While browsing the net...

I found some good stuff today at The Hill, TheHill.com, which basically showcases the DC nutters in one spot.  Lots of good reading there, and you find out what the roaches are trying to do when they scuttle about in the dark.

I came across this short piece by Armstrong Williams, titled, The Intolerant Far Left, quite truthful:


The far-left liberals in our society claim to have the best interest of everyone in mind, and yet they are the least tolerant of anyone who disagrees with them.

They are the first to hurl unsavory epithets at those who challenge their belief system. Many conservatives on the other hand are much more open to alternative views without demonizing those who oppose them.

This degree of intolerance is accentuated in the liberal African-American community, where anyone who has conservative views are considered an Uncle Tom or labeled in even more derogatory fashion. They do not recognize that they themselves are being extremely racist.

If they were to think about it seriously, they would recognize that the epitome of freedom is the ability to express your opinions whatever they are. They should be proud of the fact that the civil rights movement has yielded a variety of opinions within their own community.

It is time for all the liberals to start thinking about how they can promote freedom of expression rather than how they can herd everyone into their philosophical corral.

How else can one explain the left? Intolerant describes them to a "T".

I watched part of CPAC this past weekend - caught only the last bit of Ann Coulter's stuff, and then hung around to watch Ted Cruz.

Rand Paul won the CPAC straw poll, by 1% over Marco Rubio, 25% to 24%.  Cruz was way down, about 4%.

But my guess is that Rand Paul wouldn't get the backing of the R's up there in DC, either in office, or out of it - as he is too "much" for them to handle. (Think Karl Rove)

Ted Cruz went against Feinstein, who really never answered his question, just gave a reply of 'what she's been doing in government.



And, Obama's got the White House all to himself, now that there are no tours - which he tried to palm off onto the Secret Service, and Carney said it was the White House that did it.  Guess they just can't NOT tell lies!

What a deal!

I just got in the mail a postcard with some specials from http://www.nystyledeli.com/cgi-bin/deli/index.html New York Style Deli,  a purveyor of the BEST hot dogs ever!

What, you say, are the best hot dogs? They are Zweigle's White Hots! (at least in my opinion).  They are having their annual March Madness sale -

5 packages of Zweigles dogs, your choice, and you get 2 packages free, delivered for only $64.90.  Or you can up to the 12 package deal where you get more free.  My daughter likes the cooler they use, as it looks like a large Lego block. Last cooler, she asked me to buy spray paint for her (she's not 21 yet), so I got some red, and we had a large red Lego.  Unfortunately she sprayed it on the lawn, so we had a red spot on our front lawn too for a while, until the grass grew out.

White hots are from Rochester, NY, and started back years ago, and are sold at the minor league stadium in Rochester.  I grew up with these things - Grandma would come for a visit with 3 suitcases. One of clothes, one full of red hots, the other full of white hots.  We sure looked forward to her visits.

A white hot, according to the Zweigle's website, is:

One of 'America’s 8 Best Boardwalk Foods' is a combination of pork, beef and veal and our famous old world recipe, stuffed in a natural pork casing for a product that is bursting with flavor.

Its's mild, and you cook it till it pops open, and is blackened on the outside, as shown below:

On another note, McCain and Graham make me SOOOO mad, I would gladly bring tar and feathers up to DC to give them a good coating of both, and then help ride them out on a rail!

THIS is why...

This is why the Second Amendment was written into the Constitution:


A 71-year-old woman delivering newspapers with her daughter remained in intensive care Thursday night after she was shot twice in the back by Los Angeles police detectives during a massive manhunt for a fugitive ex-LAPD officer, according to the womens' attorney.

Emma Hernandez was delivering the Los Angeles Times with her daughter, Margie Carranza, 47, in Torrance early Thursday when police officers apparently mistook their pickup for that of Christopher Jordan Dorner, the 33-year-old fugitive suspected of killing three people and injuring two others.

The officers riddled the women's blue pickup with bullets in the 19500 block of Redbeam Avenue.

The attorney for the women said, "...it looked like the police had the goal of administering street justice and in so doing, didn't take the time to notice that these two older, small Latina women don't look like a large black man."

The guy that they are looking for is black, 6 feet tall, and weighs 270 lbs. 

This is police out of control...and why, if only cops had guns, we'd have a good reason to be afraid.  

Speaking of stuff like that, the government recently bought another few million rounds of hollow points.  Throw that in with an Executive Order Obama signed - giving the government control over everything "in case of national emergency".  The Executive Order is found here http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2012/03/16/executive-order-national-defense-resources-preparedness">http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2012/03/16/executive-order-national-defense-resources-preparedness.  Some interesting parts:


Sec. 201.  Priorities and Allocations Authorities.  (a)  The authority of the President conferred by section 101 of the Act, 50 U.S.C. App. 2071, to require acceptance and priority performance of contracts or orders (other than contracts of employment) to promote the national defense over performance of any other contracts or orders, and to allocate materials, services, and facilities as deemed necessary or appropriate to promote the national defense, is delegated to the following agency heads:

(1)  the Secretary of Agriculture with respect to food resources, food resource facilities, livestock resources, veterinary resources, plant health resources, and the domestic distribution of farm equipment and commercial fertilizer;

(2)  the Secretary of Energy with respect to all forms of energy;

(3)  the Secretary of Health and Human Services with respect to health resources;

(4)  the Secretary of Transportation with respect to all forms of civil transportation;

(5)  the Secretary of Defense with respect to water resources; and

(6)  the Secretary of Commerce with respect to all other materials, services, and facilities, including construction materials.

