Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †





















Among other remarks, Ron Paul compares Hispanics to Jews in Nazi Germany:
http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/290027/more-drivel-crank-mark-krikorian
Sheeesh…. Ron Paul really should drop the open and highly visible bigotry bit quick. I know his son is from Kentucky and relatively safe as far as conservative politics goes, but he could surely become the laughing stock if he keeps this up.
It is one thing to have core values and beliefs that evolve into bias from experience with various ethnicities. But it becomes another thing alltogether when you allow those bias’s to influence your professional endeavors. Like it or not RP has to represent all of the various people within his district. Not just WASPS.
Happy Friday, Treepers! Have some coffee, and let us know what’s on your mind.
Hey Grunt – I hear you guys are supposed to get 2 feet of snow. You must be getting our ration as well as your own.
Hey, Stella! You are so right. Sorry it took me so long to see your comment. I’ve been shoveling snow!
God bless you today! I like the gravatar collage, how did you do it?
Ad rem made it for our Happy Birthday post on Feb 1. We like it so much, SD is using it for the OT. She’ll have to explain it to you! If you didn’t already, take a look at the Happy Birthday post too.
Hey Loopy and stellap, I too love seeing the gravatar montage from the anniversary celebration up here this mornin; but, is there any chance of X-ing out moooooshell’s pic, that’s way too scary looking a face to hang here.
Yeah, can we replace with the face of Jim Caviezel? He’s nice to look at. . . or if there’s a nice lady’s face that the gents would prefer? Teh Wookie’s face is teh scareh. . .
You guys will have to ask the Puddy!
Loops, I dunno how Puddy did it but one thing is certain, it had to take a long time to put together like that. variances, sizing, flash overlaps, grouping and timing etc. etc. I don’t have the slightest idea how to do something that technical as a collage of gifs.
All hail Puddy brilliance.
Brilliant indeed!!!
Hail yes!
In Ireland the billboards say, “Rain, Sleet and Hail – Guinness” – Hail it is then Puddy – Cheers!

“SEAL Team 6: A Big Secret, Unless Obama Wants To Brag”
http://www.americanthinker.com/2012/02/seal_team_6_a_big_secret_unless_obama_wants_to_brag.html
Gee, would I be surprised when dear leader begins to give each of these heroes a shout-out by name and address! Destroy them with good deeds and intentions.
I think he should just cut to the chase, quit picking around the edges, and take the damn guys from ST-6 on tour with him. Load them in the Death Star busses and parade them in a travelling show to all 57 states.
The Seal Team could hoist Obama on their shoulders and parade in to massive venues where they could stage a live reenactment for everyone. George Lucas could develop and direct the massive recreations with a symphonic orchestra providing the incredible soundtrack; And pyrotechnics, oh hell yeah, massive pyrotechnics to add emphasis and awe.
They could name it the “Gutsy Call Tour”…..
Every time Obambi’s administration talks about ST-6, hubby’s blood pressure spikes. He usually yells at the t.v., too.
The one’s that are left, that is.
Ohayo Minna! A Troubling update to a story featured in the Tree yesterday:
The scientists drilling down to Lake Vostok have not been in contract for 5 days, not responding to any communications.
http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2012/02/02/russian-scientists-lost-in-frozen-land-lost/?intcmp=features
*sigh* when will “smart” people learn from the likes of my paranoid self? . . .
Mine’s on…..
Also? That happened in the above mentioned book, as well…..
Yikes…..
See. See, toldyaso. They encountered the organism that transforms into the life beings it encounters. They dipped their drill into earth’s hidden toilet bowl, covered for Millenia, now massive strains of bacteria and way scary organisms have been set free.
aaaaaiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee………………
And it never occurs to these people that caution might be necessary. . . Like what the Phobos-Grunt Mission was supposed to do (before it crapped out)– let’s plant bacteria into a Martian Moon and see what happens over the next coupla centuries! What could possibly go wrong?!
They’re all the sort of thing that, if written as a Sci-Fi novel, would be excoriated by reviews due to lack of believability that any group of people so smart could be so incredibly stupid. . .
And then when folks like us dare question their logic and methodology, they get all defensive and High Church of Science on us. . .
Trust the “smart ones” to bring about the end of our species . . .
It’s this incessent tinkering with nature that screws up the works every time. Cue Dolly.

