Political | The Bull Speaks!

I try to keep up with the political goings-on in my home state of South Carolina. (Don’t get me started about that sickening display of Mark Sanford’s, but I do have a soft spot for another prominent fellow in ol’ SC who speaks his mind…) Here’s the latest from The Palmetto Scoop

CHEROKEE COUNTY VOTERS ELECT REPUBLICAN IN HEAVILY DEMOCRATIC DISTRICT

It was the only election in America Tuesday night. And it gave Republicans one final win this year in the growing referendum against Barack Obama’s presidency.

Voters in Cherokee County elected a Republican to a county council seat never before held by the GOP.

Republican Tracy McDaniel crushed Democrat Thomas Moss in county council district seven with a stunning 61.2 percent of the vote.

“I’ll always do my best to study the issues, obtain the facts and make decisions on what is best for our citizens,” McDaniel told the Spartanburg Herald Journal prior to the election. “I know if we work together, we can make a difference for Cherokee County.”

Democrat James Batchler, who died in August, had held the seat for 40 years.

On the surface, McDaniel’s election may not seem significant. But a Republican win in a heavily Democratic district in South Carolina is symptomatic of eroding support for Obama and Democrats.

In November, voters in Virginia and New Jersey passed a similar anti-Obama referendum by electing Republican governors in states carried by the president during last year’s election.

I may be wrong. (It’s rare, but has happened before.) Methinks that the ‘Dems’ are going to have their hands full next year unless some freakin’ miracle occurs. This story doesn’t seem like much to most of you, I know, but you would have to understand the area. Republicans in Cherokee County have always been considered as being from the wrong side of the tracks.

Add one to the RIGHT side!

The ‘Savior’ of Liberal Americans, Barack H. Obama, has - in the opinion of The Bull – placed a probable pedophile in the position of ‘Safe Schools Czar’. One Kevin Jennings.

This foul bit of trash with the disgusting, and totally un-Constitutional, title of “Czar“. Jennings, who has a long history of drug abuse and promotion of homosexuality in schools, formerly headed a pro-homosexuality group called the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN). This group has published books targeted at students between the ages of 7 to 15 that are overwhelmingly pornographic in their detailing the sex acts between kids and much older men.

But wait! There is more!

(At this point I must ask parent to make sure that the kids are not reading over your shoulder. The Bull is by no means a prude, but there are things that clearly belong only in the adult world. While the line keeps creeping backwards, we parents must at least try to hold the line.)

At a GLSEN conference in 2000, (fully supported by the Massachusetts Department of Education, the Safe Schools Program, and the Governor’s Commission on Gay & Lesbian Youth), an activist asked 14 year old students “Spit or Swallow… is it rude?”  Now I don’t know about you guys, but the day an activist is allowed to ask my kids such a question, someone is going to get his ass kicked! It may be me, but that will be after the fight! Think I’m making this up? Here is the entire exchange for you…

Male Teacher: … Spit versus swallowing – I don’t know
about the calorie count of cum. All right. Is it rude? Let’s ask this
question: Is it rude not to swallow?

Students: No! Oh, no! [Many "no's" from the children.]

Male Teacher: No. So it’s in good bedroom etiquette … [unclear] to spit out?

In another exchange the pedophiles of GLSEN spoke to children on the sex act of ‘fisting’.

This is a group that paid Obama’s ‘Safe Schools Czar’, Kevin Jennings, $273,573.96 in fiscal year 2007 as their executive director. How safe do you think your kids are now under the care of a man I consider just another scumbag pedophile?

How’s that ‘Hope & Change’ working for you now?

Yep. I’ve praised him, right here on this blog and at the polls. When I had serious issues with the Veterans Administration, it was this Senator that had it all straightened out by the end of business that same day.

Despite all of that, The Bull now declares that all, and I mean ALL, support for Senator Richard Shelby is hereby ended. Why? Because neither I, nor any of my Herd, will support a TRAITOR to the American cause.

 

NO Shelby for Alabama!

NO Shelby for Alabama!

