Eleven years after the ratification of a treaty of peace between the United States of America and the Confederate States of America; in an unusual spirit of cooperation between the two American nations, a joint task force comprised of elements of the 9th Confederate States Cavalry and the United States 7th Cavalry has invaded the northern plains, the home of the ferocious Sioux and Northern Cheyenne Indians; in a combined military campaign to end the western Indian Wars once and for all. The co-commanders of the united military effort are Major General Joseph Wheeler, C.S.A. and Colonel George Armstrong Custer, U.S.A.

The xmas package that was too big to wrap and costs 20 bucks to finally wrap it was never delivered. When I realized what I had bought my mom, 86, I returned it and got my eighty seven bucks back AND stood her up. Only a six hour drive, I coulda made it. I can’t even tell anyone what I bought her, the gift was so bad. I just couldn’t face the ridicule from my inlaws. Wow, that was a close one. Good thing my daughter is getting a divorce and I can hide behind that. Life is wonderful. ( Twenty bucks to wrap a pop corn machine. Do I hate xmas? It’s only a movie. It’s only a movie. )

The artillery fire coupled with the excellent repeating rifles of the Confederate cavalry troopers wreaked havoc on the advancing Indian horde and scattered the survivors up and down the narrow valley. The commands to cease fire, mount, and form your troop were given; and the 9th Confederate Cavalry began their mopping up operation.

“Married couples with children have an average income of $80,000, compared with $24,000 for single mothers.”
Perhaps rich people find it easier to marry than poorer people?
You may have a point. Maybe it does take the mentality to get alone, to know when and what to say, to know your role and know when to keep you mouth shut to be rich and married.

Is there something wrong with disabling a person coming after you or others with a gun WITHOUT killing them? Do we have that much bloodlust in this country that “bad guys with guns” must DIE in order for us to feel safe?

I’m going to start my countdown to the 2012 Top Ten Republican Punks Of All Time!
Here’s Number 10:
Mitt Romney Gets Punked By The 47%ers:
The defeated GOP candidate famously disparaged Obama as the candidate of the 47 percent. Now, liberals gleefully view Mitt’s final tally as poetic justice
Liberal schadenfreude is about to reach overdose levels. Just when you thought the dead horse of Mitt Romney’s campaign had been beaten more than enough — and most savagely by members of his own party — Dave Wasserman at Cook Political Report projects that the final count of the popular vote, which is still ongoing, will show Romney winning 47 percent of the electorate. In addition to proving that Obama handily won the popular vote, the final tally makes Romney the official candidate of the 47 percent — a delicious irony, liberals say, given that Romney infamously claimed that Obama was the candidate of the 47 percent of Americans who “believe they are victims” and are “dependent on government.”
By all accounts, Romney’s “47 percent” remarks constituted one of the greatest self-inflicted wounds from a candidate who had no shortage of them.

Number 9:
Republicans, the party of responsibility, is NOT responsible for loosing 2x to a Socialist, Kenyan, Marxist:
nobody likes to be at fault. So after losing the White House to a supposedly socialist, secret Muslim for the second time in four years, the Grand Old Party started its latest finger-pointing campaign: assigning others the blame for losing the presidential election. Here are their top six culprits:
Chris Christie Did It
It’s Sandy’s Fault
Rove: Obama Suppressed Voters
O’Reilly: Loss of ‘Traditional America
The Lone Black Panther
Obama Mural
In reality, the Republican Party didn’t lose the election because of Sandy, or Christie, or a mural. It lost because 71 percent of Latinos, 93 percent of black people, 73 percent of Asian Americans, and 55 percent of women voted against it. The party did not embrace policies that appeal to these demographic groups—and lost. And that’s the GOP’s fault.

Number 8:
Republicans Becoming More UnHinged By The Day
Republicans not handling election results well
PPP’s first post election national poll finds that Republicans are taking the results pretty hard…and also declining in numbers.
49% of GOP voters nationally say they think that ACORN stole the election for President Obama. We found that 52% of Republicans thought that ACORN stole the 2008 election for Obama, so this is a modest decline, but perhaps smaller than might have been expected given that ACORN doesn’t exist anymore.
Some GOP voters are so unhappy with the outcome that they no longer care to be a part of the United States. 25% of Republicans say they would like their state to secede from the union compared to 56% who want to stay and 19% who aren’t sure.
One reason that such a high percentage of Republicans are holding what could be seen as extreme views is that their numbers are declining.

at this point, it never seemed possible that one day the capital of pagan Rome will become the head of the church.
During the next 3 centuries, Christians were martyred and persecuted in the Empire their blood a testimony to God. Hence the Catholic Church was founded also on the blood of martyrs.
Whoop de do. That’s no miracle; that’s just retail-level politics.
Romney winning 47% of the popular vote? Now THAT’s a sign, as the song goes, “there must be a God somewhere.”

Susan from Princeton granted that the Republican Party is “lily white and it’s a problem and it is messaging and Mitt Romney screwed up royally.”
But Ms. O’Sullivan again took umbrage. As everyone went silent, she recalled a conference she attended in Australia in which a liberal nun (who “didn’t even have the decency to wear a habit”) criticized America for its “inner-city racism.” Offended, Ms. O’Sullivan recounted what she wished she’d said to this nun:
“Pardon me, madam, but I have been in your country of Australia for ten days and the only Aborigines I’ve seen have been drunk on the street, and at least if we were in my country they would be serving the drinks at this conference!”

For decent people……..Obama has done to the Democrat party what George W did to the Republican.
..
To understand Progressives, we have to understand that they are True Believers in the power of the State to make all of society whole simply by passing and administrating laws that are created “in the public interest.” This religious belief is non-negotiable. E.J. Dionne believes ultimately that the State is God. So does Jim Wallis, and both men believe that Barack Obama is the very epitome of the Holy State and that Obama “is going to save us.”
For all of the talk from the Progressive Left that their God is science and that religion is unscientific, in reality, their beliefs ultimately are religious. Like the former Soviets who had billboards exclaiming, “Lenin is more alive than the living!”, Progressive leftists truly believe that the State can reorder the entire world into a happy, productive, prosperous and peaceful condition, provided that government have enough coercive powers, including the power to kill dissenters. This is their religion and anyone who contradicts it is speaking damnable heresy.

Our heretic numbers are growing.

Hi ho, hi ho, it’s over the cliff we go…..with a tax hike here and tax hike there, here a tax, there a tax, everywhere a tax tax, hi ho hi ho hi ho!!!
Obama never had any intention of avoiding the cliff. The next day he’ll propose all these wonderful tax cuts and fly back to Hawaii looking like a hero to his minions who aren’t paying attention to the man behind the curtain.
That “dissapointing” Christmas season is gonna leave a few people out of work in the next few weeks. Anybody want to guess why it was “dissapointing”?

Deficits?
Which brings us to the economic level. The deficits that Bush ran up in the years in which the country was teetering on the verge of a serious recession had the beneficial effect of righting the economy. In that sense, deficits not only didn’t matter, but were a force for economic good.
