Common Sense Applied by a Child

17 08 2008

I got this in an e-mail.  Could have really happened. 

 

 

I was talking to a friend of mine’s little girl, and she said she wanted to be
President some day.

Both of her parents, liberal Democrats, were standing there, so I asked her, “If you were
President, what would be the first thing you would do?”
She replied, “I’d give houses to all the homeless people.”
“Wow - what a worthy goal.” I told her, “But you  don’t have to wait until  you’re  
President to do that. You can come over to my house and mow, pull weeds,
and  sweep my yard, and I’ll pay you $50. Then I’ll take you over to the grocery  
store where the homeless guy hangs out, and you can give him the $50 to us e
toward a new house.”
She thought that over for a few seconds (remember, she’s only 6.) And while her Mom
glared at me, she looked me straight in the eye and asked, “Why doesn’t the homeless
guy come over and do the work, and you can just pay him the $50?”
And I said, “Welcome to the Republican Party.”
Her folks still aren’t talking to me.
 





Scared of Obama? Oh, Hell Yes, I Am!!!!

13 08 2008

I originally posted this article 2 days ago on the 13th of August.  A liberal friend of mine asked me if I had checked the data before posting it.  I had to admit to him that I had not.  I went to “Snopes.com” and put in Obama/McCain/Taxes.  The first entry that appeared is the same that I posted without checking it first.  My apologies to all my liberal friends, enemies and those who have yet to declare an alleigience.  I got caught with my proverbial “britches down.”  An increasingly unattractive mental picture, the older I get.  I am a conservative.  I dare say I will always be a conservative, but, not at the expense of my integrity.  According to Snopes (I have no reason to disbelieve them) the following article is without merit.  Shame on me for “leaping before I looked.” 

 

“INTERESTING DATA JUST RECEIVED ON TAXES

 

 This is something you should be

 
aware of so you don’t get blind-sided.
This is really going to catch a lot
 
of families off guard. It should
make you worry.Proposed changes in taxes after 2008 General election:

 

CAPITAL GAINS TAX  

MCCAIN
0% on home sales up to $500,000
 
per home (couples) McCain does not
propose any change in existing
 
home sales income tax.OBAMA

 
28% on profit from ALL home salesHow does this affect you?

 
If you sell your home and make a profit, you
will pay 28% of your gain on taxes.
 
If you are heading toward retirement
and would like to down-size your
 
home or move into a retirement
community, 28% of the money you
 
make from your home will go to taxes. This
proposal will adversely affect the
 
elderly who are counting on the income
from their homes as part of their retirement income. 

DIVIDEND TAX MCCAIN 15% ( no change)

 OBAMA 39.6%

How will this affect you?

 
If you have any money invested in stock
market, IRA, mutual funds,
 
college funds, life insurance, retirement
accounts, or anything that pays
 
or reinvests dividends, you will now
be paying nearly 4 0% of the money
 
earned on taxes if Obama become president.
 
The experts predict that ‘higher
 
tax rates on dividends and capital gains
 
would crash the stock market yet
do absolutely nothing to cut the deficit.INCOME TAX

 MCCAIN (no changes)

Single making 30K - tax $4,500
Single making 50K - tax $12,500
Single making 75K - tax $18,750
Married making 60K- tax $9,000
Married making 75K - tax $18,750
Married making 125K - tax $31,250

OBAMA
(reversion to pre-Bush tax cuts)
Single making 30K - tax $8,400
Single making 50K - tax $14,000
Single making 75K - tax $23,250
Married making 60K - tax $16,800
Married making 75K - tax $21,000
Married making 125K - tax $38,750

Under Obama your taxes will

 
more than double!
How does this affect you? No explanation
 
needed. This is pretty
straight forward. 

INHERITANCE TAX MCCAIN 0% (No change, Bush repealed this tax)

OBAMA Restore the inheritance tax

How does this affect you? Many families

 
have lost businesses,
farms and ranches, and homes
 
that have
 
been in their families
for generations because they could not
 
afford the
inheritance tax.
Those willing their assets to loved
 
ones will not only lose them to< BR>these taxes.NEW TAXES BEING PROPOSED BY OBAMA

 * New government taxes proposed on

 
homes that are more than
2400 square feet
 * New gasoline taxes (as if

 
gas weren’t high enough already)
 * New taxes on natural resources

 
consumption (heating
gas, water, electricity)
 * New taxes on retirement accounts

 
and last but not least….* New taxes to pay for socialized medicine

 
so we can receive the same
level of medical care as other
 
third-world countries!!!

Surely Ignorance and Stupidity Will Follow Me, All the Days of My Life.

30 07 2008

     Well, it’s official.  July 29, 2008 is the day that the bottom of the pit has been reached.  Ignorance and Stupidity has reached the pinnacle of their existence.  There could NOT POSSIBLY, be anything else that could happen that could be half as stupid as the accusations I have heard and read about from you pitiful fools on the left.

