Hotlinking to images

Hotlinking policy of this web site...

I occasionally get a person out there in the world wide web that uses google image search to pick out a signature line image for messages, then he posts HUNDREDS of one line and one word messages just to display his new signature picture, sometimes to make a political statement.

The current pest is a Russian Immigrant (immigration/student-visa status unknown at this time), living in Ann Arbor, Michigan, who picked an image here and has 70 or so friends on a "My Friends" type network called LiveJournal.com. His messages are posted all in Russian. Apparently he came here back in the 90s and attended high school and some college at Moo-U in East Lansing but currently resides in Ann Arbor.

The picture he tried to use as his signature pic has been computer electro-magically changed, using redirection. Requests for that image from an outside referrer site, see the image I want him to display instead. I feel honored each time one of these people gives me the power to select for them what will be the image associated to them. They are stealing MY bandwidth so I get to have some FUN!

Click [HERE] to see what all of his friends see now.

note: This image is on my server, but I can redirect a request to elsewhere on the web. Do a Google search on hotlinking.

A liberal blog on the ropes...

...and is begging for donations to stay online. The SmirkingChimp.com - cache has this banner at the top of their page.

The Smirking Chimp - News And Commentary from the Vast Left-Wing Conspiracy After this weekend, this box goes away until January -- we promise! FINAL DAY! HELD OVER FOR THE WEEKEND FIVE-DAY FUNDRAISER - DAY FIVE - PLEASE HELP! **** WE ARE FLAT BROKE! **** No joke. We are out of money. This fourth-quarter fundraiser could not have come any soooner -- our pockets are empty. In fact, the first thing we will do with your donations is pay last month's bills -- and some from the months before that. Help us out of these dire circumstances and please give what you can. Thanks!

===

Cry me a river!

Doesn't it just make your heart bleed for them? Where is MoveOnKoSoros or one of the other liberal sugar daddies when they need it most? Did they do something to really pissoff someone at MoveOnKoSoros? Where is the "Hate Bush/Hate America/Surrender before we win" crowd when you really need them?

Go talk to someone at Air America. Maybe they will hold a fund raiser telethon for you.

What, they can't fund themselves either?

What is the liberal world coming to?

All those motivational speakers are full of it...

This equation should be taught in all math classes! From a strictly mathematical viewpoint it goes like this:

What Makes 100%? What does it mean to give MORE than 100%? Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%? We have all been to those meetings where someone wants you to give over 100%. How about achieving 103%? What makes up 100% in life?

Here's a little mathematical formula that might help you answer these questions:

If:

A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z is represented as:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 =

Then:

H-A-R-D-W-O-R-K

8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%

And,

K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E

11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%

But,

A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E

1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%

And,

B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T

2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103%

AND, look how far ass kissing will take you.

A-S-S K-I-S-S-I-N-G

1+19+19+11+9+19+19+9+14+7 = 127%

So, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that while Hard Work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, it's the Bullshit and Ass Kissing that will put you over the top!

History Lesson, a little humor to brighten your day!

This was received in email and I am passing it along to you...

The two most important events in all of history were the invention of beer and the invention of the wheel. The wheel was invented to get man to the beer. These were the foundation of modern civilization and together were the catalyst for the splitting of humanity into two distinct subgroups:

1. Liberals

2. Conservatives.

Once beer was discovered, it required grain and that was the beginning of agriculture. Neither the glass bottle nor aluminum can were invented yet, so while our early humans were sitting around waiting for them to be invented, they just stayed close to the brewery.

That's how villages were formed.

Some men spent their days tracking and killing animals to B-B-Q at night while they were drinking beer. This was the beginning of what is known as the Conservative movement.

Other men who were weaker and less skilled at hunting learned to live off the conservatives by showing up for the nightly B-B-Q's and doing the sewing, fetching, and hair dressing. This was the beginning of the Liberal movement.

Some of these liberal men eventually evolved into women. The rest became known as girlie-men or wussies. Some noteworthy liberal achievements include the domestication of cats, the invention of group therapy, group hugs, and the concept of voting to decide how to divide the meat and beer that conservatives provided.

Over the years Conservatives came to be symbolized by the largest, most powerful land animal on earth; the elephant.

Liberals are symbolized by the jackass.

