Soft Pitch

I'm back at the White House, because Big Guy and I have to practice the first pitch for the All-Star Game tonight.

We're headed to Detroit, or what Rahm and Gibbsy jokingly call the "Unemployment Capital of the World," for the big speech today. Then we head to St. Louis, where, if Big O can work things out, he will throw out the first pitch.

Big Guy is kind of nervous about the throw, but after watching Michelle rifle a few fast balls off my screen, he seemed to get the hang of it, which is a good thing. He originally wanted to warm up using the White House press corps, but since they throw nothing by softballs at him every day, there's no way he'd be prepared to throw off the rubber at Busch Stadium.

  6. Better have a serious talk with him, TOTUS...he might decide that tonight is when he goes for the strike...He does know that baseball is played with the small white ball, right? Let's look at it this way...at least he can't get another gutterball...

  7. Why would Big Guy participate in America's pastime?

    ReplyDelete
  8. TOTUS,
    With the left teleprompter missing will Big Guy be like Zoolander and not be able to turn left?
    Oh wait, he is already so far left he can only turn right. Never Mind.

    I am glad to hear you are getting the good health care and not the shoddy health care that they are trying to force upon the "lost" middle class.

    Did Big Guy buy the customer care extended service contract when he picked you up? If so, they may have to ship you off to China or India to get repaired.

    Is it true Brian Williams from NBC will be catching the first pitch or will it be Chuckles Gibson from ABC? They already have postured themselves on their knees before you. I know it won't be Chris Matthews. He gets all jelly legged when he is around you.

  13. I think that you should have him pitch the obamatard. It is an intentional foul intended to hit the team pitcher in the nads. Big guy always wanted to hit someone with a baseball in the nads anyway. No umps will call him on it either.

    ReplyDelete
  14. FYI-I saw GWB throw out the first pitch at a Rangers game, and it was a strike. Considering he's younger, Obama should be able to at least get it over the plate-that is if he isn't throwing to the left.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Saw you take that fall there TOTUS. Worried you wouldn't make it back. Glad to see you are okay though!
    So the President is throwing the first pitch? I suppose he shouldn't be worried-he plays basketball doesn't he? He's the all sports guy, the cool dude. What's he got to worry about? Not surprised to hear that Michelle was giving the Big Man the run-down on how to throw. She looks like she has a good arm.

  16. he'll probably throw underhanded (from habit), and bean the batter (poor guy, I'll bet they're drawing lots now!)

  24. I'm surprised by this, because I always took him as a catcher, not a pitcher.

    It being his first time up on the mound then, I predict failure, followed by statements like

    "This is the result of 100 years of failed ball design."

    "We underestimated the distance from the mound to the goal, err plate."

    "I've said before we need to be ready to make some tough decisions, and uh, um, that was a strike, not a spare, uh wait, that's bowling, I mean it wasn't a ball."

    "It's great to be here with all the 57 all-stars"

    "We need to sure that in future, every player gets to take a swing in the All-Star game. That the glory of contested performance be reserved to the richest, no uh actually uh most talented, wait, doesn't that mean they deserve uh, shoot, err Yes We Can."

  25. No offense to our wonderful ladies out there, but a million bazillion dollars says he throws like a girl.

    ReplyDelete
  26. If this 5.4% surtax for millionaires goes through then everybody on that field will get hit. Hollywood elite will be included in that tax too.
    Big Guy better make this pitch count. He may not be invited back next year.

    The ultimate short hop is my prediction.

    code the plumber, thank you for the laugh. Since I refuse to watch Big Guy at sporting events, you have helped confirm my decision.

  27. throws like my two year old granddaughter; didn't see the catcher actually catch it -- bet he had to run up to get it, tho'; thought for a second ol' left-leanin' Dope was gonna fall over.

    whatta loser!

    Oh, so YOU can dis someone that YOU think is bad, but no one else can?

    What a double standard. Give me a break.

    Obama should never try to fit in at an all American sports event. He is more of a soccer kind of guy, you know, he would go for a European sport because its, you know, European and all, so he thinks that its classier. I'm surprised that he hasn't apologized yet to Europe that we prefer American baseball and football here in the U.S.

