Susan G Komen Foundation Will Continue Enabling Planned Parenthood in the Murder of the Unborn

Yesterday I cheered the Susan G. Komen organization when they decided not to continue giving money to Planned Parenthood.  The left of center immediately went into hysterical vapors at the thought of a private company doing what it wanted with its own money. I listened to a liberal moron (redundant, I know)explain that they needed that money to pay for mammograms for poor people.
Of course, Planned Parenthood would have to stop suctioning as many babies from wombs if they didn't get this money.  And in addition to that, they would also not have the prestige of an organization like the Susan G. Komen Foundation associated with them.
Now I see that 76 Senators have sent a letter to the Foundation condemning the withdrawal of Planned Parenthood Support. God help them if I find out one of my Senators were involved in this.  Since when did  Private companies have to answer to how they choose to spend their money?  Every penny that Planned Parenthood gets to pay for other things is more money that they can spend on their main purpose- aborting babies.
After a calmer search, I found the politicians involved in this. Surprise, surprise, they all have a D behind their names.  They are as follows: Sens. Frank Lautenberg, D-N.J., Patty Murray, D-Was., Barbara Mikulski, D-Md., Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., Maria Cantwell, D-Wash., Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., Robert Menendez, D-N.J., Ron Wyden, D-Ore., Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn.,  Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H., Mark Begich, D-Alaska, Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., Jon Tester, D-Mont., Daniel Akaka, D-Hawaii, Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., Max Baucus, D-Mont., Ben Cardin, D-Md., Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., Al Franken, D-Minn, John Kerry, D-Mass., Claire McCaskill,D-MO., Debbie Stabenow, D-MI., Chris Coons, D-DE., and Jeff Bingaman D-NM.
The idea that politicians would get involved in a private matter of choice for a company is disgusting at best, frightening when you think about it.  What happens if my company donates to an organization, then I find out that I don't like them anymore?  Will  Congress then blackmail me into continuing to fund something I don't care for? If that doesn't scare you, it should! Find out if your Senators were part of the ones who signed on to blackmail The Susan G. Koman Foundation.  You'll thank me later.

This is Why People Hate Bureaucracy

I went to the Sheriff's web site for my town and looked at where the sex offenders live.  I like to know who my neighbors' are and who to keep my children away from.  Imagine my surprise when I found one on my corner.  Since I am less than half a mile from the YMCA, several playgrounds and a school, imagine my surprise.  It even posts a picture of the guy-thank you State of Indiana.
I then made a series of phone calls.  First stop: the useless police department in my town.  They passed me on to the Sheriff's department.  They in turn passed me on to the County Prosecutor's office.  Since no one is running for office this year, no one is available to answer my question.  I left messages.  I doubt that I will hear back before the next election cycle.
Why is he allowed to live across the street from a school bus stop?  For that matter, why don't they have to post signs to give me a heads up?  While I am sure that he has paid for his crime, paid his debt to society, blah blah, blah he spent twenty years in jail for this.  The least that they should do is put a sign up in his yard and maybe on his car, don't you think?
I believe that his right to privacy went out the window the second that he decided to harm a child.  Where are my elected officials on this one?  For that matter, why don't local papers publish this information somewhere in their pages.  If I can't get it on the internet, imagine how many more people it could reach in the paper?  I wish that there was a special place where they could live-away from the rest of us, and I wouldn't have to worry about my children or their safety when it comes to that sort of thing.  Oh well.
Keep your children safe, be aware of who is in your neighborhood.  And if you have the chance to go online in your area and see who is out there, trust me.  You'll thank me later.

A Christmas Miracle- Not Everything Sucks at Walmart!

