Why? Some of you may ask
Do I have such contempt for such a large cross section of humanity? Why so little of the milk of human kindness flows through me for them?
Stories like THIS are why!
I was just surfing the web and scrolling through my FB wall when I found that story. Now I'm so pissed I can't sleep. My mind filled with very dark thoughts of what I'd like to do, to someone who could do what they've done to a child. Now in all fairness the mother may, I say may, be under the dominance of the boyfriend...but I have my doubts. Another article I found suggests that according to the hospital staff there's wounds that would suggest this has been going on for quite some time. I can't get the damn page where the article is, to load all the sudden. PITA.
I'm now going to end this brief entry, shut the computer down and try and relax so I can sleep. I have entirely too much shit to do later in the morning to be up all night.

I now return you to your regularly scheduled...ahh fuck it. I leave you to clean up the puke from your floor after reading this story.

Black Friday....
*Warning...there will be some cussing. So if you're the kind that's easily offended then
I suggest that you pack up your hankies and take your asses back to namby pamby land little ladies!*
Oh how I despise Black Friday. Aside from the fact I think it's stupid, and is part of the massive over commercialization of a holiday? The holiday being Christmas. Your favorite bad tempered wolf worked retail for 10 long years. I had to work it every year for those 10 long years. It just proves to yours truly that people are stupid animals. Watch how Vulture like they are, in setting up in tents outside various stores. In the following case here in Texas....... 5 FULL FUCKING DAYS BEFORE FRIDAY! (hat tip to my friend Robbie over at Urban Grounds for this one]
Now witness how like sheep they are as they flow into a store in droves...
Now witness how Hyena like they are, fighting over or to get to, whatever the hottest deal is...in this case a cellphone at wally world..
This crowd of crows at Thousand Oaks Mall in Thousand Oaks California for the midnight opening of Urban Outfitters.
Back to walmart for cattle getting their Towels and bedding..
Or this pack of ravening teenage female Hyenas outside a Victoria's Secret store...
What the hell is wrong with you people! You're acting like a bunch of mindless animals over things!
Most of which I'll point out, that you don't really need! Hell some of these stores didn't just open at Midnight....some of them opened during the DAY on Thanksgiving Day! What the fuck?! So really, what's you're excuse? Oh wait you can get that cellphone for 96 cents? Well golly gee beaver I didn't realize that slap me and call me stupid. No wait...slap YOURSELF you blathering idiot. You can get a cell phone for free simply by signing a 2 year contract to whatever service it's tethered to. Or...since that phone was a pre paid no contract phone...you're likely only saving about $28 since most of those phones are $30...yippee fucking shit! Now...here's a question...did you absolutely NEED that cellphone? Wait...you've already got a great cellphone but decided to get another one because"it was such a great deal"? Well then...congratulations! You've just proven yourself to be the mindless, easily led around by the nose COW the advertiser thought you to be!
Oh but there was a great deal on a TV? Did you really need that TV? No...you've got a great one at home that's only 2yrs old and it's a brand name? Well congratu fucking lations! You've just bought no name cheap ass TV because you were told to. Stupid sheep! Here's a novel concept. If you've a Kmart or Walmart nearby people...Kmart as far as I know still has layaway year round...you could have bought yourself a brand name tv and put it on layaway and paid it off over the course of a couple months. Hell you could have done that at WALMART...but only since october or september when they start up the layaway program temporarily to help people get ready for christmas. Wait...you say the store you're shopping at doesn't have layaway? Com 'ere Wilbur...let me tell you a secret. It's called save up the money for whatever it is you are wanting, over the period of a couple of weeks or months...and then go buy it. BTW you do realize those TV's everyone is all excited over, there's only a few of them per store and they're only in there to draw people IN ,so they spend money right? "But but...Woolllffff it was a brand name TV for a great price." Oh that makes it alright then. You do realize you probably could have gotten the exact same TV for about the same price on Amazon or NewEgg or one of those websites right? ***grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr*
*looks up* Gimme strength to resist, big guy. Or I'm going hurt someone because they're terminally stupid,

