Taxes and the REAL cost of Freedom (with guest blogger Jim)



Tax Day is rapidly approaching; time to give Uncle Sugar his pound of flesh, and be glad it's only a pound (for now).

Your money will go to various things the government deems necessary, like $100 a pound Wagyu beef, so the Lincoln of Our Times™ can entertain in style. (That's for the ribeyes; tenderloin filets are $150 and strip steaks are $126).

Or like the money wasted by Nasty Nancy Pelosi "repeatedly and aggressively", who pestered the military for aircraft to fly her friends and family, hither dither and yon, to the extent that it is felt she is treating the military as her own personal airline. See Fox News Judicial Watch article/report dated 3/10/09, or go read the wisdom of Steve:
http://mojosteve.blogspot.com/2009/03/look-at-meeeeee-im-nancy-peeeeeee.html .

Or the money Barney Frank sent to his bank to keep it afloat after it faced collapse due to shitty lending practices. Or my head-scratching favorite: money to study catfish genetics, which was dreamed up by a Republican. That’s $819,000.00 to study catfish genetics in Alabama, to be exact.

I know my tax dollars go to fund worthy causes too; the national parks, the interstate system, federal prisons, the FBI, and last, but most important, the military.

I know the military/industrial complex just pisses the left off, but there is much good that comes from it too. Advanced computer technology, a trained, reliable work force, better medicine and medical procedures, and most importantly JOBS.

But there is something else the military/industrial complex turns out; casualties.

Statistically, we are returning more soldiers than ever home, with very serious injuries, to include multiple amputees and traumatic brain injuries. Here is the catch; 40 years ago most of these troops would have died on the battlefield. Our sometimes tax-driven military/industrial complex did research and testing that is paying dividends now to our best and bravest.

But is there something we can do to help besides paying our taxes? Glad you asked. There are many charitable organizations you can donate to, to help our most needy service members and their families.

My wife and I donate to the Wounded Warrior Project and the Freedom Alliance, every year, after we get our tax return. Other worthy charities include, but are not limited to, Sew Much Comfort, Fisher House Foundation and Operation Gratitude. I understand money is tight for some, if not all of us, but ask yourself: can I do with a little less so that our troops and their families don't have to do without? Some of these organizations are looking for your volunteer talent if you can't spare any money.

We all bitch about taxes, and with good cause. Who wants to give $900 million to Hamas, or spend $400 million to fight STDs? I mean, what's a box of rubbers, $12? Why 400 mill?

This year, take control use some of that tax return to help your neighbors, your brothers and sisters, our friends, our heroes.

For a list of charities helping our service members and their families go to Reconnect America at http://www.military.com/giveback/ .


Additional notes, from MojoSteve:
Wagyu Beef refers to several breeds of cattle genetically predisposed to intense marbling and to yummy goodness...I wouldn’t know; I can’t afford it. It’s a splurge at my house to get a ten-dollar two-pack of ribeyes. The meat from wagyu cattle is known worldwide for its marbling characteristics, increased eating quality through a naturally enhanced flavor, tenderness and juiciness, and thus a high market value. Several areas in Japan are famous for the quality of their Wagyu cattle, and ship beef bearing their areas' names. Some examples are Kobe, Mishima and Ohmi beef. A quick look at www.lobels.com shows a steal, with 10-ounce ribeyes going for only $58.98 apiece. Or if you’re hungry, a 16-ouncer is just $91.98 per steak. A few weeks ago, you could score a 15-pound whole Wagyu ribeye from Costco for only $2300 clams. Nationwide unemployment is almost 9%, but the Obamunists are entertaining with hundred-dollar steaks. Something tells me that our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan aren’t getting Wagyu in their MRE’s.

Her Royal Obamaness the First Lady of Socialism wants you all to give up your piece of the pie and eat cake (or eat shit, I guess) in order to socialize healthcare, but she got busted in October at the Waldorf Astoria noshing on lobster appetizers at 25 bucks a whack, whole lobsters at 50 a pop, a relatively cheap champagne at 44 dollars (a glass? Probably, since Bollinger is a big-name vintner in France dating back to 1585. It goes for a couple hundred a bottle online, and you know the Waldorf marks that shit up. It’s the preferred champagne of James Bond, incidentally) and a big ol’ serving of Osetra caviar, from the rare Persian sturgeon (ie: Iranian caviar) for $150.00. She spent more on an afternoon snack than most of her subjects can spend a month on groceries.

