EBOLA- Why Hasn't B.O. Closed Down Travel to the Infected Areas?

Read one of my posts and you know my opinion of Obama. He is incompetent to the point of making Carter look good.  That takes some doing.  Never mind that he has violated our laws in every conceivable way. From appointments without senate approval to forcing his yeti wife's mandates onto our school lunches, there is a good chance if Obama is for it, then it isn't good for the United States of America.
Now we have Ebola swarming into the United States and has he stopped flights into and out of infected countries? Oh, you foolish thing! If he did that, he might miss a tee time or a fundraiser.  I imagine if he were sending the family on another 100 million dollar vacation, he would have concern, but heck-he can always just send a crap ton of secret service with them, like he did when his daughter went Mexico for Spring Break on our dime.
But back to this Ebola-we're told repeatedly that it isn't airborne.  Then why are people being quarantined that have only been in the same room with the infected person?  Why are nurses and other health care providers contracting the disease when they are in full bio gear?  What else aren't they telling us?
The CDC is now backtracking on if the virus is airborne.  Apparently it can be transmitted in droplets through the air.  Scary, isn't it?  But  it must not be that serious, right?  I have to believe that if we were in danger, the fundraiser in chief would post pone at least a couple of 35k per plate dinners, wouldn't he?  Wouldn't Gwenyth Paltrow have the good taste to gush less if lives were at stake?  Yeah, right.
How about this little gem?

The problem with a virus is that it's sole purpose is to mutate and survive.  The problem with the current administration is the same.  B.O. is so busy saying whatever he has to say to raise money to try and keep the senate that he doesn't give a rip about doing his job.  
Depending on who you ask- the odds of dying from ebola are 25 to 90%.  Those aren't good odds, and the best way to avoid it is to keep it out of the United States of America.  But that doesn't seem to be his first priority.  What do you think?  Mull it over, you'll thank me later.                                                                                  

Eating Their Own

All of the real polls show that this will not be a good year for anyone who has serviced Obama in the last six years.  At the beginning of the year, Nancy Pelosi was measuring the windows in the Speakers' Office.  Now, she makes delusional ramblings about gaining seats and whittling the Republican majority. M'kay.
There are several races that are too tight to call, but when huffpo is getting their panties in the proverbial knot, you know it isn't good.  I read an argument that one of their "writers" submitted blaming all of their current woes on lack of unity.  It spoke of Daschle blaming Reid blaming others.  I don't care who does it, but I will rent the tv if it means that I will be able to see Harry's antique fist hand over the gavel.  He is to politics as fecal matter is to new carpet.  He's a dog turd that serves no purpose.  He has cowardly refused to bring up any matter that will make it harder for his fellow progressives to go home and tell the idiots that voted for them why they did the things that they did.
If we had a working media, instead of the compliant followers of "the one" then maybe you would be getting real news, not propaganda.
Don't believe the crap that they are telling you.  Anyone who thinks that unemployment is really under 6 % is terminally stupid.
from  http://www.shadowstats.com/alternate_data/unemployment-charts


Again, unless you are terminally stupid or an Obama operative, (same difference, I know) you know a lot of people who are out of work.  It isn't pretty.
But we can start the path to fixing this. Vote in November.  Remove the obstacles that keep Obama from being held in check.  I am not afraid to use the I word.  If he were busy trying to keep his bony butt in the oval office, maybe he would be less able to do damage to the Republic.
In this day of Fox News and the internet, the msm would not have the strangle hold that it did when slick willie was impeached.  That is to say, the truth will out.
Are you better off than you were before B.O. took over?  Are you paying more for food, gasoline, heck-everything?  Vote in November.  Remove him now.  It can be done with a change in management in the Senate.  Think about it, you'll thank me later.

Why is Yahoo Screwing with my Email Because I use Google?

