Must Be Racist Gangbangers!</title><content type='html'>Tough day at work for the Crew. &amp;nbsp;What with the mild winter we've had, it's getting harder and harder to find good baby seal clubbing ground. &amp;nbsp;Anyway, I digress. &amp;nbsp;I settle down in front of my computer, only to learn that the name of my country is now classified as a racist attack. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;At a high school basketball game in San Antonio, the student section of the winning team apparently started chanting USA, USA, USA as the game wound down. &amp;nbsp;For the record, the winning school (Alamo Heights High) is primarily Caucasian and the losing school (Thomas Edison High) is primarily Hispanic. &amp;nbsp;Predictably, officials from Thomas Edison were offended and perceived the chant as racist. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Here is the issue being discussed on Fox News program The Five.....&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;script src="http://video.foxnews.com/v/embed.js?id=1494459895001&amp;amp;w=466&amp;amp;h=263" type="text/javascript"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;noscript&gt;Watch the latest video at &amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;a href="http://video.foxnews.com"&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;video.foxnews.com&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;/a&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;&lt;/noscript&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;At around the 7:30 mark in the video, Juan Williams compares the incident to one that SACSTW covered &lt;a href="http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2011/11/san-fran-judge-us-flag-equivalent-to.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. &amp;nbsp;In that incident, high school students in the People's Republic of California were deemed to have been racially offensive to Hispanic students. Their crime...wearing Tshirts depicting the American flag. &amp;nbsp;Unbelievably, Juan Williams equated that with "wearing gang colors". &amp;nbsp;Let me tell you folks, if red, white, and blue are the new gang colors, then patch me in. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The take-home message about the USA chant from those who took offense is that the chant was out of context because the game was not an "international" contest. &amp;nbsp;The game was between two schools located in the USA, with the students on both sides being Americans. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hmmm, somebody better tell Rosalba Aguillon. &amp;nbsp;Ms. Aguillon is a student at Thomas Edison High, and was interviewed about the incident by Fox News. &amp;nbsp;She explained that she was offended "&lt;b&gt;coming from a school that has mainly Mexicans&lt;/b&gt;. I feel that was wrong, they shouldn't have chanted that". &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In fact, it is much ado about nothing. &amp;nbsp;Sound engineers in the SACSTW research lab have uncovered the truth behind the chanting at Alamo Heights High. &amp;nbsp;The students were simply celebrating Tom Vilsack's recent announcement of 1.2 million in federal grant money made available for rural Texans. &amp;nbsp;That's right, if you listen closely you can hear the students lusty cry of USDA, USDA, USDA! &amp;nbsp;It brings a tear to my eye to see youngsters so supportive of bloated federal bureaucracies. &amp;nbsp;Touching really.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gotta run for now, I'm going to head down to the creek and catch a mess of snail darters for lunch. &amp;nbsp;Tasty little critters, but you need a bucket full to make a decent meal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6269879682383107786-5142740081517455229?l=sahibandcrew.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/feeds/5142740081517455229/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/03/usa-usa-usa-must-be-racist-gangbangers.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/5142740081517455229'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/5142740081517455229'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/03/usa-usa-usa-must-be-racist-gangbangers.html' title='USA USA USA!

Parasite of the Year, Amanda Clayton, is why we hate government assistance programs. &amp;nbsp;Ms. Clayton is 24 years old, unemployed, and lives in an small home in Lincoln Park, Michigan. &amp;nbsp;Ms. Clayton is on food stamps. &amp;nbsp;You might think, "Gee, this is exactly the kind of person who needs a helping hand. &amp;nbsp;She deserves tax-payer funded food stamps."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;What you may not know, is that Ms. Clayton won $1,000,000 in the Michigan state lottery last fall. &amp;nbsp;Unfortunately, poor Ms. Clayton did not actually receive $1,000,000. &amp;nbsp;After taking a lump sum and paying taxes, she received the pittance of a little over $500,000. &amp;nbsp;For you KCMO public school attendees, that is $100,000 a year for the next five years. &amp;nbsp;Tax free. &amp;nbsp;Despite her windfall, Ms. Clayton continues to receive (and use) $200 a month in food stamps.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;When asked if she felt she deserved and it was right to continue to receive food stamps, this was her reply:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;&lt;strong style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; color: #4e4e4e; font-family: 'Myriad Pro', 'Trebuchet MS', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;“I feel that it’s okay because I mean, I have no income and I have bills to pay,” she said. “I have two houses.”&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; color: #4e4e4e; font-family: 'Myriad Pro', 'Trebuchet MS', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;You can view the news story of her plight in the video below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/xTjEwuuBRBE?rel=0" width="560"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am a realist. &amp;nbsp;I understand that any government assistance program, no matter how well run, will have fraud and abuse. &amp;nbsp;Although I believe that everything that can be done to limit these things should be done, I am willing to except some degree of &amp;nbsp;fraud and abuse in the interest of helping people who truly need it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What infuriates me is that this woman truly believes she "deserves" food stamp assistance because she doesn't have a job. &amp;nbsp;Sadly, she is not really to blame for feeling this way. &amp;nbsp;The liberal establishment has brain-washed people into believing they "deserve" to have the government take care of their every need. &amp;nbsp;I mean poor Amanda has bills, two houses, and no job. &amp;nbsp;It's her right as an American that the government takes care of her. &amp;nbsp;It's not her fault that she happens to have $500,000 in the bank. &amp;nbsp;The money comes from the government, right? &amp;nbsp;It's not like it comes from people with children, bills, ONE house, and jobs.&amp;nbsp;What do heartless conservatives expect her to do? &amp;nbsp;Get a job?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Conservatives are continually accused of trying to keep the less fortunate repressed. &amp;nbsp;When in actuality, what better way is there to keep them down than to convince them that their existence is completely dependent on the&amp;nbsp;largess&amp;nbsp;of those in power?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Until parents (I've given up on the public school systems) start&amp;nbsp;imbuing their children with a work ethic and sense of personal&amp;nbsp;responsibility, we will see more and more people like the parasitic Ms. Clayton. &amp;nbsp;And stories like this will continue to push my blood pressure to the point where my brain is likely to explode.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I implore you parents to teach your children that no one "owes" them anything except the opportunity to work hard and accomplish great things in their lives. &amp;nbsp;I really don't want my brain to explode. &amp;nbsp;Mrs. Sahib will make me clean it up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Editor's note: &amp;nbsp;Our good friend Carma pointed out that my satirical and hyperbolic statements about conservatives might be misconstrued by any liberals reading this post. &amp;nbsp;I was illustrating the way conservatives are portrayed by the left. &amp;nbsp;For any lefties reading this, you can look up satirical and hyperbolic at: &amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://www.dictionary.com/" target="_blank"&gt;www.dictionary.com&amp;nbsp;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6269879682383107786-8037974611797100725?l=sahibandcrew.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/feeds/8037974611797100725/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/03/why-conservatives-hate-food-stamps-meet.html#comment-form' title='11 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/8037974611797100725'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/8037974611797100725'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/03/why-conservatives-hate-food-stamps-meet.html' title='Why Conservatives Hate Food Stamps: Meet Amanda Clayton'/><author><name>Sahib</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02710077740526033868</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Bc5VjYSDN_o/T1gzeKERzjI/AAAAAAAAAPA/1xjRQJeht4w/s72-c/Amanda.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>11</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6269879682383107786.post-7269008534328118114</id><published>2012-03-07T09:46:00.004-06:00</published><updated>2012-03-07T09:46:53.471-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Stanley'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Karl Marx'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Cavernous Trachea'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Iran'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='contraception'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Israel'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dear Leader'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Moochelle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Rush Limbaugh'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Benjamin Netanyahu'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Joe Biden'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Obama'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Sandra Fluke'/><title type='text'>Cavernous Trachea Strikes Again!

Your friend, CT " &amp;nbsp;This was the letter enclosed:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;Dear Karl,&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;I don't care what anyone says! &amp;nbsp;I did NOT have another "episode". &amp;nbsp;Maybe my celebration was a little excessive, but once again my actions were misinterpreted. &amp;nbsp;I probably shouldn't have done my Yosemite Sam imitation, snatched that Secret Service agent's gun out of his holster, and started shooting holes into the ceiling of the Oval Office, but I was just so darn excited. &amp;nbsp;Things are really starting to come together. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;Joe hasn't said anything incredibly stupid in the last 24 hours. (I wonder if he's in the country.) Moochelle is planning another vacation and is going to be on Leno so she hasn't been nagging me about smoking. &amp;nbsp;The republicans are beating the crap out of each other in the primaries. &amp;nbsp;Breitbart's death has delayed the release of his "Obama Gone Wild" video series at least for a while. &amp;nbsp;Life is good! &amp;nbsp;But you know what Karl? &amp;nbsp;That's not what really has me revved up. &amp;nbsp;I have accomplished two things I thought would never happen in my presidency.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;My two biggest enemies, Rush Limbaugh and Benjamin Netanyahu, have really screwed the pooch. &amp;nbsp;I think I've really snowed Bibi about Iran. &amp;nbsp;I think I've lulled him into complacency by repeating "Give negotiations a chance! Give sanctions a chance!" over and over again. &amp;nbsp;I never thought he would buy it, but I believe he has. &amp;nbsp;He has to keep the rhetoric up to assuage his constituency, but I think I can stall him long enough that Iran will have nukes before Israel feels they have to preemptively strike. &amp;nbsp;I am SO smart. &amp;nbsp;But he's just the little Satan. &amp;nbsp;I've scored my biggest victory against the Great Satan, Rush Limbaugh.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;I can't believe Rush fell for DNC plant, "23" year old Sandra Fluke. &amp;nbsp;I mean it was SOOOO obvious. &amp;nbsp;She's a Cornell graduate for Pete's sake, and that's where I "went" to college. (Hee, hee, hee) Wait, no, I "went" to Columbia. &amp;nbsp;Oh well, whatever. &amp;nbsp;She was perfect with her "cherished" friend who lost her ovary due to the pernicious policies of the Georgetown administration. &amp;nbsp;I can't believe no one thought to ask why such a champion of female contraceptive rights wouldn't chip in a few bucks a month to help a "cherished" friend in dire medical straights. Or why didn't her anonymous friend go to Planned Parenthood or any of the multiple free clinics in DC? &amp;nbsp;Stupid conservatives. &amp;nbsp;And then Rush takes the bait hook, line, and sinker by calling her a slut and prostitute. &amp;nbsp;I couldn't get the talking points off the Media Matters fast enough. &amp;nbsp;Five dollar a gallon gas, trafficking guns to Mexican drug cartels, the Volt going belly up, more "green" energy companies propped up by federal loans failing, who cares? &amp;nbsp;Rush obliquely called someone a slut. &amp;nbsp;This has been the best week ever.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;Well Karl, I have to go. &amp;nbsp;The doctors won't give me any more of those B12 shots that make me feel so good. &amp;nbsp;Eric Holder has to sneak them to me down in the kitchen. &amp;nbsp;If I don't take them, my unicorn, Stanley, doesn't show up for our evening rides on the South Lawn. &amp;nbsp;Thanks for letting me share my awesome news with you.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;Your friend,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;Barry&lt;/blockquote&gt;&amp;nbsp;I dug through Sahib Jr.'s backpack looking for more clues as to the identity of Cavernous Trachea. &amp;nbsp;All I found were some gumdrops in the bottom of his backpack. &amp;nbsp;Sahib Jr. hates gumdrops. &amp;nbsp;Hmmmmm....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6269879682383107786-7269008534328118114?l=sahibandcrew.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/feeds/7269008534328118114/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/03/cavernous-trachea-strikes-again-obama.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/7269008534328118114'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/7269008534328118114'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/03/cavernous-trachea-strikes-again-obama.html' title='Cavernous Trachea Strikes Again!

