California allows college aid to illegal immigrants

SACRAMENTO (Reuters) - California Governor Jerry Brown on Saturday signed a bill giving illegal immigrant college students access to state-funded financial aid, the second half of two-part legislation known as the "Dream Act."
The controversial measure, which passed the Democrat-controlled legislature on a party-line vote in September, represents a victory for immigrant-rights activists ahead of the 2012 presidential election. California is the nation's most populous state.
Only two other states, Texas and New Mexico, allow illegal immigrants to qualify for state financial aid for college, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures.

What a crock of shit.
I'm paying for Jose to go to college now? And how many white kids get this kind of aid for their education?

Bacon. Mmmmm, bacon.....

We went out to Denair this morning and bought a shitload of pig meat. Lisa had spotted bulk packages advertised in the paper, mix & matches of meats, different weights, that sort of thing. So we loaded up the truck and headed out to Denair, about 20 miles south of here, and ordered up their $50 Piggy Package.
It was cool, an old fashioned market with a genuine meat counter, no pre-packaged meat here. We ended up with 20 pounds of pork (4 pounds of bad-ass bacon and 4 pounds of sausage), and we also scored a couple of chickens and  5 pounds of ground beef. All that along with other stuff we bought while we were there came to about 90 bucks.
So with that and the beef already in the freezer, we're good on meat for another month.

That'll cure the hiccups.

If he had his way

Back when I was single......

Okay, this photo was obviously posed.
Until recently, I have rarely seen the top of my table. It was usually covered in bills (aka unopened mail) gun cleaning materials, maybe a fishing reel that I took apart and couldn't quite get it back together right, 4 or 5 reloading manuals and sometimes an Evil Cat.
But yeah, things look a little different since Lisa moved in - a table cloth, candles around when there's no danger of a power outage, funny smelling soaps (plural, more than one) and an assortment of oddly shaped towels in the bathroom that I better keep my grubby hands off of, pillows that we take off the bed before we retire for the evening, and flowers on the table instead of my 22-250.
But the decor for the most part hasn't changed. My barbed wire displays are still up, 3 or 4 cowboy hats scattered around the house, my Camouflaged Bass Pro Easy Chair is still in the living room, and my books are still in the shelves. The essentials - my Git Kit and coyote trappins - are still in the living room piled in the corner next to the safe ready to grab and go, and CharlieGodammit is at my feet destroying yet another rawhide bone.
I am however grumbling about having to clean my firearms and fish outside.

Better than shooting trap

A young man from the city went to visit his farmer uncle. For the first few days, the uncle showed him the usual things - chickens, cows, crops, etc. After three days, however, it was obvious that the nephew was getting bored, and the uncle was running out of things to amuse him with.
Finally, the uncle had an idea. "There's no one around for miles, why don't you grab a gun, take the dogs, and go shooting?" This seemed to cheer the nephew up, and off he went, dogs in trail.
That afternoon, the nephew returned. "How did you enjoy that?" asked the uncle.
"It was great!" exclaimed the nephew. "Got any more dogs?"

South Dakota Court Asked To Reinstate Prairie Dog Lawsuit

PIERRE, S.D. (AP) — Dozens of ranchers asked the South Dakota Supreme Court on Monday to reinstate their lawsuit seeking state compensation for damage from prairie dogs.
Ranchers in an area near Badlands National Park claim they lost money when prairie dogs spread from the public land to their property, destroying wheat fields and pastures. The lawyer for three dozen of them, James Hurley of Rapid City, said state law clearly requires state officials to control prairie dogs that have moved onto private land and to set up a way to compensate landowners for damage if the animals spread beyond specific acreage limits.
But the state didn't do enough to control the prairie dogs and hasn't paid the ranchers, Hurley said.
"This is awful. It's a financial disaster and it cries out for financial relief,'' Hurley told the Supreme Court.
But Douglas Abraham, a lawyer for the state, said a circuit judge was correct in throwing out the case because legal doctrine has established that the state is immune from such lawsuits unless it agrees to be sued.
"The state is also the only entity that can waive the immunity'' Abraham said.
The hearing at Dakota Wesleyan University in Mitchell was broadcast through the court's website. The court will issue a written decision later.
The ranchers live in an area around the Buffalo Gap National Grasslands and graze cattle on private land and pastures leased from the federal government. The prairie dog population expanded after controls were relaxed with the reintroduction of black-footed ferrets, a prairie dog-eating species once thought extinct. The area was chosen to reintroduce ferrets because it had a substantial prairie dog population.
Also, poisoning was restricted while federal officials considered listing prairie dogs as endangered or threatened. They eventually decided against listing the black-tailed prairie dog as endangered or threatened because the animals showed signs of rebounding from earlier population declines.

