A Country Founded by Geniuses but Run by Idiots

by Jeff Foxworthy:

If you can get arrested for hunting or fishing without a license, but not for entering and remaining in the country illegally — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

If you have to get your parents’ permission to go on a field trip or to take an aspirin in school, but not to get an abortion — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

If you MUST show your identification to board an airplane, cash a check, buy liquor, or check out a library book and rent a video, but not to vote for who runs the government — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots. 

If the government wants to prevent stable, law-abiding citizens from owning gun magazines that hold more than ten rounds, but gives twenty F-16 fighter jets to the crazy new leaders in Egypt — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

If, in the nation’s largest city, you can buy two 16-ounce sodas, but not one 24-ounce soda, because 24-ounces of a sugary drink might make you fat — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

If an 80-year-old woman or a three-year-old girl who is confined to a wheelchair can be strip-searched by the TSA at the airport, but a woman in a burka or a hijab is only subject to having her neck and head searched — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

If your government believes that the best way to eradicate trillions of dollars of debt is to spend trillions more — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots. 

If a seven-year-old boy can be thrown out of school for saying his teacher is “cute,” but hosting a sexual exploration or diversity class in grade school is perfectly acceptable — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

If hard work and success are met with higher taxes and more government regulation and intrusion, while not working is rewarded with Food Stamps, WIC checks, Medicaid benefits, subsidized housing, and free cell phones — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

If the government’s plan for getting people back to work is to provide incentives for not working, by granting 99 weeks of unemployment checks, without any requirement to prove that gainful employment was diligently sought, but couldn’t be found — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

If you pay your mortgage faithfully, denying yourself the newest big-screen TV, while your neighbor buys iPhones, time shares, a wall-sized do-it-all plasma screen TV and new cars, and the government forgives his debt when he defaults on his mortgage — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

If being stripped of your Constitutional right to defend yourself makes you more “safe” according to the government — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

What a country!

How about we give God a reason to continue blessing America!

Wii Spy?

T-Rex Burger Extinct

T-Rex Burger - Now Extinct.

I see that the United States is no longer the most obese country on the planet. That distinction now belongs to Mexico!

This story does not come to us from south of the border, instead, we thank a restaurant in Canada for giving us the T-Rex Burger. This entree was inspired by an ad which was featured in Sports Illustrated, nine years ago. The Wendy's in Brandon, Manitoba, Canada was receiving requests for the 9 patty burger. They added it to their menu until the home office found out about it. The T-Rex burger sold for $21.99 and contained 3,000 calories, 200 grams of fat and 6,000 grams of sodium. That's enough salt to last four days for the average adult!

Canada obviously does not enjoy the protection that we enjoy in the USA which is provided for us by Mayor Bloomberg and Mrs. Obama!

There's been a lot of nasty stuff in the news, lately. I can't change that. What I would like to do is to shift the focus, for a moment, from the inhumane, unfair and dangerous world, to a vision of beauty. Simmy Singh is truly some of God's best work! She is a model/actress from London, England.

I wish I knew more about her, but I don't. I don't know what her favorite food is, what she looks for in a man, her political or religious views, whether her ancestors were from India or Indiana, or what radio station she listens to.

There are times when certain things are not important.

A Few Words From Charlie Daniels.

Charlie Daniels

Charlie Daniels is a Grammy Award winning performer. Many of us are old enough to remember "The Devil Went Down To Georgia" and "Uneasy Rider." Click the titles to visit YouTube and listen to the songs.

Charlie Daniels is more than a celebrity and singer of novelty songs. We, at the blog, have chosen a recent article by Mr. Daniels, to be featured. I don't do this often, but here it is, unedited and in its entirety.

