I hate to see this...

As most of you know, I am not a big Al Gore fan, but I hate to see people throw away 40 years of marriage, especially after what they have been through together. You would think that, after some amount of time, you could feel secure in that relationship. I guess I don't get it. He is 62 and she is 61. Perhaps these days, that is young enough to start over again.

And did you know...

That official Whitehouse physicist Stephen Chu ordered the topkill stopped on the bleeding oil well in the gulf. Suddenly, he became fearful that the pressure from the heavy mud might cause another problem somewhere else.
Where?
What problem?
A bigger problem than thousands of barrels or oil flowing into the Gulf of Mexico each hour?
A bigger problem than the bankrupt fishing and shrimping industries?
I get this from CNN, and no, I don't watch CNN. I stumbled across this on the internet.


Also, last week Obama got a wild hair to visit a solar panel plant. He wanted to do it on a regular production work day, so the employees that build these solar panels were all told to take the day off without pay because the layout of the plant was too much of a security risk. All of those people had to give up a day's pay so His Majesty could have a photo op at a solar panel plant. Good call, Mr. President!

Ranger skid

This is not good.
Your Texas Rangers have hit an oily spot in the road and gone into a skid.
Bet you didn't know that the gulf oil disaster had reached all the way to Minneapolis.
The starting pitching is not getting the job done.

Those Clintons are at it again...

I always get a kick out of the involvement of that former President Clinton and the current Secretary of State, his erstwhile wife.
First of all, Bill is taking that fall for Obama on the Sestak bribery scandal from the Whitehouse. They are saying that Bill Clinton offered Sestak an unpaid position on a Presidential advisory council if he would not run in the primary.
HUH?
What kind of a bribe is that? Why in the world would they think that a guy would pass up a solid chance at a Senate seat for an unpaid position on some presidential council? Talk about backtracking to cover your tracks. And of course, Slick Willy is more than happy to cover for the Obama Whitehouse since his wife's job is on the line.


Then we have Mrs. Clinton, your Secretary of State holding the Brazilian system of taxation up as an example of how we should be. What was her statement? Oh yeah, "the rich are not paying enough in taxes." (I guess like they do in Brazil.)
Hillary, taxes are monies that are actually paid to the federal government, just in case you weren't clear on that. How much money have you hidden in your foundations? Let's see, there is $10 million in the Bill Clinton Memorial Library and Massage Parlor. That's $10 million tax dollars that you deprived your government of. That's $10 million they are going to have to get from somewhere else. But wait, there's more: Hillary had a secret foundation that they had stashed $5 million in prior to 2008. She decided that she probably should disclose that foundation during her run for the presidency in 2008. By the way, aren't those foundations supposed to pay money to support the purpose of the foundation? I hear that Hillary's foundation paid nothing last year in gifts or endowments or whatever you call contributions from a "foundation".


And finally, leading up to the person who holds the leashes of Bill and Hillary Clinton, Obama has accused BP of not being transparent in disclosing all of the ramifications of their efforts to stop the oil leak. Nice, since the Obama administration is about as transparent as a block of granite when wielding their strongarm Chicago political tactics, such as offering jobs to Congressmen who indicate a desire to unseat an incumbent liberal democrat Senator.

By the way...

...the Rangers are still in first place.

Need a new health magazine to subscribe to...

I guess I'm done with MensHealth Magazine. I'm not going to cancel my subscription, but when this runs out I won't be renewing. I have subscribed to that magazine for over 10 years now, but in the last few months it has become a liberal propaganda rag for Obama policies.
They have written articles in favor of government controlled health care in this country and turned their back on the possibility of removing state roadblocks to more interstate competition among health insurers. Last month, I read a long article touting the virtues on the French health care system.
But this month, in the editors preface page, he is positively giddy over the fact that he proposed a tax on sugary sweet foods under the guise of helping America regulate their diets.
Have so many Americans lost their minds that they want the government trampling on our freedoms to make choices...any choices?
Why not pass legislation banning sugar and high fructose corn syrup in manufactured foods?
Are we going to have the kitchen police now? Are they going to march four abreast into your kitchen to check your cannisters and cupboards for sugar or syrup?
Where does this madness stop?
Have Americans gotten so simple and dull witted that we need our government in Washington legislating what we eat?
And what about the impact to the sugar industry and the corn growers? Is Obama willing to add even more people to his unemployment casualty roll in favor of more regulation and tax?
I don't know about you all, but the willingness of people to call on the government to take more control over us is just scary.

Goodbye Mavs...Say Hello to Your Texas Rangers

Yes indeed...
In case you haven't noticed, the Rangers are in first place in the American League West after a little bit of a rocky start.
I really feel good about this year for those guys.