      Imagine my surprise when I tuned in to 100.3 WNOX News Talk Radio and heard that they had received e-mails complaining that the station was partly to blame for the idiot who shot up a church in Knoxville last Sunday.  Apparently, he has been brainwashed or in some way been influenced by books that he had in his home written by Sean Hannity, Bill O’Reilley and Michael Savage.  Then, some pus pocket named “Dawg” posts a similar crock of democratic platform on WordPress.  Oh my aching posterior! 

     Could you poor bastards be any more pitiful?  Get a friggin life!!!!  Some “one testicled” liberal called into a local talk show and said that he has been listening to Sean Hannity, Bill O’Reilley and Rush for a long time and has heard “hate mongering,” politics of fear, right wing fanaticism and racism spewed forth from them every day, all day long.  He’s a liar.  I do listen to Rush, Sean and Bill and I would like to have ANY disinterested third party contrast them with Al Franken, Michael Moore, Rosie O’Donnel and Bill Mahar.  There is no comparison. 

     I can see it now.  Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Shumer and other left wing shrieking peckerheads will attempt to use this foolishness to push the “Fairness” doctrine thru on fast track if they think it will help their cause.   You idiots make me want to puke.





Change We Can Believe In

27 07 2008

George Bush has been in office for 7 1/2 years.  The first six the economy was fine.

A little over one year ago: 
            1) Consumer confidence stood at a 2 1/2 year high; 
            2) Regular gasoline sold for $2.19 a gallon; 
            3) the unemployment rate was 4.5%.

                    4) The DOW JONES hit a record high–14,000 +

                    5) American’s were buying new cars, taking cruises, vacations overseas, living large!…

 

But American’s wanted ‘CHANGE’!   So, in 2006 they voted in a Democratic Congress & yep–we got ‘CHANGE’ all right. In the PAST YEAR:

            1) Consumer confidence has plummeted; 
            2) Gasoline is now over $4 a gallon & climbing!; 
            3) Unemployment is up to 5% (a 10% increase); 

            4) Americans have seen their home equity drop by $12 TRILLION

                 DOLLARS & prices still dropping;

            5) 1% of American homes are in foreclosure. 
            6) as I write, THE DOW is probing another  low~~11,100–

                $2.5 TRILLION DOLLARS  HAS EVAPORATED FROM THEIR 

                STOCKS, BONDS & MUTUAL FUNDS INVESTMENT  

                PORTFOLIOS!

                

YEP , IN 2006 AMERICA VOTED FOR CHANGE!…AND WE SURE AS HELL GOT IT!!!….NOW  OBAMA, the DEM’S CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT–AND THE  POLLS SAY HE’S GONNA BE ‘THE MAN’–CLAIMS

HE’S GONNA REALLY GIVE US CHANGE!!….JUST HOW MUCH MORE ‘CHANGE’ DO YA THINK YOU CAN STAND???….

Here’s some “changes” I’d like to see.

I’d like to CHANGE back from Nancy Pelosi to Newt Gingrich

I’d like to CHANGE gasoline prices back to $2.00 a gallon.

I’d like to CHANGE all the illegal aliens back to Mexico, Equador, the Honduras, Cuba and every other damn place they came from “illegally.”  Let them come in legally and there is no problem.

I’d like to change the time back to when we were building the fence, wanted to build the fence, had plans to build the fence and were sending picks, shovels, bulldozers and backhoes down to the border to actually BUILD the damn fence.

I’d like to CHANGE back to the time when if you caught somebody sexually abusing a child, the son of a bitch simply disappeared.

I’d like to CHANGE back to the time when people had a little common sense and didn’t have a cow every time you mis-spoke. 

 

 

 





Clinging to our guns and religion.

22 07 2008

Clinging to our guns and religion.  Well, Heck Yeah!  Bless her heart.  And bless her Daddy’s heart for equipping this child to survive.  I hope this post really pisses you liberals off.  Too bad.

 

Two illegal aliens, Raphael Resindez, 23, and Enrico Garza,

 26, probably
 believed they would easily overpower home-alone 11 year old
 Patricia
 Harrington after her father had left their two-story home.
  
 It seems the two crooks never learned two things: they were
 in Montana and
 Patricia had been a clay shooting champion since she was
 nine.
  
 Patricia was in her upstairs room when the two men broke
 through the front
 door of the house. She quickly ran to her father's room
 and grabbed his 12
 gauge Mossberg 500 shotgun.
  
 Resindez was the first to get up to the second floor only
 to be the first to
 catch a near point blank blast of buckshot from the
 11-year-old's knee
 crouch aim.
 He suffered fatal wounds to his abdomen and genitals.
  
 When Garza ran to the foot of the stairs, he took a blast
 to the left
 shoulder and staggered out into the street where he bled to
 death before
 medical help could arrive.
  
 It was found out later that Resindez was armed with a
 stolen 45 caliber
 handgun he took from another home invasion robbery. That
 victim, 50-year-old
 David Burien, was not so lucky. He died from stab wounds to
 the chest.
  
 Ever wonder why good stuff never makes NBC, CBS, PBS,
 MSNBC, CNN, or ABC
 news........an 11 year old girl, properly trained, defended
 her home, and
 herself......against two murderous, illegal immigrants........and she wins,
she is still alive.
  