Two weeks ago I had to fix my laptop.  I managed to do it by myself (cue the Hallelujah Chorus) and ever since then, I cannot use Google Chrome to open my email in the preferred format.  Instead, I am forced to use that hokey, crappy circa 1995 email.  If I use Firefox, then I can open it.  What is going on?
I don't mind Firefox it is light years ahead of explorer- but it is light years slower than Google Chrome. Grrr.
I have posted questions to yahoo and have yet to receive an answer.  Maybe they are too busy streaming every drop of drivel that is posted by Huffpo.  I know my yahoo experience is chock full of their blather.  Maybe they are so busy trying to find that successful obamacare signee that is actually paying for their own insurance that they can't be bothered with answering me.  Who knows?  I just wish that when something was working very well, yahoo wouldn't mess with it.
My ex used to say that the internet has made everyone much more impatient.  He was right, and I attribute that to even a broken clock being right twice a day.  Slow down people, what's the hurry?  If me- the poster child for wanting it when I ask for it can say that-trust me, you need to slow down.
I don't have a problem with Mozilla FireFox.  I have watched their documentary on youtube and I appreciate how much work went into creating their product.  I liked it fine until I gave Chrome a test drive.  It is much faster, simple as that.
So now, I am forced to juggle between the two and it's a giant pain in the butt.  Not a tragedy, but still a pain, you know?
As far as tragedy go- here is one:
Did you know that our Marine SGT. Tahmooressi is still in a Mexican crap hole jail?  Do you know what B.O. has done about it? Zip. Zilch. Nada.  He is still preoccupied with the tons of illegals who have flooded our border.  They get his attention.  Our Marine can go whistle.  One of them was willing to die for us, the other? Not so much.
But time and again, B.O. has shown his utter contempt for Americans-in uniform and civilian.  Remember the yeti's eye roll over the American Flag ceremony from September 11th?  All this for a flag?
Or there was the latte salute.  He was so concerned with his beverage that he couldn't even have one of his flunkies haul it out for him.  Instead he just kept it in his hand while he disrespected the brave Marine who would take a bullet for him.
Well, enough of his deficiencies.  November is right around the corner.  Get out and vote!  And if you have any pull with Yahoo-send me an email.  I want my google chrome to work.  I'd thank you later!

Sorry Papa John's. I Don't Tip When There is a Delivery Charge

It's fair week in my little corner of heaven.  That means several things, not the least of which is very long days for me. I don't mind, the fair only comes once a year, and there is fried cheese!
Tonight, however, I'm not cooking.  It would seem that the team of choice won,so my order is half off at Papa John's.  I don't mind them, they have peppers in the box, and the drivers understand personal hygiene.  It's a win win for me.
And then today, I ordered online for later tonight.  Papa John's charges three dollars to bring my pizza half a mile.  I don't have the option of getting the thing, I am pretty much tied to my store for the whole day.  Here is the thing: when there is no delivery "fee" I tip about five bucks.  I have worked in a pizza place, I know the drill.  But when the fee is built in, there goes the tip.  I'm not going to give them even more money when they just charged me for bringing it to me.  Sorry about your luck.
Papa John's even has a little spot on their web site telling me that the drivers appreciate financial compensation for good service.  I bet they do.  But if they want even more compensation then the fee- they are barking up the wrong tree mister.  You can't have it both ways.  Charge me for delivery, and I have done enough for you.  I don't know how much of that filters down to the driver, but they were better off with free delivery.
Recently, the subject of tip shaming came up when a restaurant posted the tip (30 whole cents) on a large order from a NFL player.  He was a tight wad.  Shame on him. When you are in the restaurant, you have to tip-those people depend on tips to supplement their below minimum wage pay.  But if you are driving the pizza to me, and I am already paying for that- you better hope that Papa John's gives you a cut of their "delivery fee" because that's it for me.
Just so you know, I'm not tipping you for pouring the coffee into a cup and handing it to me, either.  If I was asking you to whip up some elk cream, add cinnamon and pour it twice that would be one thing.  But if the sum total of our transaction is that you pour my coffee into a cup and then pour milk into it- there is no tip involved.
I wait on people all day in my store.  I have explained long, detailed instructions to someone who needed the information.  I don't have a tip jar there for that.  It's my job.  I knew that going in.  If I wanted to work somewhere where I would be tipped- I would go back to work in a restaurant.  See how that works?
Think about it.  You'll thank me later.

While Iraq Implodes

When B.O. stole an election, gasoline was $1.64 a gallon.  The war in Iraq was just about over, and Afghanistan was a done deal.  I guess these are the results you get from a community organizer who has never really held a real job, and a compliant press who lap up his inane utterances as though they were Gospel.

