Frankly the only interesting thang I’ve ever heard ‘bout him, was him bein’ part gator.<BR/><BR/>And speaking of killin'....<BR/><BR/>Nearly 60 people have been killed in mass shooting incidents in the last month:<BR/>• March 10 - Alabaman shoots mother, grandmother and eight others.<BR/>• March 22 - Shooter kills three cops and self.<BR/>• March 31 - Shooter kills six in Silicon Valley<BR/>• March 29 - North Carolinian shoots eight in nursing home.<BR/>• April 3 - Fourteen shot in Binghamton New York.<BR/>• April 4 - Glenn Beck fan murders three cops.<BR/>• April 4 - Security guard shoots his five children then commits suicide.<BR/>• April 7 - Floridian shoots wife, daughter, two others, and self.<BR/>• April 8 - Catholic volunteer wounds four, kills one.<BR/><BR/>That's a lot of killing even for a country gurl like me. It's more than our combat losses for the same time period in Iraq and Afghanistan combined. It's no wonder people are startin’ to wonder what should be done about it. Thankfully, Mr. Posey has the right answer. Make guns even more available.<BR/><BR/>“While our 2nd Amendment rights enjoyed a major victory this summer when the Supreme Court struck down the Washington, D.C. gun ban, the fight is not over,” said Senator Posey. “The liberal left will continue to attack our constitutional right to bear arms. If elected to Congress, I will continue to be an advocate for gun owners and their rights, just as I have done in the Florida House and Senate.”Trixie McWasserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10540555767120333523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3222325649627666682.post-14560931641021719782009-04-10T12:30:00.000-04:002009-04-10T12:30:00.000-04:00That it does BUR.

Like "fighting them over there so we don't have to fight them here". Al Qaida picks a fight with us so we make a country that didn't have anything to do with it the battlefield.<BR/>Or like we withhold aid in the form of birth control and pre-natal care to the poorest countries in the name of being pro-life while America has access to those things and abortion. Or not requiring corporations to remove toxic components from electronics because we export them to poor countries when we're through with them.<BR/>Those are the type things that seem to be saying God Bless America and damn the rest of the world.LDouglashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03460073063880619647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3222325649627666682.post-19310276288717645752009-04-09T21:45:00.000-04:002009-04-09T21:45:00.000-04:00How funny - I've had this conversation before, and...How funny - I've had this conversation before, and it seems there are two schools of thought on the "god bless america" thing. When I say "god bless you" to someone, I don't mean " and damn everyone else." But maybe other people do mean that. Seems odd, but hey, that's what y'all are saying. <BR/><BR/>If I say "god bless america," to me that doesn't mean "and damn the rest of the world." But it does seem to imply that to others. As I said, I've discussed this with journalists and pundits and there are those who think both ways. <BR/><BR/>But for me, if I give you my blessings, or hope for some for you, I am not intending in any way for my other friends or strangers to be forgotten.<BR/><BR/>And agree with Max -- Ghandi was all well and good, believe me I'm a fan. But his attitude only works on those with a conscience. There are too many so-called people who don't have a conscience, who are evil. They need caging. Like Hitler, etc. Someone has to keep them from doing their evil, or we all go down the drain. <BR/><BR/>It's nice to dream, but glad you woke up! ;-)BlessUrHearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08144063569701101325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3222325649627666682.post-18012555802110969632009-04-09T21:05:00.000-04:002009-04-09T21:05:00.000-04:00I failed to see humor in the video- other than the...I failed to see humor in the video- other than the title "yo grandmama". We'll probably never all get along when it comes to politics but it doesn't mean we can't be civil. Really, saying Mr. Posey was part alligator might have been fine but to suggest his grandmother did such a thing is pretty low. And even if the bill was aimed as an insult to President Obama it still wouldn't make him the worst person in the world- not even by a long shot.<BR/><BR/>But as far as being tired of pointing fingers at each other, I hear ya. I'll skim for the tinge of truth but tune out a lot when it gets too heavy one way or another (like barty today).<BR/><BR/>I also question with you why God should bless America and not the whole world. And I'll add why we think we're entitled to exploit their resources including their people for our excess.<BR/>(I mean what does it say when 1 in 5 American four year old's are obese while a child dies of starvation in the rest of the world every 5 seconds?)<BR/><BR/>Geez, I hope I didn't make you feel worse. Here- drift away for a few minutes if you need to.<BR/>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_iE-fWs4GFkLDouglashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03460073063880619647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3222325649627666682.post-46504988700194942272009-04-09T21:03:00.000-04:002009-04-09T21:03:00.000-04:00Thanks Max, for slappin us upside the head, it cer...Thanks Max, for slappin us upside the head, it certainly is good to be reminded that some folks need killin. It's been a long week, we're sure we'll be back to our ole vinegar veined self in no time. <BR/><BR/>How bout we go out and celebrate, I'll drink you under the table, that should take, what? About 15 minutes? See?

There is some real evil out there that we need to oppose with every ounce of our being. How we define good and evil will always give us something to talk about. Damn!!! Was that profound or what?<BR/><BR/>Lemmon is neither good nor evil. Just pretty boring. Looks like he found a buddy today with commenter "Barty". That fellow has some real time on his hands.<BR/><BR/>It bothers your old friend Max to see you on this borderline Kumbaya/Rodney King/Can't we all just get along kick. Hopefully its just alcohol withdrawal that you were experiencing during the lunch and I do know it was a shock to your system to be up and about that early. The light at that time of day can be ungodly.<BR/><BR/>We need to find this "Barty" guy and either kill him with extreme malice or beg the Press Journal to honor him as their "Blogger King" or something. Yes, I was that impressed.<BR/><BR/>I hope you are back to your gum snapping tobacco spitting self real soon, ya hear?Max Newporthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04927242551959183746noreply@blogger.com
