An Idiot's Guide to the Bill of Rights-Amendment Two
In a continuation of yesterday's theme of Dammit, You Morons, Quit Pissing on My Parade, comes the next installment of An Idiot's Guide to the Bill of Rights.
Amendment Number Two: A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.
I shall dissect the argument against uncontrolled purchases of firearms here. Most of the wetbrains for gun control argue that this amendment only serves to maintain a "militia". For all of you that cannot or will not pick up a dictionary, a "militia" is the whole body of able-bodied male citizens declared by law as being subject to call to military service. According to that, women are NOT allowed to own firearms, and since women can't own them, no one can. I guess that argument is better than any other for outlawing guns. But I digress.
I guess that you could also make the argument that all guns must be owned by the "people" too. That would mean that ALL guns would belong to ALL people. Hey, try to come get your part of our gun from my house. Hilarity ensues.
Anyhoo, since our Founding Fathers were serious dudes, most people would interpret this amendment to simply state that the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed. That means that you can buy any gun or ammunition, at any time that someone would sell it to you. No where do I read anything that remotely says that these firearms must not have detachable magazines or any other such nonsense.
Now, to apply more granite-solid wisdom to the debate, is there honestly anyone out there that has a legitimate argument for banning any type of firearms? I know that most people would not agree to allow a paroled criminal to own a gun or even vote for that matter, but that is covered in reams of State legislation.
Anyway, from my read of Amendment Two, it is patently unlawful for Congress to pass any bill that restricts our individual rights to own guns. So, Chuck Schumer, sit down and shut up.
Stay tuned for tomorrow's lesson on where that damned military can bunk.....

Uh, NYT Said WHAT?
From an article dated November 24, 2005, by ROBERT H. FRANK entitled Sometimes, a Tax Cut for the Wealthy Can Hurt the Wealthy, comes this confusing bit of information...
With the economy already at full employment, no one pretends these cuts are needed to stimulate spending.
Wait, did the Times just say that there was NO UNEMPLOYMENT? Damn, this terrible economy must be the strangest in the history of the world.
More HERE. And the rest of the article is just as stupid as the comment above....