The Press and Paula Deen. I think that if anything exemplifies the overt prejudice and determination of the American media to report only the news that suits their social and political interests and concept of what does and does not fit their agenda, it's the totally overblown coverage of something Paula Deen said 20 years ago, and some party she planned that she wanted to resemble a plantation scene featuring black male waiters in period dress. If Hollywood plans a movie featuring black waiters in a plantation scene or portray women as prostitutes or cast minorities in caricature roles does the media get upset and start calling the movie moguls racists? Is there any grown person who could truthfully declare under oath that they have never uttered something that someone might find personally offensive? "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone." Do the twenty-year-old words of a lady with a television cooking show trump the lie an Attorney General told Congress, or officials at the IRS usurping the rights of the American public and pleading the fifth amendment when confronted about it or the hiding of the facts surrounding the murder of four Americans at a Consulate in Libya or the incredibly shabby image of a president taking a one hundred million dollar vacation in this economy while closing down tours of the White House or the NSA invasion on the privacy of millions of unsuspecting citizens? I think not, and yet these and other stories of the utmost importance were either ignored or given a back seat to the Paula Deen story which, when taken in context with the high level scandals, Putin's snubbing of an American president, the potentially explosive situations in so much of the world the story was certainly not newsworthy enough to be featured five nights in a row on network news. Wouldn't a week-long investigation into the life of Lois Lerner, the things she's done and the reason she's pleading the fifth be more meaningful to the American people? What about what's going on in Israel? The media has been strangely quiet on that front lately, is there nothing worth reporting in that volatile part of the world? How about the coming catastrophic tidal wave the effect of Obamacare is going to have on America, is there nothing worth questioning in the over 30,000 pages of regulations? How about the fact that due to federal over regulation it's nearly impossible to live in the U.S. without breaking some law? How about the Christian pastor who is being held in one of the worst hell hole prisons in the world in Iran for nothing more than sharing his faith? How about a whole way of life that's being destroyed in West Virginia by the president's war on coal? I think you get the picture. No wonder the mainstream media has fallen so far in the trust of the American people. Why is the Paula Deen story worth so much airtime if not to take attention off the truly important issue, the life changing things that really affect the lives of Americans? The news is not about news anymore. It's about protecting some people, destroying others and shoving a socialist agenda down the collective throats of America. What do you think? Pray for our troops and the peace of Jerusalem. 

God Bless America

KTVU Botches Story - Unbelievable.......

The San Francisco Bay Area Fox station, KTVU aired the following report. They claimed that they received their information from the National Transportation Safety Board. 

This video is housed on YouTube. I anticipate that it will be removed soon.

In the event that this video has been removed, the anchorette reads the names of the pilots of  Asiana Flight 214 as Captain Sum Ting Wong,  Wi Tu Lo, Ho Lee Fuk and Bang Ding Ow.

Cardinals Erase Christian Symbol

Oh my God eh, gosh!  It's a cross and a fish?

The St. Louis Cardinals have always struck me as an odd organization. This dates back to 1964 when I became aware of their existence as they played the Yankees in the World Series.

On the right, you see the pitcher's mound at their home ballpark. You can see that a "cross" was drawn on the mound. Near the cleat cleaner, you can see something that looks like a Christian "fish symbol." Well, that's not a "fish." It is a number "6," in tribute to Stan Musial, a former Cardinal player who died, last January.

So what? Religion in baseball is nothing new.  For years, players have made the "sign of the cross" in the batter's box.

Well, a Cardinal fan complained. Michael Vines did not pitch his bitch to the Cardinals, no, he sent an e-mail to the St. Louis Riverfront Times newspaper. A real grownup would have complained to the "offender" - the Cardinals.

Well, the mystery/problem has been solved and has been taken care of. A groundskeeper, on occasion, has drawn the offending images on the mound. He was told by the Cardinals to stop. It's a relief to know that he did not lose his job!

I'd like to point out to Mr. Vines that his city, Saint Louis, is named after a SAINT! Also a cardinal is a red bird....but it's also a high ranking official in the Catholic Church!

Mr. Vines, grow up.

The holiday weekend is over and it's time to get back to normal. OK, but there's nothing normal about Lana Kendrick!

Lana is from Delaware, she's tall, looks real good in a bathing suit and, well...that's all I know about her.

I do have it on good advice that the assets in the picture are authentic.

If you click the picture, you'll get a much nicer view.

Have a great week!

Typical Day At The Grocery Store

I don't do any grocery shopping, but this is neat.....

Woman flushed from water park for hot outfit

Madelyn Scheaffer

Too sexy for the water park! That's what officials at Adventure Oasis in Independence, Missouri say about 43-year-old Madelyn Scheaffer. She was asked to leave the premises. Her swimsuit was showing too much "real estate" for the locals. She refused to go. Cops were called and she left.

The picture that you see is Madelyn in her banned bikini.

I don't agree with the ruling, you see, I've been to Wal-Mart!
