There are two pictures almost identical to each other, you have to find three differences. If you can find three differences, then you are part of an elite group of individuals. This has been tested on 8000 people, and only 19 people out of 8000 found the three differences.

Liberalism at work.

OKLAHOMA CITY—A state Department of Human Services worker says he was punished for trying to report illegal immigrants who were applying for state benefits.
Steve Thomas told the House Revenue and Taxation Committee he tried to follow a rule requiring memos be written to DHS superiors when they come across an applicant who’s an illegal immigrant.

Thomas says he was taken before DHS’ civil rights office and accused of threatening illegal immigrants.

It should be required that anytime a government employee has reason to believe that he is dealing with an illegal alien (or other lawbreaker) that they report that to the authorities.

Rush was talking about this political ad on his show today.  It’s hilarious.

According to Rush the Democrats are trying to claim that this ad is racist.  Can you guess why?

Good enough for you but not for me.

George Clooney

On the ground: George favors a Tango, an electric car that gets a whopping 135 miles to the charge.

In the air: Los Angeles/Tokyo, 5500 miles in a private jet.

Gas guzzled: 7,000 gallons of jet fuel.

Electric shocker: Even with his super-saver Tango, he’ll have to drive over 57 oceans—Pacific Oceans to break even.

So George says: Clooney’s rep, publicist Stan Rosenfield, tells TMZ, “You clearly have no understanding of certain people’s need for private transport,” and points out that Clooney often has “no control” over his travel schedule.

Two environmentalists spent about four hours Monday perched on a ledge over an entrance to a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration building to protest what they said is the agency’s suppression of information on global warming.

The pair, which climbed a ladder to reach the ledge, unfurled a banner that read “Bush: Let NOAA Tell the Truth,” while a small group of demonstrators handed out fliers on a nearby sidewalk.

Police eventually used a cherry picker from a nearby construction site to reach the demonstrators and lower them to the ground.

I would have left them up there whining until they got hungry enough to get down. Hopefully it’d rain or snow or something.

By the way this was interesting from the same story:

A report in the scientific journal Nature last month claimed NOAA administrators blocked the release of a report that linked hurricane strength and frequency to global warming. In February, a NASA climate scientist said NOAA prevents researchers working on climate change from speaking freely about their work.

So since this was a light hurricane season we can assume that global warming fears are a thing of the past.

When Harold Ford loses the Tennessee Senate race he can look back on this moment as when he lost it.

It’s just hilarious how quick he goes from the offensive to realizing that he just blew it.



What’s he going to do now? The Tennessee Ford family don’t do anything but run for office.

Thanks to Powerline.

Sorry that wasn't the clip I was thinking. Click on the second video in the little box on the left. This is the clip that shows him when Ford realizes he just stepped in the kaka.

Well, it seems a bit late since you torpedoed a successful, legal and secret program.  I’m sure that the Terrorists networks changed their procedures know that the Terrorist Times did their research for them.

Since the job of public editor requires me to probe and question the published work and wisdom of Times journalists, there’s a special responsibility for me to acknowledge my own flawed assessments.

My July 2 column strongly supported The Times’s decision to publish its June 23 article on a once-secret banking-data surveillance program. After pondering for several months, I have decided I was off base. There were reasons to publish the controversial article, but they were slightly outweighed by two factors to which I gave too little emphasis. While it’s a close call now, as it was then, I don’t think the article should have been published.

I’m on record that although the Times ran with this story for treasonous reason I don’t think we should challenge their First Amendment protection.  (Or mine as a citizen and Blogger.)  However that protection does not apply to the Times source who should be punished for Treason!  Anyone know what the Constitution provides for that crime?

Yes that is his gun in his ear.  Doesn’t look like he’s following rules two or three either.

Sit in the Corner:

According to Winston’s analysis, there is a material discrepancy between the party identification listed by people in exit polls (people who actually voted) between 1992 and 2004, and those used over the last few weeks.