Blacks and Their Bad Spending Habits
This Google search sends more people to my site than any other. Again, I must say that anyone that continually posts the USA Today article without pulling out a calculator is a dripping wetbrain. Please do a little research before you pass on the stupidity contained in this article.
I know, I know, it makes more sense to simply press "Forward" than to actually think about what is contained in the article, but rest assured, USA Today is a rag. It is NOT legitimate news.
Here we go AGAIN: From my August 20, 2005 post entitled What Black Folks Think of Black Folks
The Article: (with commentary)
USA Today article on Black Spending Habits:
These are tough economic times (Despite all the evidence to the contrary), especially for African-Americans, whom the unemployment rate is more than 10%.(Actually 8.7%, but who's counting?) Alarmingly, rather than belt-tightening, the response has been to spend more. In many poor neighborhoods, one is likely to notice satellite dishes and expensive new cars. (Did it ever occur to these people that maybe some folks CHOOSE to live in cheaper neighborhoods and drive nicer cars?)
According to Target Market, a company that tracks black consumer spending, blacks spends a significant amount of their income on depreciable products. (As does every other race in the world)
In 2002, the year the economy nose-dived (This said even though the FACTS show exactly the opposite. The economy turned down in 1997, and has been making a recovery since 2001); we spent $22.9 billion ($22,900,000,000.00) on clothes, $3.2 billion ($3,200,000,000.00) on electronics and $11.6 billion ($11,600,000,000.00) on furniture to put into homes that, in many cases, were rented. (A stupid point, but one I will dissect. There are approximately 39.4 million Black people in this country. This is from the 2000 Census. This clothing figure breaks down to $581.00 dollars for each of the 39.4 million people. This does not seem odd to me. Clothes SHOULD always be worn when you are in public. $81 for each on electronics. It seems somewhat low, but they are the figures cited. And a whopping $279 for furniture. The numbers look really daunting out of context, which they are in the article, but here are the totals. Cited figures only amount to $941 per year for each Black person. It just doesn't seem scary now, does it?)
Among our favorite purchases are cars and liquor. Blacks make up only 12% of the U.S. population, yet account for 30% of the country's Scotch consumption. (Whites account for almost 100% of Britney Spears album sales) Detroit, which is 80% black, is the world's No.1 market for Cognac. (What in the Hell is the point here? I'm guessing that Detroit is also the Number One market for Pistons jerseys, too. Nashville is probably the Number One market for banjos and somewhere that has alot of Polka dancers probably invests in a lot of accordians, which is worse? I guess this would bother me if Detroit was the Number One market for child pornography, but oddly enough that is San Francisco which has relatively few minority folks.)
So impressed was Lincoln with the $46.7 billion ($46,700,000,000) ($1168 per person) that blacks spent on cars that the automaker commissioned Sean "P. Diddy" Combs, the entertainment and fashion mogul, to design a limited-edition Navigator replete with six plasma screens, three DVD players and a Sony PlayStation 2. (And you know that Puffy's was the leading selling Navigator of all time, right? Well not exactly. They have not been released and there will only be 100 made. Plus they will sell for $85,000 and Puffy has financed the deal) The only area where blacks seem to be cutting back on spending is books (The same as everyone else. It means that people are finding their information in other venues like Project Gutenberg); total purchases have gone from a high of $356 million in 2000 to $303 million in 2002. This shortsighted behavior, motivated by a desire for instant gratification and social acceptance, comes at the expense of our future. (Hey, might as well just say, "Yo' Mama!" This is about Blacks telling Blacks that they are immature and insecure. Try that at my family reunion and you might get cut)
The National Urban League's "State of Black America 2004" report found that fewer than 50% of black families owned their homes compared with more than 70% of whites. (This is not alarming either. History has shown that the Black population in this country is more migrant than the White population. Why buy a house if you are going to move? I would like to see these stats broken down into age, then there could be a comparison of something that was worthwhile.)
According to published reports, the Ariel Mutual Funds/Charles Schwab 2003 Black Investor Survey found that when comparing households where blacks and whites had roughly the same household incomes, whites saved nearly 20% more each month for retirement, and 30% of African-Americans earning $100,000 a year had less than $5,000 in retirement savings. (These figures ignore the size of the household, and provide no background for the study. I can't find anything regarding the study either. The base figure for people that invest in retirement income IS actually 68%, so that 70% figure is HIGHER than the norm.)
While 79% of whites invest in the stock market, only 61% of African-Americans do. Certainly, higher rates of unemployment, income disparity and credit discrimination are financial impediments to the economic vitality of blacks, but so are our consumer tastes. (Opinion passed off as fact is still not fact and the stock market is more volatile than the bond market, so who's the impulsive race now?)
By finding the courage to change our spending habits, we might be surprised at how far the $631 billion (631,000,000,000.00) we now earn might take us. (This is part of the mob mentality thing that captivates the Left. That money is most definitely NOT in a pool somewhere for all to sup. Vote Democrat because they are more in tune with the needs of the Black race!)
We all send thousands of jokes through e-mail without a second thought, but when it comes to sending messages regarding life-affirming choices, people think twice about sharing. So please pass this on. (Because we all send thousands of jokes through e-mail. Don't fall for this propaganda, folks. Use your brain to discredit the liars and thieves that want your money)

