It said five degrees on the thermometer when I let the pooch out to do her business at 6:30 this morning. However with the slight wind that was blowing it was most certainly below zero I surmised as I peered through the sliding glass door. She sure didn’t need much convincing to hurry up and get the job done and get back inside the 55 degree house. In my bid to show the green weenies we all care about the environment I decided to do my part to save the planet this winter and refrain from using my 98% efficient central heating unit. No doubt I saved someone or something somewhere because of my sacrifices or at least I will do what all of these global warming alarmists do and convince myself I have.

Anyone else out there amazed at all of the news concerning the weather? Word has it virtually all of Canada is expecting a white Christmas for the first time since 1971. We have Beijing recording its coldest day in 57 years. Wind chill adjusted temperatures dropped to 30 below zero in Chicago and ten below in New York City.

The midwest is getting hammered with sleet, ice and freezing rain while Seattle digs out from eight to 12 inches of snow. It even snowed in Malibu California! Are you kidding me?! Al Gore, can we get some answers here as to what the hell is going on? I mean you are the climate expert right?

The Alaska State Officers Compensation Commission has recommended raises for many state office holders including Governor Sarah Palin. The proposed increase would raise the governor’s salary from $125,000 a year to $150,000. Ktuu.com reports,

Palin spokesman Bill McAllister said Wednesday that if the Legislature submits legislation for a raise, Palin will not accept the money.

Instead, if the raise is approved, she will subtract the difference from her current salary and donate it to charity or find a way to redirect the funds for the benefit of others, McAllister said.

Of course the liberal pinheads will call this a political stunt apparently ignorant to the fact she is not running for any office and still retains one of the highest if not the highest governor approval ratings in the nation. Mean while their guy in Illinois, Blagojevich, is still twisting in the wind over his federal corruption complain, their guy in New York just jacked taxes through the roof, their gal in Michigan has an unemployment rate damn near 50% higher than the national average, their guy in California has screwed that place up so bad they may never get out of the hole (yes I will call Schwarzenegger a liberal…he blames Republicans for CA’s financial mess when it is clearly the fault of the majority Democrats and has been for years and he thinks the gay rights supporters should take their case to the Supreme Court since they failed at the ballot box yet again. This guy is a Republican like Michael Bloomberg is a Republican….NOT!) and so on and on and on.

Funny how the enviro-weenies had to swap out their beloved “global warming” moniker for the more abstract “climate change” when record cold spells began to take place earlier than they ever had in years all over the world. Of course the climate changes! Let’s see we go from winter to spring, from spring to summer, from summer to fall then back to winter. See how simple that was?

Now wouldn’t that be a great thing to see, Al Gore getting his fat ass dragged into court and having the chance to explain this “climate change” nonsense, under oath, that he has been perpetuating all over the planet for the last several years. And here we thought those wacky Nigerians were really really good with their multi million dollar scams.

Like the saying goes… follow the money and boy does Al Gore have plenty of that. His Oscar winning but factually lacking docu-“thing” “An Inconvenient Truth,” a Nobel Peace Prize (two rewards from the lefty lunatic fringe) and some private market ventures including a cable TV channel have generated some serious bank for big Al and it’s a damn good thing too!

Lighten up gov’ner, it’s just harmless fun. You know like when the bunch of clowns over at SNL mercilessly hammered away at Sarah Palin? Isn’t it interesting when a Democrat gets slapped around on a comedy show how the whiners for whatever advocacy group able to claim injury come out of the woodwork? For those that don’t know Paterson he is the guy that took over in the state of New York after the previous governor, Eliot Spitzer, was caught doinkin’ a high priced call girl young enough to be his daughter.

Paterson, no stranger to instances of fooling around on his wife, was evidently a little bit upset over the little skit performed by the SNL crew and spoke out about it along with others that were offended by what they claimed was a mocking of blind people.

Wait just a minute here I thought the liberals despised the big greedy corporations in this country? You know like GM, Chrysler and Ford. Those nasty evil corporations that plunder the environment of raw materials to build stuff, turn an insanely huge profit on the backs of struggling workers barely getting by on low pay and anemic fringe benefits all the while lining the pockets of all those rich and rascally Republicans.

The liberals and domestic autoworker union members are bellyaching all over the place about the Senate voting down the automaker bailout bill and of course blaming the Republicans for its demise. (While these union people lash out only at the Republicans that voted against the bill and not the Democratic senators that were opposed to it they fail to mention their union gave $1.9 million to Democrats but only $11,500 to Republicans in the 2008 election cycle.) In actuality if the Democrats that voted NO and the ones that didn’t vote at all would have stepped up, including Harry Reid the Senate majority leader, and all voted YES it would have been a done dealeo since at least 10 Republicans voted against the wishes of the American people and followed the herd for passage of this abomination.

