Weekly Donation Appeal……

Hi Gang,

Here’s the part of being a full time Blogger, that I absolutely hate.

Asking for money….. 🙄

Yes, I do this full time. As I mentioned previously in another entry, I am a full time, freelance writer and Blogger. I write for a living, it is what I enjoy.

I won’t get into all the reasons why I do not have a day job. But I do enjoy this and I’d like to get paid to do it.

Please Give. Even if it’s $5 or $10 every little helps. For the record, I haven’t gotten any more than around $200.00 from here.

You say you cannot give? Well, there’s something that you can do, click my ads. I’ve just added a new Ad Service, one that pays, and pay decent, it’s a pay per display service and it’s already generating revenue. It’s not a $100 a minute, but it’s a little income. Some pay per click, some pay me when you buy something. (Please Note: I don’t get paid when you click on GunsAmerica’s Banner, that’s there for information and for a service…

Also, take a look at the banners under “My Friends” and “More of my Friends” sections, these are causes that feel matter, please, click on them and show your support.

Again, I don’t consider this begging, I only do it once a week! 😉

Also, I, again, would like to THANK EVERYONE who answered the call for help, when I was still over on Blogger. I also thank the young man, who came to my rescue with a awesome offer of hosting for an excellent deal. Which I could not have beaten, had I tried. I also thank Chris Muir of Day by Day for bringing my situation to the attention of his readers, you’re awesome Chris!

Anyhow, enough of the ass kissing. 😉 😛 😆 😀

Thanks for reading and thanks for the continued readership.

-Paleo Pat

Call me old fashioned….but

This is why I cannot get excited about John McCain.

I mean the Republican party is supposed to be the party of morals. But yet, they’ve elected a divorced and remarried man? What kind of message does that sent to young people or worse yet, kids?

A News Article that Goerge W. Bush and Staff need to read..

This is serious Business and Bush had better read this. This here is why we cannot afford to go to war with Iran.

The Story: OPEC warns against military conflict with Iran (via International Herald Tribune)

The head of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries warned Thursday that oil prices would see an “unlimited” increase in the case of a military conflict involving Iran, because the group’s members would be unable to make up the lost production.

“We really cannot replace Iran’s production – it’s not feasible to replace it,” Abdalla Salem El-Badri, the OPEC secretary general, said during an interview.

Iran, the second-largest producing country in OPEC, after Saudi Arabia, produces about 4 million barrels of oil a day out of the daily worldwide production of close to 87 million barrels. The country has been locked in a lengthy dispute with Western countries over its nuclear ambitions.

In recent weeks, the price of oil has risen higher on speculation that Israel could be preparing to attack Iranian nuclear facilities. The saber-rattling intensified this week with missile tests by Iran. That has further shaken oil markets because of concerns that any conflict with Iran could disrupt oil shipments from the Gulf region.

“The prices would go unlimited,” Badri said during the interview, referring to the effect of a military conflict. “I can’t give you a number.”

I highly recommend that everyone, of all political stripes go read this article. This is why we cannot go to war with Iran. Not because of our Military, but rather because it would kill us, even worse than it is now, at the gas pump.

We just cannot afford, I cannot afford, the Nation cannot afford another war with another country.

Speaking of Chimpy and G8

He pulls this stupid stuff too:

The American leader, who has been condemned throughout his presidency for failing to tackle climate change, ended a private meeting with the words: “Goodbye from the world’s biggest polluter.”

He then punched the air while grinning widely, as the rest of those present including Gordon Brown and Nicolas Sarkozy looked on in shock.

and of course:

The White House apologised for what it called “sloppy work” and said an official had simply lifted the characterisation from the internet without reading it.

Man, I hope the G.O.P. learned their lesson in electing an idiot like him. 🙄

Someone needs to show Bush a Map

Like this: (H/T to Matthew Yglesias)

I mean, how idiotic:

“Amigo! Amigo!” Mr. Bush called out cheerily in Spanish when he spotted the Italian prime minister. “How you doing, Silvio? Good to see you!” Later, the president wondered about his former Russian counterpart, Vladimir V. Putin. “Did Putin come to see you since I saw you?” he asked Mr. Berlusconi. (He had not.)

🙄 and they wonder why we’re not liked in other parts of the world.

Get well soon, Ed.

I guess Ed’s feeling a bit under the weather….

Unfortunately, I’ve suddenly taken a little ill today, and will have to cancel today’s show. For those of you who don’t know, I’ve been recently diagnosed with Type II diabetes and am working through a medication regimen to address high blood sugars. While things get adjusted, it plays some tricks on the body — and to be honest, I’m not sure this is a medication issue or just plain old stomach flu, so we’ll see.Hot Air » Blog Archive » The Ed Morrissey Show: canceled for today

Hang in there, Ed. That Diabetes ain’t nothing to be messing around with. Take care of that First. That Blog will be there for a long time, You won’t be, if you aren’t really careful man.

I mean that man. Get Well, THEN BLOG!