A few modern liberals like Mexican light beer (with lime added), but most prefer a chilled glass of Sauvignon Blanc,with passion fruit and kiwi aromas which are marked by grassy notes, then rounded out on the midpalate by peach flavors Crisp and refreshing, with a hint of chalky minerality on the finish; or Perrier bottled water. They eat raw fish but dislike beef. Sushi, tofu, and French food are standard liberal fare.

Another interesting evolutionary side note: most of their women have higher testosterone levels than their men. Most social workers, personal injury attorneys, Ivy League professors, journalists, dreamers in Hollywood and group therapists are liberals. Liberals invented the designated-hitter rule because it wasn't fair to make the pitcher also bat.

Conservatives drink Sam Adams, Harpoon IPA or Yuengling Lager. They eat red meat and still provide for their women. Conservatives are big-game hunters, rodeo cowboys, lumberjacks, construction workers, firemen, medical doctors, police officers, corporate executives, athletes, Marines, and generally anyone who works productively

Conservatives who own companies hire other conservatives who want to work for a living.

Liberals produce little or nothing. They like to govern the producers and decide what to do with the production. Liberals believe Europeans are more enlightened than Americans That is why most of the liberals remained in Europe when conservatives were coming to America . They crept in after the Wild West was tamed and created a business of trying to get more for nothing.

Here ends today's lesson in world history: It should be noted that a Liberal may have a momentary urge to angrily respond to the above before forwarding it.

A Conservative will simply laugh and be so convinced of the absolute truth of this history that it will be forwarded immediately to other true believers and to more liberals just to piss them off.

The lottery, one armed bandits, and other games of chance

I have won money playing the slots (actually they only take bills, no coins now). I have won a bit of money at the table at the casino. I have won some money at the lottery. But I don't know anyone who has won any of the sweeps from a magazine or plant company. I do not know anyone who knows someone that won from them. The pictures that they show on TV and in the ads of winners... are they real or actors hired for the part? Maybe relatives of management?

I have entered the sweeps of [1]US Purchasing Exchange (defunct), [2]American Family Publishers (defunct), [3]Michigan Bulb Company (defunct), [4]Readers Digest with Ed Whatshisname (still in business but only running sweeps outside the US where State and Federal prosecutors have no jurisdiction), and [5]Publishers Clearing House (still in business). There has been no hint of success. They used to tell me that I was one order away from being a big winner. Now I am one magazine ppurchase away from the executive club or inner circle. Now PCH tells us that buying anything will not improve chances of winning. They put sales promotions on the internet that say purchasing will not improve chances of winning. Then when you try to enter, it says that this is a "sales only internet page" with no way to enter around it, and the disclaimer at the bottom sayin that purchasing will not improve your odds of winning. They did this with a few (snail) mailings too. I havent seen it just recently but I still think about it... and I keep entering because they say that if I dont there is someone right here in my neighborhood with my initials that they will award the cash to.

SSDD

I just looked in my email (and US mail) and another PCH entry is there.

The US mail PCH promotion says I am just one purchase away from the "Inner Circle"! I wonder if this inner circle has any better chance of winning?

The Email says:

Winners Script:

THE PRIZE PATROL IS KNOCKING ON DOOR. A VIDEO CREW IS PRESENT SO THAT THE EXCITING WINNING MOMENT CAN BE CAPTURED ON FILM. CAMERAS ARE ROLLING. PRIZE PATROL HAS "BIG CHECK," FLOWERS, BALLOONS AND CHAMPAGNE. THERE IS EXCITEMENT IN THE AIR.

DAVE SAYER KNOCKS ON THE DOOR

1. DAVE SAYER

You've just won ten million dollars in the Publishers Clearing House Sweepstakes!

2. WINNER

(Excited) I just won ten million dollars from Publishers Clearing House! Now I know it's real!

3. DAVE SAYER

Congratulations, we couldn't be happier for you!

And since you mentioned the special phrase, here's an additional $5,OOO.OO cash on the spot!

DAVE CONGRATULATES WINNER AND HANDS OVER THE "BIG CHECK." PRIZE PATROL PRESENTS FLOWERS AND BALLOONS.

I have been entering the PCH drawings since 1982 (25 years). I bet there are people who have been at it longer who have not won and do not know anyone who knows anyone that has won either. Question: About that additional 5 grand... is it really 50 $100 bills or is it another GREAT BIG CHECK. If that is the case then the ballyhoo about the extra money is wrong too. Cash on the spot can be taken to the store to spend with no bank stops.