Cupp should have been aborted by her mother?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10) Finally Mr. President, and most importantly....What percentage of an American citizen's income should he or she be allowed to

/&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;While our national media and central government were busy discussing the sexual appetites of a Georgetown University law student, you might have missed this "shocking" event over the weekend. &amp;nbsp;As predicted in &lt;a href="http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2011/10/hey-everybody-vlad-is-putting-band-back.html"&gt;this space back in October&lt;/a&gt;, former KGB strongman Vladimir Putin has regained the presidency of Russia. &amp;nbsp;Despite reports of massive voting fraud, including an admission from Mikhail Gorbachev that "these are not going to be honest elections", Putin is back in the office he previously held from 2000-2008. &amp;nbsp;He now has another 6 years to work on his vision of a "Eurasian Union", a Moscow-led conglomerate of nation-states that he says will be based on trade, not ideology. &amp;nbsp;Right. &amp;nbsp;Just like the KGB was based on protecting the rights of individual citizens of the Soviet Union. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Dear Leader has recently been blowing his own horn about how American oil production is up under his "leadership". &amp;nbsp;This is just another example of progressives taking credit for things they have nothing to do with. &amp;nbsp;Let's look at the facts as supplied by the Institute of Energy Research:&lt;/li&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Oil production on federal lands in FY2011 &lt;b&gt;declined&lt;/b&gt; 11% from FY2010. &amp;nbsp;Oil production on state-owned and private lands &lt;b&gt;increased &lt;/b&gt;14% in the same time period.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Natural gas production on federal lands in FY2011 &lt;b&gt;declined&lt;/b&gt; 27% from FY2010. &amp;nbsp;Natural gas production on state-owned and private lands &lt;b&gt;increased&lt;/b&gt; 28% in the same time period.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;The Obama administration is woeful when it comes to getting American energy resources to its citizens. &amp;nbsp;But hey, I'm sure they will do much better with your health care!&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Senator Olympia Snowe (R- Maine) has announced she will not seek re-election in 2012. &amp;nbsp;Her decision was bemoaned by Marjorie Clifton in the &lt;a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/marjorie-clifton/olympia-snowe_b_1318346.html"&gt;Huffington Post&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;as "tragedy in Washington". &amp;nbsp;Clifton called Snowe "the epitome of a good politician", citing as evidence that fact that Snowe was the only Republican senator to vote for Obamacare. &amp;nbsp;Let's review....Republicans are good politicians only when they agree with the secular-progressive agenda for a central government dominated America. &amp;nbsp;Got it.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;I found this headline on the website of the Belfast Telegraph this morning...."Buried Alive Challenger Dug Up Dead". &amp;nbsp;It seems that 24 year old Janaka Basnayake of Sri Lanka was attempting to set a world record for the longest time buried alive. &amp;nbsp;After spending about 6.5 hours buried in a 10 foot deep trench, Basnayake was dug up and taken to a hospital where he was dead on arrival. &amp;nbsp;Here's what I found most interesting. &amp;nbsp;The article states that "doctors were not immediately able to determine how he died". &amp;nbsp;Note to self....scratch Sri Lanka off the places to go when needing a medical condition diagnosed!&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Oh, those wacky school teachers! &amp;nbsp;New York public school teacher Melissa Dean recently had her 5th grade class write cards to her boyfriend John Coccarelli because she "thought it was a nice thing to do". &amp;nbsp;How sweet. &amp;nbsp;What she didn't mention to the students was Mr. Coccarelli is a guest of the New York penal system on a weapons possession beef, and was also charged in 2008 with possession of child pornography. &amp;nbsp;Makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside about the teaching profession, doesn't it?&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Finally, there's this.....&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;script

month ago, I asked in this space &lt;a href="http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/02/short-circuiting-chevy-volt.html"&gt;"isn't it time to pull the plug on the Volt?"&lt;/a&gt;. &amp;nbsp;Looks like the powers that be at Obama Motors have come to the same conclusion. &amp;nbsp;In a statement released by the government, er company, GM has announced it is halting production of the Dolt and "temporarily" laying off 1300 workers. &amp;nbsp;At this time, production is scheduled to resume on April 24. &amp;nbsp;A GM spokesman said "...we are still seeking to align our production with demand". &amp;nbsp;With production now at zero, I'd say it is perfectly aligned with demand. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By the way, this week Barack Obama said he was looking forward to buying and driving a Volt "after he is no longer President". &amp;nbsp;Well Dear Leader, I have good news and bad news for you. &amp;nbsp;The bad news is it looks like you will have to buy a used Volt. &amp;nbsp;The good news is it will only be about a year old. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally tonight, I leave you with this. &amp;nbsp;SACSTW researchers have infiltrated GM's research and development lab where government scientists are hard at work on the company's green version of its classic Corvette. While we at SACSTW headquarters have lost contact with our agents, they were able to smuggle out this photo of the vehicle in development before presumably being captured by Obama's minions. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto;

text-align: left;"&gt;Intrepid SACSTW reporters have AGAIN uncovered the truth in another story of supposed "atrocities" in Afghanistan. &amp;nbsp;This time, the calm, peaceful, tolerant people of Afghanistan have their burqas in a bunch over the light toasting of a couple of Korans by American forces.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;This is a simple cultural misunderstanding. &amp;nbsp;American forces are an outdoorsy bunch. &amp;nbsp;They like to relieve themselves outdoors: "&lt;a href="http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/01/usmc-yellow-rain-of-terror-conspiracy.html"&gt;USMC Yellow 'Rain' of Terror Conspiracy Exposed&lt;/a&gt;"&amp;nbsp;and they like to camp.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;This time they decided to have a hootenanny to foster good will with the&amp;nbsp;Afghani people&amp;nbsp;. &amp;nbsp;And what good hootenanny doesn't have a campfire? &amp;nbsp;They planned on singing &amp;nbsp;Islamic campfire favorites such as: &amp;nbsp;"She'll be Blowing up the Mountain When She Comes" and "Boom By Ya" and they decided to cook dinner over the campfire.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;They purchased halal&amp;nbsp;hot-dogs. &amp;nbsp;(100% beef, no pork, blessed by the local Imam)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;They even had smores! &amp;nbsp;The problem arose when the campfire wasn't hot enough to cook the hot-dogs. &amp;nbsp;A "Native American" soldier informed everyone that the hottest campfires were fueled by bull sh!t (BS). &amp;nbsp;Non-"Native American" soldiers misunderstood and understandably tossed a couple of Korans on the fire.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;Once the misunderstanding was resolved, the Korans were retrieved from the fire. Apparently the Afghanis, after sewing up the vagina of a 12 year old girl and beheading a couple of homosexuals, decided that this was a affront to their moral code. &amp;nbsp;The images below illustrate their measured and completely reasonable response:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left;

I propose Los Angeles as the capitol. &amp;nbsp;I mean really... if the Jews shouldn't mind sharing Jerusalem, Hollywood shouldn't mind sharing Los Angeles. &amp;nbsp;I will also be submitting an application for official refugee status for all Hispanic people living anywhere in the world who can prove (or at least pinkie-swear they are telling the truth) that some relative, at some time, in the past, lived in what is now known as the southern United States.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The United States will be encouraged/pressured/threatened/blackmailed into providing material, medical, and financial support. &amp;nbsp;Hispantinians will be allowed to work in the United States without interference from the US government. &amp;nbsp;Allowances will be made for any slight indiscretions made by the Hispantinian people such as rocket attacks, mortar attacks, or suicide bombers perpetrated against their former/current oppressors. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;SACSTW followers! &amp;nbsp;Join me in supporting the brand new nation of Hispanstine, kindred spirits to their brothers and sisters across the world in Palestine!&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please excuse me... *sob*.... just a little emotionally overwhelmed...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6269879682383107786-4493561428392014101?l=sahibandcrew.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/feeds/4493561428392014101/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/02/if-you-want-palestine-how-about.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/4493561428392014101'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/4493561428392014101'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/02/if-you-want-palestine-how-about.html' title='If You Want a Palestine, How About Hispanstine?'/><author><name>Sahib</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02710077740526033868</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-74Z_pE6fS8k/T0zjFceFZYI/AAAAAAAAANo/FEJu5sAvwgg/s72-c/hispanstine.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6269879682383107786.post-801607840379883594</id><published>2012-02-27T08:07:00.001-06:00</published><updated>2012-02-27T08:35:30.642-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='vasectomy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='ontario'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='canada'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='gun control'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='kanye west'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='academy awards'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='abortion'/><title type='text'>Monday Musings With The Crew</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

indicate that in 2010, the Kanye West Foundation spent $572,383, with exactly $0 going to any discernible charitable project. &amp;nbsp;They did do better in 2009, spending a total of $553,826 and a whopping $583 of that actually went to charity. &amp;nbsp;So, over its final 2 years of existence the Kanye West Foundation spent well over 1.1 million dollars, with less than $600 going to charity. &amp;nbsp;Reports filed by the foundation indicate that funds went towards salaries and "overhead expenses". &amp;nbsp; Hellooooo IRS.....don't those numbers kind of pique your interest? &amp;nbsp;Hey Kanye, Wesley Snipes just called. &amp;nbsp;He said you can have the top bunk.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;span style="text-align: left;"&gt;

learn more about it &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.rotary.org/en/AboutUs/TheRotaryFoundation/Pages/ridefault.aspx" style="text-align: left;"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;More news from the Save Our Sperm department....Georgia state legislator Yasmin Neal (D) has introduced a bill that would ban vasectomies in the state because "thousands of children are deprived of birth in this state every year because of the lack of state regulation over vasectomies". &amp;nbsp;Ms. Neal is of course trying to make a point here, comparing the lack of political uproar over vasectomies with the abortion issue. &amp;nbsp;While it is true that the "stop vasectomies now" crowd is somewhat ephemeral, it's really apples and oranges. Or rather, gametes and embryos. &amp;nbsp;A more accurate comparison would be vasectomy (men) and tubal ligation (women). &amp;nbsp;Besides, if we are going to ban vasectomy because it deprives children of birth, we are also going to have to get rid of Playboy magazine, Vaseline Intensive Care, and tube socks. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;After a particularly invigorating&amp;nbsp;evisceration of a liberal in the comment section of a news article, I was motivated to write this post. &amp;nbsp;The article was in today's Kansas City Star and was titled, "&lt;a href="http://www.kansascity.com/2012/02/23/3446523/local-families-tackle-food-stamp.html" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue;"&gt;Families Tackle Food Stamp Challenge. Eating on $4.50 a Day&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;". &amp;nbsp;My problem with the articled was that it was incredibly misleading as to the actual level of assistance received by food stamp recipients. &amp;nbsp;The actual amount is $4.50 per day per person. &amp;nbsp;For a family of six, that is $756.00 a month. &amp;nbsp;We don't spend half that monthly in my family and we do not qualify for free school lunches like all food stamp recipients would.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;After bashing him about the head and shoulders for a round or two of comments, I cut to the chase and asked him:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;HOW MUCH?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;How much of what I make should the government "allow" me to keep? &amp;nbsp;GIVE ME A NUMBER. &amp;nbsp;What percentage of what I earn should I be "allowed" to keep?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;He accused me of changing the topic, so I answered all his questions and asked mine again. &amp;nbsp;He responded with:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;"I don't know what I think you should be 'allowed to keep'. &amp;nbsp;I'm not an economist, but I do know for a fact that of all the money you pay in taxes most of it doesn't pay for food stamps."&lt;/blockquote&gt;And there you have it devoted readers, the typical non-answer I get from liberals every time I ask that question and I've asked it dozens of times. &amp;nbsp;The next specific number I get will be the first. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You might ask, "But why of why will they not answer your question Sahib? &amp;nbsp;You are so soft-spoken and kind!" &amp;nbsp;Here it is....

&amp;nbsp;Military authorities removed the books from the prison to prevent them from being used to advance a violent Islamist agenda. &amp;nbsp;Maybe they shouldn't have burned them, perhaps just chucking them in a dumpster would have been more appropriate. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Protesters outside the base are attacking it with rocks, slingshots, and middle fingers. &amp;nbsp;There has been some gunfire, but in the fine tradition of Muslim whackitrons everywhere, most of the shots have been fired mindlessly into the air. &amp;nbsp;The U.S. military has struck back at the protesters with rubber bullets and profuse apologies. &amp;nbsp;I would prefer maybe water cannon promptly followed by good old fashioned American lead. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-YY_EG_-AuZU/T0UK94WQRDI/AAAAAAAAALk/SYh33OnJo_s/s1600/afghanheadbite.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="200" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-YY_EG_-AuZU/T0UK94WQRDI/AAAAAAAAALk/SYh33OnJo_s/s200/afghanheadbite.jpg" width="146" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Not only are Afghans pelting our servicemen with rocks, I found this photo of one actually attempting to ingest an American woman......&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;All jokes aside, it's really just another sad chapter in Barack Obama's story of subjugating the United States to Muslim ideology at every turn. &amp;nbsp;What a disgrace this administration has become. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6269879682383107786-6450958792668991930?l=sahibandcrew.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/feeds/6450958792668991930/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/02/obama-apology-tour-gets-new-life-in.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/6450958792668991930'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/6450958792668991930'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/02/obama-apology-tour-gets-new-life-in.html' title='The Obama Apology Tour Gets New Life In Afghanistan'/><author><name>the Crew</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08105377009627447645</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='18' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ufvAxlZoldQ/TsQlpIMAglI/AAAAAAAAAEA/rJNHPdRiGso/s220/SACSTW%2Blogo.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-YY_EG_-AuZU/T0UK94WQRDI/AAAAAAAAALk/SYh33OnJo_s/s72-c/afghanheadbite.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6269879682383107786.post-7063711452695243446</id><published>2012-02-21T08:58:00.001-06:00</published><updated>2012-02-21T09:04:26.310-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='United Nations'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='USA'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Atomic bomb'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Middle-east'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Obama'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Iran'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='State Department'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Israel'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Russia'/><title type='text'>Is Obama an Idiot?