Please, blow up the above picture to see it in all its glory...


Support the Wounded Warriors Project. Support the Paralyzed Veterans of America. Support the USO. Here at Global Domination Through Applied Inactivity, we support our troops, because we used to be the troops. We support our veterans, because we are veterans. Please, if you can, do a little something for those who give all they have for all we have.

The Big Mexican Gun Lie!


Hats off to Guest Blogger Jim, who must be lovin' this!



Yeah, I saw this one coming.

The media has been touting this so-called shocking "fact" all over TV, radio, in print, and all over the Web, and from talking heads in Washington looking to get a sound byte second of publicity. They say that 90 percent of the weapons used to commit crimes in Mexico come from the United States.

Bob Schieffer of CBS News referred to it in an interview with Obama. Secretary of State Shrillary Clinton said it to reporters on a flight to Mexico City. California’s second biggest idiot, after Nancy Pelosi, Senator Dianne Feinstein, said at a Senate hearing: "It is unacceptable to have 90 percent of the guns that are picked up in Mexico and used to shoot judges, police officers and mayors come from the United States."

Even William Hoover, the Assistant Director for Field Operations at the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, testified to the House that "there is more than enough evidence to indicate that over 90 percent of the firearms that have either been recovered in, or interdicted in transport to Mexico, originated from various sources within the United States."

However, boys and girls, there’s a pretty big problem with this little 90 percent "statistic". It's a complete fallacy.In fact, it's not even close.

By all accounts, it's probably around 17 percent. Doing the quick math that’s a 73% differential.

A clarification from the ATF is that "over 90 percent of the traced firearms originate from the U.S." Well, that kinda makes sense, since we do a pretty good job of keeping records on serial numbers and what not. But a large percentage of the guns recovered in Mexico don’t get sent back here for trace exams, because it is obvious from their markings that they don’t originate from the U.S. of A. Hell, a lot of them have the serial numbers filed off, and face it—we’re not the only country where guns get made.

In 2007-2008, according to ATF Special Agent William Newell, Mexico submitted 11,000 guns to the ATF for tracing. Close to 6,000 were successfully traced -- and of those, 90 percent -- 5,114 to be exact, according to testimony in Congress by William Hoover -- were found to have come from the U.S., but in those same two years, according to the Mexican government, 29,000 guns were recovered at crime scenes.

In other words, 68 percent of the guns that were recovered were never submitted for tracing. And when you weed out the roughly 6,000 guns that could not be traced from the remaining 32 percent, it means 83 percent of the guns found at crime scenes in Mexico could not be traced to the U.S.

So, if not from the U.S., where all of us bloodthirsty baby-killers and war-mongerers horde weapons in the hopes of slaying our neighbors, where do they come from? There are a variety of sources:
-- The Black Market. Mexico is a Sam’s Club for weapons, with Korean grenades, Chinese AK’s, and shoulder-fired rocket launchers from western European, Middle Eastern, and former Soviet bloc manufacturers up for sale.

-- Russian organized crime organizations. Interpol says Russian Mafia groups are actively trafficking drugs and arms in Mexico. Wait…there’s drugs in Mexico?

-- South of the Border…their border. U.S. intelligence agencies say traffickers move immigrants, stolen cars, guns, and drugs (including most of America’s cocaine) along the porous Mexican-Guatemalan border. On March 27, the Guatemalan newspaper La Hora, reported that police seized 500 grenades and a load of AK-47s on the border. Police say the cache was transported by a Mexican drug cartel operating out of the border town of Ixcan. During the late 1990s, Colombia’s home-grown terrorist group FARC established an arms smuggling and drug trafficking partnership with the Tijuana cartel, according to the Federal Research Division report from the Library of Congress.

-- The Mexican Army and Police. More than 150,000 soldiers deserted in the last six years, according to Mexican Congressman Robert Badillo. Many took their weapons with them, including the standard issue M-16 assault rifle. And as corrupt as Mexican government officials tend to be, many weapons are just outright sold to criminals or traded for drugs and other goods.

Ed Head, an Arizona firearms instructor and 24-year veteran of the U.S. Border Patrol, recently displayed an array of weapons considered "assault rifles" that are similar to those recovered in Mexico, but are unavailable for sale in the U.S.

