Strange how things just kind of slip, slide or sashay their way into Executive Orders.

It’s the fine print that gets you every time

(c)  In applying these principles, each agency is directed to use the best available techniques to quantify anticipated present and future benefits and costs as accurately as possible.  Where appropriate and permitted by law, each agency may consider (and discuss qualitatively) values that are difficult or impossible to quantify, including equity, human dignity, fairness, and distributive impacts.

What else is lurking in all the good changes that are coming our way…

God created heaven, and earth. He did not create left, right or the political spin of the tragedy which occured today in Arizona. People, both in  Public life as well as Private were murdered and wounded in cold blood.

Was the heinous crime preplanned or a spur of the moment opportunity for an anarchist’s attempt at fifteen minutes or longer of fame.  I don’t know. Lives have been irrevocably changed and the blame game went from zero to red lined in nothing flat. The dead have yet to be mourned and the wounded have barely been tended.

And yet harsh vitriolic blame has been cast like acid against skin with no thought of the consequences for those words. Words that will be used many times hence. Words that can never be retrieved. Use the words to plunge and turn the knife of blame in hope of discrediting someone.

Now if the time to mourn lives cut short. Now is the time to pray for the wounded. Now is the time to light a candle and pray for safe passage of souls.  Justice will come. May it be swift and true.

Possible Stolen Votes

There need to be some changes on how voting machines are certified and strenuous penalties for anyone sabotaging any portion of the election process and validation of votes.

Thanks to Big Government.

To Cut NPRs funding You Cut

Wonder how long Georgie aka Mr. Spooky-do will continue to fund NPR if all the Federal goodies are taken away including any special tax-exempt perks and deals.

Give me a R E A S O N and does this meet the requirements. Or just really bad judgment.

The Effect

The Cause

Found this bit of information this morning at American Thinker (which disappeared) and then at Weasel Zippers (Where someone tracked the cached page down). If someone has the ability to snag the article before it’s permanently removed from the cache, please do.

Another reason to vote for Carly.

How do you say Howdy Y’all in Chinese?

Now I know why the Offshore Ban is being lifted.

Our mineral and energy assets need to stay in the USA’s control and not shipped off-shore.

Another Nail

Any way to stop this? The Carpetbaggers have taken over in America.

So many distractions and behind the curtains goings on.
Where do we target our energies before this country is strip mined?

There are still men and women out there who place truth and fact above money and false gods.

Nailed to the Barn Door

There had a been a time when a person protected their reputation, integrity and name against being called charlatan, scam artist or thief. Especially in the Scientific Community.

Mr. Lewis has thrown down a rather public gauntlet to those seeking to profit from the substance we are all made of named Carbon.

I found this link over at Breibart’s Place.

This concerns me more than most of the garbage coming out of DC since I work in the industry.

Deliberate destruction of an industry for political gains and payback goes against everything we stand for as a free nation and people. The regime in power at the moment reminds me of Sweet Haven from the Popeye movie. Come the November elections with a great deal of hard work and some help from the Big Guy Upstairs, here’s to hobbling and maybe a pride cut or two or three (maybe more) against the insanity running amok.

I don’t know who said this, it came in an email from a friend. If I knew, I would give the credit due them.

Some people have the vocabulary to sum up things in a way
you can understand them. This quote came from the  Czech
Republic . Someone over there has it figured out. We have a
lot of work to do.

“The danger to  America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency.

It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails  America . Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool.  It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president.”

On this 5^th of July 2010, Two Hundred and Thirty-Four years and one day after Fifty-Six men threw down the gauntlet and declared this Country free from outside tyrannies and oppressions, we find ourselves close to the precipice once again.

There are those elected and non-elected persons who seek to bind the American People in shackles and the yoke of slavery once more. Only this time it will not be on the auction block, it is from onerous laws being made by those we elected to do work on our behalf.

Our Creator made us equal and grants certain rights to us at birth. The Constitution protects those unalienable rights of Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.

There are those who seek to weaken our rights and freedoms as a free Nation and People by enacting laws and regulations our Founders and Ancestors fought a revolution against.

The laws and regulations will violate those freedoms in the guise of being fair.

The laws and regulations purport to help those with a perceived need.

The laws and regulations created that need for help.

When a central government regulates a stranglehold to restrict any one, any group, any local or regional government from solving or taking care of a issue or disaster, there is a serious problem.

Do they fear the locals might out perform the central government in a proficient, economical and timely manner? Or do they fear the locals will take away the credit or glory for the rescue from said disaster?

I shake my head and wonder why some far away entity believes (I will not say thinks as to think means there in rational thought involved) that I, and others like me, want to be taken care of by anyone but our family or friends during our lives. Last I looked, I left my father’s house and stood on my own. I paid my own bills, worked hard for my money, kept my own house, loved, cared for and raised my family in sickness and in health.

Not once did I ask the government for help to do what is my right, responsibility and duty.

There are those in this country who wish to absolve themselves of their responsibilities and duties as citizens and adults. The government has made it easy to slip into bondage with promises of WE will take care of your every need, want or desire.

Those promises to take care of those in government bondage come from the sweat and hard work of others. From long hours put in to provide for a home and food for their families. From sweat, sore muscles and denying themselves rest or luxuries to provide a future for their families. From the diligence in saving hard earned money for the future for themselves and their families.

Nowhere in that document signed July 4^th, 1776, does it say the elected government is to take the result and increase from hard diligent work to give it to those who did not work or earn that result or increase.

Nowhere in that document does it say our elected government must control every drop of water, every blade of grass, and every bit of air we breathe or what we use to conduct our lives or businesses. Nowhere in that document does it promise to provide all manner of support to its citizens.

Nowhere in that document does it allow the elected government total and absolute control over all aspects of this country or her people.

We are not a nation of people who will be enslaved by the government we elected to do work on our behalf.

There are those who seek to silence this nation’s people by using guile, subterfuges, calumnies and distortions of truth. There are those who are rewriting our history for their own economic and political ends. There are those who seek power, control and monetary gain and will stop at nothing to obtain everything they consider to be theirs by right.

We were a nation that had been lazing away and caught sleeping by thieves in broad daylight. Luckily we woke up. Hopefully in time to undo the ropes of bondage, set right and repair the damage done.

This Nation is a Republic. We are a Nation of Law and an Honorable People.

So on this 5^th of July 2010, Two Hundred, Thirty-Four years and one day after the Declaration of Independence was sounded to the world, the gauntlet once again is thrown down to end the inside tyrannies and coming oppressions.
