Oh God, not Ford!

05.30.2005

It pains my heart to write this but it has to be said. Being the All American Ford-Lovin’ (although I drive a Dodge) Patriot that I am, I thought I should share this with you all. It is known that Ford makes a mean machine… my favorite car is the 74 Gran Torino. But it has come to my attention that Ford, as a company, is a liberal, gay lovin’, disgrace to the man Henry Ford. Here’s why:

You are probably unaware that Ford Motor Company is a major supporter of the homosexual movement, including homosexual marriage.

From redefining family to include homosexual marriage, to giving hundreds of thousands of dollars to support homosexual groups and their agenda, to forcing managers to attend diversity training on how to promote the acceptance of homosexuality, to sponsoring a “commitment (marriage) ceremony”, to sponsoring Gay Pride Parades, Ford leads the way.

To let you see Ford’s support, we developed the BoycottFord.com site.

OnemillionDads sent me this lil memo today. It brought a sorrowful tear to my eye. Call Ford and tell em you think their vehicles are great but their managment sucks. Do it for your country.

Memorial Day Thank You

05.30.2005

Memorial Day, originally called Decoration Day, is a day of remembrance for those who have died in our nation’s service. I’m just gonna post a few inspirational poems and stories about this special day.

Flanders Fields

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep,
though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

by John McCrae, May 1915

Michelle Malkin led me to this interesting read.

Excerpt…

So to the indifferent inquirer who asks why Memorial Day is still kept up we may answer, it celebrates and solemnly reaffirms from year to year a national act of enthusiasm and faith. It embodies in the most impressive form our belief that to act with enthusiam and faith is the condition of acting greatly. To fight out a war, you must believe something and want something with all your might. So must you do to carry anything else to an end worth reaching. More than that, you must be willing to commit yourself to a course, perhpas a long and hard one, without being able to foresee exactly where you will come out. All that is required of you is that you should go somewhither as hard as ever you can. The rest belongs to fate. One may fall-at the beginning of the charge or at the top of the earthworks; but in no other way can he reach the rewards of victory. More..

“Let us, then, at the time appointed, gather around their sacred remains and garland the passionless mounds above them with choicest flowers of springtime; let us raise above them the dear old flag they saved from dishonor; let us in this solemn presence renew our pledges to aid and assist those whom they have left among us as sacred charges upon the Nation’s gratitude,–the soldier’s and sailor’s widow and orphan.”

General John A. Logan in his General Order No. 11 of May 5th, 1868,
Decoration Day

Scott posted a thanks and a poem, over at his place.

“And When He Gets To Heaven,
To Saint Peter He Will Tell;
One More Soldier Reporting Sir,
I’ve Served My Time In Hell”

And for one more Greyhawk posted a nice poem for his memorial day post.
Tending Distant Fires

Be sure to thank any vets you know today. We can never repay them.

Scrollin’ thru the archives, I ran across this ol’ post, where our friend Guav was kind enough to use his talent for good in the universe. He produced this great T-shirt graphic for yours truely. As you can see it has been awhile since he made this, and it is completely my fault for forgetting about it on my mess of a computer. But I’m glad I ran across that post to remind me about it.

Well, here it is now. Hot off the T-shirt press.

As soon as I sell a couple more things in the store, I’ll be able to order mine. :cool:

Cap’t Say What?

05.28.2005

Alright, Stevil just posted this link in the forum, and it was so beautiful, that I get to share it with those who don’t ever make it into the forums.

Now, it may be just me… but does this not make complete and obvious sense??? (Aside from the armor piercing rounds part)

And the next step from there, is allow anyone with a CCW to be packing on the plane as well. If you fail to understand how much that would thwart evil bad people to kill us folks, then you must fail to understand alot of common sense. As anyone can tell you (except bleeding heart liberals) Europe is steeped in enough crime since they disarmed all good citizens, and left them defenseless against an armed assailant. They’re already talkin about banning “sharp and pointy knives“. Pathetic fools deserve all the crime they get. Don’t they understand that guns are not only good for saving your ass… but they’re just plain ol’ fun?

As Best of the Web put it,

One could argue that banning knives doesn’t go far enough, for the world is filled with other dangerous items. Consider this report, from the Bellingham (Wash.) Herald:

Two Bellingham residents were killed when a tree fell on and crushed their SUV as they drove southbound on Lake Whatcom Boulevard Sunday.

Didn’t Reagan warn us about trees? If we’re going to control guns and knives, doesn’t log-ic demand that we do something about these wooden weapons of mass destruction? Though of course the tree-huggers will object. We can just hear them now: “You can have my tree when you pry it from my cold, dead arms.”

Toxique sent me this link as well, and it is pretty disgusting how these terrorists think. Just start from the top link on the left, and make your way down.

A Real Spartacus

HOUSTON, Texas (AP) — A man who told undercover agents he has “no loyalty for America” has been charged with trying to build a bomb and sell it to an affiliate of al Qaeda, officials said Monday.