Liar Liar pants on fire!

BOSTON (CBS) — President Obama used the story of a Boston teacher to push his jobs bill Thursday, even though the teacher has a job.
At the beginning of his White House news conference, President Obama told a story of how he recently met Robert Baroz of Wellesley, an English teacher in the city.
“I had a chance to meet a young man named Robert Baroz. He’s an English teacher in Boston who came to the White House a few weeks ago. He’s got two decades of teaching experience. He’s got a Master’s Degree. He’s got an outstanding track record of helping his students make huge gains in reading and writing,” the president said.
“In the last few years, he’s received three pink slips because of budget cuts. Why wouldn’t we want to pass a bill that puts somebody like Robert back in the classroom teaching our kids?”
But, Baroz is working in the Boston Public Schools this year as a middle school English teacher.
On the D.O.E.’s web site, he writes that he’s also employed part-time as an English instructor at Mass Bay Community College.

From William, a man who appreciates fine pig

Lock and Load

HOLY SMOKE, LLC. (Out of Alabama)
After your loved ones die and are cremated, you have the option of shipping their ashes to Holy Smoke, LLC. The ashes are packed into 250 shotgun shells of ammunition. If you prefer rifle or pistol ammunition, this can be accommodated as well. The cost of the procedure is $850 and takes about 48 hours to complete.
The founders came up with the idea while they were on a hunting trip together. Their conversation drifted to how they would like to be buried when they died. They both agreed they didn’t want to be buried. Instead, they would like to be hunting somehow when one of them said their ashes should be put into ammunition and fired off as a final round, or 250 as it turns out.

99% of Hollywood could use this advice

Rep. Allen West (R-Fla.) has just one piece of advice for Samuel L. Jackson – focus on your film career and stop talking about politics.
“I think Samuel Jackson needs to pay more attention to the upcoming release of the movie ‘Avengers’ next summer and not [get] concerned with the politics and policies of the failed administration,” West said on Fox News Wednesday.
Jackson recently joined his Hollywood colleague Morgan Freeman in calling members of the tea party racist.
“I think everything right now is geared toward getting that guy out of office, whatever that means,” Jackson told New York Magazine. “It’s not politics. It is not economics. It all boils down to pretty much to race. It is a shame.”
Allen, the only Republican member of the Congressional Black Caucus and a tea party favorite, blasted the actor’s comments and accused him of losing sight of more important issues like the high jobless rate among the country’s African-American community.
“Samuel L. Jackson, I guess, disregards the 16.7 percent unemployment rate in the black community, a 20 percent unemployment rate for black adult males and a 45-46 percent unemployment for black teenagers,” the Florida Republican said. “I think the racism that he is talking about is coming out of the White House and this administration.”
West warned Jackson against using the tea party movement as a “scapegoat,” insisting that conservatives are trying to fix the economy and turn around the unemployment numbers in the black community.
The perfect example? Herman Cain.
West said the Republican presidential candidate “negates” the recent comments by Jackson and Freeman.
“I think that what you’re seeing with Herman Cain is someone that is against the tide. He is not a career politician, he is coming forth with common sense solutions with what is happening in our country,” he said

