You Didn’t Build That?

Posted on July 27, 2012 by popgun

“You didn’t build that!”, Obama said, in a fit of honesty. Every once in a while his mouth gets ahead of his brain and he tells us what he really believes. The very best thing you can say about his … Continue reading →

Chic-fil-A

Posted on July 25, 2012 by popgun

Officials in at least three cities, including Rahm Emanuel in Chicago, are trying to block Chic-fil-A from opening restaurants in their towns, because Chic-fil-A does not support gay marriage. This constitutes religious persecution by the government. Since when, in the … Continue reading →

Tea Party – Violent?

Posted on July 24, 2012 by popgun

It seems that the leftist liberal main-stream media has succeeded in painting the Tea Party as being violent. I find this interesting since I cannot think of a single instance of any Tea Party activity in which the members of … Continue reading →

What Are They Hiding??

Posted on June 27, 2012 by popgun

Regarding Fast & Furious, and President Obama protecting Attorney General Eric Holder by invoking executive privilege – you just have to ask yourself: What are they hiding?? What could possibly be so heinous that this was the least painful route … Continue reading →

Liberals Are Violent People

Posted on June 14, 2012 by popgun

Joy Behar, a person who deserves zero respect, wants to see Romney’s house burn down. Looks like it is just fine for liberals to use violent imagery, but God forbid a conservative put target symbols on a map! Those bloody … Continue reading →

Clinging

Posted on June 9, 2012 by popgun

In his 2008 campaign, Obama said that country folks were “clinging to our Bibles and guns” – like that’s a bad thing. Now NBC news reminds us of that statement, dissing “folks in rural areas” – like me – because … Continue reading →

Types of Issues

Posted on May 18, 2012 by popgun

It occurs to me that there are two fundamental types of issues in play in the games of politics. The most common is an issue that is largely a matter of passion. For instance, I personally am pro-life, and I … Continue reading →

Immoral Waste in Proportion

Posted on April 20, 2012 by popgun

GSA spent $823,000 on that party in Vegas, and that is insanely wasteful of taxpayer dollars. That’s terrible.  Somebody ought to go to jail for this. But I’d just like to mention that the Queen, Michelle Obama, spent around $10,000,000 of taxpayer … Continue reading →

Political Ramblings

Posted on April 15, 2012 by popgun

I’m happy to find that conservatives outnumber liberals about two to one. The same source shows that there are about as many moderates as conservatives. Kind of makes you wonder how Obama got elected, doesn’t it? Anyhow, I am probably … Continue reading →

Mowing, Again

Posted on April 1, 2012 by popgun

Yesterday, I mowed the yard. We have two acres, all of which I mow except where obstructions exist. It cost $9.55 in gasoline to mow my yard. Ridiculous. This does not make me happy. Along about the time Obama was … Continue reading →

King Obama

Posted on January 7, 2012 by popgun

What do you call a President who no longer governs with respect for the law or the Constitution which mandates his powers? Obama has abandoned or bypassed the entire concept of “checks and balances” inherent in the “separation of powers”; … Continue reading →

Smart, or Stupid? Capable, or Incompetent?

Posted on November 24, 2011 by popgun

Obama is either incredibly stupid, inept, incompetent, and a failure as a leader of this country; or, Obama is incredibly intelligent and cunning, competent, capable, and is doing exactly what he intended to do. One way or the other, he’s … Continue reading →

The Super Comittee

Posted on November 20, 2011 by popgun

The Super Committee, like any other committee, is a form of life with more than three stomachs and no brain. I don’t know whether the so-called Super Committee will succeed in coming up with a compromise to reduce Federal expenditures … Continue reading →

Frustrated and Angry

Posted on October 24, 2011 by popgun

Frustration and anger; that is what I feel towards our entire political system. Our politicians, en masse, lie to us daily. Every blooming one of them. IMHO. They lie to us by redefining the language. Most recently, and significantly, a … Continue reading →

Teamsters President Jimmy Hoffa shot his mouth off, yesterday, and apparently Joe Biden and President Obama were right on board with him. My earlier post on this is here. In it, I called attention to Hoffa, and the type of … Continue reading →
