All in the Family featured the curmudgeonly Archie Bunker. Archie was television’s most famous grouch, blunt, blustering, straightforward and untouched by the PC crowd. He was the archetype of the conservative male. Michael desprately tried to reeducate him, but he persisted in his breviloquence.



Looking back at the last 40 years, we realize: ARCHIE WAS RIGHT!

Sandoval Soft Soaping

The "moderate" Republican leadership is getting ready to sell America out in the Supreme Court.  The elites are either so stupid that they shouldn't be allowed out of a padded cell for fear of hurting themselves, or they believe the Republican base is.

Perhaps only nominee who could bypass GOP blockade
President Obama may have decided on a Supreme Court nominee who could break Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s pledge of “no action” until after the 2016 election: Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval.
“I don’t pick the justices, but I know if he were picked, I would support the man,” Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid told reporters in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday. “He’s a good person, has a great record, and has been a tremendously good governor in spite of having to deal with some very big problems there.”
The newspaper noted, however, that Sandoval does support the implementation of Obamacare and considers same-sex marriage a “settled issue.”
That settles it.  Harry Reid likes the guy.  Now we all know he is an unprincipled sell out that can only be trusted to screw America over every chance he gets.  This Sandoval is in favor of calling butt sex marriage and believes in Obama care.  Why does the republican party even let him claim to be a member?  This is what a RINO looks like.

Res ipsa loquitur people.  If Sandoval wasn't on board with the Radical Obama Agenda, B.O. would never consider him. 

This business about Sandoval being the only nominee who could pass the GOP blockade is a semi truck load of utter crap.  A genuine, outspoken opponent of the unethical behavior of the current court, or a dyed in the wool strict constructionist could be appointed.  Obummer is never going to nominate one of them.  That kind of Justice might seek to undo the injustice of the last eight years.

A word to the Republican base and anyone who loves America: Get ready to take it in the shorts, again.

    From Obama's blog post on the matter, one of the important items he looks for in a candidate:

    "It’s the kind of life experience earned outside the classroom and the courtroom; experience that suggests he or she views the law not only as an intellectual exercise, but also grasps the way it affects the daily reality of people’s lives in a big, complicated democracy, and in rapidly changing times."

    Exactly the kind of experience that can only come from a wise Latina woman:

    "Second, I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn't lived that life."

    White male privelege disqualifying you from a SCOTUS post, bitchez!

    'Cuz life experience! *mic drop*

      So I guess if a wise Latina woman isn't available, they'll settle for a progressive Hispanic male?

  2. Anything, and I do mean ANYTHING Obama and Reid are for in the slightest, is my signal to run fast and hard the other way.

    Obama and Reid endorsements are the kiss of death for any person who calls themselves a Republican. This is nothing more than the dead, fermented rat on the top of the sewage sundae of disaster that Obama and Reid have given this nation.

    I think it is pretty much guaranteed now that McConnell will cave on his stand now.

      Update: according to a link on the MSN homepage, Sandoval doesn't want the nomination. Smart man.

      That would be some worm bucket to find yourself in the middle of this year. He was better off politely shutting this down pronto.

    These guys are so predictable, it's like you can see the future.

    So, apparently Scalia was a member of this hunting organization called the International Order of St. Hubertus, whose motto is Deum Diligite Animalia Diligentes (“Honoring God by Honoring His Creatures”).

    Here's a bit of their history [with some of my own commentary -WB]:

    "The Venerable Order of Saint Hubertus was corporate in 1695 by Count Anton von Sporck [inventor of the eating utensil that bears his name -WB], gathering the greatest noble hunters of the the 17th Century [when hunting nobles was still a popular sport -WB], particularly in Bohemia, Austria and countries of the Austro Hungarian Empire [English, French, Italian, and Spanish nobles were apparently out of season -WB], ruled by the Habsburgs.

    The Order was named after Hubert, the patron saint of hunters and fishermen
    [and lead author of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 -WB]. St. Hubert is also the Patron of archers, trappers, fur hunters, mathematics, blacksmiths and dog trainers [but he would have absolutely nothing to do with crossbows, fish nets, faux fur manufacturers, anthropology, wainwrights, and cat lovers -WB].

    In 1938, after Austria was absorbed
    [is that what they're calling invasion now? -WB] by the German Reich, Herman Göring demanded membership on the Order and executed the Grand Prior when he was denied [some people REALLY love their hunting and fishing -WB]. At the end of the World War surviving members of the Order [who obviously hadn't lived in Germany -WB], were authorized by Halvor O. Ekern, chief political advisor of the US Armed Forces in Austria [and from whom mighty oaks grow -WB] to use their sporting guns to provide winter food to the rural population [Deer for Downtrodden -WB], avoiding not only famine but helping to save the country from falling behind the Iron Curtain [and from being overrun by wildlife run amok due to underhunting -WB]."

    And so on.

    Res Ipsa, this is an organization that seems right up your alley.

      Deer for Downtrodden

      Also: Boar for Poor and Pheasants for Peasants

      They really cared about those who they wouldn't allow to own their own guns and hunt their own food.

    2. I'd love to become a certified jager and be in a club like that. Even to be allowed to participate in a hunt would be an honor.

      The system to be properly certified in Germany is more involved than what we do in the US. It would be great fun to go through it.