25% off choke tubes

Hey, I get a shitload of email from outdoors shops, ammo wholesalers, predator clubs, shit like that. I mean, I'm on everybodys' list. No biggie though, I figure I save lots of money that way buying stuff that I wouldn't have realized I needed if these kind folks hadn't pointed it out.
A good example is coyote calls. I've got at least 2 dozen mouth calls - if I heard something good about it, that motherfucker's mine. How many do I actually use? Four. I never hunt without those four, they cover all my needs. But I got some bad-ass calls hanging on my call wall.
Anyways, I got this in the mail today and figured I'd pass it on to you folks. I can't vouch for the tube seeing as my shotguns are so ancient that don't have interchangable chokes. Fuck, my favorite shotgun is my 870 Wingmaster that I got for my 15th Christmas.
Godammit, I'm wandering again.......
Anyways, go to their website and check it out.

Come on, 2012!

Herman, the token white guy at the party, soon realized he was the butt of a cruel prank.

One from the archives

A certain zoo had acquired a very rare species of goat. Within a few weeks the goat, a female, became very ornery, and difficult to handle. Upon examination, the zoo veterinarian determined the problem: she was in heat. What to do? There was no male of this species available. While reflecting on their problem, the zoo administrators noticed Okie Joe, an employee responsible for cleaning the animals' cages.
Now Okie Joe, it was rumored, possessed ample ability to satisfy any female, and he wasn't very bright. So the zoo administrators thought they might have a solution. Perhaps they could entice Joe to satisfy the female goat. So he was approached with a proposition: would he be willing to screw the goat--for five hundred bucks?
Joe replied that he might be interested, but would have to think the matter over. The following day, Joe announced that he would accept their offer, but only under three conditions: "First," he said, "I don't want to have to kiss her," and "Second, I want nothing to do with any offspring that may result from this union."
The zoo administration quickly acceded to these conditions, but what could be the third?
"Well," said Joe, "You've gotta give me another week to come up with the five hundred bucks."

Three Firsts in a row!!! Woo-Hoo!!!

It's supposed to rain drizzle here pretty good in the next couple of days, the first rain mist we've seen in about 6 months, and mine and everybody elses' windshield wiper blades have rotted off over the summer.
This started a day of Firsts for me.

I went to the parts store and bought blades before the rains clouds and therefore beat the rush. That's the First Time in my 30 some odd years of driving I've ever did that.
I bought the right ones the first time, saving me a trip back to the parts store. Another First.
I installed them correctly, without flinging one across the street and rendering it useless, again saving me my customary repeat trips to the parts store. Score First #3.
I decided fuck it, why press my luck and hit my Camouflage Bass Pro Easy Chair for the rest of the day.

My 2 cents worth on the killing of Anwar al-Awlaki

All I've been hearing lately about is this awlaki dude - whether the Obamessiah did a righteous thing or did he murder an American citizen without due process blah blah blah.
He may have been an American citizen at one time, but his citizenship was renounced/revoked when he took up arms against the US and when he became a leader in an organization hostile to the US. Straight up fact.
So when he was killed, he was just another enemy combatant.
I'm sidin' with the black dude on this one.

Couldn't have been that great a bill if the dems won't pass it either

Obama's jobs bill falls to pieces in Congress

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Barack Obama's job-creation package effectively fell to pieces on Monday as a top Republican lawmaker said the House of Representatives will only pass portions of the $447 billion measure.
As Obama continued to press lawmakers for a vote on his signature legislation, Representative Eric Cantor, the No. 2 House Republican, said that was not going to happen.
Asked if the bill as a complete package was dead, Cantor said: "Yes."
The bill appeared to be in trouble in the Democratic-controlled Senate as well, where aides from both parties said it will likely fail when it comes up for a vote later this month.

Your shit's starting to come back on you now, huh?

Calling himself an "underdog," President Obama today said the faltering economy is a drag on his presidency and seriously impairing his chances at winning again in 2012.

