Joy Behar appologizes for Christianity comment

It is being reported in various media outlets that Joy Behar apologized for her anti-Christianity comments. If she had been a Conservative, the "talking heads" and the "Left" would be calling for her job.  But since she is a liberal, she gets off with a slap on the wrist.

I AM BACK....and Common Core MUST go!

After a very long absence, I am back. I have been dealing with a large number of issues for over a year and am thinking about getting of education.

I have been in education for over 36 years and I think the time is near to call it a career.

Never mind about that for now. I need to expound on this for a bit.

Common Core is coming to a school near you. It is inevitable.

I just informed about this article from a former student and it is scary.

We need to do everything and anything possible to kill the ugly beast that is Common Core.

It is not in the best interest of children and education.

George Zimmerman found "Not Guilty" in death of Trayvon Martin

Last week, a jury of six women found george Zimmerman "Not Guilty" in the death of Trayvon Martin.

All I can say is thank goodness.

In my humble opinion, the facts could not allow an intelligent person to come to any other conclusion.

This is not the last we will hear the names "Trayvon Martin" and "George Zimmerman."

I expect more cases with both these young men's names involved for years to come.

Ya got trouble, my friend, right here, I say, trouble right here in......EGYPT

Didn't the Current Temporary Resident of the White House give these guys billions of dollars along with arms and jet fighters?

Things are getting crazy over there.

Seems PBo has backed the wrong side.

Carney: Protests not directed at the United States

You have to be kidding me (and everyone else). If you believe this propanganda, then you most surely are a supporter of the Current Temporary Resident of the White House and need to put down whatever you are smoking!!!

Carney: Protests not directed at the United States

'This is not a case of protests directed at the United States writ large or at U.S. policy, this is in response to a video that is offensive to Muslims.'

I am BACK!!!

It has been so long since I made a meaningful post that I cannot actually remember when and where it was.

I have not been feeling well for a while and just didn't feel like doing anything.

Well, I am BACK and will try to post on a regular interval.

Much is going on in the world...and TEXAS!!!

Obama is still screwing things up!!!

The liberals are still trying to force their minority opinions, lifestyles and ridiculous ideas down our throats.

My opinions on these and other issues will be forthcoming!!

Michele Backmann Annoucne Run for POTUS; Has 1st Gaffe

Representative Michele Bachmann kicked off her presidential campaign today in Waterloo, Iowa.

In a speech, she was quoted;

"Well what I want them to know is just like, John Wayne was from Waterloo, Iowa. That's the kind of spirit that I have, too."

The only problem is that John Wayne was from Winterset, Iowa, not Waterloo, Iowa.

Serial killer John Wayne Gace was from Waterloo, Iowa.

You can read a copy of the article in The Washington Times by clicking here and watch a clip (posted below) from the event which was found on YouTube.





Bachmann juts lost me as a supporter. Anyone who is running for POTUS needs to have their facts straight, and I do not care that she is a Republican.

I felt Barack HUSSEIN Obama (aka Little Barry Soetoro, Oprah's Love Child, The Boy Wonder, BO, The Big ZERO, P Bo) messed up when he stated he had campaigned in "57 states." Backmann deserves no slack either.

"You may be right that people say: 'You know what, we had Obama. He was inexperienced. The guy had great rhetoric, sounded good, looked good, but has turned out to be an utter disaster. I want someone where I have confidence and credibility that they're up to the job and that I can trust what they tell me.'" - Karl Rove

Texans Head to New York To Get Same-Sex Marriages

The news is awash with legalization of same-sex marriages in New York state.

In an article from the Houston Chronicle, gays and lesbians are headed to the Empire State to get hitched.

The only thing is such marriages are not recognized in Texas.

I really do not care what two consenting adults to behind closed doors, this is just another case of the government granting creditability to something that the majority of Americans are against.

Marriage is and always has been a union between a man and a woman.

If two people want to "hook up," then that is none of my business, but this decision in New York is wrong.

There are no two ways around it.

Welcome to a United States of American under liberal indoctrination thanks to Barack HUSSEIN Obama and his absent minded followers.

