I'm feeling better...

...about life. The new hip has settled into place and I will be going back to work next week. I am glad that I got it done now. At 66 years old, if I waited another 3 or 4 months, I might have got a visit from the, you know, counselor. At one time (pre getting old) I thought that euthenasia might be a good deal. I was young and liberal then. It was pre Vietnam, and I had yet to figure out that I really liked being alive...

I may be working up to pissed off enough to to weigh in on universal health care.

Doing a slow burn in Oklahoma,

There is a...

...university here in Okoahoma that is named after one of my favorite poets, Langston Hughes.


I, Too, Sing America
a poem by by Langston Hughes


I, too, sing America.

I am the darker brother.
They send me to eat in the kitchen
When company comes,
But I laugh,
And eat well,
And grow strong.

Tomorrow,
I'll be at the table
When company comes.
Nobody'll dare
Say to me,
"Eat in the kitchen,"
Then.

Besides,
They'll see how beautiful I am
And be ashamed--

I, too, am America.


Hughes doe not say "African American". We are all American, not Hyphenated American. We have equal opportunity under the law. We are not guaranteed "equal outcome" under the law.

Think about it. Langston Hughes thought about it.

Mrs Frog and I...

...have just returned from a much needed vacation and an opportunity to visit with the Tadpoles and ther grand tadpoles. REFRESHED are we.

I went to a local pond yesterday and made a wonderful discovery. It is more fun to catch a bucket of LARGE Bluegills and Sunfish than it is to not catch Bass, Catfish and Crappies. #1 - inspite of the work invoved the little filets make several wonderful cajun dishes and #2 - that me catching a bunch of fish and having a wonderful time aggravated the snot out of the people the people that were not catching the Bass, Catfish and Crappies. and #3 - It really pissed them off that in the middle of all of this I also caught several keeper size Bass all 3 of which topped the scale at over 3 pounds.

The other fisher folk on the floating pier were getting ouright surly when I left. It was almost as much fun as fun as trying to aggravate people with the weblog.

Welcome to Oz - Swineflu Edition

I can hardly wait for the impending presidential release/statement/news conference concerning a possible Swineflu Pandemic...

1) "We empathsize with the poor, down trodden people of Mexico who are the main victims of this tragic epidemic. We feel for you Amigos..."

2) "Any of you who can make it will be welcomed at hospital emergency rooms in Texas New Mexico, Arizona and California. There you will receive the best care that money can buy. And because I have great empathy for your horrible situation as victims, I personally guarantee that this treatment will be free."

Then the press secretary will say "Thank you Mr. President"

And the news networks will immediately start showing pictures of Federales in Mexico City D.F. handing out surgical masks and then switch to pictures of ill, malnutritioned children who are reportedly dying of Swine Flu.

I feel so much safer here in the Bog

Be very afraid...

THE MUSTANG RANCH AND $750 BILLION BAIL-OUT


Back in 1990 the Government seized the Mustang Ranch brothel in Nevada for tax evasion and, as required by law, tried to run it.


They failed and it closed.


Now, we are trusting the economy of our country and $750 BILLION DOLLARS to a pack of nit-wits who couldn't make money running a whorehouse and selling booze!!!!

Thank you for your participation in this survey. You are now part of a deeper understanding of the relationality of geopolitical and climatological phenomena in areas of Southern Europe that were previously unjustly and illegally dominated by the Roman Empire and the subsequent spatiality of influences of Sharia Law and, possibly, the subtle interplay of these influences with the unjust persecutions perpetrated on the huddled masses by the bloated pandering of an immoral, illegal and societally inept quasireligious Italian organization during the Spanish Inquisition.

a sincere...

... thank you for your interest in and completion of the preceding survey. It should do several things.

#1 - get the Frog hired on at the New York Times as a Science Editor and Opinion Columnist.

#2 - get the Frog put into a high ranking advisory position with the incoming administration in Foggy Boottom (D.C.) as opposed to Muddy Bottom (Bubba's Bog).