"Absolutely," he said to a question by ABC News' George Stephanopoulos about whether the odds were against him come November 2012, given the economy. "I'm used to being the underdog. But at the end of the day people are going to ask -- who's got a vision?

The American people, he conceded, are "not better off" than they were four years ago.
"The unemployment rate is way too high," he said of the 9 percent jobless rate, the highest in half a century.

The race card just got trumped

Excerpts from an article at Big Government

New photographs obtained exclusively by BigGovernment.com reveal that Barack Obama appeared and marched with members of the New Black Panther Party as he campaigned for president in Selma, Alabama in March 2007.
The photographs, captured from a Flickr photo-sharing account before it was scrubbed, are the latest evidence of the mainstream media’s failure to examine Obama’s extremist ties and radical roots.
In addition, the new images raise questions about the possible motives of the Obama administration in its infamous decision to drop the prosecution of the Panthers for voter intimidation.
The images, presented below, also renew doubts about the transparency of the White House’s guest logs–in particular, whether Panther National Chief Malik Zulu Shabazz is the same “Malik Shabazz” listed among the Obama administration’s early visitors.



Obama seems not to be reviled by the Panthers in any of the video or photographs. And Obama’s own campaign website would post an endorsement by the New Black Panther Party in March 2008. As Adams writes in Injustice:
Somehow, the fact that the future President of the United States shared a podium with leaders of the New Black Panthers, marched with them, and received a public, formal greeting from their party has vanished from the history of Obama’s campaign. Apart from [Juan] Williams’ single dispatch, no other media outlets ever reported it.
After NPR initially reported that the Panthers were present at the event with Obama, subsequent reports from Selma omitted any mention of the hate group appearing with the future President.
Had any of Obama’s opponents appeared at an event with the KKK or Aryan Nation, The New York Times would have had to double its ink buy.
Obama’s appearance does much more than expose mainstream media hypocrisy. It also exposes an association between a vile racist organization and a future President of the United States. Only the degree of association is subject to debate.
And only a few voices outside the mainstream media have continued to press the Obama administration about its past and present ties to fringe groups.
I have been calling for the White House to disclose which Malik Shabazz visited the private White House residence on July 25, 2009, two months after the DOJ voter intimidation case was dismissed. So far, the White House has refused to do so, leaving open the question of which “Malik Shabazz” appears in visitor logs released to the public.
To reiterate: nobody, including Adams, is suggesting that Obama is a secret member of the New Black Panther Party. At a minimum, however, the events in Selma expose the media double standard that has buried this story until this week.
The mainstream media should ask Obama a few questions before they rush to his defense:
What did he and Malik Zulu Shabazz say when they conversed that day–something that Shabazz has said happened?
Did the Obama campaign play any role in having the Panthers travel to support his presidential ambitions?
Who posted the Panthers’ endorsement on the Obama campaign’s website, and at whose instructions?
Who–finally–was the Malik Shabazz who visited the White House residence on July 25, 2009?

Hang on Sloopy, Sloopy hang on!

A Texas woman told her neighbor recently that she saw a man driving a pickup down the interstate, and a dog was hanging onto the tailgate for dear life.
She said if the pick-up truck driver hadn't been going so fast in the other direction, she would have tried to stop him. 
A few weeks later, her neighbor saw the truck in the photo below at the local Bass Pro Shop. 
The pick-up truck driver is a taxidermist with a great sense of humor. (Taxidermists are a twisted lot anyway.
And it’s not a dog..... it’s a coyote.

Can you imagine how many people tried to stop this guy?

Fumblefingers

Okie Joe's working at the lumberyard, pushing a plank through the buzz saw, and accidentally shears off all ten of his fingers. He goes to the emergency room. The doctor says, "Yuck! Well, give me the fingers, and I'll see what I can do."
Okie Joe says, "I haven't got the fingers."
The doctor says, "What do you mean, you haven't got the fingers? It's 2008. We've got microsurgery and all kinds of incredible techniques. I could have put them back on and made you like new. Why didn't you bring the fingers?"
Okie Joe says, "Well shit, Doc, I couldn't pick 'em up."