Hmmmmmmmmm?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Which can only leave us with one of two conclusions: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;The President and his&amp;nbsp;advisers&amp;nbsp;are idiots.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;They have some reason to help Iran stall an attack from Israel until they have a working atomic bomb.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;div&gt;Either of these possibilities scares the peewaden out of me. &amp;nbsp;Here's to hoping the following video is an analogy for what Israel is about to do to Iran. &amp;nbsp;The big kid (Israel) restrains himself for fear of getting in trouble with the teachers (US, Europe, Russia, et. al.). &amp;nbsp;The little a**hole kid (Iran) keeps picking on the big kid (Israel) "knowing" he won't fight back. &amp;nbsp;Enjoy viewing the results.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;embed allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" background="#333333" flashvars="si=254&amp;amp;&amp;amp;contentValue=50101792&amp;amp;shareUrl=http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2011/03/16/earlyshow/living/parenting/main20043808.shtml" height="279" salign="lt" scale="noscale" src="http://cnettv.cnet.com/av/video/cbsnews/atlantis2/cbsnews_player_embed.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;Hopefully the "cut the crap" wisdom of kids will trump the politically correct stupidity of adults.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6269879682383107786-7063711452695243446?l=sahibandcrew.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/feeds/7063711452695243446/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/02/is-obama-idiot-about-iran.html#comment-form' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/7063711452695243446'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/7063711452695243446'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/02/is-obama-idiot-about-iran.html' title='Is Obama an Idiot?

text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;That's right, ESPN's headline after the loss by the Knicks was "Chink in The Armor". &amp;nbsp;Very nice. &amp;nbsp;ESPN has fired the employee responsible for the headline, as well as suspending on-air commentator Max Bretos, who used the same phrase in a discussion of Lin. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Time to give credit where credit is due. &amp;nbsp;Supermodel Cindy Crawford has decided to end her 10 year old daughter's budding modeling career, saying "at this point she's too young to pursue a career...". &amp;nbsp;Kaia Crawford's Versace ad did generate some criticism, including in a &lt;a href="http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/01/monday-musings-with-crew_30.html"&gt;recent Monday Musings&lt;/a&gt;. &amp;nbsp;Not only are Cindy's parenting instincts on target, her political ones are as well. &amp;nbsp;After supporting Barack Obama in 2008, Crawford has gone on record as having switched party affiliations to the GOP and has endorsed Mitt Romney in the Republican primary. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Not to be outdone by Ms. Crawford.....Sir Paul McCartney revealed in a recent Rolling Stone interview that he has given up smoking pot at age 69 in order to be a better example for his 8 year old daughter. &amp;nbsp;McCartney is quoted as saying "&lt;i&gt;When you're bringing up a youngster, your sense of responsibility does kick in, if you're lucky, at some point&lt;/i&gt;" &amp;nbsp;Gee Paul, ya think? &amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Interesting political tidbit from Germany last week. &amp;nbsp;German President Christian Wulff resigned on Friday, after being embroiled in a series of scandals. &amp;nbsp;Included in those were charges that Wulff's frequent holidays were paid for by businessmen, that he had received favorable loans because of his position, and that he had criticized media outlets that were reporting on his actions. &amp;nbsp;Hmmm, does that sound familiar to anybody else? &amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Lavish vacations paid for by others.....check&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Favorable loan terms unavailable to others.....check&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Attacking media that criticizes his actions....check&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;

Jones, with a column at The Huffington Post titled..."Demonizing Obama and the Politics of Morality". &amp;nbsp;Read it &lt;a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/clarence-b-jones/obama-republicans_b_1279134.html?ref=politics"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; if you are done eating. &amp;nbsp;Obviously Clarence, the left would never stoop so low as to "demonize" a political opponent, right? &amp;nbsp;Uh, not so fast pea-soup breath!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Next is &lt;a href="http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2011/08/tea-with-maxine.html"&gt;SACSTW favorite Maxine Waters&lt;/a&gt;. &amp;nbsp;Speaking to California Democrats, the lovely, reasoned, and well balanced Rep.Waters (D-Ca) had this to say on the topic of Satan's minions....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;object class="BLOGGER-youtube-video" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0" data-thumbnail-src="http://3.gvt0.com/vi/zrn5TYSbFGM/0.jpg" height="266" width="320"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/zrn5TYSbFGM&amp;fs=1&amp;source=uds" /&gt;   &lt;param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF" /&gt;   &lt;embed width="320" height="266"  src="http://www.youtube.com/v/zrn5TYSbFGM&amp;fs=1&amp;source=uds" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Shockingly, no mention of a member of Congress referring to other members as "demons" made its way onto the websites of ABC news, CNN, MSNBC, or CBC. &amp;nbsp;The Huffington Post did obliquely mention the story, but only in a hit piece on Fox News anchor Eric Bolling, who advised Waters to "step away from the crack pipe". &amp;nbsp;Not only did the kind and gentle Rep. Waters call 2 GOP leaders "demons", she went on to characterize them as "legislators who are destroying this country rather than bringing us together". &amp;nbsp;There's an old saying about a pot and a kettle that would be appropriate here, but I don't dare use it as it also contains the word "black".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Actually, part of what Maxine spewed is correct.....this conservative doesn't want to "come together" with Mad Maxine.....short pause while the cold chill finishes traversing my spine...., I want Maxine and her gang of haters to go away, and never foul the stage of government again. &amp;nbsp;Conservatives need to be trying to defeat and vanquish, not compromise with people who want to "transform" America.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally there is this question.....how does a Republican presidential candidate know when the liberal establishment is worried about him? &amp;nbsp; Answer: &amp;nbsp;When the Huffington Post runs this photo as the lead on their Politics page......&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-0KwoEgXiqO0/Tz01qqmJKII/AAAAAAAAAK8/99K-zcC0PZo/s1600/HuffPo+Santorum+photo.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="202" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-0KwoEgXiqO0/Tz01qqmJKII/AAAAAAAAAK8/99K-zcC0PZo/s400/HuffPo+Santorum+photo.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;Creepy lighting....check&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;Gnarled claws for hands....check&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;Mouth open in mid-satanic chant....check&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;Name that kind of sounds like some religious thingy....check&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;Thank goodness the liberal establishment would never seek to demonize conservatives!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6269879682383107786-6091818745410714904?l=sahibandcrew.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/feeds/6091818745410714904/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/02/democrats-looking-to-exorcise-demons-of.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/6091818745410714904'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/6091818745410714904'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/02/democrats-looking-to-exorcise-demons-of.html' title='Democrats Looking to Exorcise The Demons of the GOP'/><author><name>the Crew</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08105377009627447645</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='18' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ufvAxlZoldQ/TsQlpIMAglI/AAAAAAAAAEA/rJNHPdRiGso/s220/SACSTW%2Blogo.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-0ZdkAW2L6bA/Tz04nKUncWI/AAAAAAAAALE/VBb3qk-yzBk/s72-c/exorcist+linda+blair.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6269879682383107786.post-8567167941557888213</id><published>2012-02-15T09:24:00.001-06:00</published><updated>2012-02-15T09:56:47.704-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='1984'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Ministry of Plenty'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Obama'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='George Orwell'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='School lunches'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Sam Kass'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Eric Holder'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dear Leader'/><title type='text'>Edict from the Sandwich Nazi:  Mandatory Lunch Inspections!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-urvdClHTLb4/TzvL4MxmptI/AAAAAAAAAMg/XO_eFPqfLyY/s1600/1984.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-urvdClHTLb4/TzvL4MxmptI/AAAAAAAAAMg/XO_eFPqfLyY/s1600/1984.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-large;"&gt;Ministry of Plenty&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Department of Healthy Food Initiatives&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;EDICT----EDICT----EDICT----EDICT&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Press release - MOPDOHFI - 15 February 2012&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;The Ministry of Plenty Department of Healthy Food Initiatives&lt;/b&gt; has decreed that all school lunches brought from home must be inspected for mandatory nutrition levels and to insure that no seditious notes from parents disparaging our Dear Leader Obama are included.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Reports of little girls bringing turkey and cheese sandwiches, bananas, chips, and fruit juice for lunch can no longer be tolerated. Food Czar Sam Kass (formerly titled Sandwich Nazi, but they ran into copyright issues with Seinfeld) states, "The government must ensure that every little girl is fed, by force if necessary, food we deem to be nutritious regardless of parental wishes. &amp;nbsp;It is crucial that every little girl grows up healthy so that she can make the correct decision later in life to abort unwanted children because it is not the government's role to tell women what they should do with their bodies."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lunches not meeting governmental standards will be discarded and will be replaced meals specially selected by Dear Leader Obama's wife. Only children whose parents are money-grubbing capitalist swine will be charged for these lunches.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Failure to comply with this edict will result in a compulsory invitation to one of Minister Holder's reeducation camps. &amp;nbsp;As it is written, so mote it be.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Reminder: &amp;nbsp;We have always been at war with Eastasia&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can view the article that prompted this edict &lt;a href="http://www.carolinajournal.com/exclusives/homemade-lunch-replaced-with-cafeteria-nuggets.html" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="red"&gt;here&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6269879682383107786-8567167941557888213?l=sahibandcrew.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/feeds/8567167941557888213/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/02/edict-from-sandwich-nazi-mandatory.html#comment-form' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/8567167941557888213'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/8567167941557888213'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/02/edict-from-sandwich-nazi-mandatory.html' title='Edict from the Sandwich Nazi:  Mandatory Lunch Inspections!'/><author><name>Sahib</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02710077740526033868</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-urvdClHTLb4/TzvL4MxmptI/AAAAAAAAAMg/XO_eFPqfLyY/s72-c/1984.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6269879682383107786.post-108779121173262346</id><published>2012-02-14T11:36:00.003-06:00</published><updated>2012-02-14T13:20:29.146-06:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Stanley and Dear Leader in happier times.............&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

As you know from my last letter, Mr. Teleprompter has really been letting me down lately. &amp;nbsp;So to help me remember the numbers, I had 999 tattooed on my wrist. &amp;nbsp;All I have to do is pull up my sleeve a little and sneak a peak when I need one.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;Well Karl, that brings us to today. &amp;nbsp;It was too cold to play golf so me and my buds went down to the DC CYO to shoot a little hoop. &amp;nbsp;(For some reason everyone down there was giving me dirty looks.) &amp;nbsp;After the game, the priest who runs the place wanted to have a few words with me. &amp;nbsp;Something about contraceptives blah, blah, blah, freedom of religion blah, blah, blah. &amp;nbsp;So he looks down at my wrist and starts freaking out. &amp;nbsp;Before the Secret Service agents can react, he pulls a bottle out of his pocket and throws some sort of liquid on me. I don't care what anyone says! &amp;nbsp;I did NOT writhe on the ground screaming 'It burns! It burns!" &amp;nbsp;I simply slipped on the 'holy' water (I don't believe the lab results, I think it was some kind of acid.) and twisted my ankle. &amp;nbsp;I was calmly telling everyone "It turned. &amp;nbsp;It turned."&amp;nbsp;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;Karl, why are the Catholics getting so worked up about everything? &amp;nbsp;Heck, you said religion is the opium of the people. &amp;nbsp;I thought they'd be so doped up that they wouldn't notice my little end-around the constitution. &amp;nbsp;Even Joe and the Notre Dame administration weren't with me on that one. &amp;nbsp;Don't they understand that I know what's best for them? &amp;nbsp;Ingrates...&amp;nbsp;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;I just feel so alone. &amp;nbsp;I know the republicans hate my guts, but Harry Reid won't even bring my new budget to a vote. All it takes is a simple majority to pass and the republicans can't filibuster it. &amp;nbsp;Besides, I worked really really hard on it. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;I guess I still have my friends at Media Matters. &amp;nbsp;I got the idea for our weekly strategy sessions from LBJ and McNamara during Viet Nam. &amp;nbsp;I can count on them to get my message out correctly to the major news outlets. &amp;nbsp;I've given up on Fox though, I don't think they'll ever come around. &amp;nbsp;Maybe I can get Murdoch deported...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'll always have you Karl, and of course Stanley*. &amp;nbsp;He should be around soon for our evening ride on the South Lawn. &amp;nbsp;I will be better. &amp;nbsp;I promise to try and maintain my composure even when Joe provokes me. &amp;nbsp;I can't believe he didn't think it was funny when I switched his Bible for the Koran before the prayer breakfast. &amp;nbsp;There's Stanley now. &amp;nbsp;Have to go.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;Your devoted friend,&lt;br /&gt;Barry"&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After reading Obama's latest letter, the Crew asked, "Check out the book! &amp;nbsp;Maybe it has more clues as to Cavernous Trachea's identity." &amp;nbsp;At this point I noticed the title, "Plagiarism for Dummies", hmmmmmmm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*Stanley is President Obama's pet unicorn.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6269879682383107786-3360520497526999084?l=sahibandcrew.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/feeds/3360520497526999084/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/02/cavernous-trachea-new-obama-letter-to.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/3360520497526999084'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/3360520497526999084'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/02/cavernous-trachea-new-obama-letter-to.html' title='Cavernous Trachea:  New Obama Letter to Karl Marx'/><author><name>Sahib</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02710077740526033868</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-hdF4j-ZfunE/TyHKCVZeZGI/AAAAAAAAALE/RSmKTfClxUM/s72-c/motivator17513b89eb310df08c728c98772a50ce674eea9c.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6269879682383107786.post-2893594876846676346</id><published>2012-02-14T07:39:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2012-02-14T07:39:28.442-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Def Leppard'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Social Security Reform'/><title type='text'>Breaking News:  Def Leppard Saves Social Security!</title><content type='html'>In the immortal words of Joe Elliott...."it's better to burn out, ...then fade away"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="text-align: left;"&gt;Oklahoma State Senate bill 1433 seeks to define human life as beginning at the moment of conception. Predictably, this has pro-abortion progressives all abuzz.. &amp;nbsp;An article by Jessica Pieklo at www.care2.com said this...."Like all other personhood measures, this one would afford that &lt;/span&gt;&lt;b style="text-align: left;"&gt;homeless cluster of cells&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="text-align: left;"&gt; full and equal rights under the law". &amp;nbsp;The Crew would humbly ask Ms. (i'm guessing) Pieklo exactly when that "homeless cluster of cells" becomes human life in her learned opinion. &amp;nbsp;The best part of this story is a proposed amendment to 1433. &amp;nbsp;Known as the "Every Sperm is Sacred" amendment, it reads "Any action in which a man ejaculates or otherwise deposits semen anywhere but in a women's vagina shall be construed as an action against an unborn child". &amp;nbsp;The amendment was proposed by pro-abortion Democratic State Senator Constance......(wait for it)........Johnson!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;Look people, I can not make this stuff up. &amp;nbsp;Fortunately, the Johnson amendment was prematurely withdrawn before further action was needed. &amp;nbsp;I'm sure all the voters of Oklahoma are so proud. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li style="text-align: left;"&gt;Of course the big news over the weekend was the death of Whitney Houston at 48 years of age. &amp;nbsp;A monumental talent, Houston's life was derailed by a long history of poor decisions. &amp;nbsp;Her death is an opportunity for parents to teach their children the consequences of bad decisions, and of surrounding yourself with those that make bad decisions. &amp;nbsp;Rather than dwell on the sordid circumstances surrounding Houston's demise, I'd rather just leave you with this memory of her finest moment.....&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Not in the sexy veto, state-of-the-union, commander-in-chief sort of way, but in the boring departmental and lower-court appointee way.&amp;nbsp;Obama must go! &amp;nbsp;If Mr. BoTingles Chris Matthews thinks the president has gone to far, then WOW!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/XYg1ywwLoX4?feature=player_embedded" width="580"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;H/T &lt;a href="http://laughingconservative.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Laughing Conservative&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6269879682383107786-1970501964436926912?l=sahibandcrew.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/feeds/1970501964436926912/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/02/young-wild-and-naked-deadly-threat.html#comment-form' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/1970501964436926912'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/1970501964436926912'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/02/young-wild-and-naked-deadly-threat.html' title='Young, Wild, and Naked: A Deadly Threat!'/><author><name>Sahib</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02710077740526033868</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-JL9QDZ8W13E/TzPwfV3VX8I/AAAAAAAAAL4/wrEweC5seuM/s72-c/axe.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6269879682383107786.post-7650206859523345131</id><published>2012-02-08T13:45:00.001-06:00</published><updated>2012-02-08T15:43:36.767-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Ruth Bader Ginsburg'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Ruth Buzzi'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='SCOTUS'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Obama'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dean Martin'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='U.S. constitution'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Matt Lauer'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dear Leader'/><title type='text'>Obama and Ginsburg: Founding Fathers?

