Reality in the Mideast

I'm sure most folks are pretty well aware of just what is going on in the countries of the Mideast. Just look at all the different countries where people have finally had enough of the dictators that have been inflicted on them.

What was the First thing Hitler did to the Germans when he came to power? What did Mussolini do? How about Franco, and all the other petty dictators all over Europe and virtually the world?

Why, they took all the guns away!! Imagine that. And all the little sheeple just let them do it because they had become so enamoured of the bullshit that was driven down their throats. Then later it finally dawned on them as they were slowly being decimated for various reasons, ethnicity, color, political leanings, not enough matter between the ears!
So what could they do about it all? Not much, as they had given away all their means of self defense!

Just look what has been happening yesterday and today in Libya. People being bombed by their own military and shot down in the streets like mad dogs by their police using heavy machine guns. But sheer numbers and determination are likely to turn the tide there. Already some of the military are refusing to kill their own families, friends and countrymen! You have to be one hard hearted SOB to kill your own folks just because some syphilitic egomaniac says so.

I really am glad to see these folks rise up and try to get out from under a dictatorial regime. I just wish that they were able to use something other than machetes, pitchforks sticks and rocks to overcome their adversaries.

Now you can see folks for yourselves folks, just why all we right wing crazy gun nuts will do almost anything to hang on to our guns and ammo. This is why the so called "Gun Lobby" does all we can in Congress to stop the continual assault by the many socialist "anti gun" groups from disarming the general public!! They know that as it stands right now, that if they tried any of the methods of subjugation that have happened in these Mid-eastern countries that at least all we right wing crazies would have the means to rise up and PUT THEM IN THE GROUND!

I also don't think for one second that the US Military would stand for it to happen. Police Forces? That is a different story altogether.

OBTW, Did you know that according to the Constitution that the "Sheriffs Offices/Departments" are the ONLY legal officers of the law that we are supposed to have?

SO be not afraid folks, for as much as you have tried to disarm everyone of us, when and if the time comes when we have to come to your aid, rest assured we will be there!!! And we won't even ask what your views are on individual gun control! TIFN

Wisconsin Winners

It must be really tough when you have been on the receiving end of all the largess of other peoples money, brought to you through the good offices of your favorite labor union for all the years you have been a "public employee", only to finally face the fact that the good times are about over.

You all keep saying that you are willing to take cuts, albeit small ones, in your wages and will be willing to pay a percentage of your health care premiums. But that was brought to you in the beginning by the gross mis-use of the collective bargaining rules! So why would anyone with two grams of brain matter, believe that the very self same thing would not happen again if these onerous CB were not done away with. You keep screaming about subverting Democracy! And just what about the Democracy infringements you have inflicted on all the people who pay out of their pockets so that you get your mostly undeserved desserts?

I guess you all know that the 11th Amendment gives each of the States the sovereignty to run the matters of their state as the voters see fit. And in Wisconsin, the voters have spoken loud and clear! Each State DOES NOT have to have a Public Employees Union! So it is completely within the purview of the Governor to abolish that abomination as it IS the will of the people! Now all you lefties can rant and rave and call the Governor, The Midwest Mubarak, or Hitler, or Mussolini, but that does nothing more than show your complete ignorance. You guys are always trying to compare apples and oranges and they will never be homogeneous.

So hopefully you have all taken your ill-gotten gains and invested them in all of your messiah Obama's banks and Automobile manufacturing facilities. Or maybe there was a "Stimulus"program in your town that kept you in a few more bucks massaging, errr, managing the money till it was gone. It is probably time for most of you to join the unemployment lines and find out what real life is like when you are off the public tit, errr slop trough! TIFN

Gun Grabbers at work again

Well I listened to Brian WIlliams on NBC news last night ranting about AZ having to re-think their gun laws after the shooting there.
First off he alleged that it would never have happened if BUSH, (AGAIN) hadn't let the extended magazine, assault weapon ban expire. He then goes on to tell us all that the guy had two 30 round clips and fired all of one and was changing them out when he was jumped on. He killed six I believe it is and wounded many others before fe could be stopped.

