Have You Been To Any Of These Places?

 
I have been in many places, but I've never been in Cahoots. Apparently, you can't go alone.
You have to be in Cahoots with someone.

I've also never been in Cognito. I hear no one recognizes you there

I have, however, been in Sane. They don't have an airport; you have to be driven there. I have made several trips there, thanks to my friends, family and work.

I would like to go to Conclusions, but you have to jump, and I'm not too much on physical activity anymore.

I have also been in Doubt. That is a sad place to go, and I try not to visit there too often.


I've been in Flexible, but only when it was very important to stand firm.

Sometimes I'm in Capable, and I go there more often as I'm getting older.

One of my favorite places to be is in Suspense! It really gets the adrenalin flowing and pumps up the old heart! At my age I need all the stimuli I can get!

I may have been in Continent, and I don't remember what country I was in. It's an age thing.

Attack Of The Angry Birds Louisiana Style!!

Yesterday while driving home from town we saw an suv on the shoulder of the road with its flashers on, door open, and windshield smashed in so badly that it was laying partly on the dashboard. I turned around to go back and see if anyone was hurt. I fully expected to find people with cut up faces and glass in their eyes.
When I got there three women got out. They seemed okay and didn't have any cuts that I could see. I asked if they were okay and if they needed anything, and they said that they were fine and that help was on the way.
I noticed on the windshield that there were a couple of large black feathers. I asked the driver what had happened and she just looked at me and smiled as she said, "angry birds!" 
For those who haven't already guessed, a large buzzard (Louisiana's second state bird) had crashed into her windshield! 
Glad they were okay, and that she was able to find some humor in her dilemma. 
Keep smiling;-)

Obama Just Banned 1,000,000 Guns

From the desk of Rand Paul:

Dear fellow Patriot,

Nearly 1 million American rifles.

Banned by a stroke of Barack Obama’s pen.

In a move unprecedented in American history, the Obama Administration quietly banned the re-importation of nearly one million American made M1 Garand and Carbine rifles.

The M1 Garand, developed in the late 1930’s, carried the United States through World War II seeing action in every major battle.

General Patton at the time called the M1 Garand “the greatest battle implement ever devised.”

The rifle is largely credited with giving American soldiers the advantage and securing victory for the allies.

During the Korean War, nearly one million of these rifles were brought to South Korea and left with the South Korean government afterward.

Now, South Korea wants to give American gun collectors the chance to get their hands on this unique piece of history.

A piece of American history that Barack Obama would like to see go down the memory hole.

That’s why I want as many Americans as possible to put themselves on record opposing this gun ban by signing the Official Firearms Freedom Survey the National Association for Gun Rights has prepared for you.

Will you please join me?



After World War II, the United States government sent millions of these rifles overseas to our allies and friends.

Over the past 50 years, many of the countries we lent them to returned them to America to be bought and sold by firearms collectors.

This is nothing new.

Make no mistake; these rifles were made in America, by Americans, for Americans, to defend freedom on foreign shores.

As a part of our history, they are greatly sought after by American shooters and collectors.

But according to Hillary Clinton’s State Department there is a danger they might “fall into the wrong hands.”

That they might, possibly, one day be used in a crime.

No mention of the hundreds of thousands of gun owners deprived of the opportunity to own an integral part of American history.

The State Department’s outrageous claims are nothing more than a thinly veiled ploy to distract from the real issue:

President Obama’s deep seated hatred for gun rights.

While his gun-grabbing base is giddy with praise at this back-door gun ban, law-abiding citizens across the United States are crying foul.

Let me be clear: at no time in U.S. history has the ownership of this firearm -- or any part of this firearm -- been illegal, restricted or banned.

Americans have collected World War II M1 Garand and Carbine rifles for decades.

Now they are sold through the Civilian Marksmanship Program.

You can even purchase a newly manufactured model from Springfield Armory that was made just a month or two ago.

And the M1 Garand’s caliber or capacity is no more dangerous than the millions of modern firearms owned by Americans across the country today.

As you can see, there is absolutely no justification for this unconstitutional gun ban.



