Barney Frank - Abject Failure

Barney Frank will be stepping down after this year. Thank goodness! Just watch this video, from 2008 where then President Bush warned Congress of the problems with Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. Self righteous buffoon Barney Frank objected, and matter of fact saw no issues with either one. Now we know the rest of the story.

Herman Cain for President in 2012!

It is about time a candidate for President talk honestly and open and directly to the heart of problems. We would truly be a blessed nation if Cain was able to secure the Office of President. I believe that he could heal the past racism due to our history of slavery, lack of black citizen rights in the 60s, and current economic differences between whites and blacks. What a true American hero, who is ready to stand up and fight for America and American values. God Bless Herman Cain!

Interesting Indictment of Jobs' Actual Performance at Apple

One never wants to trample someone who is deceased, however, I do like TRUTH. I like truth even if it hurts you. Not many people do, and most run and hide from the truth, especially if it condemns them to improper behavior. In this article from Gawker.com, authored by Ryan Tate, we see deep inside the real Apple computer, and we wonder how this kind of behavior and treatment of individuals can be allowed to happen in the first place.

Before he was deposed from Apple the first time around, Jobs already had a reputation internally for acting like a tyrant. Jobs regularly belittled people, swore at them, and pressured them until they reached their breaking point. In the pursuit of greatness he cast aside politeness and empathy. His verbal abuse never stopped.

Jobs had his share of personal shortcomings, too. He has no public record of giving to charity over the years, despite the fact he became wealthy after Apple's 1980 IPO and had accumulated an estimated $7 billion net worth by the time of his death. After closing Apple's philanthropic programs on his return to Apple in 1997, he never reinstated them, despite the company's gusher of profits.

Steve Jobs created many beautiful objects. He made digital devices more elegant and easier to use. He made a lot of money for Apple Inc. after people wrote it off for dead. He will undoubtedly serve as a role model for generations of entrepreneurs and business leaders. Whether that's a good thing or a bad thing depends on how honestly his life is appraised.

The truth is always better than fiction! Read on!

Steve Jobs RIP

Apple founder Steve Jobs has passed away. Many tributes are going out to him, and no wonder. Steve Jobs is the ultimate American entrepreneur. He is truly a model by which we should all admire. He founded a company with bold ideas, and little money. He worked very hard to climb the ladder, creating products and a company that even in hard times, makes huge profits. He created a company that provides products that an entire industry copies. He did it all his way, regardless of nay sayers. Even while he was very sick, he worked hard, and continued to lead a company that has gotten better, larger, yet more nimble, and at the same time more financially secure. Even though he was loved by liberals, his ideas were hardly even close to liberal idealism. Liberals believe that everyone else owes them something, but Steve Jobs didn't buy that nonsense, he knew you had to reach for what you wanted, work hard, and never say never. He was a true conservative, a real modern American! Steve, thanks for making computing fun, and bringing multimedia to our fingertips.

Hollywood Flunky Copy Cats = Paramount!

It just came to my attention that Hollywood, namely Paramount Pictures, has decided to remake Footloose. This is the classic movie that stars Kevin Bacon as a city slicker who moves to a small town, to face a sad fact that dancing is illegal. He fights to legalize the dancing, and tries to convince civic leaders why they should side with him. This was a great feel good movie. I left the theater wanted to dance (that says alot for me who has 2 left feet). So Paramount decides to remake the old movie, with new characters and similar if not exact same old story. I ask why? Can't Paramount come up with any new material? Why remake old movies into new movies? I know it is dollars, but this strategy won't last for long. Why not just take the old original movie and re-release it, saving production time and schedules. They could digitize the old movie, clean it up, and re-release it. Just seems silly to me to redo everything. Come on Hollywood come up with some original ideas. You could remake Wizard of OZ (yet again) and use the great special effects from George Lucas.

Tea Party Under Attack

I just signed a petition standing with the Tea Party against the Left's hostile attacks. The Left has resorted to calling the Tea Party "terrorists" and calling for Tea Party "SOBs" to be "taken out."

I'm staking a stand to oppose such attacks. Please go here to sign your petition and request your free "I Am The Tea Party" key ring tag:

Footage from Tsunami in Japan - March 11 2011

This footage is somehwat scary, and so you need to be warned that this could spark fear or anxiety. On the other hand, it is a documented record of what happened after the earthquake in Japan, and interesting to view in the safety of ones home.

Yu Muroga was doing his job making deliveries when the 11 March 2011 earthquake hit in Japan. Unaware, like many people in the area, of how far inland the Tsunami would travel, he continued to drive and do his job. The HD camera mounted on his dashboard captured not only the earthquake, but also the moment he and several other drivers were suddenly engulfed in the Tsunami. He escaped from the vehicle seconds before it was crushed by other debris and sunk underwater. His car and the camera have only recently been recovered by the police. The camera was heavily damaged but a video expert was able to retrieve this footage.