Now, put this scenario in front of all those people standing in line, what if:

Over the last thirty years, gun owners hadn't been demonized as crazed killers;

What if gun owners rights hadn't been so infringed on, that they can not carry a concealed weapon with out some apparachik saying it was okay?

What if everyone of those people waiting in line had a legally owned and carried weapon, was trained in its use and practiced with it regularly?

Do you really think that that asshole would have gotten off more than 4 or 5 rounds before someone would have taken him down?

Do you honestly think that it would have turned into chaos with all those trained and knowledgable gun toters turning it into a gunfight at the OK Corral?

So Mr Williams, I say to you that the screening process may need some serious tweaking, or at least certain gun shops might need some review of their business practices, who ever fills out the paperwork ascertaining that the buyer is mentally competent and physically capable of using a gun should be held accountable if all he does is look across a counter and says to himself, "well he looks okay too me", and sells him a firearm.

How should you be certified mentally able? I'm not sure without it falling too an officer of the law or worse, a shrink who would be two of the limiting factors in gun sales! How would you pick one that was neither, rabid pro or con in his deliberations and examination? I don't know.

But I know one thing for sure, there WOULD NOT have been near as many injured folks there or anywhere else!
Just think how the carjacking incidents would go down if every potential jacker thought that all those drivers had a gun in their hand pointed at THEM!! TIFN

Happy New Year too all you good folks! Obama excluded!

Well I guess I'm going to have to get off my lazy butt and get back into this blogging stuff again. The bullets, rocks, slings and arrows are not falling as thick and fast around here so I guess I can come out of the cellar and stop counting my bullets,bread, and potatoes!

So what is everyones take on how many more Constitutional rights are going to be abrogated and or diminished by this intellectual midget in the Whitehouse? He is doing an outstanding job of turning this country into a socialist shit-hole by using his "executive order" powers, his appointment of 40 some unconfirmed by Congress "Czars", and worst of all his appointment of people to really powerful jobs during times the Congress is not in session. He uses every means at his disposal, legal,shady,or otherwise to bring down this great country.

Go back to the top of the page where my profile is and reread the part about fighting for your freedom and about when you should start! The time is behind us when we should have begun, but it is still not too late! Start again tomorrow to inundate these phony national politicians from our state to do what they were sworn to do when they took office, 'To defend and protect the Constitution of the United States of America"! That oath did not mention one thing thing about fealty too your political party of choice, and it certainly said nothing about taking uncounted dollars from unions to do their bidding in the halls of Congress, NOT ONE FRIGGING WORD! It is time to do away with unions@ they have served their purpose and now are a huge drain on the public at large!!

Hey! Have a Happy New Year---,,,, if you are able! TIFN

Retraction

Go to the previous post about the Clerk of the Works and read comment #5.

Old Harbor Dock Shenannigans

So just what is a CoW?

The Clerk Of The Works job description template includes the following job summary: To provide on-site observation, issue progress reports, oversee budget, act as owner's representative with architects and contractors, and monitor all operations to ensure quality of construction in accordance with specifications and code requirements. Additional information available includes essential job functions, additional responsibilities, and education and experience requirements.

Anybody got any idea just WHERE our CoW is for this job? Well I just found out today that he resides, on a daily basis in the grand old city of Beantown Ma.! What the hell is he doing up there? He must have fantastic eyesight to be able to monitor just what is going on down here almost a hundred miles away!

I thought the operative words in the job description was "on-site observation"? So just what is going on here? Is there some sort of an agreement between the hire-ee and the hire-er? Dollar bills being kicked around? back and forth?

Just how does one go about getting in this largess where you get paid $100K to not show up on the job? Didn't we just go through an election where the people of this country told the friggin' politicians to straighten up and fly right or else? SO what the hell is the reason the local ones and the bueareucrats just blow us all off and go right to outright crookery? I'm pissed and you all should be too!! TIFN

On, and Of Kings and Queens

I just came across this in a folder full of misc. "stuff" and thought I'd post it here. It was written about 10-12 years ago or whenever the Queen Mum croaked. I think I sent it to the local paper but Mr. Wood declined to print it, so 'ere it is matey's!


