How Many Vacations?

Posted by The Cat Herder on Saturday, August 14, 2010 12:51:40 PM
     Boy, I wish I could take vacations every week or two like the Obamas - I guess I'm just too busy working for a living!

GO ABBY! GO ABBY!

Posted by The Cat Herder on Saturday, June 12, 2010 2:15:05 AM
     None of this "nanny state" BS - I say Abby Sunderland is a good girl, a fine sailor, and an incredible example for all of us.  Leave her parents alone, and so what if she didn't make it around the world this time - she'll do it next time!

As I've Said Before, California Is A Great Place To Be FROM!

Posted by The Cat Herder on Thursday, June 03, 2010 1:23:49 AM
     Look at the keynote paragraph from today's AP story:

"The California Assembly on Wednesday passed legislation prohibiting pharmacies and grocery, liquor and convenience stores from giving out plastic bags. The bill also calls for customers to be charged for using store-issued paper bags."

The state of California is in critical condition financially and is about to go over the cliff, and the legislature thinks nannying people into not using plastic bags is an important thing to be doing right now???

     Then again, let them go over the cliff -- it's not called "the left coast" for nothing.

What Crisis? Let's Help Them Out!

Posted by The Cat Herder on Tuesday, June 01, 2010 12:04:52 AM
     An Israeli "crisis" because they took on a convoy of ships headed for Gaza?  As one of my friends would say, "Good On Ya, Mate!"  I'm sick and tired of all the crap that Israel has to take from the world, and even from us now that that quietly pro-Muslim Kenyan is running the show.  If strategy were under my purview, this would be my plan from now on:

1. Tell whoever ran that flotilla that they're lucky we didn't torpedo the ships!
2.  Fire up the Israeli military and take back the Gaza Strip - shouldn't have given it away in the first place.  Did anyone notice that as soon as they got the land, the peace promise went away and they started firing rockets?
3.  Send the word out to the whole Arab world - "You believe we have nukes? Attack our country or our people one more time and we'll answer your question!"

The ObaMadness Continues...

Posted by The Cat Herder on Friday, May 28, 2010 3:05:09 AM
     A six-month stop for all off-shore oil drilling activities?  Isn't that like ending all highway traffic because a really bad multi-car pileup happened?  And of course, it's only stopping US, not any of the other countries that are drilling in the Gulf (like Cuba, Venezuela, China - the communist dictatorships that BO thinks we should just talk to all the time.  Please come quickly, November, so we can take back the House and Senate with conservative votes, and kick that Kenyan to the curb before he destroys America completely!

Is It Just Me...

Posted by The Cat Herder on Sunday, May 16, 2010 1:38:07 AM
     ...or am I watching the tail wag the dog in the Gulf of Mexico?  I'm just starting to wonder about the sequence of events:

     1. For months before he's voted in, Barack Hussein Obama attacks oil.

     2. For months after he's voted in, Barack Hussein Obama attacks oil.

     3. After our economy ends up on its back, Barack Hussein Obama finally starts to change course, and says he'd favor some drilling for our own oil and some nuclear power construction (things our capitalist society could do well).

     4. Then the oil platform blows up and sinks, causing the deaths of a number of workers, a huge oil spill, lots of industry people scratching their heads about how so many safeguards could all fail at once, and a succession of attempts to cap off the oil flow fail.

     5. Barack Hussein Obama snarls at the companies involved and changes his mind back to his original position, making his enviro-wacko friends happy.

     6. Then a Venezuelan oil platform fails and sinks, but lots of alarms go off, all the connections are properly disconnected, everybody gets off the platform safely, and there is no loss of life or damage to the environment, making everyone think, "Wow, that socialist country did everything better, didn't they?"

Of course, I could be mistaken, but it just looks to me like a lot of behind-the-scenes stagecraft went on here...

Love Those "V" Writers!

Posted by The Cat Herder on Thursday, May 13, 2010 1:51:46 AM
     I hope people are watching "V" very closely and paying attention to what they see, because the writers are doing a great job of showing us liberalism in action!

     A couple of episodes ago, when a typhoon devastated a small country and human governments weren't able to quickly respond in bringing its power grid back up, the Visitors stepped in with their advanced technology, called "blue energy," and saved the day.  Was this done because they "are of peace, always"?  Of course not - eventually humans would become dependent on blue energy, and the V's could take it back to exert control.

