Arrogance Revealed!

From news websites today:

If you'd been foolish enough to bet $5 that Joe Biden could walk into a Midwestern custard shop and not create some sort of national incident by uttering a mild profanity, well, it's time to pay up.

Yes, the gaffe-prone vice president with the notoriously salty tongue did it again over the weekend during a visit to a custard shop in Glendale, Wis., with Sen. Russ Feingold (D-Wis.). After Biden asked what he owed for his tasty frozen treat, Kopp's Frozen Custard manager Scott Borkin quipped, "Don't worry, it's on the house. ... Lower our taxes and we'll call it even."

Biden initially brushed off Borkin's comment — but then circled back to the manager and asked, "Why don't you say something nice instead of being a smarta-- all the time?" You can watch a report on the incident below (video courtesy of ABC News):

Borkin said that the vice president came over to him later and whispered that he was just playing around. But the store manager reported he was still taken aback by Biden's strong reaction to his comment. "It didn't seem right, especially from someone in his position," Borkin told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

Appearing on Fox News' "Fox & Friends" Monday morning, Borkin said that he still finds it "kind of shocking to hear that come out of his mouth," adding, "I was thrown by it. I wasn't expecting that, especially from, you know, the No. 2 in charge of our country." Watch (courtesy of Fox News):

My editorial comment - How dare that shop owner ask to keep more of his own money? Doesn't he know that the VP was probably doing cerebral research on a global econometric model of the dessert trade? Probably for an upcoming United Nations meeting?

Next time, my friend - charge him double - tell him that you need to increase prices so you can afford the Obamacare free health care system for your employees! There is no such thing as a free lunch, or dessert! This was a missed opportunity to teach a politician an economics lesson. Better luck next time.

Take "the test" and choose a side - soon!

If you ever wondered what side of the fence you sit on, this is a great test!

If a conservative doesn't like guns, he doesn't buy one.
If a liberal doesn't like guns, he wants all guns outlawed.

If a conservative is a vegetarian, he doesn't eat meat..
If a liberal is a vegetarian, he wants all meat products banned for everyone.

If a conservative is homosexual, he quietly leads his life.
If a liberal is homosexual, he demands legislated respect.

If a conservative is down-and-out, he thinks about how to better his situation.
A liberal wonders who is going to take care of him.

If a conservative doesn't like a talk show host, he switches channels.
Liberals demand that those they don't like be shut down.

If a conservative is a non-believer, he doesn't go to church.
A liberal non-believer wants any mention of God and religion silenced.
(Unless it's a foreign religion, of course!)

If a conservative decides he needs health care, he goes about shopping for it, or may choose a job that provides it.
A liberal demands that the rest of us pay for his.

If a conservative reads this, he'll forward it so his friends can have a good laugh.
A liberal will delete it because he's "offended".

Out of the Mouth of Babes

This deserves special mention, it was sent to me by a friend. A third grade class of Tussing Elementary school sings this song, posted on youtube.

OUT OF THE MOUTHS OF BABES...

After all the bad press over a few teachers who stepped out of line teaching songs to our children, this one is one you will be so proud to hear. At the end of the song you can order the sheet music.

Awesome. I hope this sweeps our country and gets sung in all our schools. The music teacher wrote the song and had all the third graders sing.

Enjoy -- great message with photos from around the world.

Student explains budget cuts ONLY 1 MIN 38 SEC:


A college student "explains our Federal Budget" and the portion that must be
borrowed, in simple terms for everyone, plus his visual aid example easily
demonstrates the $100 million cut that the President promised as savings.

Click on this link and be amazed. Watch it twice to enjoy the simplicity.

Then decide if it is time to write and call your Senator for a stop to
deficit spending.

I decided to do something about this- in my next post - I will balance the federal budget -yes, little old me, with only a few hours of work - for real, no jokes or videos.

Si se puede!!

I intend to go through the budget department by department and come up with a number we can all understand in simple terms. I hope I embarrass all the intelligentsia. Simple always wins, simple is genius - I think Einstein said that. Stay tuned.

American Cartoon, there is still hope

You'd be very surprised ! Pay close attention ! Keep in mind as you watch this that it was done in '1948'. Keep telling yourself that as you view it.

This is one of the best I have ever seen and it was produced in 1948 . This should be viewed by every AMERICAN....

Click on 1948 Cartoon below - this cartoon is timeless and is just as true today as it was in 1948!

Health care disaster, new platform issues

Dear Friends,
As you know, we had a disaster happen yesterday in DC, the Obamination health care bill passed. I believe this is the absolute wrong thing to do for our country, and I have my own plan of action.

Virginia will file suit tomorrow to contest the bill on several legal grounds and over 30 states are considering passing laws to prohibit the feds from forcing people to buy insurance. Several Constitutional challenges are possible on several different legal grounds.

However, Texas is not currently one of those states! We need to get moving, so I am adding to my campaign platform the following topics -

1. Create a law similar to Virginia which forbids the feds from forcing state residents to purchase any goods or services. Ask the TX Attorney General to also file suit against the feds on the same grounds as Virginia does.