I was in Germany for an interview yesterday. It went very well. I like the company and the opportunity is fabulous.
The other company (interviewed last fall) is still in a hiring freeze, although they indicated they want to hire me when the hiring freeze is lifted.
It’s 10 degrees F (-12 C). I am baking a yellow cake with lemon pastry custard filling and a chocolate-lemon glaze. And a batch of brownies made with real Swiss chocolate (not that horrible stuff the rest of the world has to suffer through).
Greetings from ZurichMike
Mike– sounds like you’re having a lovely time, despite the cold!
Sounds de-lish!! Pictures! – why, it sounds like it would be yummy with bacon!
Hey ZM! Will be praying for you. Glad to hear the interview went well. Please post pix of the yummy food!
Z-MIke, Hopefully, you didn’t mean high-grade yellowcake as in the above Flashback GWB thread….
Good luck on the job search. I found the best job ever a few years ago – retired!
Onward & Upward,
Brookyln
Problem with retirement – you never get a day off…
Yum! I make a lemon cake with lemon curd filling and lemon buttercream. Heaven! But a lot of work.
Good luck with the job!
Mmm…sounds delicious, ZM. Just reading about those sweets put an instant 5lbs. on my hips.
Viel Glück dabei, Mike! Hope it works out for you

Oh I listened to that late last night. Delicious. Sounds like Levin is about to crawl through the airwaves and peel the mask off Romney….. Everyone should listen to that audio.
Morning, Treepers. Just saw the new jobless report. Unemployment down to 8.3% Economy strong. Why don’t I feel like popping the corks? I. AM. SO CYNICAL.
Have a good day everyone!
Of course, that’s the U3. The U6, however, is up over 16% – thanks to the 1.2million people who gave up and dropped out of the work force in December.
But, don’t worry! D’OHbama’s got a plan!
Yepper – droppin’ the yellow BS flag, I am!!
The unemployment rate is “down” to 8.3%, huh. I guess that’s kind of like the chocolate rations going “up” in 1984.
Yeah, sure. I will inject one good piece of news – our company is hiring 10 new employees, and replacing one who just moved to another company.

Well said! I like a manly man as much as the next red-blooded American gal, but there is such a thing as good grooming and manners.
On the other hand, I’m convinced that much of the fashion and beauty industry exists just to keep me poor.
Men get all sweaty and nasty most of the time, so long as they spiffy up when they come over I’m fine with that stuff. I’m right there with you honey, have ya seen my hair?? Aquanet was invented because of me
Menage, I think that idiot needs to have “the talk.” And Tim Hawkins is the man to do it.
I do believe DH has committed every one of those sins…..hmmm…..
I am truly sorry to hear that, W2. No woman deserves that. Now put the Makarov back in the cabinet. He didn’t mean any of it. He was just being a stupid guy. That’s prolly why the cat attacks him.

