Spin Zone / Reid has 'Set the Senate' for Nuclear Option
« on: October 26, 2016, 07:43:52 AM »
Reid is setting up the Senate for Schumer to use the nuclear option for judicial votes, requiring only a simple majority.

http://thehill.com/blogs/floor-action/senate/302513-reid-dems-could-change-rules-for-supreme-court-nominees

The ONLY thing that will stop Hillary and the democrats from WEAPONIZING the courts and especially the USSC is a president Trump. Sad to say, but true.

Conservative speech?  Gone after Citizens United is overturned.

Second Amendment?  Not after one new Justice is added who agrees with the Heller dissent that the RKBA is NOT an individual right.

And on and on.

Depressing as hell.

And a spokesman for the party of all things "green" called it an "honest mistake." 

Filthy animals.

Finally, a chink in the leftists armor! 

I've always thought that Bruce was a pretty fair liberal, and she proved me right with this statement.

Now watch the Dems work to destroy her.

Spin Zone / Missiles Fired at US Ship from Yemen
« on: October 10, 2016, 09:15:50 AM »
Why do we not have a Battle Ship laying waste to 10 square miles of land from where these missiles were fired? 

We are so neutered.

Spin Zone / Has Liberalism Ruined Entertainment for You Yet?
« on: October 04, 2016, 02:57:47 PM »
The article addresses the wider issue, which is important to discuss.

But it also addresses the exact same feelings I got while watching the first two episodes of "Designated Survivor". 

I thought the premise was good (how can you not enjoying nearly the entire Executive and Legislative branches being wiped out during the SOTU?) but it then overplayed every single stereotype of conservatives and republicans. Disgusting.

I was hoping for a Jack Bauer character. What I got was a Harry Reid character.

I have a friend who is a Charlotte-Mecklenburg police officer on duty in Uptown Charlotte tonight.  Keep him in your prayers.

These filthy ghetto thugs make me sick.  😡

Pilot Zone / Training Sortie in a PT-26
« on: September 18, 2016, 08:12:54 PM »
I recently was approved as a pilot sponsor in the CAF Wisconsin Wing's Fairchild PT-26, a 1943 primary trainer. 

My first training sortie is in the books!  My concerns were:

1.  Don't screw up in front of Vic, a super pilot (flew KC-135's in Vietnam, flew 767s for a major airline, and owns his own Harvard) and

2.  Don't bend this beautiful 1943 aircraft. 

I pretty much accomplished both objectives, except when I spoke to Tower I kept saying "Cutlass niner...er, correction, Fairchild niner four seven four Hotel..."  I'm such a moron. 

We did some air work, steep turns, stalls (Note to self:  this is NOT a Cessna, it's a Warbird, and will bite you if you aren't careful.  If (when) the wing drops in a stall, use sufficient rudder, NOT ailerons, to lift the wing), and then headed back to the airport for landings. 

This aircraft is a beautiful flyer, and does exactly what you ask of it.  Pattern work was very good, it was easy to nail 80 mph (not knots) on downwind, base and final, maintaining that speed until the flair. 

My landings were pretty good.  Runway alignment was not too tough with the massive rudder, wide landing gear, and heavy weight.  This is a 2,800 lb. aircraft, and gave no indication of wanting to fly again when the angle of attack increased when the tail fell.  We basically did full stall three point landings, but avoided having the tail touch first given her age. 

Take offs are very smooth, without much desire to depart the centerline if you maintain adequate right rudder.  The tail raises by itself, and she tells you when she she's ready to fly.  It takes a lot of right rudder on climb out, and doesn't go anywhere very fast, so your right leg will be tired once you hit your cruise altitude. 

Overall, I was very happy with the flight, and I think Vic was as well.

As I was lying on my back wiping the oil from the belly, I thought about the number of 18-22 year old young men who flew this aircraft in 1943-1945 enroute to flying fighters, bombers, and anything else to help in the war effort.  I am humbled to have the opportunity to even touch this aircraft, let alone fly it. 

