like drunken sailors, they have no money, the poeple are taxed to the point where *they* have no more money…so how can the socialist programs keep being funded, you moron?
Congressional Democrats, seeing their own chance to get back on offense, immediately pounced on the Ryan plan, even thought it was not an official product of the House Republican leadership. As of Friday, the Democratic leadership, smelling political blood, was scheming to force a House vote on Ryan’s proposal. That would be a tough vote for most Republicans: Do they side with Ryan and the limited-government tea-partiers? Or with senior citizens and centrists?
Wow…Pinkerton just hates the fact that there are Americans who want LIMITED GOOBERMINT! Imagine that! A Goobermint that respects LIBERTY and FREEDOM, stops giving money to lazy, inbred, illegal fucks, or lazy, inbred, LEGAL fucks, tells them to get off their lazy asses and get a job (yes, even if its at Mickey D’s…) because the Gravy Train ran out of coal, and has been taken out of service.
Republicans with long memories will recall that the GOP has been down this particular road before. Back in 1995, another bunch of Republican insurgents had much the same idea: Cut Medicare. And another Democratic president, Bill Clinton, picked a fight with the GOP–and won. So now, with Ryan, are Republicans repeating that unhappy history? Most Republicans on Capitol Hill are looking forward to whacking Democrats this year; they are not looking forward to whacking popular programs for the elderly.
If those *elderly* were too concerned during their working years with keeping up with the Joneses, instead of tightening up their belts, living frugally, saving and properly investing their money for their own retirement future, then they deserve to be cut off from the public dole. The survival of he country, and of their own grandkids ad great-grandkids, is at stake. How selfish can they be to want to saddle their progenies with massive debt just so that they can pull their Social Security checks and go play Bingo with it, and Lotto.
So now, in two-and-a-half weeks, comes Obama’s health care meeting with Congress. Obamacare has cratered, in the wake of the Scott Brown special election, and thus the White House must figure out what to do next.
Yes he has…because he is weak, and ineffectual.
There’s no way to know what will happen at that session, of course, but it’s a safe bet that there won’t be much actual negotiating on February 25. Yes, we are finally getting those C-SPAN negotiating sessions that the candidate promised during the 2008 campaign–and we will soon discover why the proposal was half-baked when Obama first cooked it up.
And this doesn’t open your eyes to the fact that he’s a Socialistic fuck, akin to Hitler and that ugly Venezuelan llama-humper who is ruining his country currently? OBambi lost his bullet-proof supermajority, and so *now* he tries to appease the unwashed masses by being transparent, in the hopes that the peasants will put pressure on Republicans? Wow…he really *IS* stupid!
But here’s another bet: Obama will do just fine later this month. As he did during the State of the Union, he will remind Republicans that since they won that 41st vote in the Senate, they, too, share the power. So, Obama will surely say, Republicans have a duty to step up and contribute to the solution.
No…the Repubs don’t want to share the power and move to the Center. They can see which way the winds are blowing, and they know that they need to bring all 41 votes to bear on stopping the Socialist Asswipe from doing any *more* damage. And if they are smart, they will do just that, and thus keep their jobs….the rest will get tossed out the window in November….
The Republicans are free to say “no,” of course. They can even say “hell, no” if they want to–although if they come across as too partisan and belligerent, they will look bad to “purple” voters. And if the Loyal Opposition is really lucky, it will get a chance to put forth a few of its own health are ideas. But make no mistake: Obama will have the home-field advantage. He will set the agenda, and he will get the last word. After all, it’s his bully pulpit.
No, you idiot…OBambiCare is dead, the American People like things just the way they are, so that means that Conservatives don’t need to *put forth ideas to fix healthcare*…healthcare isn’t broken, you twit.
Yes, there’s a long way to go between now and Election Day 2010, to say nothing of Election Day 2012. But as of now, Obama is showing a better sense of how to play the game–the key realization being that he is better off playing the outside game against Republicans, as opposed to the inside game with Democrats.
Keep dreaming, Numbnuts….