In short, between 1992 and 2004, only once did one party enjoy an advantage as large as 4 points over the other in party ID. But in recent polling samples used by eight different polling organizations (USA Today/Gallup, CBS/NYTimes, ABC/Washington Post, CNN/Opinion Research, Newsweek, AP/Ipsos, Pew, and Time), the Democratic advantage in the sample surveyed was never less than 5 points. All these organizations conducted surveys in early October. According to Winston, the Democrats held the following party ID advantages in these early-October surveys:

*    USAToday/Gallup: 9 points.
*    CBS/NYT: 5 points
*    ABC/WP: 8 points
*    CNN: did not provide sample party ID details.
*    Newsweek: 11 points.
*    AP/Ipsos: 8 points.
*    Pew: 7 points.
*    Time: 8 points.

So maybe the Republicans will lose.  I don’t think so but my record on predictions is pretty poor.  Given the history of midterm elections it wouldn’t be surprising for the majority party to lose.

On the other hand I have learned not to trust the polls.  When the Republicans took the House by storm in 1994 the media didn’t give them much chance. Another example is the “close” elections that Ronald Reagan had to win the Presidency. 

It seems pretty clear right now that the media polls have stacked the deck against Republicans.  I think they’re trying to depress GOP turnout. 

On the other hand, not everyone is pessimistic.

While some predict Republicans could lose up to 25 seats in the House, Rove predicts the GOP will lose eight to 10—fewer than the 15 seats the Democrats need to gain control, the Washington Post said Sunday.

Rove predicted Democrats wouldn’t be able to capture the six seats needed to retake the Senate, either, the Post said.

But only because he’s dead:

A federal judge Tuesday vacated the conviction of Enron’s late founder Kenneth Lay, wiping out a jury’s verdict that he committed fraud and conspiracy in one of the biggest corporate frauds in U.S. history.

Lay was convicted of 10 counts of fraud, conspiracy and lying to banks in two separate cases on May 25.

Lay died of heart disease July 5 while vacationing with his wife, Linda, in Aspen, Colo.

U.S. District Judge Sim Lake, in a ruling Tuesday, agreed with Lay’s lawyers that his death required erasing his convictions. They cited a 2004 ruling from the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals that found that a defendant’s death pending appeal extinguished his entire case because he hadn’t had a full opportunity to challenge the conviction and the government shouldn’t be able to punish a dead defendant or his estate.

Well things certainly turned out well for Mr. Lay. He got to die on vacation in Aspen rather than rot in prison. All in all I think that God was merciful.

We haven’t heard from Frank Sinatra lately:

Hear him sing it here:

Strangers on my flight,
turbans they’re packin’.
Wonderin’ if they might,
plan a hijacking.
They could pull a stunt,
before this flight is through.

Something’s on their minds.
I saw them mutter.
What that in their hands?
Looks like box cutters,
I’m gonna kick some ass,
if they make a move.

Strangers on my flight.
Two smelly people,
and they’re not talking right;
and in a moment,
I will grab base ball bat;
and that will be that.
Swing like Joe DiMaggio,
and rip them both a new a-hole.

And if they pick a fight,
and try to screw us,
I’ll punch out their lights,
just like Joe Louis.
It would feel so right,
for strangers on my flight.

I found this chart at the OMB.

“Mandatory” spending consists of entitlement spending.  By the time my kids are retired spending on entitlements will amount to 20% of the economy.  The money spent on entitlements will lead to massive deficits and massive interest costs.  Discretionary spending (defense, law enforcement, etc) is projected to remain about the same percentage of our economy.

Of course the leftists will say we should raise taxes so we don’t have the deficits.  Raising taxes will not raise more money.  It would instead diminish economic growth (a huge factor over this time period) and result in less taxes and more need.

Need proof, even though our tax rates our lower than Europe our per capita tax paid is much higher.

The thing to do is cut the strings to the nanny state now.  Expect people that are able to to take care of themselves.  Let us keep our money to save for our retirement. 

Let’s keep the government lean and mean and we’ll leave a much better world for our grandchildren!
