Extremist? Hardly!


I'm a lover, not a fighter. The fact that I enjoy blowing targets to smithereens doesn't change that, does it? We are fortunate here in Kentucky to have the Knob Creek Gun Range. They host two big shows a year where you can fire machine guns and watch exhibitions of military weaponry. For those of us who truly believe in "peace through superior firepower," this is an amazing event.

So, imagine my surprise, while Googling the event, to find that this particular show in 2003 was listed as an Extremist event on the Anti-Defamation League's website. They mention militia encampments as part of the reason it's considered "extremist." I take issue with the idea that militia are extremists. They may be the only line of defense if, God forbid, John Kerry becomes President and subjugates U.S. sovereignty to Kofi and his band of crooks! C'mon ADL, let's be realistic about who we classify as "extremists!"

As the Blog Turns...

Gee. I have found myself fascinated by the soap opera unfolding in the comments section of this blog since last night. One little mention on a controversial Democrat's blog and it's High Noon on ConservaChick! (Yes, I'm laughing while I type this.) For those of you who have no idea what's happening in the ever-expanding comments section , join the club! Here's what I know about Mark Nickolas from bits and pieces I've read on his blog, and from a local news report: Nickolas likes to sneer at Republicans and call them snide little nicknames as he provides his "Unfiltered and Candid Look at Politics, Politicians and the Media in Kentucky;" he raised a ruckus within the Democrat party here in Kentucky by filing a suit against the chairman of the party , Jerry Lundergan; and he will be appearing on the same panel with yours truly on Thursday night. That's about it. You now have the benefit of my not-so-extensive knowledge on this subject. Nickolas poste...

Is conscription the prescription?

US Representative, Charlie Rangel (D-NY) is at it again. Rangel's prescription for fixing the ills we're feeling in Iraq is a draft . I have very mixed feelings about this. Conscription is conscription no matter what you choose to label it. Is that appropriate in a free country? On the flip side of this coin, I've often thought that compulsory national service would be a great idea for American kids right out of high school. It might have been a better start for me than learning to down beer at a Liberal Arts university! Two years in the service might give kids time to think about their future, learn higher levels of responsibility, and begin to take life more seriously. There are many countries who require some level of mandatory military service: Belarus, Chile, China, Croatia, Serbia, Russia, Iran, Lebanon, our neighbor Mexico, and our old buddy Germany, to name a few. Gee, now that I look at that partial list... aren't many of those countries Socialist or at battl...

Three Things No One Else Is Telling You

From: Downsizer Dispatch < downsizer-dispatch@downsizedc.org > Date: Fri, Oct 8, 2010 at 12:38 PM Subject: Three Things No One Else Is Telling You To: conservachick@gmail.com Quote of the Day: "Things in our country run in spite of the government, not by the aid of it." -- Will Rogers (1879-1935) American humorist Unelected federal bureaucrats are forcing New York City to spend $27 million to replace their street signs. Our bureaucratic overlords maintain that streets signs must contain both upper and lower case letters, instead of just capital letters! Do you feel grateful that you're being protected from upper case streets signs? This dictatorial mandate comes from the Federal Highway Administration, and applies to every community in America, not just New York City. But don't blame this outrage on the busy-body Democrats. This isn't an Obama directive. The rule was actually promulgated back in 2003 -- during the Bush Administrat...
