ABC Shilling for Gun Control
The mendacity of ABC is already well known.
Their 20/20 piece on guns takes them to a lower level yet.
In John Lott's examination of ABC's shameful hit piece on our 2nd Ammendment rights he compares it to their onetime low of faking the exploding gas tanks.
Once again, they are willing to make outrageous statements like, "If you are wondering where are all the studies about the effectiveness of gunes used by ordinary Americans for self-defense, well keep searching, we could not find one reliable study and the ones we found were contradictory."
Mr. Lott cites 26.
The word obdurate can apply to these who will always remain indestructibly ignorant of the truth.
One thing I found interesting was that the Columbine shooting spree coincided with the day that the "state legislature had scheduled final passage of the concealed handgun law."
He also dispels the myth about gunshows being a haven for illegal gun purchases.
All in all, I find ABC despicable in their abandonment of even rudimentary journalistic ethics.

Prop 8 Upheld: All Win
Prop 8 upheld in the California Supreme Court by a 6-1 vote.
From 160 (PDF version)
Most Americans just want a society that all play by the same rules. That lock up criminals that don't. That reward and promote good decision making.
From 160 (PDF version)
Although this initiative process was thereby instituted as a remedy for government corruption, and to free legislation from the influence of powerful special interests and the Legislature's own self-serving inertia, there is no indication that this process was intended to prevent courts from performing their traditional constitutional function of protecting persecuted minorities from the majority will. There is a fundamental difference between preventing politically powerful minorities from unduly influencing legislative and judicial decisions on the one hand, and preventing courts from protecting the rights of disfavored minorities unable to obtain equal rights through the usual majoritarian processes on the other.
This is a victory for the people who are tired of being bullied by small, obnoxious, special interest groups. Forget the homosexual ideology, the same law-bending practices are evident in topics like illegal aliens, late term abortion, and hate crimes. Most Americans just want a society that all play by the same rules. That lock up criminals that don't. That reward and promote good decision making.

Blaming Bush
If George W. Bush had made a joke at the expense of the Special Olympics, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had given Tony Blair a set of inexpensive and useless (to Tony Blair's UK video formatting) DVDs, when Tony Blair had given him a thoughtful and historically significant gift, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had given the Queen of England an iPod containing videos of his speeches, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had visited Austria and made reference to the non-existent "Austrian language," would you have brushed it off as a minor slip?
If George W. Bush had filled his cabinet and circle of advisers with people who cannot seem to keep current on their income taxes, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had ordered the firing of the CEO of a major corporation, even though he had no constitutional authority to do so, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had proposed to double the national debt, which had taken more than two centuries to accumulate, in one year, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had then proposed to double the debt again within 10 years, would you have approved?
So, tell me again, what is it about Obama that makes him so brilliant and impressive?
Can't think of anything? Don't worry. He's done all this in 10 weeks -- so you'll have three years and nine-and-a-half months to come up with an answer.

Dead People Get Stimulus
Checks
Published : Thursday, 14 May 2009, 5:28 PM EDT
MYFOXNY.COM - This week, thousands of people are getting stimulus checks in the mail. The problem is that a lot of them are dead. A Long Island woman was shocked when she checked the mail and received a letter from the U.S. Treasury -- but it wasn't for her.
When asked about giving the government that money back, she wasn't happy about that either: "They're just pissing it away".