    Yes, they where Boos in the Crowd, I HEARD them in Dolby Pro Logic. Loud and Clear.

    I bet they where louder at the game, in person.

    "No, I said he was a 'slick pitch man.' And he IS."

  41. Ms. Melena PLEASE DON'T GO!

    We would miss you so much.

    BTW thank you for the poop on the way it was at the ball game. Appreciate the scoop. I didn't see it and was wondering. LOL, I'm sure your assessement of that dolt was right on.

    I gotta say, though..... when someone throws poorly, it is simply poor pitching, not "like a girl." (eye roll)

    Wonder whose relative that Bea Arthur wanna be was? While I love and will always stand for our national anthem even at home alone in my living room, the singer's ability should fit the setting and honor the dignity of that moving music. If she was a war veteran whose throat was damaged by a chemical weapon, then it is wonderful that she sang (so long as she did her best).

    If she was just some poor slob with a horrible voice like Sonny "The Bull" Suchaneyesore, then her solo was an insult to all patriotic Americans.

    We should offer only our best to honor our beloved United States of America. Sloppy or inexcusably poor or casual singing of "The Star Spangled Banner" shows disrespect for all that it stands for and for all who have fought so "that star spangled banner yet wave[s] o'er the land of the free and the home of the brave."

    LAND OF THE FREE BECAUSE OF THE BRAVE.

    They deserve nothing but the best, including excellent anthem singers.

    Looking forward to reading your next post, Melena.

  42. If any of you are praying people, there is a real life hero putting his career, his reputation, his liberty, on the line tomorrow down in Georgia.

    Sgt. Cook (read this on Fox News ticker this evening) will defend his refusal to return to Afghanistan based on his [ACCURATE!] assertion that B. Hussein is NOT the legitimate Commander in Chief because he has not proven that he was born in the United States. Thus, all his orders are null and void.

    We all fight against that Marxist Muslim from Kenya where we can. All I do is talk a lot.

    Sgt. Cook has stepped up and said effectively, "Here I am. I'm taking a stand against that lying tyrant. He is no president; he is an imposter."

    What a brave man.

    He needs our prayers.

  43. If you watch the video closely, you'll see that Barry was trying to "underhandedly" waive off the sign from Totus (who was standing right behind the catcher, Albert Pujols) before throwing that eephus pitch he heaved last night.

    He had the correct real slow speed, but just didn't get the eephus pitch high enough. And that's why it never even made it to the plate.

    It was rumored that even Albert Pujols told him it didn't have enough "juice" on it when they shook and embraced after the pitch.

    Check Barry out, brushing off the Totus sign at 50 - 53 seconds on the video! Yep!

    ReplyDelete
  44. TWW, the Good News Morning News says that Maj. Stefan Frederick Cook's orders for deployment
    to Afghanistan HAVE BEEN REVOKED. Also, more Military plaintiffs have been added to the case. A very brave stand indeed by all of them. All heroes, every one.

    Per Drudge Report - at the very top, just under the centerfold.

    ******************

    The OilForImmigration blog and Citizen Wells blog had videos of BO's Ghana visit where the Ghanians welcomed him as a native son of Africa. MSNBC confirmed it, tho their video may not have remained in place, as the Dims have been scrubbing the internet furiously recently.

    Yesterday I read that the reason BO did not make a stop in Kenya was because he could be arrested there as he is a British Citizen.

    As more and more items leak out, more and more people are becoming aware that he is a fraud -
    thus the huge push to get the health Care bill and Cap&Trade passed right away. Even a large number of the Dems told BHO that there was little chance that they could have the HC bill ready before August. He very sternly told them that they MUST get it done NOW. As in 'OBEY instantly when I speak').

