Are you really THAT stupid?

A lot of talk is swirling about the internets that Hillary pulled out a narrow win in New Hampshire due to her tearful comments the day before. Added to that, the two guys who were waving signs around at a rally stating "IRON MY SHIRTS" rallied the girl power to step up to the plate for the bat.

Let's watch the video:



OK. Notice the guys start yelling "IRON MY SHIRTS" for a bit before Hillary mentions to the stage hands to "turn up the lights". Really? You're on stage, running for President, and you want MORE attention drawn to your hecklers? I find that rather odd. Then, she makes the comment along the lines of "ah, the remnants of sexism still alive and well." BEFORE the lights come on in the audience. I've been on stage before with all the lights shining down on you. I can tell you my friends, you can't see shit past the stage; hell, I could barely see ON the stage. So you're telling me that Hillary could see and hear what the guys were saying? I don't buy it.

Now, for those folks in New Hampshire that were taken in by Hillary's crocodile tears and this setup on stage - are you really THAT stupid?

God help us if the rest of the country falls for her tripe.

Cancel CitiBank

CREDIT CARD PROCESSING COMPANY REJECTS FIREARMS INDUSTRY

REFUSES TO PROCESS TRANSACTIONS . . . Citi Merchant Services and First Data Corp. are refusing to process any credit card transactions between federally licensed firearms retailers, distributors and manufacturers -- a move which will severely limit available inventory of firearms and ammunition to military, law enforcement and law-abiding Americans.

The first company to be affected by this decision appears to be firearms distributor CDNN Sports Inc.

"We were contacted recently by First Data/Citi Merchant Services by a June Rivera-Mantilla stating that we were terminated and funds were being seized for selling firearms in a non-face-to-face transaction," said Charlie Crawford, president of CDNN Sports Inc. "Although perfectly legal, we were also informed that no transactions would be processed in the future, even for non-firearms. I find this very frightening."

To voice your concern to Citi Merchant Services and First Data Corp., please contact June Rivera-Mantilla at 631-683-7734 or her supervisor Robert Tenenbaum at 631-683-6570.

To change to an NSSF-affiliated credit card processing program, contact Payment Alliance International at 1-866-371-2273 (ext. 1131).



I've had CitiBank ever since I was in college from the early 90s. They are now cancelled. If they will not support legal gun purchases, I want nothing to do with them. I encourage you to do the same. Politely let them know why you are cancelling their services and let your voice be heard.

Cumming Woman Wins One Million Dollars

Another great headlinel, but it's a shame there was no picture.

Gladiators are back!

I enjoyed watching this series a decade or so ago - and now they're back. Cheesy interviews and all that, looks like they are making it more of a reality show or something along those lines.

But hey, who cares, the new Gladiator chicks are hot.

And wow, Helga is a LOT of woman.

Murder Suspect May Have Tried To Eat Victim

Eeeewww. And to think that we were just in Tyler today throwing lead downrange.


When authorities arrived at the home, they found Shearer's mutilated body, one ear boiling in a pot of water on the stove and some human flesh sitting on a plate with a fork on the kitchen table.
At least we had plenty of guns and ammo in the car. That is just flat out nasty and I hope this scumbag gets the needle, and gets it quick.

Hillary says she risked life on White House trips

First off - HAPPY NEW YEAR! I hope that 2008 is better for everyone than 2007 was.

Now, for a little fun to start your New Year....

You read the title right, folks. The Hildabeast says that her life was in danger during her First Lady trips while she was in the White House. Uh huh, yeah, right.

On Saturday night in Dubuque she pounced, arguing she risked her life on White House missions in the 1990s, including a hair-raising flight into Bosnia that ended in a "corkscrew" landing and a sprint off the tarmac to dodge snipers.
Now we can all tell this is just an out and out lie. No way anyone with ankles that fat is sprinting off anything.

The dictum around the Oval Office in the '90s, she added, was: "If a place was too dangerous, too poor or too small, send the first lady."
Did she really use the term "dictum" and Oval Office in the same sentence?? Shocking! And really, if this were remotely true, could you really blame Bill for sending Her Royal Thighness out somewhere where she could get killed?