Shawn Michaels - Pro Wrestling Legend - Interview

Times Atlas of the World Caught in Global Warming Lie!

Recent satellite images of Greenland make it clear that there are in fact still numerous glaciers and permanent ice cover where the new Times Atlas shows ice-free conditions and the emergence of new lands,' they say in a letter that has been sent to the Times. Others have pointed out that if 15 percent of Greenland ice cover had been lost, then sea levels would have risen by 1 meter.

IRS and Tax Return

The IRS sent back my tax return. Seems as though I answered one of the questions wrong.

In answer to the question, 'Do you have any dependents?',

I listed:

12 million illegal immigrants, 10 million crack heads, 20 million unemployed bastards too lazy to work, 140,000 people in 133 penal establishments, 2 million leftovers from Katrina, half of Mexico, all of the Senate, and most of the House of Representatives.

Apparently, this wasn't an acceptable answer.

Apple Sues Samsung - Blocks Galaxy Tab

New Toyota Tacoma for 2012

Looks like while some major players are bowing out of the mid size truck market, Toyota has upped the stakes. This newly redesigned Tacoma is an eye catcher, with some major mods to the front end and interior. I really like the changes, and would definitely consider this one. Toyota vehicles have always seemed very ugly to my tastes, but not this time. I am hoping that the cab is roomy and the power train has more of the first word, power!

Macs No Longer Beginner Friendly

This Extreme Tech article says it all, Macs may no longer be beginner user friendly. They may no longer be the envy of personal computer users, and they may no longer be the unattainable pie in the sky. Thankfully we can all keep Snow Leopard until Apple changes this error. Or we can load Windows on the PC based Macs and shrug off this fanciful test down the Apple road.

Happy 30th Birthday DOS

Happy 30th Birthday to Dos, the OS (if you can call it that, ok I guess we will) that I learned how to program on, and which gave me a hobby that turned into a career. Thanks DOS, IBM and Microsoft.

Another Anti Mac OSX Lion Article - How To Make Lion More Like Snow Leopard

I am actually shocked, many articles and blog posts are cropping up about how to make Mac OSX LION v10.7 look and act more like Snow Leopard v10.6. I wonder how many people are disappointed with their $30 investment, just to allow Apple to make money and get the OS right by trial and error in a few service packs from now. I changed from a PC to the Mac over 4 years ago. I was and still am a Windows PC System Admin. My experience on the Mac has mostly been positive, and to this point I think a great decision. It seems to be motivated by profit, instead of the noble reasons of making things better for us all. However, during these times when Apple decides it wants to force interface changes or OS changes that really shake the basic core foundation of what computing is all about, I question the decision. I like the Mac OSX because it is based on a very strong underlying UNIX operating system, with normally clean multitasking, and robust well designed applications. I also really enjoy the normal PC mouse and interface, with Windows, that I control, versus Apple controlling them for me. I guess I just like freedom. The Mac has provided me freedom from political decisions in the computer world for 4 years. But LION is a purely political OS decision that strives to force us into an upgrade box that is controlled by the mother ship. I don't like that. I guess I should have expected that from a corporation run by Liberals, which wants to tell it's customers what is best, instead of having the customers tell the company. I can cite many recent decisions in the last year that seem to ignore what we want. Many will say that LION is the future. Maybe on a cell phone or MP3 player, but not on my desktop. I choose to think for myself, and use what I want, when I want to use it. You should also use what you want, and not be forced into upgrades for eye candy sakes. I wonder what will happen when the iPod and iPhone die off, as all things eventually do, and Apple will have to succumb to what the customers want once again. But will the customers care? Microsoft has a HUGE opportunity right now to finish off the Mac. Lets see if they take advantage of this bungle by Jobs.

Mac OSX Lion is slower than Snow Leopard

If Microsoft were to unleash a slower operating system on the masses, even if for a measly $30, there would be class action lawsuits. But the mesmerized youth who have been sold by slick marketing and cheap price tags, insist on spending money for slow software, and then attempt to disable features they don't want, that if left at the Snow Leopard version, would be $30 cheaper, and basically be the same operating system feature wise. I don't mind people upgrading for a reason, but this upgrade for the sake of giving Apple more money in their slush fund doesn't make sense to me. Take a look at the comparison, Snow Leopard wins in all but one comparison for speed.

Mac OSX Lion Review

Wow, this is a great review of the new Mac OSX Lion Operating System. The author, John Siracusa, knows his stuff, and provides you an in depth look at new features and highly technical details about how the OS operates, the file structure, and more. Not just another internet fluff piece or fanboy post. This is a must see for any technical expert, Mac fan, or person interested in Macs at all. Matter of fact, even if you are a PC user, this will lend insight into the Mac world. I love the questions posed for this $30 upgrade! I myself don't really want my Mac to be an iPhone, and my question is, if you can turn off all the IOS functions, why get it at all? You decide!