An Idiot's Guide to the Bill of Rights-Amendment One
It has come to my attention that there are an increasing number of morons that DO NOT understand our Constitution and the Bill of Rights, so I am here with an elementary primer to clear up the confusion. This ain't rocket surgery, Lester.
Amendment Number One: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.
Okay, Punkin', this should be simple, but for most this is one of the most complicated pieces of legislation ever passed. I'll break it down for y'all.
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion...This means that Congress shall NOT draft any legislation that establishes a religion. This does NOT mean that every State legislative body cannot do just that. If California wants to pass laws that say only Wiccans can live in California, the United States Congress cannot and must not interfere.
or prohibiting the free exercise thereof...Congress cannot tell the States that they have to do away with any religious symbols on the courthouse lawn. The Supreme Court has increasingly trampled on this Right in cases lately, but Congress has the Constituional duty to smack the Supremes down on this issue.
or abridging the freedom of speech...Congress cannot pass any legislation telling individuals what they can and cannot say. There have been a couple of attachments to this and explanations but, Congress has no power to stifle what people say, no matter how stupid.
or of the press...This is a little tricky, but nevertheless simplistic in its complexity. If you are the press, Congress cannot regulate what you have to say. There are other recourses to follow if you have been abused by the press, but Congress is NOT one of those.
or the right of the people peaceably to assemble...The key word here to me is "peaceably". Cindy Sheehan did not follow the peaceably description, so in my mind, it was cool for the policemen to release the hounds. Moonbats rarely "peaceably" assemble, they are violent and should be stopped.
and to petition the government for a redress of grievances...Simply put, the people are able to go to their government and say, "Dammit, boy, you done screwed up big-time!" And then start the proceeding to have all Democrats tied to lampposts and flogged.
I hope that this has cleared up any confusion regarding the First Amendment. Tomorrow, I shall drag out the cluebat for all the Sara Bradys in the country. Stay tuned for more from your One Stop Shop of Information.
UPDATE: It seems that I have been somewhat remiss in adding to this post. In Lemon v. Kurtzman in 1971, the Supremes kinda watered down the First Amendment in regards to State's Rights. Wikipedia has some stuff HERE. It seems that the Supremes took it upon themselves to dictate from the bench.

Tom Goes National
Funny comes in all kinds of odd places and this is no exception. A good friend of mine is feeling the pull of the holiday season to the point of trying to accomplish nothing this afternoon except harassing innocent people attempting to do their job. Oh, and he proposes that Beer-Thirty starts at 1:30 today.
Here we go:
A young upper management type strolls to the supply cabinet for a notebook. As he opens the book, he notices that the first page is NOT a ruled sheet of paper, but WTF? It's a survey. Our hero leaps into the fray.....
Dear Valued Customer,
Thank you for purchasing this notebook. We would like to have your feedback on what you use this produce for and learn more about you!
Have you purchased this notebook before? YES
If yes, how many of these notebooks do you use per year? 12-15
What is your main use of this notebook (optional)? I mainly use it as a notebook. You know....a book in which I write notes. Though occasionally, I use it as a coaster.
How could we make this product more useful to you? As a notebook, it does its job well. However, if it was a magic notebook that could grant wishes, that would be super. Also, if it could pick my kids up from school, that would be very useful.
Other Comments How about an automatic notebook that would take notes for me? That would allow me to sleep through meetings (just like I sleep through conference calls now).
Shortly after faxing this to the Notebook People, our hero has second thoughts and adds this:
Dear Valued Survey Reader,
After faxing you my survey on the National Brand College Ruled White paper One Subject Notebook (50 Sheets, 11"x8-7/8"), I had some additional thoughts. I shall share them with you now.
As to question three (main use of notebook), I think that I gave you my "main" uses on the original form. I have however, come up with some other uses that I have previously employed with varying degrees of success. These uses include (but are certainly not limited to):
1. Bug killer
2. Table leveler
3. Disciplinary tool for pets and children
4. Fan
5. Projectile in fits of anger
6. Peek-a-boo facilitator
7. Cue card
8. Privacy screen
9. Dust pan
10. Survey Reply Form
I hope that this list will enable you to gain further marketshare in the notebook category. Tools such as your survey must be a true godsend in the notebook wars.
All my best,
Tom
P.S. I used your notebook to write this letter. LEGAL PADS SUCK!