Sayeth Obama....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;What's frustrated people is that I have not been able to FORCE &lt;/i&gt;(emphasis mine)&lt;i&gt; Congress to implement every aspect of what I said in 2008. &amp;nbsp;Well, you know, it turns out our Founders designed a system that makes it more difficult to bring about change than I would like sometimes.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;There is is folks, everything you need to know about Barack Hussein Obama, distilled down into 48 of his own despicable words. &amp;nbsp;Freedom loving Americans should be very thankful that the Founders designed the system that they did. &amp;nbsp;More than 200 years ago, they could foresee a tyrant want-to-be gaining the highest office in the land, and they knew what to do about that possibility. &amp;nbsp;Just more evidence of the true agenda of Barack Hussein Obama, and of the brilliant foresight of the men in that Philadelphia room during the summer of 1787.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;At least we can be comforted that the Supreme Court of the United States stands ready to "support and defend" our Constitution, as their oath of office requires. &amp;nbsp;Yeah, maybe not so much. &amp;nbsp;Justice Buzzi Ginsburg was interviewed on Egyptian TV recently. &amp;nbsp;The reporter asked her where Egypt's leaders should turn for guidance in crafting the structure and foundation of a new Egyptian government. &amp;nbsp;You might think this was a slam-dunk question for a SCOTUS justice, you would be wrong. &amp;nbsp;Sayeth Buzzi Ginsburg....&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;&lt;i&gt;I would not look to the U.S. Constitution if I were drafting a constitution in the year 2012. &amp;nbsp;I might look at the constitution of South Africa. &amp;nbsp;That was a deliberate attempt to have a fundamental instrument of government that embraced basic human rights, had an independent judiciary, it really is, I think, a great piece of work that was done.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;Now, doesn't that give you a warm, fuzzy feeling that Justice Ginsburg is using the U.S. Constitution as her guiding force when ruling from the bench of the highest court in the land? &amp;nbsp;Me neither. &amp;nbsp;Being the dutiful blogger I am, I read the constitution of South Africa, and encourage you to do the same &lt;a href="http://www.info.gov.za/documents/constitution/1996/a108-96.pdf"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color: red;"&gt;here&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. &amp;nbsp;It's a hoot! &amp;nbsp;Be forewarned, the document is a lengthy and verbose thesis on the theory and application of liberal statism. &amp;nbsp;I particularly liked its Bill of Rights, which outlines the cradle to grave governmental dependency that liberal whackjobs like Ruth Buzzi Ginsburg can really revel in. &amp;nbsp;It also every now and then sounds like it was written by an 9 year old girl. &amp;nbsp;For example, I give you section 9, subsections 3 through 5.....&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;(3) &amp;nbsp;The state may not unfairly discriminate directly or indirectly against anyone on one or more grounds, including race, gender, sex, pregnancy, marital status, ethnic or social origin, colour, sexual orientation, age, disability, religion, conscience, belief, culture, language and birth.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;(4) No person may unfairly discriminate directly or indirectly against anyone on one or more grounds in terms of subsection (3). &amp;nbsp;National legislation must be enacted to prevent or prohibit unfair discrimination.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;And now the punchline.....&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;(5) Discrimination on one or more of the grounds listed in subsection (3) is unfair unless it is established that the discrimination is fair.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That's just one example of the lunacy that Justice Ruth Buzzi Ginsburg sees as "a great piece of work" that is superior and more desirable than the United States Constitution. &amp;nbsp;As for Justice Ginsburg herself, she hasn't done a great piece of work since this.......&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;object class="BLOGGER-youtube-video" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0" data-thumbnail-src="http://0.gvt0.com/vi/m56mtrDTHPQ/0.jpg" height="266" width="320"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/m56mtrDTHPQ&amp;fs=1&amp;source=uds" /&gt;&lt;param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF" /&gt;&lt;embed width="320" height="266"  src="http://www.youtube.com/v/m56mtrDTHPQ&amp;fs=1&amp;source=uds" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Please join us on Facebook, and click the Conservativeblogs.net badge at the right to voice your opinion of SACSTW!&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6269879682383107786-7650206859523345131?l=sahibandcrew.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/feeds/7650206859523345131/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/02/obama-and-ginsburg-founding-fathers.html#comment-form' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/7650206859523345131'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/7650206859523345131'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/02/obama-and-ginsburg-founding-fathers.html' title='Obama and Ginsburg: Founding Fathers?

"Why lookie here uninformed voter, Dear Leader was willing to even go against his own Veep (who is supposed to be the national security expert in the administration) to bring down Osama" &amp;nbsp;"Such gallantry, such grit and courage, why we had to talk Barack out of leading the mission himself!" &amp;nbsp;Sorry Joe, SACSTW ain't buying it. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Want to know the difference between conservatives and liberal statists like Dear Leader? &amp;nbsp;Obama and his philosophical brethren define success by how many Americans are dependent on governmental largesse (OPM) for their daily lives. &amp;nbsp;Conservatives define success by how many no longer need such support. &amp;nbsp;Dear Leader likes to talk about how his policies have helped poor people stay afloat, and helped those in the middle class stay in the middle class. &amp;nbsp;He NEVER mentions helping poor people become......NOT POOR! &amp;nbsp;He NEVER mentions middle class Americans moving up the socio-economic scales. &amp;nbsp;He knows that government is not the tool that can get that done. &amp;nbsp;May I suggest a new slogan for the Democratic Party...."Keeping America's Poor In Their Place For 100 Years"&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Tom Coughlin has now won 2 Super Bowls in the last 4 seasons. &amp;nbsp;Think the Jacksonville Jaguars would like to have him back? &amp;nbsp;By the way, does anyone remember when Super Bowl commercials were funny and entertaining? &amp;nbsp;The state of affairs in the U.S. advertising industry is sad indeed.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Taking a page from the Elvis Grbac handbook.....Gisele issued this post-Super Bowl analysis of hubby Tom Brady's performance. &amp;nbsp;"My husband can not f***ing throw the ball and catch the ball at the same time." &amp;nbsp;For thinking that anyone cares what she says about football, Mrs. Brady gets my nomination for Hollywood HOs of the the week.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;It's been a few weeks since we all enjoyed a nice swimming goat video, so...............&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

GRANDDAUGHTER&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;OK, she is only his "step" granddaughter, but EWWWWWWW! &amp;nbsp;In general, I feel that the use of "EWWWWWWW!" is unmanly in the extreme, but nothing else quite suffices. &amp;nbsp;My first memories of Morgan are of him on the children's show The Electric Company in the 70's. &amp;nbsp;Considering&amp;nbsp;media reports that&amp;nbsp;he has married, intends to marry, or in the very least &amp;nbsp;is having a relationship with a woman 45 years his junior that began when she was 17, again I say EWWWWWWW!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My 12 year old son just walked by as I was writing this post and saw the picture of Morgan Freeman, but not the text. &amp;nbsp;He asked, "Is that Morgan Freeman?" &amp;nbsp;I said, "Yes." &amp;nbsp;He asked, "How old is he?" &amp;nbsp;I said, "74." &amp;nbsp;He asked, "Is he still doing stuff?" &amp;nbsp;I nodded and as he walked away I said softly, "Apparently."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;*Editor's note: &amp;nbsp;At times, we take some creative liberties in our stories. &amp;nbsp;The preceding paragraph is a 100% factual account of my conversation with my son.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-qXPeOeOvjU4/TytImkwEkXI/AAAAAAAAALM/-ukpky_BZ5s/s1600/morgan.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6269879682383107786-2157532436797408990?l=sahibandcrew.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/feeds/2157532436797408990/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/02/weekly-hollywood-hos-winner-morgan.html#comment-form' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/2157532436797408990'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/2157532436797408990'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/02/weekly-hollywood-hos-winner-morgan.html' title='Weekly Hollywood HOs Winner: Morgan Freeman'/><author><name>Sahib</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02710077740526033868</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-clUb1i9YuoU/Twcn8WzUGyI/AAAAAAAAAHw/PNAVoYkPqdk/s72-c/hos.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6269879682383107786.post-3430517625671003419</id><published>2012-02-02T13:06:00.002-06:00</published><updated>2012-02-02T13:15:38.503-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='coal plant'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fox and Friends'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Eric bolling'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='nuclear power'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='environmental activist'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Chevy Volt'/><title type='text'>Short-Circuiting The Chevy Volt</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-fqWg0PhRrQM/TyrZ_QlXteI/AAAAAAAAAJ0/UnHMLo2RRyQ/s1600/government_motors-300x3001.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="200" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-fqWg0PhRrQM/TyrZ_QlXteI/AAAAAAAAAJ0/UnHMLo2RRyQ/s200/government_motors-300x3001.jpg" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Look, I'm as much in favor of clean renewable energy sources as the next person (unless the next person is Ed Begley, Jr.). &amp;nbsp;As a matter of fact, I would love to see the United States produce its electricity from nuclear power, for Gaia's sake France gets almost all of her electricity that way! &amp;nbsp;But you greenbeans don't like that either. &amp;nbsp;No, you want us all to be toodling around town in a coal-fired abomination from Obama Motors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Isn't it time to pull the plug on the Chevy Volt? &amp;nbsp;Sales of the enviro-moonbat darling plummeted from 1529 in December of 2011 to 603 this past month. &amp;nbsp;&lt;b&gt;603!&lt;/b&gt; &amp;nbsp;Compare that to the Ford Focus (14,400 sold in January), Toyota Corolla (17,988 sold in January), and Honda Civic (21,883 sold in January). For crying out loud, the Kia Soul had sales of 8,093, and that is a vehicle whose national spokesman is a dancing hamster! That is the marketplace speaking loud and clear. &amp;nbsp;SACSTW has conducted a painstaking review of the Chevy Volt, and has discovered the real reason behind its poor sales figures. &amp;nbsp;It sucks. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eric Bolling of Fox News came to the same conclusion after recently driving a Volt. &amp;nbsp;He appeared on Fox and Friends this morning to talk about the experience. &amp;nbsp;Bolling has been critical of the Volt, and of Government Motors in general. &amp;nbsp;GM asked him to drive a Volt to experience the car firsthand. &amp;nbsp;According to Bolling, he got about 20-25 miles on a full charge before the car switched over to its gasoline powerplant. &amp;nbsp;GM claims a 40 mile range on full electric power. &amp;nbsp;The Volt gets about 35 mpg burning gas and sports a 9.3 gallon gas tank. &amp;nbsp;If we do the math, we can see that a Volt can travel about 350 miles on a full electric charge PLUS a full tank of gas (Premium by the way!). &amp;nbsp;That leaves us with an effective gas mileage of 37.6 mpg. &amp;nbsp;Not bad right? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's not too bad until you factor in the Volt's sticker price of $40-45,000. &amp;nbsp;Holy fossil fuel Batman, that is a big number! &amp;nbsp;Let's again compare to the other vehicles I listed above&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Toyota Corolla: &amp;nbsp;Gets approximately 30 mpg burning regular gasoline (7.5% cheaper than premium) and starts around a sticker of $18,000. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Ford Focus: &amp;nbsp;Gets around 31 mpg burning regular gasoline and starts at around $17,295&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Honda Civic: Gets around 32 mpg burning regular gasoline and starts at around $22,000.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div&gt;I can hear the greenbeans chirping now.... &lt;i&gt;"Crew, those 25 (or 40 if you believe GM) miles driven under full electric power are so much better for Mother Earth, Americans should be willing to pay any price to save our planet!" &lt;/i&gt;&amp;nbsp;SACSTW sent our investigative photographers out and they were able to capture this image of where &amp;nbsp;the Volt's electric power actually comes from.....&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