But I will be answering the email entry just in case! The prize patrol (if it really exists) might get lost on the way to the winner (if there really is one) and stop at my house instead. I want to be ready... got my ruby slippers...

click, click... "There's no place like home... oops wrong script!"

"Oh Golly Gee, Now I know it is really true! I just won the PCH sweeps."

Hey quit elbowing me. You are interrupting my dream!

---

Question: If the sweeps numbers are administered by an independent judging organization as PCH says in their literature, why will they not tell us the name of the organization? Does secrecy keep them independent or just anonymous to keep questions down? Or is it granny and four nephews?

Among the missing...

With all the mention of the power and might of MoveOn.org and DailyKos, we used to hear mentioned prominently their backer, George Soros... seems that Georgie is getting shy. I just did a look about and he is quietly stepping back from the limelight. He hasn't stopped funding the socialst liberal causes, just not as publicly. He wants to get back to the anonymity that Jon Stryker has.

Terror Attack Coming - Michael Jerkoff head of DHS

From NewsMax.com comes the blockbuster revelation that the jerkoff in charge (under the head jerkoff in the White House) of home land security that we may get hit by Al-Qaida yet this summer. This one is assigned the "No $#!+ Sherlock" award. Bush is the head extortionist with Michael Jerkoff seconding him by keeping our borders open and free flowing for illegals.

[note: Nick comments that I apparently do not like Homeland Security Chief Jerkoff. He's correct. Our Homeland is being left naked at the borders and I am supposed to kneel down and lick his boots? No freakin way!]

Chertoff: Hunch Terror Attack Coming

U.S. counterterror officials are warning of an increased risk of an attack this summer, given al-Qaida's apparent interest in summertime strikes and increased al-Qaida training in the Afghan-Pakistani border region.

On Tuesday, Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff told the editorial board of The Chicago Tribune that he had a "gut feeling" about a new period of increased risk. [It is not important enough to warrant increased security for Bush to order our borders protected by armed National Guards or Army Reservists. He will wait for a mushroom cloud first... unless it takes out DC and Bush with it.Then we do not have to worry about his impeachment or trial for treason.]

Mensa Convention

Mensa Convention

Mensa is an organization whose members have an IQ of 140 or higher. A few years ago, there was a Mensa convention in San Francisco, and several members lunched at a local cafe.

While dining, they discovered that their saltshaker contained pepper and their pepper shaker was full of salt.

How could they swap the contents of the bottles without spilling, and using only the implements at hand? Clearly this was a job for Mensa! The group debated and presented ideas, and finally came up with a brilliant solution involving a napkin, a straw, and an empty saucer. They called the waitress over to dazzle her with their solution.

"Ma'am," they said, "we couldn't help but notice that the pepper shaker contains salt and the salt shaker..."

"Oh," the waitress interrupted. "Sorry about that." She unscrewed the caps of both bottles and switched them.

Immigration reform advocates vow comeback

Al Reuters Islamofascist News Agency and Faked News Pix Agency

By Donna Smith

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Backers of a broad U.S. immigration overhaul on Friday began efforts to revive the stalled bipartisan package in the U.S. Senate amid partisan bickering over who is to blame for the bill's failure.

Sen. Edward Kennedy (news, bio, voting record), a Massachusetts Democrat who helped lead months of painstaking negotiations that produced the fragile compromise, said: "We are not giving up. We are not giving in." Yeah, they will be back like a hemorrhoid.

Obviously citizens are going to have to keep some political Preperation H on hand to shrink bleeding assholes like Kennedy and McCain back to size.

Sonia Ramirez of the trade union organization AFL-CIO said she hopes to see a bill more palatable to labor. Her group opposed the temporary worker program that business groups backed.

Awww c'mon Sonia. You know the AFL-CIO really wants amnesty. You are scared shitless that the rank and file will find this out and toss you out. All of you amnesty whores know that once passed, illegals become legal residents with no further action required. No Z-visas or anything!!! No $5000 fine, no return to the border, no border security trigger. It is all a BIG LIE! The Bush-Kennedy-McCain BIG LIE!

Reply to a Trent Lott sound bite...

