Does This Person Look Disabled to You?

I read with no surprise that the number of people filing for Social Security disability was greater than the number of  people filing for unemployment last month.  I guess when you have been unemployed for 99 weeks and still have no job after almost two years, you have to do something, right?
I see people in my store every day that are on disability. How do I know? They tell me.  They aren't using anything to help them walk.  They don't limp.  They are either able to walk up or drive up to my store with no problem.  One guy-who has been disabled for over two years now- rides his motorcycle to my store.  I usually see them around the first of the month when they are flush.  Near the end of the month I see some of them when they need to sell me something to get to the first of the month.
My Dad was on disability for the last years of his life because of his heart, and there was a time when my seizures weren't controlled and I used disability for about five years.  As soon as I could, I went back to work and contributed to the system.  I believe that disability is fine for someone who truly needs it, but the way it is set up now, it is completely unsustainable.  Too many people look at this as free money and no work required.  Does anyone wonder why we are going broke?
One customer in particular has had three children and guess what?  She is trying to find something wrong with all three of them so that they can get a check also.  What a bunch of little money makers! Why is it that a six year old child needs a check?  Is there some job that they aren't able to do any longer?  When I was six years old, my chores included dusting, making my bed, clearing the table, and rinsing the dishes that were washed.  In what way did I contribute to the family that would require a check?
The thing that makes me the angriest is that while she was in jail for writing bad checks, she still received disability.  Yep-we mailed her a check even though she was cooling her heals in the grey bar motel.  Where is the common sense for that?
What is her disability you ask?  When she was a stripper, the stress of going to work every day caused her to have acute stress.  Maybe she should have learned a trade, or gotten an education.  I would think the stress of my children going hungry and homeless would get those pasties on, if nothing else.
Why would she need a check for her children's disabilities, any way?  Were they bringing in a check that the family depended on? Or is it just another biscuit to dip in our shrinking gravy train?  I bet it's the latter.
Another example that truly grates on me is right around the corner from me.  There is a guy on the corner who has a perpetual yard sale.  This town has something called 'spring clean up' when people set out the things that they want to haul to the dump, for whatever reason.  Quite often, there is nothing wrong with the item, the owner just no longer wants or needs it.  This "disabled" guy drives around for hours a day and loads his truck with the appliances, furniture, yard toys, lawn mowers and other things that people throw away.  So he can drive, lift more than fifty pounds repeatedly, make change, and sit and stand for long periods of time. How is he disabled again?  He looks perfectly able to stand by a door and say "Hi, welcome to Walmart.  Do you need a cart?"
Or what about the woman who won a million dollars in the lottery and continued to draw food stamps?  When she was confronted-she got angry!  She complained that after taxes, she didn't have more than five hundred thousand left!  How in the world was she supposed to furnish the two houses she had purchased if she had to buy her own food, too?  I was glad to see that she was arrested for fraud and has to repay much of the money that she received.But still-
Is there any question why we are broke?  Imagine it this way-if our Republic were a person-that person found out that his or her hours had been cut at work and  won't be making as much money.  Instead of tightening their belt, they just ordered the deluxe cable package for a brand new 78" wide screen television they just bought, and they're hoping that it's hooked up before he or she gets back from an around the world deluxe cruise.
Do you think any of those people are trying to get better so that they can contribute instead of drain the system?  Me neither.
I have no problem helping a person get back on their feet.  While I don't believe all of the receipts that I see online listing lobster, steak and other luxury items bought with food stamps- I do remember that when I worked at Walmart- those carts loaded down with fantastic cuts of beef and ground sirloin (and three cases of soda) were usually food stamp orders. I remember thinking-do me a favor and buy some ground turkey like I do- but of course I couldn't say it out loud.
I have no problem helping someone.  I have paid it forward on more than one occasion, we all have hopefully. It shouldn't be a lifestyle.  Think about it, you can thank me later.

Which Moron Thought this was a Good Idea?

