POLITICAL: Could this be the line in the sand?

Thursday, January 24, 2013

“I will note that the legislation passed by the New York legislature and signed by Governor Cuomo is anti-Constitutional. I don’t recall reading “…shall not be infringed, except in New York State” anywhere in the Bill of Rights. Since this legislation outlaws guns and magazines which are currently legal and requires their surrender; and since it leaves the people of New York without the ability to defend themselves against outlaws who ignore these restrictions; then by the arguments in this series of papers, it represents a declaration of war against the law-abiding, gun-owning citizens of New York State, and is thus an act of Treason against the People of New York and the United States.”

SO what will the gun owners do? Could this be the start of the revolt? Remember the Boston Massacre!

The original Democratic peoposal, that they didn’t want out, called for confiscation.

MOLON LABE!

Taylor Swift enjoys lunch with cancer-stricken fan

Posted: 01/22/2013

Last Updated: 2 hours ago

Country star TAYLOR SWIFT enjoyed a long lunch with a cancer-stricken fan in Michigan on Saturday (19Jan13) after hearing about the teenager’s tragic plight.

The Love Story hitmaker became aware of 17-year-old Kayla Kincannon’s year-long battle with brain cancer and her burning ambition to meet the star after her family and friends launched an online campaign to get the singer’s attention.

Swift and her mother spent the afternoon with Kayla and her family before presenting the teen with a gift basket and signed photos.

RANT: The Gooferment and highways

Monday, January 21, 2013

Any suspicion that the sign diverting “thru traffic” on to the Richmond 295 bypass, was to feed “speeders” into the radar traps set up there?

YEah, it was just coincidence!

And, I’m lucky in that I smeeled a rat and set the cruise at 60. (Five under!) And watched them ruin some ppor slobs day off!

Coincidence my A double q!

RANT: “unofficial agreements” about press coverage

Sunday, January 20, 2013

White House Sends Warning Letter to Photographer who Photographed Obama’s Daughters
via PINAC by Carlos Miller on 1/8/13

*** begin quote ***

A celebrity photographer who snapped photos of President Barack Obama’s daughters frolicking on a public beach in Hawaii received a warning from the White House that their privacy should be respected.

As official and intimidating it may be to receive such a letter from the White House, it carries no legal standing. It is merely part of an informal agreement Obama has with the media, which once used to pride itself in being the Fourth Estate.

The photographer was on the beach last week waiting to snap a photo of Jessica Simpson when he spotted Malia and Sasha Obama, age 14 and 11, so he naturally snapped their photos, thinking he could make a sale.

But he was quickly accosted by Secret Service agents, who demanded his identification. They did not delete his photos but told him not to take anymore photos.

The photographer then turned around and sold the existing images, which he had every right to do if he did not personally agree to the agreement with the White House.

*** and ***

While it is understandable that Obama would like to keep his daughters out of the public eye, it makes one wonder what other “unofficial agreements” he has made with the media not to report certain information.

*** end quote ***

I really don’t have a problem if the news people report only what they fell is news worthy.

I do have a problem when the Gooferment has “unofficial agreements”.

If at the beginning of every year, there was an explicit  public statement of what and was not acceptable about the children, I’d applaud.

But, then the politicians can’t trot them out as “props”. Same for the First Ladies, they are either “in politicos” and hence “fair game”. Or out as Laura Bush, and then out of bounds.

imho!

Northampton police may use student statements in high school threat investigation
By Fred Contrada, The Republican
on January 09, 2013 at 4:15 PM, updated January 11, 2013 at 1:39 PM

*** begin quote ***

NORTHAMPTON – Police are hoping that a statement signed by Northampton High School students to take threats seriously will give them a new lead in their investigation into a Dec. 19 incident that emptied the school shortly after the Newtown shootings.

*** end quote ***

How can this be anything but an intrusion? This just reminds us about how much Gooferment Skrules are hated by the future inmates and how little their God-given rights are respected.