  63. Here it is - the only reason that Barry-O didn't bounce that ball:
    Chicago Tribune:
    == Pujols earned the hug, saving the president from embarrassment by moving in front of the plate to save the pitch from bouncing. ==

    From another source (ESPN):
    == Determined his ceremonial first pitch at the All-Star Game would reach the plate on the fly Tuesday night, Obama delivered -- barely. St. Louis Cardinals slugger Albert Pujols helped him, moving up to scoop the low toss inches off the dirt. ==

    Neither of the above sources are bastions of Conservative thought.

  64. The other day, Senator Chuckie Shumer (D-NY) made this statement about Health Care Reform - "The devil is in the details".

    Well, they sure are, especially the details in the Health Care bill just recently passed by the House. You should read this article in Investor's Business Daily:

    == It's Not An Option
    By INVESTOR'S BUSINESS DAILY | Posted Wednesday, July 15, 2009 4:20 PM PT

    Congress: It didn't take long to run into an "uh-oh" moment when reading the House's "health care for all Americans" bill. Right there on Page 16 is a provision making individual private medical insurance illegal.

    When we first saw the paragraph Tuesday, just after the 1,018-page document was released, we thought we surely must be misreading it. So we sought help from the House Ways and Means Committee.

    It turns out we were right: The provision would indeed outlaw individual private coverage. Under the Orwellian header of "Protecting The Choice To Keep Current Coverage," the "Limitation On New Enrollment" section of the bill clearly states:

    "Except as provided in this paragraph, the individual health insurance issuer offering such coverage does not enroll any individual in such coverage if the first effective date of coverage is on or after the first day" of the year the legislation becomes law.

    So we can all keep our coverage, just as promised — with, of course, exceptions: Those who currently have private individual coverage won't be able to change it. Nor will those who leave a company to work for themselves be free to buy individual plans from private carriers.

  66. One of the biggest problems we have in this country is the fact that we have so many uninformed people. I don't know if its because they don't care or if it is that they still trust the msm and the old print media. And unfortunately, there are some who seem to get their news from Saturday Night Live, The Colbert Report, Jon Stewart, and Bill Mahar!

    There are SO many great sources for information on the internet. I just want to share what I find.

    An uninformed populace is a dangerous thing. Look what happened in Germany when Hitler rose to power. Back then, there were no alternative sources for information, especially if you lived outside of the major metropolitan areas. So most in the countryside did not know what Hitler really doing. They just knew what they were being told.

    There is no excuse for us not to know in this day and age.

  72. SO you'd obey Hitler's orders, right, HugeASS!?

    Could you please get a CLUE!? Try to follow:

    All the military had to do (and has done in similar cases) was to produce the document requested, to resolve the problem. The legal, long-form birth certificate would prove, as nothing else can (particularly since BO's own family members differ in their reports concerning in which NATION he was born, and even differ re. which Hawaii hospital!----got that? It's his own FAMILY whose reports DIFFER!), that BO is a naturalized US citizen, deserving of his office.

    The military could NOT produce it, because the president refuses to release it, so they rescinded the soldier's orders from the "president" (again, because they could not PROVE he's legitimately "president").

    Go eat some protein, HUGEASS, so you can THINK better......

  73. Today, I was searching the internet and I came across an interesting Craigs List job offering. On the City Of San Francisco Craigs List under the "Government Jobs" listing, I found an advertisement for summer jobs which entails going out into the community to promote Energy Reform. It states "You can work for change this summer."

    http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sfc/gov/1257588122.html

    (It appears that these ads are on Craig's List in other cities as well. And early this morning, there was also an ad for people to go out and promote "Health Care Reform", but it has since been removed and is no longer listed. I think its because it was on Drudge and thus exposed to the public eye!)

    The ad about energy reform contains a link entitled JobsThatMatter.org, which carries you directly to the website of the "non-profit" group "Fund For the Public Interest" (FFPI).

    http://www.jobsthatmatter.org/
    http://www.fundforthepublicinterest.org/jobs/citizen-outreach-staff

    This organization is offering to pay people to participate in a "grass-roots" effort to promote energy reform. Since when do "grassroots campaigns" PAY their "volunteers"?

