DEMOC RATS UGH! A List That Explains Most Everything...

This DemocRat converted, just 20 million more
  When your friends cannot explain why they voted for Democrats, give
them this list.
     
        They can then pick their reasons from this "TOP 12"...
     
       1. I voted Democrat because I believe oil companies' profits of 4%
on a gallon of gas are obscene, but the government taxing the same gallon of
gas at 15% isn't.
     
       2. I voted Democrat because I believe the government will do a
better job of spending the money I earn than I would.
     
       3. I voted Democrat because Freedom of Speech is fine as long as
nobody is offended by it.
     
       4. I voted Democrat because I'm way too irresponsible to own a gun,
and I know that my local police are all I need to protect me from murderers
and thieves.
     
       5. I voted Democrat because I believe that people who can't tell us
if it will rain on Friday can tell us that the polar ice caps will melt away
in ten years if I don't start driving a Prius.
     
       6. I voted Democrat because I'm not concerned about millions of
babies being aborted so long as we keep all death row inmates alive.
     
       7. I voted Democrat because I think illegal aliens have a right to
free health care, education, and Social Security benefits.
     
       8. I voted Democrat because I believe that business should not be
allowed to make profits for themselves. They need to break even and give the
rest away to the government for redistribution as the Democrats see fit.
     
       9. I voted Democrat because I believe liberal judges need to rewrite
the Constitution every few days to suit some fringe kooks who would never
get their agendas past the voters.
     
       10. I voted Democrat because I think that it's better to pay
billions to people who hate us for their oil, but not drill our own because
it might upset some endangered beetle or gopher.
     
       11. I voted Democrat because while we live in the greatest, most
wonderful country in the world, I was promised "HOPE AND CHANGE".
     
       12. I voted Democrat because my head is so firmly planted up my ass,
it's unlikely that I'll ever have another point of view.

Spring 2011?

Lake Ouachita park & marina

I wonder if it's Spring or not.  It seems like Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall, sometimes all in one day.
I've had a chance to ride the bike to some of my favorite spots.
We're at the NCAA final 4, what will go on in Libya,  Politics as usual.
LARAMIE, Wyo. – Conservative commentator Ann Coulter shrugged off a few hecklers and took aim at liberals and President Barack Obama during her University of Wyoming speech intended to counterbalance an appearance at the school last year by a former 1960s radical.

Why I retired to Arkansas

I was born, raised, worked, married & had my children in Illinois.
I retired to Arkansas (Hot Springs Village ASAP).
At least the mob gives you something for your money.
The Illinois Tax Man does not.
The list, with Illinois leading the pack, comes from website TopRetirements.com. According to John Brady, president of TopRetirements.com, the 10 states earn this dubious distinction largely because of three factors: fiscal health, taxation, climate.
People of Illinois, California, New York, Rhode Island, New Jersey, Ohio, Wisconsin, Massachusetts, Connecticut and Nevada — you probably already know the answer.  soure: by Robert Powell, MarketWatch  Sunday, December 19, 2010 

I like our weather (4 seasons - short winter) lakes, golf courses, rivers, woods & mountains to name but a few. (posted by a friend of H.R.'s)
