322 Thanksgiving and Odds and Ends

Hope all of you out there in Corn and Bean land had a great Thanksgiving...I had about three of them and it was good...Seems like lots of folks attend more than one even now each Thanksgiving. Only thing I don't like about the Holiday is the excuse or right to passage of over eating a bit...I know that is part of it but it launches us all into a Holiday month long event between now and Christmas of doing just that. I know the answer is, "just don't do it", but it is our way of thanking ourselves I guess for another good year. Well tomorrow I cut back a bit, I hope....

My Man Newt Gingrich seems to be catching a bit of flack these days over his stance on how to handle the Amigo's that have walked across the river into America. Personally I think his thinking sounds pretty sound. For the most part they are hard working Christian people and who can really blame them for wanting a lot better life? I just wished we had erected a fence that would keep the ones coming in legally and not the illeagals just walking in unannounced. That is not good, but as Newt said if they have been here for a long time have kids and grandkids who are born here how could we toss them out? I think he will do the right thing if he is elected and I sure hope he is. I made my first political donation to Newt of 25 bucks a week ago maybe after the last debate hosted by CNN. I thought Wolf Blitzer did an excellent job of narriating the debates. No loaded stupid questions as came up when MSNBC hosted one a couple months ago. Anyway Gingrich is my hopeful candidate. I hope he can pull it off it will be tough battle though with a couple other candidates still looking good also. Any one of them would be a tremendous amount better than the goofus that currently "occupies", the oval office.

Currently working on installing motion detector lights around and im my home. Also some high tech security cameras that record any movement in my home. So if I am ever broken into again maybe just maybe someone will be going to jail for the act, we will see. Hopefully we won't see but in case it happens again I want lots of evidence of what happened. My high tech grandson is installing this stuff and I think anytime I leave now for a few hours I will be protected that way.

Well amigo's its getting close to bed time here on the prairie so will sign off...

321 Soon at a Crossroads for sure.

I predict future happiness for
Americans if they can prevent the government
from wasting the labors of the people under the
pretense of taking care of them.
Thomas Jefferson

Why do I not see this on a sign carried by a wall street protestor? I think I know why, because now it is called "social justice", liberalism's way of extracting money from the working class and sharing it with those who want to be taken care of instead.

I tell you this country had better get a grip and soon. This President and some of the slugs in congress have us on a path of destruction. It is like it is their goal for us to crash and burn. I can not believe this is happening and even more I can not believe the American people are not completely up in arms about big government killing this economy. I only hope that 13 months from now I have something to celebrate in this madness coming to an end. But I know there is equal chance that instead because so many are asleep as to what is happening that we will go ahead and complete the job of the destruction of this nation and all that it has stood for.

I surely hope the balance budget ammendment to the constitution will pass soon and the people will have the opportunity to vote on it. That would be a huge measure to our enormous problem of spending far more than we take in. It should have never started, but surely it has to stop.

I wish you all a good Thanksgiving season. I hope it is not among our last and that we will gain our backbone and men like Jefferson will rise to guide us.

320 Lets just Occupy Summer....

What are your thoughts on the OWS movement? To occupy wall street, actually just city parks? Personally I am kind of turned off by it all. I think it is Woodstock with longevity of a generation being spoiled to the point of what we have today. To me they should be out occupying a job. Any job they could get and there are jobs out there. Maybe not the greatest job but a job and then you do that till you find a better one. But no these clowns go out and spend 500 bucks on tents and camping out equipment and joist with the police day after day and cry about how they are not rich...To me it is just a cancer we have allowed to birth and grow.
So I have started my own movement and am calling it "occupy summer"...Let is not allow it to leave, let us occupy it. My strawberries have signed on with me. They daily keep me in enough for my cereal bowl each morning. But it could end if I do not get a huge injection of cash from folks like you. I am thinking for just a few thousand dollars we could do a shovel ready infrastructure here like a hot house over my raised garden in the my back yard...Your money, my back yard, its not a lot to ask is it? Come on America it's only money.

319...The Harvest of 2012, let it be a good one....

Harvest of the crops in the midwest is pretty well complete. I was done maybe 3 weeks ago and during harvest looking down at these snouts on the combine corn head that gather in the corn, I got to thinking....Now most of you probably realize that when I "get to thinking" it is sometimes dangerous, but in this case I think it was maybe a good thing.
You see I am quite concerned for our country. This present administration is in my opinion taking us down a garden path that we have no business going down. We need to turn this ship around and fast and we have one chance at doing that and it lies ahead with our selection of a candidate for President and Vice President that will take this country back to a smaller form of government. But in anticipation of this upcoming year I decided to add our national colors to my corn head...right out there in front where the action is I thought needed to be our colors...out there where it all gets sorted out.
Thus I did the paint job on it and notice that looking at it from a left or right view point its still "red white and blue"....But I think there is more going on here than just some paint. I really think this represents the needed work ahead...the harvesting of what we have and then a new start at what we almost lost. A combine takes it all in keeps what is good and discards out the back what is not needed. In 2012 there needs to be a lot coming out the back..There just will not be a lot to keep...I hope for our nations sake this is the case...Let us continue our search for a good candidate, it will all get sorted out and after that then "LETS ROLL"....