Gun Control Doesn't Work.
Why? Because all it does is make more helpless victims for the criminal class and for those that refuse to abide by it because they'd rather be freemen...makes criminals of law abiding citizens.
Case in point..London 8 days ago..
A group of axe and baseball bat wielding thugs drove into a local shopping mall, up the steps to the second floor and they then proceeded to smash cases at a jewelry store and rob the store blind. What did everyone do? Well...the citizens of the city ran like rabbits, because THAT is what their government has trained them to be...timid little rabbits that run at the first sign of trouble..seeing as they have no weapons to defend themselves with and no ethos of being freemen and defending their fellow man anymore it seems. What did the the rest of the SHOP owners do? They pulled down their gates and quaked in terror til after it was over.. AGAIN, like the timid little rabbits their government and society has trained them to be. We free men, We citizens, We gun owners keep saying the sentence I opened this post with, over, and over, and over, and over again. Trying to beat it through thick skulls that you can either be free men or you can be slaves. You can be wolves, you can be sheepdogs or you can be sheep led to the slaughter.
The above link doesn't just make me angry...it makes me very, very sad...as it's the direction we here in America seem to be heading. We've got our wolves in the criminal class, we've got the rabbits that constitute a good portion of our society...they tend to be liberals and be terrified of guns or irrationally hate guns for no reason whatsoever. And we have the sheepdogs. Citizens who would rather fight, to drive back the wolves...rather than cower in terror. But the Wolves and the Sheep are in control because the SHEEP put the WOLVES there. Out of fear, out of anger, out of sheer sheepish herd behavior stupidity. It is as the sheepdogs of the world and of the U.S keep trying to tell you..we're willing to defend you sheep...if you sheep will just stop trying to pull our fangs, neuter us, chain and cage us for our willingness to fight and be free.