At a time when my beloved Nation is on the verge of total bankruptcy our senator voted for the latest spending bill which includes a 10% across the board increase (above inflation) – and - over five thousand (5000) earmarks in pork barrel spending. Yep, you read that right. F-I-V-E   T-H-O-U-S-A-N-D  earmarks! This senator is completely addicted to pork, and for that Sen. Shelby needs to be recalled by Alabamians.

Sadly, Senator ‘Porky Pig’ Shelby has amassed a simply enormous war-chest, (no doubt much of it from special interest groups that support his spending addiction), which will require an intervention on the part of Deity to remove the man from office. For the moment, that is…

Organization takes time, but the grassroots effort to replace this ‘little piggy’ with a real Conservative American has begun!

Until he is gone, the pork-addicted senator from Alabama will, from this point forward, be printed on this blog in the color of dried blood. The blood of Americans that are being raped by run-away spending and the blood of the Patriots who gave all for our Liberties which these worthless politicians laugh at as they carve up the Constitution piece-meal. This man has become a disgrace. A cheap, disgusting R.I.N.O. who was bought & paid for with a small pork project for his home town! America can no longer afford such spending – regardless of whose hometown wants the money. As a Nation we must become frugal with our budget if there is to be an America for our children and grandchildren. ‘Tax-and-spend’ people like Obama, Pelosi, Reid, and Richard Shelby must be booted from office.

Take notice, Shelby! It will take a bit of time and a fair amount of effort, but ‘We the People’ will see you voted out in disgrace!

Always Vigilant, Always Free!

Fox News reports the following this morning and asked what we felt. (I’ll assume for the moment that the folks at Fox meant We the People’ when they said that.)

Tiger Woods said Friday he is taking an indefinite leave from golf to work on saving his marriage,
 using the word "infidelity" for the first time. "I need to focus my attention on being a better husband,
 father, and person," he said.

Okay, here is how ‘We’ think…

(Perspective.)

‘We’ think that Tiger Woods gets paid one hell of a lot of money to play a game. It seems to be a fairly popular game and Mr. Woods appears to be the best person at this particular game yet known. This is all well and good, however, a lifetime of playing games has left Mr. Woods with no concept of hard work at anything. Life to him is – or perhaps, has been – just another game. Perhaps he was the recipient of too much money and too much fame, and all of this far too fast. Regardless, all people should know where their anchors are in Life. One is in Family and Mr. Woods either forgot that or was never taught be those who raised him or by his life as a gamer. Now after being caught as, and named, a philanderer, Mr. Woods appears to be making an effort to save the one thing in his life that is REAL. His family. Something he should have been working on all along. Is this a sincere effort, or just a ploy to ’save face’ with his fans and sponsors?  Only time will tell. If it turns out to be true then Mr. Woods should be commended for putting his family above golf and money. Some are condemning Mr. Woods for stepping back from golf. This is a thinking error. Family should be placed above any game. Above all remains the fact that golf is nothing but a game.

(Perspective.)

Constitution Pg1of4.thumbnail We the People on the Subject of Perspective

The Constitution

Meanwhile, back at the ranch (aka: Washington, D.C.), our Constitution – that wonderful document that delineates the bounds of our government and guarantees our Rights as a Free People is being eaten away by a swarm of vile and loathsome vermin in the guise of elected officials. New and ever larger taxes are being planned for all of us. Taxes that will drain our ability to ever again grow our economy and cripple our ability to support ourselves to the point that we are but sources of income for our slave masters – our very own government. Even our Freedom to health care is being stripped from us. Our Rights to even use water on our own property is being stripped from us and given to a governmental bureaucracy called the EPA. Our President is in foreign lands accepting with one hand an unearned international peace prize while with his other hand he signs the death warrant of the American Liberty in the name of what has been indisputably proven to be the HOAX of Global Warming.

(Perspective.)

