Planned Parenthood Killed my Girl Scout Cookies

I love those coconut caramel cookies that Girl Scouts sell.  In a normal year, I would buy a case and stock up my freezer.  This is not a normal year,  The powers that be have decided to affiliate Girl Scouts with the number one abortion provider in the United States.  Man o man, am I going to miss those cookies.  Not enough to abide the abortionists, but if you have a recipe, feel free to send it to me.  What exactly are they trying to teach young girls anyway?  That if you get pregnant it's not a worry, just suction that baby out of your womb?
There was a time when the Boy Scouts said that their values were not for sale.  I guess the homosexuals raised their offer.  Luckily, there is a new group-Trail Life- who teaches the values that I want my sons to have. There are no homosexuals teaching these impressionable children.  I don't worry when my sons are at a meeting.
Now we have the Girl Scouts trying to shape young minds into vibrant cogs in the liberal machine.  Never mind the idea of teaching young girls to be moral, God fearing good citizens.  Nope.  It's more important to teach that that a pregnancy is only an inconvenience, a trifle to be disposed of at will.
Who are these people?  What in the world is wrong with them?  Have they absolutely lost their idea of right and wrong?
As much as I like,  love, adore those cookies- it is not worth it to know that my purchase enabled a little girl to have access to sponsors like planned parenthood.
That organization was founded by Margaret Sanger.  Her plan was to make abortions more readily available to minorities.  She didn't like black people, and her thought was that if blacks were encouraged to abort their children for a host of reasons, then there would be less black people.  Boy, was she right.  Not too long ago, more black babies were aborted in New York City than were born. How sad.
Why is it that so many cherished organizations are under attack these days?  Is common decency dead?  Who thinks that have the biggest abortion provider in the country be a sponsor for young girls is a good idea?  We are on such a slippery slope, that sometimes I am scared to death for my children and their children some day.  I hate to think of what the world we are leaving them might be like.
In a way, I am angry.  So many things that I used to enjoy are being corrupted by immorality.  Sam Addams makes an awesome beer.  For off the shelf, non micro brewery, it is outstanding.  But they chose to support a group of homosexuals who wanted to ruin a Saint Patrick's day parade, and bingo! I am now a micro brewer beer enthusiast. Pity.
So with regret I have turned away every fresh faced sales pitch.  I love those cookies.  But every baby deserves a chance to be born.  Think about it, you'll thank me later.

The IRS is Still Obama's Bag Man




Apparently you have to be able to hold that arrogant pose if you're going to work in this administration.  Whenever I see this pose, I just want to break out a cast iron skillet.  On the left we have the person who ran the latest Obama debacle, or the solyndra of health care.  She had billions with a b and all of the resources of the free world, to make up a health care system and she has successfully helped sign up almost six million people.*
 To put that in perspective, we have over 250 million people in our country.  Now, .41 % of them have insurance through this socialistic debacle known as obamacare.  Isn't it funny that when it was going to be all sunshine and roses, they loved  calling it obamacare.  Now, it is almost always called ACA by those wishing to distance themselves from the hot mess that it is.
In the middle, the man who needs no introduction, he is single handedly responsible for racking up more debt in 6 years than our entire history before him.  And what do we have to show for it?  Record fuel prices.  Record food prices.  Inflation. Everywhere you look, Carter is looking less God awful.
Finally, on the right, we have a woman who targeted the Tea Party groups who were looking for tax exempt status to organize their groups.  Of course.
The last time she was in front of Congress she pleaded the fifth (the right not to testify and incriminate yourself) and then testified.  I look forward to her next hearing.  I will be curious to see if the Congressmen and women allow her to get away with it.  My money says no.  Especially now that it has come to light that the majority of what she has disseminated to the public has been a big fat lie.  
Didn't Nixon get impeached for something like this? Why, I believe he did.  I also believe that the leadership gavel will come out of Harry Reid's antique, dusty fist this November.  Hopefully, we won't have to listen to anymore of his whispering slanderous ( but safe from prosecution while on the senate floor) speeches after that.  With any luck, he will retire in a huff.
The Internal Revenue Service abuse was one of the more serious charges against Nixon.  He could have probably skated around the others, but using an office of the government as an attack dog is just wrong.  He went out in disgrace, and rightly so.
There have been opinions that B.O. won't be impeached because he is the first black person in the oval office.  If that were true, it would sadden me.  Mostly, because it would mean we have capitulated to political correctness, and given up on freedom.
Think about it, you'll thank me later.
* the latest numbers that are reliable now put sign ups at five million, and people who have paid a premium puts it less than that.