Obama hates American exceptional-ism.  Watch him when he is out there "representing" us.  He cannot bow, scrape, or apologize enough for the way we do things better than others.  He cannot put his dumb hand over his heart when they display our flag.  He could barely stand to put a flag pin on his clothing.  He stands there, hands over crotch displaying his ignorance for all the world to see.(Strangely enough, he has no problem putting his dumb hand over his heart for other countries' flags. What's up with that??
While he was being groomed for the gig, you would have thought that one progressive would have given him a quick run down on U.S. Flag protocol.  He is such an anti- American tool.  It disrespects every man, woman, and child that ever sacrificed for that flag, the very flag that his yeti like wife couldn't understand the fuss over.
So B.O. has done everything in his power to kill the coal industry.  We have more coal than anyone else in the world.  We can burn coal at half the cost of anything else.  When B.O. and his ignorant minions decided to make coal less accessible, he decided that we would all pay twice as much for electricity.
He had some ignorant, misinformed, tree hugging vision of wind and solar power making up the difference. I guess he didn't realize that the private sector would be more than happy to step in if there was any practical way to make wind and solar profitable.  He takes more of an "all the above" approach in public now.  Of course, I haven't read about him urinating a half billion dollars to any of the coal industries-and yet-wasn't there a couple of high priced loans to now bankrupt solar companies?  Does Solyndra ring a bell?
Mine the coal, morons.  Mine the coal, use the coal here.  Not in China, here!  Bring the cost of energy down, and then we can begin to repair the damage that you have done in the last four years.  Build about ten more refineries by getting that useless E.P.A. (thanks Jimmy Carter) out of the way.  We have billions of barrels of oil right here.  Refinery jobs are excellent jobs that pay well for the risks that are taken.  Get out of our way and let us thrive, Obama.
The economy is in the toilet.  The cost of food, fuel, and housing is skyrocketing.  Those people who are lucky enough to have a good job are not certain how secure that job is.  Obama and his idiots are under reporting the unemployment numbers.  The government tells us that there is no inflation when you remove the costs of food and fuel.  Please tell me how you are suppose to manage a life without those two little things.  It would be like telling the family of a comatose patient that other than a heartbeat and brainwaves, the patient is just fine and dandy.
Think before you vote.  As one of my favorite bumper stickers read: "If you voted for Obama to prove you're not a racist, vote against him to prove you're not an idiot."  You'll thank me later.

Illegal Aliens Can't Vote in Our Elections, Mr. Holder

I have been very proud of the state that I grew up in-Florida-for purging their voter rolls of those who are not eligible to vote.  The illegal aliens, the felons, the visitors who are not eligible to vote will have to try and help steal an election some where else.
If they are able to answer the call to jury duty with the knowledge that they are ineligible because they are not citizens-what does Eric Holder see as voter suppression? They know that they aren't able to vote-why doesn't the "highest law enforcement in the land" know this?  Better yet, why isn't he enforcing this law?
So why is Eric Holder suing the state to make them stop?  Surely he understands that removing these names from the lists will ensure the integrity of the voting process.  He has to understand that requiring someone to show a picture I D is only verifying the process, right?
Of course he does, and that's what scares the crap out of them. Do you ever get the feeling that they want a bunch of ineligible voters on the rolls so that they can scam another election?  It kind of makes you wonder. It's a little harder to steal another election when people are watching, isn't it? In this state, there is an ongoing investigation into the forgery of names that even got B.O. on the ballot in the first place.  So if he wasn't eligible to be on this ballot, how many others was he not eligible for?
Texas is being sued to stop the practice of requiring a valid identification to vote.  How does that suppress the vote?  I mean from people who should be able to vote?  It doesn't, and the fact that the current administration wants as many illegal votes cast should tell you volumes about them.
The notion that the elderly would be discriminated against is laughable.  Eligible senior citizens always have their identification with them.  Don't believe me?  Forget to give one a senior discount and watch how quick that i.d. pops out!
Try buying alcohol without ID. For that matter, try to cash a check at Walmart without ID.  Try to get utilities turned on, or even drive a vehicle.  Are all of those activities racist as well?
Wouldn't people sworn to uphold the Constitution want to make sure that it was being upheld?  I guess not if it means their boss won't be elected.  It kind of makes you wonder why they wouldn't prosecute those black panthers for voter intimidation, doesn't it?  If two guys in hoods and robes had stood in front of a voting place with clubs-how quickly do you think Mr. Holder would have been on that?  Oh yeah, that's different.
Very soon, Mr. Obama will be our ex-president-God willing- and he and his wife can go back to what they are good at, that is mooching off the government teat.
I'm not crazy about Mitt Romney-more often than not, I call him mittforbrains.  But the Devil I don't know is better than the one we have in office now.  Register and vote.  You'll thank me later.

