Tomorrow, for May Day, labor unions are pushing for a nationwide boycott of businesses that are known to have supported Governor Scott Walker of Wisconsin, going so far as to urge their supporters to go into grocery stores and place stickers on products produced by the offending companies.
Including in this attempted boycott drive are Coors Beer, Sargento Cheese, Johnsonville Brats, and Angel Soft toilet paper.
Aside from the fact that this is wrong on so many levels-and probably illegal to boot-there is something you can do if you celebrate May Day and are a conservative, a Republican, or for that matter just a decent American. Instead of sitting back and doing nothing while these companies are targeted by union thugs, you can strike back. You can go out of your way to patronize these fine companies, as I decided to do for Beltane. But don't limit your patronage to just May Day. Continue your support in the weeks and months ahead. Show the union thugs that you do not approve of them, their goals, and their tactics.
So for May Day tomorrow, enjoy a nice meal of Johnsonville Brats, washed down with some good Coors Beer, along with a nice after dinner snack of Sargento's cheese.
Then, at the end of the day, when it comes time to take a healthy shit, make sure you wipe your ass with a heaping helping of Angel Soft Toilet Paper.

Herman Caib Wins 2012 Presidential Forum In Manchester New Hampshire
So says 69% of the respondents in the poll which saw Tim Pawlenty finishing a distant second, while Mutt RomneyCare floundered and flubbered.
Although I'm still basically a Palin supporter at heart, I have to admit it would be poetic justice if the failure Barak Obama, Presidential White House Lawn Jockey of the race-baiting Democratic Party, was replaced in the Oval Office by Herman Cain, the black Republican who would go on to the be the howling success as President he has been in every other area of his commendable life and career. Not as a black President, but as an AMERICAN president who just happens to be black. You know, the way it should be.
Whatever the future holds, one thing you can be sure of-Herman Cain will be a factor, and an influence in public life and the affairs of the nation for some time to come, long after Barak Obama has retired to a private life of deserved relative obscurity.

Making Lemons Out Of Lemonade-What Else?
This has got to be one of the all time great commercials. Sure, the premise is silly. In between the time dad leaves for work in the morning and comes back home apparently that same evening, little Susie gets funding from venture capitalists for her lemonade stand business, and in the space of a few hours oversees the construction of a multi-story skyscraper for her new business headquarters. By the time poor dad makes it back home and asks where Susie is, he's asked if he has an appointment by a little boy Susie has hired as her secretary. It ends with Susie standing in front of her completed headquarters with a triumphant expression. All of this made possible because dad let her use his Verizon smart phone.
Its silly, but at the same time, its upbeat and positive, as well as funny. The look the little boy secretary gives the father when he asks if he has an appointment to see Susie is priceless.
Unfortunately, in real life, Susie would be in a world of trouble, with the FDA, the EPA, the Labor Department, and God only knows what else. And of course, by the time the fucking IRS was done with her she would wish she had just stayed in her room and played with her dolls that day.

Mitt Romney Makes Serious Gaffe Against The Democratic Party's White House Lawn Jockey
Since we are now into the Beltane Sabbat, this might be an appropriate time to look to see who is for now the most likely nominee to lead the Republican Party against Obama next year. So far, there is no clear front-runner, but it could well be that there is one person we just might be able to eliminate from contention-former Massachusetts Republican Governor Mitt Romney, who says we should hang Obama with his policies.
He then backpedaled from that, insisting that he was talking metaphorically. He knew he had just stepped into deep shit, but as one wag so eloquently put it-
Mitt Romney was backpedaling after suggesting it was time to “hang” President Obama. Actually, Romney meant to say Obama’s policies were the linchpin… no wait, he should have said Obama must to be whipped into shape… that is, Americans shouldn’t be slaves to the Obama administration’s… um, or maybe Obama is a cotton-picking… oh, never mind.
As far as I'm concerned, Romney's only mistake was in referring to Obama's policies as a rope. That fucking rope would be so damn long there's no way you could hang him with it, unless you hung him from the top of the Empire State Building.

Blind Date
I love this commercial. It's cool as hell, but its also just creepy as fuck. I love how "Todd" shows up at the end driving past the woman's home, like some thug cruising for a piece of ass. One hand on the stirring wheel, one hanging out the window-and one on the rear-view mirror.