In what comes as no real surprise to anyone that has spent more than an hour researching what information was available concerning his background Barack Hussein Obama has declared he will be sworn into office as president using his entire name. Throughout the presidential campaign his handlers made sure to quickly attack and disparage anyone using Obama’s middle name of Hussein calling them racist and “hateful.” This is the first recorded instance in the history of this country when a candidate for the highest office in the land appeared to be ashamed or at the very least defensive about the name given to him by his birth parents that I can find.

I’m sure Lee County Florida Sheriff Mike Scott is breathing a huge sigh of relief over this latest development. Many may remember the sheriff referred to Obama as “Barack Hussein Obama” at a Sarah Palin campaign appearance which the Republican presidential candidate John McLame quickly denounced as an untoward attempt by Scott to actually call his opponent by his real name or something like that. Good call there Juan.

“Ladies and gentleman, there are three types of people in our country today. There are people that make things happen, there are people that watch things, and there are people who wonder what happened. On November 4, let’s leave Barack Hussein Obama wondering what happened,” said Sheriff Scott to the crowd at Germain Arena Monday afternoon.

Those comments didn’t go over well with the McCain Campaign, but Sheriff Scott says he meant no harm by his remarks.

“Apparently there are a lot of people inferring something from his name, I don’t know. My name is Joseph. I don’t know what you would infer from that. Am I Joseph in the stable with Mary? What do you take from that? I don’t know,” said Sheriff Scott.

The McCain Campaign sent out the following statement in response after the remarks were made:

“We do not condone this inappropriate rhetoric which distracts from the real questions of judgment, character, and experience that voters will base their decisions on this November.”

The Obama Campaign also sent out a response of its own.

“It’s an implication that whoever has a Muslim-sounding name is Muslim, but the fact of the matter is he’s Christian and always has been. It sounds like the tone of today’s rally was based on negative attacks and fear tactics.”

Oh well, McLame really wasn’t in the game to win anyway as we came to find out

While Obama continues to lie to the American people concerning his record on Second Amendment issues the good citizens of this country are going gonzo snatching up firearms and ammo like hell won’t have it. Now why would these folks be doing such a thing after all we do have the Constitution, we do have rights under such and our elected officials are sworn to uphold them so what’s the fuss? Why the panic buying?

Many popular (and super scary looking to the liberals) self loading centerfire rifles are virtually impossible to locate for purchase and the few that are on the market are commanding a premium price. Firearm merchants all over the country have substantial backorder for these particular types of weapons due to demand far outstripping supply. Bulk ammunition for purchase is becoming increasingly difficult to find with many retailers out of stock and with certain calibers the opportunity to resupply their inventory could be months away. What the heck is going on and why are so many people concerned about the availability of and the ability to buy firearms and ammo in the future?

just a regular guy was thinking….

I often wonder why some teachers do the dumbest things which they must clearly know will result in legal action against their school district. I’m almost to the point where I think it just may be intentional in some cases.

It seems eighth grade social studies teacher Eileen Bernstein, a white lady who works out of Haverstraw Middle School in Haverstraw New York, thought it would be a great idea to take a couple of black kids in her class and show them just what it was like to be a slave some 150 years ago. It’s hard to know where to begin with this one other than to say you just know this teacher has probably pulled similar stunts like this in the past with her students and has finally been called on one.

In this day and age where information must be provided to adults at a seventh grade reading level because a large part of the population cannot grasp and comprehend anything deeper than that we continue to have these people in charge of our children’s education pushing the dumbed down emotion based liberal agenda in the classrooms throughout the land.

You guys have your man at the top of the heap and a Congress firmly in the grip of some seriously liberal partisan hacks. Blaming Obama’s failures, missteps, screwups and boondoggles on Bush will only last for a short period of time so go ahead and get all of that nonsense over with quickly kids, even your own people won’t be putting up with that happy horsecrap for long. Us? We’re gonna be right there giving your guy the same treatment you’ve given our side for the last eight years….every step of the way.

The CEOs for the Big Three automakers are getting ready to re-pitch their hopes for a taxpayer bailout to the world’s largest piggy bank, also known as our U.S. Congress, throughout this week. When these guys showed up with their tin cups and pet monkeys last month they ran into a bit of criticism by those holding the purse strings for having the audacity of arriving in Washington via private jets. Keep in mind those doing the hand slapping and finger pointing are the same folks that spent 621 million dollars (nearly nine times the original budget) on the brand spanking new Capitol Visitors Center so our esteemed Congressional representatives don’t have to smell stinky tourist who stop by to see how our government “works.”

When the CEOs first came to Washington looking to snag a nice round 25 billion dollar share of taxpayer money giveaways they were astonished to find out that a few people wanted to know what their game plan was to turn things around in their businesses so this chunk of change they were asking for wouldn’t simply go *poof*. “Ah, what? A game plan? Gee we didn’t think of bringing that!”