He was one of only 2 people that would jump off the top rope onto an opponent. Today this standard created by Macho Man, is expected of all superstars in wrestling.

Obama's Birth Certificate - Fake or Real?

Alot sure has been happening around the world, Bin Laden dead, Japanese Tsunami and Nuclear Reactor troubles, Terror Alerts high, and Obama Birth Certificate. Of the latter, take a look at this supposed actual Birth Certificate. It is obviously edited, though I can not speak for it being fake or real, if it is doctored, it can not be valid. The background is layered on, and the original background removed. I have to ask why? After all this time, a few years, Obama releases something and it looks like crap. Obviously it is doctored, but why, and why release something of such poor quality? Why not a scan of the actual original, undoctored? That is the question? What is this rogue President hiding behind?

IBM Super Computer at DOE - So what?

I see all kinds of articles like this. Seems IBM has developed a Super Duper World's Fastest computer, for the Department of Energy. Wow. Ok.. Now so what? Can it run Mac OSX? Can it even run Windows 7? Can you do your taxes on it? Alot of stats are thrown at us, like how many teraflops it can do. Ok, but is that on real data? Is the computer actually useful? I never get answers to my questions in any high tech articles. They always want to bore us to death with speed calculations and teraflop numbers. How about real world features? My Mac, for instance, can capture video from an external VHS source, or I am able to run every single app on my Mac simultaneously, every one of my 204 apps. It is fun, try it! I also like pushing the envelope on the PC world. I believe the more apps that are running and open, are a real test of performance. Hmm, or maybe of quickly can an email be sent, or received. How about how quickly a single app opens? These are real world challenges. Ok so the IBM system is fast, but is it practical, and useful? Lets see that in an article for once. By the way, it won't be operational until 2012. Geez, talk about vapor ware.

Idiot Blogger from Washington Post

This is what happens when Idiots from the blogosphere enter TV. You get Ezra Klein. Absolutely incredible, he claims "the US Constitution has no binding power on anything". When liberal blowhards think like this nut job, might as well jump from the closest tall building or bridge. So called educated ass clowns like Ezra have absolutely no idea what they are saying, and it is even amazing that he dresses himself in the morning. Is this a stunt to get air play or blog hits? I sure hope so.

The US Constitution is simply the rule of law. Only the guidebook to a law abiding nation, but I guess none of that matters, and we can run around and do anything we want to regardless of something called principles or morals. Yes, toss all of it out, and watch these turds squirm when all hell breaks loose.

Great article about the pitfalls of a Windows user trying to switch to the Mac. Yeah, Macs are great, cool, high quality, expensive and supposedly chic, but this guy took some liberal license and added some humor. Mac nut jobs from all over jumped on the attack Joshua bandwagon. Funny how we get so passionate about a computer system, yet allow politicians to steal our liberty. Well, take a look at the articles from the Huffington Post, opening salvo. Then do read the part 2 response on what happened after he posted that article. I do not see the connection to Adam Lambert, 2 years ago, American Idol Winner, and fantastic vocalist.

Lost Apollo 11 Moonwalk tapes restored

A team of multimedia experts have been working since 2003, to restore the footage from the Apollo 11 moon landing. They basically take the old black and white footage and clean it up. Interesting that the original footage tapes were deemed lost, when NASA figured out they recorded over them in the 1980's. This is a prime example of why government is in efficient and wasteful, devoid of intelligent life. Obviously the tapes should have been treated as historic, but no, the brainiac engineers ay NASA recorded over them. Fortunately the converted original broadcast was also captured in Australia. Funny, this is where we got the footage to correct. Even in 1969 the feds couldn't do anything right.

Thankfully a version of the video has been restored, and a portion can be seen here.

Stand Up for WWE

The WWE, aka World Wrestling Entertainment, is under political biased attack. This due to the fact Linda McMahon, former CEO and wife to WWE President Vince McMahon, are under the political magnifying glass from wacky liberal opponent Richard Blumenthal.

I have to admit that in my 40 years of watching WWWF, WWF and now WWE, I have never witnessed criminal behavior. Pro Wrestling is a business, and it acts accordingly and proper, as far as I can tell. It offers a rich benefits package and handsome salary, to those who can actually qualify to perform in ring or on air. I read over the attacks and the WWE supplied facts, and they seem correct from my knowledge of the WWE. I suggest that those interested in electing Richard Blumenthal, consider the attacks and lies of a desperate man.

