From Mostly Cajun, read the whole thing, its worth it:

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government,…
"So I listened to Obama speaking (first mistake, I know) and he tells the Republicans “You had ten years” to straighten out the health care system.
........
I’m tired! Call a spade a spade. Show there’s a difference. Most of America is tired of one rule for all of us, another rule for them. do you think the IRS would have been as congenial with a tax error with ol’ Joe Schmucj as they were with Obama’s pick for TREASURY secretary, Tim Geitner? I’ve dealt with the IRS over tax errors and there was nothing “nice” about them.
Public health care? I’d think very well of “public health facilities” if the public health facility I used was the congressional wing of Walter Reid.
.........
I am an American. I do not ASK for privilege. I was born to my OWN “Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” And I do not do “classes”. I expect to work for me and mine, and I expect others to do the same for theirs. I will extend a hand to the unfortunate, but not the lazy.
And I am keeping close eye, as Claire Wolfe says, because “America is at that awkward stage. It’s too late to work within the system, but too early to shoot the bastards.”
And it may be later than we think."

Because when seconds count, the police are only minutes away!
No matter how effective the police are, they CANNOT be everywhere. Everyone has a responsibility for their own protection. Thankfully, this woman accepted that responsibility!

A few months ago
Back in April, my son and I were offered the opportunity to shoot a .50 BMG. This is the cartridge that was made famous by the M2 or "Ma Deuce". John Moses Browning, often called "God's Own Armorer", designed the M2, along with a design that may be the most beloved firearm ever, the 1911 Government Colt .45. It is probably about the largest cartridge I'll ever have the chance to fire. Because of the muzzle brake, it was comfortable to fire, very comparable to a 12 gauge shooting slugs. The bullet is about as big around as my little finger and the cartridge is 5 1/2 inches long.
Unknown to me at the time, the experience was being videoed, and fortunately it was recently posted on another blog. The owner was kind enough to present a high quality version for me and I've posted it for your entertainment.
The first shooter, and the 10 year old (or so) who shoot last were other shooters given the chance to do so.

Couldn't GM solve it's financial problems....
Very easily if they would just start building primers and making brass?
All that capacity, all those workers, surely they could be fairly easily converted over to manufacturing something that people actually want!!
I know, it's been 2 months, but I'm very close to completing a VERY long term project, and I've been VERY busy at work!

Quote of the Day!
The only difference I ever found between the Democratic leadership and the Republican leadership is that one of them is skinning you from the ankle up and the other, from the ear down. - Huey P. Long

Here we go!!!!
Update: Attorney General Eric Holder told reporters Wednesday that President Obama would like to "reinstitute the ban on the sale of assault weapons" that expired in 2004 under the Bush administration. Holder said the ban would not only be a "positive move" by the United States, but would help reduce the trafficking of guns to the drug cartels in Mexico. It looks like the gun boom is far from over.

And no one can even define "assault weapons"! Is an AR15 in semiautomatic an "assault weapon"? How about a Ruger 10/22 with a 30 round clip? Or a bolt action .308 with a 15 round clip? Or a .40 caliber Springfield XDM pistol with a 16 round clip?
Here comes the nightmare, are we ready?