On FISA

There is a great deal of outrage on the left and amongst many Constitutionalists and some Libertarians about this FISA bill being passed.

The way I look at it is, if Obama wins, he will go after those who broke the law.

I think that everyone needs to take a step back and look at the big picture here. If we stop one terrorist from attacking America, it will be worth it. However, I am fully aware of the corruption of this imperialistic Neo-Conservative Presidential Administration.

I take comfort in knowing that if Obama does win, as much as I despise his Politics, I believe there will be prosecutions handed out.

T. Boone Pickens does an excellent Op-Ed…

I this is about the best thing I’ve seen in the WSJ in a long while…

My Plan to Escape the Grip of Foreign Oil – WSJ.com

One of the benefits of being around a long time is that you get to know a lot about certain things. I’m 80 years old and I’ve been an oilman for almost 60 years. I’ve drilled more dry holes and also found more oil than just about anyone in the industry. With all my experience, I’ve never been as worried about our energy security as I am now. Like many of us, I ignored what was happening. Now our country faces what I believe is the most serious situation since World War II.

In fact, here’s the video from the Pickens website:

An excellent plan, also, let’s close that Enron Loophole as well. That would really help as well. I think that if we would stop making this issue a Political wedge and more of a matter of personal importance, we could get much more done.

T. Boone Picken’s Website is here.

Let’s just hope the Democrats and Republicans take this issue seriously and not like a Political Wedge.

Iran tests thier missiles again… Obama and McCain React

(H/T Hot Air)

Via Reuters:

Iran test-fired nine missiles on Wednesday and warned the United States and Israel it was ready to retaliate for any attack over its disputed nuclear projects.

Washington, which says Iran seeks atomic bombs, told Tehran to halt further tests. Iran, the world’s fourth largest oil producer, says its nuclear program is only for electricity.

Iran’s missile tests rattled oil markets, helping crude prices to rebound about $2 a barrel after recent falls.

Speculation that Israel could bomb Iran has mounted since a big Israeli air drill last month. U.S. leaders have not ruled out military options if diplomacy fails to end the nuclear row.

Revolutionary Guards air force commander Hossein Salami said in televised comments that thousands of missiles were ready to be fired at “pre-determined targets.” Missiles were shown soaring from desert launchpads, leaving long vapor trails.

“We warn the enemies who intend to threaten us with military exercises and empty psychological operations that our hand will always be on the trigger and our missiles will always be ready to launch,” he said, according to ISNA news agency.

And Obama’s Response?

Video:

His typical stammering response of we have to appease them.

McCain’s Response?:

Iran’s most recent missile tests demonstrate again the dangers it poses to its neighbors and to the wider region, especially Israel. Ballistic missile testing coupled with Iran’s continued refusal to cease its nuclear activities should unite the international community in efforts to counter Iran’s dangerous ambitions. Iran’s missile tests also demonstrate the need for effective missile defense now and in the future, and this includes missile defense in Europe as is planned with the Czech Republic and Poland. Working with our European and regional allies is the best way to meet the threat posed by Iran, not unilateral concessions that undermine multilateral diplomacy.

Who would you want to vote for? A commie liberal who wants to make nice with Iranians who want to see Israel wiped off the map or someone who will defend Israel till the death, like John McCain?

This is just further proof, that B. Hussein Obama is not ready to lead on day one. Period, End of story, bring another shoe shine boy around to try and run for President, cause this one ain’t even ready.

John McCain Said WHAT?!?!?

Ol’ Juan McSame just keeps stepping in it… up to his ears, no less.

From the Washington Post’s “The Trail”:

Sen. John McCain hasn’t had good luck joking about Iran. But he tried it again Tuesday.

Responding to a question about a survey that shows increased exports to
Iran, mainly from cigarettes, McCain said, “Maybe thats a way of killing them.”

He quickly caught himself, saying “I meant that as a joke” as his wife, Cindy, poked him in the back.

Oh Yeah, that’s real nice way to appeal to the centrists who are sizing you up against Obama, you knucklehead.

Michelle Malkin hyperventilates a bit:

I can hear it coming already: faux outrage, MSM feeding frenzy, Worst Person in the World designation, and a 24-hour cycle of cable TV teeth-gnashing over McCain’s off-handed joke about cigarette exports to Iran.

Nope, not this week, Michelle. Keith’s on vacation. At best, Rachel Maddow, who’s subbing for Olbermann this week, will make it a part of the show. Keith’s subs usually do not usually perform the Worst Person in the World bits. Honestly? I think this will be a blip on the radar, really, the left is still frothing at the mouth over Obama’s lurch to the center, and the right, his “supposed” flip flops, or as he calls them, the things that were his positions all along and nobody was paying attention. 😀

But I will say this, McCain really, really, really, needs to work on his humor. between this and that silly “That’s not change you can believe in” along with that laugh, that made him sound like a mental patient. Along that terrible green background. Yeeesh… No wonder he got a new bunch of people to help him out, the previous staff was making him look like an idiot.

……But then again, we are talking about Juan McCain.
