New Favorite Quote:

via StumbleUpon stumbler FLR:
Still, if you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.

 While looking for a photograph of Churchill, I also found this quote. Seems he knew us all too well:
The Americans will always do the right thing... after they’ve exhausted all the alternatives.
 Have a great day!

Dozens Gather For 4/20 Pot Protest, Somewhere

A few dozen protesters across the nation gathered in parks and allegedly at the nation's capitol to protest for the legalization of marijuana, a substance they see as no more dangerous than alcohol. At 4:20 pm, the protesters lit up joints and smoked them in plain view of God and everyone, then promptly forgot why they were there, leaving sadly, not much else to report, dude.

One protester, when approached by a reporter, was overheard asking "Yea, man, what did you guys want?" in a voice vaguely  similar to Tommy Chong.

More on the NORML protest can be found here and  here.

Now, what was I supposed to be doing before I got sidetracked?

Democrats Attempt to Sidestep Constitution AGAIN!

>> April 20, 2010

Here's an idea, Let's PRETEND D.C. is a State! Yea, you know, like we were going to pretend we passed a Health care bill? Only this time let's add two Congress people to the roll call! FROM D.C. which is not a state. or congressional district!

To become a state, you need a constitutional amendment and a two thirds majority vote in favor.

They plan to vote on this Thursday!

When will these treasonous SOB's quit?

Read on - from Julie in my local TEA Party:

House Attempts to Invent DC Congressmen this Thursday!
The D.C. House Voting Rights Act is unconstitutional. Tell your Representative to vote NO on H.R. 157!

April 19, 2010
After casting a career-defining vote in favor of Big Government Obamacare, congressional liberals know that they have little time left as the majority party in Congress, so they are pushing hard for all the little-known leftist bills that have been sitting in dusty desk drawers for decades.  One such piece of legislation is the District of Columbia House Voting Rights Act.  Just last week, President Obama called on Congress to get this bill passed and to his desk before November 2010 rolls around. 
Sponsored by DC Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton, the District of Columbia House Voting Rights Act of 2009 (H.R. 157) would establish full House of Representatives voting rights for the District of Columbia while adding an additional seat to Utah, a traditionally Republican stronghold and the next state in line to pick up a Congressional seat in reapportionment. However, there is one minor problem:  D.C. is NOT a congressional district or a state!
The D.C. House Voting Rights Act aims to accomplish the following:
  • Subvert the District Clause of the U.S. Constitution Article I, Section 8, clause 17 - which makes clear that D.C. is a federal city, not a state, with final governing authority resting with Congress. The U.S. Constitution states that the House shall be composed of "Members chosen...by the People of the several States," not delegates representing non-state territories.
  • Silence critics of D.C. voting rights by buying them off with a "sure Republican" seat because they know the D.C. seat will be a solid Democrat. In the last 12 elections since D.C. was granted the right to cast presidential electoral votes, it has never cast less than 74.8 percent of its popular vote for the Democratic presidential candidate. This move is simply a partisan trade-off by the congressional liberal Majority wanting to add a permanent Democrat vote to their tallies.
  • Bribe Republicans to favor the idea by including a provision to increase the number of House Members from 435 to 437 and give the extra Representative to Utah.
  • Lay the initial groundwork for achieving the ultimate goal of establishing two permanent Democrat Senate seats for the District. If the initial inclination is for DC to be "considered a Congressional district for purposes of representation in the House of Representatives," then the idea for DC to be "considered a state for the purposes of representation in the U.S. Senate," will not be far down the road.
Simply introducing a bill such as this is unconstitutional!  DC cannot be "treated as though it were a congressional district," unless it were formally made a congressional district via a constitutional amendment, which would require a two-thirds majority in both houses of Congress as well as three-fourths of the states to ratify it.
This is nothing new from the Left.  Congressional liberals have been trying to grant full voting rights to the District of Columbia since the 1980s.  The maiden attempt to amend the U.S. Constitution through the "D.C. Representation" Amendment was unsuccessful, after it passed Congress but was rejected by the American people and died on August 22, 1985 after a decisive majority of 34 of the 50 states refused to ratify it.  Now, Members of Congress are attempting to forgo the constitutional process and slip one past the American people in order to accommodate their political agenda!
Remember, the Senate passed its version of the DC Voting bill (S. 160) by a vote of 61 to 37 (Roll Call 73) in February 2009.  However, that bill stalled in the House because it contained a Senate Republican-offered amendment which repealed strict DC gun laws.  Although the language of H.R. 157 has not yet been made public, the bill is expected to contain either the same or similar gun provisions, and although many House liberals favor DC gun control laws, it is likely that the liberal House leadership will approach this legislation in much the same way it did Obamacare:  Pass it now, fix it later
TAKE ACTION!
The House is scheduled to vote on H.R. 157 on Thursday, April 22, 2010!  Please call and email your representatives and tell them to vote NO on this unconstitutional bill!
Be sure to focus your calls on Republicans and Democrats alike, as various Republican "moderates" have been known to support this attempted scheme in the past and some Democrat "moderates" have opposed it.

