Tropical Storm Edouard aims for Texas, La. coast

Current track and projected track shows the majority of the storm will hit the coast of TX, with some overflow into LA.

Rural volunteer fire depts. struggle to recruit

I once was a founding member of the local VFD.  However these departments are so riddled with local politics and local infighting I resigned years ago as did many other founding members.  I suspect the case here locally is prevalent on a national level.

In US, gas prices mean more riders, fewer buses

So much for the vaunted solution of ‘mass transportation’ in the few areas that offer it.  It is offered here locally on a very limited scale, so if you aren’t going to one of the malls or the local metro downtown are you’re right out of luck.

Texas defies World Court, Bush on execution

Good for TX!  If there was ever someone who needs turned into ‘compost’ its Jose Medellin.

Some see red over proposed ‘green’ resort in Maine

More urban sprawl, this time under the guise of being a ‘green thing’.  Remember the color ‘green’ it the basic color of US money.

Rookie Obama’s Reprehensible Race Card Playing

Quote:  It’s an evil, but interesting, strategy.  It lets Obama have it both ways. If he loses, he can blame white racism.  If he wins, he can claim that he won despite white racism and would have won bigger but for white racism.

Since ‘Barack Hussein Obama’ is a Dem Commie his hypocrisy knows no bounds nor is he bound by any code of ethics or morals except for the, “WIN AT ANY PRICE CREDO.”

Why McCain Will Win

Quote:  This is why John McCain, unless he selects a serial killer as his vice president running mate, is likely to be the next President of the United States of America.

Given what we have to work with in the 2008 race for POTUS a serial killer as a VP choice doesn’t seem beyond the realm of possibilities.  The article actually boils down to the concept that most white and it counts Hispanics as whites won’t vote for ‘Barack Hussein Obama’ for POTUS.  I happen to concur with that scenario, but that still leaves us with a RINO as POTUS serial killer VP or not.

Tale of Two (Sanctuary) Cities: Don’t Re-Elect Their Mayors, Indict Them

I’ve said this from the onset of this conspiracy to violate US law.  However so far none of the the ‘powers that be’ in D.C. has had the balls to meet this flouting of US law head on.  Maybe that’s because that’s because those ‘powers that be’ agree with what’s going on is these so call ‘sanctuary cities’.

Wealthy Begin Feeling Pain In Down Economy…  

 

Recycling Police: San Francisco may impose $1000 fines for failure to sort trash…

Refuse to pay the fine and sit in jail forcing the city to care for you.  Of course they might take your home to pay the fine.  Such is the level that thievery has reached in many cities in the US.

ROUND 2: House GOP to continue revolt Monday…   WARN: Lift drilling ban or risk shutdown…

Ya ever notice how when the Repub’s are in power in Congress the Dem’s Commies scream about how everything must have bipartisanship approval.  Then contrast what happens when the Dem’s Commies are in power and it their way or the highway.  I’ll give you a perfect example.  Let’s us the ‘way-back machine’ to go back to Bush I’s term as POTUS.  The Democratic Commie controlled Congress told Bush I that there would have to be a tax increase or they would shut the government down.  Bush I caved in and raised taxes and that alone cost him the next election after he made that famous ‘read my lips statement’  Read my lips: no new taxes – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia  about taxes.

I say if the Dem’s Commies want to play hardball then so be it.  Let’s get out in the gravel parking lot in front of the entire nation and go for it.  Don’t back down to Dem Commie intimidation and in fact give it back to them a 100 fold!  I’m an old parking lot brawler and I always went for the throat!

Man may lose home over unpaid parking ticket…

You have got to be $hitting me!  Hell they didn’t even do this in the old USSR!

More than 56,000 in USA infected with AIDS each year…

The movie And the Band Played On shows what happens when politics get in the way of common sense.  If the first of those who came down with AIDS/HIV had been quarantined like was done with Typhoid Mary and all subsequent cases as well we might have gotten a handle on HIV and AIDS in the early stages of its development.  But no that couldn’t be done because ‘people have rights’!  Never mind that ‘those rights’ put thousands of other people in danger.