Is Donald Trump Trying To Be The Post-Modernist Harry Truman?
I don't think even "Give 'Em Hell Harry" would call the Chinese motherfuckers. Certainly not in public, while making a speech and openly mulling a run for the nomination of his party for President. Incidentally, I'm still not convinced Trump isn't, like Truman, a Democrat at heart. He once considered running as a Democrat (I think this was in 2004, but it might have been earlier) and he has a habit of donating to Democrat causes and candidates. I think he's basically a limousine liberal, maybe more of a Blue Dog Democrat. Granted, anything would be am improvement over Obama, but I just don't think Trump is what most of his supporters think he is. Just too much doesn't add up. For one thing, despite what Trump says, the Birth Certificate issue is not that important to most Tea Party people now, nor was it ever. I think he just assumed it was based on media charges. Also, his angst over the Chinese and the Saudis is boilerplate populism that you're just as likely to hear from a Democrat as from a Republican. Remember, unions are upset over the loss of good paying jobs, to the Chinese, and most liberal Democrats resent our ties to the Saudis, who they see, with a great deal of merit, as an oppressive regime that has kept up bound to oil. If we could ditch the Saudis, we would have no choice but to move toward green energy, to their way of thinking. Also, if we left the Middle East, we would have no vital reason or interest to be involved in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict-something else Trump has been strangely silent about.
I'm starting to think Trump is not to be feared. Over time, he will show his true colors. He probably knows its useless to try to take the Democrat nomination from Obama. Otherwise I have no doubt that he would go that route. But since he probably feels that is a lost cause, his only options are either to run as a Republican, or as an independent. The good news is hopefully that after a few weeks, and months, have passed, it will be much more clear where he's coming from. And, if he does run as an independent, I think there's a pretty good chance he'll pull much more votes from the Clinton wing of the Democratic Party-the moderate to conservative and Blue Dog wings-than he will from the GOP.

You Just Can't Be Too Careful
It looks like the wedding of Prince William to his bride Kate Middleton was a howling success, thanks in no small measure to the security steps taken which resulted in more than fifty arrests.
The Brits certainly had their work cut out for them. There were of course the usual concerns regarding Islamic terrorism, but in addition to that, they are always mindful of the sizable percentage of natural born British citizens these days who are leftist radicals. They run the gamut from Islamic sympathizers to environmental extremists. It would be a simple matter for them to mix with the crowd and wait for the most opportune time to work their mischief.
In fact, one of them was spotted fairly quickly. Here he is pictured below.

Obama's Birth Cerificate, Reproduced In Full
I just don't see what all the controversy is about. It looks authentic to me. Well, put it this way, it looks as authentic as anything else that's ever come from Obama. You be the judge. If you can buy his health care bullshit, his immigration nonsense, his taxing and spending atrocities, and his environmentalist abominations, you should be able to accept anything. If you can't buy into any of that stupid leftist horseshit, then this should come as no shock either.

Guess Who's Been Receiving Death Threats
Sila Shain, pictured above, is a Turkish Muslim actress from Germany who recently posed for Playboy.
This isn't even the best picture of her. You can find that one here.
Oh, and those death threats? Unless you're a leftist or a Democrat, or some other snake who's been living under a rock for the last twelve years or more, its probably not even necessary for me to have to tell you where they're coming from.

Obama Born In America After All
As if there was any legitimate question about that in the first place. I will give kudos to Donald Trump for making Obama move to have his long-form birth certificate released by the state of Hawaii, which deserves the lion's share of the blame for this shit to begin with. It is a state law that long-forms can't be released. The state's position is that the short form is standard procedure for attaining driver's licenses and any other matter than requires personal identification. But this should have been an exception from the beginning. It has been a federal law from the foundation of the country that a person who runs for the presidency must provide proof of birth in the US. Period, end of story. What constitutes proof in Hawaii need not be accepted readily outside the state.
But anyway, its over now, so its time to put the Birther BS behind us and focus on real, legitimate issues. It was always a distraction at best. When the best is a distraction, you should know right away nothing good is going to come of it.
Now it's time to concentrate on putting an end to Obama's leftist progressive, big government agenda, hopefully forever.