ON AND OF KINGS AND QUEENS

The recent notices on TV and in the newspapers about the passing of “The Queen Mum”, has brought out of hiding in me, all the feelings of the ardent separatist that led my ancestors to depart the European Continent three hundred and some years ago. And to then become involved in that little brush fire called the American Revolution. I watch the rites being acted out with regard to the death of Elizabeth’s Mother and my revulsion for the whole system of Kings and Queens, rises to the fore.

They speak of themselves as being “of royal blood”. Well, just what is royal blood? Is it imbued with, or does it posses some “factor” that the rest of we commoners don’t have? Is it really blue? If so, is it blue because it is “special” or because it is tainted? Where did it come from in the first place? Was it brought here from another world and injected into them? I think not. The only thing that we know for sure about royal blood is that it has been sorely weakened by the repeated occasions of inbreeding that has gone on for hundreds of years!

So from where did these people derive their ability to call themselves Royal? When you take a good long, long, look back in time, you discover that we all arose from virtually the same line of ancestors. Cro-Magnon I believe is the presently accepted line of descent.

All over the European and African continents as the tribe moved out to colonize new ground, some of them split off from the main group and went in different directions. Some went on over to England, Ireland, Scotland. Some moved up to the Scandinavian countries. Still others went on to become part of the Germanic hordes and to colonize the Balkans and down into Italy, Greece, etc.

In each of these tribes there was probably at least one strong willed, as well as physically strong person, who took it upon himself to be the leader. He, in all probability, was not elected to the position by any sort of due process. After awhile he may have become disenchanted with the title of “Chief” and cast around for another word that would make him seem to be of more “stature” in the eyes of his other tribesman. In due course and with the continuing evolution of the languages, some one of them came up with the name, “KING”! Then the self-crowned king says, “ I have to call my life partner something, so it shall be “QUEEN”! While we are at it, and in the business of procreating, henceforth all our little offspring will be known as PRINCES and PRINCESSES!” Voila! Thus was born the, NOBLE, ROYAL, MAJESTIC, farce that has been perpetrated on the people of the world ever since!

Over the course of time it spread to all the different tribes, and in order to keep the power solidified and contained within the ruling families, the art of inter-marrying and inbreeding became a major part of their lives undertakings. All the pomp and circumstance that they could possibly add to the trappings of their office, was there solely to keep impressed on the minds of the “commoners”, just who it was that held sway over their very lives. With a snap of their fingers, they could have anyone they took umbrage with dispatched to the nether world.

After a couple thousand years, it looks as though most of the world has come to recognize the fact that Kings and Queens are passe now. They have become nothing more than a financial drain on the treasury of the countries who still hang on to the artificial myth of Nobility and Royalty. I am SO glad that my ancestors had the foresight to either leave, or get kicked out of, Merry Auld England when they did. If nothing else was gained by their departure, it gave me the ability to write this little harangue without the worry of losing my head to the headsman’s axe, as did Anne Bolyn, Kathryn Parr and the rest of “Good KING Henry the Eight’s” marital brood!!

New Hampshire Dreamin'

Is obama really as stupid as he appears to be?

Back in 08 he said he'd been to all 57 states! Hell, I haven't even been to a lot of them, and I can't even find the other seven that he has been too! I think he was talking about those ones out west near la la land. Let's see, The State of Confusion?, The State of Disorganization?, The State of Disorientation?, The State of Stupidity? The State of Unreality ?!!

Well last night he was in at least two of them and thought he was in a third! He was in RI, thought he was in NH and was really in the state Confusion! Oh Yeah, he was probably tired from all his flying around exhorting the faithful to keep the crooks in DC.

What an ass we have for a President. Shirhan Shihran, Lee harvey, where are you and your cohorts? TIFN

Another letter in the mail

Do we have another Arlen Specter in the wings? I haven't quite figured out what is going on with some of the candidates running for office this year.

Is not/did not Mr. Torrey run as a Democrat in the last go round? He is apparently running again under the same banner but with some different twists.

When you run for Second Warden as a Dem. and the guy running for First Warden is also endorsed and put forward by the Dems., why on earth would you attack him in a box holder mailing? What's up with that? Is there no verbal intercourse between members of the same party as to philosophy and agenda? Sounds to me like things are a little fragmented over there.

