The Outrage of Nigel

The link to this was provided by a reader (Phssthpok) who commented on an earlier article.  It’s just to good to leave buried in ‘comments’. 

The righteous outrage of Nigel Farage, when he says ‘Just who the hell do you think you are.”  is the type of backbone I wish conservatives possessed.  With that said, Lindsey is showing promise.


Bad Math

These folk are looking at the prospects of winning either one, or both, of these lotteries all wrong.  The odds are 50/50; I either win or I don’t!

It’s Getting Entertaining

A federal judge in Los Angeles on Monday threw out adult-film actress Stormy Daniel’s defamation lawsuit against President Trump on free-speech grounds.

“The court agrees with Mr. Trump’s argument because the tweet in question constitutes ‘rhetorical hyperbole’ normally associated with politics and public discourse in the U.S.,”

Importantly, the President is entitled to an award of his attorneys’ fees the amount will be determined at a later date.

October Surprise for Mid-Terms?

Congressional Republicans are collecting evidence to show an extensive, election year, anti-Trump conspiracy between Hillary Clinton operatives such as Fusion GPS and Barack Obama appointees at the Justice Department and the FBI.

The investigation took a new turn last week. Fusion co-founder Glenn Simpson decided to invoke the Fifth Amendment rather than testify under subpoena before a special House Republican task force.

Palladium of Liberty

“This may be considered as the true palladium of liberty…. The right of self defense is the first law of nature: in most governments it has been the study of rulers to confine this right within the narrowest limits possible. Wherever standing armies are kept up, and the right of the people to keep and bear arms is, under any color or pretext whatsoever, prohibited, liberty, if not already annihilated, is on the brink of destruction.”

– St. George Tucker

Upon Their Ruins

“What, Sir, is the use of a militia? It is to prevent the establishment of a standing army, the bane of liberty …. Whenever Governments mean to invade the rights and liberties of the people, they always attempt to destroy the militia, in order to raise an army upon their ruins.”

– Rep. Elbridge Gerry of Massachusetts

18th Saying in the Gospel of Thomas

The disciples said to Jesus, “Tell us how our end will be.” Jesus said, “Have you discovered, then, the beginning, that you look for the end? For where the beginning is, there will the end be. Blessed is he who will take his place in the beginning; he will know the end and will not experience death.”

Checking in with Liberal Central

An excellent read on plantation live and liberal control is posted at the American Spectator.  In part it reads:

The media’s meltdown over Kanye’s trip to the Oval Office reflects nothing more than its horrified realization that Trump is eating the left’s lunch, poaching more and more voters from once-monopolized lib constituencies. Apparently Kanye West is supposed to check with the central office of the Left’s Ministry of Truth before opening his mouth. Anything less is “surreal,” according to the media. What a bunch of totalitarian creeps.

Conspiracy in Space?

The Chandra X-ray Observatory has gone into safe mode and halted all its science operations a few days after Hubble shut down.  According to NASA, Chandra’s transition into safe mode was possibly triggered by an issue that has something to do with its gyroscope, the component in charge of pointing and stabilizing the telescope.

Roll Tide

As usual, things turned out just fine for the top-ranked Crimson Tide.

Tagovailoa passed for 265 yards and three touchdowns but didn’t return after aggravating a right knee injury in No. 1 Alabama’s 39-10 victory over Missouri on Saturday night.

The Tide (7-0, 4-0 Southeastern Conference) shrugged off another would-be challenger in the league, but the star quarterback went down after sliding at the end of a run in the third quarter. 

“Tua could have went back in the game,” Tide coach Nick Saban said. “He wanted to go back in the game. I didn’t think it was worth it.” 

The only thing Yahoo gets right is sports.  More college football results here.

Sufficient Arms

“A free people ought not only to be armed and disciplined, but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to maintain a status of independence from any who might attempt to abuse them, which would include their own government.”

– George Washington

Homestead Redone

This picture is a modified photo that I took of an old homestead on AL Hwy 207 near the Tennessee line.  It is one of several that I placed on this page

The picture was modified using a program called paint.net, the version is 4.4.1  The ‘effect’ used is called Oil Paint.

Given that the program is free, powerful, and scary easy to use, if your into playing with pictures I highly recommend it.

Pocket Pistol Defense

I now carry a pocket pistol instead of a side arm.  My reasons are simple:

-I should be able to get out of any bad situation with 12 rounds (including a magazine exchange).

-I can carry without dressing like I’m carrying

-I can carry and no one knows, and thus less likely to try and separate me from my weapon

-A well placed shot from a 380 is just as lethal as any other round.

Go, Please Just Go

This woman could not do enough damage to this country when she was a Senator or Secretary of State.  Now she has to sow the seeds of division as a washed up and failed politician.  Can you imagine the damage this scum would have done as President?

CNN and the Token Negro

A CNN panel hosted by anchor Don Lemon took turns lacing into Kanye West on Tuesday evening, joking that his embrace of President Donald Trump has caused him to be tokenized. Several referred to him using the term “negro.”

Tara Setmeyer:  He’s an attention whore — He clearly has issues. He’s already been hospitalized. 

Bakari Sellers:  Kanye West is what happens when negroes don’t read,

Shame

I’ve blocked out the offensive word in the child’s placard.  How a parent could do this to their young child escapes me.  As Wire-cutter might suggest:  “straight up white trash’.

Sagan: We are Wanderers

This is a great little piece that provokes thought.  I choose to overlook the reference to natural selection that occurs (oddly I might add) near the middle of the narrative.  How Carl could compose this without seeing the presence of God in man’s long journey  escapes me.