President's socialist takeover must be stopped - Washington Times

Jeff Kuhner from the Washington Times, calls for the Immediate Impeachment of Obama. This is way overdue, and someone should have asked these questions months if not a year or two ago. If we would have had information, that is locked away, hidden in secret files, by the Obama administration, we would never have elected this pathologic liar.

President Obama has engaged in numerous high crimes and misdemeanors. The Democratic majority in Congress is in peril as Americans reject his agenda. Yet more must be done: Mr. Obama should be impeached.

He is slowly - piece by painful piece - erecting a socialist dictatorship. We are not there - yet. But he is putting America on that dangerous path. He is undermining our constitutional system of checks and balances; subverting democratic procedures and the rule of law; presiding over a corrupt, gangster regime; and assaulting the very pillars of traditional capitalism. Like Venezuela's leftist strongman, Hugo Chavez, Mr. Obama is bent on imposing a revolution from above - one that is polarizing America along racial, political and ideological lines. Mr. Obama is the most divisive president since Richard Nixon. His policies are Balkanizing the country. It's time for him to go.

The End Of The Rule Of Law

The End Of The Rule Of Law

August 2, 2010 by Bob Livingston


Some call the Barack Obama administration progressive. Some call it socialist. Other terms used are Marxist and communist.

I have called it fascist and corporatist in the past. Now I’ll just call it Evil.

That’s because the rule of law is dead in America. Now we have the rule of man—or government agency. The rule of man—or government agency—is a rule of Evil because it knows only the moral bounds of those making the rules. And it’s evident this administration, its appointments and its goals are amoral, if not immoral.

In America there is a Federal law that makes being in the United States illegally illegal. There is a requirement in the law that those who are not United States citizens but are here legally must carry papers designating their legal status.

That law is not enforced. Why? Someone decided not to. Granted it hasn’t been enforced for some time, maybe since its enactment in the 1940s, but it is a law and it should be enforced or changed. Were we under the rule of law it would be.

In Arizona the legislature followed the rule of law—and the will of its citizens—and passed an immigration law, subsequently signed by Governor Jan Brewer, that mirrored the U.S. law. However the Obama administration made it plain it would not only not help Arizona enforce its law it would work actively against its enforcement. It sued to stop the law from being enacted. It ordered its Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Division not to pick up any illegals Arizona arrested under the law.

What you have is the Federal government prohibiting a state from enforcing a law the Federal government has refused to enforce. Obama decided the law was contrary to his self interest. Obama became the law.

The rule of law was dead and the rule of man—or government agency—had triumphed.

The administration’s challenge of the law was upheld by Federal Judge Susan Bolton and the law gutted and effectively stopped on the day before it was set to take effect. That’s not a surprise. Federal judges, after all, are entities of the government and have come to regularly strike down laws passed by the people.

Bolton, appointed by Democrat Bill Clinton, is probably now hoping for a promotion to the Ninth Circuit, or perhaps to the Supreme Court. With the way Obama hands out job offers, perhaps she’s already been promised one.

Notice that Federal judges rarely strike down laws passed by the fascist elected class contrary to the people’s wishes—or the Constitution.

And while the U.S. Justice Department was working to get Arizona’s legally-passed and lawful immigration law struck down it was doing nothing to require sanctuary cities—those which provide safe harbor to law breakers—to enforce the current immigration law.

The rule of man—or government agency—strikes again.

Meanwhile, thousands of acres of Arizona are now declared off limits to Americans and ceded to Mexican drug cartels and human traffickers. Calls for assistance by local law enforcement to take back their territory—U.S. territory—are ignored by this Evil administration.

On July 23 the Mexican drug cartel Los Zetas crossed into Texas and commandeered two ranches just outside of Laredo. The ranchers, thankfully, escaped without injury. Local law enforcement, outgunned and outmanned by a paramilitary group trained by U.S. agents, don’t know what to do to remove Los Zetas and return the ranches to their owners. Calls for Federal help have gone unheeded. You probably have not even heard about this. The mainstream media didn’t report the incident.

Obama has decided enforcing our Southern border is contrary to his interests. He told Senator Jon Kyl (R-Ariz.) that he was not interested in border enforcement because if border enforcement was stepped up Republicans would be reluctant to move on comprehensive immigration reform.

The rule of man—or government agency—is sovereign.

The Obama Justice Department under Attorney General Eric Holder—who has called Americans a nation of cowards when it comes to race—threw out charges against three members of the New Black Panther Party (NBPP) who were convicted of intimidating voters outside a Pennsylvania voting booth. Some of those same NBPP members have called for the killing of “white cracker babies.”

The Obama Justice Department turned a blind eye.

The rule of man—or government agency—takes precedence.

Ignoring the Constitution Congress passed a healthcare reform bill—dubbed Obamacare—against the will of the majority. It will impose onerous taxes and regulations on the citizens and result in rationing of substandard healthcare and higher prices.