A new roof and a fresh coat of paint is NOT a solution of any sort! I don't think that coat of paint is going to keep the new roof up there for very long. In my experience if you are going to rehab a building you start with the foundation or what ever underpinnings are there. This is no more than a tourniquet, band aid, approach to a body that needs major surgery. What are the future plans NOW being drawn up to ameliorate this predicament? Any? Just WHAT is under consideration? Time frame? And just where do you propose to get the money?

Oh Yeah, the Old Harbor Dock. Last year it was deemed necessary to hire a Clerk of the Works for the princely sum of $100,000.00 to "oversee" the construction of said edifice. This year there IS NO daily, on the job person there to watch the "works". Whatever made that need disappear? I have noticed the Town Manager appears at the site now and then. Is this the oversight we previously needed? Has she the necessary "degrees" to do this job? I'm sure that "no money " will be the answer, but do we not employ a building inspector with all the necessary qualifications to do that job at no additional cost to the taxpayers? The building business has kind of slowed down so he might have a few minutes a day to devote to this endeavor, if his boss would tell him to so bestir himself. WUWT?

As far as Ms Gaffets attending a lot of the board and committee meetings. WHY? don't you trust your appointees to do the job without your attendance in the audience to intimidate and/or "steer" them too the conclusion you would like? Leave them the hell alone till they bring a recommendation too you. Is that not why you have these, boards, committees, and commissions, so that YOU don't have to attend to all those matters personally?

Well we'll see how it all shakes out in12-14 days. Then we'll see what happens after that. In this economy as bad as it is, I don't see much hope for any money for much of anything except the bare day to day expenses like wages, and bill paying.

Hey guys, you want to save a pocketful of money? Turn off the friggin' street lights!
Nobody needs them except the BIPCO! TIFN

Is There a Capital Budget in our future? Or the Present?

I don't the answer to this and being to lazy to go down and find out, I pose the question here.

If we do, and I had assumed we always had one, why have not the infrastructure issues been addressed thru the putting aside of adequate monies every year until there is enough to do these jobs! We should have been focusing on doing this for the past two decades and NOT ROBBING the money to do some "feel good" enterprises.

The Harbors dept. has for a long time been the only revenue producing entity among the town departments, yet all the income produced has done very little to enhance their "charges" i.e attending to mooring fields, pump out boat maintenance and acquisition, keeping the harbors in good order. And this is because they just can't "keep" the money to do the things that needed being done. They had to go begging for funds for virtually anything.

This little burg is in dire need of some entity who will go around, and with a microscope, search out internally and externally, every building in the town's inventory and write down ALL the discrepancies and what needs to be done to rectify them in a timely manner.

At one time there was a Town wide person who attended to problems as they were brought to his attention in a hap hazard manner. A lot of the little picayune, niggling things got done but by and large the things that cost thousands and needed more than one person to do them were swept under the rug or tossed on the heap of "things to get done just before they fall apart"! That is no way to run a town or a ship. While I was in the USN, every building,vehicle, ship, airplane, and boat was on a plan called the PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE PLAN! The key word there being "preventative"!

I did this job for the BI School Dept. for one year. It took about 6 weeks of intense scrutiny to find all the hidden problems, and then another month or so to draw up a preventative maint. plan for every bathroom, classroom, all heating equipment, A/C equipment, every electric motor, valve, knob and switch in the building. We streamlined the supply ordering process so that all consumables were ordered between two and three times a year instead of every other day all year long!

SO what is the answer? Hire a Public Works director to coordinate all this stuff and pay him
$50-80K a year? Then hire the person to do it all? At another $30-50k? My solution would be to look around at the locals and find someone that is a carpenter,plumber, electrician, etc. you know, the Jack-of-all-trades guy, pay him a good salary and then keep the building inspector off his ass and let him do the job. Get it inspected if need be. The friggin bureaucrats are what is dragging us into the quagmire in this country! TIFN

