That Kinky Friedman

You know, Kinky is not of my political persuasion, but he sure is teh funny! Here's a quote from his O'Reilley appearance:

Politics: poli meaning many and tics meaning blood-sucking insects.

Ha!!!!

It's a Two-fer! The ROP vs. Undocumented Workers

I'm watching "Law & Order" re-runs on TNT and boy does the lefty brain indoctrination just smack you in the face!

It's re-run from 2007 "ripped from the headlines" type story. An actress is found hanging in her office and dectectives quickly discover that she received a blow to the head prior to the hanging. Sound familiar? It's the story of the illegal alien who killed the actress and tried to make it look like a suicide.

Of course, the alien is shown as a poor desparate young man who is filled with remorse and didn't mean to do it. He only did it because he was afraid that if he got caught by police, his starving mother and five siblings in Colombia would starve and die. Here's a direct quote:

"most people who live and work here illegally do it out of desperation." Cry me a f*&^ing river.

Oh but there's more. Just for extra flair, just add a dash of anti-Muslim bigotry. You know how Law & Order likes to pull the old bait 'n switch? Well, you see, in the show, the actress wasn't making it acting, so she turned to writing and producing. She is killed right after finishing a movie based on the subjugation of Muslim women in Saudi Arabia, and one of the potential suspects is, wait for it, the handy Muslim sound editor! Of course he's arrested and harrassed and of course, it's Bad Amerikkka's police to blame. They profiled!

But guess who the real culprit is? It's not the sympathetic illegal alien just tryin to make a buck, and it's not the Religion of Peace martyr. No, No, No. It's "good, old fashioned American Greed!" (That's a direct line from the show.) Yep. It's the owner of the construction company who's making a fortune off the illegal alien workers and doesn't want the woman to call the cops, thus bringing the working situation to light. Yep, the muderer is Whitey. The Evil, Greedy, White, American, Capitalist Pig man!

Case closed, and we all sleep easier in our beds knowing that evil whitey is locked up!

The End.

Friday Funnies

Since today is Friday, I've decided to list things that I think are funny. Without further ado:

The Free Credit Report.com commercials

F-R-E-E that spells Free, ...Credit Report dot com, Bay-Bee!






Shepard Smith
I leave the Tee Vee on all day at my office, so I try to leave it on, shall we say, educational things, like Fox News. I usually enjoy Studio B with Shepard Smith because, even though its a news program, the manner in which it is presented is a bit more light-hearted. But what, you ask, is so funny about Shepard Smith? Well look at him!!!! He's downright orange, for crying out loud!

Fart jokes and potty humor

Mullets

The fact that the more O'bama (that's the Irish spelling, in honor of the recent holiday) opens his mouth, the more holes he punches in his sinking ship. Just like McDonalds, I'm Lovin' It!

And lastly, an inside joke, known only to myself and KK Holiday, in honor of today:
He Was Reje-ec-ted, He Was Ne-gle-ec-ted...




Heh.

Yes, I stole that from Instapundit. But it is so appropriate. While perusing Deadspin this morning to get up to date on the NCAA tournament, I ran across this comment in the BYU/A&M thread:
This is a great match-up. One school is in a culturally remote area with weird traditions and has a fanbase fanatically devoted to a cause that outsiders really can't comprehend. The other school is run by the LDS.


I should be annoyed given that I am the most red-assed of Aggies, but damn, I got a good chuckle out of that.

It's funny cuz it's true.

Beer Blogging with the Adams Family

So I'm watching parts 1 and 2 of the HBO miniseries John Adams and I decided that I could not enjoy this momentous event with out the help of Mssr. Adams cousin, Sam Adams. I'm speaking of course, of his delicious beer. Tonight its Chicken Diavolo and Sam Adams beer. How could a Wednesday get any better?

Watching this movie, I find that I feel the weight on my own shoulders that these men must have felt. The question of independence that the Founding Fathers struggled with has never seemed so great a thing to me until now. These men were committing treason, by God. Do you remember learning about the Continental Congress in school as a youngster? I do. I was proud, but it didn't seem to be a big deal. I suppose, looking back, I probably thought that the Founding Fathers knew exactly what they were doing, and exactly what the outcome would be. After all, from my youthful perspective, America was the biggest, baddest country on the planet, and England was just a puny little island full of fairy tales.

The impassioned speech by Mr. Dickinson brings it home to me. I don't know who the actor is who is playing the part, but he is definately believable. You can hear in his voice the fear that all the men in that room must have shared. I mean, my God, England was the most powerful empire in the world and these feuding colonies who could barely get their act together were actually comtemplating givin King George and Parliament a big F*&% You! I'm actually moved to tears.

God Save the American States!
(and delicious Sam Adams beer!)

Yes, I'm a Loser...

and I'm getting back into blogging, by linking...
wait for it...
Drudge.

So last Wednesday I flew to Phoenix for the week, and two days before I left I spent untold amounts of quarters washing and waxing my truck. I flew back in last night, to San Antonio, and proceeded to my truck in Long Term Parking, where my very sweet and long-suffering parents had parked my truck for me earlier in the day. It was absolutely filthy!!!! I assumed that my father had used my truck at the ranch (his is in the shop, since he set it on fire. Yes, I said HE SET IT ON FIRE! Whole 'nother story). Well, I offered the use of the truck to hime, so I would never complain about it, but I was cussin' him all the way home.

And this morning, there's this article on Drudge

The dirty rain left vehicles across San Antonio looking like they’d been taken off-roading in the mud. The cars are covered, but that coating is not quite dust, not quite dirt and not quite mud.


Sorry, Pops!


The Supremes May Have a Hit on Their Hands

I saw on Drudge that the Supremes are likely to uphold the notion that many Americans hold: that the right to keep and bear arms is in fact an individual right.

To me, this is like pointing out the turd in the punch bowl. A simple reading of the 2nd amendment covers both the individual right which shall not be infringed and the collective right of the militia. A five year old could figure this out.

I sincerely hope that the Supremes not only rule in favor of the 2nd amendment, but I also hope that they do so decisively. They should not leave a lot of leeway for governments to over-regulate sale and possession of firearms, much less an outright ban such as the one in D.C.

I believe that if the D.C. ban is overturned and law-abiding citizens are able to arm themselves, we will see a huge drop in crime in that most crime-ridden city that is the District of Columbia.
