My answer to Senator mccain's global warming plan

  • 3 days ago
  • 1 comment

I figured out the way to save the world from global warming, get more energy for the US, get more health care, and not have to cling so tightly to my God or firearms.

  1. Those that believe in global warming must first put their money in a trust in case something happens they die.
  2. Those that believe in global warming must hold their breath indefinitely since we are told that Carbon Dioxide causes global warming.

Now after these two things several things could occur:

  1. The needy will have health care that isn't tax payer funded
  2. We will be able to use the oil that those that would have been in opposition to SUVs or my beloved Elly May.
  3. We can drill off the coasts and in ANWAR
  4. We can build nuclear facilities
  5. Since the vast majority of tree huggers is anti firearms and anti self-defense, no more NFA of 1934 (Dang I want a Thompson)
  6. Prayer in school more often than before tests allowed
  7. Lower taxes.
  8. No more social security. (I want my money to invest on my own!!!)
  9. Better educational system.
  10. No more RINOs
  11. I get to be the next El Presidente for life of Cuba. (I hear Cuba has the best cigars and I've always wanted my own banana republic so...)

Since I'm just a hick, I realize those that believe in global warming won't listen to me nothing will change for the better and all we get worthless candidates...well at least I can make fun of them.

Mayor bloomberg thinks that your body belongs to the government

  • May 9, 2008
  • 3 comments

The USA Today is reporting that New York City's ambulances will prep a corpse for organ transportation before getting consent from family members.

This concept just underscores how the concept of tax payer health care will not only take away our freedom of choice, but shows an inherent belief by government officials that people are subservient to the government.

We are at the point in our countries history if we are going to have to decide if our freedom is more important than what the government thinks we should do. The thought that the government can desecrate a body because it deems it's necessary should run shivers across the hide of every freedom loving person.

Woodrow Wilson Keeble to Receive North Dakota's Highest Award

  • May 8, 2008
  • 1 comment

KFYRtv.com is Reporting:


The honors have come years after his passing, but to his family and fellow soldiers, he`s always been a hero.
Woodrow Wilson Keeble will receive North Dakota`s highest honor, the Roughrider Award. Governor Hoeven says it`s given to people who have achieved national recognition that honors the people of North Dakota. Keeble had served in World War Two and in the Korean War.In 1951, he saved the lives of his platoon members by single-handedly killing more than a dozen enemy soldiers while he was wounded. He passed away in 1982. Earlier this year, President Bush presented the Medal of Honor to members of his family. Keeble will be the 36th North Dakotan to receive the Roughrider award. Hoeven says there will be a formal induction ceremony in a couple of months. He says the timing is right because of the work our soldiers are doing overseas in the war on terror."His selfless acts, his courage, his care for his fellow soldiers I think epitomizes our great North Dakota soldiers," Hoeven says.Keeble was raised in Wahpeton. He was the first full-blooded Sioux to win the Medal of Honor.

A tax every American can get behind

  • May 3, 2008
  • 3 comments

I was talking to my beloved sister tonight and we came up with an exciting new tax plan that every American citizen can and should get behind. We decided that to raise revenue through taxes that we tax every political advertisement whether it is a yard sign, radio or TV ad.

It will be a progressive tax, those that have more will be taxed more. The base rate will be 20% per ad, but if calling for money for a failed government project the rate will be 40%. Telling the populace that they are racist for wanting the law enforced 60%, saying that we need another government program 70%, an ad that advocates personal responsibility .05%. Also, if a candidate is an incumbent the rate would be higher to make things fair for competitor to run an equal campaign.

If the tax on firearms and ammunition isn't unConstitutional this shouldn't either because it isn't an attempt to regulate free speech, but to help the populace.

This tax would also cover the 527 and could also affect groups I believe in, such as M.A.D.D or the NRA, but the objective is for politicians to understand what an over burdensome tax burden is and to provide tax relief for us taxpayers.

If you drive drunk you have no business in public life

  • May 3, 2008
  • 2 comments

New York Republican Congressman got busted for drunk driving Thursday with a BAC of .17. He is only going to receive FIVE days for a criminal act that could kill an innocent person.

I don't care what party a person is whether or not it's a kennedy, les lemm, or a Republican if you are going to be so selfish to put others to risk you should be no where near public office. The sheer amount of arrogance of politicians that care more about their enjoyment than those they pass laws on the populace. It is the very definition of elitism to expect the citizenry to follow the laws that they flaunt because they can.

Any politician that acts like they are above the law should go.

New Jersey needs to have a "Trenton Taco Party."

  • Apr 30, 2008
  • 1 comment

From the files of I'm glad I'm not a cityslicker, New Jersey is contemplating a sin tax on fast food.

While I understand the budget shortfall in New Jersey stinks worse than a long shore men in August, but to continue to raise taxes is only going to cause those that can't afford it to suffer. Those than can afford to leave are going to leave New Jersey, and those are the people that the Democrats love to claim they care about...but always suffer the most by their 'benevolent patronage.'