350th celebration

Hello All,

I saw in the paper of 10/02/10 an article about the 350th celebration products arriving. So I took the time to read it and even thought about being one of the 26 people to join the “club”. Or at least making a donation of some amount.
Last night I was attending a small get together of about 20-25 folks and this subject came up in conversation. Different feelings about upcoming use of the collected money was a hot topic. Some saw the use of the money for strictly frivolous entertainment purposes as just that, frivolous.
In this economy that we are now enduring, it was bandied about as to wether it would be a much better use of the funds if they were directed toward some lasting, and really needed use. How about if we make the whole idea of the 350th semiseptcentennial celebration an opportunity to do something that really needs doing within the Towns infrastructure?
Like what you may ask? How about getting a new roof on the Fire Barn before all that very expensive and needed equipment inside is subjected to the vagaries of the weather?
How about rebuilding the old Mill Pond Bridge before someone drops out of sight through it? We could even name it the 350th Memorial Bridge or some such.
Even the total rehabilitation of the Fred Benson Beach House might fall in this pervue. I understand it is in pretty rough shape as only temporary and rudimentary fixes have been the norm for the last few years.
If the committee thinks they can raise $25-50K for musical entertainment which is at best, a fleeting memory in a few days, why not go all out and go for the big bucks it would take to get the job, whichever venue is selected, DONE?
I have a feeling that contributions to a lasting, visible, and much needed repairs of infrastructure, will come in larger denominations than for a little instant gratification. Something we all need to be weened off of!

Where is the money?

I was talking to a couple members of the Town Council a few days ago and the emerging( for YEARS) problem of the Neck Road from the Beachead to Beach Avenue came up.

I asked what plans there were in the works to get something done to prevent the road becoming washed out in the next few good Noth'easta's or a hurricane?

One of the members said too me that back in 1992, money had been allocated to the town to fix the road up by the outfall pipe where it washed out in Hurricane Bob. He said that at that time, there was also a good dose of bucks allocated for shoring up the Neck Road as a preventative measure. Well as we can see there are no preventative measures in sight down there! There are now, by my count, 25 separate "cuts" to the beach along that same delineated stretch of road.

Man, we are doing ONE HELL OF A JOB OF DOING NOTHING!!

So the question is; Where is the money? Anybody got an answer? TIFN

Flag Etiquette, or lack thereof!

Every day for the last week or so as I have gone by the Town Hall, I've noticed something that really gets me up tight!
It is the fact that our United States of America Flag is being flown at the yardarm level at the outside position.

It is a wonder too me, that if there is a problem with the halyard or the pulley on the main pole, just why the hell doesn't SOMEONE (Town Manager?) call the Chief of the Fire Department and ask them to bring over the ladder truck and a new piece of line and get the damned thing fixed!

It is an unintentional desecration of our main artifact of national unity and pride I'm sure. Two or three times I've started to go in and raise the question of why it was being flown as such, But my well known propensity for flying off the handle would probably result in a visit by the local constabulary.

So I am doing it this way. If anyone reads this, why feel free to enter the halls of ineptitude and beard those lions in their den! TIFN

A Letter to the Editor from a disgruntled letter recipient.

A letter appeared in the BIT friday referring to the letter they received from Mr. Mooney. The writer was decrying the use of a few words, and his use of "divisive politics" to describe what has been going on in the Town Hall among it's elected denizens and other assorted hangers on. I will copy Mr. Mooney's comment, and then the response to it by the letter writer. To wit:

HE SAID: The recent attempt to reinterpret jack Gray's donative intent with regard to West Beach Road is self serving and a serious violation of the public trust.

SHE SAID: Can't we do better than calling political opponents "self serving"?

I SAID: What other words would you use to name an action that will be, in the end, a total detriment to the general population of the Island?

HE SAID: Referring to the West Beach Road residents as "greedy" because they objected to a wind turbine in their backyard is reprehensible.

SHE SAID: Can't we do better than calling political opponents, "reprehensible"?

I SAID: "Reprehensible," seems to me to be the perfect word to describe the mindset of the person or persons who uttered the word "greedy" in reference to those homeowners! How about despicable?, nefarious?, vile? I think disgraceful fits that person to a tee! Hmmm, wonder who it was?

HE SAID: Alleging that a relative of Jack Gray's companion in later life, constituted a "legal heir" who had no objection to altering Jack's intent is absolutely sinister!

SHE SAID: Can't we do better than calling political opponents, "sinister"?

