What do you think about relocating the Gitmo terrorists to states who’s Senators spoke out loudest for its closure. Better yet why not have them stay in the politicians homes like foreign exchange students.
I think that is a great idea. Maybe not staying in their homes (as much as I really do agree), but at least in their prisons. I believe that is only fair. From an objective standpoint, not necessarily from the ‘i want them to eat their own food’ standpoint.
Any surprise it may be Michigan where these enemy terrorists may be relocated to?
Think about it…Michigan has the biggest Muslim population in this country.
Quite sure CAIR and others of their ilk are delighted, if not somewhat behind this in the first place.
Anybody ever see this?
Eye-Opening, this is in Dearborn if memory serves me correctly…talk about seeing red when you watch this…and of course the msm stay silent while the enemy within build more power against us.

@Buffalobob:
Hope I’m doing this correct, I tried to leave a comment earlier here.
Anyway…is it any wonder the O-Team picked Michigan to relocate the Muslim terrorists…they’ll be right at home, after-all Michigan has the biggest population of Muslims.
You want to see red, watch what happened recently in Dearborn, a nice little place to visit.

Nothing like the enemy within hard at work.
I would not for one second be surprised if CAIR and their ilk weren’t behind the move to Michigan of their bestest buddies.
@Buffalobob: Wouldn’t it be great to see the politicians’ reactions when these “exchange students” shared their Gitmo experience by throwing feces, tossing vials of urine and clogging up the toilets with the Koran — all while insisting on the best vegetarian meals. Then the senators could brush up on their law skills and hire a good PR firm when the “students” filed suits charging them with torture and racism just for the heck of it.
We all remember the constant screech from the msm, hand in hand with the leftist congress-critters about big bad Cheney/Haliburton…
Want to see far more than hypocrisy…read this.

…and for the most part, the media remain mum.
Where is the call for investigations, a blue star panel and all that jazz?
I haven’t read Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel’s book, “Healthcare Guaranteed,” and truth be told, I would not buy his book, maybe check it out from the library if I had time, but I don’t have time.
To get to the point, I just read a column written by…..Chuck Norris, didn’t realize how clever and well informed he was, he also had time to read that book. He cites examples in the book and compares Emanuel’s steps to health care reform with what is going on now….with Obama.
Very interesting read, excerpt:
It gets much better, like, how about setting up a federal healthcare system modeled on our…..Federal Reserve…..read on:

I will repost this for the benefit of those of you that missed it.
Some of your friends and neighbors may be experiencing buyers remorse
from the last election. You know who they are.
There is a 12 Step Program for those idiots so they don’t screw Us again.
*The Twelve Steps for Obamamania Recovery*
1. We admitted we were powerless over his appealing aura and that our lives and our nation had become unmanageable.
2. We came to believe that powers such as democracy, liberty, loyalty to nation, and independence were greater than personal charm and empty promises and could restore us to sanity.
3. We made a decision to turn away our will and lives from the false messiah as we understood him.
4. We made a searching and fearless moral inventory of the shallow reasons for voting for him.
5. We admitted to ourselves and to friends and family members (who had serious concerns about an inexperienced person with shameful associates being qualified for the most important position in the nation) the exact nature of our wrongs.
6. We were entirely ready to read the Constitution and learn more about the Founding Fathers and the principles of this nation in order to remove these defects from our character.
7. We cleared our thinking so that we neither discounted associations with rabid anti-Semites nor found convoluted rationalizations for such associations convincing.
8. We made a list of all persons we had harmed (people who use banks, people who drive cars, people who might get sick and die in a nation with a single medical provider, Israelis who are left to fend for themselves against the murderous intentions of the Iranian regime, the Iranian protestors whose cries we ignored, Muslim women, whose abusers we protected in the name of cultural diversity, bloggers who were reported to the authorities for contradicting the official White house position. Radio talk-show hosts whose criticisms were silenced by the “Fairness Law.” The list is too long to complete. ) and became willing to make amends to them all.
9. We made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others. We spoke up at town hall meetings to protect our rights as Americans. We lobbied our senators and representatives for legislation that would re-strengthen the almost severed ties between Israel and the U.S. We were relentless in our demands that this nation not blame Israel for the lack of peace in the Middle East, but put the full force of our power on Tehran which threatened the existence of the Jewish State of Israel. We insisted that our elected officials and media not appease our enemies by refusing to even name them and undermine the security of our country and the world by expressing more concern for terrorists than for their victims.
10. We continued to take personal inventory, read the Weekly Standard and the American Thinker and watch Fox News to keep ourselves from succumbing to the pandering, paid for propagandists that make up much of the major media. We volunteered to help and financially supported candidates who had a strong record of upholding the best interests of the U.S. and its allies. We applied facts and reasoning to the comedic outbursts of Bill Maher, Al Frankin and Nancy Pelosi and when they were wrong, we promptly admitted it.
11. We sought through prayer and meditation to improve our spiritual contact with God, as we understood Him/Her, praying only for wisdom to stop dismissing those with strong religious affiliations as “kooks” and start showing respect for the Judeo-Christian underpinnings of our nation’s success.
12. Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these Steps, we tried to carry this message to Obamamaniacs, and to practice these principles in all our affairs so that the United States of America could survive until the next election.
Ha! Old Trooper, I saw a website yesterday that will help those that are now sorry they voted for Obama.

Mexico, Our Great Ally in the War on Dope has a surprise!