"These kinds of guns -- the auto versions of these guns -- they are not coming from El Paso," he said. "They are coming from other sources. They are brought in from Guatemala. They are brought in from places like China. They are being diverted from the military. But you don’t get these guns from the U.S."

Some guns, he said, "are legitimately shipped to the government of Mexico, by Colt, for example, in the United States. They are approved by the U.S. government for use by the Mexican military service. The guns end up in Mexico that way -- the fully auto versions -- they are not smuggled in across the river."

The exaggeration of American "responsibility" for the crime and violence in Mexico extends even beyond the "90-percent" bullshittery. The Gun Control Lobby is using these falsehoods to more restrictive gun-control laws in the U.S. We all know how the Obamunists hate our guns.

The Mexican ambassador to the America, Auturo Sarukhan, remarkably claimed that Mexico seizes 2,000 guns a day from the United States. That would be 730,000 a year, and that's a far cry from the official statistic from the Mexican attorney general’s office, which says Mexico seized 29,000 weapons in all of 2007 and 2008.

And then you get this Jiverly Wong dickhead in Binghamton, New York. He walks into an immigration office yesterday and kills 12 people. Not illegal immigrants, mind you, but law-abiding legal immigrants preparing to take their citizenship tests. New York’s Governor Patterson is gonna use this as a springboard to further outlaw guns in New York, which in turn will fuel the nationwide anti-gun douchebags.


Hell, I couldn’t even drive through NY on my way to Maine with my .45 disassembled in a locked case in the trunk of my car without the Empire State Gestapo giving me a mandatory sentence. But that’s a blog for another day…

Finding time to be President


With Obama off rubbing elbows with all the big cheese leaders of the planet over at the G20 Summit, giving iPods to the Queen and what not, at least he's finally doing something somewhat Presidential.

I mean, between hanging out with Leno and making fun of the Special Olympics, improving his bowling game, shopping for puppies, taking away your guns and freedoms and liberties, spending your grandchildren's money, filling out his March Madness brackets on ESPN, redistributing your wealth,surrounding himself with a Cabinet full of tax cheats and incompetent asshats, and firing CEO's of publicly-traded companies in order to replace them with hand-picked lackeys, he actually finds time to do Presidential shit?

Wow.

Strange New Taxes (from Fox News)

I may incur the wrath of Rupert Murdoch by reproducing a story from FoxNews.com, but so what? I'm including the by-line so we'll all know that this article came from Joseph Abrams.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Behold, America: the taxman cometh.

Even as taxpayers are struggling to make ends meet in a crumbling, tumbling economy, your friendly neighborhood (and state and federal) government is having a hard time making do with the meager trillions you're throwing its way, so it's relying on an old maxim:

If it exists, it can be taxed.

New York's resident grinch, Gov. David Paterson, tried suggesting a kind of omnibus fun-busting budget that would have taxed New Yorkers for skiing, golfing, camping, being fat, being skinny, going to the movies, going to plays, wearing clothing, going to strip clubs and having more than six fingers or toes. The governor, who is up for re-election next year, came to his senses about three weeks ago and renounced the budget, perhaps when an adviser noted that political contributions aren't tax-deductible.

Things haven't been all downhill for the taxman, though: some surprising new tariffs, like supersizing the tax on AIG bonuses, have had a measure of popular support, but most are being opposed hand and foot over wallet.

Cigarette taxes are jumping so much on April 1 that it will soon be cheaper to run a tobacco farm than to buy a pack of cigarettes. So as you stockpile your smokes for the coming decade, here's a look at some of the more egregious new taxes you'll be seeing soon.

Smoke 'em if you got 'em!

IT'S ELECTRIC
Washington Mayor Adrian Fenty has proposed a slew of new taxes (for taxes are no longer solitary creatures like wolves, but herd together in dangerous slews) to meet his city's massive deficit. His first target: budget-busting street lights, which Washingtonians will now fund with an extra $51 monthly tax. Bottom line: if you expect to be kept safe from monsters lurking in the District night, it's really going to cost you.


DO THE MASH
Kentucky is called the state of the "unbridled spirit," but when a new 6 percent tax hike on booze goes into effect April 1, that slogan might have to change. Lawmakers are going to be taxing their very own Kentucky bourbon, which is, along with Col. Sanders and the Bowie knife, among the greatest contributions of the Bluegrass State. Talk about biting the hand that feeds you.