I SAID: SHould we have called such a ploy, oh lets see, "heartening?, maybe propitious?, no? how about benevolent and honorable? It couldn't possibly be anything perfidious! I call it Absolute Bullshit!

I just find it SO HARD to believe that any elected official of this town would have the gall to go behind the back, and dead body of a land donor in order to circumvent his wishes. Yeah right!

Well I guess the "sinister" members of the council, ---that would be those of the "left" persuasion (err, in case you didn't know it, the word "left" comes from the Latin "sinistre". Not sure of the spelling but close, Fits perfectly now doesn't it.)--- figure they are continuing the work of looking out for all we "little people", tea baggers, right wing crazies by "doing what is right for we unthinking clods"!!!

LOOK OUT PEOPLE, THEY NEVER STOP "DOING FOR US"!! TIFN

Revisiting Mr. Terry Mooney

Well I received a letter in the mail today as I am sure a lot of other folks on BI did from Terry. It was a most welcome piece of correspondence. He gives a very good account of how he first became acquainted with BI, and of his activities over the intervening years. I would even go so far as to say that they were in the words of some people, me included, "Impeccable"! Jeez, another Vet!

So how do I reconcile my being a life long Elephant supporter with the idea of voting for a Donk for the first time since Kennedy? Well for the first time in a long time I like to believe that someone is really going to actually DO something about the problems of this town.

The first and foremost thing for the new First Warden to undertake, would be to actually practice that old political saw called, "Fiscal Responsibility" We hear about it all the time but we keep right on pissing money down the drain for crap we don't NEED or WANT.

As an example, we were told recently that we would NEED to hire engineers and "experts"to tell us how to "take care" of the Spring House pump house! Three or four guys with a long chain and a bulldozer and a match could do the job nicely in about two hours! OHH Heresy!!! How did this edifice that houses a water pump that has been defunct for 40 years or more, become a Historical Artifact? Has anybody famous or historical ever spent the night there? Maybe Bill and Monica under the pump housing platform? This is just another of the elitists cry for attention. Damn, it is just another of a thousand buildings on this Island that has had it's day in the sun and it is time for it to go.

Err, sorry about that! Couldn't resist. Anyway Terry, after you get elected keep on pursuing that elusive goal. Although I don't think it is all that out of reach now. Remember when the whole Fiscal Dept. was housed in the BIG? Remember when you could go there and get any information you needed in 4-5 minutes? Remember when the budget balanced and the people of the town could find out where every red cent had been spent? Then remember when it all went to hell and moved to the Town Hall?

The bullet points on the reverse of the letter refer to some of the more egregious ploys that have been "perped" (yeah I know that is not a word, but I like it) on the folks of this little burg. Actual honesty and aboveboard actions seem to have taken a long holiday here on BI!

So yeah, I am actually going to vote for a, ah, ah, ah, oh what the hell, a DONK! And I don't use that term in a perjorative manner. And yes I AM going to make a donation to the cause, Check is in the mail Terry! TIFN

IS THE WORM TURNING?

Well at least nine of the crooks in the State House got the boot yesterday! Not crooks you say? Just honest folks trying to do their best? Bullschuies!! Err, Jewish word mis-spelled means S*** There has been a one party system in this State for the last 50 years and they ALL had a hand in perpetuating it.

Well now all we have to hope for is that the ones selected in the primary, will do what they say and put us back on the path to a viable place to live and raise kids and families. All the free entitlements lavished on certain groups of people and paid for by the people who actually work has to stop!

Education Reform? Throw out all the so-called experts and go back to the basics IN ALL AREAS! Not just reading writing and 'rithmetic, but HISTORY for a start. shit-can all the books in use that have the revisionist versions of what really happened in history. I just spent part of the Summer reading three of the books used in the BI school. They are, Triumph of the American Nation;Harcourt,Brace,Jovanovich, for American History. For World History; People and Nations by Holt, Rinehart,and Winston, and for Civics; American Civics, by Holt, Rinehart,Winston.

These three books have minor problems with the recounting of actual happenings but are probably the least "revised" all the texts out there. I would attribute their selection and use in our School to the over-riding integrity and astuteness of the history teacher for the last 20 years, Mr. Bill Young.

