The Washington Independent » Huckabee in St. Louis: Get America Out of the U.N.

I don't agree with everything Mike Huckabee says, but I agree with this from St. Louis...

ST. LOUIS — Former Gov. Mike Huckabee (R-Ark.), speaking to a very friendly dinner crowd at the “How To Take Back America” conference, said that he’d “nearly had an Elvis moment” watching this week’s United Nations general assembly sessions and spoke about pulling out of the world organization altogether.

“It’s time to get a jackhammer and to simply chip off that part of New York City,” said Huckabee, “and let it float into the East River, never to be seen again!” That remark got him a standing ovation, and Huckabee went on to suggest de-funding the U.N. entirely.
“It’s time to say enough of the American taxpayer’s dollar being spent on something that may have been a noble idea, but has become a disgrace!” said Huckabee. “It has become the international equivalent of ACORN and it’s time to say enough!”

Huckabee continued, suggesting that the U.N. be handed over to one of the nations that attacked America. “Let’s end the diplomatic excesses that these people enjoy,” he said. “Let any country that is willing to spend the money that the United States is hosting–let them have it. Give it to the Saudis and let these diplomats suck the sand out of the Saudi desert for a few summers and see if that’s where they’d like to go, and make their ridiculous speeches.”

I just wonder if we can make the U.N. take our president with them when they leave.

Mich. woman warned to get license for babysitting kids until school bus arrives - On Deadline - USATODAY.com

We are told that government does many things "for the children." Well, how does this fit in...

A Michigan woman who lives in front of a school bus stop says the state is threatening her with fines and possibly jail time for babysitting her neighbors' kids until the bus comes, WZZM reports.

Lisa Snyder of Middleville, Mich., says she takes no money for watching the three children for 15-40 minutes each day so that the neighbors can get to work on time.

Here is the excuse the bureaucrat at DHS uses for the action...

A DHS spokesperson tells the station that it has no choice but to comply with state law, which is designed to protect Michigan children.

We have to protect kids from a nice lady who wants to help her neighbors? Only in government can this be logical.

Saturday Mail Service Getting the Sack - Kiplinger.com

Let's see if I have this straight. We can't deliver the mail in a cost efficient manner, but we can deliver health care?

There’ll be no more Saturday delivery of mail, come 2011 or so. The U.S. Postal Service is serious about cutting back to a Monday to Friday schedule -- a plan that the USPS figures will save the cash-strapped agency at least $3 billion a year.

Congress will grudgingly go along, though not till after the 2010 elections. Lawmakers on both sides of the political aisle are reluctantly coming to the conclusion that USPS cost cutting and much higher postal rates can’t bail the service out of the deepening hole it’s in. They know that rate hikes will only accelerate the inexorable erosion of mail volume.

Let's look at the bright side. Maybe you bills will start coming a little later.

Back on the Wagon?

OK, it happened today. I went down to do my show as always. But things weren't right. The board was so messed up again, I just couldn't even function.

I love to take calls. Why? Because, even I get tired of hearing my own voice. (That is also why I have been playing so much audio over the past few weeks.) I want to hear your views, get your take. That is also why I love Twitter and Facebook so much. But that is another story.

So, I got frustrated, and decided to call it a day early. Now I have a decision to make. Do we struggle to work through the "technical" issues there, or do we try to find other ways of communicating.

I have been neglecting this blog for months, because I left recovery and went back to doing a daily show. Maybe I should just go back to using this blog, and the social networks. Maybe I should find another way to broadcast an audio show. Maybe I should just concentrate on building the barbecue business.

This will take some prayer. And advice from friends like you won't hurt, either. Whatever happens, I will treasure the friendships this show has led to. So, please keep in touch.

My Race is the Best Race - Associated Content

We have all this race tension being caused by the bigoted Democrats in American. It is getting on my nerves all this tiptoeing around the subject that we are doing. I will admit it, MY RACE IS THE BEST RACE. Yep I said it and now I will make my case and prove my point.

We carved out a once wonderful country from the wilderness that was America. Hell before that we turned Europe into a civilized continent. My race invented writing and ways to teach it. We invented schools and made them better and better until the liberals got control and started their brainwashing campaign.

I love this blog post. Make sure you read the whole thing before making a judgement.

CNSNews.com - HHS Secretary Announces Additional $350 Million for States to Combat Swine Flu, Which Is ‘No More Lethal Than Seasonal Flu’

(CNSNews.com) – Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius recently announced that an additional $350 million is available to help states and territories prepare for the 2009 flu season – including swine flu, which Sebelius described as “no more lethal than the seasonal flu.”

“With flu season around the corner, we must remain vigilant and do all we can to prepare our nation and protect public health,” said Sebelius. “These grants will give states valuable resources to step up their flu preparedness efforts.”

Here's what I wrote in last year's column titled "Global Warming Rope-a-Dope" (12/24/2008): "Once laws are written, they are very difficult, if not impossible, to repeal. If a time would ever come when the permafrost returns to northern U.S., as far south as New Jersey as it once did, it's not inconceivable that Congress, caught in the grip of the global warming zealots, would keep all the laws on the books they wrote in the name of fighting global warming. Personally, I would not put it past them to write more." On June 28, 2009, the House of Representatives, by a narrow margin (219-212), passed the Waxman-Markey bill. The so-called "cap and trade" bill has been sold as a system for cutting greenhouse gas emissions in the struggle against global warming. There's a full-court press on the U.S. Senate to pass its version of "cap and trade."

America is being scammed by its own government.