     Then, in last night's episode, we saw demonstrated the liberal's use of the "straw man" (the intentionally created crisis), or in this case, the straw woman (straw lizard?).  Anna needed to do something to incite mankind to hate the Fifth Column (anti-Anna Visitors, similar to anti-Obama conservatives) as much as she does, so she attacked her own daughter and told the world the FC did it, and if that wasn't enough, said they no longer feel safe on Earth so they'll leave!  Predictably, people and governments begged the V's to stay, and agreed to go after the FC, including the media guy who has been constantly talking about how strong his journalistic ethics are, but continues to opine and spin his stories (pure fiction there, eh?) in support of the V's.

     Next week is the season finale - stay tuned!

Schools Are Stupid (x3)

Posted by The Cat Herder on Sunday, May 09, 2010 5:02:23 PM
     From this week's news reports:

     A 10-year-old third grade girl was suspended for a week because one of her friends gave her a Jolly Rancher candy, and that violates a no-candy policy prompted by the nanny state!

     On Cinco de Mayo, three Texas students removed a Mexican flag that was being flown higher than the American flag, and now they are in trouble.

     But in California, also on CdM, some other students got in trouble for intentionally wearing representations of the American Flag!  Come on now, who's country is this - America's or Mexico's???

Listen and Learn, People!!!

Posted by The Cat Herder on Friday, April 16, 2010 11:44:02 PM
      I watched Greta van Susteren tonight, talking to a Democrat pollster that I've seen before (Doug somebody).  His analysis of the current election cycle tells him (thank God!) that Democrats are gonna get creamed in November!  When the questions came about how to avoid that end, his answers were straightforward - they should adopt some of the stronger Tea Party positions, step back from the taxing, regulating, and spending positions they've taken, etc.  In other words, they should PRETEND TO BE REPUBLICANS!!!

     Now, people, will you please learn from this?  Democrats have to deceive voters in order to win elections, because they can't win by coming out and stating their taxing, regulating, and spending positions.  They have to act like a Republican (usually reasonable, responsible, and conservative), because most people naturally vote toward the center-right.

     Don't buy the crap when the campaigning starts.  In almost all cases, if there's a D by the name, the best course for America is to vote against it.

Yet Another Letter

Posted by The Cat Herder on Wednesday, March 31, 2010 9:46:41 AM
     Just to follow up: I got a letter from the Census Bureau telling me that my census form would come the following week.  Then I got the census form, which wasn't particularly intrusive so I filled it out and mailed it back.  Then, just a few days ago, I got another letter from the Census Bureau reminding me that the form had been sent.

     Are these people stupid, inattentive, or in cahoots with the broke Postal Service to keep them afloat?

Another Pain in My Political Butt!

Posted by The Cat Herder on Sunday, March 21, 2010 1:13:40 AM
     I got SO EXCITED a few weeks ago when I drove home, listening to the Hugh Hewitt show, and heard an old friend named Jimmy Lakey announcing that he was jumping into the 7th Congressional race here, to do his best to take out Ed Perlmutter in November and get the 7th back into wise Republican hands, the way it originally started back in the '00s.

     Then I went to our caucus a few nights ago and got SLAMMED with the news that Jimmy had already dropped out and endorsed someone else whose name I have never heard before.  In a word, AAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHH!!!

Telling, and Telling, and Telling Again

Posted by The Cat Herder on Tuesday, March 09, 2010 11:48:10 PM
     For years, I've heard that the census was coming.  Then the government spent millions on Super Bowl ads to let me know the Census was coming.  I heard reports that the forms were coming in the middle of March.  Yesterday I got a Census Bureau envelope in the mail, and I thought the form had come a little early.  It was a letter telling me that the form was coming in a week.  How much money have the Obamites wasted so far, and I haven't even seen the form yet?  I hope it has questions I can answer...

I'll Even Buy You The Suitcase, Sean!!!

Posted by The Cat Herder on Tuesday, March 09, 2010 2:35:30 AM
     I know, I'm not supposed to hate anyone - but Sean Penn is an arrogant, ungrateful pig!  His latest pearl of excrement is his fawning over Venezuelan DICTATOR Hugo Chavez, and how Americans should go to prison for calling that oh-so-wonderful leader a DICTATOR, because it's all lies spread by our media, so he says.  Here's what I think, Sean: If you love Hugo Chavez and Venezuela that much, then just PACK YOUR BAGS AND GET OUT OF MY COUNTRY!  And by the way, since you'll be moving to a socialist paradise, leave all those millions behind that you made in our horrible capitalist system - you wouldn't want to keep that filthy lucre anyway.

     And Sean - Chavez is a DICTATOR!  (There, slap the cuffs on me, ya scum!)