    I have read before that Obama's campaign has direct ties to FFPI. And I wonder if we looked deep into some recent legislation somewhere, we would find that this group is getting money from the Federal Government (like ACORN does). Are these perhaps the "summer jobs" that Obama had put into the "stimulus"?

    In other words, if this turns out to be true, the Fraud is using taxpayer money to pay people to go out masquerading as voluntary grassroots supporters promoting the his agenda.

    Is that what we pay taxes for? I think NOT!

    Sorry about the lengthy post, but I wanted people to see what I saw. Since I started looking into this (I thought I was imagining it), I've seen posts on other blogs about this very thing.

  75. By the way, since Maj. Cook is now going to file a new suit in regard to his dismissal being a "violation of the Whistleblower Act", there will be testimony taken under oath about the source of the pressure on the employer to fire him, and it will be revealed that the orders came directly from the WH. (Probably from ManMonster herself, since it has been said that she has been instrumental in the birthplace coverup.)

    Do you suppose they want that known?

    Of course not.

    I suppose emails are being deleted, as we speak.

  76. Here is Barbara Boxer (how she ever became a U.S. Senator is mind-boggling) as she insults the intelligience of a leading African-American business leader (CEO Harry C. ALford) and calls her on it:

    == "We've been looking at energy policy since 1996. And we are referring to the experts, regardless of their color. And for someone to tell me, an African-American, college-education veteran of the United States Army, that I must contend with some other "black group" and put aside everything else in here — This has NOTHING to do with the NAACP, and really has nothing to do with the National Black Chamber of Commerce. We're talking about energy. And that — that road the chair went down, I think is God awful." ==

    http://tiny.cc/8GkOO

    Later, Breitbart had an in-depth radio interview with Mr. Alford. Be sure to listen to the entire interview, because it reveals WHY Boxer was trying to paint him as not being in line with other African Americans ...

    http://tiny.cc/Ytn7n

    I guess Boxer is a fairly typical Democrat politician, African Americans are just supposed to vote for the Democrats. They aren't allowed to disagree with them. After all, the Dems know what's best for them.

  78. Don't know if this has been posted on here before but it definitely falls in with replacing the 435 career politicians on The Hill.

    This looks to be a very awesome gathering place for people to have more say in "The System". Real people - like you and me.

    http://goooh.com/Learn.aspx

    GOOOH stands for 'Get Out of Our House' and is pronounced like the word 'go'. It is a NON-PARTISAN plan to evict the 435 career politicians in the U.S. House of Representatives and replace them with everyday Americans just like you.

    If you are tired of career politicians, GOOOH is for you. If you believe money has corrupted Washington, GOOOH is for you. If you believe politicians have too much power, GOOOH is for you. If you are weary of the death grip the two parties have on our government, and are ready to return control of our government to the people, then GOOOH is for you.

    GOOOH is NOT just another political party. It is a system that will allow you and your neighbors to choose, among yourselves, the person who can best represent your district.

    GOOOH is an evolving system and your input is requested. The questions are changing based on the feedback of members just like you. Participate in the forums, take the survey, and send us your thoughts. This is YOUR system. We will perfect it with your input.

    GOOOH is a new system that will allow "we the people" to select true representatives, not choose between a Democrat and a Republican. If we continue to elect career politicians who represent their party, the special interests that fund them, and themselves, nothing will change. GOOOH is a non-partisan process that will allow us to effect the change we all know we need.

    GOOOH will allow you to:

    1.Help select your Representative - while being considered yourself
    2.Hold your Representative accountable
    3.Replace career politicians - with true representatives
    4.Take the money out of the process

    .........

    Go check it out. Let's see if we can make something for US.

    ReplyDelete
  83. Oh yes, it has everything to do with Kyl standing up to the "leadership" in Congress and Obama.

    Did you know that Obama had at least three of his Cabinet members write letters to Arizona's governor with veiled threats of not sending stimulus money if she didn't rein in Kyl? (Arizona's governor stood up to them, thank goodness!)

