Hey, I ain't REAL stupid, ya know.
From the archives:
A famous art collector is walking through the city when he notices a mangy cat lapping milk from a saucer in the doorway of a store and he does a double take. He recognizes that the saucer is extremely old and very valuable, so he walks casually into the store and offers to buy the cat for two dollars. The store owner replies “I'm sorry, but the cat isn't for sale.”
The collector says, “Please, I need a hungry cat around the house to catch mice. I'll pay you twenty dollars for that cat.”
And the owner says “Sold,” and hands over the cat.
The collector continues, “Hey, for the twenty bucks I wonder if you could throw in that old saucer. The cat's used to it and it'll save me from having to get a dish.”
And the owner says, “Sorry buddy, but that's my lucky saucer. So far this week I've sold sixty-eight cats.”

Give me a break, guys.
My first poll asked 'When you masturbate do you A) use a jizz rag, or B) let that shit fly' and in 24 hours had less than a hundred participants (in the poll, not a huge mutual masturbation fest) in 24 hours. The current poll asks what your choice of automatics you prefer and in 18 hours there's 140 participants.
Do you honestly expect me to believe that more of my male readers shoot than beat off?

Time to update
Well, the temps have dropped to the lower 30s here at night with colder temps to follow - time to update the Git Kit.
Poncho liner out, more calories and thermals in, more extra socks, sub-zero sleeping bag (I'd rather unzip than be cold) strapped to the bottom of the pack in a waterproof bag, tent and parka alongside for a quick grab.
Winter hunting/shooting gloves, a can of waterproofing for touch-ups, and an extra can of fuel. Extra stocking caps. Handwarmer and fuel.
And if I have room somewhere I'll grab the dirty bedsheet behind the frontseat of the truck in case I get hung up somewhere that winter camo is needed.

The economy's so fucked even the illegals are staying home
MEXICALI, Mexico (WaPo) — Arrests of illegal migrants trying to cross the southern U.S. border have plummeted to levels not seen since the early 1970s, according to tallies released by the Department of Homeland Security last week, a historic shift that could reshape the debate over immigration reform.
The Border Patrol apprehended 327,577 illegal crossers along the U.S.-Mexico border in fiscal year 2011, which ended Sept. 30, numbers not seen since Richard Nixon was president, and a precipitous drop from the peak in 2000, when 1.6 million unauthorized migrants were caught. More than 90 percent of the migrants apprehended on the southwest border are Mexican.
The number of illegal migrants arrested at the border has been dropping over the past few years but appears to be down by more than 25 percent this year.