Here's an Executive Order that most seemed to have missed..
It was released on October 26th during the hoopla over Sandy and the upcoming[at the time] election day.
Not too many seemed to have picked up on it. Couple places like the Daily caller and such are the only mentions I can find of it on google within about 6-7 pages in on a search.
Here it is..in it's entirety.
Not too many seemed to have picked up on it. Couple places like the Daily caller and such are the only mentions I can find of it on google within about 6-7 pages in on a search.
Here it is..in it's entirety.
Executive Order -- Establishing the White House Homeland Security Partnership Council
EXECUTIVE ORDER
- - - - - - -
ESTABLISHING THE WHITE HOUSE
HOMELAND SECURITY PARTNERSHIP COUNCIL
By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the
laws of the United States of America, and in order to advance the
Federal Government's use of local partnerships to address homeland
security challenges, it is hereby ordered as follows:
Section 1. Policy. The purpose of this order is to
maximize the Federal Government's ability to develop local partnerships
in the United States to support homeland security priorities.
Partnerships are collaborative working relationships in which the goals,
structure, and roles and responsibilities of the relationships are
mutually determined. Collaboration enables the Federal Government and
its partners to use resources more efficiently, build on one another's
expertise, drive innovation, engage in collective action, broaden
investments to achieve shared goals, and improve performance.
Partnerships enhance our ability to address homeland security
priorities, from responding to natural disasters to preventing
terrorism, by utilizing diverse perspectives, skills, tools, and
resources.
The National Security Strategy emphasizes the importance of
partnerships, underscoring that to keep our Nation safe "we must tap the
ingenuity outside government through strategic partnerships with the
private sector, nongovernmental organizations, foundations, and
community-based organizations. Such partnerships are critical to U.S.
success at home and abroad, and we will support them through enhanced
opportunities for engagement, coordination, transparency, and
information sharing." This approach recognizes that, given the
complexities and range of challenges, we must institutionalize an
all-of-Nation effort to address the evolving threats to the United
States.
Sec. 2. White House Homeland Security Partnership Council and Steering Committee.
(a) White House Homeland Security Partnership Council. There is
established a White House Homeland Security Partnership Council
(Council) to foster local partnerships -- between the Federal Government
and the private sector, nongovernmental organizations, foundations,
community-based organizations, and State, local, tribal, and territorial
government and law enforcement -- to address homeland security
challenges. The Council shall be chaired by the Assistant to the
President for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism (Chair), or a
designee from the National Security Staff.
(b) Council Membership.
(i) Pursuant to the nomination process established in subsection
(b)(ii) of this section, the Council shall be composed of Federal
officials who are from field offices of the executive departments,
agencies, and bureaus (agencies) that are members of the Steering
Committee established in subsection (c) of this section, and who have
demonstrated an ability to develop, sustain, and institutionalize local
partnerships to address policy priorities.
(ii) The nomination process and selection criteria for members of the
Council shall be established by the Steering Committee. Based on those
criteria, agency heads may select and present to the Steering Committee
their nominee or nominees to represent them on the Council. The Steering
Committee shall consider all of the nominees and decide by consensus
which of the nominees shall participate on the Council. Each member
agency on the Steering Committee, with the exception of the Office of
the Director of National Intelligence, may have at least one
representative on the Council.
(c) Steering Committee. There is also established a Steering
Committee, chaired by the Chair of the Council, to provide guidance to
the Council and perform other functions as set forth in this order. The
Steering Committee shall include a representative at the Deputy agency
head level, or that representative's designee, from the following
agencies:
(i) Department of State;
(ii) Department of the Treasury;
(iii) Department of Defense;
(iv) Department of Justice;
(v) Department of the Interior;
(vi) Department of Agriculture;
(vii) Department of Commerce;
(viii) Department of Labor;
(ix) Department of Health and Human Services;
(x) Department of Housing and Urban Development;
(xi) Department of Transportation;
(xii) Department of Energy;
(xiii) Department of Education;
(xiv) Department of Veterans Affairs;
(xv) Department of Homeland Security;
(xvi) Office of the Director of National Intelligence;
(xvii) Environmental Protection Agency;
(xviii) Small Business Administration; and
(xix) Federal Bureau of Investigation.
At the invitation of the Chair, representatives of agencies not listed
in subsection (c) of this section or other executive branch entities may
attend and participate in Steering Committee meetings as appropriate.
(d) Administration. The Chair or a designee shall convene
meetings of the Council and Steering Committee, determine their agendas,
and coordinate their work. The Council may establish subgroups
consisting exclusively of Council members or their designees, as
appropriate.
Sec. 3. Mission and Function of the Council and Steering Committee. (a) The Council shall, consistent with guidance from the Steering Committee:
(i) advise the Chair and Steering Committee members on priorities,
challenges, and opportunities for local partnerships to support homeland
security priorities, as well as regularly report to the Steering
Committee on the Council's efforts;
(ii) promote homeland security priorities and opportunities for
collaboration between Federal Government field offices and State, local,
tribal, and territorial stakeholders;
(iii) advise and confer with State, local, tribal, and territorial
stakeholders and agencies interested in expanding or building local
homeland security partnerships;
(iv) raise awareness of local partnership best practices that can support homeland security priorities;
(v) as appropriate, conduct outreach to representatives of the private
sector, nongovernmental organizations, foundations, community-based
organizations, and State, local, tribal, and territorial government and
law enforcement entities with relevant expertise for local homeland
security partnerships, and collaborate with other Federal Government
bodies; and
(vi) convene an annual meeting to exchange key findings, progress, and best practices.
(b) The Steering Committee shall:
(i) determine the scope of issue areas the Council will address and its
operating protocols, in consultation with the Office of Management and
Budget;
(ii) establish the nomination process and selection criteria for
members of the Council as set forth in section 2(b)(ii) of this order;
(iii) provide guidance to the Council on the activities set forth in subsection (a) of this section; and
(iv) within 1 year of the selection of the Council members, and
annually thereafter, provide a report on the work of the Council to the
President through the Chair.
Sec. 4. General Provisions. (a) The heads of
agencies participating in the Steering Committee shall assist and
provide information to the Council, consistent with applicable law, as
may be necessary to implement this order. Each agency shall bear its own
expense for participating in the Council.
(b) Nothing in this order shall be construed to impair or otherwise affect:
(i) the authority granted by law to an executive department, agency, or the head thereof;
(ii) the functions of the Director of the Office of Management and
Budget relating to budgetary, administrative, or legislative proposals;
or
(iii) the functions of the Overseas Security Advisory Council.
(c) This order shall be implemented consistent with applicable law and
appropriate protections for privacy and civil liberties, and subject to
the availability of appropriations.
(d) This order is not intended to, and does not, create any right or
benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by
any party against the United States, its departments, agencies, or
entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any other person.

