Sheriff Mike Scott Beats the Hatch Act Rap

The Hatch act is intended to prevent public officials from becoming involved in elections.

A Florida sheriff, Mike Scott, was charged with violating this act when he, dressed in his Sheriffs Chief uniform, spoke to 9,000 people at a Republican rally for Sarah Palin. He brought up Barack Hussein Obama with an emphasis on Hussein hoping to invoke a tie to terrorism and fear.

Erica Hamrick, deputy chief of the Hatch Act Unit said that The U.S office of Special Counsel Says that Scott did violate the Hatch Act but closed the case when she thought the federal board that rules on these matters may not rule in the Special Counsels favor.

The Florida Commission of Ethics could have investigated Scott for corruptly using his office for gain. They choose not to investigate the complaints.

Some also are questioning whether Scott violated the county code of ethics. The statute says no county government employees are allowed to wear any uniform or clothing that would identify them as such while engaging in a political campaign not sponsored by the county, even if they are off-duty. But the sheriff, according to Sheriff's spokesman Sgt. Larry King, is not considered an employee of the county — he is an elected official. His budget (Pay check) is approved by the county, but he answers to the governor and to his constituents.

Sheriff Scott said "This official closure is my second vindication.....The first was on Inauguration Day when our president put his hand on the bible and took the oath with the exact same name I mentioned in my speech."

Sheriff Scott said this 6 days later about an officer he fired. "It is always regrettable to part company with members on unfavorable terms; however, our standards remain high and our tolerance for wrongdoing low." The officer was fired for downloading porn on his office computer, not illegal but is against sheriff office policies. What Scott did is also wrong, legaly wrong, but the Sheriff gets away with it.

WTF! Scott, It must be nice to be a Republican in a Republican county in a Republican state. Double standards X 3.

Pay As You Drive Car Insurance

WTF! I have never had an accident or a moving violation yet I pay twice as much a year for car insurance than my car cost me!

You are required by law to carry a minimum amount of coverage if you own and drive a car, so why pay for car insurance that you do not use? Canada, Europe, and Japan and 35 states (of course not the one I live in) offer some form of car insurance based on the millage driven.

By plugging a GPS device into your vehicle, your millage information is tracked and transmitted to your insurance provider. After tallying this information the insurance company is offers discounts to drivers who use this pay as you go program. Some critics find the act of tracking where and when you are driving an invasion of privacy. (They have something to hide?) I would tend to believe that low mileage drivers are willing to give up this information for the incentive to save money.

The low millage driver and owners of secondary cars would pay much less than a driver who commutes back and forth to work daily. Since the rate is adjusted lower for older drivers, clean driving records and time of day, the savings on the yearly premium can be almost half of what the driver is paying at the present time.

Drives under this plan will have an incentive to look for ways to cut their millage which in turn will cut oil usage and pollution.

Whats so hard to understand about pay as you go car insurance? This is just like using a cell phone that charges only for the time used.

Is Ron Christ Really Steve Urkle?

Republicans really will use any person they can find to play the non-Caucasian mouthpiece the Republican party. So up to bat is a relic from the last Bush administration, Ron Christie, author of the 2006 memoir Black in the White House, has become one of the foremost apologists for both the Bush legacy and Dick Cheney.

When he campaigned for McCain he managed to come out as the voice of dysfunctional reasoning. All I see is someone that will create controversy while walking and talking as he is told to.

Christie insinuates that Cheney's role as President of the Senate somehow outweighs the job of VP and that the only reason Cheney is refusing to comply with the law is to insure the solvency of the Office of the Vice President. WTF? I did not know there were plans to downsize the Vice Presidents office, must be the economy.

As a frequent commentator on current political events, he has appeared as a political/legal analyst on Hannity & Colmes, The O'Reilly Factor, Fox and Friends, Hardball with Chris Matthews, Lou Dobbs Tonight, The Tavis Smiley Show, and Fox News Sunday. Looks like a well balanced slice of the right wingnuts.

I can't believe anything this man has to say.

Steve Urkle on the other hand, said, "Got any cheese?"

Now that is someone I can believe.

California Fruitcake Trees and Vegitable Trees

I found this clip on College Humor

You can visit the link above but just for you, I have taken the time to transcribe her genius for your edification.

"You know I was talking to my friend Desdemona the other day she runs this space station and bake shop down near Boomtown. She told me that human beings are flawed individuals. The cosmic bakers took us out of the oven a little too early. And that's the reason we're as crazy as we are and I believe it."

"Well the crops are…. growing very well and…. Uhh…. they are organic and some have pesticides and I think we should make a perfect pesticide for the crops but…ah… is good for people and is healthy and keeps the crops preserved too because we need the food because it is food and stuff. Organic food is good also…

Uh… the businesses downtown really need to lower their rent because if the rent was lower those people would really have their own businesses. They have enough stuff. They are very good at making things. They are like experts, they are really good. And we can really be a community and make the things and… uhhh…. Uhhh… sell them in our stores and I really believe that it can be a California thing that it…it can really work out because… uhhh… we can be rich and…..cotton…. and mining metals…… and silk worms….. and we could make things…. we can make things….cars. The machine…. can make it for us and we can have the community and the city…and San Fransisco… and we can make things and put them in the stores.