#3 - help Brother Al (Gore, not Alligator) pedal some, only slightly used, carbon foot prints down at the Used and New Footprint Lot / Franchise.

#4 - garner a Pulitzer for the Muddy Bottom and Algae Fill Up Institute of Knowlege here in the Bog.

Hope your Christmas was Merry and that your New Year will be bright.

Kermit

P.S. - If you think your opinion counts, feel free to send fillied out copies of the survey to the A TEAM - Nancy (Pelosi), Barney (Frank) and Harry ((blowin' in the wind) Reed).

another bailout...

...with an amazing photograph of government in action.

WASHINGTON - Flanked by officials from the United Elf Toytinkerers union, SantaCorp CEO Kris Kringle today told the House Ways and Means Committee that without immediate government financial help, his firm would be forced to declare bankruptcy, lay off thousands of elves and reindeer, and potentially cancel its annual worldwide Christmas Eve toy delivery.

"These are grim economic times for everyone, but even more so for non-profit toy manufacturers in the Snow Belt," said Kringle. "Our accountants have indicated that we are on track to exhaust our reserves of cash and magical pixie fairydust by December 23. Oh deary me."

Kringle and UET union president Binky McGiggles presented a draft emergency bailout plan to the committee calling for...

I am...

ONE NOVEMBER FOXTROT ONE DELTA THREE LIMA.



We are getting ready for an ice storm that you may have already had or are having even as I write this. Even if you can't figure out the above quote... have a Merry Christmas. Wow... that may be a hidden clue.



The good news is that trunk line gas valves go to open if the power goes out. That is good because, even with electricity out, the stove will still work. More good news is that I found a cheap electric generator that should put out enough electricity to run the gas furnace blower and control circuitry. Gee if the power goes out again this year for 8 days after the ice storm... I will be able to run the furnace at night. I will be able to cook. I will be able to see/read with candles and battery lanterns. Both cars are gassed up.



Life is as good as it gets during winter in Oklahoma.



If the 'puter/electricity goes down... have a blessed Christmas. And, I should be writing something by next year, even if the power does go off.



Peace and all good,



Kermit



P.S. - I just love global warming. Don't you???

Thanksgiving...

The year that is drawing toward its close has been filled with the blessings of fruitful fields and healthful skies. To these bounties, which are so constantly enjoyed that we are prone to forget the source from which they come, others have been added which are of so extraordinary a nature that they can not fail to penetrate and soften even the heart which is habitually insensible to the ever-watchful providence of Almighty God.



In the midst of a civil war of unequaled magnitude and severity, which has sometimes seemed to foreign states to invite and to provoke their aggression, peace has been preserved with all nations, order has been maintained, the laws have been respected and obeyed, and harmony has prevailed everywhere, except in the theater of military conflict, while that theater has been greatly contracted by the advancing armies and navies of the Union.



Needful diversions of wealth and of strength from the fields of peaceful industry to the national defense have not arrested the plow, the shuttle, or the ship; the ax has enlarged the borders of our settlements, and the mines, as well as the iron and coal as of our precious metals, have yielded even more abundantly than heretofore. Population has steadily increased notwithstanding the waste that has been made in the camp, the siege, and the battlefield, and the country, rejoicing in the consciousness of augmented strength and vigor, is permitted to expect continuance of years with large increase of freedom.


No human counsel hath devised nor hath any mortal hand worked out these great things. They are the gracious gifts of the Most High God, who, while dealing with us in anger for our sins, hath nevertheless remembered mercy.


It has seemed to me fit and proper that they should be solemnly, reverently, and gratefully acknowledged, as with one heart and one voice, by the whole American people. I do therefore invite my fellow-citizens in every part of the United States, and also those who are in foreign lands, to set apart and observe the last Thursday of November next as a day of thanksgiving and praise to our beneficent Father who dwelleth in the heavens. And I recommend to them that while offering up the ascriptions justly due to Him for such singular deliverances and blessings they do also, with humble penitence for our national perverseness and disobedience, commend to His tender care all those who have become widows, orphans, mourners, or sufferers in the lamentable civil strife in which we are unavoidably engaged, and fervently implore the imposition of the Almighty hand to heal the wounds of the nation and to restore it, as soon as may be consistent with the divine purpose, to the full enjoyment of peace, harmony, tranquillity, and union.



