Idiot Dubai Arab picks the wrong woman to try and rape!

This is too awesome and the feel good story of the day!

An off-duty U.S. navy sailor wrestled a Dubai bus driver to the ground and beat him into submission after he tried to rape her at knifepoint on Jan. 19, a courtroom heard Wednesday.
The woman, 28, was on 24-hour shore leave in Dubai when she was attacked by a bus driver after he picked her up from the Mall of the Emirates shopping center.
“I noticed he did not take the main road and when I asked him he told me not to worry,” she said, according to the Daily Mail.
He then stopped where several other buses were parked and tried to kiss her. After she refused, he pulled out a knife and tried to rape her.
Prosecutors said that she knocked the knife from his hand, broke it in two, bit him in the hand, forced him to the ground and locked him between her thighs, the Daily Mail reports.
The man, known as K S, has been charged with attempted rape, threatening to kill, assault and consuming alcohol illegally, the Daily Mail reports.

…and here I thought that Liberals were the only classless assholes. Guess not. 😀 After all, liberals do defend terrorists, like the one’s who blew up those bombs in D.C. 🙄

The Friday Morning Music Express – Special Memorial Edition – Presents George Jones

The Possum has died…

And so much more. But, I cannot post them all. The great possum has left us and this earth for his Heavenly home.

The Story:

NASHVILLE — George Jones, whose supple Texas voice conveyed heartbreak so profound that he became perhaps the most imitated singer in country music, died Friday at Vanderbilt University Medical Center after being hospitalized with high fever and irregular blood pressure. He was 81.
Hank Williams may have set country music’s mythology and Johnny Cash its attitude, but Jones gave the genre its ultimate voice. With recordings that spanned 50 years, including No. 1 singles White Lightning, She Thinks I Still Care and He Stopped Loving Her Today, Jones influenced generations of country singers and was considered by many to be the greatest of them all.
Jones’ life also included legendary battles with substance abuse, mostly alcohol, and four marriages, including one to fellow singer Tammy Wynette, and another, his last and longest, to Nancy Sepulvado.
Ultimately, though, it was that voice that won Jones two Grammys, got him into the Country Music Hall of Fame and made him an American musical icon. That plaintive voice that seemed to break down at will and wallow in sorrow. That voice of honky-tonk eloquence that held tortured echoes of heroes like Williams, Roy Acuff and Lefty Frizzell. That finely nuanced voice that offered thrill rides of emotions, with twists and turns, slippery, bending notes and sudden drops.
Jones’ performances weren’t just an emotional rollercoaster, they were the whole theme park. — Via USA Today

Living proof that liberal Democrats are classless assholes

Warning: This blog posting contains swearing! If that bothers you; plug your ears! 😉

Sorry to say it; but this right here, pretty much seals the deal for me. I am officially done with Democratic Party. Come next election, I will vote Republican or Libertarian or I just won’t vote.

The Story:

Today, four past Presidents and current President Barack Obama were in Dallas, Texas to commemorate the completion of the George W. Bush Presidential Center. It wasn’t a day for politics, but of public service. The “five Presidents” make up the world’s most exclusive club.
Though, the Dallas County Democratic Party didn’t get the memo. They posted a photoshop of President Obama holding bunny ears behind former President George W. Bush.

The Photoshop in question:

Texas Democrats and The Democratic National Committee —- Classy as always!

Now honestly folks, I admit it, I was not a Bush fan; he came into power, when I still was working and at time, I was not really following politics. Back then, my political involvement was going to the voting booth and pulling for the Democratic Party, which I did in 2000. Other than that, I really did not care for it at all. I figured they were all crooks, and I just figured that the Democrats were less of crooks than the others.

Needless to say, I have come a good way since then; and I will admit, I agreed at first with the President’s decision to invade Iraq and then when it came very clear that there were no WMD’s, but merely parts; my support of the Iraq War ended. Having said all of that; I am glad that the Iraq War ended like it did, with the USA on top and you know what? We won the goddamned thing. Funny how the idiotic liberal left refuses to even acknowledge that very fact.

Having said all the above; my open question to the Democratic Party and to the liberal left of all shades and stripes is this right here —- Is really entirely necessary to act like complete and absolute fucking assholes towards a former President like this? Is it really? Does it really help your progressive cause to act like fucking school children; all because a President spanked your sorry asses in TWO election cycles?

Now, please, keep in mind; I do not write this as some sort of rich Republican white guy, who has never voted Democratic Party before in my life. I am writing this as someone who voted Democratic Party as recently as 2000 for Al Gore and in 2004 for John Kerry. Furthermore, I write this as a son of a retired General Motors Worker and UAW retiree member, who has, with his wife, consistently voted for the Democratic Party since he came to Michigan and married.

It is sad to see that the Democratic Party has honestly gotten that petty, that they feel the need to act that childish. 🙄

The Public School System is going to hell in a hand-basket, as always.