    SO, I guess Obama thinks of the stimulus money as his own, to distribute as he pleases, to reward his minions and punish those who don't follow his agenda. Is probably why they have been holding back and haven't sent out much of it yet. First they used it to threaten Arnie if he cut the pay of the union members there in Calyfornia. Now Arizona. Who's next?

    I'm not too sure about the Goooh thing, either. Sure sounds like the community organizing way to do things. And a good way to "divide and conquer" us all. Destroy both parties, have "average citizens" in office. The problem we have now is that we have some nutty average citizen types in there already, mostly in the House. We want to get the radicals out of there, not welcome in a bunch of nuts.

    And I sure don't want to end up like California, with all their citizen referendums, a lot of which are petty, special interest things that nit-pick at what one group doesn't like about what another group is doing, so they are going to force them to do it their way.

  84. Ok. Gun owners, there is some legislation in the works that you need to be aware of:

    In the House - HR 45 - the Blair Holt Firearm Licensing & Record of Sale Act of 2009.

    Basically this would make it illegal to own a firearm - any rifle with a clip or ANY pistol unless:

    -It is registered
    -You are fingerprinted
    -You supply a current Driver's License
    -You supply your social Security #
    -You will submit to a physical & mental evaluation at any time of their choosing
    -Each update or change or ownership through private or public sale must be reported and costs $25
    - Failure to do so you automatically lose the right to own a firearm and are subject up to a year in jail.
    - There is a child provision clause on page 16 section 305 stating a child-access provision. Gun must be locked and inaccessible to any child under 18.
    - They would have the right to come and inspect that you are storing your gun safely away from accessibility to children and fine is punishable for up to 5 yrs. in prison.

    In the Senate - SB-2099 - will require that you put on our 2009 1040 federal tax form all guns that you have or own. It may require fingerprints and a tax of $50 per gun.

    I guess with all the hulabaloo about Cap&Trade and Health Care reform, they were going to sneak these by us.

    Just one more control that they want to put on the citizens - our means of defending ourselves.

  85. NOW, back to the healt care plan and higher insurance premiums for smokers:

    TOBACCO USE (but not alchohol abuse, illegal drug abuse, etc)

    http://www.cnsnews.com/public/content/article.aspx?RsrcID=51093

    == The summary of the bill published by the committee specifically states that premiums may be varied to account for tobacco use, but any other use of a person’s record of insurance claims, health status or medical history will be forbidden.

    If they smoked a pipe it would be a different story — depending, of course, on what was in the pipe. They could be charged a higher premium if it was tobacco—but apparently not if it was marijuana, hashish or crack cocaine.==

    He did not know something a first year law student knows, that citizens have the right to self-defense.

    He is ignorant of even the most basic U.S. Constitutional case law on the "right to privacy"/abortion "rights." His response to Orrin Hatch's Q was essentially, "Duuuh, I... uh... I'd have to know that individual state's laws were to say anything at all about it."

    === The number of people searching for the term “economic depression” on Google is down to normal levels, Summers said.

    Searches for the term were up four-fold when the recession deepened in the earlier part of the year, and the recent shift goes to show consumer confidence is higher, Summers told the Peterson Institute for International Economics. ===

  91. Seriously, I think this is something that we can do. We need to google "economic depression', then we need to email everyone we know and ask them to google 'economic depression' and request that they email all THEIR friends and ask THEM to google 'economic depression', and so on, until the millions of people who are very worried about the economy have all googled it and the Obama admin will get the message that we have zero confidence in them.

    And, if the obama admin is getting their ideas about public sentiment from what we google on, then we need to come up with google searches that will send messages to the obama admin. Lets see, here is a start:

    tyranny
    dictatorship
    corrupt politicians

    - a car that gets great mileage but is basically a box on wheels. Along the lines of the "Tato Nano" manufactured in India, with a 2-cyl engine, no radio, no power steering, no passenger side mirror, manual trans, 50 mpg, top speed 65 mph.

  94. I'm posting something off the wall this afternoon. A few weeks back some of us were chastised by another poster for our "ad hominem attacks" on Mighty MO's lack of taste. That has been bothering me because I knew what we were doing wasn't that at all. And it especially bothered me because it spoiled the fun for a lot of us. Well, I've decided to address it now.

    To those of you who were whining about what you called our "ad hominem attacks" - you need to know the true meaning of ad hominem. It doesn't mean what you thought it did.

    === One of the most widely misused terms on the Net is "ad hominem". It is most often introduced into a discussion by certain delicate types, delicate of personality and mind, whenever their opponents resort to a bit of sarcasm. As soon as the suspicion of an insult appears, they summon the angels of ad hominem to smite down their foes, before ascending to argument heaven in a blaze of sanctimonious glory. They may not have much up top, but by God, they don't need it when they've got ad hominem on their side. It's the secret weapon that delivers them from any argument unscathed.

    In reality, ad hominem is unrelated to sarcasm or personal abuse. Argumentum ad hominem is the logical fallacy of attempting to undermine a speaker's argument by attacking the speaker instead of addressing the argument. The mere presence of a personal attack does not indicate ad hominem: the attack must be used for the purpose of undermining the argument, or otherwise the logical fallacy isn't there. It is not a logical fallacy to attack someone; the fallacy comes from assuming that a personal attack is also necessarily an attack on that person's arguments. ===

  97. Jamie,

    Thanks. TWW got me laughing about the new Govt. Motors car, and the Insipid is a great name for it. It probably won't be much better than the Tata Nano, but the Nano will cost $2,500, and will be a boon to people in India who load the whole family onto a motor bike to travel. The Insipid will doubtless cost much more than the Nano, but rather than being a boon, it will turn out to be a boondoggle, as so many of the bright ideas of this admin have been.

    Your comments on Larry Summers were funny. Isn't he the one that lost a lot of the money of the Harvard Fund? He is a strange person, but since he left Hahvahd he seems to have found his niche with the other misfits and tax cheats in DC.

    BTW, thank you for all the great research that you do, and for keeping all of us up to date on all the shenanigans that the Libs are up to. Have you seen this website yet?

That's why I like blogs, you find out what is really cooking. It will be interesting to see how this all comes out.

    As for the Nano, when the Chryslter / GM takeovers were on-going, I heard a rumor that the new Govt Motors was going to try to bring in CHINESE cars for sale here. Maybe that's what Fancy Nancy was over there in China talking about. Who knows, they may have made a deal with China to import their crap cars in return for them lending us the billions of bucks to buy out everything under the sun. Of course we will let their cars in and still owe them the billions, plus interest.

    China will take us over without ever firing a shot because Obama and Congress is selling us out to them via the massive debt we owe.

    We saved Europe from the German's way back when, who is going to save us from the Chinese?

    Surely they know by now that we FOTUS are pretty powerless, all we can do is speak out and present truth and facts. Of course, they don't particularly LIKE truth OR facts, so maybe that's it. The TRUTH shall set you free.

I would Google something like that, e.g., "Obama wicked witch" and..... up would come George Bush's face in a pointy hat. If you try to search for something about ANY topic, the articles that appear on the first few pages are largely blatantly liberal-biased, e.g., New Republic or Newsweek.

I know a mere personal attack is not ad hominem, but, my mental slothfulness kicked in and I didn't refute those trolls or overly fastidious commenters correctly at all. NOW, thanks to you, I will!

    Seriously, though, Jamie, good point. I don't know whether to laugh, sneer, or weep as I watch one of those "Smart" (LOL) cars flying down the free way doing 45, cars and trucks three times its size and 10 times its tonnage barrelling by. And there's big Daddy lib, foolish grin on his Enviro-holy face, Mama beside him and two small children in the back. Mostly, it makes me really angry.

    BTW, do any of you think "TOTUS" reads our comments anymore? It was fun when he did and sometimes commented back, even if just a "thanks."

    Okay, now let's see if I get as good a secret word as "dumbies" (C:}

  108. IGWTnm, "American Carol" had some excellent acting and lines. The George Washington scene was especially moving. I agree [NOT THAT YOU WILL CARE I KNOW! LOL], Kelsey G.'s Patton was great.

