Flooding

Well today is the day, or at least it is supposed to be the day the river hits it's highest levels...

We pray for the city and all those directly affected. Luckily our business location, though mentioned in the food zone, should be safe.
The main Memphis airport was not threatened, nor was FedEx, which has a sorting hub at the airport that handles up to 2 million packages per day.

Don't Apply to Him

Obama proves he really believes he is above the constitution! I have always thought "squaring away" our courts and local government representatives should be the priority - Our president has jumped to the front, got to go ASAP (2012).

Some excerpts:
he would not abide by the section of the law defunding the establishment of so-called "czars."

Solidarity - Yea Right...

...let me get this right - It is "solidarity" when liberals agree with the "cause" and a mob when they don't.

Tea Party demonstrators had no violence (though accused but never proven), no taxpayer went without services (i.e. fake sick calls), no calls for "blood in the streets" - Yet they were a mob...

Now we have liars faking sick call-in(s), politicians saying "sometimes you have to get bloody", and protesters issuing threats...and this is a good thing.

Guess I am a stupid southern boy, because that makes no sense to me - AND, I pray it never does!

Against Public Unions - Your a Racist

…just in case you didn't know
American Thinker Blog: Fiscal responsibility is racist!
Thought I would mention, upon leaving the military I looked at "a public" job and was told "no matter if you have the highest, score the top 98 minorities would be hired before you are considered" - They were looking to hire 100 police officers. Wonder why the public sector has a higher number of african-american employees? ?

Another View on Unions

This is an interesting read of someone, from a pro-union family, changing their opinion of unions…

I now saw the union as a grand rip-off. The union working man wasn't some noble, virtuous saint, fighting the good fight against the Robber Barons, as I'd always been taught. He was a drunken, stoned, uneducated, vulgar slob, ripping off a piece of the action for himself.