All the while the enemies of Freedom & Liberty laugh with unfettered glee in their caves, tents, and palaces. They scheme and plot the deaths of innocents and the rape of women and children in the name of a twisted and filthy form of Islam. They seek to give all the world a simple choice: Become one of us, or die a most gruesome death. They have been held in check for decades because the feared the resolve of the American Spirit when roused. Then began the spiraling fall of American determination brought on by elected officials too busy lining their own pockets to do the work that they were sent to do AND a population caught up in the latest glitter from the Left coast and socializing on the internet. Our enemies watched and waited as American resolve began to tarnish. On 9/11 they thought to break that resolve and were caught in a whirlwind of death as America awoke to the horror of terrorism on our shores. Now though, eight years later, as we continue to root out the mind-twisted freaks of humanity that brought us terror in America, our own elected officials are doing a far better job of destroying the West and most specifically the last bastion of Freedom on Mother Earth.

(Perspective.)

All of this, my Dear Readers, and what graces the front page of the news? Even on Fox News?

Tiger Woods’ screwed up marriage, and the game of golf!

‘We’ believe that someone here is having difficulties with maintaining proper perspective.  What is more important? The game of hitting a small white ball with a skinny stick – or – the Freedom of own Nation, a Nation in crisis.

‘We the People’ believe that the United States of America has come to a simple choice of FREEDOM as written in our Constitution, or SLAVERY under a totalitarian government regime, be it Soviet-style or Islamic. As a people the choice is ours.

Today, December 7th, yet another infamous thing has occurred. This time right here on American soil by one of our elected officials!

‘Dingy Harry’ Reid, (as Limbaugh calls him, and I’m NOT a huge fan of Rush), leader of the Senate DemocRATS said that Republican who oppose the proposed health care reform package are like those who opposed civil rights for blacks in this country. Let me be the first to remind the esteemed idiot from the sin-State of Nevada that it was the Democrats that opposed the end to slavery, opposed civil rights, and that it was a Republican – indeed, the first Republican President, and one your ’savior’, Obama, adores – that ended slavery by the Emancipation Proclamation, one Abraham Lincoln.

You may remember reading about him, Mr. Reid. Assuming, of course, that you can read. From what we know to date you refuse to read any bill placed before you which leaves us all with a reason to wonder.

Idiot…

Something smells in South Carolina, and this time it is something more ‘fishy’ than the waters around Charleston!

I get regular emails from The Palmetto Scoop. It allows me a small idea of what is going on in my birth State of South Carolina. Todays email contained a link to a story they have published concerning the antics of one Dave Woodward, a poly-sci professor at Clemson University in my home county of Pickens. Seems the dear professor is running a racket that the Palmetto Scoop is calling “pay for say”. It’s simple really. Pay Woodward to write something nice for you as a politician or get a scathing attack from him in whatever rag will print his bile.

Granted, his attacks of late have been aimed at the stinking, back-stabbing, RINO, Sen. Lindsey Graham. Sure, the bastard needs to be attacked. and, sure, I do have more support for the more staunchly Conservative Jim DeMint. The fact is that this is NOT the way we need to garner support or win at any election! The time for such foolishness is over. Our Nation needs and deserves better! As I wrote in my comment on the Scoop’s website:

On the subject of Graham vs. DeMint: I’m sick to the teeth of these RINOs in Government. Every bit as sick as I am of those wanting to tie the GOP to the apron strings of the Religious Right come ‘hell or high water’!

What this nation needs, IMHO, is a true Conservative Constitutionalist. Even if you don’t agree with my politics, (and you are most welcome not to, this being America), I think we can all agree that such garbage as professor Dave Woodard appears to be getting away with is completely unacceptable. If there is no legal action that can be brought to bear then Clemson Univ. should certainly look into relieving Prof. Woodward of his position.

Go here and read the article for yourself. Try not to get drawn into a pissing contest by some of the Liberal & RINO comments. It also would not hurt to visit Clemson’s web site (the link is listed above) and send an email letting the school know what you think of a school funded by tax dollars that allows such games by its tenured staff.

Bull, out!

In an article on Fox News Online this morning it was revealed that the scum-bag thieves we have all come know know and despise as ACORN (Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now) have decided that since they have been stopped in the majority of their scemes to rob the American tax-paying public blind that they will simply sue the U.S. (read as “us”) for all the millions of dollars they have ‘lost’.

Read this…

Representatives for ACORN sued the federal government Thursday morning in an attempt to regain the millions of dollars in funding the community organizing group lost after filmmakers videotaped its workers offering advice on how to commit tax fraud and various other felonies.

