A couple of years ago a friend and her husband, tourists in Germany, weer befriended by a man and his wife, who kept in touch subsequently by email. On the dismal day when the Neighborhood Organizer, the "present" voter, and general know-nothing was inaugurated, the German fellow phoned her to ask what she was doing.
"Why, I'm at work; what else?"
The guy was astounded that she, unlike him, was not glued to the tube and ogling what he erroneously - unless the preface to the downfall of a great country counts - construed as a momentous event.
Poor, stupid, deluded Euro man! Had he got his opinions from ABC, CNN, and their ilk, or are German "news" sources equally biased, benighted, and offensive?
Apparently B.O.'s whistle stop pause, following his overnight mastery of the Iraq situation - tee hee, had wowed the Teutonics almost as much as John Kennedy's "Ich bin eine Berliner" sweet nothing some years back.
Well, they were duped by Adolph Hitler, so perhaps that explains the gentleman's gullibility. On the other hand, perhaps its smugness at seeing the failure of a country that bested them in every way, or, as others have suggested, glee at B.O.'s apologizing for everything we've done. Another option is unwarranted joy at seeing a mulatto elected. Take your pick from among this set of bad reasons.

DOCUMENTS
No country that ever materialized on this Earth was so blessed as the U.S. in the company of selfless, courageous sages on hand to forge it. They generated two precious, unique documents, the Declaration of Independence and our Constitution.
For over 200 years this nation was born and throve under those compositions and rose to a position of pre-eminence. We should NEVER, EVER sacrifice a micro-inch of what the Constitution and Bill of Rights GUARANTEE.
Yet, today, people like Sotowhat'shername, newly infiltrated into the Supreme Court, and many of B.O.'s Harvard puppeteers want you to believe that that our sacred Constitution is some sort variable code to be interpreted according to the direction the wind is blowing. Folks, that's a crock!
How many of you have read the Constitution? GO DO THAT. That's language understandable to a secondary schooler - or was, at least, back when secondary schoolers received educations in competent English. A person doesn't need a law degree and years on a judicial bench, for example, to understand that "Congress shall pass no law respecting the establishment of religion" pertains to Congress' passing laws, NOT to prohibiting children from praying in school.
You ought to let your senators know that you know that the Constitution was NOT written by Frank Baum or the Brothers Grimm and that they should refrain from appointing judges that feel otherwise.

IS CINO AN APPROPRIATE ACRONYM?
As often happens I feel constrained to correct something I saw in a "news" headline.
This one read, "Kennedy dispute reveals divide among Catholics," which is entirely incorrect; Catholics are not in favor of abortion, any more than they are of the murder of those outside the womb. It violates a commandment; hence, also Catholic teaching.
No, there is no divide among Catholics on the issue, but just as RINO, Republicans In Name Only, is informative, perhaps Catholics In Name Only deserve their own tag.
Happy Thanksgiving!

DEMOCRAT SOUND AND FURY SIGNIFYING SOMETHING
The something is FEAR, that's for certain.
Haven't you noticed the vicious, gratuitous attacks, the enurectic whining and plaints, the scurrying into holes like frightened mice that the syllables, "Sarah Palin," cause the Democrats?
No sooner was her book out than the Hughes Internet Service Provider, which didn't know she existed - except for her daughter's error - during the campaign, pounced on her with assorted charges of mendacity. They're headquartered, I discovered, around Baltimore, a lunatic liberal infestation if ever there was one. (Been there lately? I wouldn't bother, but if you're daring, exercise you Second Amendment Rights - while you still have them.)
A military base - yes, blockheads, you made him Commander-in-Chief, too, and if you forgot that, as you did everything sensible, you should correct that at your earliest opportunity - attempted to deny her the visibility other authors take for granted.
B.O., the N.O., wants to raise a $500,000 save-my-ruinous-plans-for-health-care fund, because of dangerous Sarah's adverse effect on it. Calling George Soros, calling George Soros.
Baby-murderers loathe and fear her because, like a good, Christian mother, she delivered a child she knew was retarded.
When the forces of WRONG oppose anything so strenuously, be assured that something is RIGHT.
John McCain was either too stupid or too vain to realize what an asset had been dropped upon him, misused her egregiously, and paid the price. No, come to think of it, WE paid the price; McCain is still sitting prettily as one of the few moderate Democrats in this excuse for a senate.
Mrs. Palin and those close to her should be vigilant in her protection. A lunatic liberal feels that any excess, lie, or crime is justified when it may lead to what he KNOWS with immense confidence and arrogance to be right. He is just as fanatical as a lunatic Muslim, who stands willing to murder scores of the innocent every day. By the way, B.O. is demanding that authority, too, isn't he?