In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed.

William Seward – Secretary of State

I am so glad...

...that I voted for the only qualified Democrat that ran for president...


Viva
JOHN McCAIN

Maybe the sky is not falling...

...and maybe some big pieces will not land in the bog. And, maybe, the tooth fairy will leave a dime (that is $837.63 when adjusted for future inflation) under Kermit's pillow tomorrow night.

Somehow, it seems to this Constitutional Populist that the fox has been put fully in charge of the henhouse. The founders of our nation (you know... smart... dead... old guys... referred to in some quaint and ancient texts that purport to be HISTORICAL as the "founding fathers") railed against the concept of a federal / national bank. The silly twits even put it into that quaint, quasi hysterical document referred to as the constitution. Well, actually, they did not make it constitutional. That was done in 1913 and signed into law by the late (also an old dead guy) Woodrow Wilson, who depending on the historian that you quote, may or may not have regretted signing that particular quasi legal bill into law as he approached the end of his life.

Now what is all this bovine extract about the sky falling.

The head director of the largest FEDERAL RESERVE BANK is being named as the SECRETARY of the TREASURY.

Somehow, cherished reader, I see the fox guarding the chickens here. I will pray, fervently, that we have ONLY a long and gut wrenching depression. I will continue to pray that we will not wake up one morning clutching our pitchforks as we man the barricades in defense of our homes against foreign troops in the streets.

Thank God for zip loc bags.

I am keeping my powder dry here in the bog!

I keep feeling...


…older and older. It may be the weather, but I doubt that.


One of the quaint old (??!!:) notions that I am stuck with is that the purpose of the Constitution is to limit the size of the government. I do not remember that I was ever taught that purpose of the Constitution was to define how fast the government could grow.


Now I remember. The Government exists to serve the people. How quaint. The people, if I remember correctly, were not designed by their creator to serve the ruling class of professional bureaucrats. Something or another about inalienable rights springs (well-stumbles) to the forefront of my diminished (as opposed to DHIMMI) cranial cell’s capacity for abstract ideas.


I am standing here in the farmyard staring up at the side of the barn. The words say…


“All animals are equal, except some animals are more equal than others”.


Wowee… We may be on to something here! But I have the nagging sensation that there used to be more words than that written on the barn. Maybe I should go take another dose of the medicine that the doctor at the V.A. Clinic gave me. Things are always better after I do that. After all, “A gram is better than a damn.”


Groggily yours,


Kermit

THE DEATH OF THE AMERICAN IDEA - Steyn on America



Saturday, 15 November 2008
http://www.steynonline.com/content/view/1477/




"Give me liberty or give me death!" "Live free or die!"



What's that? Oh, don't mind me. I'm just trying out slogans for the 2012 campaign and seeing which one would get the biggest laughs.



My Republican friends are now saying, oh, not to worry, look at the exit polls, this is still a "center-right" country. Americans didn't vote to go left, they voted to go cool. It was a "Dancing With The Stars" election: Obama's a star, and everyone wants to dance with him. It doesn't mean they're suddenly gung-ho for left-wingery.



Up to a point.



Unlike those excitable countries where the peasants overrun the presidential palace, settled democratic societies rarely vote to "go left." Yet oddly enough that's where they've all gone. In its assumptions about the size of the state and the role of government, almost every advanced nation is more left than it was, and getting lefter.

When there is nothing to hide...

...hide nothing!