Obama, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) are the new Axis of Evil. They pushed the bill through despite massive grassroots protests, and when asked where in the Constitution they got the authority, they scoffed.

The rule of man—or government agency—is supreme. The Axis of Evil knows this.

Seeking to drive up energy costs and limit the amount of energy resources available to Americans, Obama and his Axis of Evil cohorts want to pass a Cap and Trade bill. Obama is on record and on video acknowledging such a bill will “necessarily cause energy costs to skyrocket.”

Fascists hoping to secure their re-election have become hesitant to embrace a comprehensive energy tax bill before November, but hold out the prospect of passing it after the election. The Axis of Evil wants it done as soon as it’s politically feasible—even if that means during a lame duck session of Congress.

If that fails the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has said it will enact its own version of Cap and Trade. There is no provision for such a thing in the Constitution. That no longer matters.

The rule of man—or government agency—trumps all.

After several false flag terrorist events on airliners the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) began installing backscatter x-ray machines—naked body scanners—in airports and requiring passengers to pass through them before boarding an airplane.

Oh yes, you can decline the cancer-causing dose of radiation, but you must subject yourself to a full-body groping by TSA personnel. Many who have chosen this alternative have described the procedure as being done contemptuously by the agent, as if by declining the irradiation you have somehow offended the agent in charge of your humiliation.

Some who have protested at the vigor with which the agent poked, prodded and felt in the most private of places have then been hauled into back rooms, interrogated as if they were criminals and strip searched. Usually this extra-curricular harassment lasted until the passenger’s plane had long since left the terminal. Some passengers have even been arrested.

Now there is word the TSA wants portable backscatter x-ray machines so they can irradiate and ogle passengers boarding trains and buses and people entering sporting events and concerts.

This is the Evil of the rule of man—or government agency.

For the last several years Federal Reserve policies kept interest rates unjustifiably low, creating a bubble in housing and other sectors of the economy. Large financial institutions, with nothing to lose because of government regulations in place to save them, played fast and loose with investments. They played both sides against the middle and falsified the risk to their investors.

The economy imploded and about 15 million Americans are now out of work, millions more are underemployed, and many have lost their homes, their retirements, their businesses and their dignity.

At the same time, those responsible for regulating those institutions—including members of Congress—received special enrichment deals like low-interest loans and cushy lobbying jobs. The institutions received government bailouts, the members of Congress and the regulators felt no pain, only gain.

In the recently-passed financial reform legislation, pushed by the Axis of Evil and signed into law by Obama last week, is a provision that exempts the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) from disclosing records or information compiled during investigations, even if requested under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). It was FIOA requests by Fox Business Channel that led to the discovery of SEC failures in the Bernie Madoff, R. Allen Stanford and Pequot Asset Management cases that resulted in new charges being filed and a revamp of SEC policies.

The SEC was embarrassed because it had failed to properly investigate those cases. You can be certain it’s no accident those provisions were in the new law.

The financial reform legislation also puts an end to free checking accounts, raises fees for ATMs and makes credit difficult to obtain. It gives the President broad new unconstitutional powers. What it doesn’t do is what the Axis of Evil said it would: reduce the chance that another financial meltdown will occur.

The rule of man—or government agency—prevailed.

As the economy continues to limp along we get mixed signals out of the Axis of Evil and their minions—Ben Bernanke, Timothy Geithner . “Everything is fine.” “We’ve created or saved millions of jobs.” “The economy is on the rebound.” “Green shoots.” “The weakness will continue.” “We need more stimulus.” “Extend tax cuts.” “Repeal tax cuts.”

All the while they are killing jobs and stifling economic growth through stimulus bills, regulation, uncertainty, higher taxes, extended unemployment benefits and outright, overt attempts to destroy the oil industry in America by preventing new drilling in the Gulf of Mexico and on the U.S. mainland.

They don’t warn you of the coming crash. They don’t tell you to buy gold. They deny that inflation is here and hyperinflation is coming. They want you impoverished. They want you subservient. They want you crawling to them in need. They are Evil.

The rule of man—or government agency—protects its own at the expense of the populace.

And Obama surrounds himself with like-minded thinkers, appointing czars over this and that and making unjustified recess appointments—bypassing the Constitutional requirement that cabinet heads be appointed with the advice and consent of the Senate.

And who are these people he’s appointing? They are avowed communists, practicing Marxists, anti-Semitic Islamists, perverts that promote sex with children, homosexual activists, secularists, atheists and radical environmentalists.

Unlike the rule of law, which is color blind and equal, the rule of man—or government agency—is out for one thing: Creating a totalitarian state and advancing the agenda and enrichment of the man (or woman) setting the policy and running the agency.

That is Evil.