Obama Eyeing Another Chicago "Buddy" to Run ATF

NewsMax.com is reporting that the Obama administration is in talks this week with Andrew Traver, who could replace the current head of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), a man gun-rights groups have railed against as being hostile to their cause.

This is just what we need. Another Obama intellectual liberal making decisions about our constitutional rights.

Obama won't release bin Laden death photos

President Barack HUSSEIN Obama ordered grisly photographs of Osama bin Laden in death sealed from public view on Wednesday, declaring, “We don’t need to spike the football” in triumph after this week’s daring middle-of-the-night raid.
Here are some thoughts, at least from my mind:

1. If Bush was still POTUS, the Press and the Democrats would be DEMANDING the release of the photos. I have to wonder about this group in charge.

2. Why annouce he was unarmed? Just annouce he resisted and was dispatched.

3. Why annouce you collected a treasure trove of intel from the home?
When the Brits recovered an Egnima machine from a U-boat, they did not tell the Germans.

4. They should follow Israel's line on questions 'Neither Confirm or Deny"

5. Why even annouce what specific group of soldiers executed the mission? What purpose does it serve to give the enemy any insight on your capabilities?

6. I would not be surprised if the SEAL Team Six are hosted by the White House.

Austin Anti-Abortion Group Defends Obama Billboard

A Texas anti-abortion group on Saturday defended its billboard campaign on Chicago's South Side that uses an image of President Barack Obama, while community groups said they hope to encourage residents to talk frankly about women's health in low-income neighborhoods.

Click here to read the story in the Houston Chronicle.

I really don't see anything wrong with this billboard.

On the other hand, the brain damaged supporters of The Current Temporary Resident of the White House are probably up in arms.

To that, I say "WHO CARES?"

Teaching: Wisconsin and Texas: FOOD FOR THOUGHT

All this mess going on with the teachers in Wisconsin made me think.

What if a similar thing happened here in Texas.

Well, it may be closer than one thinks.

At my school, we have already been told we were going to have to pick up extra responsibilities next year, class sizes may be larger and all departments and programs should expect a 15% budget cut. We have also been told we will be under a hiring freeze for at least the next two years.

I understand the need for these moves. We have just so much money and everyone needs to cut back.

But when I see "certain personal" getting PREMO assignments and an overblown top-heavy administration staff, one begins to question the motives.

Why does a school need NINE assistant principals? Why does a school need EIGHT counselors? Why does a school need curriculum and content specialists? Why does a school need consultants to come into the school and tell them what they are doing wrong and how to teach?

We need to get back to the basics: TEACH!!!!

If a student messes up: PUNISH HIM OR HER!!!!

Let the teachers teach! That is what they went to college for (well, at least some of them).
That brings up my next point: ALTERNATIVE CERTIFICATION!

We need to get most of these hacks out of the classroom.

Most do more damage than they are worth.

After 33 years, I am beginning to think I am too old for this shit!!!!

Federal Appeals Court Upholds UT-Austin Admissions Standards

Hot off the press in the Houston Chroncile from the AP:

A federal appeals court has ruled that the consideration of race and ethnicity in the admissions standards at the University of Texas at Austin is legal.

The three-judge 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals panel in New Orleans upheld on Tuesday a 2008 lower-court ruling that UT didn't infringe on the civil rights of two white, female students who were refused admission to that year's freshman class.

Abigail Fisher and Rachel Michalewicz had alleged that the university violated their constitutional right to equal protection.

Patricia Ohlendorf, UT legal affairs vice president, said she was pleased with the ruling. The women's attorney, Bert Rein of Washington, D.C., said he was disappointed in the outcome.

It is amazing to me that people who are not academically prepared to attended a school like UT are allowed admittance in order for the school to be PC fashionable. I wonder how many of those admitted under the "race and ethnicity in the admissions standards" finish their degrees and are prepared for the world? Very few, I would bet!!!

This was the music of my youth. Being a trumpet player, I LOVED listing to Chicago, Blood, Sweat and Tears, and Chase.