I have no words for this one folks, not one:

Video:

The Story:

Parents of children attending a Red Hook, New York, middle school are outraged after a recent anti-bullying presentation at Linden Avenue Middle School.
The workshop for 13 and 14-year-old girls focused on homosexuality and gender identity. They were also taught words such as “pansexual” and “genderqueer.”
Parents say their daughters were told to ask one another for a kiss and they say two girls were told to stand in front of the class and pretend they were lesbians on a date.
“She told me, ‘Mom we all get teased and picked on enough. Now I’m going to be called a lesbian because I had to ask another girl if I could kiss her,'” parent, Mandy Coon, told reporters.
Coon says parents were given no warning about the presentation and there was no opportunity to opt-out. Both the school principal and the district superintendent are defending the workshops and advising they will schedule more.
“The school is overstepping its bounds in not notifying parents first and giving us the choice,” another parent said. “I thought it was very inappropriate. That kind of instruction is best left up to the parents.”
“I was absolutely furious — really furious,” a parent who asked to remain anonymous told reporter Todd Starnes, “These are just kids. I’m dumbfounded that they found this class was appropriate.”
Superintendent Paul Finch told The Poughkeepsie Journal the presentation was “focused on improving culture, relationships, communication and self-perceptions.”
“We may require more notification to parents in the future,” Finch said

One simply word comes to mind: Unbelievable. One word folks: Home-School. I did it, and so should every parent today. Because the public school system has just become too evil to send your children to it anymore.

Special Comment: Wars are not an excuse for murder

This is one of those special comments that I really should not have to write. However, because I feel that, some might actually think, that I actually agree with the actions of these terrorists and with the reasoning for committing these acts of violence — I am writing this to clear up any and all misunderstandings that some might have about my stance on this act of cowardice.

As some of you might know, I am not a Neoconservative. I disagreed with President Bush’s decision to invade the Nation of Iraq in 2003. I am, in fact, a Paleoconservative with leanings of the libertarian sort. I am well aware of the fact that some Paleoconservatives and Libertarian types feel that America somehow or another; because of the foreign policy blunders of the past, deserves these terrorists attacks. Let me publicly state that I happen to disagree with that sort of mentality. It is anti-American, it is hateful and it is UnChristlike, if there ever was such a thing.

I also happen to know the philosophy of the Islamic religion; which basically is, that anyone that is not a Muslim, is an infidel and the Muslim religion does say that Muslims are to wage Jihad against those who are not converts to that backward Religion of war —- hence my issue, as a Christian, with that Religion.

Let me state emphatically that any Religion that tells you that killing an innocent 8-year-old boy is somehow or another justified, because of the actions of a Government that said 8-year-old boy has no control over or no say in what they do — that religion has a serious problem. There is a thing called morality and I still do happen to believe in that sort of a thing. I know what our Government is doing in foreign lands and I wish we as Americans could change that; but I refuse to believe that killing an 8-year-old boy is somehow a moral equivalent. Anyone who believes that sort of stupidity is well beyond the realm of normal cynicism. In fact, I believe that this sort of mentality is reprehensible.

I also happen to notice that the elder terrorist, who is now deceased, was collecting welfare benefits. This is ironic, seeing that the taxpayers who fund those welfare benefits are the very people that were his targets for his bombs. This speaks volumes of the hypocrisy of the radical Muslims.

Another thing that very much annoys me is the statement by the United Nations, that somehow or another the United States had it coming —- seriously? Who asked those nitwits anyhow? Even more reason for the United States of America to withdraw from the United Nations and send them packing to somewhere, like maybe Switzerland or maybe Cuba with the rest of the Communists. Let me also say that anyone who would disagree with what I just wrote about the United Nations would either be a leftist, an Anti-American dolt or both — most are both.

In closing: This is not a call for all Muslims to be deported or any sort of nonsense like that; this is simply a plea from an American Christian to the American and International Muslim communities to stand up against these radicals and denounce what they do and take stand against them. However, because I am a realist, I happen to know that this will never happen. This is because of that fact that, in the Muslim Nations around the world — if a Muslim speaks out against the Muslim of the radical sort, they run the risk of killed for doing so. So far, here in America that is not the case. However, there are those who are pushing for Sharia Law here in America. So far, those efforts have been rebuffed. Here is hoping that this continues to be the case —- for our sakes as American Christians.

Pictures from the Boston shootout with Russian Muslim Terrorists

Regardless of one’s opinions on what went on in Boston; this is some super scary stuff here.

One picture I will hotlink to is this one here:

Original caption reads: After shooting had stopped my roommate found a bullet hole that penetrated his west-facing wall and continued to pierce through his desk chair. His room is on the 2nd floor corner of the house, closest to the street, with west and south facing walls

Put yourself in this guy’s shoes for one second. Scary ain’t it? 😯

The Monday Night Music Express – Special Memorial Edition presents: Richie Havens

He was the one, who opened Woodstock 1969 and now, He is with Jimi, Janis and the rest.