Ronald A. Grecula, 68, of Bangor, Pennsylvania., was arrested Friday in Houston during a meeting with undercover FBI agents, U.S. Attorney Michael Shelby said. At the meeting, Grecula indicated willingness to build and sell a bomb that would be used against Americans, officials alleged in court documents. Read Full Story

Washington is a “Stand Your Ground” State

05.22.2005

While it is always appropriate to retreat before using deadly force if safe to do so, Washington State has no statutory requirement to attempt to retreat before deadly force can be lawfully employed. Washington is a “stand your ground” state. For a detailed interpretation for what this might mean, be sure to contact a lawyer admitted to the Washington State bar.

Crazy Story: The Incident

05.20.2005

Setting: OfficeMax parking lot
Date: May 20th 2005
Characters: Old Man, Jared, Chad, and The Crazy Veteran.

Story: Today is my brother Jareds birthday. As we rolled into the OfficeMax parking lot in my old man’s F-350, he proceded to swing real wide into a parking spot. As he swung out we heard someone blowing their horn over and over. So he stopped. A little red car zipped between us and our parking spot and parked in a handycap zone. We curse him under our breath and continue to park.

We get out and begin walkin to the store. As I pass the guy while he climbs out, he appears to be an older feller with some dark shades on. While walkin by him, I casually say “Ya know, a one ton truck needs to swing wide to be able to park.” He retorted with some negative remark that I didn’t clearly hear. So my old man got in on it. Dad pretty much repeats what I already told him about big trucks needing to swing wide. The old guy walks to the passenger side of his car, reaches in the glove box, and pulls out a handgun. His wife is freaking out, and begging us to walk away. I gotta admit, I was completely on her side, being currently unarmed.

Things would have been fine, but this ol’ weasel was just lookin for a fight. And my old man was willing to take a bullet to give him that fight. Not exactly something I can say I’m real proud about, mind you. So my old man gets up to the guy and brainlessly decides to give this ol scutter a “tap”. More like a push, on the shoulder. And like anyone would expect, the barrel of his gun was now pointed right between my ol’ mans eyes.

Thats when voices get raised. I yell at the guy to put his gun away. He responds with “He assaulted me! He punched me! Yer under arrest!”. That pissed me off. So I called him a spineless pussy, and told him to put the gun away, and put up his fists like a real man.

Needless to say, he wasn’t up for that. So my dad keeps gettin closer to the guy while telling him to “go ahead and shoot me!”. The guy yells back “I’m a disabled Vet! I’ll blow your F—ing head off!”.

:idea: Walter! Hah! Thats it! This guy is just like Walter from the movie The Big Labowski!!!! I coulden’t believe it. I was laughin to myself, as I told the guy “Dude…. This isn’t Vietnam”.

So I told him he got exposed to a little too much Agent Orange, or somethin to that effect. And my dad says “This guy’s never set a foot in Vietnam”.

By now anyone out in the parking lot was running for cover, and a mom right behind the guy grabs all her kids and runs back into the store. And about 20 people call the CDA police dept.

I have to continually grab my old man by the jacket, to keep him from walkin any closer to the guy, while the guy kept screaming “I’m a veteran! Don’t come any closer! I’ll blow yer head off!”. Me and my brother break out our handy camera phones to get a picture of this clown with a Berretta .40 cal pointed as us. At least, thats what it looked like from the size of the barrel. As I hold my camera up, he quickly hides the gun behind his back, like a pansy. Dang it. That woulda made such a great photo. Well… All I got was him holding it behind his back.

So I get tired of this, and grab my dads jacket and tell him to go into the store. Right then the cops all come flyin in with sirens blaring and lights flashing. Now we’re surrounded by police, all with their guns drawn, asking us who has the firearm. Jared is off in the store now, so it’s just me and dad. We point at the crazy old guy, and back away from him. The guy lowers his gun, and sets it on the asphault. We are all ordered to our knees and cuffed. They seperate us and get our stories.

They gather all the witnesses, and after getting everybody’s story, both my dad and the crazy vet were suspects. The Vet, because of his handgun, and my dad for getting in his face. They take the guys gun away, and turn us loose. We’ll see what the prosecuters make of it.

Happy Birthday Jared.

Most have you have probably heard about the triple homicide we had here last week at the Wolf Lodge. It shook the place up quite a bit. I just want to ask you all to pray for the missing kids.

Fonda Film Won’t Fly

05.18.2005

The owner of Hardin County’s two movie theaters is refusing to show the nation’s top-grossing movie.

Like many veterans, Ike Boutwell has an issue with “Monster-in-Law” star Jane Fonda. On the ticket window at the Elizabethtown Movie Palace is a sign that tells movie goers the cinema will not show the film because of what she did in Vietnam. Below the message are pictures of Fonda clapping with a North Vietnamese anti-aircraft crew in 1972. Read full story »

It’s great to know that their are still All-American business owners, who arn’t afraid to put the nation before business. May Jane Fonda rot in hell for her treachery to the very ones who died for her freedoms. Never forgive, Never forget.
