News to Cry About

A Mississippi State legislator/preacher has entered a bill in that state's House to allow churches to designate certain members of their congregations as armed protectors.  These persons would have gun training (whatever that might be) and be allowed to be armed during church services.  They would not be required to have a permit to carry a concealed weapon.

In addition, church members would be allowed to "pack heat" themselves, and woe to those perpetrators who would enter into the sanctuary to cause mischief.

What the hell is happening in this country?  Idiots in Mississippi and idiots in North Carolina.  And idiots running for President.  Oh, man, and I thought that W was a nutcase!  Mr. Trump hates everybody and Mr. Cruz is hated by everybody.   Hillary is being harassed by investigators and only Bernie is left to straighten out the mess.  However, when did a Socialist ever have a chance on attaining the highest office in the land?  No wonder so many people are visiting the Nova Scotia website.

Bernie's Bills

The Washington Spectator, using Thomas.gov  as it's source, lists a sampling of bills that Bernie Sanders has tried to make into law.  (I'll just give the titles, not the S#.)

o  Social Security Expansion Act

o  Corporate Tax Dodging Prevention Act

o  End Polluter Welfare Act of 2015

o  Too Big to Fail, Too Big to Exist Act

o  College for All Act

o  Employ Young Americans Now Act

o  Guaranteed Paid Vacation Act

o  Responsible Estate Tax Act

o  Pay Workers a Living Wage Act

Bernie gets more appealing to me all the time.  He knows what we "died in the wool" liberal semi-socialists want.  I wonder how much of his vision set he could get acted on by using Executive Orders?


OK,  OK.. enough.. how about a couple of old jokes that Readers Digest has resurrected...

Sex and the Single Cow

The only cow in a small Russian village stopped giving milk, so the villagers went to Minsk and bought a new one.  The cow produced lots of milk, and the people were so happy they decided to buy a bull to mate with the cow and produce more cows like it.

But the cow wanted nothing to do with the bull, constantly moving away every time Ferdinand approached.  So the people asked their wise rabbi what to do.

After some reflection, the rabbi asked, Did you buy this cow from Minsk"?"

"You are truly wise," said the townspeople, "How did  you know?"

The rabbi answered sadly, "Because my wife is from Minsk."

Barf, Barf!

A timid little man was seated in the window seat of an airplane next to a scowling brute of a guy.  The little man was terrified of flying, and as soon as the plane took off, he felt sick.  But his seatmate was fast asleep, and he couldn't figure out how to get past him to the bathroom.  And then it was too late:  he got sick all over the big guy.

As he frantically wiped up the mess, careful not to wake the giant, the brute's eyes flew open.  The timid man smiled and said in a shaky voice, "Feeling better now"?"
