PETITION: "Make Animal Abuse a Felony in all states for every convicted case of abuse"

Image
I just signed this petition! Make Animal Abuse a Felony in all states for every convicted case of abuse. Past Member just added signature #3,960 to the petition. This petition is to make animal abuse a felony in all states for every convicted case of abuse. The abusers need stiffer penalties and should also not be allowed to have another animal in their care. I furthermore would like to have an animal abuse registry for the abus ers, so I know who they are and to watch out for the safety of my animal if they move into my neighborhood. Right now do not have felony laws for animal abuse! Lets get this done to protect the innocent out there who depend on us. 2 hours ago

"Why the 'conservatives are dumb' meme works," or "Yee-ah, I's kin reed dat dere Consteetooshun real good"

REPOSTING FOR LINKAGE PURPOSES. http://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=396348796528 "Why the 'conservatives are dumb' meme works," or "Yee-ah, I's kin reed dat dere Consteetooshun real good" by Lee Thomas Walker on Thursday, July 15, 2010 at 6:38pm Below is an account of my experience as an observer at the Missouri state House of Representatives on April 7, 2010, taken from a message I sent to a House member not involved in following incident. The discussion pertained to a "state sovereignty" resolution being debated. "REP[Daniel] Nieves" is the legislator pushing this particular matter. (And yes, I have sent his official a copy of the original message.) The point of this, as the subject suggests, is to show just how stupid--ignorant--conservatives tend to be. Liberals play the "uneducated" label against conservatives. This is an anecdote as to why it works. And it will continue to work until peopl...

Yes, I'm an "elitist," and damn proud of it!

I've posted before about how people label me "elitist." Well, after one too many run-ins with uneducated conservatives, I hereby proudly claim that title. Most grassroots-level conservatives lack the political education, and often native intelligence, to understand issues. They are simply sheep to be manipulated. So fr om here on out, I will treat them as such. The country is too important to do otherwise. 3 minutes ago

My apologies for underestimating the stupidity of conservatives

Earlier I posted an article expressly because the writer showed a basic understanding of political science. I see now that the writer has caved to the ignorance of commenters. So I am deleting my posting of it, and posting once again this proof that far, far too many grassroots conservatives--even some elected offici ... als--are political morons.

Korean situation article, and the security problems it creates

Image
As a military intelligence professional, I can tell you that if I were a North Korean intel analyst, I'd have a field day with this article. I learned the number of troops and artillery pieces on the island and their present tactical limitations, the civilian situation, the domestic political situation and discontent, U.S. and South Korean intentions, and present security actions, with more waiting for a second reading.   Think about this the next time you read an expose' in the Lamestream Media or on Wikileaks. About 80 percent of intelligence gathering comes from such unclassified sources. That 80 percent is enough to get troops killed and countries and ... freedom endangered. Now, what was someone saying about "freedom of the press"?   SKorea's defense chief resigns after NKorea attack news.yahoo.com South Korea's president ordered more troops to a front-line island and dumped his defense minister Thursday as the country grappled with lapses in i...

"Black Invention Myths"

I have a reputation for being something of a "hoax-buster" in my conservative/Rightwing circle.

"Barn Cat" (YouTube link)

Image
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fSaZ9jkgMPA Time to post "Barn Cat" again. Our old calico of decades ago (dang, I'm old) was a friend to all who belonged on the farm, be they human, feline, canine, equine, or bovine. She took care of her kittens. And she hunted every form of small pest within a quarter-mile of the barn. In other words, she was decent, a good mother, and wor ked for a living. That's three points better than a lot of lazy welfare bums. Barn Cat www.youtube.com This is the barn cat that came into our lives in 2006.