Sullivan's SteakHouse - Laurel, Maryland

Hi gang, I want to let you all know of a great little Restaurant/Steak House/Bar in central Maryland, near Laurel off of Route 198. It is called Sullivan's. Very nice proprietor and excellent food for a lunch out excursion, if you happen into the area. Their salads are excellent, and I love the Reuben with fries! Oh and the wings are excellent. You can have some spirits with the food, beer on tap or bottles, and great fresh brewed iced tea. Exceptional prices and food quality. Check out their website, and maybe I will see you in there one day around lunchtime. If I do, your lunch will be on me!

July 16th - Steve Jobs upset Apple iPhone has issues and critics!

Apple iPhone AntennaGate explained by Steve Jobs. He is unhappy that the media is attacking him and his products, he says results and facts prove it is unwarranted. This is also what good politicians go through, good people, and good celebrities. Get used to it Steve. You have even had unwarranted attacks on President Bush, during keynotes. I would suggest that what goes around comes around. How about also fixing the scratching issues that iMacs cause on cds and dvds? Sounds like I feel sorry? Nope, I don't. Welcome to the hard reality of todays extreme media frenzy caused by a vacuum of morales and respect that you used to condone.

New iMac Scratching CDs and DVDs

From the I can NOT believe it department, news is that many consumers who purchased the new iMacs, are getting scratched CDs from the internal factory drive. Seems that the drive exhibits 4 small scartches on the disk upon eject. Seems that little Snow Leopard trapped inside wants to get out! Apple techs have been said to be rude, and indicate that people need to learn how to insert and remove CDs from their drives. Me thinks it is a design flaw with the drive or opening slot, being too thin. The tolerances are tight. Lets hope Apple decides to correct this, versus removing the CD drive all together, which seems to be their plan for the Mac Mini, and Macbook, ala Macbook Air.

Some owners have come up with makeshift solutions, to place tape around the slot to eliminate the scratches, but I am not sold on it being the slot itself, it could be the actual drive inside. Apple confirms they will replace the drive. And have done so for many, to no avail. Others have decided to install an external CD drive with a tray! This could be eliminated if the iMac had a tray CD device, none of my PCs have ever scratched my CDs over the last 10 years.

Rush about Obama and Company

"We face something we've never faced before in the country. We're now governed by people who do not like the country. We have plenty of external threats, enemies across oceans. But we have a threat inside as well. I know we've had liberals. Clinton and Hillary were, and are, pedal-to- the-metal liberals, but they didn't want to destroy things. This bunch does. They make no bones about it. When destruction happens, they don't lift a finger to fix it." -Rush Limbaugh

Obama is actually BRILLIANT, here is what he is doing...

WAYNE ALLYN ROOT: Overwhelm the system

Barack Obama is no fool. He is not incompetent. To the contrary, he is brilliant. He knows exactly what he's doing. He is purposely overwhelming the U.S. economy to create systemic failure, economic crisis and social chaos -- thereby destroying capitalism and our country from within.

Barack Obama is my college classmate ( Columbia University , class of '83). As Glenn Beck correctly predicted from day one, Obama is following the plan of Cloward & Piven, two professors at Columbia University . They outlined a plan to socialize America by overwhelming the system with government spending and entitlement demands. Add up the clues below. Taken individually they're alarming. Taken as a whole, it is a brilliant, Machiavellian game plan to turn the United States into a socialist/Marxist state with a permanent majority that desperately needs government for survival ... and can be counted on to always vote for bigger government. Why not? They have no responsibility to pay for it.

-- Universal health care. The health care bill had very little to do with health care. It had everything to do with unionizing millions of hospital and health care workers, as well as adding 15,000 to 20,000 new IRS agents (who will join government employee unions). Obama doesn't care that giving free health care to 30 million Americans will add trillions to the national debt. What he does care about is that it cements the dependence of those 30 million voters to Democrats and big government. Who but a socialist revolutionary would pass this reckless spending bill in the middle of a depression?

-- Cap and trade. Like health care legislation having nothing to do with health care, cap and trade has nothing to do with global warming. It has everything to do with redistribution of income, government control of the economy and a criminal payoff to Obama's biggest contributors. Those powerful and wealthy unions and contributors (like GE, which owns NBC, MSNBC and CNBC) can then be counted on to support everything Obama wants. They will kick-back hundreds of millions of dollars in contributions to Obama and the Democratic Party to keep them in power. The bonus is that all the new taxes on Americans with bigger cars, bigger homes and businesses helps Obama "spread the wealth around."

-- Make Puerto Rico a state. Why? Who's asking for a 51st state? Who's asking for millions of new welfare recipients and government entitlement addicts in the middle of a depression? Certainly not American taxpayers. But this has been Obama's plan all along. His goal is to add two new Democrat senators, five Democrat congressman and a million loyal Democratic voters who are dependent on big government.