What do Bill Clinton and Herpes Have in Common?

Man o man, will he ever go away and stay away?  I have to wonder.  Most Presidents (the good ones, anyway) accept that their time in the public eye is over and they retire gracefully.  Slick Willie seems to be that party guest who just won't stay gone.  I know he craved attention- everything he did was calculated to draw the maximum amount of attention possible.  But I enjoyed 2000 ever so much more knowing that at the very least, he wouldn't be wagging his finger at me every day.  I guess I was wrong.
We all know someone like Bill.  It's either the drama queen/king co worker or that neighbor who knows everything-just ask him.  This is the person who got lucky once- and is now determined that you never, ever, forget it.
The msm has always enjoyed a slow dance in the moonlight with him.  There aren't many Presidents who could commit perjury, obstruction and possibly who knows what else and still have the msm in his back pocket.  He exposed himself to at least one woman and what did the media do?
Why-they made her the object of a smear campaign, of course!  That bulbous headed Carville made so many disparaging remarks about her-and trailer parks- and the Women's movements made not a whisper.  His pastor-Reverend Baby Daddy- was always there in the background offering him advice and photo ops.
His weight loss was covered with bated breath, as was his every sound byte.  He never fails to give his opinion on any given topic, it never stops!
Thank God for the internet-without it, I would never hear about the amazing job that President Bush and his wife Laura do for the troops who have been injured.  The countless hours visiting our brave soldiers in V A hospitals with no publicity, makes me proud to have voted for him. You never hear about it on the news, they aren't prostituting themselves for the attention.  No, they are saying thank you to the brave men and women who have made such huge sacrifices for all of us.
Clinton doesn't seem to get that he is not relevant any more. Thankfully, he cannot ever be president again, and the idea of his wife being in charge of anything other than looking the other way makes me reach for the maalox.
I think she is the Secretary of State much like that homely daughter of theirs works for NBC.  It looks good on paper.  Of course, when she ran for President, her sole qualification was looking the other way while he stepped out on her.  At yet, many idiots were perfectly willing to vote for her last time around.  I believe that a deal was struck to get her to step back, and I think the deal was probably brokered through the DNC.  They were so anxious to have B.O. on the ticket they were perfectly willing to chuck her under the bus to make it happen.  But, she couldn't have been any worse than what we have now.  She just couldn't.  Cross your fingers and hope that Slick willie will just go away, and soon.  You'll thank me later.

