A quick few.

This is something every state should be doing. This makes me want to move to Texas.

So it has come out that President Obama's dog was a purebred dog, from a private breeder. Why would this be considered news-worthy? Simple. Obama said he was going to get a rescued dog. What he ended up getting was a dog from the same breeder Senator Kennedy got his dog from. This breeder must have been planning for this. The name of the litter the dog was hand-selected from was the "hope and change" litter. The white house claims this was a rescue dog because it was given back to the breeder after six months. What they don't tell you is the dog spent one of those six months at the Kennedy's ranch being trained for the White House. One might even go so far as to say the person that bought the dog in the first place never intended to keep, so that the Obama's could call it a "rescued" dog. In my opinion, the Obamas never intended to rescue a dog from a pound in the first place. The full story is here:

I do want to give the president credit where it is due. After taking far too long to make the decision, the White House FINALLY approved the use of lethal force to free Captain Phillips from the Somali pirates. But what took him so long? If he was excercising caution, why couldn't he have done that with these massive spending bills he was so eager to bully through congress?

Finally, I'll be attending one of the many Tax Day Tea Party Protests which are scheduled tomorrow, April 15th, all over the country. I will be in Trenton, NJ. In fact, I will be singing several songs during the protest, including our National Anthem. I encourage you all to get out and let your voice be heard. For info on your local Tea Party go to taxdayteaparty.com.

  1. Hope today was great, Patrick! I watched it on Fox News. I'm proud of so many people for going out there and taking a stand. And about the Somali pirates, never fear, Hilary said we're gonna go after those pirates' assets and freeze them. Oooh, watch out, Hilary's going after their assets. Give me a break...

  2. Maybe Hilary meant to say we're going after their asses! As in "Stop it, you nasty pirates, or I'll have to freeze your asses!" Although I guess global warming might make that difficult.

  3. The Pirates "Assets" happen to be Ransomes paid to them by other countries who, by paying them, have only perpetuated this ridiculous problem of piracy. If they didn't pay, there would be no piracy. Despite Obama and Hillary, America continues to display Bravery in the face of Evil, and is still setting an example for the world through the actions of it's citizens. I only wish our president would grow a spine.