Boeing Boeing
I've been steaming about this for a few days, and I still don't know what to make of it. How can Obama, and the National Labor Relations Board, possibly justify filing a lawsuit against a top employer like Boeing because they are planning to open a new plant in South Carolina, which is a right-to-work state? It's not as if they are closing down a plant with union workers in order to open one there. And by the way, even if they were, there wouldn't be a damn thing anybody could legitimately do about it. Companies relocate to friendlier business climates all the time. But its beginning to look like Obama plans to put a stop to that for good.
Nevertheless, this is not the case here. The company's plant in the state of Washington is still going strong. Actually, I think it just expanded recently, or not too long ago. No workers are being laid off. The plant in South Carolina is meant as an expansion, not a replacement. So what gives?
As if that were not enough, the new plant in South Carolina will, or would, make use of green energy in the form of sixty acres-yes, I said sixty acres-of solar panels on the roof of the plant. The way Democrats carry on about environmental issues, you would think they would hail this development as an example to emulate. But of course, the corrupt labor unions, one of the special interest groups to whom Barak Obama is nothing more than a mutually owned White House Lawn Jockey, are adamant. South Carolina is joining forces with Boeing in an attempt to hurt the unions, and union workers. Therefore, the NLRB is also filing suit against Governor Hayley and several of her appointees and other government officials on the grounds of-get this-violations of the First Amendment guarantees of Freedom of Association.
Nikki Hayley, the newly elected governor of South Carolina, is incensed at the NLRB's latest action and is going to fight it, as well she should. But let's face it, its going to take more than politics and the courts to settle this nonsense. The only thing that's going to put a stop to this kind of egregious, over-the-top abuse of the free enterprise system by an increasingly monolithic and dictatorial government bureaucracy is one thing and one thing only.
The citizens of the US need to go on "strike". I recommend a boycott on any Made In America product that is made by union labor. "Shop At Walmart" and "Buy Chinese" should be the orders of the day. Not only would that hurt the labor unions and their political lackeys where it really hurts, but it might forestall the latest threats by the Chinese to dump the two trillion dollars in US debt that they currently hold.
Sometimes you have to be willing to surpass the enemy when it comes to dirty, sleazy tactics. Yes, it would add to unemployment and cause grave overall damage to the national economy, but let's face it, we are on the way out now anyway. We are teetering closer to the edge of insolvency, of bankruptcy, and possibly a great Depression like nothing we have ever seen before. Democrats either don't get it or, as I actually suspect, want it to happen so they can impose a more socialist vision on the rest of us, in a way that would be impossible to forestall or resist.
By boycotting union products, we could not only destroy the unions and their stranglehold on our nation and its leaders and bureaucrats, we could actually bring Obama's rotten Administration crashing down to the ground before it brings the whole damn country crashing down with it.
"Look For The Union Label".
Then, buy something else.

Crazy John McCain Conducts His Own Maverick Brand Of Foreign Policy
John McCain has gone to Libya to meet with the rebels opposed to Qaddafi, calling them his "heroes". For now, I'm going to contain my response to a copy and paste of the comment I made at Weasel Zippers-
Wouldn't it be hilarious if they were to kidnap McCain and hold him hostage with demands that we go all out to depose Qaddafi? After that, they could keep him and demand we get the hell out of their country. Then demand billions of dollars worth of foreign aid, etc. McCain's only hope of ever being freed might be through the Israelis. Of course if they kill one civilian doing so, they'd be harangued by this White House. And probably by McCain.
I urge you to go to the linked post at Weasel Zippers, not so much for the post as for the other comments. Like this one-
I hope McCain is captured and tortured..
muslims will soon find out that real Americans wouldn’t trade McCain for a bag of chips… not that muslim terrorist prisoners are worth more than that..
But here's probably my favorite-
John McLame, a man whose time has passed. Why don’t you just switch parties and get it over with Johnnie. The cat’s been out of the bag for awhile now. Take off your burqua of Republicanism and be what iy is that you really are: a stupid liberal Dhimi-rat.
BTW, I’m sure that the folks who served in Iraq will be real happy to learn that a fellow vet is doing all that he can to aid and abett the very people that were killing them in Iraq.
Those are just two of many comments (21 so far) that express similar sentiments about Crazy John McCain. And this is a conservative blog. More importantly, these are conservative commenters.
There's a lesson there, or should be, for the National Republican Party.