With cat-like reflexes we spun and drew down on a shadowy figure lingering behind a tree.&amp;nbsp; In an obviously digitally altered voice he/she said, “You have nothing to fear from me.&amp;nbsp; In fact, I have something that might interest you greatly.”&amp;nbsp; At this point, the figure tossed a bundle of what appeared to be papers at our feet.&amp;nbsp; “What’s that?”&amp;nbsp; The Crew Asked.&amp;nbsp; “Letters.&amp;nbsp; Letters from Obama to his hero” the figure replied.&amp;nbsp; “Who’s his hero?” I asked.&amp;nbsp; “Just read the letters.&amp;nbsp; They explain everything.”&amp;nbsp; As the figure disappeared in the fog I yelled after him/her, “Who are you?”&amp;nbsp; The figure replied, “Just call me… &lt;b&gt;Cavernous Trachea&lt;/b&gt;” and he/she was&amp;nbsp;gone.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;The Crew and I quickly repaired to the command center to read the letters.&amp;nbsp; This is the first one:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;“Dear Karl,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;I don’t know why I’m writing you.&amp;nbsp; This seems silly.&amp;nbsp; The doctors are totally over-reacting to my little ‘episode’.&amp;nbsp; I mean everybody needs to blow off steam once in a while right?&amp;nbsp; Running naked though the West Wing screaming, “Spiders!&amp;nbsp; Spiders are eating my brain!” was just my way of blowing off steam.&amp;nbsp; And I really wasn’t going to impale Joe Biden on that fireplace poker. &amp;nbsp;I was just messing with him.&amp;nbsp; Nobody can take a joke around here.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;So I guess writing you is supposed to be a more ‘reasonable’ way to deal with my frustrations.&amp;nbsp; They told me to write a letter to my biggest hero and most influential person in my life.&amp;nbsp; You were my first and only choice.&amp;nbsp; So Karl, help me out here.&amp;nbsp; Everyone’s against me.&amp;nbsp; Moochelle (she almost caught me calling her that) has been on a spending spree that would make Paris Hilton jealous, Reggie abandoned me, the republicans are catching on to my tricks, and I think my new Mao Zedong tat is infected.&amp;nbsp; I can’t put any weight on my left cheek at all.&amp;nbsp; Everyone around me is bummed too.&amp;nbsp; Even my best buddy, Mr. Teleprompter, is off his game.&amp;nbsp; Last week in my state of the union address, he just kept repeating the same exact lines from his… &amp;nbsp;I mean my old speeches.&amp;nbsp; And the worst thing… no one in my entire administration can think of a &amp;nbsp;single new euphemism for taxes.&amp;nbsp; We’ve used them all up.&amp;nbsp; Darn that vast right-wing conspiracy for trying to wake the chumps… I mean people, up.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;You know what Karl?&amp;nbsp; I think the doctors were right.&amp;nbsp; I do feel better!&amp;nbsp; I’m sure it has nothing to do with that shot they gave me about 20 minutes ago.&amp;nbsp; They told me it was just a B12 booster for energy.&amp;nbsp; Oh well, I better go. Stanley, my pet unicorn, just came into my bedroom.&amp;nbsp; It’s time for our ride on the South Lawn.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;I’ll write you again soon!&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;Your friend,&lt;br /&gt;Barry”&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;After reading the letter, The Crew and I went outside to where we had seen the shadowy figure to look for clues as to his/her identity.&amp;nbsp; The leaves and brush were disturbed where the figure&amp;nbsp;had been standing, but we saw nothing else.&amp;nbsp; As we were walking away, The Crew exclaimed, “Hey!&amp;nbsp; What’s that?”&amp;nbsp; He picked up what looked like piece of scrap paper.&amp;nbsp; On closer inspection we discovered it was a receipt:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 2.0in;"&gt;Agent Provocateur&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 2.0in;"&gt;133 Mercer St.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 2.0in;"&gt;New York, NY 10012&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 2.0in;"&gt;$47,356.78 &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 2.0in;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;Hmmmmm….&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;*Editor's note: &amp;nbsp;Another great idea brought to you by SACSTW creative consultant Brian Holyfield - @Holyfield67&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6269879682383107786-6230973564901767409?l=sahibandcrew.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/feeds/6230973564901767409/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/01/dear-karl-obama-letters-to-karl-marx.html#comment-form' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/6230973564901767409'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/6230973564901767409'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/01/dear-karl-obama-letters-to-karl-marx.html' title='Dear Karl: Obama Letters to Karl Marx'/><author><name>Sahib</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02710077740526033868</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-hdF4j-ZfunE/TyHKCVZeZGI/AAAAAAAAALE/RSmKTfClxUM/s72-c/motivator17513b89eb310df08c728c98772a50ce674eea9c.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6269879682383107786.post-7353133162854102980</id><published>2012-01-30T08:18:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2012-01-30T10:44:12.719-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='charlie weis'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cindy crawford'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Chaz Bono'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='kaia crawford'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='newt gingrich'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='miley cyrus'/><title type='text'>Monday Musings With The Crew</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-RXW8MtnyrFk/TyWHP5xkbOI/AAAAAAAAAJU/X0eMWUTCBBo/s1600/Monday+Moosings.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="200" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-RXW8MtnyrFk/TyWHP5xkbOI/AAAAAAAAAJU/X0eMWUTCBBo/s200/Monday+Moosings.jpg" width="175" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Why did the University of Kansas hire the transgender child of Sonny and Cher to coach their football team?

I guess they are still stuck in the ‘80s.&amp;nbsp; While some have argued that the ‘80s was the worst decade ever for music and fashion,&amp;nbsp;there is no doubt that itwas the funniest decade for movies, ever!&amp;nbsp;There is one outlier year* but I will get to that later.&amp;nbsp; I know lists like this are very subjectiveand open to significant debate, but let’s take a look at the ‘80s together:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;Airplane, Caddyshack, A Christmas Story, Vacation, The BluesBrothers, Trading Places, 48 Hours, Beverly Hills Cop, Coming to America,Ghostbusters, Back to the Future, Planes, Trains and Automobiles, Stripes, Ferris Bueller’s DayOff, History of the World: Part I, Spaceballs, Major League, Fast Times atRidgemont High, The Naked Gun, Arthur, This is Spinal Tap, The Princess Bride, andRevenge of the Nerds&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;How can you argue with that list?&amp;nbsp; What happened to these guys?&amp;nbsp; Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Eddie Murphy, SteveMartin, Billy Crystal, Chevy Chase…&amp;nbsp; Iknow these guys are getting a little long in the tooth, but did they forget howto be funny?&amp;nbsp; When was the last time oneof these guys did anything that even evoked a mild chuckle?&amp;nbsp; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;This is not to say that there haven’t been any funny moviesmade in the last 22 years, but true comedic classics are few and farbetween.&amp;nbsp; The ones that spring to mindare:&amp;nbsp; The Big Lebowski, There’s SomethingAbout Mary, Happy Gilmore, Anchorman, Wedding Crashers and Dodgeball.&amp;nbsp; But what have Adam Sandler, Bill Stiller,Vince Vaughn, or Will Ferrell done recently that really made you laugh?&amp;nbsp; For any of you who say yes, I present to youJack and Jill, The Little Fockers, The Dilema, and The Land of the Lost andsay, REALLY?&amp;nbsp; Bridesmaids and TheHangover were funny, but I wouldn’t call them classics.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;With the world ending this year, have we just run out offunny?&amp;nbsp; When our Dear Leader, Joe Biden,Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid make me laugh harderthan anyone in Hollywood, it is a sad state of affairs.&amp;nbsp; Come on Mel… John… Ivan…, don’t you guys havejust a few more in you? Please?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;i&gt;*The outlier year is 1974 which gave us Holy Grail, BlazingSaddles, and Young Frankenstein.&amp;nbsp; Leaveit to a few brits and a little Jewish guy to make three of my top five all-timefavorite comedies in one year.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6269879682383107786-721672147095956987?l=sahibandcrew.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/feeds/721672147095956987/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/01/funniest-movie-decade-ever-80s-where.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/721672147095956987'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/721672147095956987'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/01/funniest-movie-decade-ever-80s-where.html' title='Funniest Movie Decade Ever-The &apos;80&apos;s:  Where have all the funnymen gone?'/><author><name>Sahib</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02710077740526033868</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-QFpOnplKuzc/TyA1UfGQjyI/AAAAAAAAAKk/LvsRRmYOTMc/s72-c/The-80s-the-80s-473180_1024_819.gif' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6269879682383107786.post-6819090221071958759</id><published>2012-01-24T07:19:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2012-01-24T07:19:00.872-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Ryan Budget'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='U.S. Senate'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Harry Reid'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='1000 days'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Obama'/><title type='text'>1000 Days of Disgrace- The Harry Reid Senate</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-XerxyzZIYCA/Tx1rw6jfZAI/AAAAAAAAAJI/gwK7ug1ca_A/s1600/1000+Days.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="123" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-XerxyzZIYCA/Tx1rw6jfZAI/AAAAAAAAAJI/gwK7ug1ca_A/s200/1000+Days.jpg" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;April 29, 2009 was 1000 days ago. &amp;nbsp;It was also the last time the U.S. Senate passed a budget. &amp;nbsp;Under Democrat Harry Reid's (D-NV) leadership, the Senate has abdicated one of its primary responsibilities. &amp;nbsp;What could be more important in these turbulent times than formulating, debating, and ultimately passing a budget for the national government? &amp;nbsp;Of all the outrageous inadequacies of Reid's term as Majority Leader, this is the most egregious. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;On May 24, 2011, the Democrat-controlled Senate voted down 4 different budget proposals, one each from Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wisc), Rep. Pat Toomey (R-Pa), Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky), and oh yeah, former Senator Barack Obama (D-Il). &amp;nbsp;Dear Leader's budget proposal was narrowly defeated, 97-0. &amp;nbsp;Surely with all this nay-saying, the Reid Senate has a plan of its own to guide the United States out of the current fiscal abyss. &amp;nbsp;You'd think so wouldn't you? &amp;nbsp;You'd be wrong. &amp;nbsp;Reid and his merry band of Democrat slackers are more concerned with the political ramifications of the budgeting process than they are the effects of their rampant spending on the U.S. taxpayer. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;Maybe 1000 days isn't enough time for the Senate to formulate and present its own budget plan. &amp;nbsp;Just how long of a time is 1000 days? &amp;nbsp;Well, 1000 days is.....&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;long enough for McDonalds to sell 9 billion lbs of french fries&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;long enough for the Washington Nationals to lose 202 baseball games&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;longer than the COMBINED marriages of :&lt;/li&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Drew Barrymore and Tom Green&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Jennifer Lopez and Chris Judd&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Mario Lopez and Ali Landry&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Britney Spears and Jason Alexander (no, not the Seinfeld guy)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Renee Zellweger and Kenny Chesney&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Nicholas Cage and Lisa Marie Presley&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Pamela Anderson and Kid Rock&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Michelle Phillips and Dennis Hopper&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Carmen Electra and Dennis Rodman&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Kim Khardashian and Kris Humphries&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;and most importantly, long enough for the United States Government to spend 9.7 trillion dollars of Other People's Money. (that is $1,077 for every pound of french fries sold by McDonalds worldwide!)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div&gt;I'd say it's time for the Reid Senate to get off its collective keister, and get back to the business of the people.

