Bush: "McCain is a TRUE Conservative"

John McCain is a "true conservative," President Bush has stated.

That is not good enough for me. I want a "TRUE 'true conservative.'" I do not want to be forced to vote for a "lesser of two evils."

I may have no choice not to vote for McCain if we are to keep Oprah's Love Child or SuperBitch out of the White House.

Things used to be so much simpler. I wish Mr. Peabody or Dr. Emmett Brown were around now. Take me back to a time went conservative values were the norm of a good American society. Where the people we elected really had our best interests at heart. Take me back to a time when being outside the box was not viewed as the norm.

I know I am dreaming. We will never go back to those times. Too much has happened and too many things have changed. Why is it that people call for change, but only when they are not the ones in power. Some change is good, but not always. Mr. Peabody and Doc Brown could help us now, but only if they were "TRUE CONSERVATIVES."

The March of Cambreadth

I found this video in a round about way and think it is great. It was originally posted on YouTube by a person posting as moombean51287.

Listen to the lyics and sing along. The song is by
Heather Alexander and is titled “The March of Cambreadth.” I am going to have to check out more of this Celtic music.

This song, its lyrics, and the video are top notch. This song would make a great battle hymn for the War on Terror.

Imagine the "low life terrorists" in Iraq and Afghanistan hearing this song as an M1 Abrams or Humvees, armored with weapons to bear, rolled towards them. They would crap in their robes.




Axes flash, broadsword swing,
Shining armour's piercing ring
Horses run with a polished shield,
Fight Those Bastards till They Yield
Midnight mare and blood red roan,
Fight to Keep this Land Your Own
Sound the horn and call the cry,
How Many of Them Can We Make Die!

Follow orders as you're told,
Make Their Yellow Blood Run Cold
Fight until you die or drop,
A Force Like Ours is Hard to Stop
Close your mind to stress and pain,
Fight till You're No Longer Sane
Let not one damn cur pass by,
How Many of Them Can We Make Die!

Guard your women and children well,
Send These Bastards Back to Hell
We'll teach them the ways of war,
They Won't Come Here Any More
Use your shield and use your head,
Fight till Every One is Dead
Raise the flag up to the sky,
How Many of Them Can We Make Die!

Dawn has broke, the time has come,
Move Your Feet to a Marching Drum
We'll win the war and pay the toll,
We'll Fight as One in Heart and Soul
Midnight mare and blood red roan,
Fight to Keep this Land Your Own
Sound the horn and call the cry,

How Many of Them Can We Make Die!
Axes flash, broadsword swing,
Shining armour's piercing ring
Horses run with polished shield,
Fight Those Bastards till They Yield
Midnight mare and blood red roan,
Fight to Keep this Land Your Own
Sound the horn and call the cry,
How Many of Them Can We Make Die!
How Many of Them Can We Make Die!
How Many of Them Can We Make Die

A Belated Birthday Wish to Ronald Reagan (Thanks to Buckhorn Road)

As I sit here in my overstuffed chair, recovering from the flu and watching Die Hard 2 on television, I am trying to catch up on my blog reading.

Being ill the past three days has taken its toll on me and some things have gotten under my radar. The time spent home has made me think about a great deal of things. I will post about what came to my mind in future posts, but for now, I must rectify a lapse in my posts for which I am sorely sorry.

As I was reading some of my fellow bloggers, I came across a post of one of my favorite fellow education bloggers. He blogs as
Chanman and his blog is Buckhorn Road. I recommend his blog to everyone. He has a very unique way of expressing his opinions and is outlook and posts on various subjects are exceptional.


I feel he is a kindred sprint in the blogosphere. Being a fellow educator, I think we feel alike on many things and if we every had the chance to meet, would become fast friends and possible share a six pack while telling war stories about our time in education.

Anyway, back to my current post. I wish to thank Chanman for reminding be of a birthday that occurred this week

This past Wednesday was President Ronald Reagan’s birthday. He would have been 97 years old.

I feel he was the best President of the 20th century, if not of the entire history of the United States. When he died, I cried. Yes, I admit it, I cried. Not as much as when my mother and father passed, but it did stir emotions in me.

Reagan made this country great again. He “toed the line” with the Russians and dared them to act. He made the United States again a power to be feared and respected. Heck, even my Democratic father-in-law voted for him.

We need another Reagan NOW!!!

Not a Clinton, not a Obama, and not a McCain. We need some who actually was a foot soldier in the Reagan Army, not someone who claims to be.

I want to again thank Chanman for reminding me of Reagan’s birthday.

We should never forget the birthdays of the truly great Americans. By remembering their values, beliefs, and all the good they did for our country, their memory will never die.