Sadly for her, like everything else the Clinton's are involved in, the truth is somewhat different than what she would have us believe:

She was, in fact, leading a goodwill entourage that included baggy-pants funnyman Sinbad, singer Sheryl Crow and Clinton's daughter, Chelsea, then 15, according to an account of the March 1995 trip in her autobiography "Living History."
As the plane approached the runway, the pilot ordered the Clintons into the armored front of the plane, Clinton writes.
What's not clear is whether Sinbad or Crow were invited to the cockpit or had to brave it out in the unprotected rear.

A different kind of Christmas homecoming

Now, gee, where did that dust in the air come from? Something must have blown in from outside. Yeah, that's it.

Wrong, just so..... wrong

You know, on most days, I'm incredibly proud to be a Texan. It's clearly the greatest place on earth.

Today, however, isn't one of those days. After reading this headline:

Texas Adds 'Pole Tax' to Strip Clubs for $5-Per-Customer Levy

I'm about ready to start looking at other possibilities for a home.

I mean, come on guys, strippers need love too!

The Definition of "Irony"

A roofing company billionaire listed as the 91st richest man in the United States has died after a fall from a roof at his home.
Actually, he fell through the roof.
Police say 66-year-old Ken Hendricks was checking construction on a garage roof at his home in Rock, Wisc., on Thursday night when he fell through.

His company, ABC Supply, says he suffered massive head injuries.

Paging the 15th century, Paging the 15th century...


Wow. Hard to believe the NOW gang isn't all worked up over this...

What we have here is a picture of "Mohammed, 40, with his new 11-year-old wife, Ghulam." You read that right folks - 11.

Folks make fun of southern rednecks all the time 'bout dating your sister or whatever, but hell, at least the youngest age of legal consent in the south that I've ever seen has been 16.

11 is pretty sick, though. And it's legal, under Islamic law. I mean, hey, this Mohammed is just doing what the original Mohammed did, right?

Drive Someone Insane with Postcards - (eBay item 320196148761 end time Dec-23-07 10:03:28 PST)

This Christmas, give the gift of crazy. It just keeps on giving.
I will be spending the Christmas holiday in Poland in a tiny village that has one church with no bell because angry Germans stole it. Aside from vodka, there is not a lot for me to do.

During the course of my holiday I will send three postcards to one person of your choosing.

These postcards will be rant-ravingly insane, yet they will be peppered with unmistakable personal details about the addressee. Details you will provide me.
Tempting. Oh, so tempting.

Romney falters on gun control...

And really, is anyone surprised? This is a guy who loved the Brady bill and the AWB and only became a life member of the NRA when he started running for President.

His comments today on Meet the Depressed should make every gun owner cringe.

MR. RUSSERT: Let me turn to gun control. Here's the headline: "Romney retreats on gun control. Romney, who once described himself as a supporter of strong gun laws, is distancing himself from that rhetoric now as he attempts to court the gun owners who make up a significant force in Republican primary politics. In his '94" Senate race, Romney backed two gun-control measures strongly opposed by the National Rife Association and other" guns rights "groups: the Brady Bill, which imposed a five-day waiting period on gun sales, and a ban on certain assault weapons. `That's not going to make me the hero of the NRA,' Romney told the Boston Herald.'" "At another campaign stop" "he told reporters, `I don't line up with the NRA.'" Suddenly Romney decides to run for president and signs up for a lifetime membership in the NRA.


GOV. ROMNEY: You know, it's, it's wonderful, and you'll appreciate this. There is a great effort on the part of, in some cases, my opposition, in some cases, just folks that are interested in writing an interesting article to, to try and find any change at all. And my position on guns is the same position I've had for a long, long time. And, and that position is that I don't line up 100 percent with the NRA. I don't see eye to eye with the NRA on every issue. I.... Let's describe what it is. I signed--I would have supported the original assault weapon ban. I signed an assault weapon ban in Massachusetts governor because it provided for a relaxation of licensing requirements for gun owners in Massachusetts, which was a big plus. And so both the pro-gun and the anti-gun lobby came together with a bill, and I signed that. And if there is determined to be, from time to time, a weapon of such lethality that it poses a grave risk to our law enforcement personnel, that's something I would consider signing. There's nothing of that nature that's being proposed today in Washington. But, but I would, I would look at weapons that pose extraordinary lethality..... We also should keep weapons of unusual lethality from being on the street.
Note the Governor's use of the words "extraordinary lethality". Just what does that mean, I wonder? Because really, when you look at it, any firearm can be determined to posses "extraordinary lethality."