The suit charges Congress with violating the Constitution when it passed legislation in September that specifically targeted ACORN to lose federal housing, education and transportation funds.

That qualifies the legislation as bills of attainder, according to the Center for Constitutional Rights, which filed the suit on behalf of ACORN. A bill of attainder punishes a person or group without the benefit of a trial, and is illegal under Article 1 of the Constitution.

Congress began cracking down on its funding to ACORN after its employees were secretly videotaped in a number of cities offering to help a man and woman posing as a pimp and prostitute to lie to the IRS and acquire illegal home loans.

Footage showed staffers advising the “pimp” and “prostitute” on how to falsify tax forms and seek illegal benefits for 13 “very young” girls from El Salvador that the pair said they wanted to bring to the country to work as child prostitutes. The videos set off a firestorm in Congress.        [more]

Well, you have to admit it, these thieves have balls! Personally, I don’t think they have a chance. The folks running ACORN ought to just be glad that they are not (yet) in prison! Considering the ‘Islamic Idiot’ now occupying the White House and the jack-booted morons running the House & Senate, who knows!  ACORN is likely to receive TARP money or be given a leading seat on the soon-to-be-formed ‘Death Care‘ administration by Pelosi, Reid, & Obama!

Folks, get on the damned phone and call your representatives in Washington and complain. Complain daily – about this, the healthcare reform, and all the other stupid-assed stuff flying around inside the beltway. The threat of losing power is the one and only thing these guys respond to – then throw them out anyway come the 2010 elections. We can’t get them all in 2010, but we can get enough to make the difference between having our Freedom or losing it.

Thomas Paine said it best in The American Crisis, No. 1, on December 19, 1776…

Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph.

To the Congress & Mr. Obama:
Let’s take a moment to review your record BEFORE you come to “We the People” for yet another round of corn-holing, ok?

  • The U.S. Postal Service was established in 1775 – you have had 234 years to get it right; it is broke.
  • Social Security was established in 1935 – you have had 74 years to get it right; it is broke.
  • Fannie Mae was established in 1938 – you have had 71 years to get it right; it is broke.
  • The “War on Poverty” started in 1964 – you have had 45 years to get it right; $1 trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to “the poor”; it hasn’t worked and our entire country is broke.
  • Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965 – you’ve had 44 years to get it right; they are broke.
  • Freddie Mac was established in 1970 – you have had 39 years to get it right; it is broke.
  • Trillions of dollars were spent in the massive political payoffs called TARP, the “Stimulus”, the Omnibus Appropriations Act of 2009… none show any signs of working, although ACORN appears to have found a new bitch: the American taxpayer.
  • And finally, to set a new record: “Cash for Clunkers” was established in 2009 and went broke in 2009! It took cars (that were the best some people could afford) and replaced them with high-priced and less-affordable cars, mostly Japanese. A good percentage of the profits went out of the country. And the American taxpayers take the hit for Congress’ generosity in burning three billion more of our dollars on failed experiments.

So with a perfect 100% failure rate and a record that proves that “services” you shove down our throats are failing faster and faster, you want Americans to believe you can be trusted with a government-run health care system? With over 20% of our entire economy?

With all due respect to your collective offices, but…

“Horseshit!”

No. I did not write the above letter. I am, however, posting it as a public service.

Yes, it is true. (…and perhaps the world is coming to an end…).

The Bull and Barack H. Obama, (or at least his Inaugural Committee), agree that – despite the objections falling from the foaming mouth of the rabid Alabama NAACP leader, one Edward Vaughn – the Mobile County Azalea Trail Maids will make a wonderful, not to mention beautiful, addition to a truly historic Inauguration.

Azalea Trail Maids on Parade
[Azalea Trail Maids on Parade]

Vaughn, in one of his more pitiful attempts at continued relevancy, made the comment that the Trail Maids should stay home on Inauguration Day, claiming the group reminds him of slavery. “These are not just regular costumes.” Vaughn said, “These are the costumes that remind someone of the plantation in Gone with the Wind.” Vaughn went on to say the group would be the laughing stock of the Inauguration.

