Pretender in Chief

Today is Memorial Day. It is the day we remember the members of our military that have fought and died for our freedoms. At least that's what it's supposed to mean. To some it probably means the community pool opens, to others it's another three day weekend. Which is too bad.

We as Americas need to remember these fine people that have fought our country's battles against tyranny, oppression and now jihad. It started with, at the very least, the five people killed in the Boston Massacre before the start of the Revolutionary War. It continues today with the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Since the country's first war through today more than 1 million people have died in combat. We as a people have benefited form the valor of these people. Shame on those who cannot appreciate this fact.

This would include our current president. Today at the Tomb of the Unknown it wasn't Barry that laid the wreath. Today it was Bobblehead Joe. That's the Vice President. It seems that Barack Hussein Obama, mmm, mmm, mmm, couldn't be bothered to do what other presidents have done before him. No, not the One. He was on yet another vacation. Now I realize that the guy has a job with a bit of potential stress, but come on. How many days of vacation does he get a year?

I don't know what irritates me more about this guy. He has spent the last 18 months bowing to foreign leaders, apologizing for America's past, trying to fundamentally change this country and allowing the President of Mexico to come into the halls of Congress to badmouth America while his far left base applauds. For all of these reasons and more I firmly believe that this man is unqualified to be president and he might even be borderline seditious. I realize that sedition requires a bit more, but his actions are certainly un-American.

Sending Bubblehead Joe, oops, I mean Bobblehead Joe is the final straw for me. As of now I have to concede the fact that Barry O is a hypocrite. To some that is a fancy word for liar, but I'm trying to be civil. Barry says that he is concerned for the safety of this nation and is a supporter of the military. BS, he absence today at Arlington is a slap in the face to all that have served and especially to those that have died.

He is nothing more than a pretender.

Let Me See Your Papers

This is how the left reacts to the new Arizona law confronting illegal immigration. I wonder how many have read the law. I tried finding it on the Internet and was unsuccessful. Probably because I'm a computer idiot, but I digress. I would bet a substantial amount of money that if any politician in Washington wanted to read the law that they could get a copy.

Today I heard what had to be the most disturbing thing associated with this new legislation. It seems that Aunty M was in Silver Springs Md. doing whatever it is that first ladies do and a comment was made by what had to be a 6-7 year old girl who said that her mother tells her that Barry is getting rid of the people that don't have papers. To which Aunty M replies that this is something that Congress needs to work on. To make sure that everybody has the right papers so they can stay.

Once again the uber-left is using children as marketers. This is designed to tear at out hearts because this little girl is so concerned that people are being sent out of the country because the Nazi-esque Arizona Governor Jan Brewer is fed up with illegals coming into her state. And of course any of us that think this is anything but a planted question should have their heads examined.

I like the idea of Gov. Brewer forcing the hand of the federal government. For too long the border has been a sieve and stopping anyone from coming in has been almost impossible. I'm not just slamming Barry and his ilk, I mean that the federal government hasn't done a damn thing in my lifetime that amounts to much. So now Gov. Brewer is showing some back bone and making Washington pay attention.

Attorney Pretender Holder and Homeland Security Czar Janet Incompetano both admit to not having read the bill and blast it for being racist and unfair. How does one do that? I realize that is the position of their boss, who thinks that law is "irresponsible" but they could at least read it before making stupid comments.

Isn't it the job of these two to keep our borders safe and then prosecute those that invade our country? I think it is and these two are completely incapable of doing their jobs. Holder is not cut out for his job and Incompetano looks like she's in over her head.

Somebody let me know where I can find the bill online and we can read it together. Then we can have an open discussion about what the bill contains and how it might adversely effect the folks. Until then get your mouths shut and quit calling for boycotts of Arizona.

Jan Brewer for President 2012.

Obama the Dictator

This is what actor/director/comedian/pervert Woody Allen wants. He was quoted in a Spanish language newspaper, La Vanguardia as saying, "it would be good....if he could be dictator for a few years he could a lot of good things quickly." WTF! Now I know that Woody has totally lost it. If making awful movies for years wasn't enough, he is now willing to give up every bit of freedom he and the rest of us have just so Obama can push his socialist agenda through.

I don't know why I even pay attention to this guy. Wasn't he taking lewd pictures of his now wife/then step-daughter when she was only 17? I think that's called sexual exploitation of a minor. Or maybe even kiddie porn. So who the hell is he to tell anyone how to run our political system?

Besides let's take a look at some of the dictatorial systems through time, shall we? How about the Chinese for starters? How many folks has the Chinese government killed? And I am talking about just Chinese. 10 million? 20 million? The number may never be known because getting accurate information from China is about impossible, but I bet the number is incredible. Isn't this the country with the worst record on human rights ever? I think so and Woody wants to be like the Chinese. Great.

As far as this and other dictatorial regimes go if I remember correctly they also stifle things such as free speech, individuality, capitalism and a point of view different from the government. Meaning a guy like me could get thrown in jail or even shot for writing this blog. We are well on our way as it is so why would we want to go past the point of no return? True Americans don't want to go there.