OLD PROFESSION, NEW FEE
Nevada's hidebound lawmakers are finally going after prostitution in their state. Well, not really ... but one Las Vegas Democrat has proposed a $5 surcharge on all, ummm, transactions, which he says will boost the state's economy by $2 million. While you finish doing the math on how many rendezvous there are annually in Nevada (answer: a lot), it's worth noting that most bordellos charge a minimum of about $100to $200 for their services, and don't object much to the suggested tax. Five bucks is a paltry thing next to the prices some people are willing to pay in the Silver State.


GET IN AND STAY OUT
Nevada has also raised its so-called bed tax, which isn't nearly as fun as it sounds. Its 3 percent hike was levied in March on travelers spending the night in Nevada hotels, most of whom end up in Las Vegas. Nevada isn't alone: nearly half of states have a hotel tax meant to punish suckers foolish enough to leave their own homes, but as more sign on there's danger of an interstate tax war. Once everyone has imposed a stiff nightly rate, who will be safe from harm?

STRIPPED BARE
Texas led the way in 2007 by levying a $5 tax on patrons of gentlemen's clubs, exotic dance parlors and all other places where women disrobe for money. Now Florida and New York are among states considering their own "pole taxes," which have already netted the Lone Stars $11.2 million in revenues. The money was supposed to be used to fund sexual assault services (and no, the irony is not lost on anyone). Only hitch: a Texas judge ruled the tax an unconstitutional infringement of free speech. Yes, stripping is free speech. Let freedom ring.

CASH CROP
Billions of dollars in the hole, California's legislature is considering a blunt proposal from a San Francisco assemblyman: taxing legalized marijuana sales at $50 an ounce, a move its sponsor thinks could net the state about $1 billion a year. Oregon is considering a similar measure, taxing medical marijuana at nearly $100 an ounce. The taxes could really help excite the states' economies, even if everything else gets sluggish for a while.


RUNNING ON EMPTY
If you live in America and your name starts with a letter, you're probably going to be seeing higher gas taxes soon. States and municipalities from Massachusetts to Michigan are planning gas hikes to help rev up their stalling fiscal engines. So any of you planning to travel across state lines to stock up on cigarettes before April 1had better get on the road fast, before new highway taxes, raised tolls, speeding cameras and apocalyptic moths bar your way for good.

And you thought apocalyptic moths were bullshit?

PORNOGRAPHY!
A Washington state representative was beaten back in February when he suggested taxing pornographic materials to save programs that serve the poor and disabled. A noble gesture indeed, which would have taxed adult magazines, adult photographs, adult videos, adult phone services and a few things even adults wouldn't want to talk about. The flesh lobby (and the rep's fellow Democrats in the state house) stopped the bill in its tracks, a rare win for anti-tax forces this season. The ACLU opposed the bill, too, arguing that taxing pornography is a tax on free speech. So what happens if you put it on mute?

Get Your Checkbooks Ready (with guest blogger Rick)



My ranks are filled with old Army buddies who for some odd reason still like me enough to stay in touch. Today we get some wisdom from Rick, who wrote this a few weeks ago before the White House pulled another fast one with the Omnibus Spending Bill and then started to talk about another Succubus Package Part Two.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

So the stimulus package has been passed. And why not? The one they passed in the Fall has worked so well.

According to the Tax Foundation 44% of Americans that filed tax returns paid no taxes last year.

According to a financial expert I heard on the radio in the fall, the $700 billion stimulus would cost taxpayers - not filers, but people that actually paid taxes - $300,000 each if divided equally among us. Using my percentage calculator, this means each of us that pay taxes is .000042857% of the total.

Since the new stimulus is $787 billion, each taxpayer's share of this one will be $337,285.00.

Since Obama has said that the recently approved 'stimulus' package is "is merely a down payment for future spending..." we are sure to be expected to foot the bill for future money they throw at the problem in the absence of actual ideas to fix it.

And don't forget that this is the same Congress we have had for several years and they have already thrown money at the economy problem several times. Remember the rebate checks everyone got in June? And thanks to us taxpayers and our deep pockets, every one of the 44% of filers that don't pay any taxes was able to get a check. Last February's stimulus was estimated at $170 billion. Your bill for that stimulus is $72,857.00.