2. While we are at it, lets also continue the trend toward freedom by amending another very troubling law - the law of Eminent Domain. This has always bothered me. The state should not have the right to take anyone's property for any reason whatsoever, INCLUDING eminent domain. If they cannot purchase it outright, it should not be taken. This would stop all the nonsense about creating a cross Texas rail system which no one will use and a fiscal boondoggle for all the real estate developers and lawyers. I know I will not make many friends with this law, but we need to stand up for what is right.

Both of these ideas center on the power of the government to take your private property without your consent, and I say, enough is enough. Let out state lead the way toward true freedom...

If you think this is not important, well... a short history lesson.

read the book - Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand. The synopsis is that all the government bureaucrats conspire to take over the society and take control away from the "creators", or the so called wealthy, all their assets. They go on strike, retreat in a hideaway in the mountains and start their own society which flourishes. All the while the "takers" try to run the factories and do a terrible job, running them into the ground and society crumbles. This book was written 50 years ago. Its lessons still hold true.

We are on that precipice now. In Texas, you may think that we are all conservative, but that would be a dangerous assumption. Many Tea Party loyalists are focused on national elections, which is fine - but DON"T forget about TEXAS! Local and State laws also matter. I know that we are experiencing an influx of people from other states north moving into our state. This may dramatically change the liberal bias in future elections. Ask any Republican or Libertarian official. I welcome newcomers, I was one of them some 25 years ago. But I do not want them to take our state into a liberal bias. I cannot expect them to adopt conservative values. So I encourage all of you to consider my proposals before we look at each other someday and wonder - "Where is the Texas I used to know?"

2009 recap

This came to mail from a friend, thought it was worth sharing...

IN GOD WE TRUST & GOD BLESS AMERICA

Let's Recap "2009".........what a year!

1. The American people inaugurate a president with a total of 142 days experience as a US Senator from the most politically corrupt state (city) in America whose governors have been ousted from office.

The President's first official act is to order the close of Gitmo and make sure terrorists civil rights are not violated. (honest mistake?)

2. The U.S. Congress rushes to confirm an Attorney General, Eric Holder, whose law firm we later find out represents seventeen Gitmo Terrorists.
(An honest mistake?!)

3. The CIA Boss appointee, Leon Panetta, has absolutely no experience, has a daughter Linda, we find out, who is a true radical anti-American activist and a supporter of all the Anti-American regimes in the western hemisphere.
(There were socio-economic factors involved!)

4. We got the second most corrupt American woman (Pelosi is #1) as Secretary of State; bought and paid for. (You can put lipstick on a pig, but it still stinks!)

5. We got a Tax Cheat for Treasury Secretary who did not properly file his own taxes for 12 years.
(He misspoke!)

6. A Commerce Secretary nominee who withdrew due to corruption charges.
(Another honest mistake???)

7. A Tax cheat nominee for Chief Performance Officer who withdrew under charges.
(Hmmm... another screw-up?)

8. A Labor Secretary nominee who withdrew under charges of unethical conduct.
(Ok, maybe this person was just plain stupid.)

9. A Secretary HHS nominee (Daschle) who withdrew under charges of cheating on his taxes.
(I'm running out of excuses for these idiots!!)

10. Multiple appointments of former lobbyists after an absolute campaign statement that no lobbyists would be appointed.
(Dear God, I am getting a headache!)

All this occurred just during the first three weeks. . . but who's counting?


America is being run by the modern-day Three Stooges ; Barry, Nancy and Harry and they are still trying to define stimulus..."it's spending!!!"

The congress passes the $800,000,000,000 (that's $800 billion) pork-loaded spending bill where the government gives you a smidgen of your tax dollars ($13 per week), making you feel so good about yourself [stimulated], that you want to run out to Wal-Mart and buy a new Chinese-made HDTV!

Only with the Liberals...

Pray for our country.

Here's the good news though - Obama took Air Force One to Denver to sign the stimulus package, wasting as much as 10,000 gallons of fuel OR 24 JOBS FOR ONE YEAR.

Don't you just love hypocrites?

Obama went to the International Olympic Committee to have them choose Chicago for a host city, he failed.

Obama went to Copenhagen to lecture them on global warming, he failed.

Obama went to new Jersey to promote the Democratic candidate for governor, he failed.

Obama went to Virginia to promote the Democratic candidate for governor, he failed.

Obama went to Massachusetts to promote the Democratic candidate for senator, he failed.

Speaking of praying, Obama has now been president for a full year and yet he & wife (first lady) Michelle, the Christian family they claim to be, have not attended church since the inauguration.


Obama is the 1st president in history who did not attend any Christmas religious observance.

He must miss Reverend Wright!

And finally, he is the 1st president to remain on vacation after a terrorist attack.

In these times 'I'll keep my God, my freedom, my gun and my money.

Anyone that supports this insanity can keep

"THE CHANGE".