CharlieGodammits' play date

One of the women that lives up the street stopped and introduced herself. I had seen her around over the years, even talked with her once when me and CharlieGodammit was coming back from the liquor store one night, but we didn't really know each other.
But tonight she stopped, introduced herself and we started talking about the dogs and next thing we know, she's headed home to get her dog so him and CGD can play.
That was fucking weird.
I was worried about how CGD was going to react having a male dog in his yard but after the intial "Fuck you, this is my sandbox", they got along fine.

First the dick sniffing:

After that, the shit was on.
Finally, after they ran themselves ragged CharlieGodammit and Luke decided to take a break and grab a cold one.


You didn't see this coming, Obama? Now the cross-dressers and trannys want in.


With homosexuals now able to serve openly in the military, the gay rights movement’s next battleground is to persuade the Obama administration to end the armed forces’ ban on “transgenders,” a group that includes transsexuals and cross-dressers.
“Our position is that the military should re-examine the policy, the medical regulations, so as to allow open service for transgender people,” said Vincent Paolo Villano, spokesman for the 6,000-member Center for Transgender Equality.
The Servicemembers Legal Defense Network (SLDN), which pushed to end the military’s gay ban, is urging President Obama to sign an executive order prohibiting discrimination based on “gender identity.”
It had wanted the order to happen on Sept. 20, the official date “don’t ask, don’t tell,” as the gay ban was called, ended via repeal legislation signed by Mr. Obama.
SLDN’s goal is contained on a Web page with the headline, “Working toward transgender military service.” The page states that a decision to remove the ban must be made at the Pentagon. “Relationships between transgender organizations, medical associations, and military allies will be crucial for advancing this issue,” it says.
“SLDN will continue to urge President Obama to issue an executive order to prohibit discrimination and harassment in the military based upon sexual orientation and gender identity, and we will work closely with our allies to educate and create greater awareness of this inequity,” SLDN spokesman Zeke Stokes said.

Blaming and fingerpointing again

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama sharply rebuked his Republican rivals, saying anyone who wants to be commander in chief must support the entire U.S. military, including gay service members.
“You want to be commander in chief? You can start by standing up for the men and women who wear the uniform of the United States, even when it’s not politically convenient,” Obama said during remarks at the annual dinner of the Human Rights Campaign, the nation’s largest gay rights organization.

In short, these people, with Barack Obama first among them, are arch-criminals. Obama himself is one of the greatest criminals in all of human history. He has illegally usurped the single most powerful office on the planet. He has illegally and fraudulently insinuated himself into the office of Chief Executive of the largest, most powerful economy in all of human history by orders of magnitude, an economy so large and so powerful that its inevitable collapse will affect nearly every person on the planet in a tangibly negative way. He has also criminally commandeered the most powerful military force the world has ever known – also by orders of magnitude. He has hijacked a military arsenal that has the capacity to kill most of the people on this planet. He has also used his criminally-acquired power to destabilize an entire region and culture and foment what will probably become the first truly nuclear world war, centered on Israel and Iran, in which the death toll will be ultimately counted in the hundreds of millions. The scope of this crime is so large that it is difficult for the human mind to grasp it.

700 arrested after protest on NY's Brooklyn Bridge

NEW YORK (AP) — More than 700 protesters demonstrating against corporate greed, global warming and social inequality, among other grievances, were arrested Saturday after they swarmed the Brooklyn Bridge and shut down a lane of traffic for several hours in a tense confrontation with police.
The group Occupy Wall Street has been camped out in a plaza in Manhattan's Financial District for nearly two weeks staging various marches, and had orchestrated an impromptu trek to Brooklyn on Saturday afternoon. They walked in thick rows on the sidewalk up to the bridge, where some demonstrators spilled onto the roadway after being told to stay on the pedestrian pathway, police said.
The majority of those arrested were given citations for disorderly conduct and were released, police said.