Cut gov’t spending meets Romneycare. Wacky meets business as usual. Guy Smiley teaming up with Brother Theodore…
http://static.dramastyle.com/images/casts/United_States/Brother_Theodore_actress.jpg
First, they are both bigots of the highest order. Ron Paul and Mitt Romney have much in common. Not political stuff, but views of blacks, jews, hispanics, etc. etc. It is obvious they both hold the same ideological bigotry but for two different reasons.
RP got his from being older, and being opposed to civil rights under the auspices that everyone should be allowed to descriminate as part of their abject freedom.
MR got his from being a silver-spooner and having daddy smooth the cobblestones so his birkenstocks never got caught on the pavers. “I can’t have illegals working for me, I’m running for office for Pete’s sake”….. In Romney world niggers, chinks, wet-backs and kikes all have their purpose. Wet-backs do the ouside gardening, niggers do the inside cleaning and service items, chinks do the laundry stuff, and the kikes manage the bill paying and finances.
Wives of both get along like peas and carrots.
Everyone sign the petition: I stand with Koman dot com.
http://www.lifesitenews.com/news/komen-donations-soar-after-cutting-ties-with-planned-parenthood
Now they are saying they have backed down. Sigh! Conservatives never win, do they? Anyway, the cynic in me has an idea. Do you think they deliberately did this, so PP gets a huge money inflow which undoubtedly would be given to Obama campaign?
Anyway, this is sick. I feel for all the people who donated to them in support of their previous decision. Will they give the money back to donors or is that money going to be given to PP as well?
Actually, it’s the unborn who lose everytime. When God decides to reveal His wrath in response to the cries of these innocent souls, these scumbags won’t know what hit them.
I was just coming on to post that Koman bowed to pressure and have now reversed their decision. I just don’t have the stomach to post the link. This is how 20% of the population rules over the rest of us. Sad.
I just sent an email to the executive director of Komen in St. Louis – for what it’s worth:
re-funding planned parenthood
vladimir solaratov
12:45 PM (0 minutes ago)
to hwc
Following your withdrawal of funding from the planned parenthood abortion industry, I had planned to begin donating regularly to you. I applauded your move to cut off money to an organization which is racist in its policies and is based on the eugenic – ie: ‘master race’ – theories of margaret sanger; and whose business consists of murdering the unborn children of 91.5% of its customers.
However, I read in today’s news that you had made the patently political decision to restore funding to the planned parenthood abortion industry.
Consequently, I have made the patently moral decision to not begin donating to Susan G. Komen for the Cure. I feel that supporting the murder of unborn children in any way is wrong; and I refuse to voluntarily donate money that will be used – even in part – for that purpose.
In the event that Susan G. Komen for the Cure decides to defund planned parenthood in actuality – and abide by that decision rather than bend to political pressure from abortion supporters and the abortion industry – I shall re-evaluate my decision in re donations to your organization.
Thank you for the good work that you do
*******************************************************************
I should imagine that the response to that will be a bid, “Meh.” Given that I don’t have political clout; or millions to lavish on them ala bloomberg.
They made their bed. Let’em sleep in it.
An excellent letter, Vlad. I applaud you!
I did sign it with my “*actual*” name. It’s funny, though. I didn’t put V.S. on the email – but gmail added that for me.
This technology stuff gets confoosin’.
It’s a shame. Because we know that PP doesn’t actually do mammograms (very few if any). What they do is refer women to other providers who do mammograms. Not only that, but having an abortion actually increases a woman’s chances of getting breast cancer later on in life.
Pregnancy seems to lessen your chances of getting breast cancer, and taking birth control pills does the same. I suspect women who have abortions interrupt the hormonal protection.
Because the birth control pills works by tricking your body into thinking you are pregnant, so I imagine it has to do with the hormones that come along with pregnancy. When they are abruptly halted after an abortion, then something happens that increases the chance for breast cancer. I can’t remember the whole medical reason but it definitely has something to do with the hormones and the affect they have on your breasts. (which as mom of four I can say are substantial).
This site has a differing stance on birth control pills regarding cancer. They state a decreased chance of ovarian and endometrial cancer but a possible increase in breast cancer.
http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/factsheet/Risk/oral-contraceptives
Absolutely, barnslayer! My oncologists said my breast cancer was estrogen related and most likely from taking birth control pills. They gave me strict orders to never again take anything containing estrogen. After surgery, they would not allow standard medication treatment because it had trace amounts.

Under the Be Careful With Spell-Check category, comes this gem from a friend who teaches history at an H-town area community college. In a paper written by a student, the following appears concerning the 300 Spartans at Thermopylae:
“They taunted their Persia [sic] enemies with yells of ‘Molar Labia’ to get them to attack…”
She says that the kid is bright, but he just can’t spell and uses spell-check without checking the appropriateness of the suggested words. Oh, and he wants to be a doctor… Couldn’t tell, could you?
LOL!! I know what field, as well!!
Oh snap. That’s friggin funny right there.
What did she do? Did she circle the words and tell him go go look them up? Oh man. That’s flippin funny
Yes, she corrected the paper and showed him the right way to use spell check. And yes, the kid is smart enough to be more than a little chagrined. My friend said that when, “What is Molon Labe?” is on Jeopardy, he’ll sure get it right!

