This'n'That; December Fifth #2; 'bout Time!

A REAL Conservative Debate?!?
    "The Donald" Trump will be hosting a (hopefully) conservative presidential debate in Des Moines, Ia., on December 27th.  I'd like to see a truely conservative, real debate rather than the socio-fascist moderated ones we've been subjected to thusfar!!  In each previous debate, the socio-fascist teleprompter readers from CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, NPR, MSNBC, et al, baited each of the GOP participants to battle each-other, rather than the primary objective: effective alternatives to "Clown Prince ZERO-bama, the Narcissist!!"
    The GOP primary 'bottom-feeder,' Jon Huntsman has already rejected participation in the Trump-moderated debate.  Through a spokesman, Mr Huntsman said he's awaiting Romney and Gingrich as they 'suck up to Trump!!'  Apparently forgetting the Trump demand that "Clown Prince ZERO-bama, the Narcissist" produce a birth certificate,  Rep Ron Paul likewise rejected participation, saying "the event was below the dignity of the presidency!  Has Mr Paul not seen the photos of the current idiot in the White House with his feet all over the Resolute Desk?!?

This'n'That; November Fourth #2; One Reason....

[As usual, likely out-0f-sequence, see: http://www.justincase505.wordpress.com/]
Why owe-bama NOT Re-electable
    I've found at least one reason "Clown Prince ZERO-bama, the Narcissist" isn't considered by most to be re-electable.  One can 'google' practically any topic considered 'political or governmental' and have the "Clown Prince" tied to it.  As the ruler of the country, the "Clown Prince" is the 'chief-potentate' of the bureaucracy; 'the buck' is supposed to stop at his desk;--you know, that Resolute Desk he puts his feet all over--he's responsible for the decisions, the actions of all those in the federal government.
    Nevada is one of those states in the 'direst of circumstances,' and could use some injected economic activity outside the gambling and 'boinking' industries.  Many in the state's legislature are questioning the logic, the reasoning behind the federal rules and regulations involving mining and oil industries.  With gold and silver bullion prices at or near all time highs, the owe-bama government continues to stand on the throats of those Nevadans who own and/or operate said precious metals mines.
    "Clown Prince ZERO-bama, the Narcissist"--by extension--requires that those considering opening/re-opening a mine perform the following:
    "pinky" reid notwithstanding, can there be any greater idiot than barack INSANE obama whom we less-than-fondly refer to as the "Clown Prince?!?"  There's gotta be Congressional member of the "Tea Party" persuasion who can come to the aid of not only Nevada mining interests but all other states and industries being castrated by "Clown Prince ZERO-bama, the Narcissist" on the orders of George Soros and the other members of the Bilderberg Group.
The drill sites must be cleared by using hand tools.
The drilling equipment and fuel must be transported to the site by teams of pack mules.
The mules must be fed certified weed-free hay.
Drill site and trail reclamation must be done using hand tools.

This'n'That; September Fourteenth #2;Emails

One Email On Point; But Will Be Ignored!
    I can thank one of my many "friends-I've-never-met!"  During my years as a truck driver, I met lots of people on the internet as I traveled throughout the United States.  One of those folks--this one from central Virginia--sends me the highly-forwarded emails she thinks I might like.  This one is truly on-point, but will be ignored by those who violate it's principles as a norm:
The Problem with Public Housing
    The problem with public housing is the residents are not the owners.  The people that live in the house did not earn the house, but were loaned the property from the true owners, the taxpayers.  Because of this, the residents do not have the "pride of ownership" that comes with the hard work necessary to earn it.
    In fact, the opposite happens and the residents resent their benefactors because the very house is a constant reminder they themselves did not earn the right to live in the house.  They do not appreciate the value of the property and see no need to maintain or respect it in any way.
    The result is the same whether you are talking about a studio apartment or a magnificent mansion full of priceless antiques.  If the people who live there do not feel they've earned the privilege, they will make this know through their actions.
These two photos more than prove the point of the email!!

    Hey, AssholeGit'cher feet offa'da furniture!!
You--being the amateur president and professional community agitator, you are--may not realize this, but the desk you're using for a foot-stool has far more history than your one term can ever provide you.
    For your information and edification the desk you're abusing is known as "The Resolute Desk."  See, the 'HMS Resolute' was a British Artic exploration ship of the 19th century. The ship--and three others--were abandoned near Disaster Bay (in the Canadian Artic) after being 'frozen in' for the winter of 1854.  The ship was found by an American whaler, James Buddington, drifting in the thawing iceflow of the Spring of 1855.  He sailed the ship to a Navy facility in New London, Ct.  Even after England relinquished all claims to it, the HMS Resolute was repatriated to the British Navy, Spithead, England on December 17, 1856.
    The ship--after arriving in New London--was purchased from the salvager by the US Congress, sent to the Brooklyn Navy Yard for a complete refurbishing.  The presentation of the ship as a gift  to the British government was to soothe poor relations that had continued since the War of 1812.
    In 1879--after the Resolute had outlived it's usefulness--the ship was dismantled at the Chatham Dockyard, Chatham, England.  At Queen Victoria's request, timbers from the Resolute were used to build five desks, one of which the Queen presented to President Rutherford B. Hayes, in 1880.
   So--I repeat--keep yer feet offa'da furniture, Asshole!!