text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;object class="BLOGGER-youtube-video" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0" data-thumbnail-src="http://0.gvt0.com/vi/OxxkI7wY5XA/0.jpg" height="266" width="320"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/OxxkI7wY5XA&amp;fs=1&amp;source=uds" /&gt; &lt;param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF" /&gt; &lt;embed width="320" height="266"  src="http://www.youtube.com/v/OxxkI7wY5XA&amp;fs=1&amp;source=uds" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;So, the chairman of the state Democratic Party of South Carolina isn't worried about offending vertically challenged voters because &amp;nbsp;"I don't think they can reach the machine....". &amp;nbsp;You know, the sensitivity and compassion of the left is striking. &amp;nbsp;But I digress.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On Monday, Harpootlian made it clear that he thought by holding a debate on MLK day, the GOP was ignoring Dr. King's birthday, and showing its racism and disregard for the black voters in South Carolina. &amp;nbsp;Officer O'Reilly asked (rather gently I might add) Moby Dick if he knew what happened on MLK day in 2008. &amp;nbsp;After much stammering and&amp;nbsp;dodging, Harpootlian grudgingly admitted that the Democratic Party held a Presidential debate on MLK day in 2008, sponsored by the Congressional Black Caucus. &amp;nbsp;So, to review,&lt;br /&gt;Democrats debating on MLK day GOOD, Republicans debating on MLK day RACIST and OFFENSIVE. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I have mentioned &lt;a href="http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2011/10/earth-to-mitt-romney-its-our-money.html"&gt;before&lt;/a&gt; (referring to Mitt Romney in fact), the best way to evaulate these talking heads is to look for those little moments when they drop their guard (although I'm not sure Harpootlian has one) and say something that illuminates the dark recesses of their core philosophy. &amp;nbsp;Harpootlian did just that when his conversation with O'Reilly turned to the presidential election of 1860. &amp;nbsp;Incredibly, Moby Dick said that GOP candidates Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich were injecting race into the 2012 election by referring to it as "the most important election since 1860". &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What happened in the presidential election of 1860? &amp;nbsp;Americans elected a Republican President who guided the nation through its most turbulent years, preserved the United States for future generations, and oh yeah, freed millions of blacks from the chains of slavery. &amp;nbsp;Those are plain, simple facts that can not be disputed by anyone. &amp;nbsp;Harpootlian's comment on the election of 1860...."We in the South have a little different version of what happened in 1860". &amp;nbsp;Wow, even for the jaded and cynical Crew it was hard to believe he admitted that.&lt;br /&gt;Behind those words lurks the dark and twisted soul of the Democrat Party.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm guessing that the South Carolina Democratic Party Chairman's "version" of what happened in 1860 goes something like this:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;That damn cracker Lincoln came in and stole the election away from mah man John Breckinridge! &amp;nbsp;Then he told us God-fearin Southerners that we couldn't keep those blacks (probably not the word he was thinking) in our fields anymore, and we ended up having to pick our own damn cotton!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is the video from the O'Reilly factor- see for yourself what the Democrat Party of South Carolina thinks:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;script src="http://video.foxnews.com/v/embed.js?id=1395691174001&amp;amp;w=466&amp;amp;h=263" type="text/javascript"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;noscript&gt;Watch the latest video at &amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;a href="http://video.foxnews.com"&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;video.foxnews.com&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;/a&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;&lt;/noscript&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6269879682383107786-4616525118711333751?l=sahibandcrew.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/feeds/4616525118711333751/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/01/oreilly-harpoons-moby-dick-harpootlian.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/4616525118711333751'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/4616525118711333751'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/01/oreilly-harpoons-moby-dick-harpootlian.html' title='O&apos;Reilly Harpoons &quot;Moby&quot;

Col. West, take a little time today to research him. &amp;nbsp;West sent an email to the Weekly Standard that read in part:&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;&lt;i&gt;“The Marines were wrong. Give them a maximum punishment under field grade level Article 15 (non-judicial punishment), place a General Officer level letter of reprimand in their personnel file, and have them in full dress uniform stand before their Battalion, each personally apologize to God, Country, and Corps videotaped and conclude by singing the full US Marine Corps Hymn without a teleprompter.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;“As for everyone else, unless you have been shot at by the Taliban, shut your mouth, war is hell.”&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;Read the rest of the email &lt;a href="http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/allen-west-marines-incident-shut-your-mouth-war-hell_616699.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;A dozen students at a Portland area high school were injured on Friday during a science class experiment that went awry. &amp;nbsp;The accidental combination of water and volatile metal produced a small explosion and an irritating gas. &amp;nbsp;The students were transported to area hospitals and treated for respiratory problems. &amp;nbsp;All are expected to fully recover. &amp;nbsp;I mention this only because it brings back fond memories of Sahib and Crew toiling away for many hours in biology class. &amp;nbsp;After weeks of hard work and sacrifice, Sahib and I completed our magnum opus...."The Phenomenon of Spontaneous Generation in &lt;i&gt;Drosophila melanogaster&lt;/i&gt;". &amp;nbsp;Truly some of our finest work.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Finally, since no Monday Musings is really complete without a video of a swimming goat, here ya go:&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;A shaken and wobbly Obama retreated to his corner after a beatdown from the US Constitution in Round One. &amp;nbsp;With cutman Bill Ayers and manager Jeremiah Wright exhorting him to continue, Obama answered the bell for Round Two on January 4th by appointing 3 new members to the National Labor Relations Board and Richard Cordray to be the director of the new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. &amp;nbsp;Normally such appointments require Senate consent, but Obama sidestepped that little detail by labeling the moves "recess" appointments.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; Appointment of senior Federal officials requires the advise and consent of the U.S. Senate. &amp;nbsp;Article 2, Section 2 of the Constitution allows the President to apppoint such officials without consent during times the Senate is in recess.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;3: &amp;nbsp;The President shall have Power to fill up all Vacancies that may happen during the Recess of the Senate, by granting Commissions which shall expire at the End of their next Session.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;Such recess appointments have been used by Presidents of every party since Washington, so hey, what's the big deal right? &amp;nbsp;Really, it isn't a big deal to the Crew, except as an example of the rampant hypocrisy of the left (that means you Bill). &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;Here's the rub... When Dear Leader made his recess appointments on January 4th, the Senate had only been in "recess" for 2 days, not the 3 required by law. In addition, Senate Republicans have been meeting in what is called "pro forma" sessions, meaning the Senate is technically not in recess at all. &amp;nbsp;Lefties are crying foul, saying Republicans are using political tricks and technicalities to deny Obama the power to make recess appointments. &amp;nbsp;They are right, that is exactly what Senate Republicans are doing. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;If you are starting to feel a weird sense of deja vu, don't fret. &amp;nbsp;Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid used exactly the same tactics to prevent President George W. Bush from making recess appointments. &amp;nbsp;The difference is that President Bush had enough respect for the Constitution to not ignore the "technicalities" of the Senate rules. &amp;nbsp;Barack Hussein Obama has no such respect, and has demanded his recess appointments go through.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;Looks like Obama has won on points in Round 2, knotting the bout at one round each. &amp;nbsp;The big showdown comes in Round 3 scheduled for late March. &amp;nbsp;That's when the Supreme Court will take up the issue of Obamacare's constitutionality. &amp;nbsp;In my humble opinion, the individual mandate is CLEARLY unconstitutional. &amp;nbsp;SCOTUS should stand tall, strike down Obamacare, and continue the championship reign of the U.S. Constitution.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6269879682383107786-2104658917572916362?l=sahibandcrew.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/feeds/2104658917572916362/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/01/obama-vs-us-constitution-round-2.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/2104658917572916362'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/2104658917572916362'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/01/obama-vs-us-constitution-round-2.html' title='Obama vs the U.S. Constitution- Round 2'/><author><name>the Crew</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08105377009627447645</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='18' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ufvAxlZoldQ/TsQlpIMAglI/AAAAAAAAAEA/rJNHPdRiGso/s220/SACSTW%2Blogo.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-QzoVw_hMc0Y/TxI3EyCOo-I/AAAAAAAAAIg/qYScw2wrg8o/s72-c/ring+card+girl+round+2.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6269879682383107786.post-5722103895857410538</id><published>2012-01-14T08:08:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2012-01-14T08:08:15.416-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Obama'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='ADA'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='eeoc'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='U.S. constitution'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Supreme Court'/><title type='text'>Obama vs the U.S. Constitution-Let's Get Ready to Rumble!</title><content type='html'>(in the Crew's best Michael Buffer impersonation)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ladies and Gentlemen......

text-align: left;"&gt;Obama threw a flurry of jabs in Round One, using the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and a lawsuit by Cheryl Perich claiming the Hosanna-Tabor Evangelical Lutheran Church and School in Michigan violated the Americans with Disabilities Act by firing her. &amp;nbsp;Perich, a "called teacher" and commissioned minister within the church, taught secular and religious classes, as well as leading chapel service. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;Perich took a disability leave in 2004, after being diagnosed with ........narcolepsy. &amp;nbsp;The church refused to hire her back after her leave, and in the fine tradition of liberal pantywaists everywhere, she sued. &amp;nbsp;The case went all the way to the Supreme Court, where our champion knocked Obama to the canvas with a unanimous SCOTUS ruling in favor of the church. &amp;nbsp;Confirming that churches have the right to a "ministerial exception" to anti-discrimination laws, Chief Justice Roberts said this:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;The interest of society in the enforcement of employment discrimination statues is undoubtedly important, but so too is the interest of religious groups in choosing who will preach their beliefs, teach their faith, and carry out their mission.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Do fantastically talented people become narcissists as a result of people constantly fawning all over them or do narcissists succeed because they really believe they are the center of the universe? &amp;nbsp;And if all the Hollywood celebs are the center of the universe, shouldn't they be multiverses? &amp;nbsp;It's enough to make Stephen Hawking's brain to explode.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Who would have thought that Gwyneth Paltrow's daughter Apple would have the "normal" name. &amp;nbsp;I can give Moxie Crimefighter's dad Penn Jillette somewhat of a pass because I think he was crazy to begin with, but why do these idiots do this to the people they are supposed to "love"? &amp;nbsp;Their kids are going to have a hard enough time growing up somewhat normal in the abnormal celebrity world. &amp;nbsp;Why make it even harder for them?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can answer my own question. &amp;nbsp;It's because celebrities don't think it matters. &amp;nbsp;Being creative and nuanced is what counts. &amp;nbsp;They are the center of their own multiverse. &amp;nbsp;The rest of the world will adjust to their wills and desires. &amp;nbsp;When the jacked up name of their kids is just one more straw on camel's back it's OK right? &amp;nbsp;They've got money. &amp;nbsp;That's all that matters right?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, it doesn't always turn out badly for the oddly named children of celebrities. &amp;nbsp;The first one I can remember is Chastity Bono. &amp;nbsp;(Come on! &amp;nbsp;Cher naming a kid Chastity is like Courtney Love naming her kid Sobriety.) &amp;nbsp;We all know what a healthy, happy, well-adjusted woman she grew up to be. &amp;nbsp;Though if I remember correctly, I think she did change her name....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;*For the record, Sahib's boys' names are simple correctly spelled names. &amp;nbsp;No hyphens, no symbols, &amp;nbsp;no silent Ps. Of course the Crew's boys are named Habakkuk and Splat, but that's OK. &amp;nbsp;He IS the center of the universe.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6269879682383107786-5918592287511455570?l=sahibandcrew.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/feeds/5918592287511455570/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/01/hollywood-hos-weekly-winners-beyonce.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/5918592287511455570'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/5918592287511455570'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/01/hollywood-hos-weekly-winners-beyonce.html' title='Hollywood HOs Weekly Winners: Beyonce and Jay Z'/><author><name>Sahib</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02710077740526033868</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-QO_vcaM3J3s/TxBMBNItIVI/AAAAAAAAAIQ/htBMYlIQxwU/s72-c/hos.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6269879682383107786.post-2915827662302111006</id><published>2012-01-12T11:29:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2012-01-12T11:29:24.065-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Nancy Pelosi'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Chuck Woolery'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='George Clooney'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Obama'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='America'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Class warfare'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Competitive mediocrity'/><title type='text'>Chuck Woolery:  Stop Competitive Mediocrity!</title><content type='html'>Great American Chuck Woolery, "Dump competitive mediocrity like George Clooney dumps hot Italian models!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/eLUASI8baDw?rel=0" width="520"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Too soft on politicians that use class-warfare to divide us!"

&amp;nbsp;Since when have you been in a wheelchair?&lt;br /&gt;CM: &amp;nbsp;**Sob** It happened on election night. &amp;nbsp;When the early election returns looked favorable for you, my legs were tingling and jumping around like Charlie Sheen on a three day meth bender. &amp;nbsp;But when you gave your concession speech 15 minutes later, they went completely numb. &amp;nbsp;I haven’t had feeling in them since. &amp;nbsp;But enough about me… How are you getting along now that you are out of office?&lt;br /&gt;BO: &amp;nbsp;……………………&lt;br /&gt;CM: &amp;nbsp;Mr. President?&lt;br /&gt;BO: &amp;nbsp;Sorry Chris. &amp;nbsp;Since when have you been in a wheelchair?&lt;br /&gt;CM: &amp;nbsp;Don’t worry about my troubles Mr. President. &amp;nbsp;How are YOU doing?&lt;br /&gt;BO: &amp;nbsp;Well Chris, to be honest… not so hot. &amp;nbsp;The girls aren’t speaking to me, I’ve had to eat that crap the Michelle tried to force on school kids, and Reggie won’t return my calls. &amp;nbsp;I think he’s found someone new. &amp;nbsp;And you know the worst part Chris?&lt;br /&gt;CM: &amp;nbsp;What’s that Mr. President?&lt;br /&gt;BO: &amp;nbsp;I’ve only been able to play about 15 rounds of golf!&lt;br /&gt;CM: &amp;nbsp;But Mr. President, you’ve only been out of office 11 days…&lt;br /&gt;BO: &amp;nbsp;Yes, but they’ve all been rounds on **sob**, local courses!&lt;br /&gt;CM: &amp;nbsp;The horror!&lt;br /&gt;BO: &amp;nbsp;Warren and George have been making fun of me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;*editor’s note: &amp;nbsp;Warren Buffett and George Soros&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CM: So how do you think the new president will fare?&lt;br /&gt;BO: &amp;nbsp;How will he fare?!?!

