HILLARY THE PHONY
ABC news has tapes of 24 meetings of the board of directors of Wal-Mart. And
just who do you think was serving on that board during these meetings? Why,
none other than the smartest woman in the world, Hillary Clinton.
View their story. Why are the
tapes of these board meetings important? Because the board was discussing
actions to be taken to fight unions who might want to organize Wal-Mart
workers. Hillary? She sat there and never uttered a word. Nothing. Nada.
The Wal-Mart board of directors was plotting against unions, and Hillary did
nothing. That was then, and this is now. Now we have Hillary the absolute
champion of all things union. Hillary the would-be president who wants to allow
workers to unionize without even holding a union election, couldn't find it in
her to stand up for these union members when Wal-Mart was planning against them.
Message? She's a phony; a complete phony. She will do anything to acquire
power. Anything to realize her decades-old goal of becoming the most powerful
person in the world. Will union supporters and members see this? Probably so.
The question is whether or not they will ignore it for the sake of political
expediency.
For the record ... any company that plots against unionization is just fine
with me.
BILL WANTS TO SAVE THE PLANET
The beauty of the Internet is that you can't get away with anything. When
Bill Clinton makes a speech in Denver, it is mere hours before the world knows
what he said. Like this, for instance ...
Bill tried to characterize what the US and other industrialized nations need to
do to combat global warming: "We just have to slow down our economy and cut
back our greenhouse gas emissions 'cause we have to save the planet for our
grandchildren."
Wait. We have to slow down our economy? We must stop progress, we must slow
down achievement? We have to do this so that the warmers can sleep at night in
good conscience. If you haven't been paying attention thus far, perhaps now you
can see that this whole global warming fraud is about more than our
environment. It is not about saving the trees for our grandchildren. It is an
attack on capitalism. It is an attack on individuality and achievement. It is
an attack on your freedom as individuals to decide whether or not you want to
put a heat lamp on the porch of your family-owned restaurant to keep your
customers warm. This is absurd. Note, please, that we're getting this line of
BS from the husband of our future president. If this is the way Bill feels,
just imagine what Hillary would propose to "save our planet." Here's a woman
that isn't all that fond of the free market in the first place. Can't you just
see her licking her chops at the prospect of using the environment as an excuse
to continue with her attacks on capitalism?
Is some of this sinking in? Do we dare hope that some of the unmarried
females who make up her power base are starting to have some second thoughts?
STILL MORE FROM THE AIRPLANE ON THE TREADMILL THINGY
You just can't believe some of the amazingly stupid email I've been receiving
from true pedigreed idiots over this
airplane-on-a-treadmill bit.
OK .. now put away all rational thought. Try to imagine that you are
absurdly ignorant and that you haven't had a rational thought since third
grade. You're going to have to adopt this mental state to understand the
argument that is being presented by people who were dismayed to see the airplane
take off.
Ready? Here we go. They're saying that the Mythbusters guys cheated because
they allowed the airplane to move relative to the earth. Yeah ... as hard as it
is to accept, there are actually people out there who are so dismayingly stupid
that they think that the rules of the game were that the airplane would not be
allowed to roll forward when the propeller started turning.
How can our country survive this level of stupidity?
HOMELAND SECURITY GRANT FUNDS ISLAMIC SYMPATHIZER
Tufts University received a $1.6 million grant from the Department of
Homeland Security in 2006. The grant money was supposed to be used to promote
"inter-faith and intercultural dialogue." Well isn't that special. Now we've
learned that Tufts University decided to use the taxpayer money
to sponsor a dinner and dialogue with a radical Islamic sympathizer, Edina
Lekovic.
Why do I say radical Islamic sympathizer? Because Lekovic goes as far as to
defend Osama bin Laden. She was the former managing editor of a Muslim
publication at UCLA. As an editor, the paper published an editorial praising
and defending Osama bin Laden. It said, "When we hear someone refer to the
great Mujahid, Osama bin Laden, as a 'terrorist,' we should defend our brother
and refer to him as a freedom fighter; someone who has forsaken wealth and power
to fight in Allah's cause and speak out against oppressors. We take these
stances only to please Allah."