WHO FUNDS THE JERKS?
I mean the LACLU = Lousy ACLU.
Who pops for the legal bills when the jerks sue some institution for injecting a note of Christianity into its proceedings, or is it just pro bono work by rabidly anti-Christian attorneys?
Who's behind them: Jews, Muslims, non-denominational atheists?
Whoever the scrofulous pigs and the sources of their bankrolls, it's great to see them slapped down so often, as lately in Florida.

DOES IT HAVE A FOOTBALL TEAM?
Yes, I know I rant regularly against college football, when the concept is abused, which is nearly always, but I mean the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences, which is the institution that awarded the Ft. Hood murderer with an M.D. in Psychiatry.
Most of the places from which students would like to have an M.D. degree - such as Johns Hopkins, University of Illinois, Stanford, and Harvard - have football teams, so this was merely my whimsical way of asking myself if USUHS is a mainline school or a get-an-M.D.-by-Internet college.
Directly following the tragedy I looked for it on the web, but its site was "unavailable," said my browser, for a day or two. Following that absence their page featured a statement of regret. I think if colleges routinely apologized for the wrongdoings of their graduates, they'd be doing more of that than of playing football; insofar as reasonable inference is valid, USUHS should be free of suspicion of misconduct.
I completed the web page inquiry form and asked for a list of its medical faculty. Since I'm still awaiting a reply, I have no idea if it's a get-an-M.D.-by-Internet school, let alone whether it has a football team.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!
No, I didn't miss the anniversary of Black (meaning bad, ominous, frightening) Tuesday - just had other things to do.
Here's a capsule assessment of our progress in a year.
1. Wars in Iraq and Afghanistan about the same.
2. Second-rate Supreme Court appointee that flagrantly flaunts her bigoted notions over those of the U.S. Constitution.
3. Vigorous war on unborn lives advancing as never before.
4. Nationalization of some industries and banks.
5. Record unemployment.
6. Government's being run by an assortment of anti-American tsars and tsarina's accountable to no one but B.O.
7. Debt with so many zeroes that even Carl Sagan couldn't have named the quantity.
8. Vigorous war on decent health care that hard-working, responsible people have earned for themselves.
Well, that's enough; contemplating our deterioration makes me ill and angry.

YES, VA. AND NJ, YOU ARE A SANTA CLAUS!
Bravo and brava, Virginia and New Jersey! You did the RIGHT THING and don't ever forget it! At the very least you have saved the lives of many, unborn children, and saving lives earns people medals. I have none of those to award you, unless prayers of gratitude count. If so, consider yourselves rewarded in much better than metal and fabric.

RESPONSIBILITY FOR DECISIONS
I read that in Montana several days ago a fellow was arrested for murdering a 69-year-old and 62-year-old couple when they surprised him in the act of burgling their home. It was gruesome - throats cut, multiple stab wounds, etc. (Is there a knife-control faction among the legislators? Perhaps there should be background checks and waiting periods for purchasing kitchen knives and corkscrews.)
While this is an everyday event in violence-riddled America, it struck me even more tragic that just ONE WEEK before, the murderer had been freed on $50,000 bail after being charged with intent to commit homicide by bludgeoning a man on the head! (See parenthetical expression above as regarding rocks and heavy objects.)
My direction here is not weapons control; no, not by a long shot. I believe judges, physicians, and others, on whose authority dangerous criminals are released among us, must bear criminal responsibility for the subsequent acts of those they liberate. The Constitution affords us the right to bail, and I do not oppose the concept, but how many rapes, murders, and other crimes are perpetrated upon us by maniacs that are foraging the streets while awaiting trial or who have been pronounced harmless by psychiatrists? These should be charged the same as the criminals they set loose, and bearing the responsibility for one's actions would make him immensely more circumspect.

THE SIX MILLION
No, I don't reference the disputed number of killings of Jews by Germans in WW II, I intend the exorbitant number of jobs B.O. & Co. claim to have created/saved by printing and spreading (mainly wasting) several trillion once-respected dollars hither and yon.
Each month the number of unemployed are reported to have increased despite the legerdemain of the Neighborhood Organizer and his anti-American advisers. As throughout his campaign and this disastrous first year, the magic is all in the lips, folks. He done created nothin'.
In the novel, 1984, when the chocolate ration was decreased, the corrupt dictatorship said it had been increased, and all the spineless, cringing saps swallowed the lie. Are you not reminded of Stalin's Soviet Union? It's the same with B.O. and his attempts at a dictatorship; lie upon lie upon lie. Don't be a spineless sap; don't swallow the fantasies ABC, CBS, NPR, and most of the others propagate. Look at the data, look around you, and use your bloody heads!