      I had a wonderful conversation from a district manager at Papa John's Pizza.  I had called with some concerns because of a couple of bad experiences, but the conversation that I had with Steve not only reinforced my fondness for Papa John's and the things they do, it increased it.
     The gentlemen that I spoke with listened to my complaints and took very proactive measures to fix them.  Afterwards, when he has solved my problem, we were discussing customer service in general.  I told him about the time I had spent at the happiest retailer on earth.  Then he told me that he donated many many many pizzas to the Auburn, IN Walmart to serve to the associates there over Christmas blitz.  What a wonderful thing to do for the people that work there.
    As a Walmart survivor, I was amazed that such generosity still exists in the Walmart culture.  It warms my heart that there are still people who find ways to be generous these days.  To be sure, Papa John's got some goodwill for doing this.  The associates at that store and all of the others are being squeezed from every direction.  Walmart considers full time to be 36 hours for the regular folks.  Not of course, the lucky few who have fought their way to unsalaried management, those lucky souls get 39.5 hours.  Weehoo, book the cruise, right?
     It wasn't always this way.  When I first started at the happiest company on earth, the job was still pretty good. I got 10% off of general merchandise from the first day I started, the Christmas party was off store and the door prizes were wonderful.  The company picnic was actually great, and people liked their jobs. Full time was considered 40 hours, and they hadn't found a way to kill overtime yet.  Turn over was reasonable, raises were given and the world was much better in the Walmart way of life.
     Then all of the Walton's were no longer involved, a faceless corporation took over and the collective neck of the Walmart associate was stepped on.  Oh, mouth service was given to the open door policy, and the policy of having a yearly meeting (they call it grassroots)to discuss ways to improve the store was still in effect. But....
     The last few years that I still collected a check from Walmart there was a manager there who opened the meeting with, "If you think this is going to be an hour of just sitting here and complaining about what we need to fix, you are wrong."  Sets the tone for an open dialogue, doesn't it?
     But before I start the flow of Walmart complaints, let me close on the idea that there are still people who are trying to make working at Walmart a little less awful.  Thank you, Steve.  Thank you.

10,839> 4,487

   I have had many members of my family in the military.  I am proud of that.  At least three generations of my family have been involved in one branch or the other.  I am proud of them.  I am also very conservative in my opinions of most things, thankyouverymuchJimmyCarter.  I find myself gritting my teeth quite often when I listen to liberals.
     The adulterous, thieving idiot that I married came from a long line of adulterers and thieves.  Had I know the extent of it, I would have stopped at just dating him, but hindsight being twenty twenty, what can you do?  But back to the father of MY adulterous, thieving idiot-he loved to listen to Chris Mathews.  He liked to say that he gave both sides of the argument. Right....... and Ted Bundy was just helping out dark haired girls.  But one of the things that the father of my personal cross thought was that military service was awful.  He hated the Vietnam conflict and all things related to it.  From a distance I can see that he was only afraid of his sorry butt actually going more than five hundred miles from home, but that is a story for another day.
     He and many others talked about the loss of life in the Iraq war.  While he is no longer around to babble his anti war rants (kind of like Cindy Sheehan, huh?) I was curious about some statistics.  I saw that  4,487 troops died in the conflict.  That is an awful number, and I am truly sorry for the loss of each life.  I know what it feels like to hear the phone ring and hope that it isn't a chaplain.
     In the last year that I could find accurate statistics, 2009- 10,839 people died in alcohol related accidents.  It seems to me that if these folks are truly committed to less loss of life, they will all be signing up to take anti-alcohol pledges.  They will surely want to keep innocent people alive by making sure that alcohol is no longer available to fuel these awful tragedies.  Right?
    I mean, Cindy Sheehan will probably be dusted off and lifted from the mothball exile she has been forced into with the "election"of B.O.  Granted, there is already MADD in place, so she would have a harder time profiting from her son's death, but I think she could probably pull it off with the right amount of attention from the msm.  The same msm that ignored her like a leper once their boy (and no, I don't mean boy in any sort of racist way. I mean  boy as in untried, inexperienced,untested, immature) was in.
     We did good things in Iraq.  We removed a murderous monster and stopped the use of rape rooms, genocide, and all other manner of horrors. I am proud of my Dad, my brothers, my nephews, cousins, and everyone else who was willing to die for my safety.
     Thank you.  From the bottom of my heart, thank you very much.  And if you know one of those fleabagging occupiers who still scream hysterically that all wars are immoral and cause death, ask them how they feel about alcohol and illegal drug consumption.  You'll thank me later.

McCain Just Endorsed Romney (yeah, that'll help)

I held my nose and voted for McCain last time.  I was voting more for the veep choice that the top of the ticket, I am not very fond of RINOS.  I admire McCain's service for our country.  What he endured at the hands of the viet cong, I cannot even begin to comprehend.  But as a Republican Senator for the people of Arizona, he makes a pretty good liberal.