Use a siren to locate coyotes
Stop calling blindly. Use a siren to locate coyotes for your next hunt.
Rumbling across the vast, wide-open prairies of eastern Montana in a four-wheel drive can be intimidating. There’s so much country, you can almost see forever. Somewhere in the sagebrush, grasslands, deep cuts or big open flats, there are usually coyotes. Figuring out where they are to set up for calling is the biggest problem hunters face in wide-open country. You can do a lot of unproductive blind calling if you don’t have a good idea where to start.Luckily, coyotes in the wild are much like the dogs in town. When police or fire sirens blast in town, dogs will often bark at them. When coyote hunters blast a siren, coyotes bark and howl at them, too.
It’s a good way to learn how many coyotes are in the area. In fact, state wildlife agencies sometimes use sirens to census coyote populations. For a hunter setting up to do calling, a siren is a valuable tool. He can go into an area he’s never been before, hit the siren, locate them and then move in to call.
In the old days, hunters would get old police and fire sirens, pop the hood on their vehicle, and touch the wires to their batteries to set them off. Today’s hunters have more options, and much easier to use.
There are two types of sirens and both are portable. One is a long-range siren that reaches about four miles. Then there is the mini-siren. The mini is more practical for most areas, with a range of one to two miles. We like the mini-siren because we can hear the coyote answer. If they’re out four miles, you can’t hear them, and being able to hear the coyote reply is the object.
How Effective? Sometimes, Too Well.
We’ve had coyotes come in just to the siren. Why they do that, I don’t know, but it happens. If we’re checking an area during the day where we think coyotes are close, we’ll take our rifles with us, and set up before we blast the siren. My hunting partner, Merv Griswold, and I often go out in the late evenings and use the siren to locate coyotes for the following day. There’s still enough daylight left to see, but not enough to shoot. When we hear a coyote answer, if we’re close to the vehicle, we jump in and get out of there fast. You don’t want them to see you. You can destroy the setup by having the coyote answer and then come in to you. Just come back the following morning. Simply put, sirens work great night or day, and can be effectively used at either time.Basic Siren Strategy
We’ll get on a high point so we can see a good distance, as the sound will carry well. If we’re on flat terrain, we get up on the vehicle to give us a little advantage. Any high elevation will allow you to hear better.If there are a couple of hunters, one guy gets a good distance away so he can hear while the siren is going. If you’re by yourself, a coyote might answer and you won’t hear it because the siren is still going. I would strongly recommend the person running the siren wear earplugs. It’s a very loud sound. As you get some distance away from it, the sound isn’t so bad. One caller looks one way, the other in the opposite direction. If there are three hunters, we cover three directions. Human hearing is directional, so there is an advantage to having more than one set of ears.
Selecting the correct point to siren from is fairly critical. If it’s a big, long drainage or canyon, commonly found out West, you want to be at the head of the drainage. The best advice is to use your siren just as if you’re setting up to do some calling. Have the vehicle out of sight. If coyotes come up to a ridge, you don’t want them to spot the vehicle.
Remember, coyotes only answer a siren once. They might carry on for a long time in their answering, but they won’t answer a second time. The more coyotes in an area, the better the siren works. One group will answer, then another. Soon, they’ll be talking to each other. That’s the best.
If you hear a coyote, the rule of thumb is that it’s twice as far away as you think it is. The ability to determine how far away the sound is coming from is something gained from experience.
You can hear coyotes answer out to three to five miles, depending on the day.
When wind is blowing, we have very little success. Windless days or those with little wind are best. Usually in early morning and evening, the wind dies down and it’s prime times for locating coyotes with sirens.
A Good Set-Up Is Essential
If you’re out in the early morning and it’s breaking daylight, be sure to have a really good binocular. Often, even if the coyote doesn’t answer, it’ll come to a ridge top just to investigate where the sound is coming from. Also, realize that it may take a while for the coyote to get to the ridgetop. Glass all the ridges around you.The results of the first siren blast will inform what you do next. After the initial blast, and if we don’t get an answer, one hunter can answer the siren with a coyote howl. After about five minutes, the other hunter answers him with a howl of a different pitch. It sounds like a pair of coyotes answering each other. You might carry on for two or three howls. Often, that will kick a coyote into answering.
Once coyotes answer and you know where they are, it’s up to you to do a good job of calling and bringing them in. If you call and nothing comes in, carefully move closer to where you think the coyote that responded was and start calling again.
Another word of advice: if you get a response to the siren, and don’t have a good setup on the coyote, it’s better to leave the area and come back in a different spot and then try to work the animal. You must have a good setup. When you don’t have a good setup, leave and come back another day.
You can use a siren all year long and use it throughout the day. It won’t scare coyotes out of an area, but as is the in hunting for any species, coyotes quickly get wise to such tactics. If you and perhaps other hunters have used sirens repeatedly in the same area, the coyotes will quit answering. That’s especially true during the day. They might answer more readily at night, but don’t count on it. A siren is a very effective one-shot tool, so use it wisely.
Make Sure Sirens Are Legal
The siren really works great when pups are up out of the den, because pups answer immediately. You can usually tell when the adults get back to the den. They’ll make the youngsters stop answering. The ability to get pups to answer is extremely valuable when undertaking predator control for a rancher or farmer.As in all coyote hunting, patience is your greatest ally. Go through your siren blasts, go through your coyote howls—even siren-shy coyotes will answer a howl—but be sure to give the coyotes enough time to answer and give away their location.
Sirens extend a coyote hunter’s reach when the dogs are out there a long way. Some answer fast—some slower. Use your ears and binocular. Locating coyotes first gives you a big advantage in calling.
One final word on the use of sirens—check local regulations and with your state authorities on siren use. If you’re hunting on private land, let the landowner know what you’re doing. If you go out at night and blow a siren near a rancher’s house, you’re going to see the lights go on and that might be the only action that happens. No matter how effective a siren might be, disturbing a rancher’s sleep or scaring him during the day is no way to get invited back to hunt coyotes.

You can order your own siren at the same place I got mine for a whopping 15 bucks. If you get bored using it on coyotes you can always use it on unsuspecting drunk drivers.

The cable guy is here! The cable guy is here!
After a year without TV service I (Miss Lisa) decided that with the specials they've been offering we can actually save money on our AT&T bill by having satellite TV hooked back up.
I'm still not sure I understand her sense of reasoning here - installing the cable makes the price the price of the internet go way down when it's bundled - but hey! I've been without Predator Quest for almost a year now.
And it'll be nice to be able to catch my Right Wing terrorist news without having to stay online all day.

No! The Obamessiah taking a vacation?????
The Obamas will enjoy a 17 day holiday vacation this year.
On Saturday, December 17th, 2011, the President will travel to Honolulu, Hawaii. He will return to Washington, DC on Monday, January 2nd, 2012… No public events are scheduled during the trip.
Happy Holidays.
It used to be that I got pissed when I heard that the African was taking yet another vacation, bitching and complaining about all the taxpayers' money being wasted so he can take a vacation from spending money.
Now I look at it like the time I woke up to find an ex girlfriend rifling through my wallet while I slept, with her bags fully packed at her side. My first reaction was to jump up and knock her ass out like I would any other thief, but then I realized it would be cheaper in the long run just to pretend I was still asleep and let her go.
So, Barack and Mooch and girls, go and have a good time. At least while you're there you ain't fucking shit up too bad here.