Happy "Belated" Birthday Mr. President.

Hillary "Pissed" About Comments Stating She is "Pimping Out" Chelsea

Hillary Clinton is pissed about comments made between MSNBC's Chris Matthews, anchor of "Hardball," and David Shuster, a correspondent and fill-in anchor on the cable network.

Shuster on Thursday, suggesting it was "a little bit unseemly to me that Chelsea's out there calling up celebrities, saying support my mom, and she's apparently also calling these super delegates," asked, "doesn't it seem like Chelsea's sort of being pimped out in some weird sort of way?"

Now Hillary may boycott all debates on NBC, because she feels she and her family has been slighted.

The Clinton's are despicable. They say the most vile and inappropriate things about others but no one is allowed to do the same to them.

I am here to say that Hillary (and Bill) have always “pimped out” Chelsea. If they thought it was good for the Clinton, then they have never hesitated to use Chelsea to achieve the desired result.

Let us look at times when Chelsea was “pimped out.”

Hillary claims Chelsea was jogging by the Word Trade Center and witnessed the 9-11 attacks first hand.

This has been proved false in numerous reports, yet no one has challenged her on the lie.

Chelsea lied about her mother's record on Darfur, telling a group at Stanford University earlier this month that she was "really proud that my mom was the first Democratic senator to call it genocide in May of 2004 and put a lot of pressure on the Bush administration to recognize it as genocide."

This is also untrue, as it was Sen. Russ Feingold (D-Wisconsin), Mike DeWine(R-Ohio), and Sam Brownback (R-Kansas) who first came forward on Darfur.

This statement has not been challenged, as the Clintons have made it clear that Chelsea is off limits and no one may questions her statements.

Chelsea brushes off a fourth-grade reporter, Sydney Rieckhoff, in Cedar Rapids, Iowa when she attempted to interview her for the Scholastic News.

Question: Do you think your dad would be a good "first man" in the White House?

Answer: I'm sorry, I don't talk to the press and that applies to you, unfortunately. Even though I think you're cute.

There are many more cases of Chelsea being “pimped out” for her parents. I will research this further and post more later.

Be forewarned, there are plans in the works for Chelsea’s future. I predict that she will seek political office sometime in the next eight years. That way future generation can continue to bask in the glow that is the Clintons. The only problem is that the glow may be from the holocaust that will occur if her mother ever gets to the White House.

Leprosy Outbreak In Northwest Arkansas

It is being reported in numerous media sources that a leprosy outbreak is occuring the the town of Springdale, Arkansas.

Leprosy is virtually unheard of any more in the world. The majority of cases reported worldwide occur in the Marshall Islands. Guess where the largest number of Marshallese people, outside the Marshall Islands, resides? The answer is Springdale, Arkansas.

How can a disease that occurs in the third world see an outbreak in the USA? The answer to this question is "Immigration."

I do not care of these infected people came to the USA legally or illegally. This is another reason that the USA needs to place severe restrictions on immigration to this country.

When immigrants went through Ellis Island, they were screened for disease. If it was determined they were infected with any disease, they were quarantined or sent back to their country of origin.

This is another reason to check the health status of everyone entering the USA. This could end up infecting the entire region.

It is time for the USA to stop being the final destination for all the retched refuse of the world. If their own country cannot care for them, do not expect the USA to act as their surrogate.

I would support a law to have all illegal immigrants, when they are arrested, to be tested for disease.

This insanity has to stop. If not, the entire United States is going to look like Tijuana, Mexico, or worse.

Romney Drops Out, Now There Is Three

Mitt Romney today suspended his campaign for President of the United States. With his withdrawal, three candidates remain in the hunt for the Republican nomination; John McCain, Mike Huckabee and Ron Paul.

I do not see Huckabee or Paul as being a challenge to McCain. The nomination is effectively his.

That is where my problem lies. I do not view McCain as a true conservative. I feel he is a RINO.

I still do not know what to do. I cannot support McCain with his view on immigration. I will have to study on this a bit more.

Still A Bit (Actually a Bunch) Under The Weather

I am still under the weather. I have not felt this bad in a long time. I think I am going to rethink a flu shot next year.

There is a great deal I want to post, but a short post is all I can manage this evening. I even got a substitute for tomorrow and Friday as I had trouble getting through my classes today.

When I am better, I will get back to posting. Take care and stay healthy. I would not want anyone (including a liberal Democrat) to feel that way I do.

Take care.

Super Tuesday 2008

Today is Super Tuesday. Many people will be casting their vote as to whom they will support in their political party.

I am a bit under the weather, so this post is going to be short. I think I got the flu. I guess my decision not to get a flu shot this year is catching up with me.

More on Super Tuesday later.