This is just the latest in a series of anti-gun schemes from the Obama Administration:
*** A new so-called “Assaults Weapon Ban" -- targeting ALL semi-automatic rifles and shotguns -- which, unlike the Clinton ban, would NEVER expire;

*** An outright BAN on “high capacity” magazines -- banning the sale and manufacture of magazines holding more than just a handful of rounds;

*** A National Concealed Carry “Standard” -- designed to make it even more difficult for law-abiding citizens to carry a gun to protect themselves and their families from assault;

*** Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s “Catch-All Gun Control Scheme” -- to create a national “cannot buy registry,” allowing citizens to be stripped of their Second Amendment rights on a Justice Department whim, effectively banning all private gun sales.

That’s why it is essential that Americans like you and I take a stand against the M1 Garand gun ban!

It has been common practice since the end of World War II to re-import these American made rifles from the foreign allies they were lent to during the war.

But the Obama Administration departs radically from the American tradition.

In fact, on top of banning American citizens from owning these historic firearms, Obama’s State Department is arranging for the destruction of nearly one million of them -- ironically, at a time of ballooning federal deficits.

It’s an outrage!

These firearms -- truly pieces of American history -- rightly belong in the hands of U.S. citizens.

That’s why I was glad to hear that the National Association for Gun Rights is helping fight this power grab in the U.S. Senate.

Do you believe the U.S. Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the Second Amendment are the supreme law of the land?

Do you believe that President Obama banning the re-importation of these historic firearms is an unprecedented and unconstitutional power grab?

Do you support Congress forcing President Obama to reverse his ban and save these American made rifles from destruction?

If you said “Yes” to these questions, please sign the Firearms Freedom Survey the National Association for Gun Rights has prepared for you.

Your survey will put you squarely on the record AGAINST Barack Obama’s Rifle Ban.



And along with your signed survey, I hope you’ll send a generous contribution of $250, $100, $50 or even just $35 to help finance this battle.

With your generous contribution, the National Association for Gun Rights will continue contacting Second Amendment supporters to turn up the heat on targeted U.S. Senators.

Not only that, but they’re preparing a massive program to launch the designed to force President Obama to reverse this ban.

Direct mail.  Phones.  E-mail.  Blogs.  Guest editorials.  Press conferences.  Hard-hitting internet, newspaper, radio and even TV ads if funding permits.  The whole nine yards.

Of course, a program of this scale is only possible if the National Association for Gun Rights can raise the money.

But that’s not easy.

So please put yourself on record AGAINST Barack Obama’s Rifle Ban by signing NAGR’s Firearms Freedom Survey.

But along with your survey, please agree to make a generous contribution of $250, $100, $50 or even just $35.

And every dollar counts in this fight so even if you can only chip in $10 or $20, your help will still make a difference.

Thank you in advance for your time and money devoted to defending our Second Amendment rights.

For Freedom,

Rand Paul
United States Senator
P.S. In a move unprecedented in American history, Barack Obama secretly banned the re-importation of nearly a million American made M1 Garand and Carbine rifles.

The M1 Garand, developed in the 1930’s, carried the U.S. through World War II seeing action in every major battle.

So please put yourself on record AGAINST the Barack Obama’s Rifle Ban by signing NAGR’s Firearms Freedom Survey.

But along with your survey, please agree to make a generous contribution to the National Association for Gun Rights of $250, $100, $50 or even just $35.

The #1 Reason To Never Let The Liberals Have Your Weapons!

 
 

I borrowed this story from a friend on facebook, and thought it would be a great addition to this blog as I am a gun owner.


This is a true story and most people will never know it.

After the Japanese
decimated our fleet in Pearl Harbor Dec 7, 1941, they could have
sent their troop ships and carriers directly to California to
... ... finish what they started.

They didn't. Why?

The prediction from our Chief of Staff
was we would not be able to stop a massive invasion until they
reached the Mississippi River . Remember, we had a 2 million man
army and war ships…...all fighting the Germans. So, why did they
not invade?

After the war, the remaining Japanese generals and
admirals were asked that question. Their answer…...they knew that
almost every home had guns and the Americans knew how to use them.

The world's largest army... America's hunters!

A blogger added up the deer license sales in just a handful of
states and arrived at a striking conclusion:

Over the last several months, Wisconsin's hunters became the
eighth largest army in the world.
More men under arms than in Iran.
More than in France and Germany combined.