    I think George C. Scott's Patton was better, more gruff -- too old (is he even still alive?) for that movie, though.

  110. You guys worry too much.
    Writing to screen is a 9 to 5 job for TP,and if you haven't noticed,he,like you,prefers to take the weekends off.
    This is kind of a working weekend for him tho.Eerie meetings are rumored to be on the agenda between the ghosts of Lyndon Johnson,Duke the bloodhound and Dumbo.
    It is to be earnestly moderated by Ben Stein.

    Ears have unbelievable power when concentrated in groups of the endowed.
    Especially when used for listening.
    Legislatures were designed w them in mind.
    Attempts at such usage will be discussed here.
    Mr Stein,for instance,has heard all are not thrilled with the balances on their 101ks.
    The others have also sniffed out
    discontent amongst the rabble and are keeping ears to the ground,Tonto style,for clues as to where the herd might stampede.
    All had taken note of the success our pal Frazier has had w that phrase,

  112. Liberals are superb at "listening tours" (see "Hillary") and making good impressions and having the best of intentions.

    They stink, though, at TAKING ACTION----especially honestly "bold" action. Wienies are more into appeasement----which of course never really works, but again, it's the good INTENTION that matters....
    BLEAH!

    Yes, ad hominem attacks occur when people can't win an argument otherwise, either because their position lacks merit, or because their positions are flat-out indefensible.

    So these people stop arguing for their position on the issues, and instead turn to attack their opponents themselves. Ad hominum attacks thus reveal the lousy character and deficient thinking of the attackers.
    Sorta what BO pulls constantly.

    An ad hominum attack is similar to an "argumentum ad baculum:" "argument to the stick," where one stops arguing in order directly to attack or abuse someone.

    Jerks who pull this junk should be called out, which Palin has evidently decided to do henceforth: GREAT!

  113. Recently I read that TOTUS is a newspaperman in Florida, but I don't remember with which paper.

    Probably he's been busy and hasn't had time to post every day, but he probably knows that most of us will still be here when he returns. Hope that is the case, and that he hasn't been highjacked. TOTUS we miss you...please hurry back.

    TWW...cute take on the three bears - with all (much more than three) the pigs in DC, the world is becoming a Looney Tunes scenario.

  114. How does one prove they are uneducated, unqualified and ignorant to the treats of mankind? Using paragraphs like (Ad Hominem, which only exists in Politically Correct Countries/Cultures)

    Its not intimidation, it’s about intimidation.

    Telling one to sit down and to be quiet, in a free society, one should expect to have bullets returned. I.E. Freedom of Speech.

    CONTRAST:

    Insulting one, via sarcasm, one should expect to have a counter joke returned. I.E. Good ol’ Fashioned Humor.

    Not appeasing to cultural insecurities is vital to the Existence of Americas Liberty.

    2/3 of the world are held in silence because of Ad Hominem.

    Thankfully, America has yet to embrace the ideology of Ad Hominem into its current culture. Once America does begin to Appease Ad Hominem, are freedoms as Americans will cease to exist as we know it.

    Political Correctness/Ad Hominem is nothing more than a wasted opportunity to Speak Out Loud and embrace Leadership.

  115. Russian thinker and author Feodor Dostoyevsky offered the following take on Socialism: "The future kingdom of Socialism will be a terrible Tyranny of criminals and murderers. It will throw humanity into a true hell of spiritual suffering and poverty."

    If you recall, no less than Vladimir Putin said he was surprised how quickly America was being led to Socialism.

    Margaret Thatcher added that the "problem with Socialism is that eventually you run out of other people's money."

    Big Guy and his band of thugs have been hard at work trying to destroy America. Yes, God Bless the Free Republic of the United States of America, and preserve our Freedoms.

  117. Man, I go camping for five days and miss everything. It's taken hours to catch up with everyone! Ya'll are awesome. Have I said that?

    Well there we were in the forest in our 1981 Huntsman - runs like a champ but only after coughing out about three years worth of the State's carbon rations - drinking cold beer and watching the stars, and what noise do we hear cuddled upon the breast of Mother Nature? Why, it is the hoot and hollar of Americans recreating, shooting guns and wheeling ATV's about the roads, the loud playing of 70's rock, plus fire works. More, there were little Americans there too, learning the ways of their elders.