I Really Don't Care
I really don't feel strongly about the legalization of the bud because I don't smoke it. But if I did, I think that government regulated weed would taste like socks or something. And, dammit, think of the wonderful marches and stuff. Dude.Click it and get the BIG 'UN.

Those Damn Great Democrats Part XII - Robert Byrd (UPDATED)
UPDATE: Robert Byrd has passed away today, June 28, 2010, at the age of 92.
Well, I knew at some point that we would have to take on the Conscience of the Democrats, but I guess that I was not ready. Roger picking Byrd for this week's article took me completely by surprise, but I shall persevere. And when Barbara Boxer calls someone, "The Love of My Life", I know that I don't want to get that on ME. Here we go.
Klanman's (Dumbass-WV) site HERE. On the front page of his site, there is an actual picture of him touching a Black man. *Gasp* If he doesn't quit that crap, he is going to get kicked out of the Klan. It seems that they have a little problem with people of the darker persuasion. At least he doesn't make that mistake on his photographs page. Just look at the photo, called "Formal Smile" on "his" page. Man, I would pay money just to punch this bigoted hunk of dung right square in his smug looking piehole. A face made especially for radio, I tell ya'.
When Roger and I first started this experiment in research, we decided that it would be best to get all of our information from the websites paid for by the citizens of this great country. After doing this for four articles, we decided that additional information was needed. After visiting Klanman's site, we have decided that the information posted there is completely unusable. There is more substance in tofu, I'm telling you. But, we will let you in on THIS. Stolen directly from Atlas Shrugs, the Byrd steel company bailout will produce exactly what Ms. Rand's book describes. Cower in fear from this dude, he is a cancer on this earth.
Let's find some meat at the Library of Leftist Thought. Wikipedia actually put together a decent piece on Byrd. The Committee assignments are especially interesting given Byrd's White-Trash Cracker background.
Byrd is currently the Ranking Member on the Appropriations Committee. For all of you that do not understand such lofty titles, that means that he is the top loser on the committee. He has held this position since Lyndon Johnson (Dumbass-TX) appointed him in 1958. Almost fifty years in the same job.
Hater is also on the Armed Services Committee after being the only able-bodied male in this country to NOT serve in World War II. Nope, Byrd has never served in any branch of the military. He was busy earning his stripes in the Aryan Army instead.
Byrd also serves on the Rules and zzzzzzzz.........
Some of the more fun facts about Byrd include the fact that he is the only Senator to vote against EVERY Black nominee for any Federal judge position. I sure am glad that he has distanced himself from his racist roots. Even more fun than that little tidbit is the FACT that the NAACP gives him a 100% rating on issues important to them. Byrd is on the Black side of the thirty-three issues deemed important to the NAACP, but he still won't even talk to his yardboy. Hinky. And on to Part Two.
Born Cornelius Calvin Sale Jr. in North Wilkesboro, North Carolina, in 1917, Corny's mother died when he was just one year old. He was taken in by his uncle who then renamed him because the "Byrd" name was more respected in the Klan than "Sale". Byrd's real father was in the Klan, his adopted father was in the Klan, and young Robert joined the Klan, too. See any patterns here?
More fun ensues when every single university that Byrd attended, winded up changing their name until he finally started classes in DC. His law degree was given to him by none other than John F. Kennedy, whom Byrd despised. It seemed that Kennedy was not the Black-hating racist than Byrd was.
Anyway, Byrd is still married to his high school sweetheart who organizes all of the Klan's bake sales and also is on the Klan quilting team. They have two daughters, one married a FARNER, and they rarely talk anymore. The other married a good boy and enjoys the company of her racist father whenever she pleases.
Back to the fun! Byrd's accomplishments in government are legendary. He filibustered the 1964 Civil Rights Bill for over fourteen hours, including reading recipes from a cookbook. He completely trashed the records and accomplishments of Dr. Rice and Janice Rogers Brown, but he's no racist, he just hates women. And remember he did get that coveted 100% ranking from the NAACP for his stand on the issues.
So, in conclusion, Roger and I have determined there will be a special place set aside in Hell for Corny, right next to Hitler, Stalin, and Mao. I just hope there is plenty of gangsta' rap blaring in the background and nothing but pickled pigs feet to eat.