-- Legalize 12 million illegal immigrants. Just giving these 12 million potential new citizens free health care alone could overwhelm the system and bankrupt America . But it adds 12 million reliable new Democrat voters who can be counted on to support big government. Add another few trillion dollars in welfare, aid to dependent children, food stamps, free medical, education, tax credits for the poor, and eventually Social Security.

-- Stimulus and bailouts. Where did all that money go? It went to Democrat contributors, organizations (ACORN), and unions -- including billions of dollars to save or create jobs of government employees across the country. It went to save GM and Chrysler so that their employees could keep paying union dues. It went to AIG so that Goldman Sachs could be bailed out (after giving Obama almost $1 million in contributions). A staggering $125 billion went to teachers (thereby protecting their union dues). All those public employees will vote loyally Democrat to protect their bloated salaries and pensions that are bankrupting America . The country goes broke, future generations face a bleak future, but Obama, the Democrat Party, government, and the unions grow more powerful. The ends justify the means.

-- Raise taxes on small business owners, high-income earners, and job creators. Put the entire burden on only the top 20 percent of taxpayers, redistribute the income, punish success, and reward those who did nothing to deserve it (except vote for Obama). Reagan wanted to dramatically cut taxes in order to starve the government. Obama wants to dramatically raise taxes to starve his political opposition.

With the acts outlined above, Obama and his regime have created a vast and rapidly expanding constituency of voters dependent on big government; a vast privileged class of public employees who work for big government; and a government dedicated to destroying capitalism and installing themselves as socialist rulers by overwhelming the system.

Add it up and you've got the perfect Marxist scheme -- all devised by my Columbia University college classmate Barack Obama using the Cloward and Piven Plan.

DVD Hunter by Joel Ares

Gang, I wanted to let you know of a fantastic application for the Mac (sorry PC pals). It is a DVD library catalog program. Although FREE, it boasts automatic data gathering from the internet, and a barcode scanning option to identify the movie more easily, and add to the database. This is truly a marvel. I scanned a few movies and they were easily added to my library. To scan, that is incredible, you hold the movie up to your isight camera, and it verifies the barcode. Then it connects to Amazon and attempts to gather as much info on the movie as possible. It comes in Snow Leopard, Leopard and Tiger versions.

The author also has Game and Book Hunter programs.

Awesome Arizona Enforces Laws!

With the support of 70 percent of its citizens, Arizona has ordered sheriffs and police to secure the border and remove illegal aliens, half a million of whom now reside there.

Arizona acted because the U.S. government has abdicated its constitutional duty to protect the states from invasion and refuses to enforce America's immigration laws.

Teachers Union is Mad at you in New Jersey?

They wish for your death! Thats right the liberal slanted, left leaning Teachers Union, dislikes the New Jersey Governor so much, they don't want to vote, or discuss, or ponder, like teachers should, they prefer to wish for Death, or hint that his Death could solve their problems. The Feds should investigate, but you and I know they won't. The Union will apologize, and all forgotten. But I won't forget. This is how Socialists think and eventually act. Shameful! It is time to hold these hoods accountable, to force them to teach, and hold them to standards. I know Governor Chris Christie will do just that. He has been delivered to us from God, not some Muslim nation.

Congress Fears Death Threats

So Congress fears death threats? Chicago has been using these tactics for many years, heck Obama can probably explain to his Communist supporters in Congress about what is now happening. It is called backlash, from placing into law, a health care package that doesn't address healthcare, and only limits freedom and liberty. Oh and a little nothing... that the majority of Americans didn't want it. It is a shame it had to come to this, but I sure am glad I am not you. Enjoy the celebrations, you passed healthcare. Have a stiff drink, enjoy the ride. Pay no attention to that Coffin on your lawn, maybe we can just Trick or Treat a few months early. Lighten up crybabies!

November 2010 - A Date that will live in Infamy!

Take a look at this and just remember elections in November 2010.

1. U..S. House & Senate have voted themselves $4,700 and $5,300 raises.
2. They voted to NOT give you a S.S. Cost of living raise in 2010 and 2011.
3. Your Medicare premiums will go up $285.60 for the 2-years
4. You will not get the 3% COLA: $660/yr.
5. Your total 2-yr loss and cost is -$1,600 or -$3,200 for husband and wife.
6. Over these same 2-years each Congress person will get $10,000
7. Do you feel SCREWED?
8. Will they have your cost of drugs - doctor fees - local taxes - food, etc., decrease?
9. NO WAY.

Congress received a raise and has better health and retirement benefits than you or I.


Why should they care about you?
You never did anything about it in the past.
You obviously are too stupid or don't care.
Do you really think that Nancy, Harry, Chris, Charlie, Barnie, et al, care about you?
Send the message to these individuals --- “YOU'RE FIRED!”