So now, here we are.  Two thefts behind us and the world is exploding.  The only thing that B.O. has proven to be good at is golf.  He has a mean swing, I am told.  Of course, I haven't seen it.  He prefers to play on private courses that don't allow any pictures to be taken of the Golfer in Chief, while Iraq burns.

President Bush warned what would happen if we left a vacuum in the middle East.  It would seem that he was spot on.  But instead of listening to any common sense or reason, B.O. has pulled us out of the area.  All of those men and women died for nothing.  Terror groups are rampaging through the area.  Be-headings are everywhere.  The religion of peace has yet to condemn any of this-they are too busy stoning people.  That is when they aren't blowing something up or demanding that we follow their rules, or else.

I don't think I have ever met a peaceful muslim.  I have seen countless examples of them as they try and control everyone around them.  I have seen many stupid women who voluntarily agree to be treated like chattel.  Stupid.  Stupid, stupid stupid.

Were they abused when they were young? Do they think that they don't deserve to be treated like human beings?

And of course, the only thing that B.O. can do is vacation and give sound bytes.  He is to leadership as a duck is to ballet.  Incompatible.

We have a chance to fix it in a few weeks.  In November, we can return the senate to sane ground.  We can remove Boehner as the speaker of the house and replace him with someone who has a backbone.  It can be done.  And once it is done, please let Trey Gowdy loose.  Demand answers from the white house.  I am not afraid to use the I word.  Start with some hearings, and when the press refuses to cover it, use the means that you have. Plaster it all over conservative media.  eventually even the sheep will notice.  Elections have consequences.  Show B.O. how true that is.  You'll thank me later.

Stop Everything! Two People Who Cheated to Be Together Got Married! or, Third Time is the Charm.

This should be about three weeks old by the time that it gets published.  That should give me time to decide if I want to let it go out into the world, or just let it quietly be deleted.  Ever since my faithless ex cheated, adultery has been a bit of a sore subject. I think divorce is too easy to get, there, I said it.  But even if it weren't so easy to get-when did adultery become the thing to be celebrated?
Don't give me that crap about two people just wanting to be happy.  Two people were happy until one of them followed his or her naughty bits into greener pastures.  If divorce were as difficult to get as it used to be, then maybe people would reconsider before screwing around.
Don't get me wrong-I never saw the attraction to Brad Pitt.  He isn't ugly, but neither are a lot of men.  He decided to be socially aware.  How nice for him.  So he made a couple of speeches about a couple things, and suddenly, he is a serious actor.  Whatever. He is a cheater.  Worse, he is unrepentant.  I guess it's okay now to be a liar and a cheat.
Of course, the woman that he left his wife for has a history of cheating.  That is, when she isn't french kissing her brother.  I guess she doesn't worry about the morals of a situation.  Let's hope none of her children ever run into a woman like, well, her.  It would serve her right.
While I am on this particular soap box- at least now when they go out to buy another child, they will have the blessing of marriage on their side.  I've spoken often about a friend who has been trying to adopt for several years now.  Unless you are a celebrity, there is no baby store where you can pick up a fresh newborn off the shelf and take it home.
When people talk about the moral decay of our nation-this is what they mean.  Divorce is too easy to get. Abortion is too easy to get.  Cheating is acceptable, if not condoned.  Ask Slick Willie.  Lying is expected.  I don't understand why things are allowed to slide like this.  When do people take a stand?
Is it really much of a leap from homosexual "marriage" to polygamy and other abominations?  I have often said that I have a dog that is more loyal than any man I have ever met.  If I married her, she would have all of the spousal benefits and protections that are given to two lesbians who play dress up for a day-why not?
But before I segue into another rant- let's just say that I find Brad Pitt and his latest wife disgusting.  When they implode-and they will-I will be right there with a giant toldyouso.  Think about it.  You'll thank me later.