There were over 600,000 hunters this season in the state of
Wisconsin.

These men deployed to the woods of a single American state
to hunt with firearms, and no one was killed.

That number pales in comparison to the 750,000 who hunted the
woods of Pennsylvania and Michigan's 700,000 hunters,
All of whom have now returned home.

Toss in a quarter million hunters in West Virginia and it
literally establishes the fact that the hunters of those four
states alone would comprise the largest army in the world.
The point?

America will forever be safe from foreign invasion with that
kind of home-grown firepower.

Hunting -- it's not just a way to fill the freezer. It's a
matter of national security.

That's why all enemies, foreign and domestic, want to see us
disarmed.

Food for thought when next one considers gun control.

“The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles.”
― Jeff Cooper, Art of the Rifle

I'm holding the others I suggested on that day for a few more days. Happy trading!

Public Prayer May Satisfy The Flesh, But Does It Satisy The Savior?

Matthew 6:5 - 7
 
5. And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites [are]: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
 
Jesus says you must definitely not pray as the hypocrites pray.

6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
7 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen [do]: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.

Liberals LIE! Here Are A Few Facts That They Lie About!

I received the following via email. Please feel free to share!

Education of the masses will be the only way to win in November!  Please pass this on.  The last point is as powerful as the first.
 
 
 

There are actually two messages here.  The first is very interesting, but the second is absolutely astounding - and explains a lot.  
 
A recent "Investor's Business Daily" article provided very interesting statistics from a survey by the United Nations International Health Organization.  
 
 Percentage of men and women who survived a cancer five years after diagnosis:  
 
               U.S.                    65%    
 
               England              46%  
 
               Canada               42%  
 
 Percentage of patients diagnosed with diabetes who received treatment within six months:  
 
               U.S.                     93%  
 
               England              15%  
 
               Canada               43%  
 
 Percentage of seniors needing hip replacement who received it within six months:  
     
               U.S.                     90%  
     
               England              15%  
     
               Canada               43%  
            
Percentage referred to a medical specialist who see one within one month:  
     
               U.S.                     77%  
     
               England              40%  
     
               Canada               43%  
     
Number of MRI scanners (a prime diagnostic tool) per million people:  
     
               U.S.                     71  
     
               England              14  
     
               Canada               18  
     
Percentage of seniors (65+), with low income, who say they are in "excellent health":  
     
               U.S.                    12%  
     
               England               2%  
     
               Canada               6%  
     
And now for the last statistic:  
     
  National Health Insurance?  
     
               U.S.                     NO  
     
               England             YES  
     
               Canada              YES  
     
  Check this last set of statistics!!  
     
  The percentage of each past president's cabinet who had worked  
  in the private business sector prior to their appointment to the cabinet.  
  You know what the private business sector is a real-life business, not a  
  government job.  Here are the percentages.  
     
     
              T. Roosevelt.................... 38%  
     
              Taft.................................. 40%  
     
               Wilson ........................... 52%  
     
              Harding........................... 49%  
     
              Coolidge......................... 48%  
     
              Hoover ........................... 42%  
     
              F. Roosevelt................... 50%  
     
              Truman........................... 50%  
     
              Eisenhower................ .... 57%  
     
              Kennedy......................... 30%  
     
              Johnson.......................... 47%  
     
              Nixon.............................. 53%  
     
              Ford................................ 42%  
     
              Carter............................. 32%  
     
              Reagan........................... 56%  
     
              GH Bush......................... 51%  
     
               Clinton .......................... 39%  
     
              GW Bush........................ 55%  
     
              Obama..................... 8%  
     
     
  This helps to explain the incompetence of this administration:  
  only 8% of them have ever worked in private business!  
     
  That's right!  Only eight percent---the least, by far, of the  
  last 19 presidents!  And these people are trying to tell our big  
  corporations how to run their business?  
     
  How can the president of a major nation and society, the one  
  with the most successful economic system in world history, stand and talk  
  about business when he's never worked for one?  Or about jobs when he has   never really had one?  And when it's the same for 92% of his senior staff   and closest advisers?  They've spent most of their time in academia,   government and/or non-profit jobs or as "community organizers."  They should   have been in an employment line.  
     
  Pass this on because we'll NEVER see these facts in the main stream media.