So your new tax bill will look something like this:
Fall = $300,000 +
this latest stimulus= $337,285 +
February 2008 stimulus = $72,857 +
General motors/Chrysler bailouts - $25 billion = $10,714
Total: $720,856 per taxpayer

And this does not include individual rescue packages (bailouts) except
the auto bailout, so this current total from the past year's "economic
stimulus" will be higher with those included. Add in the future spending
Obama mentioned and I predict your portion is 1 million dollars, and
that's not counting your normal tax bill and is before the interest starts accruing.

Better get your checkbook.

And now the Liberals hate your black cars too


I swear, if Hell has a front gate, it’s located under a manhole at the corner of Haight and Ashbury in San Fransisco, the Crapital of Liberal Socialist America. After all, the City by the Bay spawned Diane Feinstein and Nasty Pelosi. Need I say more? The evil oozes downhill and has contaminated Sacramento so badly that California is just a running joke now. The rhino may be endangered but there’s a RINO in Kellyfawnya named Arnold who’s alive & well.

I say this, because as if there wasn’t enough governmental control bullshit and babble issuing forth from the Obamunist Manifesto in Washington, the asstards in California now want to control what color your car can be, based on Global Warming bullshit.

The problem stems from a new “cool paints” initiative from the California Air Resources Board. CARB wants to mandate the phase-in of heat-reflecting paints on vehicle exteriors beginning with the ’12 model year, with all colors meeting a 20% reflectivity requirement by the ’16 model year.

Because about 17 other states tend to follow California’s regulatory lead for no better reason than it sounds cool & hip, as many as 40% of the vehicles sold in the U.S. could be impacted by the proposed directive, suppliers say.

The measure is allegedly aimed at reducing carbon-dioxide emissions and improving fuel economy by keeping vehicles cooler on sunny days and decreasing the amount of time drivers use their air conditioners. I just simply can’t believe that someone feels they should regulate my personal comfort level in my car based on their own idiocy.

From the CARB website: “In 2006, California adopted the California Global Warming Solutions Act, also known as AB 32. This law created a comprehensive, long term plan for California to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels by 2020. Cool Paints was identified as an Early Action strategy, to be in place no later than January 1, 2010. This strategy is based on measures to reduce the solar heat gain in a vehicle parked in the sun. A cooler interior would make drivers less likely to activate the air conditioner, which increases carbon dioxide emissions.”

The rationale goes like this: Vehicle a/c units sap engine power and hurt fuel economy. If vehicle paint and glass reflect more heat, car interiors will be cooler. That means drivers will use their a/c less, the compressors won’t have to work as hard and auto makers will be able to use smaller a/c units in the future. Eventually, these environmentalist assholes will outlaw air conditioning altogether.

There should be a massive public outcry, for at least these two reasons:
1. Black is a highly-popular car color, second only to white, according to the 2008 DuPont Automotive Color Popularity Report, and

2. Regulating the color of cars, or anything else for that matter, is the mark of an overly-intrusive government and a lessening of our freedoms.
In 2006 an experiment was conducted by Craig Eppling, the regional head of public relations for General Motors in Dallas.

He parked a red Buick Lucerne, a white Chevrolet Impala and a black Saab SUV on a concrete parking lot in Carrollton, Texas one afternoon in mid-July. All were late-model, low-mileage vehicles. There were thermometers in each car, and readings were taken every five minutes between 2 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. The temperature outside ranged from a 93 to 102.

The red Lucerne was left with its windows up. The white Impala started the test with its windows down a quarter of the way, and they were lowered all the way at 3:40 p.m. The black Saab had darkly tinted windows that were left up.

At 4:20 p.m., when the temperature hit 102 degrees outside, the black Saab with gangsta glass rolled up tight registered an interior temperature of 125.8. The white Impala with the windows down had an interior temperature of 127.2 degrees, and the red Lucerne with untinted windows up all the way was a brain-melting 139.5 degrees.
None of this surprised Jan Null, an adjunct professor of meteorology at San Francisco State University, who has done research on heat and sealed vehicles.

"The exterior of a black car gets hotter than a white car, but it does not get transferred to the interior any more than in a white car," he said. "Try this experiment: Take your hand and put it on the headliner. It's not very hot. The energy that heats up the inside of a car comes through the windows."

