Brad Paisley and I have our political and attitudinal differences, but this song says so much about the REAL America: http://youtu.be/n_KxM4rU38Q Brad Paisley - This Is Country Music (CMA Awards 2010) Brad Paisley - This Is Country Music (CMA Awards 2010) And for some fun: "Online" Both videos feature the luscious Kellie Pickler (and some other famous country chick).

I'm also glad the Tea Party is staying focused on the economy.  After all, something like this is minor compared to our ability to buy Xboxes and satellite TV service.  We can live without an electrical grid, but not without our electronic playth...   Oh wait.     ----- Forwarded Message ----- From: ACT! for America Houston donotreply@wordpress.com Sent: Tuesday, January 3, 2012 12:33 PM Subject: [New post] The EMP Death Ray New post on ACT! for America Houston The EMP Death Ray by actforamericahouston by David Solway The popular trope of an evil genius who has mastered the technology of ultimate destruction and wields a death ray he is preparing to unleash from space has long entertained us.

(Sorry about the black box frame extending over. I am not a professional on running this site, and cannot figure out how to fix it. If anyone knows how, please contact me. You see, unlike Teabrainers, I actually care about doing things right and don't try to play individualist. The problem is that I have to run this site entirely on my own. Organizations like Tea Party groups have no such excuse. But hey, at least I'm not misspelling, "didn't"!) - - If Ron Paul wins Iowa, I claim full freedom to make all the "Teabrainer" jokes I desire.

The "re-imagined" 2000s Battlestar Galactica ends with the survivors of the Twelve Colonies finding Earth as an undeveloped planet with only semi-intelligent life [TEABRAINER JOKE OMITTED]. The series ends with Season 4, Episode 20, where the decision is made to follow a low-tech and no-government approach to rebuilding the human race. The video depicts a fanfic view of what Episode 21 would rightly show. One can quibble about the exact applicability. (Just not here--I don't allow comments! LOLOLOL) That is reasonable. That said, I hope viewers will consider the similarities between the decision made in the story and the seeming rejection of government and group mindedness by libertarians and the Tea Party movement (although wisely neither proposes to give up the technological advances which have been facilitated by government and cooperation). Note the quotes at the end, and consider. http://youtu.be/ndbcLU0U28M

He reiterated his previously stated position that al-Awlaki's American citizenship entitled him to due process. - "As bad as they were, you know even Adolf Eichmann finally when he was captured he was taken to Israel.

Neither of these is perfect in substance, but both represent valid and substantiated concerns, as well as a certain general course of action we need to take. On the first one, please excuse the ultra-Teabrainer-level misspellings for foreignization of words. It is worth watching. http://youtu.be/_iSIAINDixY On this second one, please be patient with the narrator's anti-corporatism. http://youtu.be/gLfIWmLpie4