On the East coast they have slaves and they believe in slavery and made in China but…. on the west coast…the new west coast…we don’t believe in that. We believe in the union and that’s what we are. But in the Bush administration…which is really good….uhhh….he has government funding for small business owners.

You can grow every type of fruit and vegetable that you want. That’s how they do it. They have fruit trees and vegetable trees. That’s where fruits and vegetables come from. You freeze the fruits and vegetables…. it will last forever. You can put…. You know…. broccoli and strawberries in the freezer. It will last forever. If you don’t….it…. you know….it might go bad in a while….but………

People!…we live in California…this is our home…this is where we live. Growing food is so good for the people because it is free. All you have to do is pay the farmers and pay for the land….but why do we have to pay for the land?....it’s free.…it’s new land you know….Do we have to pay for the land? Do you have to pay rent?....do you have to pay?.... The foods free…so…. we should just sell it at the farmers market."

"Fruitcakes in the kitchen
Fruitcakes on the street
Struttin' naked through the crosswalk
In the middle of the week
Half-baked cookies in the oven
Half-baked people on the bus
There's a little bit of fruitcake left in everyone of us "

WTF!!!!!!!!

I am not picking on people from California, just the really idiotic people like this cretin and her one friend applauding at the end of her speech.

Darwin must be rolling in his grave. Back in the day, there was natural selection, survival of the fittest. Now, way too many people that would have expired before they had reached breeding age, are baring brain dead children like this who, in turn, will breed a crop of fruitcakes of their own, descent with modification Darwin called it.

When I was growing up, people like her would have been called "Tards" and kept in special Ed. class. Now they run amok among us as Right Wingnuts and your boss.

"That's right, you too. Yeah those crumbs are spread all around this universe. I've seen fruitcakes. I saw this guy in Santa Monica rollerskate naked through the crosswalk. Down in New Orleans in the French market there are fruitcakes like you cannot believe. New York, forget it. Fruitcake city. Down island, we've got fruitcakes. Spread them crumbs around. That's right, we want 'em around. Keep bakin' baby. Keep bakin'." Fruitcakes by Jimmy Buffett

Is it a Mercedes UTE? Is it a Ford Tempo Pickup?

A: To see if a custom vehicle could be built in the driveway using hand tools and very little money.

Q: What tools did you use?

A: A borrowed reciprocal saw, a hand held grinder a saber saw, circular saw and a drill and hand tools found around the home.

Q: How long did it take you to build?

A: Around six months of work in my spare time.

The Birthers Hawaii Obama Conspiracy

Hawaii is not a state in the union of the United States of America. I am sure one of you birthers holds the true secret and special information to prove this.

You say Obama has no birth certificate. Please see the picture at the top of the page. Do you have one?

The birth certificate is a forgery except that Obama's birth certificate was validated by the Hawaii Department of Health.

Hawaii's two major newspapers, the Honolulu Advertiser and the Star Bulletin both report birth announcements of August 4, 1961 for Bark Obama. Maybe Obama can time travel?

Obama was smuggled into America by Islamic terrorists. Their master plan is to have a Muslim president who will destroy America from within. Gag me with a spoon.

WTF, do you think that Obama's parents smuggled him into Hawaii, faked a non existent birth certificate and got his birth announcement published because they knew that he would need this when he becomes president? Don't you think that is this was true that Clinton or McCain would have used this information?

The inconvenient truth is: Your kind lost the election!!!!

The world has to and is moving on without you while you lay their with your head stuck in pond muck.

No matter how much factual information Birthers are presented with, they have a mental illness, just as other conspiracy theorist have. All your strange beliefs spur people away from the Republican party, helping to destroying it in the process.

Thank you one and all for proving Darwin wrong. Not everyone has the ability to evolves.

Man Catches Fire After Being Tasered

The story doesn't match what the storyline promises, simply that, a man catches on fire because he is tased. The story line sounds impressive but as in many news report, the facts or the story lines are embellished.

"Western Australia police said they were responding to a complaint at a house when Mitchell ran outside carrying a cigarette lighter and a large plastic bottle containing what they believe was fuel. When he refused to stop running toward them, one officer Tasered him, police said in a statement.

The man was immediately engulfed in flames. The officer threw him to the ground and smothered the blaze with his hands, the statement said. Mitchell was charged with assault to prevent arrest and possession of a sniffing substance." KRISTEN GELINEAU, AP

Fire is a triangle. You need Fuel + Oxygen+ Heat. So a man covered in gasoline (Fuel) in a oxygen atmosphere (Oxygen) gets tased (Heat) what do you expect besides a roasted marshmallow? I see embellishment in the news all the time. News report: "Cars were totally submerged on the road" as the background pictures show cars driving through the water up to the hub caps. One loan car that had been driven into a ditch had water to the hood. Either the story was embellished or the news editor does not know that submerged means totally underwater?

WTF? Are we being constantly lied too or are reporters that stupid?

"Don't taze me bro!"
