I'd like to know how these morons stay in office? Who is it they think they are representing? Shouldn't there be SOME qualifications to hold office? I mean this guy must be a total moron to be wasting tax payers money at a time like this.

I just may start gathering signatures to impose a "Protection Tax" on all citizens who don't own a gun. Aren't THEY the ones always costing us money by calling 911 whenever they hear a bump in the night? Normal people take a gun and go down stairs to investigate a noise in the middle of the night by themselves, and go back to bed when they find the cat got into the cupboard. When are gun owners going to get SICK of these liberal no minds constant assault on our God given rights? Lets turn this thing around and start making irresponsible people who refuse to own a gun pay for the extra protection they demand from the police. Ya, that's it... a "No gun tax."

Well, not everyone thinks my idea is so stupid evidently. And I just sent a copy of this to my rep here in MA suggesting it's a good way to raise revenue here in assachusetts. Hey, we're broke right? Maybe it will work. Here's what I just got in.

Dear Americans,

The travesty of American's unalienable rights perpetrated against the people at Fort Hood is confirmation that our government has derailed. This is proof that when we leave our safety in the hands of our government and depend on a cell phone for immediate help, instead of a gun, they will show up in time to draw chalk lines around our corpses and file a report. What will it take for people to realize that criminals will always find a way to secure a gun and kill people, especially where they know that the citizens are not armed because of our ridiculous gun laws. The very thought that on an American military base, nobody was armed and ready to defend themselves is more than a crime against humanity. It is an outright sin that we the people once again fall victim to the laws inflicted on us by the liberal elite.

We the people will no longer stand for this. The time has come for real change. Change we can live with. We the people will no longer tolerate or abide by these insane laws. I urge everyone to

1. Join the NRA and GOAL.
2. Take a gun safety course, and purchase a gun, even if you don't think
you need one. You wear a seat belt in a car and bring a life jacket on your
boat, and have a fire extinguisher in your house, and you never plan to
need them.
3. Send a letter or call your representatives and tell them you're sick of their
nonsense, and plan to fire them come next election.
4. Share this letter with your email friends, twitter, face book, and my space
friends. It's time we take our country back.

Daily Horoscope for December 4

Pisces

Go carefully, Pisces, because you could be vulnerable to those who might want to mislead you in some way. Unfortunately, you'll also do a good job of misleading yourself if you turn a blind eye to difficult situations. By taking an escapist attitude to anything that seems like too much hard work, you make a rod for your own back under current aspects. Don't persist in this for too long or it will lead to trouble.
