What’s Happening…

Well, lemme see… The Lightbringer has fired the CEO of GM, thrown Chrysler under the Italian bus; if I were Fiat, I’d stall, let Chrysler go bankrupt and THEN buy for pennies on the dollar, void ALL union contracts and start over…

Got slapped down by the G20, made a speech directly to the German people (howinhell did he get away with that?) Is flying around with an entourage of about 500 people and apparently 12 teleprompters…

They have rammed through the largest tax increases in history on tobacco ($6.61 a carton on cigarettes, and $23/lb on roll your own tobacco)…


Had ANOTHER income tax “issue”. Jeez do ANY Democrats actually pay ALL their income taxes??? Sebelius… Who is a fruit cake anyway and now SHE is in charge of Health Care? O.M.G!


Sadly there was a shooting today in NY State apparently 12 dead plus the shooter, but I guess everyone has seen coverage… Thoughts and Prayers go out to the families of those who were killed.


Frank James has details up HERE on his Corn, Beans and Brass blog about the truth on the Mexican guns! Frank pretty much calls it as he sees it anyway, and does a MUCH better job than I… Go Read!!! JR over at A Keyboard and a .45 has a post up too. Also, HERE is a link to Fox News with video…

Oh yeah, if you REALLY want to get your blood pressure up, go HERE and take the carbon calculator survey… I got a 23.5, of course I live on the road, and drive a V-8, so I’m on their S**T list anyway…

As far as I can tell, if you own a car and like to heat your house in the winter, you’re going to be in the “much higher than average” category. One of my friends on the Left slide…er side sent it to me, and she’s horrified at how high she scored and she says she’s going to make some changes.

What’s bad is, I know a bunch of idjits like my friend will go out and buy Priuses and mercury-infused light bulbs to get their scores down, but what this really says to me is that unless I retire and move into a nice, unheated yurt (somewhere in the Southwest, so I don’t use carbon in my commute), there’s nothing I can do to earn forgiveness from the lefties. So I might as well climb keep getting on those 777s for a few more trips to earn my paltry salary…

Oh yeah, for my shooting friends, Natchez Shooters Supply has .223 for 12.99 a box…

Y’all have a good weekend!

  1. Don’t have to take that test,my count would be off the chart.I have to use FWD trucks in my business,and we raise those ol nasty methane producing beef cows,which they are proposing to tax,and I like to run the a/c in these hot Fl. summers. If Gordo and his ilk get their way, they will bankrupt the farmers,ranchers and whats left of American industry, real soon.

  2. 19.85. Larger than average. Who are these average people? Amazon Indians who’ve just been discovered?

  3. Diller- Agreed! Although I understand there are now Millions to be invested in reducing the methane from cows by developing a new feed…

    ELM- I think so…

    CS/Snigs- We’re ALL targets, even while we earn livings that allow us to keep our families fed…

  4. 32.65. I live by myself, drive over 40K miles job-related a year and I don’t/ won’t fly.

  5. Fuzzy- Good on ya!

    Rick- Flying is ‘such’ fun… At least when I’m driving 🙂 Heard that on the living alone and driving too!

  6. apparently only americans get to play 🙁 … i guess i could pick a state to live in but then i still have to do the miles to kms conversions and such – just way too hard …. i’ll just remain blissfully ignorant.

  7. Hear! Hear!
    I’m most especially with you on the “void all union contracts” thingie. Screw ’em. They’ve been screwing their customers for decades. Time for ’em to get as good as they give.

  8. ADM- We’d NEVER get it down to keep the LWLs happy…

    Julie- Don’t sweat it 🙂

    Phlegmmy- Agreed!
