In addition to not knowing where he is, (hint: Kansas and Texas are NOT the same place). He’s at it again… Now it’s ATMs and teh Interwebz that are responsible for job losses…
“Layoffs too often became permanent, not part of the business cycle, And these changes didn’t just affect blue collar workers. If you were a bank teller or a phone operator or a travel agent, you saw many in your profession replaced by ATMs and the internet,” President Obama said at a campaign even in Kansas.
HERE is the video…
And in other news-
STANTON, Mich. (The Daily News of Greenville)- The United States is fighting terrorism – one snow cone at a time.
Montcalm County recently received a $900 Arctic Blast Sno-Cone machine.
The West Michigan Shoreline Regional Development Commission (WMSRDC) is a federal- and state-designated agency responsible for managing and administrating the homeland security program in Montcalm County and 12 other counties.
The WMSRDC recently purchased and transferred homeland security equipment to these counties – including 13 snow cone machines at a total cost of $11,700.
But the county that requested the popcorn machine didn’t get it… HERE is the rest of the story…
And that whole GM will buy back Volts if the customer is worried about battery safety… Um… Not so much…
General Motors attempted to clarify last week conflicting reports on whether the automaker was willing to buy back Chevy Volts from owners worried about battery safety.

And just for S&Gs… Jerry Brown is going DIRECT to the voters asking for a $7B tax increase.
Brown’s proposal is projected to raise $7 billion per year and would expire in 2016. (Yeah, right…) Article is HERE
I’m just gonna buy more ammo, go sit in my little corner and be nice and quiet…
“I’m just gonna buy more ammo, go sit in my little corner and be nice and quiet…”
Ditto.
The county that didn’t get a popcorn machine should claimed it was for emergency, biodegradable, packing material.
“should have claimed” …
Danged proofreader!
On the up side – I read where Black Friday this year smashed all records for gun purchases…
What Rev. Paul and ProudHillbilly said!
Sit quietly in your corner??????
Eh, not to question your veracity but that would be akin to turning an aircraft carrier on a dime. Just saying.
Ammo? Oh for sure!
I’m loading brass just as fast as I can cast bullets. Pass the powder, please!!
YeOldFurt
Check your 9 o’clock. I’m in the other corner. Pass the popcorn.
Rev- I’ll scoot over…
Frank- good point, and gotta love those roofpreaders…
PH- True!!!
Keads- agree!
WSF- Maybe ‘somebody’ will believe it 🙂
YOF- Inbound!
DB- Catch! 🙂
Still stocking up here, too. Now that I have my “Zombie Zapper MKI” finished, I have another mouth to feed!
And this one just gobbles up 12ga sabot rounds as fast as I can stuff them in…..:-)
I have quite a few liberal friends, and it’s been quite a while since I’ve heard any of them talk about how smart Obama is.
The bloom is well off that rose.
Our country has become a sad live-action episode of South Park or something.
Snigs had a post up for your birthday…..I hope it was a Stirling Day for You, Shipmate!
Can I pick a corner, or do I have to lug all of this ammo to yours?
The Empty Suit makes me proud.
I keep the Cessna fueled up and ready to go, the ammo cabinet full and updated sectionals on board.
Not sure how much more of the madness we can take.
I’ll head out to our west Texas hideout and hole up.
Now I’m worried about November of next year. Seeing as what they did to Herman Cain. . . these sons of bitches will stop at nothing.
–AOA
Someone tell Obama that the car repair industry is doing VERY well, judging by my bill today.
With online Obanking, I thought I was keeping money out of EEEEEVILLLL Oil’s pockets and slowing Al Gore’s Man-Bear-Pig/Global Warming by not driving to the nearest bank/ATM….oh wait, ATMs are evil, nevermind that.
Hubby, you need to let me buy more ammo, okay? Otherwise I’m gonna pick a corner and go play with the big boys! (I offer my medical knowledge and ability to keep a place clean.)
“If you were a bank teller or a phone operator or a travel agent, you saw many in your profession replaced by ATMs and the internet…”
And if you were a buggy whip maker back in the early 1900s you saw many in your profession replaced by automobile workers. It’s called Progress.
“I’m just gonna buy more ammo, go sit in my little corner and be nice and quiet…”
Don’t forget the Shiners … 🙂
drjim- Yeah, cases of shotty ammo ARE a tad pricy…
BP- Concur, but the MSM and the talking heads refuse to believe it…
Andy- Probably the ‘best’ or worst analogy I’ve heard in a while. dammit…
ORPO- It was, it was quiet 🙂
Skip- Pick one! 🙂
AOA- Can’t disagree with that… I’m keeping at least 1/2 a tank in the truck at all times, and at least one BOB loaded at all times…
MM- You’re more than welcome, and since most of us are ex-military, we’re pretty good at picking up after ourselves!
Tim- Donations??? Kinda hard to get Shiners up here!
I wanna know how you found a corner…I just keep on bumping into these arced walls. >.<
Precious metal investment for the average man: COPPER JACKETED LEAD
Can you ever really have too much ammo?
Ammo? Check!
H2O? Check!
MREs? Check!
Bayonets sharpened? Check,check,check,check … OK, so I’ve lots of bayonets. Sometimes you gotta get in close and save ammo.
And here’s one for your list.

Read and then tell me I’m crazy for suggesting the current administration is angling to suspend the Nov. election due to civil unrest.
You know, we’ve spent the last 6 weeks putting together next year’s budget: prioritizing, cutting, re-prioritizing, cutting some more. Not done yet. There’s all sorts of things that we want to do that aren’t happening next year.
I don’t believe that any government Agency has done this. Quite frankly, I don’t see how a 10% across the board cut in every single agency – military included – can’t be the top priority. And any agency that cuts services gets new managers. Repeat until you have a set of managers who will get it done.
Of course, the idiots in the Lame Stream Media will shriek, but that just means that you need the daily “Government Waste” example, and then force the media to justify their support for that waste. After two months of this, not only would the American People be 100% behind the cuts, the media would shut up.
A wise man once said, “The Supreme Court reads the election returns.”
Lordy, you’re making me crazy, NFO.
Osawatomie? Seriously?!?
Doesn’t anyone in the WH know that US history began before the 20th Century?
Oh sure, there’s that whole Teddy R. progressive vibe but the phrase “Bleeding Kansas” must resonate with someone (anyone?) in the administration.
There ought to be a literacy test for RUNNING for office.
Snigs- Just make your own…
.45- ONLY If you’re on fire…
Stretch- Good ‘points’ 🙂 and I can’t really disagree with that article either…
BP- Ours was done in a week. Not fun, good things got killed, but WE do have to ‘live within our means’…
45er- Sorry, not my intent, but…
Stretch- Agreed!!!