Well, I knew at some point that we would have to take on the Conscience of the Democrats, but I guess that I was not ready. Roger picking Byrd for this week's article took me completely by surprise, but I shall persevere. And when Barbara Boxer calls someone, "The Love of My Life", I know that I don't want to get that on ME. Here we go.
Klanman's (Dumbass-WV) site HERE. On the front page of his site, there is an actual picture of him touching a Black man. *Gasp* If he doesn't quit that crap, he is going to get kicked out of the Klan. It seems that they have a little problem with people of the darker persuasion. At least he doesn't make that mistake on his photographs page. Just look at the photo, called "Formal Smile" on "his" page. Man, I would pay money just to punch this bigoted hunk of dung right square in his smug looking piehole. A face made especially for radio, I tell ya'.When Roger and I first started this experiment in research, we decided that it would be best to get all of our information from the websites paid for by the citizens of this great country. After doing this for four articles, we decided that additional information was needed. After visiting Klanman's site, we have decided that the information posted there is completely unusable. There is more substance in tofu, I'm telling you. But, we will let you in on THIS. Stolen directly from Atlas Shrugs, the Byrd steel company bailout will produce exactly what Ms. Rand's book describes. Cower in fear from this dude, he is a cancer on this earth.
Let's find some meat at the Library of Leftist Thought. Wikipedia actually put together a decent piece on Byrd. The Committee assignments are especially interesting given Byrd's White-Trash Cracker background.
Byrd is currently the Ranking Member on the Appropriations Committee. For all of you that do not understand such lofty titles, that means that he is the top loser on the committee. He has held this position since Lyndon Johnson (Dumbass-TX) appointed him in 1958. Almost fifty years in the same job.
Hater is also on the Armed Services Committee after being the only able-bodied male in this country to NOT serve in World War II. Nope, Byrd has never served in any branch of the military. He was busy earning his stripes in the Aryan Army instead.
Byrd also serves on the Rules and zzzzzzzz.........
Some of the more fun facts about Byrd include the fact that he is the only Senator to vote against EVERY Black nominee for any Federal judge position. I sure am glad that he has distanced himself from his racist roots. Even more fun than that little tidbit is the FACT that the NAACP gives him a 100% rating on issues important to them. Byrd is on the Black side of the thirty-three issues deemed important to the NAACP, but he still won't even talk to his yardboy. Hinky. And on to Part Two.
Born Cornelius Calvin Sale Jr. in North Wilkesboro, North Carolina, in 1917, Corny's mother died when he was just one year old. He was taken in by his uncle who then renamed him because the "Byrd" name was more respected in the Klan than "Sale". Byrd's real father was in the Klan, his adopted father was in the Klan, and young Robert joined the Klan, too. See any patterns here?

Chimpy McHitlerburton and KKKarl Rove Corner the Market!
Since the economy is the worst that it has been since man was first placed here by Gaia, why is it that the S & P has hit a four and a half year high? Well, obviously it has something to do with the grand plan to enslave all the poor people and give tax breaks to the wealthy. Oh, and Chimpy was placed in office by the Supremes just four years and ten months ago. What the Hell!?!
And I'm just wondering why if the Democrats think that the War on the Lovey-Kissy Faces in Iraq is so damn evil, they would still vote to continue the war in Iraq? 403-3. Oh, by the way, the three that voted for an immediate withdrawal of troops were: Jose Serrano of New York, Robert Wexler of Florida and Cynthia McKinney of Georgia. The others that simply voted present were: Reps. Jim McDermott of Washington; Jerrold Nadler, Maurice Hinchey and Major Owens of New York; Michael Capuano of Massachusetts and William Lacy Clay of Missouri. Yeah, they are ALL Democrats.