The only time that he came remotely close to right-of-center was when he had a bona fide Republican threatening to run last time.  I don't like him. He chose Sarah Palin as his running mate, but I file that under the idea that even a broken clock is right twice a day.  Have I mentioned that I don't like McCain all that much?

So imagine my joy when he threw his endorsement behind Mitt (for brains) Romney.  Talk about two peas in a pod.  Romney couldn't beat McCain for the nomination last time.  What does that say about him?  I want a fire breathing conservative, I don't care who it is.  I would kind of like to see Newt Gingrich get the nomination, if only because watching the debate between him and B.O. would be something like watching the Yankees take on a local beer belly league champion. It would be hilarious to watch the msm try to spin the pathetic pounding that B.O. would take as some sort of moral victory. Hil-ar-i-ous. But back to the endorsement.
Was there a long que of folks in line jockeying for the coveted McCain endorsement?  I can't imagine.  I can't imagine a long line forming for anything from McCain, other than his seat when he finally calls it quits.

 I hope that Newt Gingrich is the last man standing in this nomination.  Bachman lost me when she said that she was subservant to her husband.  That is great for a marriage, not so much for the President of the United States.  It's bad enough that B.O. cannot do anything without extensive polling first. He isn't perfect, but he's the best of the batch, in my opinion.  His indiscretions don't matter- that's what the msm told me when slick willie was tapping the help.  I can't imagine that they had an agenda and would be hypocritical about that now. Right?

So I'll go back to watching how this shakes out, I can't wait to see the moving van in front of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.  It will almost make up for having to support him for the rest of his marxist, useless life.  Oh well.  Get involved.  Get registered. Then get out there and vote.  You'll thank me later.

Working for my Money (Twice)

I think that the idea of making me volunteer in order to get my unemployment benefits that I paid for is a bunch of crap.  I have already paid into the system with my check, now the federal government wants me to volunteer  my time in order to get the money that is owed to me?
The very idea makes my blood pressure go up about seventy points.  If this is the best that the paid morons can do, it is more proof positive that we need a giant enema to flush out the current batch of government.
I have seen people work the system.  My father wasted eight years of his life (and three thousand of my dollars) on a person who would take volunteer lay off whenever she could get it.  The unemployment she received was only about thirty dollars less than her regular check, so she would rather stay home watching soap operas and eating cheesy poofs.  Yep she was a dandy.  As much as I didn't like that waste of oxygen, she HAD worked to pay into the unemployment to get the check.  I think the idea of putting another hoop at the end of the road is unfair.  Even to that.
The ideas have been floated around to have those people re-earn their money by painting bridges, clean up parks and other things.  Wouldn't that take the jobs away from other people who are already hired to do that?
How about this:Instead of trying to legislate morality ie forced volunteerism, why don't we remove the boot from the throat of small businesses and let us thrive so that we can go about the job of hiring people?
It's just crazy enough to work and best of all, it is one less bureaucracy.  Think about it, you'll thank me later.

Fast (not so much) and Furious (I'm getting there)

If anyone could explain to me why Eric Holder is still drawing a paycheck from the Federal Government, I would love to hear it.  He is belligerent, combative, and willfully ignorant at any given moment.  Yet B.O. is standing by him by not pressuring him to quit.  While I understand that they are both in this debacle up to their eyes, it would be great if perhaps the msm could put down their coffee and take a look see.
How many people have they promoted for keeping their mouth shut? How many people have they punished for having the temerity to rat out the one?
B.O. and Holder are both in this up to their felonious necks and the msm could not give a crap about it.  I promise you that if this had been an administration with an (R) behind their name, this would be the only bone these dogs could chew.
It angers me that I have to do so much work to find out real information.  The media have spent years telling me that they would take care of this for me, and now it seems that they are in the pocket of the very ones who are screwing me over.  So the mistreatment and malfeasance is okay if the media likes who is doing it?
And it looks as though that useless Janet Napolitano from Homeland Security knew about the felonious activity of the current administration as well.  There are memos that discuss the parties involved lying to Congress.  I thought you went to jail for that.
It is high time that an independent counsel is appointed to ferret out who all lied about this and how far up it goes.  I am a betting woman, I believe it will stop somewhere in the Oval Office.  If B.O. didn't know about this, he is grossly incompetent, as are the stooges that he put in charge of the whole mess.  I guess that makes Eric Holder- Larry, Ms. Napolitano- Curly, and Lanny Breuer would be Shemp, no doubt. That leaves the role of Moe to B.O. Anyone who doesn't think he is up to this all the way to the arrogant tilt of his head should check out the fine selection of bridges I have to sell.

