Attention All Birthers!

If you are not familiar with the term, you can read all about it [here].  If you would rather not, the long and the short of it is that a “birther” is someone who believes that President Obama cannot legally serve as the President of the United States of America because of not being born a citizen.

Yes, despite his Hawaiian birth certificate being available for viewing, there are still many who remain adamant.  For it is claimed that the birth certificate is a forgery, and this sounds about right to those who have been drinking way too much [tea] lately.

D-Block Allocation

I just read an article on the online version of the [Springfield (MO) News-Leader] about the proposed legislation to allocate the D Block for public safety that has me perplexed.  For it is being co-sponsored by our first-term representative, [Billy Long], and he claims to know nothing about the part in the bill that authorizes the sale of the frequencies that are used by [ham radio] operators to commercial interests to help pay for an upgrade of our communication capabilities.

Please, don’t think that I am against an upgrade to our current system.  For I was absolutely aghast to find out a few years back that most police departments, fire departments, search and rescue and other emergency entities cannot directly communicate with each other—let alone with federal agencies and the military!

Furthermore, the [Emergency Broadcasting System] here in the good ol’ U.S. of A. has never really worked right, which brings us to the significance of possibly forcing ham radio operators off of the air.  For they are the ones who often get the word out the best when a tornado is bearing down on a community, or when a rescue is needed in a remote area.

Okay, I will admit that I am probably knee-jerking here.  For I certainly don’t know all of the particulars, but apparently, neither does our [Tea-Partier], which I find rather disturbing.

So, is he lying or clueless?  Either way, it is not looking good for this part of the [Ozarks].

Seriously, What's In The Tea?

A [former governor of Arkansas] and current member of the fair and balanced [Fox News] team, [Mike Huckabee], is thinking about running for president of the United States of America again in 2012.  In fact, it could be argued that he is thinking quite seriously about it.  For the [Huck PAC] exists, and I do not think it would without his cooperation.

Of course, considering the current state [Republican] politics, he has to woo the members of the [Tea Party Movement], and this has gotten him a lot of publicity lately.  Some would say that it is not good publicity, but he may be of the mindset that any publicity is good publicity.
