Yeah, Okay. I posted a blog entry about it. I’m sure Johnson will see this. Hi Chuck! 😛 I just wish I had Chuck’s money. (Donations?) (That happens to be my first name, so, I feel a bit weird ripping on someone with the same first name is me, it’s just….odd. 😯 )
Yeah, the guys a douche nozzle. Well, some people think I am too! So, I cannot carp too loudly. Lest I be accused to being a hypocrite.
But what I really wanna know is… Would a Wood Chuck, Chuck wood….Oh NEVER MIND! *Slams Door*
I guess this is what happens, when I try to be civil to people. A few days ago, I wrote about a video that I happened to see over on HotAir.com, it was about Ron Paul and him yowling on about how evil the C.I.A and how they were co-opting the Military. It was, if felt, a very stupid and borderline Alex Jones sounding nonsense.
Not entirely surprising, some of Ronnie Paul’s little sock puppets and mindless stooges came over to make their inane arguments about how wrong I was, and have horribly evil the Government is and so forth. At first, I thought about deleting them, but I figured I would be a little charitable and let them have their say, I also notified a friend of mine, who one of the commenters slandered, my friend said he was not too worried about what this person said, and so, I decided I would try to engage these people.
This proved to be a foolish mistake, because right now, sitting on one a man’s blog, who calls himself, “The Fat Libertarian.” Who’s actually name is Robert Timsah, and who lives at [snipped]-— on his blog, which I will never link to, is a video of him discussing my responses to his idiotic feelings about me, Republicans; of which I am not affiliated with, or Neo-Cons, which I am not — mainly because I am not Jewish. With the Ron Paul people, as with the Liberal Left, Neo-Con is code word for some sort of Jewish cabal. Anyhow, this video was shot without my consent, approval, or even knowledge. Which could be grounds for a major lawsuit, should I desire to pursue this in a court of law.
In any event, I removed the discussion with this man and his libertarian sock puppets, because I was essentially set up. Therefore, here is my message to the Ron Paul-ites who read this blog:
YOU ARE NOT WELCOME HERE ANYMORE…
I am the nicest person you would ever want to meet, rarely am I a “Hard Ass” about anything. However, when I decide to give someone a chance and that person abuses that chance, I stop being a nice person. Since one of the Ron Paul idiots decided that deceiving me and filming contents of my blog, without my authorization would be cute, I have decided stop Ron Paul’s fans from having any say on my blog, ever again. I am all for freedom of speech, but when those who believe in freedom of speech decide to engage in deception, that freedom stops with me.
As for the video, I reported it to youtube, hopefully, they pull it, as my rights were violated here, in a big way. I may also pursue this in a court of law. I do have an attorney friend of mine, who owes me a big favor. I did some web consulting work for him once, and he told me, if I ever had a legal problem to call him. I might check with him on Monday.
So, to the Ron Paul people, consider yourselves persona non gratia around these parts.
Update: This “Fat Libertarian” was kind enough to remove the video, so, I removed his address. But my feelings about these people remain unabated.
Duke Ellington and his orchestra playing this awesome tune in 1943.
“It Don’t Mean a Thing (If It Ain’t Got That Swing)” is a 1931 composition by Duke Ellington with lyrics by Irving Mills, now accepted as a jazz standard. The music was written and arranged by Ellington in August 1931 during intermissions at Chicago’s Lincoln Tavern and was first recorded by Ellington and his orchestra for Brunswick Records (Br 6265) on February 2, 1932. Ivie Anderson sang the vocal and trombonist Joe Nanton and alto saxophonist Johnny Hodges played the instrumental solos. The title was based on the oft stated credo of Ellington’s former trumpeter Bubber Miley, who was dying of tuberculosis. The song became famous, Ellington wrote, “as the expression of a sentiment which prevailed among jazz musicians at the time.” Probably the first song to use the phrase “swing” in the title, it introduced the term into everyday language and presaged the Swing Era by three years. The Ellington band played the song continuously over the years and recorded it numerous times, most often with trumpeter Ray Nance as vocalist.

A follow up to what I set for an post at 9:00 this morning… Looks like Keith Olbermann might have made a slight mistake.
Tommy Christopher explains:
Just hours after Jon Stewart’s sharply observant takedown of Keith Olbermann’s Special Comment segments, the Countdown host launched into a diatribe that made Stewart’s segment look like a love letter. In railing against yesterday’s hotly debated Supreme Court decision, he effectively said it was worse than slavery, and compared Floyd Abrams, who is Jewish, to a Nazi.
Is Keith losing it?
While the wisdom of the court’s decision is the subject of heated debate, the ramifications are not. Earlier in the show, Howard Fineman said that he didn’t think they could be overstated. He was wrong.
[….]
His assertion that this decision was worse than Dred Scott doesn’t just border on offensive, it crosses it and buys a condo. Comparing renowned First Amendment lawyer Floyd Abrams to Nazi Vidkun Quisling is vile on its face, so far beyond the pale that the pale needs a telescope to see it, but it also reveals a key symptom of Olbermann’s creeping mania. This was personal.
Floyd Abrams, as is widely known, is the father of this site’s founder, Dan Abrams. He and Olbermann were colleagues for years at MSNBC, and Olbermann provided the lead-in for “Verdict with Dan Abrams.” I don’t know anything about their relationship, but I know that such a personal connection to a story would warrant either extremely sensitive handling (strike one), disclosure of said connection (strike two), or both (the whiff!).
Head on over read this take down of Olbermann. Tommy Christopher is quite the liberal and when he is complaining, something is dreadfully wrong. I knew this, when Olbermann brought the actress on who called the Tea Party protesters, “White Racist Bigots”; that was the end for me. Now, it seems liberals are seeing it too. Good for them.
Bottom Line: Olbermann’s Schick is long past its shelf life and I think he needs to go back to sports, badly.
Sorry guys. I’m just not feeling well today at all. 🙁
I had a rough time sleeping and I didn’t get the rest I needed. So, I’m gonna just sit it out today. I’ll be back at it tomorrow and more so in full force on Monday.
Check out some of the blogs in my blogroll.
Thanks,

Wow… I’m shocked… I wrote about this myself yesterday, But I never expected this out of Keith.

Like Carter’s, Obama’s presidency will face complications. As a Nobel Peace Prize laureate whose most notable foreign-policy decision so far has been further committing the United States to a war in Afghanistan, Obama is well aware that U.S. interests don’t always correspond with a universally recognized moral standard. Carter had to face the fanaticism of Khomeini and an aroused Iranian people. Obama must deal with the Islamist extremism inspired by Osama bin Laden, and the temptation will always exist to address such problems through military action. Obama acknowledged as much in his Nobel address. But the prudent statesman, as Carter discovered, will know that the decision to use force always places a nation onto morally uncertain terrain in which power is limited and losses may sometimes have to be absorbed. Despite the many challenges that arose during his presidency, Carter avoided putting the United States in that position. This was not weakness; it was shrewd statecraft, and a worthy example for Obama to follow.

I will be quite honest with you all, and my regular readers know; I do not mince words around here and I speak my mind, without fear. Anyhow, I am no Michele Bachmann fan at all. But I think this was way out of line. Even for an old duffer like this guy.
Of course, my favorite radio dust up is this one here:
Comedy-gold…. 😀
