I don't get Fox News on my cable plan but am hoping to change that soon. So I miss all the good stuff when it first comes out. I don't trust the liberal media although it's all I mainly watch for lack of anything better. I take it with a grain of salt. I know it's truth mixed with a very strong dose of bias and a dash of downright error. Anyhow a friend sent this along since I didn't see it broadcast. My first thought is Barney Frank and Chuck Schu...

Earlier I posted an article on throwing a big tea party. http://kfc.joeuser.com/article/342738/Lets_Throw_A_Tea_Party#comments Today a friend sent me a really good video that must have started the whole tea party idea going. At the time of my earlier posting I didn't know about the video but think it's worth a look. I wish I had seen this earlier. If you haven't seen it, it's worth a few minutes to check out. "Thomas Paine" see...
Let's have a tea party. Why not? It can't hurt. This is a non-violent, non threatening way to make our voices heard. It doesn't take alot of effort but gets the message across loud and clear. I've got lots of tea I can spare. Sent to me by a friend. There's a storm abrewin'. What happens when good, responsible people keep quiet? Washington has forgotten they work for us. We don't work for them. Throwing...
This is short and true.......says it all. Luke ''The Drifter '' says : "We Americans were tired of being thought of as dumb by the rest of the world . So we went to the polls in November and removed all doubt."
Hopefully Obama looks at these results and realizes that the country may have elected him President, but they are still in favor of "conservative" values especially when it comes to the definition of marriage: Arizona, California, and Florida all voted to ban homosexual marriage (thats 100% of the states where this type of vote was on the ballot). Yay Florida! Nebraska voted to end affirmitive action (Colorado is still a toss up). Unfortunately you can n...
I was not happy that we were forced to watch Obama last night. I mean sure, we could turn off the set but maybe, just maybe we wanted to watch our regular programs. I sure, as heck, didn't sit in front of TV with baited breath inhaling every word that spilled from his mouth. He must really think himself worthy to do such a thing. Did you catch Obama's comment about how the Republicans are calling him a socialist probably because he shared his toys in kindergarten? ...
How about a little JU poll to make the election even more interesting? Since we live all over the country it would be informative to check each one of our states and see if we can report who has the edge in their perspective state. The national polls and maps I've seen so far have Florida as a blue state. I was very surprised at this because here I was thinking I left a blue state for a red one only to see these latest polls, until today. So it's looking like Flori...
My friend sent me this and I agree. Let's just put it right out in the open. Let's find out who's bribing who. It might help us to make better informed decisions. Members of Congress should wear uniforms like NASCAR drivers, so we could identify their corporate sponsors.
Fair Warning to Palin By Robert Knight Well, don't say she hasn't been warned. Sarah Palin cannot make even one mistake in Thursday's debate or she will be cooked. George Stephanopoulos said so Monday on ABC's Good Morning America : "Picking up on what Kevin Madden said in David Wright's piece: Number one for Sarah Palin, she cannot make a mistake. A major mistake particularly on foreign policy would be absolutely fatal to her candidacy." Good Morning...
It was the annual "Summerfest" in a community about 60 miles west of Chicago. We were expecting rides and cotton candy, but were greeted instead by tractors and a pork chop dinner. The crowd was populated by just plain folks — old and young, enjoying the easy camaraderie of small town life. One family stood out. It was a mom and dad with a boy about eight I'll call "Johnny." We had come to see a Chicago band, awkwardly positioned on a flatbed truck, who didn't disappoint...
For the most part, especially lately, I've always looked at the Dems as being a pretty hypcritical group. For all sorts of reasons. Did you watch the RNC last night? Did you see the protesters they had to forcibly drag out of the convention for being disruptive? At first I didn't get the "USA" chant that interrupted McCain so many times. It took me a few minutes to realize everytime the crowd very loudly voiced their affection for the USA they wer...
Ok, now there's lots of talk about not liking either candidate running for office or reluctantly going to the polls to vote for the lesser of two evils. I think I've got the solution! Yep. This is good. Here's another alternative. This is major grassroots. Now you'll know exactly who to vote for come November. http://www.thelopezfamilyonline.com/play.php?first=KFC&last=Kickin%20For%20Christ Don't be chicken. It's ab...
I am axiously awaiting the naming of the VP positions especially for McCain. There still could be a chance I'm not going to the polls this year. Hopefully this won't happen but alot hinges on the VP choice McCain makes. During this past weekend's Q&A with Rick Warren of the Saddleback church John McCain answered very simply to the "when does life begin" question. He came right out and said life begins with conception. Obama, on the other hand, g...
A friend from VA sent me this and I thought it was cute but also a very simple way to put things. Funny how things can change when it becomes personal doesn't it? *********************************************** I'm reminded of the time that Catherine - a little girl in our neighborhood - told me that she wanted to be President one day. Both of her parents, liberal Democrats , were standing there with us, and I asked Catherine, "If you ...
