What's That in the Background?

All I want for Christmas is free Obama money!
The above link takes you to a nice explanation of the picture below, but the skinny on it:
Lady complaining about the inability to pay for her heating bill...but the sorry thing she didn't think about was checking what was behind her in the picture.  Later on she denied this was her living room, even though she claimed it was her house here. Maybe instead of hopping on the free obama money train, try updating the basic priorities. A huge flat screen doesn't seem to fit with them.

Watch: mayor crushes illegally parked car

I enjoyed this. Lithuanian official runs over a misparked Benz with a troop carrier.

The Pups' New Home

On the Prowl
It's been almost a month since moving from an apartment to a house. We all love the extra space, but I sort of tossed myself back into the routine of yard work. There are lots of undergrowth that needs to be cleaned up, and the weekly debris pickup by the city is clearly getting its money's worth(On the first week they had to make a second trip due to me filling up their truck). Plus, as the first pictures shows, the fence needs a little fixing. But...Polly & Penny now have a yard to call their own and bark it up even more for no reason.

Trail Master

Shannon & I took the pups on a hike at the Oak Mountain State Park. The pups were not expecting hours of hiking or the multitude of ticks that we had to yank out for a couple days.

The sleep afterwards was easy for Penny & Polly

Yes, this is change!

Some of you will appreciate this and some of you will not.
I do not apologize for reposting this simply because all of it is true.

If any other of our presidents had doubled the national debt, which had taken more than two centuries to accumulate, in one year, would you have approved?

If any other of our presidents had then proposed to double the debt again within 10 years, would you have approved?

If any other of our presidents had criticized a state law that he admitted he never even read, would you think that he is just an ignorant hot head?

If any other of our presidents joined the country of Mexico and sued a state in the United States to force that state to continue to allow illegal immigration, would you question his patriotism and wonder whose side he was on?

If any other of our presidents had pronounced the Marine Corps like Marine Corps, would you think him an idiot?

If any other of our presidents had put 87,000 workers out of work by arbitrarily placing a moratorium on offshore oil drilling on companies that have one of the best safety records of any industry because one foreign company had an accident, would you have agreed?

If any other of our presidents had used a forged document as the basis of the moratorium that would render 87000 American workers unemployed would you support him?

If any other of our presidents had been the first President to need a Teleprompter installed to be able to get through a press conference, would you have laughed and said this is more proof of how inept he is on his own and is really controlled by smarter men behind the scenes?

If any other of our presidents had spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to take his First Lady to a play in NYC, would you have approved?

If any other of our presidents had reduced your retirement plan holdings of GM stock by 90% and given the unions a majority stake in GM, would you have approved?

If any other of our presidents had made a joke at the expense of the Special Olympics, would you have approved?

If any other of our presidents had given Gordon Brown a set of inexpensive and incorrectly formatted DVDs, when Gordon Brown had given him a thoughtful and historically significant gift, would you have approved?

If any other of our presidents had given the Queen of England an iPod containing videos of his speeches, would you have thought it a proud moment for America?

If any other of our presidents had bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia, would you have approved?

If any other of our presidents had visited Austria and made reference to the nonexistent "Austrian language," would you have brushed it off as a minor slip?

If any other of our presidents had filled his cabinet and circle of advisers with people who cannot seem to keep current in their income taxes, would you have approved?

If any other of our presidents had stated that there were 57 states in the United States, wouldn't you have had second thoughts about his capabilities?

If any other of our presidents would have flown all the way to Denmark to make a five minute speech about how the Olympics would benefit him walking out his front door in his home town, would you not have thought he was a self important, conceited, egotistical jerk?

If any other of our presidents had been so Spanish illiterate as to refer to "Cinco de Cuatro" in front of the Mexican ambassador when it was the 5th of May (Cinco de Mayo), and continued to flub it when he tried again, wouldn't you have winced in embarrassment?

If any other of our presidents had burned 9,000 gallons of jet fuel to go plant a single tree on Earth Day, would you have concluded he's a hypocrite?

If any other of our presidents' administrations had okayed Air Force One flying low over millions of people followed by a jet fighter in downtown Manhattan causing widespread panic, would you have wondered whether they actually get what happened on 9-11?

If any other of our presidents had failed to send relief aid to flood victims throughout the Midwest with more people killed or made homeless than in New Orleans, would you want it made into a major ongoing political issue with claims of racism and incompetence?

If any other of our presidents had created the position of 32 Czars who report directly to him, bypassing the House and Senate on much of what is happening in America, would you have ever approved?

If any other of our presidents had ordered the firing of the CEO of a major corporation, even though he had no constitutional authority to do so, would you have approved?
So, tell me again, what is it about Obama that makes him so brilliant and impressive? Can't think of anything? Don't worry. He's done all this in 21 months -- so you have that much time to come up with an answer.

AND HE DOESN'T GET CREDIT FOR TAKING OUT BIN LADEN!!!

Every statement and action in this email is factual and directly attributable to Barrack Hussein Obama. Every bumble is a matter of record and completely verifiable.

Flying Silver Carp



My dad gets the credit finding this video. If you don't get a good laugh out of this then you need to check your pulse. Enjoy.

Obama's Beach Party!



Kick back with Andrew Klavan and enjoy the roaring, soaring, constitution ignoring days of Obama's Recovery Summer. It's sunny. It's funny. But I'm out of work honey. With unemployment over 9%, what isn't there to love? At least it isn't the grim old days of George W. Bush when unemployment was below 6%. Enjoy the show!

Snow Dogs

Polly & Penny had their first winter storm when we visited China Grove in December. Here they are learning what cold toes feels like.