And that's just the beginning, folks. Remember ... this is YOUR taxpayer money
that is being spent to pay this Islamic goonette to speak at one of our taxpayer
supported universities. Not only your money, but spent by the very agency that
is supposed to be protecting us from people like Edina Lekovic.
I would like to see every one of the presidential candidates weigh in on this
one ... .sooner rather than later.
COURT MARSHALLED FOR SHOOTING INTRUDER
An 80-year-old man, retired from the Special Forces, was on a trial of his
peers for
"failing to use a weapon of sufficient caliber" in the shooting of an
intruder who broke into his home in Knoxville, TN.
OK ...let's review. The guy, Smokey Taylor, is 80. He is a retired Special
Forces Weapons Sergeant with extensive combat experience during Korea and
Vietnam. An intruder breaks in and threatens him with a knife. What does
Smokey do?
Shoots him right between the eyes with a .22 caliber pistol. The only
problem is that the bullet bounces off the intruder's head. It knocks him down
and he goes crawling out the door and down the street where Knoxville police
apprehend him.
So now Smokey has been brought before a trial of his peers. The charges? He
should have saved the county and taxpayers the expense of a trial for this
creep. You see, Smokey could have used a .45 or .38 and the intruder would have
been DRT. But he was acquitted of all charges and given a round of applause.
Don't ya just love it?
Let's chip in and buy this stud a .45.
THE RIGHT TO SLEEP
Panhandlers in Ottawa (that's in Canada) have decided that it is a
fundamental human right to get a good night's sleep. The Ottawa panhandlers
union – yes, they actually have a union – has hired a lawyer
to fight a fence that the City of Ottawa erected in a downtown pedestrian
underpass. The city put up the fence to stop the great unwashed from
sleeping there.
The union argues that the fence threatens the safety and security of many
homeless people who rely on the underpass for shelter when it is cold. They
argue that the poor are citizens too and are therefore guaranteed the right to
safety and security. This is the argument that they plan to make to the
Canadian Human Rights Commission. Oh God, here we go with this Human Rights
Commission again. How long until we get one of those in this country?
ROBIN HOOD GOVERNMENT SCHOOLS
The residents of Wimberley, Texas are protesting the
Texas "share-the-wealth" program when it comes to their government schools.
Wimberley is one of more than 160 high-wealth school districts that are required
by law to share their property tax revenue with other districts. The law was
passed in 1993 after a series of court orders said that the government had to
"equalize the wealth." But residents and teachers are insisting that this is
causing their own schools to suffer with insufficient pay for teachers and
dilapidated facilities. Wimberley sends an estimated $3.1 million in local
property taxes to the state for this share-the-wealth program. That's one sixth
of the district's total revenue.
Now the vice president of the Wimberley school board says that they are no
longer going to pay the state. He says that it's unconstitutional and he will
go to jail if he has to. The state education commissioner says they will
dissolve the Wimberley school district and force the students to attend school
in a neighboring district, if Wimberley withholds the funds.
Are you thinking what I'm thinking? These Wimberly wimps should be
withdrawing their funding of schools altogether. The answer here is private
schools. Just withdraw entirely from the government school system. Lower your
school taxes as far as the courts will permit .. and then start putting the rest
of your money where your mouths are ... private schools.
THE NATION'S MOST MISERABLE CITIES
Forbes Magazine has published a list of America's most miserable cities.
Before we get into this story any further, here's the actual list:
1. Detroit, MI
2. Stockton, CA
3. Flint, MI
4. New York City
5. Philadelphia, PA
6. Chicago, IL
7. Los Angeles, CA
8. Modesto, CA
9. Charlotte, NC
10. Providence, RI
Forbes defines misery as a state of great unhappiness and emotional
distress. Forbes used criteria such as unemployment, taxes, commute times,
crime, pollution and weather. Now you can draw your own conclusions by looking
at the list of cities above .. but with only a few exceptions from the list ... I
think that I've noticed some commonalities. Strong union presence, for
instance, and liberal politicians. Just something for you to think about.

Undoubtedly she was educated in that very school.
