			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I know, lets pull out the WAR ON WOMEN spin cycle!  Time to pit the bitter liberal shrews to talk down to those stupid fat stay at home moms that just need to fall into the Democratic Collectivism and be ashamed in silence of their pathetic failures but tow the DNC voting line loyally.   Maybe then those mindless cows not worthy of the real liberal intelligentsia will finally shut up and be obedient  slaves .</p>
<p><a href="http://pissedofftreerat.files.wordpress.com/2012/04/wow.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-5388" title="wow" src="http://pissedofftreerat.files.wordpress.com/2012/04/wow.jpg?w=300&h=225" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<p>Hell, at least we don&#8217;t have to listen to the media talk about: the insane Obamacare costs skyrocketing and doubling endlessly, $4+ gas, every aspect of our fuzzy foreign policy imploding, Congress not passing a budget in 3 years but continuing to plunge deeper into this insane deficit spending and now refusing to even try to do their jobs, The walking Dead is off the air till October (DAMN IT!),  every race baiting scumbag from the 70s has crawled out of their pits to inciting violence and relishing in their efforts to push race relation backwards 40 years, the and unemployment numbers only go down when the White House comes out with a &#8220;new formula&#8221; to compute the &#8220;actual&#8221; unemployment data.</p>
<p>Ugh.  Good thing we have this manufactured &#8220;war on women&#8221; to keep us drones distracted for all that other stupid stuff.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here&#8217;s my simple statement to Maryland State and it&#8217;s Liberal fiscally insane politicians &#8221;Frank you!  Are you kidding?!&#8221;</p>
<p>What is the source of my ire today?  Vehicle registration and Maryland tax monstrosities.  Federal taxes my ass.  The state liberal politicians of Maryland are violating the working class to appease their leach money sucking &#8220;takers&#8221; of their entitlement demanding voter base.  Kansas vehicle registration for my 2 vehicles was a grand total of $90.  Now take the great state of Maryland&#8230;&#8230; drum roll please&#8230;&#8230;&#8230; $600!  For an 11 year old minivan and a 7 year old truck.  When I paid the clerk my tax bill she actually said &#8220;Welcome to Maryland Sir&#8221;.  I stared at her for a second then asked her if she was kidding me with that statement.  She replied no and said quietly she was kind of embarrassed for even saying it and told me the taxes are only going up more soon.   Obama can keep his fraking $40 payroll bullshit.  I want this blue state tax nightmare fixed.  These bullshit liberals talk about the &#8220;middle class&#8221; like they&#8217;re looking out for us.  Close you ears little readers  &#8220;FUCK YOU!&#8221;  you condescending bullshit liars and keep you hand out of my damn pocket for one fraking day so I can pay Obama&#8217;s flipping gas bill.  Piss off, I&#8217;m in a mood you liberal pandering jackass liberals.  Grow some balls and tell people to man the frak up and finally admit the individual is responsibly for taking care of their damn selves already.  Maryland Governor Martin O&#8217;Malley and his Highwaymen cronies can suck it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2 style="text-align:center;">YOU SUCK!</h2>
<p>With an astounding display of consistency you have failed to get me my absentee ballot to vote for the 5th straight time.  If your standards hold true my ballot will get here in about 3 days from now.  I jumped through every stupid bureaucratic hoop on time and perfectly filled out.  Hell, I even called you.  TWICE!  Yet you failed me again.  Did I say &#8220;<strong>You suck</strong>&#8221; yet?  At least I anticipated your failure and again sent in my Federal Write-in Absentee Ballot (FWAB) on time.  People get pissed when asked for an ID to vote, but for me it appears I need a damn lawyer to remind you of my rights.  Guess I&#8217;m taking a week off work and driving across the country to vote this November.  I&#8217;m sure as hell not chancing that one.  Worthless bureaucratic pukes.  Anyone getting the idea this pisses me off?  You should.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:left;">For my non-Facebook followers, I do a daily drive-by quote  on the page there.  No real context is given with the quote except the occasional bridge to a pet peeve of mine or recent political event associated to a historical event.   In looking for today&#8217;s quote I started with more editorial from me than normal so I decide to post on my prime site as today&#8217;s blog post vs. a Facebook drive-by status update.</p>
<p style="padding-left:30px;">The legacy of Democrats and Republicans approaches: Libertarianism by bankruptcy. – Nick Nuessle, 1992</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">       What I took away from this quote today was the date.   Social-Political cause and effect is measured in decades. We&#8217;re now so deep into the obvious impacts of the decades of wasteful and irresponsible Congressional spending that generational mortgaging for vote getting social programs can no longer be ignored by even the world&#8217;s most inept accountant.   Congress can no longer pay for the promises they have made over the past decades, or the ones they continue to make.   They know we have to begin the painful process of massive program cutting to even keep the country solvent.  Yet they continue to smile and promise to feed the social program beast at every campaign stop.  &#8221;We can afford it all!&#8221; they chant while explaining how their 1+1 math formula really equals -1 with deficit reduction and even more yummy benefits for the beast.  They know their lying, we know they&#8217;re lying but they just can&#8217;t stop and we are the voter enablers.  It&#8217;s as if Congress has become a fiscal heroin addict.  They know it&#8217;s wrong and bemoan it all.  They will cry rivers of tears on how it&#8217;s irresponsibly and how the &#8220;other party&#8221; is to blame and must be voted out of office for the good of the nation.  But like an addict, they will turn their back on you as soon as possible and go right back to shooting up your money again.  The cycle continues.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">So the problem we have now is how do we fix the fiscal irresponsibility of our government when society has itself become addicts of government social engineering programs and fiscal slaves?</p>