It's official: Viva Calexico!!!
Mr Fuentes is doing an admirable job in protecting his border brothers and advancing reconquista except that illegal immigration is a federal offense and I don't think that Kalifornia has the authority to override federal law. Not that the feds are doing a fucking thing about the foreign invaders......
And only a million? There's a shitload more than that here. Mr Fuentes needs to quit softening up his figures.
Initiative would let illegal immigrants work in Calif. legally
SACRAMENTO, Calif.-Nearly 1 million undocumented immigrants could live and work openly in California with little or no fear of deportation under an initiative unveiled Friday by a state legislator and others.
Assemblyman Felipe Fuentes, a Democrat, is helping spearhead the measure, called the California Opportunity and Prosperity Act.
The proposal was filed Friday with the state Attorney General's Office, marking a first step toward a drive to collect the 504,760 voter signatures needed to qualify for the ballot.
Fuentes called the measure a "moderate, common-sense approach" necessitated by the federal government's inability to pass comprehensive immigration reform.
"I hope this shows Washington, D.C., that if they fail to act, California will take the lead on this critical issue," Fuentes said in a written statement.
Supporters say the initiative could generate up to $325 million in new tax revenue from undocumented workers that could assist education, public safety and other state programs.
Regardless whether Californians would support such a measure, implementation would depend upon the federal government agreeing not to prosecute participants.
Assemblyman Tim Donnelly, a Republican, blasted the proposal as an attempt to sidestep immigration law. He predicted that it wouldn't have a "snowball's chance in hell" of winning voter approval.
"There's a proper process for coming to this country," Donnelly said. "Why don't you respect that?"
The proposed initiative would apply to illegal immigrants who have lived in California for four years, have no felony convictions, are not suspected terrorists, pay a fee to administer the program, and can speak English or are learning it.

New Gun Company Advertisement Compares Obama to Hitler, Stalin
WASHINGTON, D.C. (CBS Washington) — A gun company advertisement that warns of impending gun control compares President Obama to Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin.
The USAAmmo ad shows side-by-side pictures of Obama with Hitler, Stalin and other dictators who committed atrocities across the world. The ad, which is also accompanied by a video, warns that gun control is imminent and foreshadows that the U.S. could face millions in casualties if they are not allowed to defend themselves.
USAAmmo states that “tyranny is knocking down the doors of American cities daily” and that Obama, Attorney General Eric Holder and other gun control advocates “are secretly conspiring American Citizens of the right to bear arms.”
Trace Williams, director of operations for USAAmmo, defended the ad that was emailed Monday. He told CBS Washington that “Obama and his various czars are infringing on the rights of Americans to own guns.”
“He’s anti-gun and he’s obviously a socialist cramming health care down American’s throats,” Williams said. “That is exactly how those people in that ad rose to power.”
Williams told CBS Washington that he doesn’t regret comparing Obama to those dictators and that his company has received “unbelievable support” since the ad was put out.
“Just look at history. Obama’s socialist agenda is geared toward depriving American citizens of their God-given rights.” He also added that sales have gone “through the roof.”
Obama promised stricter gun control laws following the January Tucson shooting where Rep. Gabby Giffords was seriously injured and six others were killed.
CBS Washington has reached out to the White House for comment.

It's bad when Hollywood is turning on you
He may have been the voice of reason for thousands of lost teens, but former "Loveline" host Adam Carolla is blasting the Occupy Wall Street crowd for being self-entitled and coddled.
In an expletive-laced rant on a November podcast, the comedian and shock jock says the movement was the result of raising young people to believe they were the best.
"We are now dealing with the first waves of participation trophies ... ‘I feel so f--- good about myself. Everybody's a winner, no one's a loser.’ We're dealing with the first wave of those," he said.
He argued that the nation’s wealth disparity wasn’t the effect of laws favoring corporations and the rich but the result of people working harder or being more gifted than others.
"There's something coming up in this country that didn't used to exist, and it's envy," he said.
He then took aim at the protesters, saying they don’t really want jobs.
"They've been shamed by life because they haven't been prepared for life. They've had so much smoke blown up their collective a----, by the time they get out in the real world and they realize the real world doesn't give a f--- where you're from or what your mommy said you were or how pretty you are."
Carolla is one of the first celebrities to come out against the movement, which has seen a variety of drop-bys from A-list supporters including Kanye West, Russell Simmons and Katy Perry.
And in case you have a few minutes to kill, here's the video.
Yeah! Learned something today, huh?

