Barky Obummer's Priorities
Yesterday afternoon, when Barack Hussein Obama made his initial public mention of the shootings/murders at Fort Hood, he FIRST spent two and half minutes thanking the Department of the Interior, plus giving a "shout-out" to Joe Medicine Crow, smiling and waving while he did so. THEN, our so-called Commander-in-Chief deigned to mention the violence at Fort Hood.
And guess what. In all of the replays on national news, including FOX, the FIRST two and a half minutes have been edited out, so that we have the impression that Barack Hussein Obama spoke only about the shootings/murders at Fort Hood.
Guess what else. Someone captured the actual broadcast.
Notice the news banner, listen to his words, watch the timer.
The news from Ft. Hood should have been at the top of the list for the
Commander-in-Chief of our Armed Forces. And that's BEFORE the media manipulation.
I am outraged at the insensitivity of Barack Hussein Obama, POTUS and Commander-in-Chief (as he keeps reminding us). And I am outraged at the continuing manipulation by the media to make this arrogant community organizer look competent.
A Disconnected President
NOTE: Joe Medicine Crow is a Medal of Freedom winner - NOT a Medal of Honor winner.

The Photo Op Prez
For the 1st time in 10 months Barack Hussein Obama has taken the time from his busy schedule of campaigning, golfing, etc. to pay his final respects to American troops KIA.
What took him so long?
Villainous Company notes that the ban on photos at Dover was lifted back in February, 8 months ago ... and he could have gone to Dover 10 months ago. Oh, but there would have been no cameras allowed then.
So begins the politicizing the deaths of American troops.

Blood Stripe
The "blood stripe" runs down each trouser leg of the dress blues worn by noncommissioned officers, staff noncommissioned officers and officers. The solid red stripe became part of the uniform in 1849.
Today, it serves to honor the memory of fallen comrades.
Ultimate Thrill Ride
One of my most favorite things at WDW is
But this tops even that:
Holy Crow!! What a ride!
And imagine the look on the pilot's face as the 'backseat' blasted off.
But this tops even that:
A civilian joyriding with his Air Force pilot friend, accidentally grabbed the eject lever while trying to brace himself.
He was instantly fired through the aircraft's perspex canopy and blasted 320 ft (100m) into the sky by the rocket-powered chair.
He then floated down to the ground with a parachute that opened automatically.Story Here

Don't Worry, Be Stupid
I read the Disney newsgroups because I'm a Disney freak and reading what others have to say about their experiences can be entertaining and enlightening. And sometimes infuriating.
Like this excerpt from a recent trip report:
So what's my problem with this?
# 1 : Letting the 5-year old pilot the craft after signing the paperwork specifically stating you wouldn't. The paperwork is there to protect you, your family, the other guests, and Cast Members. Had you/your wife/your son had an accident I doubt your trip report would have been as 'cute' as you think it was.
Some example you're setting for your kids, buddy.
# 2 : The writer is a school teacher.
I wonder if the concepts of 'honesty' and 'personal responsibility' ever enter into his lesson plans?
Perhaps he is a 'social progressive educator' who believes that taking responsibility is for the other person who is always at fault anyway.
Like this excerpt from a recent trip report:
Please be kind, this is my forst (sic) trip report.
The vacation: Myself, Wife, Daughter (age 8) and Son (age 5)
We went to the marina and rented two sea-racers. The last time I rented a watercraft at WDW was when I was a teenager and it was a 1-person watersprite on Bay Lake. Now that swimming in those waters is down-right dangerous, I was intrigued to find that the ond (sic) 1-person sea-racers had been replaced by two-person mini-boats.
After signing paperwork that I would not allow my son to pilot the boat, once out of sight of the dock, he took over and showed a pretty good level of piloting skill. He especially enjoyed yelling to people he saw that he was a "pirate pilot! We also enjoyed watching my wife try to pilot a boat for the first time in her life...a few rough spots and a near collision, but lots of fun.

Swine Flu For You
How do you feel about the Gitmo 'detainees', formerly known as 'terror suspects', receiving H1N1 flu vaccine before American children?
Think it's a joke? Read on:
Pentagon to offer Swine Flu Vaccine to Terror Suspects
Even if the 200+ 'detained terror suspects', including the 17 ordered to be set free, do not accept the free inoculation, it is a matter of principle, not numbers. All Americans who want a flu shot should get the vaccine before ANY terrorist.

Golf War
Did you know that Barack Hussein Obama, ten months in office, has already tied George Bush, 8 years in office, for the number of rounds of golf played?
That's Obama's first ten months vs. Bush's total 8 years in office.
Perhaps if Barack Hussein Obama spent less time playing golf (and making campaign trips*) he could actually do the business he was elected to do. You know, like making decisions about the war in Afghanistan. Meanwhile, October was the bloodiest month for U.S. troops since the Afghan war began.
Yes, Barky, the war is still on, and No, you can't just vote 'present'.
*Barky's been to 22 fundraisers in ten months; Bush appeared in 6 during his first 12 months in office.