Now, ain't THAT special? 

On another note - that method of housecleaning really works.  A few weeks later, my house is cleaner, the dust bunnies no longer have 6 inch fangs dripping poison, and hubby is happier.   

Onward and upward! 

Wow!

Ted Cruz from Texas, recently replacing the basically worthless Kay Bailey Hutchinson, has come out swinging.

I learned he sent a letter to BofA, TD Bank, Smith & Wesson, and Sturm, Ruger & Co. You can read it here http://www.cruz.senate.gov/record.cfm?id=339444.  Click on the icon on the bottom right for full screen to see the document!

We need more of these type of people in DC!

Talk about stupid...

Stupid as in wanting women on the front lines in combat. Sheer idiocy. Does this mean all females will have to register with selective service once they hit the age of 18? and those currently 35 and under need to register, in case of draft? What's next, female SEALs? They'd have to drop the phyiscal requirements.. I can't get over how stupid some are.  And for your enjoyment, here is a video from Flower Drum Song,



I'm a girl, and by me that's only great!
I am proud that my silhouette is curvy,
That I walk with a sweet and girlish gait
With my hips kind of swivelly and swervy.

I adore being dressed in something frilly
When my date comes to get me at my place.
Out I go with my Joe or John or Billy,
Like a filly who is ready for the race!

When I have a brand new hairdo
With my eyelashes all in curl,
I float as the clouds on air do,
I enjoy being a girl!

When men say I'm cute and funny
And my teeth aren't teeth, but pearl,
I just lap it up like honey
I enjoy being a girl!

I flip when a fellow sends me flowers,
I drool over dresses made of lace,
I talk on the telephone for hours
With a pound and a half of cream upon my face!

I'm strictly a female female
And my future I hope will be
In the home of a brave and free male
Who'll enjoy being a guy having a girl... like... me.

When men say I'm sweet as candy
As around in a dance we whirl,
It goes to my head like brandy,
I enjoy being a girl!

When someone with eyes that smoulder
Says he loves ev'ry silken curl
That falls on my iv'ry shoulder,
I enjoy being a girl!

When I hear the compliment'ry whistle
That greets my bikini by the sea,
I turn and I glower and I bristle,
But I happy to know the whistle's meant for me!

I'm strictly a female female
And my future I hope will be
In the home of a brave and free male
Who'll enjoy being a guy having a girl... like... me.

A short fiction

Fiction is what this executive order is:  http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2011-11-15/pdf/2011-29683.pdf.

Just sayin.. he runs up more in debt than all the other presidents combined, but says he's doing "efficient spending".  People are screaming about a 1% cut in the RATE of increase, in that "it can't be done to the welfare state".  a ONE percent in the rate of growth can't be done? Note: a 1% decrease in the rate of growth would save almost a trillion dollars.

If you want to try to figure out if you want to laugh, cry, or do both at the same time, check out the Executive Order on "Efficient Spending" linked above!

This really works!

And MIRACLES too! really! I can see the top of my coffee table! I used to use the Sidetracked Home Executives method of doing  housework, and my house was spotless...then I went & volunteered to teach PreK and K at church, when they needed a teacher. For 4 years, my house fell by the wayside, as I was gone M-F from 7 till around 6 or 7 each night.

After hubby doing lots of sighing at me, and wishing I could get caught up again, I am back to their method of keeping house.

You can find their book at Amazon, http://www.amazon.com/Sidetracked-Home-Executives-TM-Paradise/dp/0446677671/.

You'll hear the stories of the 'slob sisters', and how they found a method that isn't taught in those "how to organize stuff" books - that assume you're ALREADY an organized person!

I can't highly recommend this system/book enough.  There is also a website, that you can go sign up for, and it will help you along with your daily routines - http://www.flylady.net/.

In their emails, there are testimonials to some of the stuff they sell (I skip that), and go to the Flight Plan, each week has a mission - a small mission, but a necessary one nonetheless - this is today's mission:

Zone 4: Mission #1 Monday

Dear Friends:

This week we are in the Master Bedroom. Today I want you to spend 15 minutes under your bed! LOL! Take this time to get the things out from under the bed that you have shoved under there during a mad stash and dash through the house.15 minutes might not be enough, but for today, just try to put a dent in the stuff that you have put there. Things that just don't belong. If you don't have anything under your bed, then grab a vacuum cleaner or broom and get the dust bunnies that have been multiplying under there. Have fun with this, just 15 minutes, set you time and go go go!

I hate to say it, but I'm afraid of what I'm going to find under the bed! those dust bunnies might have mutated into things with fangs.  Not to mention, we have those green Anoles living around here.  The time they come into the house by the scads is just over, and I'm sure to find several dead ones.  Good thing we have a futon frame, I can lift the futon, and pull up the boards to look under there good with a flashlight! hah! When the girls were young, they had hamsters and gerbils - one night a gerbil got out - we found him under our bed. I blinded him with the flashlight while hubby grabbed him & we popped him back into his cage.  Sneaky bugger! 

Well I've been putting off my chores long enough to drink a cup of coffee, time to get started for the day.  :)