On the news tonight, word came down that the Bush-Kennedy-McCain amnesty bill has suffered a big setback. The assholes didn't get the votes that they thought they would get.

There was a 15 second sound bite of Senator Lott saying that "...if we can't pass this maybe we should vote to dissolve this body!"

I jumped up and screamed

"YES!!!"

Go ahead Senator Lott... I triple dog dare you... not a hair on your ass buddy. Go ahead and introduce a bill to dissolve the senate! We will cheer you on.

The senate is full of traitors anyway!

A VERY Quiet Week...

Somewhere, USA an illegal alien shot, stabbed, mugged, raped, or killed a citizen while driving drunk (multiple reports) but these wont be newsworthy because the MSM is sympathetic to law breakering aliens. . Instead the socialist media will be reporting on the sob story of poor little rich bitch, Paris Hilton... and disregarding her drunk driving and parole violations.

Everyone is focusing on the horrid living conditions that Paris Hilton will have to endure at that slovenly South LA women's lockup. She is essentially in solitary and the media is letting out a collective sob for her. The pity party will begin in ernest in about 20 days to let her know how much the world missed her. She is just another manifestation of how low the country has sunk regarding law and order. Anyone else would get the max sentence.

Minor update: After only three days there was a clemency hearing and she has been released to house arrest with a tether.

Last mention: Friday morning the judge ordered Paris Hilton back to locku8p to serve the full 45 days after massive outrage was expressed over judicial favoritism for the very rich. Paris had a hissy, screaming and crying. Poor little spoiled rich-biatch! It will be kinda interesting to see what 45 days of country club jail does for her. She obviously is nowhere near as mature about all this as was Martha Stewart. Paris has always been used to getting her own way and that is obviously why she went into hysterics.

This is my last mention of her. Hey paris, kiss this!

She is not news or even interesting.

It's the weekend - an early start...

WHY IT'S IMPORTANT TO SPEAK ENGLISH

When I got back to Michigan last month I had a bunch of Canadian dollars I needed to exchange, so I went to the currency exchange window at the local bank. Short line.

Just one guy in front of me, an Asian guy who was trying to exchange yen for dollars and he was a little irritated!

He asked the teller, "Why it change?? Yestoday, I get two dolla fo yen. Today I get one dolla eighty?? Why it change?"

The teller shrugged her shoulders and said, "Fluctuations".

The Asian guy says, "Fluc you white people too!"

Coulter: John Edwards a faggot

cross posted from Irate Nation

[Minus the non-working video]

Ann Coulter Calls John Edwards a ‘Faggot’

The buzz on this from the outraged left is typical. Yet the double standars lived out by the left go unchallenged or self checked. It is ok for the left to throw flames on the president via name calling or death threats. Yet the pc crowd gets their panties in a bunch over what was a seriously funny comment. Their was a time when gay meant something entirly different. HMMMM now its offensive to call a gay person a fag. Yet in europe a fag is a cigerette. Funny, the english language gets bastardized in so many ways. Eye for an I. Its always amusing when the self proclaimed openminded elites get bent out of shape when it comes to free speech from another of differing ideologies. So to all the FAG smokers of europe… to you I say have a GAY day.

And to all of you double standerdized pc nazi’s GET BENT…. OVER PERHAPS

Algore's exhalations cause global warming

Cure global warming with bovine Beano

by Nolan Finley - Detroit News

E verybody toots. And every time we do, it's another nail in the Earth's coffin.

Al Gore is urging all of us to do the little things to fight global warming. (I'm certain Gore is screwing in low-energy light bulbs at his Nashville mansion to trim his $1,000 a month electric bill, though I can't say how many former vice presidents it takes to do that job).

His example has moved me. My contribution -- no more cabbage, refried beans or other tooty foods.

Because methane, often a byproduct of flatulence, is one of the most damaging greenhouse gases.

Most of that methane comes out of cattle, although one-third of humans generate the toxic gas when they rip one. (That's according to the shocking number of Web sites devoted to the subject.)

Farty cows poot more damaging emissions than the entire transportation segment, including automobiles. Each time a cow cuts the cheese, the resulting gas warms the Earth 23 times faster than the carbon dioxide emitted by cars and trucks.

Cattle are responsible for 18 percent of greenhouse gases, according to a United Nations' report issued last fall.

