MoveOn.org Admits We Are Winning the Energy Debate
August 7th, 2008 MeAbout a month or so again I posted a plug for the American Solutions initiative.. Drill Here. Drill Now. Pay Less. Yesterday I received an email from Dave Ryan, President of American Solutions, that was sent out to all the supporters of the campaign….
Dear Sammy,
I want to share some really exciting news with you. As you know, poll after poll shows that we are winning the argument about how to lower gas and diesel prices and develop more American energy now.
But the even bigger news is that the anti-energy elites are desperately worried. They are not only criticizing us, but they are admitting that they are losing the argument.
And friends, that’s big. In fact, considering the source, that’s huge.
Recently, liberal group MoveOn.org in an email to their supporters sounded dejected. They wrote “Here’s the truth: Right now, progressives are losing this argument.”
That can mean only one thing - WE ARE WINNING THIS ARGUMENT!
In the energy debate, common sense is winning and it’s got the anti-energy elites rattled because they offer no solutions to lowering gas and diesel prices.
American Solutions, on the other hand, has taken a bold stand and has been leading the “Drill Here, Drill Now, Pay Less” movement that has energized millions of Americans around a positive solution. Because of your help and the help of more than a million others, today an overwhelming majority of Americans support opening up new areas for exploration and drilling of American oil and gas, including offshore.
Even though MoveOn.org admits we are winning, they won’t quit, and there is still more work to be done.
Congress has left for a 5-week vacation without doing anything to address the soaring cost of gas and diesel. This inaction is unacceptable to the American people, many of whom can’t afford a vacation this year.
Earlier today, American Solutions held a press conference with Speaker Gingrich and Members of Congress still in Washington working to pass an energy bill. Our message to them was simple: On behalf of the 1.4 million Americans who have signed the “Drill Here, Drill Now, Pay Less” petition, it’s time for Congress to take immediate action to lower gas and diesel prices. Here’s a video from the event:
Now more than ever, we need your help to keep the pressure on Congress. You can help by forwarding this email to 5 of your friends, telling them we are winning the argument, and urging them to sign the “Drill Here, Drill Now, Pay Less” petition.
If we get 2 million petition signatures we will make a big impact at both the Democratic and Republican conventions.
Thank you for all you are doing - we’re really making a difference.
Sincerely,
Dave Ryan
President

Your Children Should Learn Spanish
July 18th, 2008 MeThis guy has some audacity! Talking down about an English language law, and saying our kids should be learning Spanish?
First off Mr. Obama, the national language if you hadn’t noticed.. is English you jerk. Yes their should be a law requiring immigrants to learn and communicate in our national language.
And you say my children should have to learn Spanish? Why? Because our country is overrun by illegal immigrants, because idiot politicians like yourself won’t do a dam thing about it?
I’d love for my child to learn several languages. In fact we’ve already started by teaching our children sign language. Please enlighten me sir how the hell are our children supposed to learn a second or third language when you politicians keep reducing education funding. Our schools can barely teach our children proper English for cryin’ out loud.
Nobel Peace Prize Runner Up
July 16th, 2008 MeMay 12 marked the death of a 98 year old lady named Irena.
During WWII, Irena, got permission to work in the Warsaw Ghetto, as a Plumbing/Sewer specialist. She had an ulterior motive…
She KNEW what the Nazi’s plans were for the Jews, (being German). Irena smuggled infants out in the bottom of her tool box she carried, and she carried in the back of her truck a Burlap sack, (for larger kids).
She also had a dog in the back, that she trained to bark when the Nazi soldiers let her in, and out of the ghetto. The soldiers of course wanted nothing to do with the dog, and the barking covered the kids/infants noises.
During her time and course of doing this, she managed to smuggle out and save 2500 kids/infants. She was caught, and the Nazi’s broke both her legs, and arms, and beat her severely.
Irena kept a record of the names of all the kids she smuggled out, and kept them in a glass jar, buried under a tree in her back yard. After the war, she tried to locate any parents that may have survived it, and reunited the family. Most of course had been gassed.
Those kids she helped got placed into foster family homes, or adopted. Last year Irena was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize….
She LOST. Al Gore won, for doing a slide show on Global Warming.
Appalling!
How to tell you’re married
July 7th, 2008 Me
Three women, one engaged, one married and one a mistress, are chatting about their relationships and decided to amaze their men. That night all
three wore black leather bras, stiletto heels and a mask over their eyes. After a few days they meet up for lunch.
The engaged woman: ‘The other night when my boyfriend came over he found me with a black leather bodice, tall stilettos and a mask. He saw me and said, ‘You are the woman of my life. I love you.’ Then we made love all night long.’
The mistress: ‘Me too! The other night I met my lover at his office and I was wearing the leather bodice, heels, mask over my eyes and a raincoat. Then I opened the raincoat he didn’t say a word, but we had wild sex all night.’
The married woman: ‘I sent the kids to stay at my mother’s house for the night. When my husband came home I was wearing the leather bodice, black stockings, stilettos and a mask over my eye s. As soon as he came in the door and saw me he said, ‘What’s for dinner Batman?”
Amish Elevator
June 25th, 2008 MeAn Amish boy and his father were visiting a mall. They were amazed by almost everything they saw, but especially by two shiny, silver walls that could move apart and then slide back together again….
The boy asked, “What is this, Father?” The father (never having seen an elevator) responded “Son, I have never seen anything like this in my life, I don’t kn ow what it is.”
While the boy and his father were watching with amazement, a fat old lady in a wheel chair rolled up to the moving walls and pressed a button. The walls
opened and the lady rolled between them into a small room. The walls closed and the boy and his father watched the small circular numbers above the
walls light up sequentially. They continued to watch until it reached the last number and then the numbers began to light in the reverse order.
Finally the walls opened up again and a gorgeous, voluptuous 24 year old blonde woman stepped out. The father, not taking his eyes off the young
woman, said quietly to his son … “Go get your mother.”

Alternative Discipline Method to Spanking
June 9th, 2008 MeMost of Australia’s modern parents think it improper to spank children. The other day I was talking to one of my colleagues about methods used to discipline children.
We talked about “time outs”, grounding, holding back “rewards” until the child displayed desired behavior etc. One of the things we discussed was the act of spanking and my friend explained that no, he does not spank any of his children.
He explained that what he does is to take the misbehaving child out for a ride in the car and talk. He said that usually this works and that the child calms down fairly quickly and really doesn’t take too much time.
By removing the child, in this case his son, from the immediate situation and providing a change of scenery, the child is allowed to focus on something different. Once the child has the opportunity to change perspective, things get better quickly and the child has better understanding of his place within the family and begins to understand the family’s concept of acceptable behavior.
He kindly shared a picture of the process which I share with you now.
Danish View of Our Upcoming Elections
June 5th, 2008 MeNO MATTER WHO YOU WANT TO WIN IN NOVEMBER, I THOUGHT YOU’D ENJOY A DANISH VIEW OF OUR UPCOMING ELECTION.
A journalist in Denmark has a pretty clear grasp of the political situation here in America. He doesn’t understand what all the fuss is about over here. His question basically boils down to this:
‘We in Denmark cannot figure out why you are even bothering to hold an election in the US. On one side, you have a bitch who is a lawyer, married to a lawyer, running against a lawyer, who is married to a bitch, who is a lawyer.
On the other side, you have a war hero, married to a good looking woman with big boobs, who owns a beer distributorship.
Is there really a contest here?