The Videos:

http://youtu.be/KSsrddsfAe8

http://youtu.be/fA51wyl-9IE

Here is Rich Havens talking about his Woodstock 1969 performance:

The Story:

NEW YORK (AP) — Richie Havens, the folk singer and guitarist who was the first performer at Woodstock, died Monday at age 72.
Havens died of a heart attack in New Jersey, his family said in a statement. He was born in Brooklyn.
Havens was known for his crafty guitar work and cover songs, including his well-received cover of Bob Dylan’s “Just Like a Woman.”
His performance at the three-day 1969 Woodstock Festival, where headliners included Jimi Hendrix, was a turning point in his career. He was the first act to hit the stage, performing for nearly three hours. His performance of “Freedom,” based from the spiritual “Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child,” became an anthem.
Havens returned to the site during Woodstock’s 40th anniversary in 2009.
“Everything in my life, and so many others, is attached to that train,” he said in an interview that year with The Associated Press.
Woodstock remains one of the events that continues to define the 1960s in the popular imagination. Performers included The Who, Janis Joplin, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young and dozens of others, and the trippy anarchy of Woodstock has become legendary. There was lots of nudity, casual sex, dirty dancing and open drug use. The stage announcer famously warned people to steer clear of the brown acid.
Havens had originally been scheduled to go on fifth but had been bumped up because of travel delays. Festival producer Michael Lang said in the book “The Road to Woodstock” that he chose Havens “because of his calm but powerful demeanor.”
His performance lasted hours because the next act hadn’t showed up.
“So I’d go back and sing three more,” Havens said in an interview with NPR. “This happened six times. So I sung every song I knew.”
Havens’ website said that he had kidney surgery in 2010 and that he never recovered enough to perform concerts like he used to. He performed at Bill Clinton’s presidential inauguration in 1993. — NYT

More Via Guitar Player Magazine:

Folk music singer and guitarist Richie Havens, who opened the 1969 Woodstock music festival, died Monday, April 22, of a heart attack at his home in Jersey City, New Jersey. He was 72.
Havens, who retired from performing three years ago, toured for more than 40 years and recorded 30 albums. However, he’ll probably be best known as the opening act at the Woodstock Music and Art Fair, where he performed one of his most famous songs, “Freedom,” his own version of a spiritual called “Motherless Child.”
Actually, that day, Havens had no choice but to play every song he knew.
Scheduled fifth on the bill for the opening day of the Woodstock festival on August 15, 1969, Havens and his band were forced to go on early because other bands were busy fighting traffic on the way to the festival grounds in Bethel, New York.
“It was 5 o’clock and nothing was happening yet,” Havens told Billboard. “I had the least instruments (to set up on stage) and the least people (in his band).” Havens performed for 40 minutes. “I went back and did that, then it was, ‘Four more songs …,’ and that kept happening ’til two hours and 45 minutes later, I had sung every song I know.”

May he rest in peace. 🙁

Glenn Beck’s big thing, turns out to be a nothing-burger

As I so thought it would be…..

Remember I wrote about what I thought Glenn Beck was going to do?

Well, it turns out, I was right; it is nothing more than a nothing-burger.

Which basically means it was nothing more than factual information, ~~stuff he was making up~~ information from anonymous sources, and basically racially tinged conspiracy theory of the Alex Jones type that he seems to like to pull out of his ass. (As always…) Like the story of his Mother’s death for instance.

I give these people here some credit, at least they are original, more than I can say for this mormon moron. 🙄

My question to Glenn Beck and the rest of these so-called right-wing patriots is this: Where exactly were you, when the Bush Administration was basically doing the same stuff and when they were failing the American people —– when 9/11 happened? I’ll tell you where, you were damned cheerleading the son-of-a-bitch, that’s what!

So, to Beck and rest; please, give it a damned break, your racist partisan witch hunt makes the right look like a bunch of damned idiots. Not that you or your friends really need any help in that department.

Video: Different Opinions on Boston Terror Attack

Perhaps I was a bit premature on Glenn Beck.

First from the “Token Libertarian Girl”.

The second video is quite interesting; he goes all in, accusing the FBI of a massive coverup.

The video: Via Mark Realmz on Twitter:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=WIEWUYebrrY

Personally, I really do not agree with the second video, the man is jumping to conclusions. Kinda like I might have done with this blog entry here —- maybe.

Either way, it is interesting to see that Americans are waking up to the fact that our Government is becoming more and more of police state everyday. I just hope that there is something to the accusation of the second video and of Glenn Beck’s accusation. Because the last thing we need, as a movement of patriots; is to be discredited.