The state maybe should look at cutting services first and let people keep their money before anymore suffocating taxes

I figured the clintons would ruin Senator obama, just didn't figure he'd make it easy for them

  • Apr 30, 2008
  • 1 comment

The New York Daily News columnist Errol Louis has written an article where he shows the organizer at the National press club with jeremiah wright is a clinton supporter.

Whether not Senator obama totally agrees with his spiritual leader there is enough to show he at least agrees to a degree. What I even missed with his hickaphobic statement is his complete devotion to marxism. Senator obama's damage control he kept talking about how us hicks are mad that government has failed us. There are a couple huge problems with this thought. Senator obama may believe in the Almighty, I don't know, but his god is clearly government because it is clear he unable to believe that there are people that can live their lives without the table scraps from the swamp on the Potomac River. Shoot, I have yet to meet a liberal hick that doesn't get the concept of self-reliance because where Los Angeles may have to only wait 15 minutes for the police to respond it can take upwards of 45 minutes for a Sheriff's Deputy running lights and sirens across the county quickly cures the thought that government can do everything.

Over the last two days I've heard the argument he just went to that 'church' for the political connections, but how's that different than any other politician that has tried smoke and mirrors.

If you add up that weatherman underground friend, jeremiah wright, and his hatred for those that are responsible for feeding the world...he's just making it too easy for Mrs. bill clinton to steal the nomination.

April 28, 1996

A week ago I was looking forward to this post with a bloodthirsty grin, but hopefully what clicked this last week sticks once and for all. The reasons this important is I owe it to Dad and the people of Minnesota, especially since the felony that was supposed to follow him until the day he died disappeared in 2006. About a month ago I had someone from Minneapolis run a search for LES LEMM. Considering how he tried to manipulate mom when he tried to run for public office I believe it needs to be done.

Over the past few years I have called LES a murderer. I realize that no state recognizes drunk driving as murder, but there are some facts that I've glossed over because they were irrelevant at the time. It came out in court papers two important facts that make this by any stretch of any state law if it would have been tried properly as third degree murder:

  1. He wanted to become a Law Enforcement Officer-meaning he knew what could happen by driving drunk.
  2. He pulled over to sleep it off. He knew he was a drunk. This makes it depraved indifference murder.

LES has NEVER accepted responsibility. He has blamed my sister, he has blamed the woman he was out with for 'loosing him in the bar.' When allegedly allecuted he tried to claim he suffered because a friend of his committed suicide. I have no doubt it's hard to have a friend eat a gun, but I don't take kindly to people that try to kill my mom, my sister, or myself let alone slaughter an innocent man. This position of having suffered shows that he either doesn't get or care what he did.

To be fair, I hate myself almost as much as I hate him. The fact that we did the Christian thing and showing mercy instead of seeking justice has kept me up more nights than I can count. The only thing I fear about death is trying to explain to God how I could compromised what I knew was the right thing leading up to the court date. So this leads my back to why this important. He has no business in public life, since a felon effectively looses their citizenship, and since it was my fault he walked away scott free there is no other recourse than this.

I realize that their Christians that won't understand why I do this and I'll probably hear the whole you're going to burn in Hell argument again, but unfortunately Christians have lost sight that God is a God of justice as well as mercy.

Expelled-a movie review

  • Apr 22, 2008

First off, I believe in the Genesis account. I don't know whether or not the six days are 24 hr days and there are things I question. There are no question there are variations, but for my money the holes that darwinism has is too much for me to swallow. I personally believe that the three theories of how life began should be taught unbiasedly so people can make up their own mind on what to believe (Same for economics, history, and all of life for that matter).

I honestly was expecting a little funnier of a documentary. The trailer for Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed left that impression. While there were a couple chuckles it was done more a scholarly pursuit.

The opening credits started out with the building of the Berlin Wall which led Mr. Stein talking about who were are as American, how the freedom of speech and the free change of ideas is so important to who we are as a people and how dangerous it is for science to silence those who dissent from the 'consensus' of evolution.

I'll be honest after Mr. Stein started on who we are as Americans I was hooked, but the part where I was blown away was where they were talking about how complex a molecule is...I don't know about anyone else in the theater, or if any of the intellent design people for that matter see the Hand of God in Creation.

It also talked about what happens with science research without ethics...the inevitable result is eugenics. It is not something that is conjecture, it was manifested in the national socialist movement in 1930 Germany (joe stalin also had the same pursuits in the ussr).

This is a must see film for ALL Americans. Whether or not Creation, intelligent design, or evolution is adopted for a personal philosophy questioning what YOU believe and why is paramount to the essence of man and shutting off discussion because you can't handle the truth is narrow minded (well more than a couple weeks anyway).