Granny's shit's flaky. Time to re-write the will.
A little blue-haired lady calls her neighbor and says "Please come over here and help me. I have a killer jigsaw puzzle, and I can't figure out how to get started." Her neighbor asks "What is it supposed to be when it's finished?" The little silver haired lady says "According to the picture on the box, it's a rooster."
Her neighbor decides to go over and help with the puzzle. She lets him in and shows him where she has the puzzle spread all over the table. He studies the pieces for a moment, then looks at the box, then turns to her and says "First of all, no matter what we do, we're not going to be able to assemble these pieces into anything resembling a rooster." He takes her hand and says "Secondly, I want you to relax. Let's have a nice cup of tea and then" ....he said with a deep sigh.... "and then let's put all the Corn Flakes back in the box."
Golly, who saw this one coming?
Senate Poised to Legalize Sodomy and Bestiality in U.S. Military
(CNSNews.com) – The Senate this evening is poised to vote on a defense authorization bill that includes a provision which not only repeals the military law on sodomy, but also repeals the military ban on sex with animals--or bestiality.
On Nov. 15, the Senate Armed Services Committee unanimously approved S. 1867, the National Defense Authorization Act, which includes a provision to repeal Article 125 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ).
Article 125 of the UCMJ makes it illegal to engage in both sodomy with humans and sex with animals.
It states: "(a) Any person subject to this chapter who engages in unnatural carnal copulation with another person of the same or opposite sex or with an animal is guilty of sodomy. Penetration, however slight, is sufficient to complete the offense. (b) Any person found guilty of sodomy shall be punished as a court-martial may direct.”
Family Research Council President Tony Perkins said the effort to remove sodomy from military law stems from liberal Senate Democrats' and President Obama’s support for removing the military’s Don’t Ask Don’t Tell policy.
“It’s all about using the military to advance this administration’s radical social agenda,” Perkins told CNSNews.com. “Not only did they overturn Don’t Ask Don’t Tell, but they had another problem, and that is, under military law sodomy is illegal, just as adultery is illegal, so they had to remove that prohibition against sodomy.”
Perkins said removing the bestiality provision may have been intentional--or just “collateral damage”
“Well, whether it was inadvertent or not, they have also taken out the provision against bestiality,” he said. “So now, under the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ), there’s nothing there to prosecute bestiality."
Former Army Col. Bob Maginnis said some military lawyers have indicated that bestiality may be prosecutable under another section of the military code of justice – the “catch-all” Article 134 for offenses against “good military order and discipline.”
But don't count on that, he said.
“If we have a soldier who engages in sodomy with an animal – whether a government animal or a non-government animal – is it, in fact, a chargeable offense under the Uniform Code? I think that’s in question,” Maginnis told CNSNews.com.
“When the reader stops laughing, the reader needs to ask the question whether or not this is in the best interests of the government, in the best interests of the military and the best interests of the country? I think not.”
He added: “Soldiers, unfortunately, like it or not, have engaged in this type of behavior in the past. Will they in the future, if they remove this statute? I don’t know.”
The Senate will vote Thursday evening on the bill. Perkins said there has been no attempt to remove the UCMJ repeal provision from the bill, which Perkins expects to pass the Senate.
Once passed, however, the Senate version will have to go to a conference committee, and Perkins predicts there will be several sticking points with the House.
“The House in their version of the defense authorization, reinforced the Defense of Marriage Act, saying that there is a military DOMA as well, prohibiting same-sex marriage on military bases – something the Department of Defense is pushing for,” he said.
“And now this is an added concern, that sodomy has been removed, and as we have discovered, that bestiality--the prohibition against it--has been removed from the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So yes, the House will have problems with this bill.”

Penetration, however slight, is sufficient to complete the offense. (b) Any person found guilty of sodomy shall be punished as a court-martial may direct.”
Family Research Council President Tony Perkins said the effort to remove sodomy from military law stems from liberal Senate Democrats' and President Obama’s support for removing the military’s Don’t Ask Don’t Tell policy.
“It’s all about using the military to advance this administration’s radical social agenda,” Perkins told CNSNews.com. “Not only did they overturn Don’t Ask Don’t Tell, but they had another problem, and that is, under military law sodomy is illegal, just as adultery is illegal, so they had to remove that prohibition against sodomy.”
Perkins said removing the bestiality provision may have been intentional--or just “collateral damage”
“Well, whether it was inadvertent or not, they have also taken out the provision against bestiality,” he said. “So now, under the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ), there’s nothing there to prosecute bestiality."
Former Army Col. Bob Maginnis said some military lawyers have indicated that bestiality may be prosecutable under another section of the military code of justice – the “catch-all” Article 134 for offenses against “good military order and discipline.”
But don't count on that, he said.
“If we have a soldier who engages in sodomy with an animal – whether a government animal or a non-government animal – is it, in fact, a chargeable offense under the Uniform Code? I think that’s in question,” Maginnis told CNSNews.com.
“When the reader stops laughing, the reader needs to ask the question whether or not this is in the best interests of the government, in the best interests of the military and the best interests of the country? I think not.”
He added: “Soldiers, unfortunately, like it or not, have engaged in this type of behavior in the past. Will they in the future, if they remove this statute? I don’t know.”
The Senate will vote Thursday evening on the bill. Perkins said there has been no attempt to remove the UCMJ repeal provision from the bill, which Perkins expects to pass the Senate.
Once passed, however, the Senate version will have to go to a conference committee, and Perkins predicts there will be several sticking points with the House.
“The House in their version of the defense authorization, reinforced the Defense of Marriage Act, saying that there is a military DOMA as well, prohibiting same-sex marriage on military bases – something the Department of Defense is pushing for,” he said.
“And now this is an added concern, that sodomy has been removed, and as we have discovered, that bestiality--the prohibition against it--has been removed from the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So yes, the House will have problems with this bill.”