MSM Kneecapping the Potentials or When Did They Start Caring About a Politician's Background?

I think you have to be very masochistic to want to run for public office these days.  Not only are you running on the ideas that you have for the future, (unless you are Obama-then just run because you look black) but you are also running with every dumb thing you have ever said, and every dumb thing you have ever done.  Can you imagine what it would be like to run for office knowing every keg stand, every drunken text, every stupid, spur of the moment thing you ever did was out there waiting to bite you on the butt?
 Unless you are the current guy, the media goes after you like pitbulls after beef steak.  For example- Chris Christie- who doesn't have a pig's chance at a lou auh of getting my vote, is being decimated by the same adoring media types who praised his no nonsense attitude and heaped accolades on him for helping B.O. to look less incompetent.  Now, they believe he is guilty of the most heinous of crimes-traffic jams on purpose.  Oh the humanity.
Governor Palin was ripped to shreds by the media types who would ordinarily fall at her feet because she has a vagina.  I guess the (R) beside her name cancelled out her hoo hah.  Plus, horror of horrors- she has a special needs child and she didn't abort him.  Not to mention she has a daughter who got pregnant while not being married.  Kind of ironic to listen to hollywood types try to make it sound like she was horrible while still holding Angelina Jolie up as a role model, isn't it?  I'm pretty sure that the idiot she had unprotected sex with wasn't married at the time. Ahem.
But back to the background checks on every living moment a conservative candidate has until he is elected.  I don't care if Christie told people to cause traffic jams or if he didn't.  I don't care if he made and delivered a nasty email to someone that hurt their feelings.  I do care that he had the opportunity to send a conservative to the senate and he wussed out on it.  He is a Republican in name only, in spite of what Ann Coulter says.
Ted Cruz has blue eyes. Harry Reid actually questioned  his ethnicity because of them.  Can you imagine if a conservative had said that Obama didn't really look black enough?  O my Goodness!  The gods of political correctness would have swooped down and carried that person away.  They would have been linked to the Klan faster than you can say-those Obama's sure have some ugly kids.
Do you remember when Governor Romney said that Russia would invade the Ukraine?  B.O.'s look of derision was priceless.  The media jumped into the fray and made it seem as though Romney were just an out of touch rich guy, which, coincidentally, was the theme they were pushing about him.  Now, who is the idiot?  Oh wait, the 109% that voted for Obama, right?
Rand Paul is another bright man that is giving the media fits.  He alone caused the government shutdown (according to them) because he just didn't want the people to get the wonderful, generous, fabulous benefits of obamacare also known as the law of the land.
Well now that obamacare has turned out to be the very turd sandwich that conservatives had been warning about, who is to blame?  It looks like Sebellius is going to be the latest chick thrown under the bus by team Obama.  Who saw that coming?  Will there be an apology from the media types who were not just wrong, but stupidly wrong?  Don't hold your breath.
Who ever the next president is, they will have their work cut out for them.  Barrak Hussein Obama has completely cartered the country.  It will take someone the likes of President Reagan to undo the damage.  And he or she will have to do it without the adoring eyes of the media helping him or her every step of the way.
  I am tired of the media trying to be the third man.  Just report the facts.  All of the facts, not the ones that tell the story you want told, please.
Question your media sources.  You'll thank me later.

