Ghost of Columbia – Part II: Legendary Columbia Professor Never Heard of Obama

June 7, 2013 at 12:44pm

In reply to tltaylor76.

@Saranda – Graduated as in received a diploma? Sure I believe Columbia gave him a degree. If you read the first article from earlier in the week, the author says he believes that Obama has a degree from Columbia. The questions he’s asking, is what did Obama do to earn that degree? Apparently, he wasn’t in any of the pre-law/poli-sci classes. Nobody remembers him in class or on campus. If you look it up on fact checker.org, his roommate talks about his time at Columbia and they have an email from ONE person who remembers playing soccer with him on campus. Other than that, he’s vapor…

Janet Napolitano Responds to Report of Deportation for Former ‘Person of Interest’: ‘Not Worthy of an Answer’

Why does that placard say “Hon. Napolitano”? I’m assuming that’s supposed to be short for Honorable? Shouldn’t it be Sec Napolitano? Sorry, my OCD kicked it…

“there’s been so much reported on this that’s been wrong I can’t even begin to tell you, congressman,”
If she can’t tell them anything, then why is she there? Why can’t she report what she does know?
‘Shocked and Horrified’: Glenn Beck’s Gripping Interview With Vet Arrested After ‘Rudely Displaying’ His Gun

Doing our own research like looking up the laws pertaining to the carrying of long guns in TX? There is not specific law that prevents the open carry of a long gun in TX. There is a clause that states it can be considered disorderly conduct if a person “displays a firearm or other deadly weapon in a public place in a manner calculated to alarm”. That’s a class C misdemeanor and would be open to interpretation as to whether the manner in which he was carrying was intended to cause alarm.

Or did you mean doing our research, like actually watching the video of the incident? In which, the officer has to ask if he has any other firearms and has to lift up his shirt to retrieve the .45 on his left hip?

As for the feral pigs, they will charge you without provocation and there tusks will do some nasty damage. From the video, didn’t look like there were a lot of trees to climb. Have YOU ever faced one down empty handed? What about empty handed with your teenage son right beside you?

Regardless of his need to carry, this is more about the attitudes of the officers involved. One stated they were exempt from the law and there attitude toward disarming was just one step below shooting first and asking questions later.

Wash. State Suing Christian Florist After She Refuses to Provide Flowers for Gay Wedding

April 10, 2013 at 3:41pm

While I applaud the business owner for standing up and stating the reason they did not want to provide service, when will they learn?

The correct answer to that is, “Sure we can do that. Oh, wait! You said the 5th? Oh no, sorry I’m already booked for that day. I can recommend another florist for you if you’d like.”
Colorado’s Gun Control Update — Which Bills Are Advancing?

Well, since MagPul is located in CO, probably thousands. (At least until they pass this bill and MagPul makes good on it’s promise to leave the state).
Jon Stewart Grills Susan Rice on Obama Admin’s Alleged Mismanagement of Benghazi Terror Attack

February 15, 2013 at 1:20pm

They are still parading her in front of the cameras! Everybody will continue to focus on her answers and the information that she gave. At the end of the day, her answers can be dismissed out of hand. She can be given the benefit of the doubt, that the situation was fluid, and that they were still trying to nail down specifics within 5 days of the attacks.

What can’t be dismissed and what people really should be asking (IMHO) is why was the ambassador there that night? (Running guns to Syrian rebels maybe?) And why after two full weeks was the administration still claiming a YouTube video led to a protest that started the attack?
Are Postal Workers Immune to Traffic Regulations? One Lawyer Thinks So

In reply to Vietvet1.

@Vietvet1
Since the lawyer that replied to the USPS represents a traffic cam operator, I would assume that these violations had absolutely nothing to do with parking and everything to do with moving violations. I would guess running red lights and/or speeding.
Oregon Baker Faces State Investigation After Refusing to Make Same-Sex Couple’s Wedding Cake

The moral of the story, is that if you don’t want to do it (for whatever reason) after asking the names, you ask for the date. Whatever the answer is, you pause, check your schedule and tell them you can’t do it for that date, that you already have other commitments scheduled.

What I’ve never understood is why a “customer” would want a business to provide a service for them if the business’s heart wasn’t in it. It just goes to show that most people have no comprehension of the free market system. If you don’t like the way a business does something, tell your friends, spread the word, boycott them. If there are enough like minded people, then you will get them where it hurts: the bottom line.