<p>My response you ask?  Frak it.  Go hull defilade around our borders, tie in tight with Canada, then sit it all out for 20 years.  The thankless bastards of the world can fend for themselves as we re-focus our economy, and society, while building 20 meter tall Combat Mechs to defend our borders as we push finally to settle beyond Terra Firma.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I hope to GOD that these folks clean house of their idiot political appointees the day after the next inauguration.   They have to know what complete moronic jackasses they&#8217;ve become by accusing essentially everyone in America, that does not think the Government is the swellest gee golly most most efficient and effecting thing a going, is some form a ticking time bomb of violence.  I speak for experience as one who will openly admit to having been a moronic jackass on occasion but never on my job.</p>
<p style="padding-left:30px;"><a href="http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/02/07/us-usa-fbi-extremists-idUSTRE81600V20120207">FBI being dumb asses political stooges.  </a> (Reuters) &#8211; Anti-government extremists opposed to taxes and regulations pose a growing threat to local law enforcement officers in the United States, the FBI warned on Monday.</p>
<p style="padding-left:30px;">These extremists, sometimes known as &#8220;sovereign citizens,&#8221; believe they can live outside any type of government authority, FBI agents said at a news conference.</p>
<p style="padding-left:30px;">The extremists may refuse to pay taxes, defy government environmental regulations and believe the United States went bankrupt by going off the gold standard.</p>
<p style="padding-left:30px;">Routine encounters with police can turn violent &#8220;at the drop of a hat,&#8221; said Stuart McArthur, deputy assistant director in the FBI&#8217;s counterterrorism division.</p>
<p style="padding-left:30px;">&#8220;We thought it was important to increase the visibility of the threat with state and local law enforcement,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>Now that I think about it&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230; when I had to work with the Feebs in the field they we&#8217;re standard politically centric then too.  I think they lost a step or two when Scully and Mulder decided to move to the private sector.  Such a shame and waste of a good Feedie team.</p>

<p>Had to add a gratuitous Gillian Anderson pic below cause I always thought she was kinda hot and I&#8217;m soooo not above doing that.  Just don&#8217;t tell Linda Carter OK?  See&#8217;s still The POTR&#8217;s #1 babe.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I was thinking about my Democratic friends today.  Yes, I do have a few.  I was thinking about how the Republicans get to watch this endless self flagellation of our candidates.  Yet after the primary is done we&#8217;re supposed to patch up the battered and bloody candidate and run him/her nationally.  Idiotic, but it is at least a chance for us to make a choice on more that one candidate.  You my Democratic friends do not this year.  The DNC has decided for you that you don&#8217;t get to vote for a candidate.  Your presidential candidate has been pre-selected for you by the Party and not by a single voter.  Oh well, the RNC screws over it&#8217;s folks like that too, but I&#8217;m not pushing 3rd party votes yet.  I am pushing the fact that this November IS your first chance to vote.  I hope by now that you&#8217;ve reconsidered voting for the Master of Duplicity again.</p>
<p style="padding-left:30px;">&#8220;There is not a liberal America and a conservative America &#8211; there is the United States of America. There is not a black America and a white America and latino America and asian America &#8211; there&#8217;s the United States of America.&#8221; &#8211; Barack Obama 2004 Democratic National Convention</p>

<p style="padding-left:30px;">So it’s not surprising then that they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations. - Barack Obama, Apr 2008 Bitter Pennsylvanians Speech</p>

<p style="padding-left:30px;">Manual for Court Martial, 2002, Chapter 4, Paragraph 28</p>
<p style="padding-left:30px;">Article 104—Aiding the enemy</p>
<p style="padding-left:30px;">“Any person who—</p>
<p style="padding-left:30px;">(1) aids, or attempts to aid, the enemy with arms, ammunition, supplies, money, or other things; or</p>
<p style="padding-left:30px;">(2) without proper authority, knowingly harbors or protects or gives intelligence to or communicates or corresponds with or holds any intercourse with the enemy, either directly or indirectly; shall suffer death or such other punishment as a court-martial or military commission may direct.”</p>
<p>I say we sell raffle tickets to anyone who served in Iraq or Afghanistan.  One dollar each for the chance to be randomly drawn to be on this turn-coats firing squad.  The DoD could make MILLIONS!  I&#8217;ll buy the first twenty bucks worth&#8230;&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After the 12 months of suck that was &#8220;2011&#8243; I just have to say, <strong>FRAK IT AND BRING IT ON 2012.</strong></p>
<p>We are gonna have it all, you Freaks, and you know what we can take it.  We are the steel that will bend but not break.  We will stand the line and hold back the hordes of Chaos at our gate.</p>
<p>We will stride across the world with beers and black rifles in hand laughing in the face of absurdity.</p>
<p>Stock up for the ends of times cause we got:</p>
<p>1.  Election mayhem</p>
<p>2.  New North Korean government changes (with nukes)</p>
<p>3.  Iranian mass psychosis of the Lost Imam who-fell-down-a-well-or-something (with nukes)</p>
<p>4.  Mayan Apocalypse countdown</p>
<p>5.  Dissolution of the EU</p>
<p>6.  Iraq&#8217;s civil war</p>
<p>7.  Syrian civil war</p>
<p>8.  Unemployment / social malaise / and fiscal insecurities translating into urban violace</p>
<p>9.  Rising fuel prices and continued American refusal to develop our own natural resources till it&#8217;s jut too damn late.</p>
<p>10.  The Zombies are coming&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;. So be prepared or be eaten.</p>