This ranks right up there with


RIDE HARD
SHOOT STRAIGHT
SPEAK TRUTH
If Mr. O, the President Elect, has or knows of a document thats proves his birthright as a citizen of the United States of America, why is he not trotting it out at at this late date or when it first became a question when he chose to run for the presidency.
I may be green in all my frogishness, but...
I AM AN AMERICAN.
I CAN DOCUMENT IT.
AND, I DID FIGHT FOR IT...
...both in Viet Nam and
in more than one really nasty bar
at home and abroad!
So, as soon as Mr. O proofs up on his place of birth, I can invite a few Pinko Libs down to the front gate of the Bog. I'll have Al Vin build a little bonfire. And, we can all roast some bogmallows, hold hands and sing Kumbuyah.

What is God???

Contrary to Opra Winfrey and some misguided folk of the Religious Left...


God is
RIGHTEOUSNESS!
For those of you that are without children, or were raised to believe that if it does not make you feel good it cannot be called love, the statement above may not make sense. You may not fully understand the concept of love. Even the farthest left, most theologically ignorant of folk need to consider that...
God is
OUR FATHER.
Even left wingers that screw up have to pay the piper. That's what you do when you want to dance. You pay the piper. To use a more modern turn of words... You are responsible for what you do. No excuses, no poor me. Even the most ardent Dr. Phil advocates may have heard the term "tough love". Oh, does that sound like paying the piper? If Daddy fixes every screw up, we never learn and we never change.
God wants us to change our ways
REPENT!
The Father of the Prodigal Son did not go and fish his son out of tth pig sty when the son was wallowing with the hogs and eating husks. The rejoicing took place when the Prodigal Son repented and came home.
God is not love,
but...
GOD LOVES US!
Which is why the path back to God, the path to righteousness is never closed to us.
Here ends Kermit's sermon.
Peace be with you.

The Real Obama—From Someone Who Knows


Friday, October 24, 2008Illinois State Rifle Association Executive Director Richard Pearson Issues Open Letter to Nation's Sportsmen Regarding Obama's TRUE History in the Illinois Senate


We've repeatedly warned readers not to believe Barack Obama when he claims to support our Second Amendment rights. We have told you the truth--that Barack Obama is the most anti-gun presidential candidate in American history! Hands down. No question. Barack Obama opposes the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding, freedom-loving, American firearm owners.We've given the facts, and provided the documentation. But if you know someone who's still not convinced, you'll want to share with them a recent, open letter to our nation's gun owners, hunters, and sportsmen, written by Illinois State Rifle Association (ISRA) Executive Director Richard Pearson.


Pearson's credentials include deep involvement in the firearm rights movement for more than 40 years. He's been the chief lobbyist for the ISRA for the past 15 years. And, most importantly, because of his personal experience, he knows Barack Obama's true stance on the Second Amendment.


In his letter, Mr. Pearson says, "I lobbied Barack Obama extensively while he was an Illinois State Senator. As a result of that experience, I know Obama's attitudes toward guns and gun owners better than anyone. The truth be told, in all my years in the Capitol I have never met a legislator who harbors more contempt for the law-abiding firearm owner than does Barack Obama."


Mr. Pearson goes on to describe just some of Obama's anti-gun voting record, saying, "While a state senator, Obama voted for a bill that would ban nearly every hunting rifle, shotgun and target rifle owned by Illinois citizens. That same bill would authorize the state police to raid homes of gun owners to forcibly confiscate banned guns."


Obama also voted FOUR TIMES against legislation that would protect a homeowner who use a firearm in defense of home and family!


It doesn't get much plainer than that, folks. This letter is a must-read for every pro-freedom, pro-self-defense, pro-Second Amendment American.To read the entire letter, please click here.


Then be sure to forward the link to every Second Amendment supporter you know. The truth about Obama's stance on firearms and the Second Amendment needs to be told—again!


To see Obama's whole record for yourself, please visit www.GunBanObama.com.

In the bunker...

...in the swamp, protected by Al Vin at the front gate, and hunkered down with my Guns and my bible. Here comes a bit of a warning...

Hey butt head...
I vote first and I shoot second.
I do both!!!