It really makes me wonder just who the kingmakers are in this country - I mean, who is responsible for giving us such shitty choices for the most important job in the world? Clearly, any of the Democrats would be FUBAR'd. And sadly, it looks like most of the Republican options would suck as pro gun candidates as well.

Dad sells son's 90-dollar video game online for more than 9000

If your heart has cockles (heehee), this story will warm them.

Submitted for your consideration: A schoolteacher dad goes all-out to get his hands on the very hard-to-find "Guitar Hero III" for the Nintendo Wii. He was one of the fortunate few to find a copy, and shelled out the 90 bucks for it.

Cut to dad coming home early one day:
Then, yesterday, I came home from work early and what do I find? My innocent little boy smoking pot in the back yard with two of his delinquent friends.
The penalty? Dad puts the coveted game up on eBay, and hooks some desperate Australian for $9100.00. Yes, that's right.

I like this dad, because he's not completely heartless - he'll still get the boy something for his Wii.
I am still considering getting him a game for his Nintendo. Maybe something like Barbie as the Island Princess or Dancing with the Stars ... I know he will just love them...

Hotel chain offers a room at the inn for Marys and Josephs

Just in time for the holidays - if you and your betrothed's names are Mary and Joseph, Travelodge has a room for you.
Almost 30 Josephs and Marys had already signed up for the free night's stay at the Travelodge, said Shakila Ahmed, a spokeswoman for the hotel chain.
Shakila Ahmed?
Ahmed said the offer, which will run from Christmas Eve to Twelfth Night -- December 24 to January 5 -- had been very well-received.

"We've had a lot of interest. I think people like the fact that it resonates with the Nativity story at a time when the actual meaning of Christmas often becomes forgotten in festive overkill," she said.
Perhaps I was hasty in my prejudice.

Nonetheless, it's a good thing for Joseph. I understand Mary's been riding his ass for days.

California Budget Crisis

I'm sure, dear readers, that California's budget crisis has NOTHING to do with the way the state coddles and encourages illegals to take advantage of the state's welfare, educational, and medical programs.

Really. Quite sure.

SF weapons training



Now THIS is highly entertaining stuff. Make sure you read the scrolling text at the bottom of the screen for that extra added effect.

Pilfered shamelessly from Cowboy Blob's site...

And oh yeah, if you're at work, turn the volume waaaaaaaay down.

No comment required



Other than to say, Sean Penn is an idiot.

Omaha shootings renew debate on mall security


Such incidents are 'lessons' for terrorists and deranged people, according to Charles Bahn, a New York forensic psychologist. 'They show that the mall is a place where you can make an impression, and where you can find multiple victims.'
This just in: Mall Ninjas are not able to stop armed crazy people. Why? Because they're unarmed, and certain malls don't allow customers to be armed.
That makes PERFECT sense, doesn't it, boys and girls?

Grapevine Mills Mall in Grapevine, TX is posted to specifically disallow the LEGAL carrying of firearms in that mall. That means there are no legally armed citizens in that mall.

What does that tell the bad guys? "Come on in and help yourselves - nobody but sheep here, so help yourselves to whatever you'd like."

Stupid is as stupid does, ma'am.

So, where'd I put that...?

Just think of the possibilities of that memo you can't find chastising an employee for not quite doing their job...

A long-missing Michelangelo sketch for the dome of St. Peter's Basilica, possibly his last design before his death, has been discovered in the basilica's offices, the Vatican newspaper said Thursday.
Yeah, you read that right - found in the office.

Michelangelo apparently drew the sketch for the stonecutters because he was dissatisfied with how with some blocks of travertine were cut, the newspaper said.
Just stop and think about that for awhile the next time you can't find that doo-dad that rolled under your desk.
