Don’t worry, I will still let you be Anon-Chickenshits on my site (H/T – AG)

I know most of you, so I do a pretty good job of filtering out the psychos – sometimes. But this can’t be good news for ANON commenters on the Argue Endorser’s website;

Gannett this month will begin a groupwide initiative requiring readers to become Facebook members before they are allowed to submit online comments. The move covers all of Gannett’s U.S. newspaper and broadcast sites as well as USA Today. The publisher tested swapping commenting management from Pluck to Facebook at four newspaper sites before making the switch. A memo issued by the publisher said it will continue to use Pluck’s software for other website functions, at least for the short-term. Gannett follows a growing group of newspaper publishers that have opted to use Facebook as a conduit through which readers can post comments. Among them, The Orange County (Calif.) Register, MediaNews Group, Tribune Co., Media General and The San Diego Union-Tribune.

STORMLAND TV already does this on their site. I like it. Wanna say something? Back it up. I also believe you can delete your own comments, if you misspoke 🙂

I totally busted a city snowplow operator bitching about snow gates on the KELO site, and he deleted the comments. I guess losing all of that overtime got him worried.

The Ugly Table #56

THE HUNGRY COUSIN

Customer: I would like to apologize for my cousin’s rude behavior.

ME: I didn’t even notice.

Well, actually I did, but after 3 loaves of bread, a gallon of water, a salad swimming in dressing, one & half steaks and two gigantic loaded baked potatoes, I wasn’t really concerned about his rudeness but if he was going to eat me.

Customer: It’s always something with him, the lighting, the music, the way the steak is cooked.

ME: Well his steak was cooked wrong, he had a reasonable complaint.

Well, kinda, WTF is the difference between a medium well and well done sirloin? A hint of pink, otherwise they both taste the same, like shit.

Customer: We were kicking each other under the table because his behavior has come to be expected.

ME: Oh, I know what you mean.

What I wanted to say is, maybe you should get him a membership to Weight Watchers for Christmas. Either that or a gift certificate to Breadsmith.

Either way, you’ll be sending a STRONG message.

Teabaggers UNITE!

Here is an email that Dr. Allen Unruh sent out recently to his fellow baggers;

Dear Tea Party Patriots;

Mitt Romney spoke at the annual Chamber of Commerce in Sioux Falls. Liberals and the Republican establishment are pushing hard to make Romney the nominee. They feel if Obama loses, he is the closest to their ideology of Obama Care,  and big government control as well as being the weakest on conservative cultural issues.   Obama promised everything and anything to get elected and then governed from the radical far left.

If Obama is ruling from the far left I would hate to see a real liberal as our president. He has much in common with GW Bush.

From Gerald Ford,  to Bob Dole to John McCain,  everytime the establishment picks the candidate it is devastating for America.   Why?  Because principles matter,  character matters,  the Constitution,  Bill of Rights and words in the Declaration of Independence matter.   Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.    George Washington warned,  “In questions of confidence,  let us hear no more of confidence in man,  but bind them down from mischief by the chains of the constitution.”    He said,  “Government is like fire,  a dreadful servant and a fearful master.”   At best it is a necessary evil.   Abe Lincoln said,  “Nothing demonstrates the character of a man more than what they do when they are given power.”   Man’s greatest gift is his power of love,  his greatest downfall is his love of power.”

This time our nation cannot afford to get it wrong.  We are on the brink of losing our country.  If we go straight socialistic there is no turning back.

This country has been socialistic for generations. The only reason why our country is in the shitter is because we chipped away at those social programs to supply tax cuts to the wealthy. We have become a shit pile, because the TOP 1% control this country, and throw bread crumbs to rest of us. And that is the very reason people are protesting;

The protestors in NY hate capitalism,  hate America,  hate the flag,  and are a mix of communists,  socialists and anarchists. They know every 4 letter word except SOAP and WORK.

Here is an eight letter word for you Allen; BULLSHIT! The OWS protestors are more of a slice of the American Pie then any teabagger is or ever will be.

If they overthrow the government where would they get their welfare checks?    The tea party movement has to make a decision who is the most conservative candidate who stands on principle,  and do everything we can to eliminate the most liberal candidate no matter how much money they have,  or popularity.    Not only is the future of America at stake,  but civilization itself.

Civilization has been in trouble for a long time, that won’t change because of few guys holding signs and wearing tri-cornered hats.

This information on Mitt Romney should be forwarded to everyone on all of your lists   We must start an aggressive campaign to inform the voters and remind them of his record.  The Bible says,  “By their fruits ye shall know them.”   We can’t look at what they say,  Look at what they did when they were in power!”

God Bless America,

Dr. Allen Unruh

“If you will not fight for your rights when you can win without bloodshed,  if you will not fight when victory can be sure and not too costly,  you will come to the moment when you have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival.”   Winston Churchill

“By their fruits ye shall know them.” – I couldn’t agree more, accept the fruits of OWS doesn’t come from the multi-billionaire Koch brothers.
