First of three.

This is serious.

Lambs to the slaughter, Part 1
By Chuck Norris

Right now, Washington is scheming and scamming to erode then erase the Second Amendment from our Constitution. And it will accomplish it through the signing of international treaties on gun control, bypassing the normal legislative process in Congress, tightening regulations upon firearm and ammunition manufacturers, using the antigun financing of tycoons and ultimately confiscating all firearms under the guise of terrorism patrol and enforcement. Without public debate and cloaked in secrecy, gun control will covertly come upon us like a thief in the night. One day, we will wake up to discover that the U.S. has signed a global treaty that will prohibit any transfer of firearm ownership, force reductions in the number of firearms privately owned and eventually eradicate the planet of guns for law-abiding citizens. Of course, the criminals will still illegally have their guns. And on that day, if you do not comply with that global treaty, you will be fined and face imprisonment. This is not a fictitious story or false warning. As sure as government health care has been shoved down our throats, so will the barrels of our guns. And left with little defense, we will go as lambs to the slaughter.

Rest in Peace Dad…

My Dad has passed away.

He died yesterday afternoon. He was 74.

Dad served in the Army from 1959-1963 as a tanker. He served two years in Texas and 3 years in Germany where he met my Mom.

Rest in peace Dad.

Here’s a little economics lesson for the masses. I promise this won’t hurt your brain. It is a visual depiction of the way politicians say they are cutting spending when, in fact, they are just placating the masses. Sure, it’s not a lie, but it is a masterful deception.

Remember when Obamoron said that he was going to cut $100,000,000 from the federal budget? Well, let’s take a look at how that would work out with a little visual aid.

Visualizing Obama’s budget cuts.

I promise, this is well worth the few minutes.

As soon as I read the first paragraph, I came to the same conclusion as Hot Air! If this was jacked up this much, what about the “climate” models that all the eco-terrorists, eco-lovers are squawking about?

Report: Hey About That Ash Cloud That Shut Down UK Air Travel? Yeah, There Really Wasn’t One Afterall

Oopsie!

Britain’s airspace was closed under false pretences, with satellite images revealing there was no doomsday volcanic ash cloud over the entire country.

Skies fell quiet for six days, leaving as many as 500,000 Britons stranded overseas and costing airlines hundreds of millions of pounds.

Estimates put the number of Britons still stuck abroad at 35,000.

However, new evidence shows there was no all-encompassing cloud and, where dust was present, it was often so thin that it posed no risk.

The satellite images demonstrate that the skies were largely clear, which will not surprise the millions who enjoyed the fine, hot weather during the flight ban.

Jim McKenna, the Civil Aviation Authority’s head of airworthiness, strategy and policy, admitted: ‘It’s obvious that at the start of this crisis there was a lack of definitive data.

The National Air Traffic Control Service decision to ban flights was based on Met Office computer models which painted a picture of a cloud of ash being blown south from the Eyjafjallajokull volcano.

These models should have been tested by the Met Office’s main research plane, a BAE 146 jet, but it was in a hangar to be repainted and could not be sent up until last Tuesday – the last day of the ban.

Evidence has emerged that the maximum density of the ash was only about one 20th of the limit that scientists, the Government, and aircraft and engine manufacturers have now decided is safe.

Obama the racist, shows his color, once again. Pun intended.

Imagine if Bush told whitey to get out and vote for the Republicans so we dpn’t lose our asses in the mid-term elections…

Obama seeks to ‘reconnect…young people, African-Americans, Latinos, and women’ for 2010
By Ben Smith

The Democratic National Committee this morning released this clip of the president rallying the troops, if rather coolly, for 2010. Obama’s express goal: “reconnecting” with the voters who voted for the first time in 2008, but who may not plan to vote in the lower-profile Congressional elections this year.

Obama speaks with unusual demographic frankness about his coalition in his appeal to “young people, African-Americans, Latinos, and women who powered our victory in 2008 [to] stand together once again.”

Obama plays “race card” in call for 2010 elections?

Drudge has this clip highlighted with the headline, “OBAMA PLAYS RACE CARD” in bold letters at the top of the page. Ben Smith at Politico goes with a less-provocative description of “unusual demographic frankness” in describing this effort from the DNC to get the troops rallied for the midterm elections. Both descriptions seem more ironic after watching this wan, mailed-in effort from Barack Obama that reminds one more of his video extolling Martha Coakley’s virtues to skeptical Massachusetts voters:

I didn’t report the first one, my bad, just lazy. I figured all the Milblogs would be all over it anyway.