Live and Learn

Anyone who has read this blog knows that I am a small business owner.  I like to think that I went into it with my eyes wide open.  I thought that I was prepared for any of the hurdles that could come my way, or at the very least, I could figure them out.  I had researched my area and the market, I had found a location that would work for me, I thought.  I have found wholesalers who are reasonable, honest, and that stand behind their products.  I looked into what it would take to make a profit, and how much I would have to mark things up in order to be able to pay for the things I sold.  I have a great business plan(she said modestly) and I was prepared for the long haul.  Live and learn.  I am moving the location of my store at the end of this month, to a smaller spot about 100 yards away.  I am more excited about that move then I am when I actually opened my store.  One reason is because I know what I am getting in to, and more importantly, I know what I am getting away from.
 I made the stupid mistake of taking someone at their word.  I know, I know, you would think that I would have learned by now.  The owners of my current building did not have a lease for me when I opened.  I asked them about it time and again, only to be told that they would get it to me, no rush.  I told them about the leak in the ceiling.  They said that they would get it fixed really soon.  And then part of the ceiling fell on me, and I ended up with a couple of concussions.
Man o man, did the lease get ready in a snap!  Oddly enough, it specifically made them irresponsible for any accidents that occurred on the property. Huh.  It also listed them as not responsible for any break ins, and problems with the building, or any maintenance to the property. Huh. It's almost as if they looked at everything they had done wrong and tried to indemnify themselves from it.
Another problem that I have had is taking checks from the people that I rent from.  You would think that it would be safe, yes?  Silly rabbit.  I sold a GPS system to one of the people that I rent from.  A week later, I got a letter from my bank, telling me that I had a service charge for a bad check.  I paid for the fees from my bank, and then I paid the fees that my bank paid for the bad check.  I only got half of the bank fees from the check bouncer back.  I am still waiting on the rest of them.  I also sold this woman four other items.  She returned them all.   The GPS that she returned because she didn't like it had one trip in the memory that she forgot to wipe out .  The backup camera probably made the trip on the GPS a little easier.  The television was cancelled after I had already committed to paying for it.  I should name my restocking fee after this person, shouldn't I?
 So I decided that instead of dealing with these "men" I would move my building to a better location.  That is what I am doing this week.  I will be open for business on a limited basis this week as I move my store, and fully open next week.  I will still carry a small amount of consignment, just not any large appliances any more.  Come on over to 406 W 9th Street in Auburn.  I will make a great deal on whatever it is you are looking for, if I don't have it, I'll find it for you.  As I like to tell people, you never know what you'll find.  Stop by, you'll thank me later. 

Romney

Man, I don't like this guy.  I don't like the way he holds himself.  I don't like the patronizing way that he speaks.  I don't like it when he lifts that head of his, and then tilts it down to lecture me.  I don't like it when he rolls his sleeves up to show me he is just a regular, workin' joe (B.O. has perfected this look. I always smile when I picture the lucky assistant who gets that gig).
While I am bombarded daily with people who tell me that a vote not cast for Romney is a vote for B.O., I would disagree.  I think an empty spot on the ballot is a message to the G.O.P. that we will not be taken for granted.  Romney outspent his opponents by any where from 4 to 1 to 12 to 1.  He negative bombed them into oblivion.  Why do you think that there were so many front runners?  It seemed that every month there was a new front runner, someone that the public tried out to see who would be acceptable, who would hold the conservative banner the highest.  We were looking for someone who would be able to fix the God awful mess that B.O. and his Democratic led Congress and Senate created in the first two years of his one and done.
In 2010, the message was heard loud and clear, people washed off the kool aid mustachio and started fixing the problem.  B.O. described it as a "shellacking" and the msm lost their minds.  First, they didn't see the tidal wave coming.  They dismissed the tea party gatherings as a bunch of whiteys who were gathering up to wear their hoods and protest.  There were even attempts at planting some racists in the tea party gatherings.  Pictures were quickly taken of some idiot and his more idiotic message.  What wasn't shown were the Tea Party folks with their own signs that pointed out the idiots.  The people sent there to infiltrate were usually chased away by people who shamed them into leaving with their hate filled diatribes.
The Tea Party people that I speak to are not enthusiastic about Willard Mitt Romney.  When the best you can manage is "he's better than what we have now" you know that the argument isn't very strong.  If anything, the argument is pathetic with a capitol P. 
I want a brokered convention.  That is a convention where nothing is guaranteed, and people negotiate.  It's my last ditch hope that Romney- who has been running for six years and still can't pull 50% of the votes of just Republicans- will be thwarted and we will have a chance of fixing the mess, not managing the decline.  I want our Republic to shine again. I want to be the beacon, the thing that gives hope.  I want to be a world leader, in all things.  I want a President who inspires me, who lifts us up as a Nation.  Mitt ain't it.  Think about it, you'll thank me later
Okay, okay- I'll admit it. I am a sucker for hope. I see that Willard has removed his cranial rectum obstruction and chosen very well for his vice president.  Paul Ryan is a fiscal rock star! He loves his country, he loves his family, and he wants to see us shine. How can you not love that?  In a case of deja vu all over again, I see myself wishing, once again, that the ticket were reversed. McCain/Palin any one?  So ignore the hysterical bleating you are about to see unleashed from the left.  Ignore the commercials that show Grannies going over cliffs. Ignore the hysterical (but not on purpose, I bet)ravings from Ms. Wasserman-Schwartz.  You'll thank me later. Really.