Woody Allen is an idiot along with everything else. If he wants this country to become Europe he is out of luck. I think with a comment such as this one Woody should be shipped of to the poorest country in the world, without access to his bank account of course, and be forced to live there for a few years before being allowed back into the place that made his fortune and allows him to act the fool that he is.

Isn't Soon-Yi from Korea? Maybe they could move there.

I hear Pyongyang is beautiful this time of year.

You Can't Have My Cheeseburger

That's what I'm telling the Food Police when they come to my door. They can have my junk food when they pry it from my cold dead fingers. Provided I die while eating of course. Why do I care about this? Allow me to explain. Last week Rep. Ron Kind (D-WI), there's a surprise, introduced the Healthy Choices Act aimed at getting Americans, and maybe even a few illegal aliens, to eat healthier.

It seems someone forgot to tell Barry this was happening. Just like our Pres. I enjoy chicken wings, french fries and onion rings, but I wont eat them and then tell you not to. Barry may eat all the right things according to Aunty M at the White House, but when he gets out on his own he seems to just order regular ol' guy food. It's his cholesterol, let him eat what he wants, I really don't care. I just wish he wasn't such a hypocrite. What with the Health Care Bill and Aunty M's crusade against childhood obesity.

Of course as I type this I'm picking at a bag of Harry and David's milk chocolate mix moose munch. It's delightful. Yes it's high in calories, sugar and fat and I'm enjoying every bite. I know it's bad for me, yet still I eat it. I will do a few extra miles on the bike tomorrow. Promise. Do I really need the federal government to tell me what I already know? I don't think so.

One of the things that Rep. Kind's bill does is eliminate direct advertising to children by getting rid of characters that appeal to them. Icons like Tony the Tiger, Ronald McDonald and the Trix rabbit could all go the way of all flesh and just disappear from view. It's sad really. I ate Frosted Flakes, Big Macs and Trix well into my 30's or even my early 40's. I've always been a little husky, but never considered fat. Once I got a little older I changed my ways because I wanted to not necessarily because I had to. As an adult I should be able to make my own decisions.

As far as kids go parents should be more involved with the choices they make. Sometimes going to a fast food joint is a reward or done out of expedience or just maybe Mom doesn't know how to cook and rather than hear about it, goes to McDonald's. I don't agree that kids should eat this stuff all the time. It is high in fat and calories and isn't good for you, but again the feds shouldn't be the ones to tell parents that. Be a freakin' parent and make the kids eat some veggies once in a while!

But the thing that really gets my blood to boiling is the fact that doctors will be mandated to take a body mass index of all children between the ages of 2 and 17 years of age. WTF! Who the hell do they think they are? Plus the information would be collected and shared with the feds. It all sounds a bit big brother-ish to me. If a kids appears to be a bit on the pudgy side, the doctor and parents should be the ones to figure out a course of action, not Big Brother in DC. Period.

Aunty M needs something to do as first lady and this is her cause-du-jour. Good for her, I wish her nothing but success.

Just leave me and my cheeseburgers alone.

Radical Islamist?

I think that we can most assuredly say that the wacko, Fasil Shazad, is a radical Islamist. Will Barry call him that? I doubt it. But what else would you call someone that puts cans of gas, propane cylinders and fireworks in a car and parks it in the middle of Time Square? Thank goodness that Shazad doesn't know how to set an alarm clock.

I'm quite sure that as soon as Shazad was arrested today he was given his Miranda warnings. I've heard that he has admitted his culpability and is insistent that he worked alone. That I doubt as well, but he is trying to be a stand up guy and not giving up his counterparts. I have nothing but my opinion to back up that last statement.

I have also heard on the news today that Attorney Pretender Holder has a laundry list of charges ready to file against Shazad. When did he get a spine? I don't think that he has but has to look tough for the moment. Once the initial shock of this blows over, AP Holder will offer some sweetheart deal so Shazad only gets 15-20 years in prison. Naturally I think that the death penalty is appropriate here. At the very least, life with no parole should be the sentence once he is convicted.

If he only gets prison time it will be hard to deport Shazad since he is an American citizen and a registered Democrat, but we should try. One less radical Islamist and democrat in this country would be a good thing. Wouldn't it? I think it would.

It's too bad for Constance Brewer and Micheal Bloomberg that Shazad is a Pakistani by birth. I know both were hoping that he was a conservative member of the Tea Party, but alas he is a member of your own party. Come on, no one and I mean no one believes that Bloomberg is a Republican. He changed parties so he wouldn't have to face a tough primary. Plus didn't he spend about $100,000,000 of his own money in the last mayoral race?

Brewer said that she was disappointed that Shazad had ties to a Muslim country and Bloomberg thought it was someone that was a conservative that was upset about the Health Care bill. Hah! If Bloomy would pay closer attention it is usually the left the resorts to violence when it protests whatever is upsetting them this week.

I wonder if the SUV had an Obama sticker on it.