In 2010 you will have a chance to get rid of the sitting Congress: up to 1/3 of the Senate and 100% of the House!

Make sure you're still mad in November 2010 and remind their replacements not to screw-up.

It is ok to forward this to your sphere of influence if you are finally tired of the abuse. Maybe it's time for Amendment 28 to the Constitution..

28th Amendment will be as follows:
"Congress shall make no law that applies to the citizens of the United States that does not apply equally to the Senators or Representatives, and Congress shall make no law that applies to the Senators or Representatives that does not apply equally to the citizens of the United States ."

Dose of Truth to Obama, by an Unemployed Healthcare Employee.

This lady at a rally in Ohio knows more about fiscal matters than the President. How can increasing government control, and mandatory health care, hope to decrease costs? Answer, it can't and won't. Now at a time when the economy, not just the American economy, but World economy, are in disarray.. Why would a US President push 1/6 of our economy into a health care mess? Either he is inept, or he is dangerously ruthless.

Avatar Movie Review - The Truth

If you want to know what was behind the movie Avatar, like greed and mind control, this review is the best. Red Letter Media does a great job of reviewing the movie, while highlighting the truth, all while using comedic puns. Very funny!

I didn't hate this movie. I just didn't really like it a lot. I think James Cameron is a great filmmaker and I've liked a lot of his movies, but this one was just a little too simplistic plot wise. It worked with Titanic for some reason, but this one not so much?

Seems pretty straight forward to me!

Scientists Withdraw Sea Level Increase Report

DUH, part 2. Apparently the lies and deceit are so huge they can no longer be covered up. I told a story here once, about a grade school experiment. Our teacher told us to go fetch a big glass of snow, and wanted to know our estimates on where the water would be when the ice melted. To our dismay the ice/water level dropped after the thaw to almost 1/6 of the original volume. We understood that evaporation would also effect the volume, but the results were stunning. Snow and ice expand when frozen, and shrink when thawed, that is undebatable. Why then do "scientists" claim that when the polar caps melt, seas will rise. Just because seas are on the land as glaciers, I still propose they are wrong, and seas will shrink.

Toyota: Dems 'not industry friendly'

Duh!

Internal Toyota documents derided the Obama administration and Democratic Congress as “activist” and “not industry friendly," a revelation that comes days before the giant automaker's top executives testify on Capitol Hill amid a giant recall.

According to a presentation obtained under subpoena by the House Oversight and Government Relations committee, Toyota referred to the “changing political environment” as one of its main challenges and anticipated a "more challenging regulatory" environment under the Obama administration's purview.

George Washington's Birthday Celebration and why!

In this article from the Heritage Foundation, we learn why George Washington's birthday is so important on the 3rd Monday in February, as it has been, will continue to be observed and worth remembering.

Washington wrote extensively and eloquently about the principles and purposes of the American Founding. He was a champion of religious freedom, of immigration, and of the rule of law. His most significant legacy is his Farewell Address of 1796, which ranks with the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution as one of the greatest documents of the Founding. The Farewell Address is best remembered for its counsel about international affairs: Washington recommended commercial relations with other nations but as few political entanglements as possible.

Global Warming Responsible for Large Snowstorms!!!

Come one now, this is Radical Environmentalism at work. Flynn Files demonstrates the absurdity of the NY Times claim by "educated" people that insist Global Warming causes bigger snow storms.

Anecdotal evidence such as a heat wave is proof of the doctrines of the Church of Global Warming to its congregants. A Blizzard, strangely, is too. The New York Times today explains, "Most climate scientists respond that the ferocious storms are consistent with forecasts that a heating planet will produce more frequent and more intense weather events." Most people, thankfully, are not that stupid yet.

Ronald Reagan, we need you back!

If only we had a clear visionary like Reagan to guide us. Instead we have a spend and tax liberal taking us down the bankruptcy road to failure.

Ponder this Statement

"The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the presidency. It will be easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president.

The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails us. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince.

The republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president."

Justice Thomas on WHY Corporations do have 1st Amendment protection!

Thanks God for clear thinkers, with reasoning!

By a 5-to-4 vote, with Justice Thomas in the majority, the court ruled last month that corporations had a First Amendment right to spend money to support or oppose political candidates.

He went on to say...

He added that the history of Congressional regulation of corporate involvement in politics had a dark side, pointing to the Tillman Act, which banned corporate contributions to federal candidates in 1907.

“Go back and read why Tillman introduced that legislation,” Justice Thomas said, referring to Senator Benjamin Tillman. “Tillman was from South Carolina, and as I hear the story he was concerned that the corporations, Republican corporations, were favorable toward blacks and he felt that there was a need to regulate them.”

It is thus a mistake, the justice said, to applaud the regulation of corporate speech as “some sort of beatific action.”