" I'd be happy to give him [oral sex] just to thank him for keeping abortion legal." Nina Burleigh said that while working for Time Magazine.

These are the people that we trust to tell us what is going on in the world with the people we have hired to take care of things.  That scares me to death.  It's rather like having the crack addict watch over your things while you are away. You can trust them, riiiiiight.
So there are countless people who are dead or injured because of the attempt by the current administration to infringe on our Constitutional right to carry arms. Obama told Sarah Brady that there were things in the works and to be patient.  If George W. Bush had been a part of this, hysterical fools would be holding up bloody hands and fawning for the gullible media. 
There would be INTENSE scrutiny in the officers who had been forced to move to lesser assignments, punished in various ways for telling the truth.  Even though this is illegal, it goes on constantly with the current administration.You can find it, you just have to look beyond the msm and their party line.
Double check everything you are told by the msm.  You'll thank me later.

Merry Christmas or Up Yours- You Decide

     I hope that we all have a Merry Christmas.  I say that because I am a christian, and Christmas is what I celebrate.  I don't go in for all of the commercialism and constant selling of the Holiday.  I just like to celebrate the birth of a man who was willing to be crucified for me.  Some years back, my middle son asked me if we would make a birthday cake for Jesus.  I loved the idea of it, and I've been doing it ever since.  It is his birthday we are celebrating and the cake brings it home for my family.
     I can hear all of the atheists and what not.  I know that Jesus was most likely born some time in April or May.  I know that the Church decided to move Christmas to make it easier for sun worshipers to acclimate to the Holiday and convert to Christianity.  You know what?  I   don't   care.  If it brought them into a relationship with my savior, good on them.
     In recent years, the holiday had been hijacked by the politically correct.  When I worked at Walmart- I was told not to say "Merry Christmas" but rather "Happy Holidays." I guess some of those folks who are perpetually looking for something to complain about found something.  I will wish you a Happy Hanukkah if you celebrate that, or if you buy into the idea of Kwanzaa- okay, happy Kwanzaa.  It is rather like Festivus- but I'll wish you a happy one- just let me know.
     I laughed myself silly the first time I saw the episode of Seinfeld that mentioned Festivus.  I laughed even harder when I discovered the true roots of 'Kwanzaa'.  Politically correct? Probably not, but if the p c crowd ever do any digging, they may try to ban that episode, the way they banned the episode where Kramer's idiocy accidentally lit a Puerto Rican flag on fire.
     My Mother is an acerbic woman. She can be brutal at times, but often funny.  Several days ago, she told me that she is at the point of saying "Merry Christmas" or '**&@;!  You' , just tell her which one you want to hear.  I laughed for five minutes. I have to agree with her. It is a little blistering, but I think that it may be time to push back on this one.
     Tell me the other Holiday that has a tree.  Arbor Day does not count.  B.O. calling it a 'holiday tree' is the abject cowardice I would expect from a follower of Reverend Wright.  I think political correctness is one of the dumber things I contend with almost daily.
     I hate the politically correctness of Happy Holidays. Just tell me what you celebrate and I will wish a Happy One of those.  But don't ask my Mother about it, trust me.  You'll thank me later.