When Did We Start Naming Every Storm we Get?

I am writing this post in February.  I have survived through November, December, and January.  It hasn't been pretty.  First there was cold.  Then there was bitter cold, and now we have the ice and the snow.  My God, the snow.
I hate where I live and I am not crazy about a lot of these people- I know the cold makes them crazy.  But whenever I have to watch the Weather Channel or as I have come to think of it- All Global Warming, All the Time!-I am forced to listen to incredibly attractive people explain what Magnum, or Ivan or something or other is doing.
Are we so starved for things to hold our attention that we need to name every single one of these storms? Really?  Where I am, they still discuss the blizzard of '78 with reverent tones.  It doesn't have a name- it has a condition-blizzard- and a year-1978.  Most folks with a functioning I Q understand the storm in question.
Is it a rating things?  Will Goodyear and other products begin lining up to sponsor this mess?
If it is snowing, the accumulation is edging past five inches and the wind is blowing, do we really need a name for this?? Won't hey remember that crappy year it wouldn't stop snowing be enough to ring a bell?
I understand, the Weather Channel has to remain relevant.   The novelty of having a go to channel to always get the weather report is gone.  Of course, that might have something to do with always getting the latest update on the drought in Singapore- when all I want to do is figure out if I need to grab an umbrella on the way to work.
How about if we make things easy?  Instead of  'honoring' every relative by naming a storm after them- how about we name storms like this: Month, Year.  If there is more than one storm in a month, we toss in the week.  It's just crazy enough to work.  Of course-if they follow my advice- we'll never have winter storm Tiffany or better yet winter storm Shaniqua.  Both of which would make me giggle.
I wish that we could take a step back and get over ourselves.  Think about it, you'll thank me later.

Subway and the Yeti-or why I Won't Be Eating at Subway Anytime Soon

Michelle Obama knows better than I do what my children should eat in their lunch.  Just ask her.  Of course, she doesn't know how to keep a law license, but that's a story for another blog.
Subway makes a decent sandwich. For five dollars, you can be full for a few hours, or at least you could.  Mrs. Soetoro-Obama has decided that she knows better than I do what I should be eating and what I should be feeding my children.  Bless her heart.   Maybe she got that information while she was vacationing for three weeks in Hawaii over Christmas.
Maybe she got that information while she was looking at the garden she put in the White House yard.  The garden she claims cost about $180 to install.  The garden that is tended by government workers who are making $25 an hour if they are making a nickel.  The same government that pays $650 for a hammer is telling me that they bought a rototiller, organic seeds, organic dirt, organic fertilizer, and the staff of two for $180.  That photo oppropaganda piece, ruined piece of White House lawn must have easily cost a lot more. Some quick research: organic seeds for this photo op would have cost about $270 dollars for ten different types of seeds most common to a garden. A rototiller at Target (where she loves to be "caught" shopping-just like folks) is going to set us back $180.00  The labor to install this garden, including the photographer to catch this wholesome slice of Americana is at the very least 42K per year. That is using the website from the "most transparent administration ever" not counting Benghazi, Solyndra, the IRS targeting of conservative groups, or why exactly there was no extra security in Benghazi after the request, or the Members of the Muslim Brotherhood, etc. etc.
When I figured out the very least the labor cost, it was $1350 dollars.  So by my math, we are up to  $1800.   As anyone who has ever really put in a garden knows, just putting the garden in is only the start of the labor.  Figure that labor cost to be closer to 13,500, because if she had ever stepped another foot near her photo op, it would have been all over the news channels.
So unless she pulled out some miracle beans from this garden- every tomato that came out of there cost us about $73.00 each.
If Subway needed the money from the government teat that badly, maybe they should have stuck with those $5 sandwiches.  That was doing pretty well for them.  So was showing all of the people who had lost weight with their food.  But goose stepping with the yeti?  I'm going to miss that asiago bread, but I guess I'll live.  Think about it, you'll thank me later.