Other folks, both black and white, seem to disagree with the Alabama NAACP leader. “I don’t see what the dresses have to do with racism. I don’t see it. It’s just a regular dress to me. Just a dress they wore back in the day,” said Carolyn Tius of Montgomery. Mobile County Commissioner Stephen Nodine said, “We want everyone to know that these young ladies do not need to be identified with slavery.”

This year’s 50 Trail Maids number 38 Caucasian young ladies with the remaining number being minorities. With that ratio I am hard pressed to see how someone, (even someone as deranged as Vaughn), can possibly find this wonderful organization in any way “racist”.

Since the 1920’s fifty young women from High Schools around the county are chosen to represent Mobile. Thousands of young women of all races apply each year for the 50 positions. They design and make their own intricate dress, costing between $3000 and $5000 each. They wear these beautiful, yet exceedingly heavy and hot costume dresses for a year, traveling around the county and even the Country representing Mobile and dealing with the tropical Mobile heat & humidity. It is challenging, expensive, and yet rewarding for the girls and their families. How does The Bull know? Because my beloved bride, Lady Beth, was a Trail Maid in 1994-95.

Lady Beth as a Trail Maid 1995
[Lady Beth as a Trail Maid 1995]

Yep, The Bull is a very fortunate man – as the above photo proves. But I digress…

Though they were caught by surprise by the invitation to the Inauguration, the Azalea Trail Maids will parade in Washington D.C. on January 20th. The Azalea Trail Maids show all that is good and proper about Mobile, Alabama, and the South. They show hospitality, civility, kindness, and consideration for others. They welcome distinguished visitors to our fair Home and guide many on tours of our land and explain our deep-rooted traditions. Indeed, to have the Trail Maids meet you at your arrival is considered a great honor.

It seems that Barack H. Obama understands that honor, and perhaps some of those traditions, even though he is not a Southerner.

It is a real shame that the Alabama NAACP and Edward Vaughn do not.

After having a fine, (though artery-clogging), breakfast at my favorite Waffle House here in Mobile County, Alabama with my eldest daughter, I had opportunity to stop in at a local Shell station to gas-up the mini-van. While inside I joined in with a group of locals discussing the election. The group consisted of both blacks and whites as well as Democrats, Republicans, and with my addition an Independent voter. It seems we all were in agreement this morning. That surprised me somewhat considering the demographics of the group, but it was a very nice surprise.

What exactly were we all in agreement on?

First off, that the election process – at every poll represented – went extremely smoothly with everyone in attendance acting like Americans should be expected to act: polite, considerate, and genteel in the fine Southern tradition. Sure, we had widely varying political positions and voted for very different candidates. Above it all, though, we were – and remain – Americans first. Apparently no one witnessed any of the silliness &/or violence reported in other States. I bet a lot of folks will find that strange since we Southerners are considered by most of the Country as knuckle-draggin’, moonshine-drinkin’, skin-head racist if we are white -or- as knuckle-draggin’, uneducated, welfare state junkies if we are black. Just proves true what The Bull has said all along: Southerners are the finest people that America produces – regardless of race.

Secondly, we agreed that the Republican party failed itself and the Conservatives here in America miserably by failing to even try to get out a clear statement of position. I was surprised to hear the Democrats in the group say that they wished that their side had only done moderately better and they wish that more details had been given as to how the plans of the incoming Administration would be implemented. We also agreed that the Republican party as it has existed since the end of the Reagan era is all but dead. The Dems have a chance here to prove themselves and their policies – but only one chance. There is still a heck of a lot of distrust out there for politicians of both stripes.he Republicans will waste no time in rebuilding themselves, and if they are smart they will do so in the image of the Reagan coalition, basing themselves on principles rather than politics. Only time will tell. Agreed it was that far too much money is being spent on these elections. To the point of where it appears that folks are buying their way into office.

We agreed that the time is right in America for the formation of a truly viable third party. Provided, of course, that they start now. The failing on all third parties up to this point is that they go into ’stealth mode’ between election cycles rather than making themselves and their position widely known for the years when others are resting on their laurels. And finally, we agreed that the election is indeed over and that we should all give the partisan crap a rest for a while and see what happens. Four years from now a change can be made should it be warranted. All-in-all, not bad for a bunch of knuckle-draggin’ Southerners…

History is made. America has spoken and for the first time in history She has called a black man to serve Her as President.

