Aiming
To Please
I
wrote today's cartoon after reading about the man in
Liege, Belgium who went berserk and killed five people,
injuring 132 others (at last count).
My knee-jerk reaction is, of course, "Take ALL the guns!", but I realize that
most gun owners are sensible humans and that the only ones they'll ever kill
are themselves or friends and family.
Statistically speaking, of course.
As
today's cartoon points out there are many worse things you can do than buy a
gun, one
of which is to buy a t-shirt like the one above. Honestly, is there any better
way to
tell a bad guy to "Shoot Me First"?
Stay safe out there.

The Gingrich tax plan is a total give-away
to the rich and would result in trillion-dollar deficits.
But that's the Republican way.

Republican Job Creation Update
"We're
going to have a
relentless focus on creating jobs." -
John Boehner, February
10, 2011.
The following is #121 in a
list of Republican
job creation activities
since they gained
control of the
House in 2011.
None,
sad
to
say,
have
yet to result in
one, single new
job.
(121) 12-14-2011: The House spent the day passing a
payroll tax-cut extension bill which, because it's
packed to the gills with poison pills, has no chance
of escaping the Senate alive. The little bastards knew
it and passed the bill anyway just so they can say
the Democrats vetoed a payroll tax-cut bill.
NOTE: As a result of an unexpected wave of enthusiasm
the Republican
Job Creation update now
has its own web site. It will
remain
on the RP but
a web site of its own will raise
its visibility on the 'net as
we progress towards the critical
2012 elections. And I thank you
for your support.