    Ahhh, life is still good. Normally I protest noise in the forest, but for some reason this time it sounded like a sort of music. A wild and wonderful music of hard working Americans bringing family out to the forest to relax, un-citify themselves, and generally be the fun loving people we are.

    Then I thought about you all and how much reading I was going to have to do when I got back. Dang. It took two hours!

    Dear TOTUS:
    Resist! Don't let them tread on your cord. I've named a camping martini after you:

    Two shots of vodka
    Oak leaf sprig
    Two ice cubes
    Umbrella
    Sprinkle of dirt

    You betcha.

    ReplyDelete
  118. You betcha! Sounds like you had an all-American good time! Been there, done that, too. LOL

    Its great that there are folks who still take their kids out to enjoy nature. Pull them out of the house, away from their video games and cell phones, and plunk them down in the middle of the great outdoors and let them know what true freedom feels like. The environmentalists would like to stop people from doing exactly what you folks did. I hope they never succeed.

    Have you heard about the latest fad among the elite? Its called "glamorous camping", or 'glamping'.

    === In British Columbia, Canada, the Clayoquot Wilderness Resort, a 30-minute boat ride from the town of Tofino, is offering "glamping" on a fjord on the west coast of Vancouver Island. Tents have Persian carpets, down duvets and even electricity. There's a sauna and hot tubs on site, and activities including fishing, horseback riding, kayaking, hikes and wildlife-watching. ===

    heres a couple of links to check out the latest in foolish wastes of money by the rich:
    - http://tiny.cc/NPzb9
    - http://tiny.cc/jNXf5

    And there are also trips that a Russian company is offering a trip where people can sign up for cruises to "hunt pirates'. It is the ultimate in lunacy.

    === The yachts come with body guards, who are allegedly "a squad of ex special forces troops," and, for about $20 a day extra, you can use an AK-47 and 100 rounds of ammo. ===

  119. Comparing real time survival….

    To camping in a state park?

    Hey, now that’s an idea!

    Family Fun is the best kind of fun!

    Take my portable Coleman Suitcase Gas Grill for instance. It was made for the little guy like me. You Betcha, Mr.hard working middle class America who is faithful to God.

    It’s great for Camping Trips, the back porch and Celebrating Americas Independence on the 4th of July.

    I don’t have a dog in this Little “Drama Queen” ideology, tiff going on inside this blog here.

    (Where are the adults? Am I the oldest one here?)

    But I do know this much… Standing up for what is right has never been popular.

    A Strong Conservative Leader, who will not QUIT on America will emerge from within the GOP and take back America from the clutches of Corruption, Socialism and Communism!

    God Bless the Free Republic of the United States of America.

    America will take Back America in 2010-2012!!!

  121. class envy? NAH! I just think what some rich folks do for entertainment is just plain silly.

    I don't want to be rich, but I don't want to be poor, either. And I don't envy the rich, because there are a lot of inherent problems that come with being "rich". But that's the money kind of rich.

    I think live a "rich" life. I love what I do, I love how I live and I wouldn't want to change it. I have loving family and friends. Truly I do.

    Right now, I have enough. I don't have any credit cards, because credit cards just get you into trouble. I buy what I can afford to buy and do without whatever things that I can't afford to buy. If there is something frivilous that I really, really, REALLY want, I'll save up until I can buy it, else I just do without it. I give what money I can spare to the charities that I believe in. Sometimes things get a little "tight", but that's just part of living.

    But, no, I don't envy the "rich".

    As for "strange ideologies", I'm not even sure as to what you were referring.

    I just hope you are NOT in the TOTUS Hospital.

  127. Everyone has their favorite way of using the internet. Many of us search to find what we want, click in to a specific website, read what’s available and click out. That’s not necessarily a bad thing because it’s efficient. We learn to tune out things we don’t need and go straight for what’s essential.
