snaggletoothie of the Loyal Opposition --- THE BLOG OF "NO" -- Because someone must stand between civilization and chaos and say, "No more today, thanks."
Liberal women are the active, driving force behind hatred of Sarah Palin, while liberal men’s behavior is passive and manipulative. In this respect, feminism has succeeded in reversing the traditional sexual stereotypes. If this is the result, you have to wonder why anyone would have bothered.
. . . the deepest punishment of a lie is to be the one who tells the lie. That person has to live with someone he cannot trust. . . . Always remember: every word you utter becomes flesh - in you. Selwyn Hughes
Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy--meditate on these things.
REFUDIATE SOCIALISM

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

There are 460,000 illegal aliens currently inside Arizona's borders, and the reason they're there is that the federal government refuses to enforce our immigration laws. [. . .]
Shouldn't President Obama be embarrassed by some of this? This is a federal job. They're not doing it.
I was a nurse until 3 years ago. I worked on psychiatric and chemical dependency units. I am now disabled because of spinal injuries. I cannot walk very well. My use of my hands improved enough so that I can type and open some jars. I do a conservative political opinion blog with music and poetry. I am nearing the launch of a blog that will be devoted to discussion of the classic great books from Homer to Joyce and Faulkner.
Suddenly, when I find myself in the presence of a New Yorker, I have to ask, "Is this someone who is too stupid to understand the importance of this insensitivity?"
I recognize that as prejudice on my part, but...so be it.
If I run into a New Yorker who supports the building of the mosque at ground zero, I will turn and walk away from him/her.
I am going to reproduce here one of the best things I've seen on the subject of the GZ mosque. It is a comment by 'keep the change' and he left it at Hot Air.com yesterday.
"Freedom of religion means you have the right to worship without being arrested for it. It does not mean you have the right to erect any building anywhere you want. For that, you need something called a permit. It’s called a permit because you need to be permitted to do that. And permits are denied for a myriad of reasons, not least of which is whether or not said proposed activity does, or does not, cause offense to the community standards. In this case, it does, to the tune of 65%. Even without that info, city council denies permits every day for no better reason than they themselves don’t like what is proposed. That’s how it works. There are no rights, constitutional or otherwise, at play here. There is only the issue of permits. And that is where this thing should have been stopped, where a thousand other applications for permits are stopped." http://hotair.com/archives/2010/08/20/quotes-of-the-day-431/comment-page-1/#comments
And, Joe, have you run across the site called Pun of the Day at http://www.punoftheday.com/?
Today's pun: “I don't know what possessed me to attend that seance.”

It is good to hear from you, Joe.