Small Claims Court Adventures

I have rental property. Anyone who thinks that this is the ticket to easy street had better shop around for another ticket.  There are good things about rentals, but there are a host of other issues that make it not as great as people would think it is.
Good tenants. There are times when this starts to seem like a myth, something like a unicorn sighting.  I was always a good tenant. I paid on time, and I didn't tear things up.  I left it as clean-or cleaner-than when I rented it.  This is not always the case.  Trust me. I have had tenants who put holes in the wall. Some have let their animal destroy screen doors. Don't they see the problems as they are happening?  I guess not.  They are oblivious to the damage until the time to get their security deposit rolls around.  Then they notice, trust me.
Neighbors to your rentals.  I know people who hate having rentals in their neighborhood.  They believe that it lowers their property values, I guess.  Or maybe they think that a renter is automatically a bad person.  All I know is that I have 3 neighbors that I guarantee will tell me anything that my tenant may have done long before they are finished doing it.  It could be something I would like to know about-rolling stolen property into the place (thanks Juanita) or it could be something asinine-a neighbor who complains when tenants park across the street in front of his house.  You grit your teeth with these neighbors, that is all that you can do.  No matter what happens, they aren't happy.  Forget about trying to please them, that is a lost cause.
Quiet.  I had a tenant with a surround system.  There is a common wall.  While the tenant loved Star Wars- no one else wanted to hear the bass and treble involved in that movie when it is full blast.  Keep your volume at a normal level.  If you want to hear it blaring-go to the movies.  I work anywhere from 50 to 65 hours a week, and when I can finally go home, I just want to sleep, not listen to your noise.
Children.  Kids are great, I have three of my own.  But not everyone wants to see or hear your screaming destructive little offspring.  Teach them not to break things.  More importantly, teach them not to bother things that  aren't theirs.  That will go a long way toward making your landlord less hostile.  Trust me.
I know it seems like I am nit picking.  I had a downstairs neighbor once, she smoked like a chimney.  Most of all, she wanted to live in the duplex all alone.  She complained about every noise, sound and smell that came from her neighbors.  She once complained because she could hear my sons and me walking across the floor.  Seriously.  She wanted me to take my boys and go somewhere so that she couldn't hear us walking.  I shut the door in her face.  It also helped to block some of the stink from her cigarettes that she smoked 24/7.  But I know that it goes both ways.
We all have to get along in this world.  Stop looking for ways to make yourself angry and just try to get along with people.  You'll thank me later.

Wow! Does that Drunk Chick Hate Rick Perry! Why?

Have you seen the video where Reese Witherspoon got arrested?  She did the celebrity thing that drives me batcrap crazy.  She asked the question.  You know the one.  Do you know who I am?  As soon as the words are out in a movie-the protagonist always has a snappy answer.  I love those.  But in this case, she just had a bunch of drunken threats that pretty much toasted her 'America's Sweetheart' image and gave her manager a bigger need for Maalox, I'll bet.  There is a Latin expression : in vino verde.  It means in wine there is truth or what a person says while he is drunk is what he really thinks.  I believe that is the truth.
So now we come to District Attorney Rosemary Lehmberg.  She is in charge of the public integrity office.  She was arrested and convicted for having a blood alcohol content that was three times the legal limit.  She will not resign so Governor Perry vetoed any funds to her department.  An arrest warrant was issued for the Governor.
Keep  in mind that Austin is the liberal swamp in an otherwise sane bastion of common sense.  There are no plans to arrest or even pursue the warrant.  It just seems to be a genuine hissy fit thrown by a bureaucrat that should be removed from office.  Shame on her colleagues for not encouraging her to resign.
Watch the video.  She is pitiful.
http://youtu.be/s7y7oJ266qI
Maybe she is an alcoholic.  I don't know her situation.  Maybe she just had too many, and doesn't realize that the laws apply to all of us, not just us peons, but the bureaucrats as well.  Maybe she forgot.  It happens.
But Governor Perry said that if Ms. Lehmberg didn't resign, he would withhold funding.  He kept his word,that is probably what threw them. Their response was to waste countless tax dollars drafting an arrest warrant for the Governor.
And now we have the pictures of Governor Perry's mugshot.  He handled it with charm and grace, and a dash of humor.  Not to mention, his mugshot looks head and shoulders better than Ms. Lehmberg's does.  How much tax payer money is this wasting, anyway?
Cause and effect seems to be lost on a certain set of people.  Is there some wonder set of people who were pulled aside and told that it didn't matter what they did-they could get away with it throughout the ages?  Besides Ted Kennedy, who else was there?  Okay, Slick Willie, him too.  But who else?
Rules should be the same for all of us.  Same rules. Same consequences.  Think about it.  You'll thank me later.

