The O in NOAA is for oceanic. There is an enforcement arm of the National Marine Fisheries Service stuffed in there somewhere.

So not necessarily the weather police.

If, God forbid, the Hildabeast wins, it will be because the stupid bastards out there who voted for her – and obozo in 2008 – are beyond salvation and, ergo, AMERICA — the IDEA — is DEAD and our slow descent into the dustbin of history has reached its destination.

Ya’ know, as I wrote that, a thought again crossed my alleged mind that often nagged me during the 40+ years I’ve spent away from making a living, enjoying my family, boating, going to the beach, etc.:  Are these stupid bastards who waved their hand dismissively and smirked when I tried to tell them that we’d wind up in a very bad place if we didn’t pay more attention to our civic affairs WORTH THE EFFORT? 

But I always came back to the reality that I was — and my dozens of like-minded friends were — doing this for OUR loved ones.  If we succeeded and millions of the  disconnected, uninvolved bastards who hadn’t lifted a hand or, worse, were, themselves, part of the problem, were dragged along, so be it.

Let me conclude this with two quotes and a short video I made.

“A nation of well-informed men, who have been taught to know and to prize the rights God has given them, cannot be enslaved.  IT IS IN THE REGION OF IGNORANCE THAT TYRANNY BEGINS.”  Benjamin Franklin

“As life is action and passion, it is required of a man that he be involved in the action and passion of his time LEST HE BE JUDGED NEVER TO HAVE LIVED”.  Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.

And the foolish little video:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lIo8FJJMps8
(There were audible guffaws from the audience around 1:31.  They didn’t believe Newt either.)

PS: I’m pretty sure that Trump locked this thing up on 6/12 and believe that one or two more Orlandos will render the coup-de-grace to the Hildabeast.

Just in case the tax slaves decide to revolt.

Now shut up taxpayers and go make US some money, millions of illegals, gibmedats, government lackeys, and crony welchs need that money.

Me, too. I recently had a conversation with my older brother (a Socialist, but a nice guy). I said something about the threat from Radical Islam and he said ‘I don’t believe that. I don’t believe it will ever be a problem for me’. And I said, ‘I suspect the people in San Bernardino thought the same way’. And he said ‘San Bernardino?’ This was just in February. He had heard about the FBI trying to get into a guy’s IPhone, but he hadn’t heard about the terrorist attack by the same guy before Christmas. They are all listening to the sycophant Media and not getting most of the terrifying stories that the rest of us know. LOW INFO VOTERS......the Dem party relies on them.

You'd think the Coast Guard could do that, but they're too busy harassing recreational boaters with random boarding. But OK, we need more cops, we need cops to watch us 24/7, watch what we buy, watch what we read, watch what we post on FR and stuff like that. We need to live just like the book 1984!

But hey! We're there, a little late, but we're there.

Because they abuse power, are an operative for a politician against his enemies. So they can intimidate and put you in your place if they choose to. Get back to you.I may think of some others.

These weapons are needed to ensure a smooth transition into Obie’s third term.

Sorry about your brother. We’re from Cleveland with roots in southern Ohio. If you’re still up there, keep trying to reach the NOLOs. It’s our only hope. Guess it IS worth the effort. We have no choice!

So the IRS wants to shoot the golden goose?

Note to IRS: There are more of us than there are of you. Choose your weapons accordingly.