Rebecca Black-Death Threats
When you're fourteen years old, the last thing you think about is the possibility of receiving death threats. Yet, unbelievably, YouTube video sensation Rebecca Black, pictured above, has recently experienced this. Not once, but twice, she was recently threatened with death unless she desisted in posting her music on the internet. The Anaheim police are taking the threats seriously enough to put this kid under protective surveillance.
I will not link to her video, "Friday". I did listen to it one time, just to see what all the controversy was about. Frankly, it is indeed an execrable piece of work. Once was more than enough, and I would frankly discourage anyone from viewing it. Just as I can do that in good conscience, anybody else can opt to not listen to it at all. You can take my word and avoid the experience all together, and you can damn sure choose to not view it a second time. If you persist, you have only yourself to blame.
But death threats? Aren't there plenty of crappy adult artists you could threaten? Come on-she's a fucking kid. What the fuck kind of people exist in this world that think its all right to e-mail death threats to a teenage girl just because they think her music sucks?
Frankly, if I were that low down a person, I would hope somebody would intervene, maybe convince me that if my life was that shallow, that worthless, maybe I should just get it over with and shoot myself in the head.
Once in the temple, once in the forehead, and once through the roof of the mouth.

Ready, Aim-Fire!
Republican Representative Darrell Issa of California wants to know why the ATF went out of its way to supply Mexican gun cartels with firearms purchased by smugglers in the US, but he is being hamstrung in his efforts. One of the obstacles sits on his own committee (House Oversight And Government Reform), a Democrat named Elijah Cummings, who insists that revealing any information might compromise several on-going investigations. The Obama Administration, meanwhile, has flat out refused to cooperate, leading Issa to threaten contempt proceedings.
Obviously, Obama feels he has something to hide here. I think he might be looking for an excuse to clamp down on gun sales across the country, using the situation in Mexico as an excuse. Unfortunately for him, agents of his own ATF blew the whistle on their bureaucratic masters con game, so its now pretty much out in the open. They sat back and watched as the guns, purchased at US gun stores, made their way to Mexican drug cartels. When the game was discovered, their lame excuse was they were trying to monitor to see who got the guns, but unfortunately, the trail unexpectedly went cold, and the guns just disappeared. Yeah, right. Too bad they suddenly reappeared at the scene of several murders, some of which were of American citizens, but what the hell.
I already posted about this matter, and mused that it might well be grounds for impeachment proceedings. But I will be satisfied with contempt, for the time being.
Maybe Obama has ironically provided us with the way to cut this federal bureaucracy down to size. If we can't reduce the size and scope of the federal government through legislative means, maybe we can do it through the justice system-one contempt citation at a time.