&amp;nbsp;The law of unintended liberal consequences strikes again. &amp;nbsp;Apparently, the killing of protected birds is okie dokie as long as it is in the pursuit of "green" energy. &amp;nbsp;Seems like red splattered energy to me. &amp;nbsp;Why haven't we seen Greenpeace protesters strapping themselves to turbine blades? &amp;nbsp;Oh, that's right! &amp;nbsp;Wind-power is one of the darlings of the left. &amp;nbsp;According to the People's Republic of California officials, one (that's uno for you bi-lingual education proponents) state-approved wind farm kills 4,700 birds yearly. &amp;nbsp;This includes 1,300 raptors of which approximately 70 are golden eagles.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But wait! &amp;nbsp;There's more! &amp;nbsp;According to a &lt;a href="http://usnews.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2012/01/04/9952873-feds-propose-allowing-wind-farm-developer-to-kill-golden-eagles#comments" target="_blank"&gt;MSNBC article&lt;/a&gt;, the federal government is proposing a "first of its kind" permit to allow wind farm developers to legally kill golden eagles. &amp;nbsp;The screaming from lefty-bunny-huggers must be&amp;nbsp;deafening. &amp;nbsp;Hmmmm, maybe I need to turn up my hearing-aid. &amp;nbsp;All I hear is crickets.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know, devoted readers, that I should no longer be surprised by the hypocrisy of the left. &amp;nbsp;Anything is permissible to them as long as it forwards their agendas. &amp;nbsp;I just wonder about the outrage we would be experiencing if say, a nuclear reactor was zapping these regal creatures from the sky. &amp;nbsp;Aging actresses and Disney tween-queens would be hanging on the fences sobbing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Far be it for your humble author to get all weepy about environmental issues. &amp;nbsp;I am a card-carrying member of PETA (People for the Eating of Tasty Animals) and have one apron that says "Kill It and Grill It" and another that says "Choke It and Smoke It". &amp;nbsp;I am for exploring all energy options that can make us less dependent on oil controlled by South American dictators and the mad mullahs of the gulf. &amp;nbsp;However; don't get all preachy with me about "saving Mother Nature" and conveniently ignore the environmental impact of your "green" initiatives.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh well, I guess I'll just pull on my baby-seal-skin boots and head out to the local&amp;nbsp;reservoir to catch me a mess of fish for a nice snail-darter sandwich. &amp;nbsp;This time of year the bald eagles are thick out there. &amp;nbsp;I promise that I won't tell them their cousins are being julienned out on the left-coast so Californians can feel good about being "green".&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6269879682383107786-7937138601779577247?l=sahibandcrew.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/feeds/7937138601779577247/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/01/make-mine-eagle-salad-sandwich.html#comment-form' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/7937138601779577247'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/7937138601779577247'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2012/01/make-mine-eagle-salad-sandwich.html' title='Make Mine an Eagle Salad Sandwich!'/><author><name>Sahib</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02710077740526033868</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0JMc_aCXCkE/TwUgqXtbDFI/AAAAAAAAAHc/XyPybbjQh-U/s72-c/eagle.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6269879682383107786.post-7298856157803395882</id><published>2012-01-04T07:45:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2012-01-04T12:21:10.333-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='NYPD'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Moonbat'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MLK'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Civil Rights'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Mandela'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Gandhi'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Ellen Barkin'/><title type='text'>King, Mandela, Gandhi, and Barkin</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ID1ZSOTOFWU/TwRgaheE7kI/AAAAAAAAAHQ/Ij1wIp_ifNE/s1600/motivatorbbe6afa1e3c5de7a591b711dde202196f32b5d73.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ID1ZSOTOFWU/TwRgaheE7kI/AAAAAAAAAHQ/Ij1wIp_ifNE/s400/motivatorbbe6afa1e3c5de7a591b711dde202196f32b5d73.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Add another name to the pantheon of civil rights leaders! &amp;nbsp;Martin, Nelson, Mahatma, move over, there is a new civil rights sheriff in town and she isn't taking any crap! &amp;nbsp;Yes dear readers, Ms. Ellen Moonbat Barkin now exists in the&amp;nbsp;rarefied&amp;nbsp;heights of civil rights greats of the past. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Drudging up memories of&amp;nbsp;Tiananmen&amp;nbsp;Square, Kent State, and Selma, Ms. Barkin and her 26 year old grandson.... errrr... boyfriend were horribly accosted New Years morning by the nefarious and vermicious NYPD. &amp;nbsp;She was attempting to "help" a young woman who was in the process of being arrested by said nefarious and vermicious NYPD officers. &amp;nbsp;Of course, Ms. Barkin is completely qualified to evaluate the validity of the arrest due to her role as an attorney with the district attorney's task-force on police corruption in the movie, "The Big Easy". &amp;nbsp;In the process of offering her assistance to the young woman, Ms. Barkin was brutally "shoved with both hands" and "threatened" by a maniacal officer of the NYPD. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fortunately, Ms. Barkin's grandson... errr... boyfriend caught all this on video which he so thoughtfully posted online. &amp;nbsp;&lt;b&gt;PLEASE BE ADVISED&lt;/b&gt;.... You are about to witness violence of so graphic a nature that it is almost certain to emotionally scar anyone who watches. &amp;nbsp;Please do not let the elderly, children, or those with heart conditions watch!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/qjgbNWKj1SY?rel=0" width="520"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please give me a second to compose myself... Thanks, all better now. &amp;nbsp;The last time I saw such violently aggressive behavior was the last time I saw a boy scout escort a little old lady across the street. &amp;nbsp;Oh the humanity! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, Ms. Barkin handled the encounter with her usual elegance, grace, and decorum... She can be heard on the video counselling the wayward young office&lt;span style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;r,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"&gt;

&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;She&amp;nbsp;later followed this up on Twitter with an even more gracious, "F--k all of u, Bloomberg, &amp;amp;

&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;38%&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div&gt;The insane part of this nugget is that 5% of Americans actually approve of Congress. &amp;nbsp;If you know one of these people, do not approach them. &amp;nbsp;Contact the authorities immediately.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;The average American family spent a record $4150 on gasoline in 2011. &amp;nbsp;I actually heard a lib talking head say that means the economy is improving! &amp;nbsp;Uh, no.....demand for gasoline actually pulled back during 2011, the record spending was due to the high energy prices supported by the Obama administration. &amp;nbsp;On the day Dear Leader was inaugurated, gasoline was $1.67 at my neighborhood gas station. &amp;nbsp;Along that vein, Iran is making noises about blocking the Strait of Hormuz, thereby choking off a major source of Middle Eastern crude for the West. &amp;nbsp;Hey Barry....can we actually start developing our own resources NOW? &amp;nbsp;Start drilling, approve the Keystone pipeline, and let's get this country on her own two feet.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Rest easy SACSTW fans, you can continue to read your favorite blog by the blinding light of a 100W incandescent bulb for a few more months (at least in the U.S). &amp;nbsp;January 1, 2012 was supposed to be the end of the 100W bulb, but Congressional action in December pushed that back to at least October. &amp;nbsp;If you have already made the switch to compact fluorescent lamp (CFL) bulbs, you surely have the local HAZMAT team number on speed dial just in case you break one of them right? &amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/div&gt;And now on to the ridiculous.....January 1, 2012 saw the implementation of over 40,000 new laws and regulations in the United States. &amp;nbsp;Seriously, after over 200 years of existence we still need 40,000 new laws every year? &amp;nbsp;Some of the more interesting new laws on the book&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Schools in California are now required to teach students about the contributions made to America by gays, lesbians, bisexuals, and transgender people. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Utah has banned daily drink specials in bars....the end of "happy hour" as we know it. &amp;nbsp;Coming from one who enjoyed "Monday Four-fers" as a young college student, this makes me sad&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Georgia now requires golf carts that are driven off the course to be equipped with brakes, reverse warning signal, tail lights, hip restraints, and a horn. &amp;nbsp;Come to think of it, maybe this one is OK....&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

He said he thought some critics — like Senator Lindsey Graham, a South Carolina Republican who favors allowing the military to handle terrorism suspects over the criminal justice system — are expressing “good faith” arguments about their policy disagreements.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', times, serif; line-height: 1.467em; margin-bottom: 1em; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;But Mr. Holder contended that many of his other critics — not only elected Republicans but also a broader universe of conservative commentators and bloggers — were instead playing “Washington gotcha” games, portraying them as frequently “conflating things, conveniently leaving some stuff out, construing things to make it seem not quite what it was” to paint him and other department figures in the worst possible light.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', times, serif; line-height: 1.467em; margin-bottom: 1em; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Of that group of critics, Mr. Holder said he believed that a few — the “more extreme segment” — were motivated by animus against Mr. Obama and that he served as a stand-in for him. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;b style="font-style: italic;"&gt;“This is a way to get at the president because of the way I can be identified with him,” he said, “both due to the nature of our relationship and, you know, the fact that we’re both African-American.” &amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;(emphasis is mine)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: right;

The designated successor is Kim Jong il's son, Kim Jong Un. &amp;nbsp; In a gesture surely meant to reassure neighboring South Korea that regime change will be peaceful and non-threatening, North Korea test-fired short range missiles off its eastern coast yesterday. &amp;nbsp;I feel better already! &amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Here's another &lt;a href="http://www.foxnews.com/us/2011/12/16/anonymous-donors-pay-off-kmart-layaway-accounts/?test=gnews&amp;amp;test=gnews"&gt;story&lt;/a&gt; about good samaritans paying off layaway accounts for holiday shoppers. &amp;nbsp;Thanks to Sahib for bringing this story to the attention of the SACSTW community. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;The Green Bay Packers dreams of an undefeated season and their 19 game winning streak died on the turf at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City. &amp;nbsp;Fourteen point underdogs going in to the game, the KC Chiefs authored the biggest upset of the NFL season with the assistance of an actual NFL coach and a professional quarterback. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;By now you have heard that the National Transportation and Safety Board (NTSB) has called for a nationwide ban on all usage of "portable electronic devices" while driving. &amp;nbsp;Specifically aimed at cell phones, this ban would include texting, voice calling, and even use of hands-free equipment. &amp;nbsp;While the Crew agrees that distracted driving is a threat to us all, this falls under the category of "you can't fix stupid" (with apologies to Ron White). &amp;nbsp;Look for bans of other driving distractions to soon follow, mascara, Egg McMuffins, billboards for strip clubs, and daredevil squirrels. &amp;nbsp;By the way, how would this ban affect those who are actually driving a "portable electronic device"? &amp;nbsp;Both Chevy Volt owners want to know. &amp;nbsp;For more information on distracted driving, readers are directed to P.J.

"She wasn't sure she was going to be able to pay off their layaway and was afraid their kids weren't going to have anything for Christmas." &amp;nbsp;Graff said, "You know, 50 bucks may not sound like a lot, but I tell you what, at the right time, it may as well be million dollars for some people."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

&amp;nbsp;That is exactly what they want to do in Big Bend National Park so the residents of the tiny Mexican town of Boquillas del Carmen don't have to travel the 240 miles to the nearest legal entry point. &amp;nbsp;Here is how it will work..... note that this requires a significant suspension of disbelief! &amp;nbsp;Border crossers using the "kiosk" will scan their documents in and talk to a Customs officer who will be at least 100 miles away. &amp;nbsp;Attention Dear Leader, kiosks are for selling sunglasses in the mall. &amp;nbsp;Gun towers and German Shepherds are for border crossings.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;A large Christmas light display&lt;a href="http://www.foxnews.com/world/2011/12/11/north-korea-threatens-south-korea-over-christmas-lights-near-border/?intcmp=obnetwork"&gt; has a neighbor angry&lt;/a&gt;, calling the display "psychological warfare". &amp;nbsp;No, this doesn't involve U.S. public schools, state courthouses, or any of the other places Christmas lights usually run afoul of the left. &amp;nbsp;This time, it's Kim Jong-il and his merry band of North Korean gangsters protesting a South Korean Christmas light display about 2 miles from the border with North Korea. &amp;nbsp;North Korea's official website decried the display as "a mean attempt for psychological warfare", and threatened retaliatory gunfire if the lights are actually switched on. &amp;nbsp;Geez, who knew?