Why Does Harry Reid Want To Impeach Obama?

If you turn on the news, you keep hearing the "I" word.  You aren't hearing it from John Boehner. You aren't hearing it from  Rand Paul.  You aren't even hearing it from Ron Paul.  You are hear it from Nancy Pelosi.  You will hear it from the likes of  Harry Reid.  It will come in panicky tones from B.O.
The New York Times will mention it. It's a great way for the liberals to raise money.  They have been fund raising from it for a while now.  CBS mentions it on the news from time to time. NBC uses it like toilet paper. MSNBC screams it hysterically like a menopausal woman having her first real hot flash  in a crowded elevator full of burlap and barbed wire samples.
When The Senate flips ( God willing) there had better be some serious conversation about impeachment.  Until then, it's just rabble rousing.  I imagine that it is whispered in serious tones by the more realistic members of Congress.  Even they have to see the writing on the wall.  When someone polls in the high 40's-you are not looking at a good November.
Keep in mind, this is from people who are not getting real news.  They are spoon fed sunshine and roses every day.  If a cloud dares to show its face on the horizon- it is only because some mean old crazy tea party person put it there.
Rand Paul is personally responsible for puppies and kitties drowning.  I read that somewhere.  But back to the plan of the democrats.  They are the only ones who are talking about impeaching B.O. and it's pretty freudian when you think about it.  They know that that is the biggest cure to everything that ails our nation.  They also know that the last thing they want to do is fix our nation.  Poor Nancy Pelosi is gnashing her really large teeth at the idea she could have been vice president had B.O. been removed while she was Speaker of the House.  It would be bad enough with Mr. Boehner. But whatever it takes to get B.O. out.
Of course, after he's gone, we have to go about undoing most of the damage he has caused.  Crazy Joe Biden will actually think he is in charge of something.  That will have to be dealt with, of course.
There are three branches of government.  Something the Harvard "Law Professor" seems to have forgotten. Biden could be constrained for a year until it was time for an election.  We just have to hold on until November, and pray to God that Obama doesn't blow the world up before then.  Think about it.  You'll thank me later.

I Stand With Israel

Israel sits on a tiny piece of land, about the size of New Jersey.  New Jersey is our fifth smallest state to give you a comparison.  Now, this tiny country is being asked to give up land to Palestinians, a made up people.  There is no such thing as Palestinians, they are simply Arabs.  Obama hates Israel.  I don't know if it is because their leader Benjamin Netanyahu knows Obama is an idiot and doesn't keep it to himself.  I don't know if it's because Obama's first allegiance is to muslims.  But there is some serious bad blood between the two.
It has become fashionable of late to be anti-semitic.  A day doesn't pass without some would be celebrity endorsing the terrorists who attack Israel daily.  They shoot one hundred rockets into Israel and then Israel responds by shooting one back.  The left and the msm go crazy.
The terrorists are hiding their rockets in schools and hospitals.  Israel shoots the places where the rockets are.  The left goes crazy.
I stand with Israel.  They have had to take too much crap from too many places.  They can't know peace because the crazy people around them will not allow it.  Leave Israel alone.
What is it that makes those other places crazy?  Israel is on one of the few places in the middle east that doesn't have oil reserves under it.  The land that created Israel isn't high end real estate.  But those muslim countries are going crazy, just the same.
Enter would be celebrities who feel that because they can memorize words and repeat them, that they should have a say in world politics.  That's a guaranteed recipe for stupidity.
I don't care what one of Tom Cruise's old beards think.  I don't care what any celebrity thinks about much of anything-I generally don't care for their opinions.
Leave Israel alone if you can't find the sense to support her.  She has been our steadfast ally through everything.  In a few short months, when B.O. is gone from Pennsylvania Avenue, we can have a leader again.  A leader who understands the importance of Israel and supports our relationship with her.  God bless Israel and the United States.  Think about it.  You'll thank me later.