Seceding from the Union?
In the last 48hours or so there have been 15 petitions from individuals from 15 different states, to allow those states to Secede from the Union. Well that's great folks but understand this...THAT is just blowing off steam, so I won't sign. If you're SERIOUS, start a petition WITHIN the State, and get it signed by banging on doors, or you can do an electronic one and pass around the link to it via facebook, twitter, various blogs etc.. You have to petition the STATE Legislature to vote to pass Articles of Secession and get it signed by the Governor, which is THEN passed onto the feds announcing the right and intention of the state and it's citizens to secede from the union. If that is not done...then all you're doing is talking to hear yourself talk.
That being said..yeah if one is started here in the Great State of Texas to Secede from the Union and become an independent Republic again? Hell yeah the Wolf will sign it.
Understand something though...if Texas and other states go this route it's going to get UGLY. The Federal Government is NOT going to give up power, control and access to the money our taxes provide, so easily. Neither are the people who on welfare. We the people of those states are going to have to figure out what to do about people like my younger sister, who due to her mental illnesses can't hold down a job...hell she can't function in society for more than a few hours and that's generally only if one of the family members is with her. So we need to figure out how to best help people like my sister and my family in that regard. We also need to get the people who are just popping out babies for the free monies off the damn dole. Soo many issues to deal with folks.
Just remember...if many of the states secede from the union in the name of freedom? Just like some of those posters and image memes you'll see floating around facebook and elsewhere today say.."freedom ain't free" and there WILL be a cost involved. Whether that means just financial hardship or open civil war because the FEDS don't want to let those states go...it would be a hard row to hoe. So make sure you understand that fully.
Edit 850pm 11/11/2012: meant to post this earlier in the day but there's a petition to put secession before the state legislature.
Oh and the wolf is a canine of his word...I signed it.
As always remember TANSTAAFL,..
Keep your powder dry and I now return you to enjoy the world as you can...before it implodes.

What layoffs you ask?
THESE layoffs you idiots! I did a quick google search of the word "layoffs". The following is what came up. Almost all of them in the last 24-96 hours. Oh and this is just the first 7 PAGES. Remember democrats and everyone else for that matter...you were warned this was coming...
With all the taxes coming up, the huge cost increases due to Obummercare, and the plain just sluggish economy we get..wellll...the following.

Welch Allyn
Welch Allyn, a company that manufactures medical diagnostic equipment in central New York, announced in September that they would be laying off 275 employees, or roughly 10% of their workforce over the next t
hree
years. One of the major reasons discussed for the layoffs was a
proactive response to the Medical Device Tax mandated by the new
healthcare law.
Dana Holding Corp.
As recently as a week ago, a global auto parts manufacturing company in Ohio known as Dana Holding Corp., warned their employees of potential layoffs, citing "$24 million over the next six years in additional U.S. health care expenses". After laying off several white collar staffers, company insiders have hinted at more to come. The company will have to cover the additional $24 million cost somehow, which will likely equate to numerous cuts in their current workforce of 25,500 worldwide.
Stryker
One of the biggest medical device manufacturers in the world, Stryker will close their facility in Orchard Park, New York, eliminating 96 jobs in December. Worse, they plan on countering the medical device tax in Obamacare by slashing 5% of their global workforce - an estimated 1,170 positions.
Boston Scientific
In October of 2009, Boston Scientific CEO Ray Elliott, warned that proposed taxes in the health care reform bill could "lead to significant job losses" for his company. Nearly two years later, Elliott announced that the company would be cutting anywhere between 1,200 and 1,400 jobs, while simultaneously shifting investments and workers overseas - to China.
Medtronic
In March of 2010, medical device maker Medtronic warned that Obamacare taxes could result in a reduction of precisely 1,000 jobs. That plan became reality when the company cut 500 positions over the summer, with another 500 set for the end of 2013.
Smith & Nephew - 770 layoffs
Abbott Labs - 700 layoffs
Covidien - 595 layoffs
Kinetic Concepts - 427 layoffs
St. Jude Medical - 300 layoffs
Hill Rom - 200 layoffs
All the preceeding ^^^^ without descriptions are med labs and firms dealing in the medical field.