And yet the automakers, and not the agricultural industry, are on the congressional carpet, where they face radically higher fuel economy standards.

The mandates could cost more than $100 billion to implement, put one or more of the Big Three over the edge and take the national economy into the toilet.

Odds & Ends; like "What did the jockstrap say to the Jock?"

Cross posted from Renew America

Curtis Dahlgren
February 23, 2007


"How long before they start blaming global warming for the decomposition of Anna Nicole's body?" — Charlie Sykes (www.620wtmj.com) 2/22/07

THAT'S NOT THE ANSWER TO THE RIDDLE; I'LL GET TO THAT IN A MINUTE. Excuse the "rambling" today, but it's been such a crazy week that I don't know where to start. The third week of Black History Month has featured "crossover" news:

The hard news was on the weather channel; the weather was on the comedy channel; the comedy was on CNN; and the Judge Judy show was preempted — by the Florida judicial system. And the rest of the sociological and legal news was on ESPN.

What a country! "Entertainment Tonight" was upstaged by the Geography channel, and the other 555 channels were missing in action. OH — that reminds me: What did the jockstrap say to the Jock?

"I support the troops, but not the mission."

I should have used that joke sooner, because the politicians have milked that line dry and have moved on to "We will protect the troops." Hocus-pocus focus groups will never run out of catch-phrases, like drug companies coming up with new names for drugs.

Movie DVDs now have "alternative endings," so maybe it's time for alternative punch lines. For example, I was considering this riddle: "What did the jockey shorts say to the journalist?"

Answer: "Where's the beef, Tim?"

That reminds me of another riddle: "What did the National Guard troops on the Rio Grande say to the invaders?"

Answer: "We'll leave the light on for you."

How about this one: "What did the Homeland Security investigators say to the Border Patrol agents?"

Answer: "We threw away the key, so don't even think about appealing your case."

That wasn't a joke; that was hard news. One of the missing headlines of the week was this one: MAN BITES DOG; MESSENGER SHOOTS BULL.

So what should you do when the "messenger" doesn't report the news? What should you do when the messenger chickafies the news? What should you do when the #1 news item is "Will the real father of Anna Nicole's baby please stand up?"

Answer: "Put on your hip boots."

You might be a redneck...

We have enjoyed the redneck jokes for years. It's time to take a reflective look at the core beliefs of a culture that values home, family, country and God.

If I had to stand before a dozen terrorists who threaten my life, I'd choose a half dozen or so rednecks to back me up. Tire irons, squirrel guns and grit -- that's what rednecks are made of. I hope I am one of those. If you feel the same, pass this on to your redneck friends. Ya'll know who ya' are...

You might be a redneck if: It never occurred to you to be offended by the phrase, "One nation, under God."

You might be a redneck if: You've never protested about seeing the 10 Commandments posted in public places.

You might be a redneck if: You still say " Christmas" instead of "Winter Festival."

You might be a redneck if: You bow your head when someone prays.

You might be a redneck if: You stand and place your hand over your heart when they play the National Anthem.

You might be a redneck if: You treat Viet Nam vets with great respect, and always have.

You might be a redneck if: You've never burned an American flag.

You might be a redneck if: You know what you believe and you aren't afraid to say so, no matter who is listening.

You might be a redneck if: You respect your elders and expect your kids to do the same.

You might be a redneck if: You'd give your last dollar to a friend.

God Bless the USA!

West Michigan weather

We have been under a blizzard warning for the past two days. Yesterday, the police agencies were asking people to stay inside, off the roads if you did not absolutely have to be going somewhere. The roads were icy with snow on top. BAD! I had made a trip out to pick up some chili makin's - 3 lbs of ground beef, a big sweet onion, a large green pepper and a couple jalapenos, a can of tomato sauce and another of stewed tomatos, a large can of red beans, and finally a package of Carrol Shelby's chili spice mix. It makes the best tasting chili I have tried. Perfect for this cold weather. Current temperature is 6 degrees F, wind chill is -20 degrees. This is perfect weather for penguins, polar bears, and snowmobilers!

On the television, when the weather is like this, there is a continuous scroller on the bottom of the screen listing events that are closed due to inclement weather... one of them was a church, which shall remain nameless here. They announced that Sunday worship services were cancelled due to the terrible weather. It was followed by an announcement that the Super Bowl party was still on as planned.