Chase cut three albums and I had two of them growing up. They are somewhere in the house and I may dig them out sometime.

In the meantime, I will enjoy listening to them on YouTube.

No matter how they try, the Green Hornet movie will never measure up to the original.

Enjoy the ORIGINAL opening!

The opening for the ORIGINAL I Spy. Not that crap movie with Eddie Murphy.

Kelly Robinson and Alexander Scott were the best team of spies, even better than The Man From Uncle.

Enjoy.

The Wild Wild West: Season 2 Opening

This is the opening where James West punches the woman after the kiss. I always figured she deserved it. After all, if she messed with James West, she got what she deserved. By the way: In no way shape or form was Will Smith EVER James West. Robert Conrad WAS James West.

Continuing: An opening like this could never happen in today's PC world. Some “person” would raise all kinds of grief about abusing a woman. Oh well, welcome to the world under Obama and the panty waisted liberals.

ENJOY

A Unique Prespective on the Repeal of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell"

I read a comment posted on a story in the Houston Chronicle about the repeat of Don't Ask, Don't Tell.

It was written by a poster named "ThatsMyMomma"

Please tell me what you think.

Col. Jessep: Son, we live in a world that has walls, and those walls have to be guarded by MEN with guns. Who's gonna do it? You? You, I didn't think so! I have a greater responsibility than you could possibly fathom. You weep for gays, and you curse the Marines.You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know. That DADT, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives. You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall, you need me on that wall. We use words like honor, code, loyalty. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said thank you, and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon, and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a darn what you think gays you are entitled to.

The Beginning Of The End For Barack HUSSEIN Obama

I was doing some reading this morning and came across this comment on a website.

An opinion I read the other day said that the Republicans have informed Barack Obama that in January, they are willing to use their majority in the House of Representatives to subpoena Obama’s birth certificate from Hawaii. And that Obama knows that will prove that he is not a natural-born citizen eligible to be president.

He also stated that Obama has agreed to go along with the Republican agenda for the next 2 years in order to avoid a constitutional crisis over the presidency. Also, Obama had to agree not to run for a second term.

Do you think that might be true, and that Obama caving on the tax increases on the rich is just the first step in trying to hide his ineligibility to be president?

It certainly give me food for thought.

CRIMINAL ALIENS Rallying in Support of DREAM Act

This is the scene outside the office of Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison office by a group rallying in support of DREAM act.

They gathered downtown to ask Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison to vote for the bill, which would provide a path to citizenship for some criminal aliens.

The intersting fact is that Kay Bailey was not even in town (she was in DC). And idiots like this want to get an education in the USA.

I think the gene pool needs to get a bit deeper before we allow these people to get into our country, much less get LEGAL employment in our country.

Red State Update: Murfreesboro vs. Muslims

A proposed Islamic center and mosque in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, has become a hot-button political issue and made national headlines.Construction vehicles used to break ground for the mosque were vandalized and one was set afire.

A day later, the Rutherford County Sheriff's Office investigated a report about shots fired at the site. A candlelight vigil was later held In response to the mosque violence. Jackie and Dunlap finally have remained strangely silent on these events in their hometown... until now. It's Red State Update vs. Murfreesboro vs. Muslims.

T.S. Hermine To Hit South Of Texas-Mexico Border

Tropical Storm Hermine is strengthening and headed toward the northwestern Gulf coast on Monday.

She will probably make landfall around midnight just south of the U.S.-Mexico border.

It looks like the Houston region will not get a direct hit, but we are going to get some major rain in the 24-36 hours.

Southeast Texas will see some rain from the outer bands of Hermine, and the National Weather Service has issued a flash flood watch for the greater Houston area.

Widespread totals of 1 to 3 inches of rain are likely, with up to 8 inches in isolated areas.

There is a small chance of tornadoes along and just inland from the Gulf, and tides along the upper coast will be 2 to 2.5 feet above normal, peaking tonight or early tomorrow.

In any case, we will be HIGH but certainly NOT DRY!!!