After laying off several white collar staffers, company insiders have hinted at more to come. The company will have to cover the additional $24 million cost somehow, which will likely equate to numerous cuts in their current workforce of 25,500 worldwide.

One of the biggest medical device manufacturers in the world, Stryker will close their facility in Orchard Park, New York, eliminating 96 jobs in December. Worse, they plan on countering the medical device tax in Obamacare by slashing 5% of their global workforce - an estimated 1,170 positions.

4 more years....Welcome To My Nightmare.
4 more years of no budgets passed and continuing spending resolutions.
4 more years of Obama care coming to full fruition.
4 More years of a President who hates the country he's in charge of.
4 more years...................
Clap. Clap. Clap. Clap.
Congratulations America. You DO realize what you just voted for right?
You just voted for the financial collapse of what was once the Greatest most prosperous nation on earth. Think about this.47% of the population are on government assistance and don't pay taxes. 53% of Americans pay ALL the taxes to PAY for that 47% 's.......
cell phones
child support to continue having welfare babies out of wedlock with a different daddy every time so that mommy can get MORE money out of the system.
Vehicles
Housing.
Utilities.
Groceries in the form of food stamp program..........
I could go on but some of you know the list even better than me.
4 more years of Obama and I suspect the number of Taxpayer vs Dolist[those on the public dole, government assistance] will be 50-50. We might even get to the point where the Dolists outnumber the Taxpayers within 3-4 years. after all why get a job when you can just go on the dole and get uncle obammy to pay your bills and take care of you from cradle to grave? At that point the whole system collapses and welcome to a depression, that's going to make The Great Depression look like a fucking sunday afternoon picnic in the park!
That's one thing America just voted for...the other thing...which is part and parcel of the 1st...is welcome to 3rd World status.
The have nots have voted for a bigger federal government. The federal government TAKES from those who work, who are called "PRODUCERS" The federal government who then turns around and GIVES that money to the have nots. The have nots have just royally corncobbed us and without lube I might add.
Oh and since I put it in the title...I give you this piece I wrote a long time ago..reposted in full..I wish you joy of it....
Welcome To My Nightmare...
I first posted this little speech on 1/23/07..almost 6yrs ago to the day. I'm a little early for the 6th anniversary. : But seeing as how Obama just got re elected...what the hell. *shrug*

This part is from a novel written by William Johnstone. I find it apt and accurate and have for years and years. I believe the man saw this coming a couple decades ago. I believe He wrote many novels trying to warn us of what he saw coming. Some of us saw the warning and tried to get others to listen...they didn't.
"I am living in a nightmare, whence I cannot awaken. Welcome to my nightmare"
This is the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave. Whisper the truth in this brave, free land, and they call you a bigot. Suggest the obvious and you are a fascist. Welcome to my nightmare.
We give cash money, free medical services, food stamps, free housing, and utility subsidies to the poorest class of society, as a payment for producing welfare babies, usually illegitimate. Those who pay the taxes for these services-the workers-must first pay their taxes and then pay retail prices for goods and services. Welcome to my nightmare.
Everyone can do everything as well as anyone else, whether they can or not. If the test results prove otherwise, change the tests. We no longer value equality of opportunity, but rather equality of result. Equality of opportunity means that some will fail; therefore, boost up all those who might fail, even though now no one may succeed. We must now discriminate in favor of minority children and grandchildren ,in the name of justice. Welcome to my nightmare.
Lawyers and judges control every facet of our lives, public and private. No one is safe from a lawsuit, no matter how ridiculous. Policemen cannot arrest, teachers cannot teach, bureaucrats cannot administer without fear that they soon will answer to someone's lawyer, for some half-forgotten mistake. So, in many cases, they do nothing at all. Welcome to my nightmare,
You may speak these words privately, because everyone knows they are true. You may not speak them publicly, because then you are intolerant; you despise the poor; and you smile upon oppression. We adore freedom of speech, but do not dare use it. Use it, and we will punish you. Welcome to my nightmare."
*********************************************************************************
I once said that if we kept putting the same assholes in power we were going to lose our freedoms. Well we just did it again. We won't lose them with a bang but with a whimper, and this land of freedom will be free no more. Too quote a line from Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith."So this is how liberty dies...with thunderous applause.".Just a thought to ponder..back during the cold war America was accused of infecting Russians with our capitalist bourjois...lies. They are trying to emulate us and have our economy. The politicians, more specifically the Liberals in particular and Dems in general are fast trying to head us down the road toward socialism and communism.