Christina Hendricks vs Adriana Lima vs Megan Fox

What do you think of this development? In the ultimate Rule 5 goodness, Esquire magazine hands the Robot a reason to include these three beauties in a single post! Not that I really needed one, mind you.

In a shocking, shocking! report, Esquire magazine's latest poll of 10,000 -wait for it- women(!) ranked Christina Hendricks as the best looking female, knocking Megan Fox down to number three with model Adriana Lima coming in second.

Let's just see about that...

Here's Christina Hendricks:


Adriana Lima:

Now Megan Fox:
To be honest, I'm having a tough time picking the winner. This will definitely require more study, to be sure.

Dhimmitude

I thought it was an insult or a put-down like "Don't bring the dhimmitude, dude!". Turns out it is, but in a larger sense.

Via email from TEA Party members. Thanks Brad and Steve!

Had never heard the word until now---Type it
into Google and start reading. Pretty interesting. Note that
Muslims and certain other religions are exempt from the
Obamacare penalties and it is supported by law. We are
surrendering from within! Obama is leading us right down
the path to total control!
 
Dhimmitude
 
Dhimmitude is the Muslim system of controlling
non-muslim populations conquered through jihad. Specifically,

it is the TAXING of non-muslims in exchange for tolerating
their presence AND as a coercive means of converting
conquered remnants to islam.

The ObamaCare bill is the establishment of
Dhimmitude and Sharia muslim diktat in the United States .
Muslims are specifically exempted from the government
mandate to purchase insurance, and also from the penalty tax
for being uninsured. Islam considers insurance to be
"gambling", "risk-taking" and "usury" and is thus banned.
Muslims are specifically granted exemption based on this.
How convenient. So I, a Christian, will have crippling IRS
liens placed against all of my assets, including real estate,
cattle, and even accounts receivables, and will face hard
prison time because I refuse to buy insurance or pay the
penalty tax. Meanwhile, Louis Farrakhan will have no such
penalty and will have 100% of his health needs paid for by
the de facto government insurance. Non-muslims will be
paying a tax to subsidize muslims. Period. This is
Dhimmitude.
 
Dhimmitude serves two purposes: it enriches
the muslim masters AND serves to drive conversions to islam.
In this case, the incentive to convert to islam will be
taken up by those in the inner-cities as well as the godless
Generation X, Y and Z types who have no moral anchor. If you
don't believe in Christ to begin with, it is no problem
whatsoever to sell Him for 30 pieces of silver. "Sure, I'll
be a muslim if it means free health insurance and no taxes.
Where do I sign, bro?"

Now look at what they are teaching and not teaching in the schools...

Wake up folks!

US Military Prevails Despite President Obummer's Apologetic Stance on Terrorism

The top 2 al-Quaida operatives in Iraq have been introduced to their virgins thanks to our brave and selfless soldiers. God bless them. The soldiers, that is.


U.S. forces commander Gen. Raymond Odierno praised the operation.

"The death of these terrorists is potentially the most significant blow to al-Qaida in Iraq since the beginning of the insurgency," he said. "There is still work to do but this is a significant step forward in ridding Iraq of terrorists."

Cap & Tax Lite

In the Will They Ever Learn Department:
Senator Linsey Graham R(ino) from S.C along with his Democrat handlers have decided once again that those dangerous carbon emissions are more important than jobs or your economic security. The new energy proposal promises higher taxes on gasoline, which will be tacked on to the existing taxes on gasoline.

I hear the bill also contains the requirement to buy carbon credits that I suppose one could purchase if you breathe too heavily while exerting all the extra effort needed to earn the money to pay for the carbon credits. *pant*
 
Enough already! When will these morans realize that we don't need or want higher taxes. We need jobs. But that's not the objective is it? Sadly it is not. The Democrats' purpose with this and any new bill of late is more control over your life by telling you what you are allowed to do. Granted, they don't come out and say a person can't drive across country, but they will make it so expensive as to be financially impossible. What happened to liberty?

They continue marching on the the Al Gore drumbeat of a fake Global Warming hoax. Man did not cause the climate to change, if it is changing at all, the cause is far from man-made. Has anyone noticed a large plume of ash currently circling the atmosphere? Was that man-made? Has anyone heard of climate cycles?

The only thing Republicans should be doing right now is digging in their heels and saying no to everything this regime proposes. Bi-partisan should be a word we don't hear for the next three years!