A friend of mine owned one – and we used to take it out sh00ting (back in Virginia). It’s a hell of a gun.
Came with two trigger groups: semi-auto and full-auto. Semi we could handle – but we never tried the full.
At one time, that gun was a potent tank-killer that would stop any tank of the time.
Mississippi Most Conservative State, D.C. Most Liberal
State patterns in ideology largely stable compared with previous years
http://www.gallup.com/poll/152459/Mississippi-Conservative-State-Liberal.aspx
Washington is #4 at 26.4% lib. Only 26.4%? Really?
Seriously…if in their most populated states, they still aren’t the majority. It’s amazing to me that they are able to control the narrative anyway…and we LET THEM! Infuriating.
The squeaky wheel gets the grease. We’re busy working. Protesting and raising hell is all they do, and always in front of a microphone or camera.
It’s because people don’t want to admit to being liberal. Plus the intelectually honest crowd only talks liberal, they live conservative.

Spreading his community organization skills into every little sub-category of society.
“Little” POTUS is right. After all that’s happened, I’m aghast that there are still people driving around with Obama/Biden bumper stickers on their Priuses. I was behind an Acura MDX yesterday at a light, with assorted Christian oriented stickers, a pink Komen ribbon (of course) and a fresh Obama/Biden. It took all the restraint I had not to get out and go up to the driver’s window and say “You a$$hole.” And I’m not kidding.

America’s Most Miserable Cities, 2012
http://realestate.yahoo.com/promo/americas-most-miserable-cities-2012.html
Is it just me or are most of these cities run by a certain political party?
Well, I’m about 1/4 mile north of Detroit, and about two miles west of Warren. I live in a older very liberal trendy community (home of the Green party and, until last year, host to Gay Pride). Our housing values are in the toilet. I have to say, though, that business has picked up significantly, at least from my viewpoint. They mention Flint and Detroit, but we also have Pontiac, Saginaw, and Benton Harbor – all disaster areas.
Because the powers that be iz crazy, we shall play Crazy.
Good one! Maybe we should post “American Pie”, since this is the anniversary of that fateful day. Or perhaps music by Chuck Berry, The Big Bopper, or Richie Valens.

I said Chuck Berry, but I meant Buddy Holly. Brain fart! Anyway, love the Big Bopper:
Don’t matter – we like Chuck, too!!

Guys! Just got the daughter back through the howling blizzard, after her bartending job. She had her first Jihadi bar fight, and I missed it! I guess everyone was more smashed than usual, since the cops are too busy with accidents to care, and one of the regulars was there with his rowdy muslim girlfriend. She’d had a few too many absoluts on the rocks, which I hear is a favorite Islamic cocktail, second only to the Molotov.
Actually not kidding about the vodka.
So, a Sikh group comes in with turbans on, and one of the guys at the bar, stupidly but quietly, says “Look, the terrorists are here.”
Obviously, Sikhs are not Muslim, but that didn’t matter to Muslim-Girlfriend, who started shouting across the bar at the guy who made the terrorist comment. “Hey, I’m Muslim, you pig! And I’m proud of it! Even though my Father will eventually get around to honor-killing me for dating a Christian man and drinking Swedish vodka!” I made that last part up, even though it may be true, one would think. So, not content to yell, she runs around the bar and, being 5′ 3″, jumps up behind the idiot and gets him in a choke hold, and proceeds to beat the crap out of his skull with her other fist.
For something like 30 seconds, no one knows what to do but eventually, the boyfriend pulls her off him, and everybody starts yelling and the police are called, and she eventually bolts. Boyfriend is pretty embarrassed, but everyone else is cool, since they have stuff to talk about for the rest of the night!
I ALWAYS miss the fun stuff!
I know! Me, too!
WTH and nobody got up and beat the BBE out of her? Yeah that is the America I know now.Better have another to wash it all away.
Bars can be such entertaining places. You never know what might happen.