Obama even seems to realize that when he shares the spotlight with Republicans, that’s not all bad for him. If voters are mad at Washington, this is precisely the time to share the “credit,” as far and wide as possible.
I can’t wait for November…Pinkerton and his ilk will be wondering why The People have taken back their Goobermint and tossed out all the Socialists who were just trying to take care of them.
Fucking Idiot….

One more BlogRoll addition…
This one deserved its own post announcing the addition to the BlogRoll.
The author is Jewish. He blogs (if I understand it correctly) from the Holy Land.
Now…why am I including him?
Because he is Jewish. Because he doesn’t apologize for being Jewish. Because he calls it like it is, and rightly points out that Israel has been the target of a concerted campaign by the desert camel-humpers who adhere to the *Religion of Tolerance* that tolerates nothing short of the complete annihilation of the Jews, the complete annihilation and/or subjugation of *non-believers* (read: non-Muslims), etc, etc, etc…
Also, my wife is Jewish. Although her politics are center-left, she’s got a heart as big as Texas. Which at times is nice, and at times annoying as hell.
I’ve never met a group of people who are like the Jews…they understand what it is to be persecuted, they know what it is to be hunted like animals, and they know how wrong it is to wish for the systematic murder of a peoples simply because their views aren’t your views.
Give the blog a read. It deserves at least that much.
Now, I’m going to say something that will be *very* politically incorrect, bu I’m sure that the blog’s author will be able to appreciate what I’m saying here…
In the blog, there is a post which just hit home with me. Its called *The Women of the IDF*.
Thats right…the women of the Israeli Defense Forces. Now, I’ve always been of the opinion that Jewish women are some of the more visually-appealing (read: f’ing hawt!) women on the face of the planet. Not the American Jewish women…I’m talking Israeli women. They exude confidence. They exude beauty. There is something irresistible in them that I can’t put my finger on. They aren’t what I would consider wholesome in the American sense.
No….they are *whole*. They are complete.
American women, spoiled beyond all measure, could learn something about what it is to be a *woman* from the Israelites of the female persuasion.

Here it is…the final Nail in the Democrats Coffin…
If the Democrats are stupid enough to do this, then they will definitely seal their fate for the 2010 election cycle, the 2012 General Election, and the next 15 or so election cycles in the future….
From the article….
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is pushing a $300 billion “fix” to the Senate health care bill, saying that her chamber could approve the Senate’s package if those changes are made first.
Senior Democratic aides told Fox News that Pelosi has offered up the new package of changes to Senate Democratic leaders, with the hope that they will be able to pass it using a controversial procedural maneuver known as “reconciliation.” The maneuver would allow Democrats to pass the measure with just 51 votes, without having to first overcome the normal 60-vote threshold.
There you have it…the Botox Bitch, otherwise known as Nancy *Stretch* Pelosi, is pushing the idea of a political manuever called *reconciliation*, where the health care legislation is not treated as a *law*, but it is treated as a *budget item*, which then requires a simple majority in the Senate.
They do that, and they have then sealed their fates. A Progressive Political Pundit examines that very issue in this article. Worth a read, as it showcases what even a progressive thinks about the ramming down our throats of the ObaMessiah’s orgasmic discharge.
They are in a panic, folks. They are grasping at what little they can find, in the hopes of fundamentally changing the political landscape and creating a a new entitlement with which to subjugate the populace.
Thats not what Freedom and Liberty is about. These fuckers are going to push and push, then stare in wide-eyed disbelief when the citizens of this great nation push back.
Hopefully it will be a peaceful push-back. But I’m not holding out hope there…the Democrats are poking a sleeping lion with a very pointy stick, and that lion is getting *real* annoyed. There are more guns in the hands of citizens than there are in the hands of idiot politicians. All it takes is one small spark, and the USA as we know it could go up in flames….
Lets hope that the politicians on both sides of the aisle can take proper heed of the political winds that are blowing, and chart a course that follows the intent of the Founding Fathers. Lets hope they take a step back, quietly let this debacle of a bill die a slow and painful death, and decide to let the free markets, and the People, direct the course of this Great Nation.