Holy shit. You mean there’s a sane, rational voice of reason in the Capital of Liberalism?

Besides, anyone who's ever entered a hot car knows that it can be cooled down immediately by driving a few dozen feet with the windows open, effectively neutralizing any color-caused heat issues before engaging the a/c. But whatever, black is evil according to he Dems, unless it’s to promote the fact that their President is black-ish.


Not even your super cool black Prius Hybrid is safe from Liberal Tyranny. Who's the dumbass now?

Illegal Immigrants are American Patriots? Why Nancy Pelosi is an Idiot.



You know what scares the crap outta me? The fact that the person third in line to be President of the United States is a complete & utter idiot, even more so than the Veep, I fear.

In yet another bold move that goes to show that this Liberal Flake has lost her freakin’ mind, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi recently told a group of both legal and illegal immigrants and their families that enforcement of existing immigration laws as currently practiced is "un-American."

Pelosi, condemning raids by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, referred to the immigrants she was addressing as "very, very patriotic."

"Who in this country would not want to change a policy of kicking in doors in the middle of the night and sending a parent away from their families?" Pelosi told a mostly Hispanic gathering at St. Anthony's Church in San Francisco. "It must be stopped....What value system is that? I think it's un-American. I think it's un-American."

Have I been taken away by an alien craft and transported to Bizarro World? What kind of nonsensical horseshit is this? She portrays our ICE agents as if they were jackbooted thugs dragging people off to concentration camps, delousing showers full of Zyklon B, and really big ovens. And then she has the audacity, or is it just plain naïve stupidity, to say that people who snuck into this country and are living illegally under the radar and manipulating the system for personal gain are the actual American patriots?


Pelosi said she was invited to the church by Representative Luis Gutierrez (D-IL) as part of his 17-city, cross-country tour called United Families, which he says is intended to put a human face on the immigration debate.

"We think that families are the cornerstone of our society and our nation, and an immigration system should preserve those families, not destroy them," Gutierrez told FOX News Capitol Hill Producer Chad Pergram.The congressman is collecting petitions that ask President Obama to "stop the immigration raids and deportations that are tearing our marriages, families and children apart." He is expected to present those petitions when Hispanic members of Congress meet with the President.

Um, we can keep the families together, Congressman. Simply deport them home all at the same time. They snuck over together & didn’t get lost, so a nice orderly return home shouldn’t break them up, pal. Adios!!!!

On Saturday night, Pelosi joined Gutierrez before a cheering crowd at St. Anthony's chanting, "Si se puede," or "Yes we can."

I believe I may vomit. Did we wave a Ché Guevara poster too? Did you wear a cute little Fidel Castro olive drab field cap and smoke a cigar, too?

Referring to work site enforcement actions by ICE agents, by where the dreaded SS Stormtroopers of “La Migra” swoop in from black helicopters to roust the proletariat as they toil to provide for the good of the state and the Party (or, in truth, the ICE teams check known & suspected work sites to check for illegals getting paid under the table) Pelosi said, "We have to have a change in policy and practice and again ... I can't say enough, the raids must end. The raids must end…You are special people. You're here on a Saturday night to take responsibility for our country's future. That makes you very, very patriotic."

Yes, it’s oh so very patriotic to sneak in, work under the table, not pay taxes, abuse our healthcare system, find ways to mooch welfare & food stamps, send your kids to our overburdened schools, and then get in-state tuition to colleges, all as you send the bulk of your money back to Mexico or wherever you came from. Hell yeah! Where do I sign up?

Oh, wait, I’m an AMERICAN…I can’t sign up. I have to pay state & federal taxes and see a huge slice of my pay taken away to pay for my health insurance, I have to budget out for groceries since I pay for them with my money and not governmental assistance, and I get to pay for you too. I pay higher car insurance rates to compensate for underinsured and uninsured illegals driving on foreign licenses (or no licenses at all), a rampant problem here in South Carolina.

Maybe I should go throw my medals earned during my four years in the Army over the White House fence, since the old definitions of being a patriot seem to be gone. Perhaps then the Dems will see me as a patriot. After all, it worked for John Kerry…

Remember when Clinton was gonna give Elian Gonzalez instant US citizenship? Wasn't current AG Eric Holder in on that fiasco too?