Tit for tat

So finally the SCOTUS is going to take a look at Obamacare and decide if the government can force me to purchase health insurance.  I have been curious about this for a while, because if they can force me to buy health insurance, can they make me stop buying Diet Coke, which I dearly love?  After all, if you give a lab rat the equivalent of 6 quarts of diet soda with aspartame every day for a long time, they will develop tumors.  While I think six quarts of anything everyday for extended periods is a bad idea, I'll try to stay on point.
How long until the government-which has always known what is best for me, just ask them-can decide other things that are important to me?
I have a car with T-tops.  They could be dangerous in an accident if I rolled over.  Will they be outlawed?  How about lard?  It isn't good for me at all, but the best biscuits in the world must have a combination of lard and buttermilk in order to be delicious.  Will the government ban my Dad's biscuit recipe?
How about smoking?  While B.O. claims to be tobacco free-he even released his physical to prove it-he is still working those nicotine lozenges pretty good.  You seem them in all of the "candid" photo ops that try to show how hard he works between junkets with the fam.
My point is, there are so many better ways to deal with the insurance problems.  Making insurance available to be sold across state lines would be a great way to raise the competition and lower the price.  See, competition is good.  When businesses have to compete for your money, they work harder and give you a better value.  If Obamacare is allowed to stand, the competition will eventually be wiped out until the only thing left is the government insurance and ask Canada and Great Britain how that socialized medicine thing is working out for them.  Long waits, people dying before they are properly seen, sounds great doesn't it?  That's what's in store if this crap isn't repealed.
But to get back on point-the Obama appointee Kagan worked for the government when Obamacare was being foisted on us.  She helped to defend this socialized crap when she worked for the Department of Justice.  She was never fully vetted(she has a vagina,she is a liberal, what more do they need) and now she is going to make a decision on the very thing she said was legal in the first place?  Sounds like she gets to judge the pies at the county fair after making one for the contest, doesn't it?   I wonder how she will decide, don't you?
On the other hand is one of my favorite judges- Clarence Thomas.  Or as I have come to think of him, the 80's version of Herman Cain.  The biased main stream media have hated his guts for years.  They found a woman to accuse him of something that may or may not have happened ten years prior.(Sound familiar?) While the alleged action was disgusting- if it did in fact happen- why would you wait 10 years to complain about it? 
Anyway, Judge Thomas's wife doesn't like Obamacare and has said so publicly.  Yes, you read that right- his wife doesn't like the bill.  So apparently, Judge Thomas is so swayed by his wife's charms, that he would be unable to render a fair decision. Crap, I couldn't get my useless ex husband to be faithful and not steal his children's college funds, how do they expect Mrs. Thomas to be able to influence a Supreme Court Judge?
So on one side-helped to decide if the law would be legal; on the other side has a spouse that doesn't like it.  Oh, yeah, that seems the same,what do you think?
I hope the individual mandate is shot down.  I am scared to think of what all the government would force me to buy-or not buy- if they could.
John Adams said, "Liberty once lost, is lost forever."  Think about it.  You'll thank me later.

Tell me What Racism Looks Like Again

Racism in any form is disgusting to me.  Those that cling to it lack some sort of chromosome, perhaps the compassion gene.  I do hope that you will consider the political affiliation of those spewing the following hatred. 
I have seen racism my whole life.  It has gone both ways, I have seen some very ugly things from all races, and it saddens me.  I was married to a moron whose Father dropped the N word like nobodies business.  He thought it was okay, what can I say, he never got out much.  He also had a lot of friends that were pedophiles, but that's a story for another time.  I was looking around the internet (thanks algore) and found some of these gems.  The media-such as it is-has largely ignored these little bon mots.   I wonder why that is unless they have an agenda.  Think about the incredible ugliness that is in these words, they take my breath away.  Practice tolerance.  You'll thank me later.
“Let’s not even deal with the facts right now. Let’s deal with just our blackness and pride — and loyalty,” Joyner wrote on hisBlackAmericaWeb.com blog. “We have the chance to re-elect the first African-American president, and that’s what we ought to be doing. And I’m not afraid or ashamed to say that as black people, we should do it because he’s a black man.”

"The government gives them the drugs, builds bigger prisons, passes a three-strike law and then wants us to sing 'God Bless America.' No, no, no, God damn America, that's in the Bible for killing innocent people. ... God damn America for treating our citizens as less than human. God damn America for as long as she acts like she is God and she is supreme." ... "We bombed Hiroshima, we bombed Nagasaki, and we nuked far more than the thousands in New York and the Pentagon, and we never batted an eye." ... "We have supported state terrorism against the Palestinians and black South Africans, and now we are indignant because the stuff we have done overseas is now brought right back to our own front yards. America's chickens are coming home to roost." ... "We started the AIDS virus ... as a means of genocide against people of color." --Barack Obama's pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, in various sermons

"For the first time in my adult lifetime I am really proud of my country. And not just because Barack has done well, but because I think people are hungry for change." --Michelle Obama

"And it's not surprising then that they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations," Obama said
