We'll see.

Its A cat 4 now and there is nothing to slow it down but the island of
Nova Scotia. I'd be screwing everything I own to the ground, if I were
Donny.


Our cold water will weaken it. The strongest one I can remember hitting here
was a low Cat 2 in 2003...Hurricane Juan.
Our mature city trees took a beating, although my hugh Lindens stood up to
it.

At The Atlanta Journal Constitution in Gingrey’s home state, writer
Jay Bookman takes issue with the increasing trend of Americans coming
to public meeting with deadly force in-tow. “It is attempted
intimidation,” he wrote. “It is an acknowledgment
that, lacking the intellectual firepower and ammunition to carry the
day, the person in question is prepared to try to settle the issue
using the kind of firepower and ammunition that any idiot can purchase
at a local gunshop.”

Bookman continues: “It also reflects a growing mindset among some that
the government just isn’t listening and thus must be made to listen,
one way or the other. There’s a fundamental childishness to that
attitude, a notion that equates listening to agreement. The person in
question is not prepared to accept the idea that having listened to
him, a majority of his fellow Americans might decide that he is wrong.
So he reserves the right to try to impose his view at the point of a
gun.”
Sooner rather than later, one of the gun-toting right-wing nincompoops
is going to open fire or "have an accident" or get into a brawl with law
enforcement.

When these armed idiots show up at public meetings at which the
president is going to appear, it increases the workload of the secret
service and local police forces.
Some kind of federal law restricting weapons within a couple thousand
feet of anywhere the President of member of congress may be is in order
This is something you couldn't trust the individual states to
pass/enforce.


I've been practicing so I can handle the impending invasion of the
Loogy/JustHate Zombies...


http://tinyurl.com/ma5znl


First five shot group at 100 yards from the new ZombieKiller Rifle. I was
plopped on a ground cloth and using the rifle's built-in sights. Took a
couple of shots first to sight in for elevation...there wasn't any wind.

Tomorrow I'm going to try some shots with the new scope I just attached.
Once I get used to it, I should be able to put five between the eyes of
your typical zombie at 100 yards.


I have an old semi-auto 22 cal rifle with a 6x scope that I haven't fired in
25 years or so.
I should get it out and do some practice myself.... just in case those
'zombies' make it across the border. ;-)



Whatever you do - don't clean the barrel! The first shot will do that
for you.

This could work to my advantage.
My next door neighbour just quoted me $6K to re-do my roof(s).
If the storm damages it...maybe my insurance company ...or the Federal Govt
might chip in, as they did after Juan smashed ashore here in 2003



$6K Canadian? Do you live in a dog house, dummy?

well let's see...did he suspend habeas corpus? nope. bush did.


When was that? You have said it several times.


why not read the controversy about his AG, gonzalez who wrote a memo
saying it was legal for the president to suspend habeas corpus

oh. right wingers don't read about what righties do to the
constitution. you just pay attention when moderates try to help the
middle class...THAT you call communism


Don't even bother talking about enemy combatants on foreign soil. That
is not covered.


try reading up on jose padilla. oh. you right wingers dont pay
attention if americans are tortured by right wing american presidents
'cuz that's done in the name of 'national security'.

uh huh.


did he extend unemployment benefits that the GOP wanted to cut off?
yep.


Every president since Eisenhower has extended unemployment during a
recession


funny that the GOP opposed it on 'moral hazard' theory grounds,
thinking the middle class is too lazy to work.



did he start to re-impose banking regulations that the GOP gutted?
yep.


Read the legislation, there were plenty of democrats involved with
this deregulation.


read the legislation. it was written by phil gramm, a texas
republican, and his wife, a sr. VP at enron. and we know how the GOP
loved enron. another chance to fleece the middle class.


did he fire the general bush had running the afghan war? yep.


How many generals have there been in the 18 years of the crusade?
Clinton and Bush fired some too


exactly my point. bush fired the generals, like shinseki, who would
have won the wars, because he listened, like the puppet he was, to
rumsfeld

Huh? Enron was a Clinton era scam.


ROFLMAO!! free market economics were an obsession with the GOP. hell,
even greenspan was amazed at how greedy the wall street tycoons were.

If your 401k tracked the Dow you made 8x on your money, even after the
crash in 2008..


i just lost 20 years of contributions. 8x zip is still zip.

funny how the banks are paying their CEO's hundreds of millions this
year in bonuses, isn't it...after they raided the middle class to pay
for them

and then got idiots like you to tell us how fortunate we are to be
raped by the rich

I suspect that the president is much safer with people who are
legally
carrying guns than with anyone else. In most states those who have
guns
have passed back ground checks, so have been "validated".- Hide

the biggest gun mass killer, the guy at VA tech...owned his guns
legally


33 dead people as a result.


thanks to the NRA


reply: yeah, the NRA sent the *******.


they enabled the *******. they're a bunch of amoral, pot bellied beer
swilling misanthropes who think the constitution should be limited to
the 2nd amendment


Reply:


You forgot to mention they will be the last line of defense when the
government starts collecting books they don't like and piling them in the
streets to be burned. What sounds familiar about that?


Steve


NRA members will be the first to help the gov't collect the books and
burn them. They don't like them smart alecky folks.


who was it that said 'when a dictatorship comes to america, it won't
be with the hammer and sickle...it'll come wrapped in the flag, and
carrying a cross'....

aesop?

Who said the man who controls the election is the man who counts the votes.
Lots of SEIU employees in every polling place I have worked for the last
twenty years.-


since about 7% of americans are unioned, but there is no penalty for
firing people who ATTEMPT to unionize, we know where the power in THAT
relationship is, don't we?

you probably believe in monsters under the bed, too.

IOW the solution to the problem of gun nuts is to make more gun nuts

golly. who cudda guessed?


Which is no longer a rare occurrence.


thanks to the NRA



*And they
think the idea of government taking guns is a far-off idea. *Yet, they are
incrementally taking freedom of the press and of speech.


now let's see... the GOP, which has always opposed any freedom, except
the 'freedom of guns' is the supporter of freedom because it allows
mass murder??

gee. great logic

A highly trained well outfitted military marching along through the

Then on a dark and stormy day, suddenly there appeared an unwashed rabble of
pot bellied beer swilling (actually, in those days, beer was present, but
hard liquor was the drink of the day) cigar smoking wingers armed with old
inaccurate guns intended for hunting squirrels. *Blew their red asses into

let alone the problems we face