But they all have areas where the "feel good" stuff perpetrated by the left still comes to the fore.
I am wondering if BI is going to fall in line with a lot of other school districts in the US and declare that from now on we will have multiple Valedictorians per each year! This, so that those students NOT selected won't feel so bad!

No one will have to compete against anyone else because, "we are all EQUAL"! What a crock! Is that what is going to happen when they finish 12 yrs. of school and then 4 years of college only to find out that they are NOT all equal when they go looking for a job? Happening right now! Ask a recent grad just high up the chain of command, or more appropriately, the FOOD CHAIN he is starting his working career. Uh, second towel man at the local car wash?

Well finally, after 30-40 years of the, "Dr. Feel Good People", Maybe we will finally go back to what really works and is truly in touch with reality. Yeah! Good luck with that! TIFN

Weasel Boy strikes again!!

Well the Dishonorable Senator Sheldon Whitehouse showed his true colors again, while being interviewed on a local TV station today.

How did he do it this time? It seems that in accordance with the dictates of his Goon in Chief obama, he just could not make himself say anything bad about the location of the new mosque in NYC!

He wishy washed his way around the whole question and the only thing he would commit himself too, was that the people of that fair city should be, "The only ones to make that decision". What a pussy! How about all the folks from all over this country and a few foreign ones who had relatives and friends die in the attack by those cowardly, chicken sh** muslims on 9/11?

Nope, thats our boy with NO COHONES in his makeup. Or his wardrobe. Dast I say "his pants"?

How you go Shel, always be true to your progressive, liberal elite,socialistic, communistic origins!

You, obama, ried, pelosi, frank, dodd, The Gang of Six misfits! GOD help us all! TIFN

"Inherited Deficit" ???
The Washington Post babbled again today about Obama inheriting 
a huge deficit from Bush. Amazingly enough,...... a lot of people swallow this 
nonsense. So once more, a short civics lesson.


Budgets do not come from the White House. They come from 
Congress, and the party that controlled Congress since January 2007 is the Democratic Party. They controlled the budget process for FY 2008 and FY 2009, as well as FY 2010 and FY 2011. In that first year, they had to contend with George Bush, 
which caused them to compromise on spending, when Bush somewhat belatedly got 
tough on spending increases.


For FY 2009 though, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid bypassed 
George Bush entirely, passing continuing resolutions to keep government running 
until Barack Obama could take office. At that time, they passed a massive omnibus-spending 
bill to complete the FY 2009 budgets.


And where was Barack Obama during this time? He was a member 
of that very Congress that passed all of these massive spending bills, and he 
signed the omnibus bill as President to complete FY 2009. 
If the Democrats inherited any deficit, it was the FY 2007 deficit, the last 
of the Republican budgets. That deficit was the lowest in five years, and the 
fourth straight decline in deficit spending. After that, Democrats in Congress 
took control of spending, and that includes Barack Obama, who voted for the budgets.

If Obama inherited anything, he inherited it from himself.
 In a nutshell, what Obama is saying is, I inherited a deficit 
that I voted for and then I voted to expand that deficit four-fold since January 
 20th.!!! Am I f***ed up or what? TIFN
PS. I didn't write this, it was sent to me, unattributed, in an email!! But here it is anyway.

Terry Mooney for First Warden?

My first question to Mr. Mooney would be to ask if he is a dyed in the wool strict democrat as defined by the originators of the party? There to look out for the "little guy" and make sure the robber barons et al, inflict minimal hurt to them financially and morally? Is this the kind of democrat you are? OR,

Are you a so called Progressive Democrat who is totally in line with the Obama Administration and the direction he is leading this country? And so there is no mistake about this direction, anyone with at least one half of a brain can see that this direction is toward a Socialistic oriented society where the government oversees every faction of your life from cradle to grave. That is where we are headed as fast as he and his socialistic/communistic minions in all the high places can shove it down our throats.

So if you can prove to me that you are of the former orientation, and devoid of the ideas ingrained in the Obama Adoration League ilk, I would cast my vote for you because we need someone in that position to again be looking out for the "little people" instead of using them for their own personal gain and gratification.

I'd put this in the form of a letter to the BIT but know that it would NOT get printed as written!. TIFN
