This would be extremely funny if it weren't so true! Obama is leading us in a downward spiral ......
(the following was sent to me in an email)
Let’s Recap regarding Obama
1. The American people elect a black president with a total of 42 days experience as a U S Senator from the most politically corrupt state in America whose governor is ousted from office. The President’s first official act is to close Gitmo and make sure terrorists civil rights are not violated.
2. The U.S. Congress rushes to confirm a black Attorney General, Eric Holder, whose law firm we later find out represents seventeen Gitmo Terrorists.
3. The CIA Boss, Leon Panetta with absolutely no experience, has a daughter Linda we find out, that is a true radical anti-American activist who is a supporter of all the Anti-American regimes in the western hemisphere.
4. We got the most corrupt female in America as Secretary of State; bought and paid for. Hillary Clinton.
5. We got a Tax Cheat for Treasury Secretary who files his own taxes. Timmy Geithner.
6. 2 Commerce Secretary nominees who withdrew due to corruption charges and conflicts of interest. Judd Gregg and Bill Richardson
7. A Tax cheat nominee for Chief Performance Officer who withdrew under charges. Nancy Killefer
8. A Labor Secretary nominee that faced charges of unethical conduct, over her husband’s unpaid business taxes. Hilda Solis
9. A HHS Secretary nominee that withdrew under charges of cheating on his taxes. Tom Daschle
And that’s just the first month… But who’s counting?
Lots of ice and snow in this area. The birds looked so pretty sitting on the icy branches. This little lady gave me some really good poses.
My sweet little Albie went to "doggie heaven" on Monday December 15. He lived a happy life for 16 years.
Old Joe is too accustomed to being interviewed by CNN, NBC, MSNBC, ABC and CBS ... they ask all those "softball" questions.
This interview proves what a liar Mr. Biden really is! He cannot handle the "tuff" questions. Can you imagine what CNN, NBC, etc. would have done if Sarah Palin had responded to a question with "Are you joking" ....
Barack Obama’s campaign killed all interviews with a Florida TV station after Sen. Joe Biden, the Democratic vice presidential nominee, faced tough and critical questions from a reporter at the Orlando station, the Orlando Sentinel reported .
During a satellite video Thursday, WFTV’s Barbara West quoted Karl Marx and asked Biden how Obama’s comment to “Joe the Plumber,” about spreading the wealth wasn’t being Marxist.
“Are you joking?,” Biden asked.
West replied, “No.”
Later in the interview West questioned Biden about his comments that if Obama wins the election next month, he would be tested early on as president and wanted to know if Biden was implying America was no longer the world’s leading power.
“I don’t know who’s writing your questions,” Biden asked her.
The Obama camp then killed a WFTV interview with Biden’s wife Jill
This guy is so full of himself .... an egotistical idiot!
I never knew that the press had to pay big bucks for election night coverage!

"Although it can climb up the trunks of trees and hammer on wood like other woodpeckers, the Northern Flicker prefers to find food on the ground. Ants are its favorite food, and the flicker digs in the dirt to find them. It uses its long barbed tongue to lap up the ants."
I heard this little Catbird “meowing” across the road yesterday morning so I went over and looked for him. He wouldn’t come out of his dark hiding place and I didn’t want to use the flash and scare him off. Photos are kinda dark but you can still see what he looks like.
GRAY CATBIRD/Dumetella carolinensis
"A secretive, but curious skulker of dense thickets, the Gray Catbird is heard more than it is seen. Its rambling song contains imitations of other bird songs, but the characteristic "mew" that gives it its name is not an imitation and sounds only vaguely cat-like."
This Brown Thrasher was in the Maple tree in the backyard so I had to shoot him through the window!
BROWN THRASHER/Toxostoma rufum
"Brown Thrashers leave the nest at only 9 to 13 days old, earlier than either of its smaller relatives, the Northern Mockingbird or Gray Catbird.
An aggressive defender of its nest, the Brown Thrasher is known to strike people and dogs hard enough to draw blood."

Here is the “PALIN” speech for anyone that might have missed it last night. Sarah is a fabulous speaker!
Households worried about the high cost of keeping warm this winter will draw little comfort from the Farmers' Almanac, which predicts below-average temperatures for most of the U.S.
"Numb's the word," says the 192-year-old publication, which claims an accuracy rate of 80 to 85 percent for its forecasts that are prepared two years in advance.
The almanac's 2009 edition, which goes on sale Tuesday, says at least two-thirds of the country can expect colder than average temperatures, with only the Far West and Southeast in line for near-normal readings.
"This is going to be catastrophic for millions of people," said almanac editor Peter Geiger, noting that the frigid forecast combined with high prices for heating fuel is sure to compound problems households will face in keeping warm.
The almanac predicts above-normal snowfall for the Great Lakes and Midwest, especially during January and February, and above-normal precipitation for the Southwest in December and for the Southeast in January and February. The Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions should be getting an unusually wet or snowy February, the almanac said.
Most people wouldn’t like a forecast of cold snowy weather but I would love it! I’m a cold weather person. So now I’m sitting here dreaming of snow, ice and freezing temps. Here is an image from Feb. 12, 2008 …. everything was encased in ice! The little birdies were freezing!