Anyways, it looks cool so I figured I'd make you look at it too.
What if the Constitution No Longer Applied?
What if the whole purpose of the Constitution was to limit the government? What if Congress’s enumerated powers in the Constitution no longer limited Congress, but were actually used as justification to extend Congress’s authority over every realm of human life? What if the president, meant to be an equal to Congress, has become a democratically elected, term-limited monarch? What if the president assumed everything he did was legal just because he’s the president? What if he could interrupt your regularly scheduled radio and TV programming for a special message from him? What if he could declare war on his own? What if he could read your emails and texts without a search warrant? What if he could kill you without warning?
What if the rights and principles guaranteed in the Constitution have been so distorted in the past 200 years as to be unrecognizable by the founders? What if the states were mere provinces of a totally nationalized and fully centralized government? What if the Constitution was amended stealthily, not by constitutional amendments duly passed by the states, but by the constant and persistent expansion of the federal government’s role in our lives? What if the federal government decided whether its own powers were proper and constitutional?
“What if sometimes to love your country, you had to alter or abolish the government?”
What if you needed a license from the government to speak, to assemble, or to protest the government? What if the right to keep and bear arms only applied to the government? What if posse comitatus—the law that prohibits our military from our streets—were no longer in effect? What if the government considered the military an adequate dispenser of domestic law enforcement? What if cops looked and acted like troops and you couldn’t distinguish the military from the police? What if federal agents could write their own search warrants in defiance of the Constitution? What if the government could decide when you weren’t entitled to a jury trial?What if the government could take your property whenever it wanted it? What if the government could continue prosecuting you until it got the verdict it wanted? What if the government could force you to testify against yourself simply by labeling you a domestic terrorist? What if the government could torture you until you said what the government wanted to hear? What if people running for president actually supported torture? What if the government tortured your children to get to you? What if the government could send you to your death and your innocence meant nothing so long as the government’s procedures were followed? What if America’s prison population, the largest in the world, was the result of a cruel and unusual way for a country to be free? What if half the prison population never harmed anyone but themselves?
What if the people had no rights except those the government chose to let them have? What if the states had no rights except to do as the federal government commanded? What if our elected officials didn’t really live among us, but all instead had their hearts and their homes in Washington, DC? What if the government could strip you of your rights because of where your mother was when you were born? What if the income tax was unconstitutional? What if the states were convinced to give up their representation in Congress? What if the government tried to ban you from using a substance older than the government itself? What if voting didn’t mean anything anymore because both political parties stand for Big Government?
What if the government could write any law, regulate any behavior and tax any event, the Constitution be damned? What if the government was the reason we don’t have a Constitution anymore? What if you could love your country but hate what the government has done to it? What if sometimes to love your country, you had to alter or abolish the government? What if Jefferson was right? What if that government is best which governs least? What if I’m right? What if the government is wrong? What if it is dangerous to be right when the government is wrong? What if it is better to perish fighting for freedom than to live as a slave? What if freedom’s greatest hour of danger is now?

Bad News: A Degenerate Kennedy Is Considering a Run For Bawney Fwank’s Congressional Seat…
(Boston Herald) — Middlesex prosecutor Joseph P. Kennedy III — widely seen as the best hope to carry the torch of the legendary family dynasty to a new generation — told the Herald last night he is leaving the door open to a run for Congress.
“I just haven’t had the time to give it any thought, the type of careful consideration that it requires,” Kennedy said outside Cambridge District Court. “I’ve always thought politics is an honorable profession. It demands that you give it careful thought before you jump into it. When I get the time to do that, I’ll think about it, but we’re not there yet.”
Kennedy — the son of former U.S. Rep. Joseph P. Kennedy II, grandson of Robert F. Kennedy and grandnephew of President John F. Kennedy — was one of several Democrats whose name has emerged as a possible contender for U.S. Rep. Barney Frank’s seat after the 16-term congressman announced his retirement two days ago.

