President In Photo Op States "Not Interested In Photo Ops"

After his photo op with Texas Governor Perry, Obama said he would not visit the Texas border to see for himself the immigration disaster he (Obama) had created because he was not interested in photo ops. He had to speak quickly because he was late for his next photo op with Colorado Governor Hickenlooper. Later, he had a meeting with Superman seeking advice on how to stop an unwanted alien invasion and, you guessed it, there was a photo op...cjpost

Surely The Liberal Could Do Nothing Stupid For At Least One Day

It would be nice to get through one day without some pathetic reminder of this current idiot president we have sticking his nose in our business. This morning I noticed an article in the monthly publication the electric co-op sends out titled "EPA dictates utility rules to states." It seems the idiot president we have issued an executive order authorizing the EPA to dictate to the states which energy sources each is allowed to use taking that authority away from utility companies and state utility regulators and putting it in the hands of a few bureaucrats in Washington, D.C. with no expertise in, nor any responsibility for, providing reliable electricity at affordable rates. This stupidity is all part of the retarded effort of liberals to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. The problem is, all studies related to this fiasco show no discernible effect on global CO2 emissions but significantly rate increases for consumers. Essentially this means, we are making a change for no reason that does nothing except increasing the price of the product. I did not make it through this day without my daily pathetic reminder of what it means to have a liberal president, perhaps tomorrow will be the day, one can always hope. cjpost

The Greatest Among Us

There are great men and great women who few of us would find ourselves worthy to be compared with who fought for, died for, suffered injury for or simply stood ready to do so, to ensure our freedom. Many of them bear the scars, some seen, some unseen, and wear them to the grave where at last they will be set free from the burden they agreed to bear for us. These are the selfless ones among us, the soldier, the guardian to the gates of freedom and liberty. Because of our soldiers those who attempt to break through these gates will, to put it politely, die trying. The enemies soldiers serve one man, our soldiers serve all men, so you see, failure is simply not an option. Their sacrifice can never be paid for but we can, on this day, thank them and thank God for them. On that day their burden is lifted they will surely hear "Job well done, good and faithful servant" but until then they should hear it from us today and every day. Happy 4th of July. cjpost

The Law Is Just Another Drug

I am not sure how this idea that government is good gained acceptance. Perhaps it takes the occasional charismatic demagogue with a mysterious skill of persuasion to cause that portion of our flock with little capacity of deductive reason to plunge over the cliff's edge with wild abandon. However such unfortunate things happen there is always the point where those who jumped wish they hadn't because one's life is much worse when, after the exhilaration of the fall, one hits bottom. Government is not good. Government is Force, government is Law. Law is similar to a drug, Drugs are Bad. The doctor prescribes a drug to the patient knowing the drug is bad but the alternative is worse. A drug does not discriminate, it might cure one's ailment but injure one's body at the same time. The law is much the same, it might address some problem but it causes harm to liberty or freedom. A good doctor will only prescribe a drug when there is no other option and the alternative is worse. There was a time we viewed the law in like manner to a drug and only turned to it as last resort. We now turn to the drug of law as our preferred first choice option in matters much better handled without without law and seem oblivious to the fact we are killing the patient. cjpost