Michigan, the Mirror of DC?

I was just reviewing some things that I have promised to track, such as the tax shift perpretrated by a group of Michigan Republicans and Democrats. They voted to shift the collection of county taxes SIX MONTHS EARLY back in 2004, phased in 1/3 of the tax at a time so as to make you forget that they have done it. This summer (2007) the FULL county winter tax (due in the winter of 2007-2008) become the county summer tax (of 2007) collected SIX MONTHS EARLY. I wonder what other taxes they will want to collect like this? Granholm was in office when this was done and signed it! She is absolutely HUNGRY for tax money to piss away right now. Any time Democrats (and some Republicans) get hands on new tax funds they start plotting how to spend it other than what it was intended for. Here is the list of Michigan Legislators who authorized EARLY collection of taxes. This was a lame duck session for many and they were absolutely FEARLESS! Nothing could sway them from voting for this tax increase. A tax collected EARLY is an increase because your current tax bil increases and it leaves a gaping hole where a tax used to be for the tax-and-spenders to fill with a new tax, fee, or other euphamism for money out of your pocket. Now the bastardstaxers will have to fill that hole with a new tax this coming winter (2007-2008). There was a Republican majority that did this to us in 2004! Michigan is a "blue state" even with a GOP majority. Even when we had a Republican governor... On many social and fiscal issues there's hardly any difference but how you spell the party affiliation. It is less opposition and more a matter of degree of agreement.

We have so many pseudo-cons supporting big government RINOs and hard blue state moderates for the 2008 presidential nomination that we don't know what to do.

Anyhow back to the intent of this post... to relist all the culprits who foisted this tax on us. The only thing worse is a retroactive tax like Jimmy Boy Blanchard (D) pull on us.

The 2004 Michigan HOUSE taxers...

Accavitti(D), Adamini(D), Bieda(D), Brown(D), Byrum(D), Caul(R), Clack(D), Condino(D), Dennis(D), DeRoche(R), DeRossett(R), Elkins(D), Emmons(R), Farrah(D), Gaffney(R), Gieleghem(D), Gillard(D), Gleason(D), Hart(R), Hopgood(D), Howell(R), Jamnick(D), Rick Johnson(R), Koetje(R), Kolb(D), Kooiman(R), Lipsey(D), Meisner (D), Meyer(R), Minore(D), Murphy(D), Newell(R), O'Neil(D), Palsrok(R), Phillips(D), Plakas (D), Pumford(R), Rivet(D), Sak(D), Shackleton(R), Shaffer(R), Sheltrown(D), Shulman(R), Stallworth(D), Steil(R), Tabor(R), Van Regenmorter(R), VanderVeen(R), Walker(R), Waters(D), Wenke(R), Whitmer(D), Williams(D), Wojno(D), Zelenko(D)

Lots of familiar names from this past midterm election! Some of these taxers ran (unsuccessfully) for other offices!

Doug Hart (a one term state congressman) decided not to run again. Others have also been term limited out

The 2004 Michigan SENATE taxers...

Allen(R), Basham(D), Birkholz(R), Brater(D), Clarke(D), Emerson(D), Garcia(R), George(R), Hammerstrom(R),Hardiman(R), Jacobs(D), Jelinek(R), Johnson(R), Kuipers(R), Leland(D), Olshove(D), Prusi(D), Schauer(D), Sikkema(R), Stamas(R), Switalski(D), Thomas(D), VanWoerkom(R)

We will have to be vigilant so that these 'servants of government' do not slip the green weenie to us again. Remember...from now on when you pay the county summer tax it is really the winter tax collected six months in advance

Our tax and spenders in Lansing hope that you will not remember any of this as they come up with new innovative ways to abscond with your wallet.

How to destroy America by Governor Richard Lamm

I love the internet! Here is something that I just stumbled across. It is a five minute speech by Richard Lamm, former Governor of Colorado.

Governor Lamm is a Democrat. This speech is two years old. In today's political reality, a majority of Democrats and a supporting minority of Republicans (US Senate and White House) are diligently working to make the USA into a salad bowl instead of a melting pot. Multiculturalism is a disease that the US is infected with and it will take us down unless something is done. We can make a big hit on this by starting to deport illegal aliens!