The roman empire failed to keep the masses happy even when it became a land of entertainments and colusiums. We now have our own version of that in our concert venues and sports arenas.

[edit 11/6/12...correction..I think we just guaranteed it is.] There's a new modern Messiah thats taken the highest office..to gainsay anything he says is racist, to call the religion of global warming the crock of shit it is and your called ignorant and intolerant to new ideas. I've got a bad feeling we're seeing and HAVE been seeing and not recognizing it; the fall of our own empire.

Welcome to the nightmare..everytime I turn around Obama and his followers and democraps in congress keep coming up with more and more resolutions to chip away at the the constitution and trying to curtail our freedoms. The latest one HR1388 which creates a paid volunteer force starting with kids is frightening as hell. I wonder how much our new messiah studied old tapes of people like JFK..the man he's being compared to and is hailed as our generation's rebirth of. I personally think the 'messiah' and Hitler, Stalin and a few other past dictators and potentates I could name, would have gotten along like gangbusters.

NewEST material..11/6/2012.
I told you people to remember these 9 little letters and try and drum them through the thick skulls of the stupid. TANSTAAFL. There Ain't No Such Thing As A Free Lunch. I got it from Robert Heinlein...he got it from Thermodynamics...it's the second law of Thermodynamics. Guess what..THEY[the stupid, the sheep, those enamored of The one..] in the coming years are going to learn that lesson the hard way. Reap what they've sown....and the rest of us are going to pay with them. We, they, our children, our grandchildren, our great grandchildren...hell our GREAT GREAT Grandchildren...are going to be paying for the folly of the Dolists and the Disingenous Liberals who bought the lies of the marxists and communists in the last 50years hook line and sinker. Batten down the hatches, stock up, learn a trade or two if you've a mind but do it quick....because you're going to need the skill sets to survive what's coming.
As always remember TANSTAAFL,..
Keep your powder dry and I now return you to enjoy the world as you can...before it implodes.

Sarah Hoyt "We've come to the end of the cake."
Go forth and read..
She says pretty much what Ive been saying. Only she does it without my customary bad temper, lack of compassion for a good portion of the populace and foul language.
It breaks down into those 9 little letters I end all my posts with. TANSTAAFL, or to spell it out..
THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS A FREE LUNCH!
Unfortunately too many people have been thinking and acting as if it were otherwise and other people who should have been explaining how this was wrong and/or just flat out cutting them off at the knees....didn't.
Remember boys and girls...TANSTAAFL and...
I now return you to your regularly scheduled inanity and insanity.

Wolf would like to have...
This here beauty..
I may or may not get a ration of shit and shenanigans from certain types of people...but those will be the idiots I use the winch to pull out of several feet of water because they were STUPID during the flooding that happens on the feeder roads and various freeway junctions when it rains hard enough...which is several times a year.

Hence Forth, forthwith and in perpetuity...
etc, etc, etc, ad infinitum. I've decided that the Main Stream Media, which I've been renaming Massively Shitbrained Media, Massively Stupid Media, and Mainly Sewage Media...is no longer even deserving of THOSE loving appellations. So from this day forth I shall refer to them as they REALLY are. The Militantly Liberal Propaganda Ministry, or...MLPM for short. I may also occasionally refer to them as the MTPM or Militantly Transnational Propaganda Ministry.
That is all.
Oh P.S. To everyone and all...if you run across a hacker who delights in creating trojans and such...feel free to neuter them. I've got a persistently persistent trojan that keeps knocking on my firewall and it's starting to annoy me.