At any rate, this is great news. I am still shocked that it made it this far.

2 down, 1 to go.

Blackfive is covering it, and I’d much rather link to them, than the AP.

Second SEAL cleared in alleged abuse case (Updated)

Posted By Crush

A jury cleared Special Operator 2nd Class Jonathan Keefe today during his court martial in Iraq. Keefe was charged with failing to prevent the alleged abuse of Ahmed Hashim Abed, the man believed responsible for the grisly 2004 massacre of four Blackwater security contractors.

SO1 Julio Huertas was cleared yesterday. Now only SO2 Matthew McCabe’s trial remains, which is set to begin on 3 May in the United States. McCabe is the only SEAL charged with striking Abed.

Yep. He lied again. He said that “Families making less than $250,000 per year will not see “any form of tax increase,” while campaigning. Now?

Obama broke his “any form of tax increase” pledge when he signed the health care bill. This bill contains seven tax hikes that undeniably hit a lot of families making less than $250,000 per year.

Who’s helping him with this con? The MSM of course. They are whitewashing the fact that he said what he said, and are allowing him to change what he said then to what he says now (another lie); “And one thing we have not done is raise income taxes on families making less than $250,000. That’s another promise we’ve kept.”

When is this man going to be called out by the media? Lie after lie and they remain silent, or actually abet his crimes against American freedom.

Is the word “crimes” too strong? I think not. We are talking about freedom  to do what we want as Americans without government intervention in every facet of our lives.

This man and his ilk must be stopped. The only way that will happen is if America votes these scum bags out of office. Remove the Democrat majority in both houses of Congress. That’s the only way to stop him from turning America into another Europe.

Europe sucks. Why the hell would we want to be like those morons?

Yes, Asian babes are eye candy to me.

Enjoy your weekend.

More candy please!

You were warned, but didn’t listen. They were warned, but didn’t listen.

Bend over, this won’t hurt… much.

Remember, this wasn’t about health care. It’s about control. The cost never really matter to these jerks, even if they lose seats in the midterm elections, they achieved their goal of controlling more of America through big government. You didn’t gain anything, other than more intrusion from government into your life.

Freedom is what’s at stake. Every time you vote, remember it’s your freedom that is at stake.

One more lie to add to the pile. The cost is going to be higher than the Democrats said it would, the Republicans already saw that one coming.

I hope this monstrosity can be repealed.

Report says health care will cover more, cost more
By Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar

WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul law is getting a mixed verdict in the first comprehensive look by neutral experts: More Americans will be covered, but costs are also going up.

Economic experts at the Health and Human Services Department concluded in a report issued Thursday that the health care remake will achieve Obama’s aim of expanding health insurance — adding 34 million to the coverage rolls.

But the analysis also found that the law falls short of the president’s twin goal of controlling runaway costs, raising projected spending by about 1 percent over 10 years. That increase could get bigger, since Medicare cuts in the law may be unrealistic and unsustainable, the report warned.

It’s a worrisome assessment for Democrats.

This is why medics are revered in the military…

Carson medic recalls attack that led to her Bronze Star
LANCE BENZEL

THE GAZETTE

There was no time to think, or even register fear, when a rocket-propelled grenade ripped into a Humvee and detonated in the driver’s lap.

“All I knew is: It was hot, I couldn’t see and I couldn’t breathe,” said Cpl. Helen L. Ruhl, one of four soldiers injured in the Sept. 24 blast in eastern Afghanistan.

Yet Ruhl could — and did — manage to act.

Despite her own injuries, the 24-year-old Fort Carson medic is credited with helping to save the driver’s life by stanching his bleeding and then returning fire on insurgents as her comrade was taken away for treatment.

She received a Bronze Star for valor Wednesday in a ceremony on Fort Carson. It’s the military’s fourth highest award for valor.

The driver lost a leg but may not have survived without Ruhl’s quick thinking, a top commander said.

“She’s the kind of medic I would like to have on a combat patrol,” Fort Carson Deputy Commanding General for Support Brig. Gen. James Pasquarette said after pinning Ruhl with the award.