Becoming Illegal
(Actual letter from an Iowa resident and sent to his senator)
The Honorable Tom Harkin
731 Hart Senate Office Building
Washington , DC 20510
Dear Senator Harkin,
As a native Iowan and excellent customer of the Internal Revenue Service, I am writing to ask for your assistance. I have contacted the Department of Homeland Security in an effort to determine the process for becoming an illegal alien and they referred me to you.
My primary reason for wishing to change my status from U.S. Citizen to illegal alien stems from the bill which was recently passed by the Senate and for which you voted. If my understanding of this bill's provisions is accurate, as an illegal alien who has been in the United States for five years, all I need to do to become a citizen is to pay a $2,000 fine and income taxes for three of the last five years. I know a good deal when I see one and I am anxious to get the process started before everyone figures it out.
Simply put, those of us who have been here legally have had to pay taxes every year so I'm excited about the prospect of avoiding two years of taxes in return for paying a $2,000 fine. Is there any way that I can apply to be illegal retroactively? This would yield an excellent result for me and my family because we paid heavy taxes in 2004 and 2005.
Additionally, as an illegal alien I could begin using the local emergency room as my primary health care provider. Once I have stopped paying premiums for medical insurance, my accountant figures I could save almost $10,000 a year.
Another benefit in gaining illegal status would be that my daughter would receive preferential treatment relative to her law school applications, as well as 'in-state' tuition rates for many colleges throughout the United States for my son.
Lastly, I understand that illegal status would relieve me of the burden of renewing my driver's license and making those burdensome car insurance premiums. This is very important to me given that I still have college age children driving my car.
If you would provide me with an outline of the process to become illegal (retroactively if possible) and copies of the necessary forms, I would be most appreciative. Thank you for your assistance.
Your Loyal Constituent, ( hoping to reach 'illegal alien' status rather than just a bonafide citizen of the USA )

Specter and magical thinking
Specter first thinks he'll be re-elected as a Democrat. Second, he thinks that Democrats will keep *hic* their promises.
Specter plays down loss of committee seniority
Specter shows amazing confidence that his backstabbing he handed the Democrats won't be repaid, explains how his betrayal of fellow RHINO's was well planned as Sen. Reid (whose well earned Rush-nickname is Dingy):
"my seniority will be maintained under the arrangement I worked out with" Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., before switching.
Before switching... Did you get that in writing? Why don't you call some of his fiends [sic] in Vegas and find out why you might consider that.
"I think everyone should just kind of relax and understand he's a Democrat," Reid said. "We're doing our best to try to make him happy as a Democrat. I think he is."

Obama Promises 63B to World Health
In another bewildering move to prop up brutal dictatorships under the guise of health care spending.
Remember all the Bush era criticisms of food, vaccines, and money, just 'disappearing' into the hands of drug lords, war lords, and dictators?
Of course keeping their subjects barely alive and collecting all sorts of other foreign aid helps.
My question is how is this really going to help the world's poor, when the Socialists of the world are trying to reduce the population of the world by about 92.6%
Now: 6,778,052,068
Desired: 500,000,000
Just trying to figure this all out.

Progressive Thought, or Lack Thereof
Lenin’s dictum, “A revolution without firing squads is meaningless”
What good fortune for those in power that people do not think.” - Adolf Hitler
Just read an article published by Wired about the Georgia Guidestones. This thing represents classic Liberal/Progressive pap. They make no sense whatsoever and contradict each other. The article describes it as "Satanic", yet you hear AlGore and his ilk uttering the same thing regularly. Here they are, with my comments:
Genocide:
MAINTAIN HUMANITY UNDER 500,000,000
IN PERPETUAL BALANCE WITH NATURE
Nazi Style Eugenics:
GUIDE REPRODUCTION WISELY —
IMPROVING FITNESS AND DIVERSITY
Esperanto:
UNITE HUMANITY WITH A LIVING
NEW LANGUAGE
Thought Police:
RULE PASSION — FAITH — TRADITION
AND ALL THINGS
WITH TEMPERED REASON
New World Fascism:
PROTECT PEOPLE AND NATIONS
WITH FAIR LAWS AND JUST COURTS
UN World Courts:
LET ALL NATIONS RULE INTERNALLY
RESOLVING EXTERNAL DISPUTES
IN A WORLD COURT
World Bureaucracy:
AVOID PETTY LAWS AND USELESS
OFFICIALS
Social Control:
BALANCE PERSONAL RIGHTS WITH
SOCIAL DUTIES.
Paganism Through Lust:
PRIZE TRUTH — BEAUTY — LOVE —
SEEKING HARMONY WITH THE
INFINITE
Euthanasia:
BE NOT A CANCER ON THE EARTH —
LEAVE ROOM FOR NATURE —
LEAVE ROOM FOR NATURE
Utter fools, "Useless Idiots", and worse, these people advocate an elitist way of thinking that have never worked. Progressives need take their own advice and"be not a cancer on the earth".