By MARK STEVENSON (AP) – 7 hours ago
MEXICO CITY — Mexico decriminalized small amounts of marijuana, cocaine and heroin on Friday — a move that prosecutors say makes sense even in the midst of the government’s grueling battle against drug traffickers.
Prosecutors said the new law sets clear limits that keep Mexico’s corruption-prone police from extorting casual users and offers addicts free treatment to keep growing domestic drug use in check.
“This is not legalization, this is regulating the issue and giving citizens greater legal certainty,” said Bernardo Espino del Castillo of the attorney general’s office.
The new law sets out maximum “personal use” amounts for drugs, also including LSD and methamphetamine. People detained with those quantities no longer face criminal prosecution.
Espino del Castillo says, in practice, small users almost never did face charges anyway. Under the previous law, the possession of any amount of drugs was punishable by stiff jail sentences, but there was leeway for addicts caught with smaller amounts

Just what We needed. More liberal rules from Our Southern Neighbor on dope.
Aqua, I did NOT vote for the Kenyan but I have noticed a few hastily scraped off Obama bumper stickers last time I went to town. Montana is not impressed with much that is thrown at Us from the swamp in DC lately. We know what his core values are. They come from Karl Marx, Saul Alinsky and his Pastor of over 20 years, Wright. WE aren’t buying into that here.
A 12 Step Program is a lot kinder than the gallows or putting them up against a wall.
Repent now America, go forth and sin no more!
While the Kenyan and his tribe are on Holiday at Marthas Vineyard another fine Government Program needs attention. I did not think that the Marthas Vineyard crowd needed their Community organized. Maybe it is a fact finding junket.

As Vets await checks, VA workers get $24M bonuses
By KIMBERLY HEFLING, Associated Press Writer Kimberly Hefling, Associated Press Writer – 1 hr 12 mins ago
WASHINGTON – Outside the Veterans Affairs Department, severely wounded veterans have faced financial hardship waiting for their first disability payment. Inside, money has been flowing in the form of $24 million in bonuses.
In scathing reports this week, the VA’s inspector general said thousands of technology office employees at the VA received the bonuses over a two-year period, some under questionable circumstances. It also detailed abuses ranging from nepotism to an inappropriate relationship between two VA employees.
*********************************************************************
A backlog of over 800k Claims? Performance Bonuses?
WTF? Public hangings, horse whippings and firings are in order.
*********************************************************************
The Kenyan expresses concerns about the Afghan Elections. He needed to send ACORN and the SEIU in total over there on mission. Let them live in the dirt like our Troops and discover a few minefields, eat some goat and be useful. We are subsidizing them. Lets get our moneys worth from some Election fraud experts.
@Old Trooper:
Good adaptation of the 12 steps, Old Trooper.
I’m stealing it =)
Friday August 21, 2009 was the start of greatest religious observance in Islam “Ramadan”
Friday August 21, 2009 was the day President Obama started his vacation.
I know its just a coincidence

@ Old Trooper Sorry my friend, I wasn’t accusing you of voting for Obama, I’d sooner accuse you of being Navy motor pool petty officer. I was laughing about the 12 Step Program and the fact that I had just found that web site “Are you sorry you voted for Obama” within minutes of each other.
No offense taken. I’m actually sorry that I have voted for Max Bauchus for years. My apologies for that. I voted for the Palin/ McCain ticket. You heard that right. Palin. McCain had been sitting on Teddy Kennedy’s lap for years. Strong and intelligent ladies don’t scare me. Ann Coulter does not offend me. Neither does Bachman from Minnesota.
I wonder if my Military Absentee ballots were ever counted?
Aqua, we are all good here and on the same page Pardner.
Why do I expect these as a lead in every time Obama gets face time on my plasma screen?

At the very least I know where Lenin and Stalin were born and their intentions were clear.
Obama is a Wild Card. His boy Gibbs is laughable. Even Gibbs does not know where Mr. Soeteros is coming from. Baghdad Bod was better scripted.
This is where I came from and then the JFK School for wayward boys after Benning and three degrees later and three wars I am just a retired O-6 herding cattle in Montana making ends meet. I was ranch raised there and boxed in High School. I am 1/4 Sioux and can read, write and like Obama, was never published but never attended an Ivy League School on Affirmative Action Status.
We are all good here Pardner.
Hey Old Trooper…nice to see another Big Sky Country comrade.
@Missy:
Missy…I caught that the other night, but didn’t get to hear it all, company and all that…anyway, thanks for the link, it was nice to hear it in full…and boy oh boy did Miller ever hit the nail on the head!
As he always seems to do so well.
@Diamond Girl:
You are welcome. He really unloaded, first time I saw a bit of hostility in his humor. Hope he doesn’t have any strange accidents, my imagination is causing me to associate nasty Pelosi with contracts and hit men.
So after 8 years of fighting and loss of US and British forces we get this?

It’s one thing to clear out the Taliban for own security but I don’t see why Western taxpayers should pay the bill for reconstruction when this sort of islamic misogynist cr*p get past into law.
Here’s another Big Sky girl. Grew up on the Hi-Line (Highway 2). Left many years ago, but most of my family is still there.
Down with Obama and his criminal czars, appointees, etc.
We need to take our country back.
Just my opinion
Madalyn
Hey Madalyn…
Great meeting ya!
Is Hi-Line Hwy 2 in what part of the state? I’ve never heard it put as ‘Hi-Line’ just curious as MT is so danged big…places I still want to go I haven’t ever made it to yet.
Comment #24 Diamond Girl – I lived between Chester and Havre. Little town called Inverness. My mom was a piano teacher for 50+ years there.
Good to “type” at ya.