Hippie abuse and my sitemeter
Ever since I gassed that hippie, my hits went way up from a little over 20,000 a month to just under 65,000 last month - 64,706 to be exact, most of that 64 Large all within one week. My daily hits leveled off double to what they were, averaging about 1800 a day.
This puts a great weight upon my shoulders. Now I feel like I need to do something else outrageous to keep you good folks entertained and my hits up but I gotta tell ya, hippie gassing is pretty fucking hard to beat, even for me. I mean, that was pretty much a once in a lifetime drill, ya know?
The trick is to keep it legal only if b-a-r-e-l-y so because bail money is gone forever and attorneys are, well, attorneys. Shit, I barely make the bills now at my day job and blogging doesn't even bring in enough to keep me in ammo, so anything arrestable is pretty much out. Plus I'd want to post it for y'all. That really puts a limit on things, if you know what I mean.
So bear with me, get used to the old Knuckledraggin, and hang in there. Something will pop up soon, it always does. Sigh.

Man Collapses In Shock After The Prostitute He Hired Turns Out To Be His Daughter
A married man who ordered a prostitute to a hotel room collapsed in shock after he answered the door to his own daughter.
Titus Ncube from Bulawayo’s Nkulumane 5 suburb in Zimbabwe, said he was so shocked at seeing his daughter that he fell to the ground.
The 20-year-old woman, who has not been named, was so upset she fled the hotel in tears.
Mr Ncube told the Zimbabwe News he was having marital problems and decided to take some comfort elsewhere so rented a hotel room – and hired the prostitute.
The father-of-three told Zimbabwe News: ‘I am sorry for what I did. I spoke to my wife and my daughter.
‘I apologised for my actions because I just wanted my family back.

Despotic Tyranny Makes It’s Next Move with the National Defense Authorization Act, S. 1867
Bill Authorizing Indefinite Detention of U.S. Citizens without charge or trial passes Senate.
If safeguarding our liberties could be viewed as a game on a chess board, we have just been checkmated by the power in D.C.
And few to none are even aware of what just happened or can care less what ramifications this will lead to.
The radical and Marxist Left in league with the Ruling Class of oligarchs in our country – using the springboard of “national security” are handing eager tyrants the very irons and shackles that they can use on any Americans this regime deems an ‘enemy’. Congress is about to grant Obama the power to use the military in order to detain any individuals, including American citizens, without trial or due process, indefinitely.

Protecting Eric Holder
Obama Admin Seals Records of Murdered Border Patrol Agent Implicated in Fast and Furious
And to think that Attorney General Eric Holder is getting testy about congressional calls for his resignation. After all, the Justice Department has nothing to hide, right?
- The Weekly Standard
And to think that Attorney General Eric Holder is getting testy about congressional calls for his resignation. After all, the Justice Department has nothing to hide, right?
The Obama Administration has abruptly sealed court records containing alarming details of how Mexican drug smugglers murdered a U.S. Border patrol agent with a gun connected to a failed federal experiment that allowed firearms to be smuggled into Mexico.The murder of a U.S. Border Patrol agent is related to the Justice Department willingly turning over thousands of guns to Mexican criminal gangs, and Obama administration is hiding information about his death from the public. Amazing.
This means information will now be kept from the public as well as the media. Could this be a cover-up on the part of the “most transparent” administration in history? After all, the rifle used to kill the federal agent (Brian Terry) last December in Arizona’s Peck Canyon was part of the now infamous Operation Fast and Furious. Conducted by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), the disastrous scheme allowed guns to be smuggled into Mexico so they could eventually be traced to drug cartels.

Gotta love Uncle Ted
Rock star and avid bow hunter Ted Nugent was being interviewed by a liberal journalist and animal rights activist.
The discussion came around to deer hunting.
The journalist asked, "What do you think is the last thought in the head of a deer before you shoot him? Is it, 'Are you my friend?', or is it 'Are you the one who killed my brother?'"
Nugent replied, "Deer aren't capable of that kind of thinking. All they care about is what am I going to eat next, who am I going to screw next, and can I run fast enough to get away. They are very much like the Democrats in Congress."
The interview ended.

Israeli Jericho Missiles Moving
28112011
Eyewitnesses report unusual movements of Israeli Jericho missiles according to World Net Daily’s Aaron Klein: Multiple eyewitnesses reported seeing Israeli military trucks in recent days transport and station large missiles at the periphery of Jerusalem and in locations inside the West Bank. The descriptions of the projectiles are consistent with the Jewish state’s mid-to-long range Jericho ballistic missiles.Here are know facts about the Jericho III from Wikipedia: The Jericho III is believed to have a three-stage solid propellant and a payload of 1,000 to 1,300 kg. It is possible for the missile to be equipped with a single 750 kg nuclear warhead or two or three low yield MIRVwarheads…the Jericho III gives Israel nuclear strike capabilities within the entire Middle East, Africa, Europe, Asia and almost all parts of North America, as well as within large parts of South America and North Oceania.
MissileThreat.com reports: The range of the Jericho 3 also provides an extremely high impact speed for nearby targets, enabling it to avoid any Anti-Ballistic Missile (ABM) defenses that may develop in the immediate region. This would be most valuable in the event of a first-strike from Iran or as defense against Iranian retaliation to an Israeli strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities. Israel pre-positioning these arms would be another indication of an imminent hot war.