Lake Charles Manufacturing Ships by Stage Coach

A friend of mine recently purchased an excellent storage system for her spices.  She puts them in glass test tubes and stores those in a test tube holder.  She uses quite a few spices and now her cupboard isn't cluttered, and she can easily lay her hands on what she needs.  She talked me into doing the same thing, just by how easily she can find what she needs.  I find that I like cooking now, I use quite a few spices and the idea of making it easier to find what I need quickly sounds wonderful.  In other words- I was sold.
Unfortunately, I purchased the test tubes from Lake Charles Manufacturing.  I looked at the kits that were sold and decided like she did, that it would be better to simply buy the tubes and holder and simply put my own spices in them with my own labels.  They were a good, fair price.  My behind stings a little from the shipping-they charge 40% for the shipping.  I think they "sell" them so cheaply and then ream you on the shipping.  Here is where my backside gets truly red: Lake Charles Manufacturing does not ship on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday! In other words, if you want to get your order from them, make dang sure that you order it on one of the few days that they are open and shipping!  How stupid to claim to be open seven days a week, but not doing anything that would constitute work. It would be as if Walmart claimed to be open seven days a week, but only let you buy things four of those days.  Stupid, isn't it?
And there is a lot to be said for customer service also.  I love buying Jarden Consumer Products- Mr. Coffee, etc.because I know that they stand behind their products and take care of any complaints in a very quick manner.  They want your business and it shows.
 That is not the case with Lake Charles Manufacturing.  My contact with them has been terse, at best.  They think that waiting four days to ship something is perfectly fair.  Let's just say that we disagree on this.  Four days!  And then, as I am tracking the snail pace that my purchase is (finally!) making- I see that the package is averaging 60 miles per day.  To borrow a description from Ron White- my package is moving at half the speed of smell!
I can't tell you how the tubes for my spices are-I probably won't know for another week at this rate.  Ironically, the test tube holder, which came from twice as far away ( and for much less shipping) has been here for two days!  Good thing that I didn't get it from Lake Charles Manufacturing, huh?  If you need anything in the way of test tubes, or if you want to organize your spices to make cooking easier, don't buy from Lake Charles Manufacturing you'll thank me later!
I can't let this print without updating my conversation with Haley's supervisor.  I called the company this morning and complained to the person who answered for customer service.  After explaining that it would have been faster to ship by Greyhound Bus, Haley gave me a song and dance that would have done Fred Astaire proud.  I explained that taking four days to simply process my order was unacceptable.  The customer service person told me that if I had ordered more, or paid to upgrade my service, that they would be here by now.  I asked to speak with a supervisor.  The first contact with her I thought resulted in her hanging up,but it was a dropped call, apparently.  After calling back, I was given a refund on the ridiculously over priced shipping.  I still wouldn't use Lake Charles Manufacturing, though.  I expect someone to treat my order as though it were important to them.  These people aren't doing that.