Yes. I am deeply saddened that the Liberals are in office. However, One can not deny history when it is made. This also puts me in conflict for I do remember the fiasco of the last really green, really liberal President – Carter – and the horrors of his policies, yet I truly hope that America’s first black president is not a failure for how that will be read by the racist elements still festering in pockets deep in the country’s shadows. I can’t help but want the next four years to be enough of failure on the part of the “Dims” to bring a more Conservative view back into favor, yet nothing is more important than the success of my Country for the future. I suppose that The Bull shall do what is left to The Bull to do: I shall pray. And in every prayer there will still be – as always – a request for guidance towards our leaders. And yes, that will include President Barack H. Obama.

I have heard Mr. Obama’s speech and I quote:

And to those Americans whose support I have yet to earn, I may not have won your vote tonight, but I hear your voices. I need your help. And I will be your president, too.

My reply: Sir, play straight with me and my Country and I will support you – regardless of party affiliation. Just remember that I shall hold you to your word.

Now I will address the folks out there pulling their hair and gnashing their teeth: Back Off! This crap being spouted about taking bets on how long President Obama will last is disgustingly anti-American! Remember, America is black as well as white – and brown. We are indeed the Great Melting Pot. There is no room for racism and there is no room for blind hatred and talk of violent removal of our leaders. Americans come in all colors and creeds. We have a means of removing those leaders we don’t like: the Ballot Box. In 2010 we will have another Congressional election and in 2012 another shot at the White House. Let’s see how things go for a while and see who needs to be removed by ballot in the next election.

Again, congrats to the President-elect Obama & Family.

Here is another of those emails that we find in our mailboxes from time-to-time that make us laugh or think hard about our lives. I want you, Dear Reader to remember that it is The Bulla disabled American – that is sending you this notice. Read on…

THIS IS TRULY THOUGHT PROVOKING.

There was a chemistry professor in a large college that had some exchange students in the class. One day while the class was in the lab, the Prof noticed one young man, an exchange student, who kept rubbing his back and stretching as if his back hurt.

The professor asked the young man what was the matter. The student told him he had a bullet lodged in his back. He had been shot while fighting communists in his native country who were trying to overthrow his country’s government and install a new communist regime.

In the midst of his story, he looked at the professor and asked a strange question. He asked:

“Do you know how to catch wild pigs?”

The professor thought it was a joke and asked for the punch line. The young man said that it was no joke.

“You catch wild pigs by finding a suitable place in the woods and putting corn on the ground. The pigs find it and begin to come everyday to eat the free corn. When they are used to coming every day, you put a fence down one side of the place where they are used to coming.

When they get used to the fence, they begin to eat the corn again and you put up another side of the fence. They get used to that and start to eat again. You continue until you have all four sides of the fence up with a gate in the last side.

The pigs, which are used to the free corn, start to come through the gate to eat that free corn again.

You then slam the gate on them and catch the whole herd. Suddenly the wild pigs have lost their freedom. They run around and around inside the fence, but they are caught.

Soon they go back to eating the free corn . They are so used to it that they have forgotten how to forage in the woods for themselves, so they accept their captivity.”

The young man then told the professor that is exactly what he sees happening in America . Liberals keep pushing us toward Communism/Socialism and keep spreading the free corn out in the form of programs such as supplemental income, tax credit for unearned income, tax cuts, tax exemptions, tobacco subsidies, dairy subsidies, payments not to plant crops (CRP), welfare, medicine, drugs, etc. while we continually lose our freedoms, just a little at a time.

One should always remember two truths:

1) There is no such thing as a free lunch

2) and you can never hire someone to provide a service for you cheaper than you can do it yourself.

If you see that all of this wonderful government ‘help’ is a problem confronting the future of democracy in America , you might want to send this on to your friends.

If you think the free ride is essential to your way of life, then you will probably laugh this off.

But God help you when the gate slams shut.  End of Article