Democratic Hypocrisy-The Twilight Zone Was Never This Surreal
Two interesting stories have recently come to light. The first concerns former Army Private Lynndie England, a former Abu Graib prison guard who was prosecuted and imprisoned for prisoner abuse related to the Abu Ghraib prison scandal during the Iraq War. After she served her sentence, she was released from prison in 2008 and given a Dishonorable Discharge. She has lately gone on the lecture circuit. Yet, staffers at the US Library of Congress cancelled a recent planned appearance there by England due to concerns arising from death threats aimed at the event.
Imagine my surprise then when I first read that the Texas Democratic Party might be running Rick Sanchez for the US Senate. Maybe there's some mistake, I thought. Maybe its actually former CNN anchor and leftist loon Rick Sanchez whom they are running. But no, evidently they really are going to support the candidacy of former Iraq commander Ricardo Sanchez, whom Democrats once upon a time raked over the coals for his conduct during the Abu Ghraib controversy. Red State ponders the irony-
A 2004 panel that investigated prisoner abuse found Sanchez, once the nation’s highest-ranking Hispanic officer, was derelict in overseeing Iraqi detention. According to a classified report by three Army generals, Sanchez approved the use of harsh military interrogation techniques that were once limited to prisoners held at facilities in Cuba and Afghanistan.
The irony that Democrats who once raked the lieutenant general over the coals now view Sanchez as their savior will no doubt be a hallmark of the campaign.
Senator Patty Murray, who steers the Democrats’ Senate campaign arm and vaguely teased reporters earlier this week of a top Texas recruit, said in 2004 that all those responsible for Abu Ghraib — no matter where they fell in the chain of command — must be held to account for their actions.
“These actions are a disservice to the thousands of American soldiers in the region who serve us honorably each and every day, and, sadly, are likely to make their efforts to calm a troubled region even harder,” Murray said of the controversy.
Red State goes on to suggest that it would not be easy for Sanchez to gain real traction, but I'm not so sure. They forget the heavy Hispanic turnout which is likely to go ten percent or more higher for someone of the status of Sanchez than they normally do even for a more traditional candidate from the Democratic Party, which typically out-polls Republicans among Latinos by a two-to-one margin as it is.
And that's not counting the very real possibility of illicit voting by illegal immigrants, something that has been a grave concern over the last decade.
Democrats are also probably intent on trying to position themselves yet again as, laughably, patriotic Americans by running Sanchez, a man they once excoriated and wanted to prosecute. After all, they used to say that the whole mess was his responsibility as commanding officer, and as such he, and everyone else up the chain of command should suffer the same fate as the lower soldiers involved in the scandal, who like England were prosecuted, imprisoned, and suffered the ignominy of a Dishonorable Discharge.
Well, since Ricardo Sanchez has now gained their approval and earned their respect to such an extent, what about those lower rung soldiers? What about Lynndie England? Can we soon look forward to the day when Lynndie will be forgiven her sins, baptized into the leftist progressive movement, and atone through a life of public service? Why the hell not? After all, Democrats always said she was no worse than Sanchez. You could make the argument in fact that he, as commanding officer, was worse, whether he was personally complicit, or incompetent and derelict in his ignorance of the matter.
So since he is going to be running as the Democratic candidate for the US Senate from the great state of Texas, why not Lynndie England as a Democratic Party candidate for office from her home state of West Virginia? If not Senator, then maybe the House of Representatives, or maybe even Governor. I think I've got her campaign poster all picked out for her.
LYNNDIE ENGLAND FOR US SENATE
WE GOT THE BEAT!
Imagine my surprise then when I first read that the Texas Democratic Party might be running Rick Sanchez for the US Senate. Maybe there's some mistake, I thought. Maybe its actually former CNN anchor and leftist loon Rick Sanchez whom they are running. But no, evidently they really are going to support the candidacy of former Iraq commander Ricardo Sanchez, whom Democrats once upon a time raked over the coals for his conduct during the Abu Ghraib controversy. Red State ponders the irony-
A 2004 panel that investigated prisoner abuse found Sanchez, once the nation’s highest-ranking Hispanic officer, was derelict in overseeing Iraqi detention. According to a classified report by three Army generals, Sanchez approved the use of harsh military interrogation techniques that were once limited to prisoners held at facilities in Cuba and Afghanistan.

The Latest Environmental Fad
Some environmentalists figure, well, since bugs are a delicacy in some parts of the world, as well as being great sources of vitamins and protein-why not eat them here in the US and the West? It would be much better for the earth, they assure us. So, instead of cattle, pigs, sheep, and chicken, why not grasshoppers, and-spiders, like the two tasty tarantulas pictured below.
Just think, with a little imagination, you can turn your head, hell your entire body into your own personal, portable family farm, and not have to be tied to one particular plot of land.

Jesse Jackson-"That's Not Gay, That's Surviving"
If you're gay, working for Jesse Jackson might not be your best career move. According to one former Jackson staffer, he was abused and disrespected by Jackson and by many of his associates, though Jesse himself established a somewhat dependent relationship with the man. For one thing, he acted as Jackson's procurer of women. But it didn't stop with women.
He also claims that Jesse asked him to apply a cream to an area between his legs where he had a rash and that one night he was summoned to Jesse's hotel room at 1am to take "notes" but he could see that Mr. Jackson was aroused. Sigh....
He also shared this gem of a story that claims Jesse was partaking in sexual relations with men himself:
"Rev. Jackson stated that he played football and there was a gay high school teacher who took Rev. Jackson under his wings and told him that he needed education to go along with football. Rev. Jackson said, '[F]rom that gay teacher, I got a good grade, I got to use his car, I got ten dollars and I got my dick sucked.' Rev. Jackson said, '[T]hat's not gay, that is surviving.'"
Anything you say, Jesse Jackson, you old fucking pole smoker you. No wonder you threatened to cut Barak Obama's dick off. You just wanted it. You really, really wanted it.