Massacre by a Crazy Guy with No Tea Party Connections

I am heart broken at the death and carnage from the individual who killed all of those people in Aurora.  I see others who are refusing to use his name, so that he is denied the vicarious thrill of being named and therefore infamous.  I like the idea so much that I couldn't even tell you what that loser's name is.  I hope he goes down quickly as a pathetic footnote in history.
I am curious as to why his family has already hired a lawyer.  Why do they need a lawyer?  I tried to watch her press conference, I really did.  I wanted to know more information about this awful person who clearly needed to be stopped.  I couldn't make it all the way through the conference because she does this thing with her mouth, it looks like she is licking her teeth, I'm not sure.  I imagine it is some sort of nervous tick, I just can't get past it.
I wish I was surprised that ABC rushed right out with the false accusation that this loser was a member of the Tea Party.  The odds of two people having the same name must be as high as what? One in two?  I am certain that they were engorged at the thought-if you know what I mean.  Turns out the blood would have been more useful in their brains, as they failed to do the most basic of checks, and of course, it was a different guy with the same name.  Ever met more than one person with the same name?  So have I.  I guess the concept was lost on the cracker jack team of journalistic integrity that is ABC.  Ask me why I don't trust the msm, go ahead.
So now we have two-count 'em-two individuals with no cheese on their cracker and both times the msm broke their legs to blame the people who want less government. While I am pretty sure the first guy was bat crap crazy- I think the second guy is just as sane as most people.
 Good thing that they don't have an agenda, isn't it?  How many times do they have to be wrong to get the idea that part of reporting the news is getting it right, the first time?  How many times do they get to absolutely blow it and still be taken seriously?  I can't imagine how misinformed I would be if I only counted on the three networks for my information.
I suppose that we should be thankful for the internet- it is just about the last place where you can get unvarnished information. Thanks again, Algore.
I am not the first to point this out, but it does bare repeating.  There was a 71 year old gentleman who stopped an attempted arm robbery and hostage situation by shooting those two cowardly weasels.  He had a concealed carry permit and he used it.
If only someone in Colorado had had the same foresightedness.  Perhaps we would be reading about a hero instead of the senseless murderous acts perpetrated by this piece of work. I read about one of the victims, he died trying to stop that horrid man.  He kept his girlfriend alive.  What an amazing man.
 I read an idea suggested by someone- I don't remember who- that suggested fixing the problem in a way that the government would love, especially with their taxing overdrive. First tax every able individual one hundred thousand dollars per year for gun control.  Immediately waive fifty thousand dollars per year to every person who owns a legally purchased fire arm.  Second, waive another twenty five thousand dollars when each person completes a gun safety course.  Third, waive another twenty five thousand dollars when each person files an affidavit stating that they carry their gun with them at least one day a week.
The liberals who abhor my ability to protect myself and my family can go ahead and pay the tax, they seem to love taxes, don't they?  Every way I look at it, this is a win-win.
So there are two things to consider- make sure that you verify what the msm tells you. And consider asking your elected officials about the new concealed carry tax.  You'll thank me later.