Thank you, Commemorative Air Force, for making today possible for me.

Spin Zone / Jesse Jackson to Give Ghetto Thug Eulogy
« on: August 23, 2016, 03:52:30 PM »
This piece of filth is coming to Milwaukee to give the eulogy for the ghetto thug felon who was shot by a Milwaukee cop after he pointed a stolen gun at the cop after running away from a stop for a suspected stolen car.

Does BLM or whatever fucking black cause he is representing have no shame or embarrassment for the sickness of this?  Fuckers like Jackson, Sharpton, or Farrakhan won't be happy until there is an all out war between the races, and between blacks and law enforcement.

I'm not sure I have ever been this disgusted.

He has yet to say a word about the deaths of black innocents like Laylah Petersen, a 5-year old Milwaukee girl who was sitting on her grandfather's lap in his living room when she was shot in the head by a gangbangers having a shootout outside of the house.

Well, it seems the children are at it again. I joined the group on FB by this name, but it seems to be many former or current POA participants.

You can tell by all the dick jokes and dick tracks posted on that site.

Kids will be kids!

Spin Zone / Men are Getting Weaker Because We're Not Raising Men
« on: August 17, 2016, 08:22:32 AM »
A very good article by David French, and it echoes my observations on the same topic.

I only had the privilege to raise a girl and not a boy, but when I see the boys when my daughter was growing up, I see the young men in the workplace today, I think French is spot on.

The link in the article to a Washington Post article is also a good read.

Spin Zone / Milwaukee Riots
« on: August 15, 2016, 03:30:47 PM »
To summarize, a black cop shoots a black man armed with a stolen pistol holding stolen ammunition after a traffic stop made due to suspicion of a stolen vehicle.

The suspected perpetrator runs, officer gives chase, doesn't drop his gun and allegedly raises the gun toward the officer. Officer shoots and kills the man with the gun.

So of course, with no facts whatsoever, the opportunists in the black community begin to riot, assaulting police officers with rocks and bricks, destroying vehicles, assaulting white people, and torch six buildings, including burning a gas station to the ground. 

I thought I would lay out the facts as I know them today, and also give you some insight to the product of Obama's efforts at racial healing over the last eight years:

"A seventeen-minute video (below) has emerged which appears to show the beginning of the Milwaukee riots as the rioters were initially threatening police officers who were trying to keep the peace during the afternoon.

"The video starts with the Black Lives Matter crowd angrily yelling at officers over the fatal shooting of Sylville Smith, a black man with a lengthy arrest record who, according to Milwaukee's Democrat Mayor Tom Barrett, had stolen the gun, which held 23 rounds in it. Also, it turns out the cop that shot him was black. Worth noting that in the video here, many of cops being threatened are non-whites and female.

"At the 35-second mark, a rioter can be heard yelling to the officers, "We do not want justice or peace anymore. We done with that shit. We want blood. We want blood. We want the same shit ya'll want. Eye for an eye. No more peace. F--k all that. Ain't no more peace. Ain't no more peace. We done. We cannot co-habitate with white people, one of us have to go, black or white. All ya'll have to go!"

Pilot Zone / So, Who's Going to Oshkosh?
« on: July 14, 2016, 12:12:00 PM »
I thought I'd start a thread to see who is going to be up at EAA AirVenture this year.

You may want to post the days you'll be up there, what you are flying if you are flying in, and what you will be doing when there.

It would be nice if you posted your first name  as well as your PS name.

Also, we can PM each other if you want to share cell phone numbers to get together.

Stan (nddons) will be there from Saturday, 7/23 through Sunday, 7/31. I'll be staying either in Warbirds camping, or Camp Scholler.

I work Flightline Ops, marshaling planes from the runways to the taxiways.  Be sure to give your marshalers a kind wave when you pass by. We probably have been standing there for 3-6 hours and that friendly stuff makes a difference. Of course if you're flying a Cirrus, we know you're too cool to wave.