It's All About the Benjamins
Let's face it, Head Start sucks. Granted, it seemed like a good idea to attempt to teach kids to read and write at an earlier age than traditionally, but if you look at it, Head Start is not the program that can accomplish that task.
I am not going to try to show that all things are related and causal, but I am going to PROVE that Head Start is a complete waste of MY tax dollars. Just from the student-to-staff ratio of 865,000 students to 180,000 staff, you can see that there is something amiss. That breaks down to 4.8 kids to each staff member. That is nuts. Oh, from the NHSA website, they claim over one million kids and over 200,000 staff. They are lying, but just for the sake of argument, that is still 5 students per staff member.
Let's trudge on....In 1973, Head Start was first established in Kansas City, Missouri. Since that chapter has been around the longest, let's dissect the KC schools.
Simple math tells you that in the public schools in or around Kansas City, if the student body scores 5% or less and the state average is 33% or greater, something is very, very wrong.
Head Start is a program that is an even larger failure than Social Security. Throw more of my money in it, but still let it die. And then cut me a refund check. Quit crippling our children with "feel-good" programs and let them sink or swim on their own. And give me back my damn money.

The Alito Bandito
Once again I comment on Bush's Supremes nomination. Uh, if Planned Parenthood doesn't like him, isn't that a good thing? And why would you call it "Planned Parenthood" when you are so whacked out Pro-Abortion? Change the name to something like "We Love to Kill Babies!"
I'm going to get hammered, now. This politicking talk always gives me the cottonmouth like a big, fat spliff.

Hooray For Google! Post #1

Former FEMA Chief is Running Fwance
This shall be a rambling post, put on your cup.
While I have been remiss in posting the weighty articles that usually consume all of my free time, I have been keeping up with the news in the "enlightened" countries. It seems that Fwance has hired Brownie to run all the essential functions of their government. Only Michael Brown could screw up a country that is so absolutely perfect.
The riots started after twoyouths criminals were electrocuted in a substation while running from police trying to rape them. Here's what Jack Chirac says, Fwance "has not done everything possible for these youths, supported them so they feel understood, heard and respected," while noting that unemployment runs as high as 40 percent in some suburbs, four times the national rate, according to Vike-Freiberga. I just threw up in my mouth a little.
Damn, let's all jump on a boat and go running off to this wonderful place from which we refuse to accept advice. Did it ever occur to people that there are some folks that are too stupid to last through the cull? Never look down the barrel after your gun doesn't fire, Jacky-Boy.
Oh, wait, news reports are warning against traipsing off to Fwance. From Breitbart.com: The issue is crucial for Fwance because tourism is a vital sector of the economy, contributing nearly 7 percent of gross domestic product and sustaining, either directly or indirectly, 2 million jobs, Bertrand said. Fwance welcomed 75 million tourists in 2004, a boost for a country struggling with nearly 10 percent unemployment and sluggish growth.
Ten percent unemployment, nationwide? That is just about as high as Dafur. Why would we want to listen to these absolute dumbasses?
It gets better; Fwance has called up 1500 reservists to help control the rioting. This is extremely good news to surrender flag companies. So far the Fwench Army has purchased 1500 white flags and has surrendered to two hundred mostly unarmed youths in skirmishes since October 27. Other than about 1200 people that surrendered to police to get three hots and a cot because of unemployment, most of the rioters are still at large. Police are still trying to come up with a way to entice them to surrender, but authorities have come to the conclusion that most are not Fwench. That means that they are not born with the surrender gene.
Further news reports show that rioting may be beginning in Berlin as well. Five cars were torched by people attempting to copy the Fwench. Muslims and Skinheads on the same team? Sounds awesome.
Think about this for a second. When Slovakian Foreign Ministers say to avoid your country, you might want to rethink things a tad.
Since I have visited The Armpit of Civilization, I can say with all seriousness, Fwance, you suck. And I had to eat some snails to get the taste of that wine out of my mouth. Bring on the MD-20/20.