No problem, Mocch-elle. We'll pick up the tab.
First lady Michelle Obama enjoyed a lovely evening at Co Co. Sala on F Street on Monday night. A Yeas & Nays source tells us she dined with seven friends for dinner and, of course, dessert -- which featured an edible chocolate sculpture and house-made artisanal chocolates by Chef Santosh Tiptur. We're told Obama's favorite savory was Chef Tiptur's Moroccan Swordfish Sliders with chermoula marinade, fennel salad, aged pecorino and hazelnut coffee dressing. The restaurant owners later posted to Twitter about their excitement of having her as a guest. "It was such an honor to have first lady Michelle Obama dine at Co Co. Sala last night. What an exciting and humbling experience!"
The Washington Examiner
And where did I dine last night?
At my lovely residence here in Modesto. I chose a savory bowl of minestroni soup opened and heated by the lovely Miss Lisa, along with a delightful french bread garlic toast, staying with my gritty day by using day old bread of course.
For dessert I was offered fresh pomegranite, grown on one of Modesto's very own properties, very tart and flavorful.
All courses were served with ice water or a store brand soft drink.
Sorry about such a poor showing for dinner folks, but I'm just following the Obamessiah's advice and living within my means. I wish the his old lady would do the same - live within our (the taxpayers') means.
But to be fair to Miss Lisa (because she's going to reading this later) I was offered steak and potatoes as well. I like soup and bread, what can I say?

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Police in Los Angeles and Philadelphia stormed Occupy Wall Street encampments under darkness Wednesday to arrest or drive out some of the longest-lasting protesters since crackdowns ended similar occupations across the country.Dozens of officers in riot gear flooded down the steps of Los Angeles City Hall just after midnight and started dismantling the two-month-old camp two days after a deadline passed for campers to leave the park. Officers in helmets and wielding batons and guns with rubber bullets converged on the park from all directions with military precision and began making arrests after several orders were given to leave.
The raid in Los Angeles came after demonstrators with the movement in Philadelphia marched through the streets after being evicted from their site. About 40 protesters were arrested after refusing to clear a street several blocks northeast of City Hall, Philadelphia Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey. They were lined up in cuffs and loaded on to buses by officers. Six others were arrested earlier after remaining on a street police that police tried to clear.
Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa raised public safety and health concerns in announcing plans for the eviction last week, while Philadelphia officials said protesters must clear their site to make room for a $50 million renovation project.

Millions of New Yorkers: FUCK YOU, OBAMA!!!!!
WARNING: Do Not Try To Drive In Manhattan This Afternoon
Consider yourselves warned. @GridlockSam, our favorite source of New York City traffic information, calls today "the gridlock alert day of the decade."
It's going to be a traffic nightmare today as President Barack Obama is in town for three fundraisers, coinciding with the annual lighting of the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree.
Obama is landing at JFK around 5 p.m., choppering in Marine One to Wall Street, and then attending three events in Greenwich Village, the Upper East Side, and West Midtown. Each neighborhood will be subject to a traffic freeze while the President is on the move. Plus, the area around Rockefeller Center will begin to be shut down around 4 p.m. for the tree lighting at 7 p.m.
In short, it's going to be a madhouse. Trains are going to be packed/delays, and many bus lines are being detoured/delayed too.

In case you don't hear from me again
I saw this over at Sipsey Street Irregulars this morning when I was getting my morning coffee and dose of Right Wing energy boost.
The comment at the bottom of the post belong to the Dutchman.
If you had told me even a month ago that I would be mirroring an ad from the DNC while praying for an Obama veto, I'd have said you were crazy.
Does anybody here seriously think that there is anything in this bill preventing the Obama White House from having the military kidnap troublesome guys like me, secretly, in the dead of night, putting black hoods on our heads, and taking them off to Guantanamo, without hearing or trial? Nothing will prevent it except one thing: the copper-jacketed promise that if the rule of law no longer obtains then the rule of the rifle has obviously begun. Unintended consequences? Perhaps. Stupid? Certainly. Possible? Oh, yes.

Defying a veto threat by President Obama, the Senate voted Tuesday to give the U.S. military first crack at holding al Qaeda operatives, even if they are captured in the U.S. and are American citizens, and also reaffirmed the policy of indefinite detention.
“We’re no longer going to have an absurd result that if we capture you overseas where you’re planning an attack on the United States, we can blow you up or put you in a military prison indefinitely, but if you make it to America, all of a sudden you get Miranda rights and you go to federal court,” said Sen. Lindsey Graham, a South Carolina Republican who has fought the Bush and Obama administrations on treatment of suspected terrorist detainees.
Tuesday’s 61-37 vote to buck Mr. Obama and grant the military dibs exposed a deep rift within the Democratic Party. Sixteen Democrats and one independent who caucuses with them defied the veto threat and joined 44 Republicans.

