In other news water is wet, the sky is blue, and our politicians are morons. Nothing changes. A new report shows that the Palestinians and global media spread false information about actions of the IDF during the 2014 Gaza war.
Curtis & Leroy saw an ad in the Starkville MS Daily and bought a mule for $100.
The farmer agreed to deliver the mule the next day.
The next morning the farmer drove up and said, “Sorry, fellows, I have some bad news, the mule died last night.”
Curtis & Leroy replied, Well, then just give us our money back.”
The farmer said, “Can’t do that. I went and spent it already.”
They said, “OK then, just bring us the dead mule.”
The farmer asked, “What in the world ya’ll gonna do with a dead mule?” Curtis said, “We gonna raffle him off.” The farmer said, “You can’t raffle off a dead mule!” Leroy said, “We sure can! Heck, we don’t hafta tell nobody he’s dead!”
A couple of weeks later, the farmer ran into Curtis & Leroy at the Piggly Wiggly grocery store and asked. “What’d you fellers ever do with that dead mule?”
They said, “We raffled him off like we said we wuz gonna do.”
Leroy said, “Shucks, we sold 500 tickets for two dollars apiece and made a profit of $998.”
The farmer said, “My Lord, didn’t anyone complain?”
Curtis said, “Well, the feller who won was kinda upset, so we gave him his two dollars back.”
Curtis and Leroy now work for the government. They’re overseeing the Medicare and Social Security Programs.
Limit all U.S. politicians to just two Terms. One in office and one in prison
Perhaps a better way to say it is – too many UNeducated people vote. A call for a small civics test to be able to vote sounds like a good idea. Maybe 10 or 20 questions. This prep quiz from the USCIS (US Citizenship and Immigration Services — division of Homeland Security that gives the tests for those choosing to become citizens) would be excellent! https://my.uscis.gov/prep/test/civics
Todd Herman of Kiro Radio in Seattle says it well. Again though, not a generalization of just “too many” voting – but too many uneducated (hopefully) citizens voting for their personal interest. Not what’s best for the country.
Tell us how you did on the civics test!
She wasn’t the first person, and she wasn’t the last either. Meredith Walker opens up about her decision to leave the Republican party.
The FBI found nearly 15,000 emails former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton never turned over to the government after she left office – despite her insistence she’d handed in all her work-related messages. The Obama administration revealed the messages in a court hearing Monday. The 14,900 emails are just part of thousands the FBI has turned… (more…)
“We do not pay ransom. We didn’t here, and we won’t in the future.” Barack Obama might like to have that one back this morning, to stick a pin in the moving finger that writes. But the finger done writ, and it won’t come back to cancel a single line of the president’s fatuous fib that… (more…)
She just became the first Olympic athlete, male or female, to medal in six consecutive summer Olympic Games, but most sports fans have never heard of U.S. skeet-shooter Kim Rhode. Conservatives say there’s a reason for that: She’s pro-Second Amendment. Not only that, she supports Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump. “It’s media bias: Olympics edition,” Matt… (more…)

It seems these days voters are almost nauseous at the thought of going to the polls in November and casting their vote for someone who may be our next president. The options thus far had been Trump or Clinton, a truly sad option, with some seeing Gary Johnson as a last hope (who’s running for president…again. He’s certainly determined). Between Never Trump and Never Hillary, a new option has come and it’s not Gary Johnson or….gulp…Jill Stein. No this new candidate is Evan McMullin.
The 2016 Olympic Games have been billed as an opportunity to put politics aside in the spirit of international camaraderie, but that’s not necessarily how it’s working out for Israeli athletes. Animosity toward the 47-athlete delegation has already triggered a reprimand from the International Olympic Committee and alarm from Jewish groups like the Anti-Defamation League, which… (more…)
PASADENA, Calif., August 8, 2016 – Hillary Clinton’s record is widely ignored and distorted by the mainstream media. They now push the liberal narrative that Clinton is the “most qualified” candidate ever. Clinton’s supporters speak that phrase with conviction, as if it were fact. It is mind boggling that the academic President Obama could even say… (more…)
