Quote for the Evening

"Whenever someone asks me if I want water with my Scotch,
I say I'm thirsty, not dirty."


-- Joe E. Lewis
(January 12, 1902 - 4 June 1971)
born Joseph Klewan in New York City, was an American comedian and singer.

I Just Joined the Constitution Party

As an independent voter, I am not allowed to vote in Washington State's primary election. A year ago, the majority of voters decided that only Republicans and Democrats should be allowed to vote, and voters must sign an oath saying they belong to one or the other party.

Not only are oaths un-Biblical, neither major political party has a candidate that deserves my vote. All Democrat candidates support the killing of babies, which disqualifies them for public office, and the Republican candidates are so far left they could easily fit in the Democrat party.

Follow the money: rich, radical socialist leftists support both Republican and Democrat candidates. John McCain has accepted money from "...left-wing donors such as George Soros and Teresa Heinz Kerry." http://www.constitutionparty.com/news.php?aid=727

The Constitution Party is the largest third-party political organization in the United States, and my vote, combined with all those who are sick and tired of the status quo, will elect a president who will support the constitution and reject the liberal, secular, big government agendas, including the Republican war machine and the Democrat's social engineering.

"I love to sing, and I love to drink Scotch.
Most people would rather hear me drink Scotch."

-- George Burns

Personalized Sin Plates

Washington State is proposing bright yellow license plates for people convicted of driving under the influence of intoxicants. When I saw the Seattle Times newspaper headline, I thought, "Yes, what a great idea!", but as the day wore on, I thought about the rising tide of legislated political correctness, and became increasingly angry wondering who would be the next target of social police.

Would women convicted of prostitution have scarlet plates? Would men convicted of soliciting have pictures of used condoms on their plates? Would ex-cons have jail-house bars on their plates? How about a picture of a severed hand for those convicted of shoplifting?

Maybe this is a social experiment to see how much shame a person can bear before they jump off the Aurora bridge.