Michelle Obama Looks Like a Yeti, But I Won't Make Fun of Her

Do you remember when the media told us that family was off limits when it came to politicians?  Of course, that was when Chelsea Clinton was the kid in the White House, and entirely different. I have many things that I could say about her appearance, personality, amazing career opportunities due to her family connections, but I won't. Nope, not me.
But, when George W. Bush's daughters made some stupid choices, the msm had a field day with it.  I remember when Ronald Reagan's children were getting a fair amount of coverage for their opinions, also.Not that I agreed with them.  How is it possible for someone with President Reagan for a father to be so dumb politically? How one of the greatest presidents in modern history could have two bone headed children like that boggles my mind.  But back to the current resident of the Oval Office.
I have seen pictures of the family in the White House right now and I have one word: yikes.  While I understand that a person's appearance should not be the definition of who that person is- I will say that it's a dang good thing those Soetoro/Obamas have money.  A dowry may come in handy.
Why is there this double standard for conservatives in the media?  I promise you, if Laura Bush had looked like a fabled mountain creature, every vicious liberal comedian would still be making fun of her.  If  a conservative had children that were clearly going to be needing soft lighting-the more outspoken comics would be having a field day. Bill Maher-proof that anyone can make it in the United States if there ever was-can make fun of Sarah Palin and her children, but the cowardly fellow clearly has a double standard, doesn't he? Why wasn't ARC or one of the many other groups who lobby for the developmentally challenged screaming their heads off?  Granted, if he has two thousand viewers who aren't directly related to him or the staff, I would be surprised. I guess he was raised to make fun of the challenged because it makes him feel better about his own inadequacies.
Maybe if he were funny instead of just obnoxious it would help.  Of course, making fun of a single mother is always taking the high road, isn't it?  Clearly, Mr. Maher has never made a mistake, now has he?  Oh wait- he managed to get himself canned from ABC for siding with the terrorists, didn't he?  Can you imagine how much it irritated ABC to do something that made them look the slightest bit patriotic?  I bet the Maalox was flowing like wine that week.
My mother likes to repeat a section from a biography about Nancy Reagan.  Now the person who wrote that had about her had to walk it back and pay damages.  Her biography/hit pieces are not really based on facts, more like truthiness.  But. that aside, can you imagine the moral outrage if something like that were said about Hillary Clinton?  We're talking about a woman who ran for president with the sole qualification of having looked the other way while the president at the time(her husband) was having sex with every big toothed woman that would hold still-or at least be held.  With qualifications like that, every woman who tolerates a cheater is qualified.
I have a sarcastic side.  Anyone who has had more than three conversations with me is not surprised by this news.  A friend from work once told me that I didn't seem to have that switch in my head that stopped me from saying whatever I was thinking.  That may well be.  But look at the double standard in the media.  Ask yourself what they are trying to control by censoring opinion.  Ask yourself who they are trying to control with their censoring.  You'll thank me later.

I Can't Believe I Agree With the Klan on This

The Klu Klux Klan has applied to adopt a section of road in Georgia.  They have been denied.  While I am no fan of the ignorance perpetrated by this racist group-I have to wonder why they were denied.  If the state of Georgia has any controversial organizations what so ever- they have some 'splaining to do.  Don't think that I support the KKK in any way.  I think that they are a deplorable batch of bigots too cowardly to show their faces.  They take pleasure in the fear that they try to create.  They are probably very small-if you know what I mean.  I have known people who were only powerful when they were in a larger group, I think the cowardice they must face every day when they look in the mirror, must cause them many thousands of deaths.
That being said, who is Georgia to tell them no?  I don't like a lot of groups. I think the Susan G. Komen folks are cowards who blinked in the face of Planned Parenthoods' unrelenting assault on murdering babies.  I removed every pink ribbon that I had, and I sent them a letter with their last appeal for money telling them that I didn't want my money helping Planned Parenthood free up funds for their abortions.  I'll bet that they have a few hunks of adopted highway.
I might not like what they stand for, but free speech is free speech.  It doesn't protect you from things you don't want to hear.  That's not what it means.  And while I may disagree 100% with everything that the Klan says-I can't tell them that they can't say it.  I just ignore it and try to marginalize them.
Those attention whores at Westboro Baptist Church who protest at military funerals have been beautifully marginalized.  Every time a group of bikers sweeps them out of the area of concern- I cheer.  If the KKK does in fact adopt a section of the highway-and you can bet the ACLU that they will-why don't the people of that area save their most disgusting trash for their section?
I can't imagine that the KKK will have much enthusiasm for picking up bags of dog poop that have been cooking in the hot Georgia sun.  Not that I am advocating that-of course not.
You can't pick and choose you freedoms-you have to take them all.  Be glad that we all live in a Republic that allows us all to say what we think(for now) regardless if it is politically correct.  You'll thank me later.
