Harry Reid: American Taxation is a Voluntary System

Just in case you were still on the fence about liberal democrats and their thinking, this may change your mind. Remember: “It depends on what the meaning of the word ‘is’ is. If the–if he–if ‘is’ means is and never has been, that is not–that is one thing. If it means there is none, that was a completely true statement…” Classic, that’s a master speaking.

Here’s another esteemed colleague of the house of Democrats:

Disney Did No Wrong in Assault Case

Here’s the background. This kid “allegedly,” of course, has CP and is autistic. At 2:30, Darth Maul comes along the route. What happens is history as far as his dad is concerned. You can click through to see the comments on the YouTube page if you want. Below is my take on it, and I’m interested in your view of the event.

Watch the kid at the beginning. He walks right up to one of the parade members and is greeted warmly, thus making him think that this behavior is appropriate. It is NOT appropriate for any child to walk into a parade route. EVER. It’s dangerous and someone, heaven forbid it be his parents, should have stopped that immediately as if he was running into the street. Hey, that sort of looks like a street, doesn’t it? Dad, maybe you should shut up and stop filming the parade and reign your son in before he gets himself killed now or later in a real street.

So, Darth Maul approaches. What does the kid do? He runs straight at him with his arms up in what could easily be perceived as an attack on Darth Maul. The actor was simply protecting himself. He doesn’t know the kid’s mentally handicapped. That push off to the side (where he belongs) was very appropriate of someone being potentially attacked.

Maybe you should hang a sign around your kid’s neck that says,

“My kid’s got issues related to autism. He won’t attack (even though it looks like he might). Please discipline him calmly and gently in my absence from his development.” – His dad

If the Florida Attorney General ever sees this case, he needs to throw it out and fine the parent for lack of parenting. Hopefully, since this video has been around since last June, it’s already run its course.

Barack Obama – The Great American Drunk

Chug! Chug! Chug!

How much do you have to drink in order for your annual physical to declare a physician recommended “moderation of alcohol intake?” I’m guessing it’s significant unless he’s got some sort of genetic kidney or liver issue that pre-disposes him to issues with small amounts of alcohol that would be generally consistent with “social drinking.” Short of being an alcoholic or a medical freak, I can’t imagine why the doctors suggested putting down that drink.

On to the bigger issue

Do we want a president who is even moderately intoxicated? Personally, I think that would explain a lot about his decisions and spending sprees of the last year, but that’s not even where I’m going here. So, the next 9/11 hits us because he’s asleep at the wheel of national security and dismantling the fabric of our being bit by bit. Do we want a “leader” who has just pounded back 14 beers or 3 screwdrivers?

I think not.

Re: Rubio’s Personal Charges Exposed

I wrote another letter to the editor of tbt* this week. It looks like they were really focused on the orca killing a Sea World trainer for today’s letters, so mine didn’t get published. Here it is anyway.

Hardly a week goes by without news of some politician at the state or national level who has just been caught spending taxpayer money. This bad behavior goes on on both sides of the isle, too, as they reported that Pelosi spent $101k for “in-flight services” including booze and flights for friends and family during the past year.

This is nothing short of theft of taxpayer funds. It’s criminal. Business can’t purchase personal items and count them as expenses. Non-profit organizations can’t, either. Those people go to jail, as should these criminals. Just because they were elected to office by the people does not give them a blank check for carte blanche spending – in fact, it’s just the opposite. They should be held to higher standards of responsibility and face sterner punishments for breaking the trust of the people.

We the people need to start tossing our elected officials out on the street until we the people are represented by honest people of high moral standards.