The Senators writing the legislation are dangling the carrot of offshore drilling in an attempt to sucker in some support for the legislation. I say don't reach for it. After the Health Care fiasco, I'm against anything, ANYTHING this congress wants to do.
 
In the words of Nancy Reagan, Just. Say. No.

Get used to it ladies. You're a hit!
Thanks for the linky love, my fellow bloggers.

UPDATE II: A heartfelt apology  to Fishersville Mike. I like totally forgot you linked this post as well. I will make amends with future excessive linkage to your most excellent weblog. How's that for grovelling? Good? No? Yes? Maybe? Hey, look! Yonder goes a rabbit!

Southeast Texas Tax Day TEA Party - Final Update!

>> April 15, 2010

UPDATE V:
All videos are uploaded now. I missed the last speaker so, if anyone has footage of him then please let me know and I'll be glad to link it or embed it here. New videos after the page break.

It's obvious to me that these are normal, God fearing folks. Everyone I spoke to at this event was courteous and well mannered. These are simply people who see their liberties being eroded away and have awakened to the fact that we are the frog in the proverbial pot. I would venture a guess that most of these people, myself included, until a year ago, had never been to a political rally in their lives. I wonder how anyone can be scared by that? I find it heartening.

Thank God for all of you who attended. I stand beside you and salute you, American Patriots!
I almost forgot to add that You can join the Southeast Texas TEA Party by following this link. If you live elsewhere you can find one here. Just look for your state.


Great turnout ! Great patriots !

UPDATE: Posted this yesterday from my phone. As of now, I'm working to get the video chopped to YouTube size and uploaded so, bear with me, please. My partner in crime also has some still shots and I'll be linking those as well when he gets off his a$$ and does whatever those photographer guys do. Cheers!

Meanwhile, check out RS McCain's site for info on the Washington Rallies.

Also, while I was at The Other McCain's place earlier today, I saw that Andrew Sullivan had found a way through the spam filter to spew some guttural sewage about the TEA Party. Needless to say, I couldn't stand for him dissin' my brothers in arms. You can check that out here.

UPDATE II: Why does it take like fo-eh-vah to upload  video to YouToob? Got them cued up and on the way. It's sooo sloow...

UPDATE III: Finally got he first speaker uploaded. I'll keep updating this post as the vids reach the server.
Here is Ken Bowers. Please excuse my shaky hand. I'll go get the tripod in a bit.
 





UPDATE IV: My buddy uploaded his Tax Day TEA Party Pictures to an online album.  Here is another speaker, Mona Lisa Chambers - after the jump.

Obama Power Grab - Again + Wednesday Robo-Love

>> April 14, 2010


Speaking of asshattery… This bill will grant dictatorial powers to the President, no ifs ands or buts…
This legislation, essentially, confers on the federal government police powers that, under our system, are the exclusive preserve of state and local government. The blank check the bill gives the feds to take over any financial institution is really more of an exercise of eminent domain than it is an extension of traditional federal regulatory power.

April 15th Tax Day TEA Party + Rep Paul Ryan

>> April 12, 2010

In my neck of the woods the Party will be held at Ford Park just outside Beaumont  from 6:00pm to 9:00pm. The address is: Ford Park 5115 IH 10 S, Beaumont, TX 77701

I'll be there with my new HD video camera to hopefully get some footage of the event. Don't be too hard on me for the product as I don't normally go running around with a camera. I just figure somebody's got to do it. If you see some dude with a pony tail and a little red handy-cam, don't hesitate to say howdy!

Mail Bag
Today in the mail bag the Robot received some interesting reading. I love when you guys send me stuff. Especially when I've got a heavy workload as I do now.

First up is from Quigley, who found a Politico article that examines Congress' apparent malaise concerning the budget.
...some Democratic insiders suspect that leaders will skip the budget process altogether this year — a way to avoid the political unpleasantness of voting on spending, deficits and taxes in an election year — or simply go through a few of the motions, without any real effort to complete the work.
Nice to know they think they can push the unpleasent truth under the rug for a year. Not happening on this blog.

Next, also from Q, is a neat little gadget from OpenSecrets.org which will let you know just how much those critters in Congress are worth. Quite telling actually. Freaking aristocrats. Go see for yourself.
I may have to add Open Secrets to my list of useful tools. 
  
Rep. Paul Ryan
Listening to GB today, Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan stopped in and shared a new (to me) website where he lays out the solution to America's budget crisis. I like this guy. A lot. I just wish GB would quit slobbering over the good guys. It's getting kind weird. Did anyone else notice that? He did the same thing with Perry.

That's all for now. I'm back to the studio for more tracking and mixing. Have  great day!
Oh, and I included a couple more Rule 5's for ya. You're welcome.
