Oh Shoot

Oh, excuse me all over the place. I guess I watch FOX Red Eye too much. I thought it was actually normal term, since the sending of actual tea bags to DC and whatnot. edit: And btw, you had no cause to call me perverse! - OS

You're almost definitely off his Christmas card list this year. - OS

Y'all catching this stuff? These "have you quit beating your wife" "damned if you do damned if you don't" stunt amendments are really childish, even by capitol hill standards. I'm telling you, the GOP is doing themselves no favors. They're already included in the 65% opinion to get ALL incumbents out of there. I'm beginning to think if somebody threw the Tea Baggers a few billion quick bucks and a few savvy organizers, they might actually BE a party. - OS

Whew. - OS

I'd like to know the last president/veep who did NOT use the Fword. Carter possibly, but his brother would make up for it. - OS

If you mean the Dems, no way. Unless the Tea Baggers get big enough, which is unlikely, the Dems like them. The GOP does NOT. Though the Republicans speak highly of them at every opportunity, citing all the "shared foundations of principle" (and other horse pucky) the Tea Baggers are NOT Republicans, and the GOP is well aware of it. - OS

They're the quietest faction in the whole equation. Haven't heard one CEO spitting blood and vitriol on tube like so many others. Cats that swallowed the canaries, I'd say, at least for some time. - OS

Good good. I thought it had reverted or something. - OS

Naw, but the bad guys just stand in dumbfounded amazement till I get it out; they are imfriggingpressed, I tell ya. - OS

You get to vote in California? Maybe Ahnol' will run. That's the kind of fiscally responsible Republicans Kali puts out. Of course, there are currently 33 other Dems in the House from Kali that you need to oust, too. Nancy might not much care at this point; what other mountain so tall could she possibly climb? I guess it would be ego smack to be ousted rather than retire, though. - OS

The mighty Republicans could win landslides in the next 2 elections if they'd campaign on replacing the IRS with the Fair Tax. Of course, they wouldn't DO it, but they could win a bunch of elections. Another reason the Tea Party folks are NOT Republicans. Actually, unless the Tea Baggers get big enough, which is unlikely, I think the Dems dig them a helluva lot more than the GOP does. - OS

Yeah, if I'm gonna carry a scattergun, it ain't gonna be a 3" .410. - OS

I thought that was the same bugaboo that was reason previous statute was found "unconstitutionally vague". ??? - OS

Quite subtle, I admit. I prefer this even more discreet carry of a big gun: - OS

The myth that will never die. I suspect at this point that if TN did make it illegal to carry in a bank, the myth would change to say that you can, since the bank carry myth must survive. - OS

I guess it's in the requirements for the carry class. Which aren't really "statutes", but "rules". Or something. - OS

Yeah, they seem to be the highest of the new handgun sellers at the Knoxville shows ... - OS

No, they banded together as communities, with blockades, watch groups, and GUNS to protect their respective turfs. Since the gooberment there was about as inept as ours in response near as I can surmise. I'm thinking Tierra Del Fuego. Little cool down there, but looks like great fishing. - OS

Absolutely. IRS is about citizen control as much as money. That's why the Fair Tax will never happen. - OS

Because most of them don't bore you with their reliability right out of the box like say a Glock or XD. - OS

At least you didn't go to a foreign country. Like Illinois or somewhere. - OS

Relax, you're 100 miles from Fayetteville. - OS

Sidewinder, I hate to see such passion tacked onto a 3 year old thread revival. I'd say that "immigration reform" will be the next Obamanation, but you might want to start a new thread to address it. - OS

Yeah, looks good there (not): "On 10 April 2009 President Iloilo suspended the Constitution of Fiji, dismissed the Court of Appeal and, in his own words, "appoint[ed] [him]self as the Head of the State of Fiji under a new legal order".[19] As President, Iloilo had been Head of State prior to his abrogation of the Constitution, but that position had been determined by the Constitution itself. The "new legal order" did not depend on the Constitution, thus requiring a "reappointment" of the Head of State. "You will agree with me that this is the best way forward for our beloved Fiji", he said. Bainimarama was re-appointed as Interim Prime Minister; he, in turn, re-instated his previous Cabinet. On 13 July 2009, Fiji became the first nation ever to be expelled from the Pacific Islands Forum, for its failure to hold democratic elections by that date. On 1 September 2009, Fiji became only the second country to be suspended from the Commonwealth of Nations. The action was taken because Commodore Frank Bainimarama refused to hold elections by 2010, elections that the Commonwealth of Nations had demanded after the 2006 coup. He states a need for more time to end a voting system he claims favours ethnic Fijians. Critics claim that he has suspended the constitution and was responsible for human rights violations by arresting and detaining opponents." - OS

Just another solid argument for the Fair Tax. The gummit will still misuse the funds, but at least they can't take any individual citizen to task. - OS