Fun with CharlieGodammit and my pyscho neighbor Bruce
My psycho neighbor Bruce came up tapping at the door and CharlieGodammit "answered" it for me.
I could tell it was Bruce before I even got up from the table because of the chanting that started from the front porch:
"I hate that dog, man, I hate that motherfucker. Put that motherfucker out back man, or I ain't comin' in. I don't want him to git me. I hate that damned dog. He keeps getting bigger and meaner every fucking day. He's mean even after you cut his balls off and then he got bigger. What do you do, give him steroids? I hate that dog......"
Lisa's laughing. "C'mon in, Bruce. He just wants to be your friend."
"I don't wanna be that motherfuckers' friend. I hate that dog. I know you love him but me? I hate that motherfucker. Steroids, I know that's what you're feeding him. He keeps getting bigger and meaner every fucking day......"

Rollory said...
"so I yelled at him to go find a fucking job and let me get home from mine. ...
comes over to my truck and then lays his hands on my door and starts to say something."
Fact #1: you initiated the conversation with him. He responded on precisely the same level you initiated. For that, you assaulted him. Yes, I initated the conversation with him but only after going through a full cycle of the light and traffic not moving because he was crossing back and forth, disrupting traffic - Lines 5 and 6 of the post, go back and read it again. And no, he didn't respond on the same level. The same level would've been yelling back. He escalated it by approaching me when I was more or less trapped in traffic. Line 11.
"Just as the light changed ... I didn't try to get away, I didn't try to hide, I just drove home."
Fact #2: by your own description, traffic was not being held up by the protesters, but rather by the stop light. The protesters were engaging in their Constitutionally recognized right to peaceably assemble to petition for a redress of grievances. Again, Lines 5 & 6. Read it again, s-l-o-w-l-y. As a matter of fact, go back and re-read the whole fucking post. Do it twice. I'm getting tired of pointing out shit that you conveniently missed or overlooked.
That LawEnforcement has not bothered you does not mean very much. They don't enforce laws anymore, they just enforce order, be it lawful or not. And they crack down on disorder - be it lawful or not. Funny, everytime I even look crosseyed, the cops are on my doorstep. I drive past a cop and he's on my ass.
And you? You're not an American. You don't even know the meaning of the word. You're just a bully.

Fact #1: you initiated the conversation with him. He responded on precisely the same level you initiated. For that, you assaulted him.
"Just as the light changed ... I didn't try to get away, I didn't try to hide, I just drove home."
Fact #2: by your own description, traffic was not being held up by the protesters, but rather by the stop light. The protesters were engaging in their Constitutionally recognized right to peaceably assemble to petition for a redress of grievances.
That LawEnforcement has not bothered you does not mean very much. They don't enforce laws anymore, they just enforce order, be it lawful or not. And they crack down on disorder - be it lawful or not.
And you?

See? We should just let them nuke themselves.
(Haaretz) — A explosion rocked the western Iranian city of Isfahan on Monday, the semi-official Fars news agency reported, adding that the blast was heard in several parts of the city.
The reported incident occurred about two weeks after Gen. Hasan Tehrani Moghaddam was killed together with 20 other Guard members Nov. 12 at a military site outside Bidganeh village, 40 kilometers southwest of Tehran.
The deputy governor of Iran’s Isfahan province on Monday said however he had no reports of an explosion in his region. “So far no report of a major explosion has been heard from any government body in Isfahan,” he was quoted as saying by the semi-official Mehr news agency.
It should be noted that Iran operates a uranium conversion plant near Isfahan, one with an important function in the chain of Iran’s nuclear program.
It first went into operation in 2004, taking uranium from mines and producing uranium fluoride gas, which then feeds the centrifuges that enrich the uranium.
Since 2004, thousands of kilograms of uranium flouride gas were stockpiled at Isfahan and subsequently sent to the enrichment plant in Natanz.

Obamessiah to abandon white working class voters
For decades, Democrats have suffered continuous and increasingly severe losses among white voters. But preparations by Democratic operatives for the 2012 election make it clear for the first time that the party will explicitly abandon the white working class.
All pretense of trying to win a majority of the white working class has been effectively jettisoned in favor of cementing a center-left coalition made up, on the one hand, of voters who have gotten ahead on the basis of educational attainment — professors, artists, designers, editors, human resources managers, lawyers, librarians, social workers, teachers and therapists — and a second, substantial constituency of lower-income voters who are disproportionately African-American and Hispanic.

Funny, but I never really felt like we were a part of his plan anyways - more like something to be shoved aside or pushed under the rug.
Oh well, no loss, no gain.

As an experienced woodsman I can give you one piece of advice:
If one shows interest in you, DO NOT run away. Face them and make yourself appear as large as possible.
CAMEL TOE!!!!!!
And what a fine example it is - fully visible from front to rear, with almost perfect symmetry.
I think I'll give her a 8.9 for this effort.
And Irish was kind enough to send the video in - you can view it at:
Poor baby.....
He's probably just pretending to cry so he can be portrayed as sensitive and caring so he can lose his virginity like that protester that got the shit kicked out of him a couple of weeks ago.
