Crimmins, How does it feel to wake up next to this?
Posted by: | Comments
Last week it was divulged that good ole’ happy days star, Scott Baio had called the FBI because of death threats on the internet found in the site called Twitter.com. He had provided a picture of our esteemed President’s wife that didn’t show her in a good light. I’m sure it happens to everyone. The caption read, “How does it feel to wake up next to this…”.Story here.
Now I’m sure we all have had our moments and got caught in the wrong light at times. I know I have.
Now imagine. You belong to a government entity and are in the public eye for hours at a time. You would want to make sure you are at your best, right. Now image that is your wife. Image you work on a government payroll as well. Image you work for the Hudson School District as a liaison officer, someone who hasn’t enough credentials to get a real police job. Imagine your name is Mark Crimmins.
Now image having to wake up next to Cindy every morning. Yes officer Mark Crimmins, how does it feel to wake up next to that?

Yes, that is 80 million.
(B) The number of accidental gun deaths per year, all age groups, is 1,500.
(C) The number of accidental deaths per gun owner is 0.000188.
Statistically, doctors are approximately 9,000 times more dangerous than gun owners.
Remember, “Guns don’t kill people, doctors do.”
FACT: NOT EVERYONE HAS A GUN, BUT ALMOST EVERYONE HAS AT LEAST ONE DOCTOR.

Posted by: | CommentsMore states flexing their States rights.
This week in the Missouri state Capitol, a large rally was held in favor of defending state sovereignty. Rep. Tim Jones and Senator Jane Cunningham spoke about their respective bills filed to protect Missourians right to choose their own healthcare and not be forced into the federal governments plan under threat of fines or imprisonment. This centralization of more and more power in Washington D.C. is fostering a citizens movement to understand and defend personal liberty and the federalist principle of state sovereignty – a governing principle captured eloquently in the 10th amendment to the U.S. Constitution: The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
Carnac – St. Croix County’s Government Worst Nightmare

Looks who’s back.
Hey You All in St. Croix County… I’m Back
Posted by: | Comments
Yes, It’s true. I’ve returned to educate the citizens of St. Croix County about the unconstitutional underbelly of their local government. The government types have found it their privy to spend and raise hard working citizens taxes unconstitutionally (YOURS), when there are record numbers in foreclosures, property devaluation, layoffs, and unemployment.
Did you see your last property tax bill? The government’s ever increasing confiscation of citizen’s personal property via taxation (which most even don’t understand how they occur) infringe upon the rights of citizens to do what they want with their own property, their liberty at the expense of their socialistic ideal of the common good, and their mandate to fund socialistic ideals they may not agree with at the point of cohesion (jail via the tax code), is shining bright. Many of the government ilk are even raising their own salaries with NO input from you. In fact, it won’t even be allowed to be debated. They will easily be exposed. Stay tuned… I will reveal all.

Carbon Dioxide — Summary at CO2 Science
A Question of Quantities
Posted by: | CommentsEven IF CO2 were an issue (which it is certainly not), one cannot avoid the obvious…. Another moronic move by George W. Bush who pushed for the Energy Bill that committed all of us to this nonsense…
‘. . . A gallon of gasoline contains 124,262 British Thermal Units (BTUs) of energy, and the weight of carbon dioxide produced by burning a gallon of gasoline is 19.56 pounds. A gallon of ethanol biofuel contains 76,000 BTUs, only 61% of the energy of gasoline, and the weight of carbon dioxide produced by burning a gallon of ethanol biofuel is 12.57 pounds. If ethanol biofuel is used to travel a distance requiring 124,262 BTUs of energy, the same distance a gallon of gasoline would travel, it would require 1.64 gallons of ethanol biofuel, with 20.55 pounds of carbon dioxide emitted into the air. Thus, using ethanol biofuel instead of a gallon of gasoline will emit about a pound more of carbon dioxide into the air.’

Reflections Upon Haiti
Posted by: | CommentsHaiti is a country choked full of mystics including Roman Catholics (the official religion), Protestants, and the default national religion: voodoo. Pat Robertson just recently indicated he believed that the earthquake in Haiti was likely the result of a deal Haitians made with the devil (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5TE99sAbwM). Moreover, Robertson suggested that this massive earthquake (a natural phenomena) was a “blessing in disguise.”
This event (the earthquake) should reveal the utter idiocy and waste associated with mysticism of all varieties. Had Haitians lived a rational existence, my suspicion is that their economic connections and infrastructure development would have been such that although still likely devastating the loss of life would have likely been much less, and the rebuilding a far less complex burden on those who are now responding to Haiti’s desperate cry’s. The long tail on this is yet to be revealed, but you can almost bet it will develop far beyond merely pulling people out of rubble, fixing broken bones and downed power lines, and burying the dead.
Empathy towards innocent casualties of this event is, in my view, a valid reaction. Moreover, if one has the ability, and there are no other options (presently, it appears massive collectivized aid is streaming into Haiti), it is reasonable to help those who are truly innocent casualties. But separating those from others who purposefully lived and promoted the irrational belief that mysticism would protect them from all threats (man-made and natural) is not easy to do. To the extent one can, one should assist only in helping those who were not engaged in such behavior, for to do so threatens all of us with the idea that self sacrifice propelled by misplaced guilt can force one (or a whole nation) to subsidize the logical outcome of such irrational and illogical belief systems…
I am and will remain opposed to all man-made religion and the cults they spawn. What remains is the world around me, and the tools it offers to live, trade, and prosper. I always have assisted those in true need when I have come upon them, to the best of my ability. I will not subsidize or enable the furtherance of any religion, or the cults they spawn.

Dr. Roy Spencer writes (yesterday):
Any way you look at it, the evidence for internally-forced climate change is pretty clear. Based upon this satellite evidence alone, I do not see how the IPCC can continue to ignore internally-forced variations in the climate system. The evidence for its existence is there for all to see, and in my opinion, the IPCCs lack of diagnostic skill in this matter verges on scientific malpractice.
