Blah.  I think I still have burnout syndrome from the last election so it’s hard getting into gear every week.  So bear with my laziness and just read the links I’ve decided are cool.

This is just golden.  Enviromentalists get all uppity about what they claim is some illegal logging in a nature preserve in Poland.  They demand justice.  Then police find the culprit.  Hint…he’s short, furry, big teeth, big tail and his name is synonomous with female genitalia.

NOOOOO!!!!!  Ok now they’ve gone too far!!  I can stand stock portfolios falling.  I can tolerate relatively high unemployment.  I can even overlook homelessness.  But what I absolutely refuse to accept is when the demand for breast implants starts falling because it’s a luxury they can’t afford.  I demand a bailout!!!  Just you try looking a boobie in the face….er, nipple and tell me you don’t want to see more of them.

The Chinese have invented a new type of toilet for their space flights…..this one goes right up your ass.  Now they CLAIM it doesn’t hurt.  But having looked at the thing I’m left with two possibilities.  Either they are flat out lying, or the Chinese routinely stick large obtrusive crap up their rectums on a daily basis.

Ok now I’ve covered at least one link for every “naughty” bit of anatomy….moving on…

Want a 2009 calendar that harkins back to the old WWII era posters of pin-up gals??  Plus it goes towards a good cause.  So buy one today!  And then buy one for a wounded vet!

Obama claims He’s going to outlaw pork.  Captain Ed makes the correct observation that as President, Obama doesn’t have the legal ability to do that.  More importantly I think is that the party in control never wants to get rid of pork, because when they are in control they get THEIR pork.  So that pork don’t fly in my eyes.  More than likely the Democrats are looking to create new rules that hides their pork but allows them to flaunt any pork Republicans try to go for.

As some know, I have a MN Firearm Carry permit (and also New Hampshire…Utah to be coming soon).  Some have asked me why I carry and toss out all sorts of the standard objections.  Which I’m sure to their uneducated mind sound rather intelligent (hint: they’re not), so I had planned on writing up something that boils down the explanations I’ve had to several times.  Fortunately, someone has kinda done it already.  Doesn’t touch on every issues I would mention (so I may do my own in the future) but he also touches on several issues I generally skip.

The funds to prop up ethanol production are running low, article makes that sounds like it’s a bad thing.

Good news, the US deported 46% more illegals in 2008 than in 2007.  Finish the fence, and a few more years of this rate of deportation and suddenly that old (and stupid) argument that you “can’t deport all 12 million” is rendered moot.

Speaking of the fence, here’s a link to a map of where the fence has been completed and where it hasn’t.  Unfortunately what they don’t show is where that “fence” is a simple barbed wire fence more suitable for cattle ranches than the “Israeli-style” fence that was promised and intended by Congress.  I’ve seen plenty of anecdotal evidence that more of it is the former than the latter.

Although one thing that doesn’t help the immigration problem is when border enforcement agents are too afraid of criminal charges to do their job, or even return fire when under attack.

Still don’t understand why Congress and/or Obama/Bush feel the need to do something to stimulate the economy.  Really the best thing they could do is either sit down and shut up, or else slash tax rates across the board.  I suppose the historical evidence that government intervention has never helped a recession/depression isn’t concrete enough for them.

The 100,000th business has signed up to use the E-Verify program, and by the end of this week federal contractors are also required to use it….which of course means Congress should kill it right??

Good to know…Obama’s pick for Department of Education Secretary has a success rate of 17%.  Now I went to a public school so I’m not so good with the book learning but I think that means there are a lot of kids that can’t read.

Obama learns the job isn’t so easy now that He actually has to show results in an intelligent fashion.  And here I thought He was part of the reality based community.

Ok, even as partisan as I am, it’s pretty unfair to call the Obama Presidency a failed Presidency when he…you know hasn’t even taken office yet.  But apparently the New York Times doesn’t think so.  Yeah, you heard that right…the Grey Lady….the chief Democrat propagandist….is already worrying about Obama being a one term president.

Death row inmate rips out his own eye and eats it.  Huh….kinda makes one wonder what his requested last meal is gonna be.  Yeah and before you scream at me for being insensitive, let’s remember what he’s on death row for.  He killed his wife, her daughter, and their son and then ripped out their hearts.  I suggest instead of lethal injection, have him cut out his own heart.