From Latvia to Brazil,&amp;nbsp;Norway to Australia, SACSTW is spreading across the globe like a Justin Bieber Youtube video.&amp;nbsp; Sahib and I are proud of what SACSTW has become, and I am most proud that it took over 100 days for Justin Bieber to be mentioned in these pages! (I (Sahib) am most proud that we haven't done one 10,000th&amp;nbsp;of the damage to the country that our Dear Leader did in his first 100 days.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sahib and I are political junkies, but what we love even more is humor.&amp;nbsp;

All opinions are welcome here, share yours with the world by commenting on the blog, or email us at SACSTW@gmail.com.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Most of all continue to be a part of the SACSTW community by visiting regularly and telling your friends about the great time to be had at Sahib and the Crew Save The World!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6269879682383107786-4792017563262696875?l=sahibandcrew.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/feeds/4792017563262696875/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2011/11/long-thoughtful-look-back-at-first-100.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/4792017563262696875'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/4792017563262696875'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2011/11/long-thoughtful-look-back-at-first-100.html' title='A Long, Thoughtful Look Back At The First 100 Days'/><author><name>the Crew</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08105377009627447645</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='18' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ufvAxlZoldQ/TsQlpIMAglI/AAAAAAAAAEA/rJNHPdRiGso/s220/SACSTW%2Blogo.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-NieD-4Qe4a4/TtO0HwKRKFI/AAAAAAAAAFs/bmKEHqjUK2o/s72-c/5894-792898.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6269879682383107786.post-137427172265933675</id><published>2011-11-26T13:57:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2011-11-28T10:32:19.096-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sam brownback'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='big brother'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='shawnee mission school district'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='governnmental intrusion'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='facebook'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='twitter'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Orwell'/><title type='text'>Monitor This Governor Brownback!</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

The KDCI/GMAO is pleased to announce today that it has uncovered and foiled a nefarious plot to disparage and ridicule Dear Governor Brownback.&amp;nbsp; The scheme was hatched at the Shawnee Mission East High School chapter of the KDCI and spearheaded by Student-Citizen Emma Sullivan.&amp;nbsp; At a Youth In Government meeting in the glorious capitol city of Topeka,&amp;nbsp; Student-Citizen Sullivan willfully and without regard for Dear Governor’s feelings sent the following Tweet…”&lt;i&gt;Just made mean comments at gov. brownback and told him he sucked, in person #heblowsalot&lt;/i&gt;”.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"&gt;Fortunately for Dear Governor, the Tweet Detection Section of the Ministry of Adolescent Oversight immediately sprang into action.&amp;nbsp; The offending Student-Citizen was verbally corrected by SME Principal Karl Krawitz in his office for approximately one hour.&amp;nbsp; She was advised that her Tweet had embarrassed the SME chapter of KDCI Bureau 512, and “damage control” was needed with the office of Dear Governor.&amp;nbsp; Principal-Minister Krawitz is instructing Sullivan on the proper points to cover in her written apology to Dear Governor.&amp;nbsp; Leaders of the Kansas Department of Child Indoctrination are pleased that this vicious attack on Dear Governor was so promptly detected and effective counter-measures so quickly deployed.&amp;nbsp; KDCI is expected to award Sherienne Jones-Sontag, director of the Governor’s Ministry of Adolescent Oversight, with the prestigious Orwell Award for excellence in citizen monitoring.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"&gt;SACSTW Analysis:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"&gt;The sanitized version of this story appeared on the front page of the &lt;a href="http://www.kansascity.com/2011/11/23/3283680/students-joke-creates.html#storylink=omni_popular"&gt;Kansas City Star&lt;/a&gt; on Thanksgiving Day.&amp;nbsp; The student involved is an 18 year old, self-described liberal senior at Shawnee Mission East High School.&amp;nbsp; Although her tweet claimed she had made comments directly to Governor Brownback, no such verbal comments were made.&amp;nbsp; Let’s get a few points straight here:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;1. &amp;nbsp;Governor Sam Brownback is a conservative Republican&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;2. &amp;nbsp;The Crew is a conservative Republican&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;3. &amp;nbsp;Emma Sullivan is a liberal student&amp;nbsp; at Shawnee Mission &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; East High School&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;

font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;5. &amp;nbsp;Sam Brownback sucks&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"&gt; Freedom-loving Kansans of all political stripes should be horrified and disgusted that Sam Brownback is spending their tax monies (OPM) monitoring the internet for nasty comments about himself.&amp;nbsp; Here is a sentence from the Star story that is one the most chilling things I have ever read:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt 0.5in;"&gt;&lt;i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"&gt;Brownback’s director of communication wasn’t amused when the tweet was spotted during the routine daily monitoring of comments on Twitter and Facebook mentioning the governor’s name.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;Guess what Governor Brownback?&amp;nbsp; I’m not amused that you have state employees conducting “routine daily monitoring” of the Internet for people making snarky comments about you.&amp;nbsp; Perhaps you should re-familiarize yourself with the First Amendment.&amp;nbsp; Yeah, yeah, I know.&amp;nbsp; The First Amendment was written to apply to the federal government.&amp;nbsp; Still, I’d like to think that you as a former U.S. Senator would agree with the quaint little principle of free speech.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"&gt;I am guessing that as a 47 year old male conservative, I disagree with about 99.9% of what an 18 year old liberal female says.&amp;nbsp; What I do agree with is her right to voice her opinion, even if her opinion is that a male conservative “sucks”.&amp;nbsp; As an SME grad, I am truly embarrassed by the school principal’s heavy-handed response, and Principal Karl Krawitz should be the one apologizing.&amp;nbsp; By the way, why do I have this slightly queasy, uneasy feeling about guys named Carl who spell their name with a “K”?&amp;nbsp; But I digress.&amp;nbsp; The student (a legal adult by the way) committed no crime, and threatened no violence.&amp;nbsp; She expressed a POLITICAL opinion to which the state of Kansas and the Shawnee Mission East High School principal took exception.&amp;nbsp; That my friends is a very slippery slope indeed.&amp;nbsp; I attended class in the Shawnee Mission School District from kindergarten through high school.&amp;nbsp; I have long thought it to be one of the very finest public school districts in the country, and have resisted the concept that public schools are indeed “Departments of Indoctrination”.&amp;nbsp;

They hate Jews and by extension, Israel. &amp;nbsp;The Arab world cared nothing of the "Palestinian" people until Israel kept kicking their asses every time they attacked Israel.&amp;nbsp;The Palestinians are a convenient excuse to distract the Arab people from their ruling despots.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;There are no "Palestinian" people. &amp;nbsp;In the history of the world, there has never been a Palestine. They are people who lived in "Trans-Jordan", the 75% of the Palestine Mandate carved out for the "Palestinian" people. &amp;nbsp;Something conveniently forgotten by the world and the lefties in the US.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;div&gt;The moral of this story is that there will be no peace in the Middle East until Israel no longer exists. &amp;nbsp;Israel can make concession after concession, but as long as they control one square foot of land in the Middle East, there will be no peace. &amp;nbsp;If you believe otherwise, you are delusional or intentionally obtuse.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6269879682383107786-1286174031812275940?l=sahibandcrew.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/feeds/1286174031812275940/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2011/11/palestinian-state-just-say-no.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/1286174031812275940'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/1286174031812275940'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2011/11/palestinian-state-just-say-no.html' title='Palestinian State?

Kelsey De Santis posted a &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6Th0thA4qc"&gt;Youtube video&lt;/a&gt; asking Timberlake to attend the Marine Corps Ball in November.&amp;nbsp; Not only did Timberlake accept the invitation, he held up his end of the agreement and attended the ball with Cpl. De Santis in Washington, DC last week.&amp;nbsp; While De Santis and her Corps colleagues were understandably stoked about the superstar's attendance, Timberlake's thoughts on the evening were remarkable and inspiring.&amp;nbsp; On his &lt;a href="http://www.justintimberlake.com/"&gt;website&lt;/a&gt;, Timberlake posted a beautifully written article about his experience.&amp;nbsp; In part he said this:&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;“It was a surreal moment to be in that room with so many of our great Marines who have such a different type of connection to those stories. One that we who don’t serve will NEVER understand. It was familial. It was like they were listening to their own blood brothers. I glanced around the room at young men and women, spouses and soldiers… At kids way beyond their years, really… All so deeply entwined. Not just by battle, even though we who have never endured anything remotely close to those experiences and have NO position to comment on… But, by having such life changing experiences through them and to not ever waver in their love and respect for our homeland. That’s what I saw. A faith in us that has been tested time and time again. And, through it all, NEVER a drop of doubt.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;Please go to Timberlake's website to read the entire post.&amp;nbsp; I for one am not predisposed to appreciate boy band singers, but Justin Timberlake has grown up just fine.&amp;nbsp; As anyone who has seen his musical shorts with Andy Samberg knows, Timberlake is not just a great singer, but hysterically funny as well.&amp;nbsp; Mega-talented, self-deprecating, and greatly appreciative of the freedoms and opportunities afforded by our great country, Timberlake is the real deal.&amp;nbsp; Bravo Justin!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;Next up is Suffolk University (Mass.) Law School professor Michael Avery.&amp;nbsp; Avery responded to a campus wide drive for care packages to send to overseas troops this way in an &lt;a href="http://michaelgraham.com/archives/suffolk-law-school-prof-on-us-military-they-rsquo-re-ldquo-killers-rdquo-sympathy-for-them-ldquo-not-rational-in-today-rsquo-s-world-rdquo/"&gt;email&lt;/a&gt;:&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;em&gt;I think it is shameful that it is perceived as legitimate to solicit in an academic institution for support for men and women who have gone overseas to kill other human beings&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;This is what your tuition payments are going for parents!&amp;nbsp;

Here is a link to the original story on &lt;a href="http://www.foxnews.com/us/2010/05/06/california-students-sent-home-wearing-flags-cinco-mayo/"&gt;Fox News&lt;/a&gt;. &amp;nbsp;My favorite quote from the original story was this doozy, &amp;nbsp;“Freshman Laura Ponce, who had a Mexican flag painted on her face and chest, told the Morgan Hill Times that Cinco de Mayo is the ‘only day’ Mexican-American students can show their national pride.” &amp;nbsp; I would respectfully suggest to Miss Ponce, that as a “Mexican-American”, you would show your “national pride” by painting an American flag on your face and chest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Back to what is sure to be a hallmark of jurisprudence, Judge Ware’s decision…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As reported by &lt;a href="http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2011/11/11/BA2N1LU0HC.DTL"&gt;the San Francisco Chronicle&lt;/a&gt;, the lawsuit filed by the students “accused school officials of violating the standard that the Supreme Court set in 1969 when it upheld students' right to wear black armbands to class, in a silent protest against the Vietnam War, and said schools can suppress student expression only when it threatens to disrupt the educational process.” &amp;nbsp;But Judge Ware had a response; he said “post-1969 rulings by federal courts have deferred to school officials' conclusions that certain types of student expression could endanger the speakers - for example, decisions by three appellate courts upholding bans on the Confederate flag in schools with histories of racial tension.” &amp;nbsp;So according to Judge Ware, wearing an American flag in the People’s Republic of California is as racially incendiary as wearing a Confederate flag in the south. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After reading this, I thought that surely this high school must be located in an East LA barrio. &amp;nbsp;Maybe school officials made the correct decision. I did some quick research on this “racially charged” high school and community.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is the information I found. &amp;nbsp;I’ll let you decide if this high school is located in East LA.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Live Oak High School Sports (not a complete listing):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Cross Country&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Football&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Basketball&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Field Hockey&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Golf&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Tennis&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Volleyball&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Water polo&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Badminton&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Rugby&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Morgan Hill, California demographic information:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Population – 38,547&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Median household income - $95,968 ($37,000 above the state average)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Median house or condo value: &amp;nbsp;$647,883 ($265,000 above the state average)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Mean price for free-standing homes: &amp;nbsp;$835,769&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wow! &amp;nbsp;With the pressure of running from water polo practice to your next badminton match, how did poor little Laura Ponce find the energy to paint her face and chest? &amp;nbsp;Her hair stylist must have done it for her.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, the moral of the story devoted readers is this: &amp;nbsp;Your first amendment rights will be upheld as long as you are a threat to trample the first amendment rights of others. &amp;nbsp;If you are a peaceful, patriotic, law-abiding student, you have no first amendment rights, because the people you might offend might be violent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6269879682383107786-7540638845981136829?l=sahibandcrew.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/feeds/7540638845981136829/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2011/11/san-fran-judge-us-flag-equivalent-to.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/7540638845981136829'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6269879682383107786/posts/default/7540638845981136829'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sahibandcrew.blogspot.com/2011/11/san-fran-judge-us-flag-equivalent-to.html' title='San Fran Judge:  US Flag Equivalent to Confederate Flag'/><author><name>Sahib</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02710077740526033868</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-pybXXQY6Y5M/TsFPvOqHVyI/AAAAAAAAAFE/0L-0a2j9dIk/s72-c/Mexican-Flag-Allowed-on-Student-in-California-150x150.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6269879682383107786.post-8734186837301266214</id><published>2011-11-11T07:54:00.002-06:00</published><updated>2011-11-11T10:05:54.130-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Liberty'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='World War II'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='World War I'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Freedom'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Veterans Day'/><title type='text'>I Fought For You:  Required Viewing</title><content type='html'>Sahib and The Crew would like to thank all members of the military past and present for your service and sacrifice for our country and all our families.

protests.&amp;nbsp; More accurately,they hate the protesters.&amp;nbsp; Obama, Biden,Reid, Pelosi, Wasserman-Schultz, et al. will never admit it, but believe me,they hate the Occupy protesters.&amp;nbsp; Oh theysmile for the media and talk about how they “support” the protesters, but they secretly wishsomeone would detonate a giant Raid bug-bomb on the whole group.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;You may ask, “Sahib, how can that be true?&amp;nbsp; These protesters represent the left’s votingbase.&amp;nbsp; How can their political leadershate them?”&amp;nbsp; Elementary my dear readers,who wants an unwashed, undisciplined, incoherent, bat-shit crazy group ofpeople promoting their agenda?&amp;nbsp; As muchas Obama and his MSM drones love to bag on the Tea Party movement, they would givetheir eye-teeth to have the Tea Party people backing Obama’s socialistplatform.&amp;nbsp; I mean come on; who would youprefer backing your cause?&amp;nbsp; Mr. and Mrs.Joe America with their two bright-eyed apple-cheeked children or a bunch of unwashedmosh pit rejects? &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;For example, I think it is safe to say that most evangelicalChristians are not big proponents of homosexual causes.&amp;nbsp; How do you think they feel when they see thatidiot from Topeka, Fred Phelps, and his loony family protesting at a fallensoldier’s funeral? “Go get ‘em Freddy!?”&amp;nbsp;Heck no, they realize his hatred and vitriol tarnishes the image ofanyone who opposes the GLBT agenda.&amp;nbsp; It’sguilt by association.&amp;nbsp; The same goes forthe Occupato Mafia and their support for a socialistic nirvana here in the goodold USA.&amp;nbsp; Crazy people are bad for your message.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;As exposed by SACSTW’s