 Now that is the Gun Control Thought for the day: Calling an
 illegal alien an
 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug
 dealer an 'unlicensed
 pharmacist'.
  




What If?

19 07 2008

     Do you ever wonder how things would be if everybody tried to do their best?  How everyone’s life would be different if people didn’t lie, cheat, steal, smoke crack, break the law, murder little babies or cuss?  What if everybody would refrain from engaging in illegal acts merely because they are illegal?  What if, instead of taking your kids to the Government Subsidized Housing Projects to buy crack, you read the Bible to them?

    

     Is there a reason that everybody else is responsible for those who “choose” to waste their high school years doing everything “but” studying and trying to get an education?  I am my brother’s keeper.  But, does the fact that my brother doesn’t give a damn about making an effort to provide for himself and his family obligate me to provide Universal Health Care for them?  I’m not talking about those who cannot provide for themselves; that’s a separate issue.  I’m just referring to those who don’t because they know the rest of us will carry them along. 

 

     Welfare is supposed to be a “temporary fix” and not a way to make a living. 

 

      Is there a reason that the gist of the comments (if there are any comments) will be from people who say that I’m being judgmental, harsh, intolerable, unforgiving, Hitleresque and wrong? 





Just a couple of things.

12 07 2008

     Jesse stuck his foot in his mouth.  Big Deal.  Bill Clinton stuck a cigar in his mouth one time, the only problem was where he had it right before.  What difference does it make?  Have you ever said something you wish you hadn’t?  Of course, we all have.  Don Imus, Mel Gibson, Kramer, Teresa Heinz and Hilary concerning her plane disembarkment in Bosnia, are but a few examples of  how“we ought to think before we speak.”   My view of Barak Obama has softened just a little bit.  Not enough for me to vote for him by any means, but, I can empathize with his statement of personal responsibility.  I don’t see what Jesse meant when he said Barak was “talking down” to black people by stating the obvious.  By that definition, “talking down” is having the audacity to verbalize an unpopular point of view that people don’t want to hear or be reminded of.  Sort of like Phil Gramm. Sort of like Bill Cosby.  Cosby didn’t say anything that wasn’t the absolute truth.  Did he?  If so, what?

 

     How can anyone argue with the premise of personal responsibility?  If you have sex, impregnate a woman and she has a baby, it’s your responsibility.  Period.  The baby is a person.  Period.  It’s not a decision between a woman and her doctor, it’s a baby.  You shouldn’t kill it.  If you do, you’re a sorry son of a bitch. 





It’s Dangerous Not to Vote for Hilary. Even if she did lose the Nomination.

7 07 2008

Kay, Gage, WC and Fester. Insurance covers Psychiatric Services

23 06 2008

     I’ve just spent the last couple of days sparring with three or four liberals about the upcoming election.  If you could call it sparring.  I haven’t been subjected to as much namecalling, backbiting, insults and vitriol since I was single and broke up with a couple of girlfriends at the same time.

     There was no rhyme or reason, merely the discovery that I didn’t share their political views and actually admire and am proud of President Bush.  I mentioned abortion and was immediately attacked for the US forces killing mothers and babies overseas in Iraq with bombs and scud missles.  The murder of babies in the womb was quickly relegated to oblivion.  My sign on for this blog “Davisoftheapes1″ was attacked and villified as ridiculous by folks with the monikers Uncle Fester Lurks and WC BAboon.  Although silly, I don’t think davisoftheapes is any sillier that theirs.

     A mere mention of the name Jesus  caused such a landslide of insults and opinions that Christians don’t read the bible, they just “worship” Bush and how questions of “How could I possibly be a follower of Jesus if I have the audacity to back the President who is a war criminal and should be on trial as we speak at the Hague.”

     It was fun, but grew quickly tiring.  I’m thankful to trade the experience in for discourse with people who don’t accuse me of having herpes and question my sexual orientation.     





Quick! Before it’s too late!

8 06 2008

     I read something the other day that really opened my eyes and makes a pretty good argument against voting for Obama or any Democrat at all.  Oil reserves have been discovered in Montana to the tune of 40 “Billion” barrels.  That’s billion with a “B.”  China is drilling 60 miles off the coast of Florida.

     I stated in a previous post that I didn’t give a flying flip how much the Europeans pay for gas and I still don’t.  We have the means, methods and technology to get oil, just not the wherewithal.  We need to vote out each and every politician who does not swear to work hard, long and until they are successful in getting gasoline back to $2 a gallon. 

      How much are we going to pay for gasoline before something is done?  Who is going to authorize drilling in Anwr?  In Montana?  Authorizing the production of new refineries?  Democrats or Republicans?  Did you know that the procedure for drilling in Alaska is to “build up” ice on the roadway to and from and along the pipeline so that no travel is done on the virgin tundra? 

     McCain is not going to fight for the American people.  Obama is certainly not since he refuses to even wear an American Flag lapel pin because he does not want to show “favoritism” to the eyes of other countries.  There is still time for a third party candidate to rise up and capture the attention of the voting public.  It doesn’t matter if he’s a he, a she, a hemorphodite, gay or polka dotted.  If this candidate would do the job, I believe they would get elected.
