Hacks

Democrat leaders are actually issuing talking points for why it’s OK for a congressman to slap people around. Hell, even Glen Greenwald sees through the bullshit and conspiracy theories.

And why are anti-gun activists so violent?

Well, here’s hoping

I am afraid I will be killed.

Joran Van der Sloot

I’m still trying to figure out why that guy is alive. I figured the first victim’s dad would have had his ass capped by now.

The Curious Case of Alvin Greene

This whole Alvin Greene thing in South Carolina is both puzzling and humorous. The Democrat ran no campaign to speak of, not even a webpage. But he won the primary. He had no party support and people claim to have never seen even a yard sign. Speculation is people thought he was singer Al Green. Or that your average voter was just too stupid to vote right.

And he’s a felon. ETA: Not a felon but under indictment for a felony. For showing a porn site to an 18 year old. Really? That’s a felony?

The establishment Democrats aren’t happy about it. And, in fine Democrat tradition, allege it must be voter fraud and are investigating. And they’re calling him stupid.

And, if that doesn’t work, the party of the little guy is pointing out that Greene likely couldn’t afford the $10K pay to play err fee required to run for office on the ticket. And it really costs $10K to the Democrat Party HQ to run for office? Party of the little guy, indeed.

And, in the other fine Democrat tradition, the party will look to disregard election results because it didn’t get the result it wanted. Mark it.

From the NRA Show

From 2010 NRA Annual Meeting

“I have a right to know who you are”

An armed liberal

In NJ, a Democrat takes a pistol class:

I now have an NRA bumper sticker right next to Obama/Biden.

The lesson

In a kids’ soccer game, if you are up by more than five points, you lose the game. No doubt, it’s some hippie’s idea that losing by such an amount is bad for the made up concept of self-esteem. As such, we must do something. Else little Johnny grows up to not like himself very much.

So, we will coddle the losers. And make sure they feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Can’t go hurting their self-esteem by telling them how the world really works. The concept that there are winners and losers and that some people may actually be substantially better than you at something is a harsh reality and must be kept from you. You can’t handle it.

I weep for the future.

OC Update

Some more info on the guy who was open carrying and had his gun taken in a robbery. In Wisconsin, concealed carry is against the law so it’s open or nothing. This may make a case for changing that.

Ok, just one more

Now:

President Obama urged reluctant lawmakers Saturday to quickly approve nearly $50 billion in emergency aid to state and local governments, saying the money is needed to avoid “massive layoffs of teachers, police and firefighters” and to support the still-fragile economic recovery.

But can they shoot

AK Ruminations

From Billy Beck.

The realization that it’s OMG thirty at night and you have to be up in the morning will get you. We were tooling about town and made a few stops here and there. We realized it was almost midnight and I had to be up and at ’em early. I guess if you live there, you get used to it.

Where else can you mow the lawn at 11:00pm?

Check it

Watching Todd Jarrett on the line was amazing. He had an obsession with press checking his firearm. I calculated he press checked is pistol once every 4.2 seconds. Well, it is a good habit to get into. Here’s why.

Alaska: More Pics and Stuff

Went to Talkeetna, and checked out some snow dogs:

Here’s a pic from the dog sled, which was more like a dog cart. In the off season, sleds don’t go as well as a wheeled cart. Who knew?

We also flew to a glacier and here’s a shot from the plane:
