But there is another vote that is just as important – your vote for the two open Ohio Supreme Court Justice positions.

Eat that suckas.  To celebrate, Bitter and I got milkshakes from Wawa.  In what the Obama campaign surely would classify as racism, Bitter got Vanilla.  A long time coming is right.  I barely remember the last World Series win in 1980.  I remember 1983, where they went and lost, and 1993, where the same thing happened. ...

Damn......

Sebastian: Dan has been asked by the board to resign from the company he himself founded. It’s sad that it has to come to things like this, but he’s supporting a candidate who would disarm us all if he could find a way. No word yet on Cooper’s response. ...

The above is the headline for an editorial written by Barbara Hudson, the Chairman of the Blanco County Democratic Party. This was Barbara's attempt at jest, to mock my concerns about what will happen to our right to keep and bear arms under an Obama presidency and a Democrat super-majority in congress.In the Blanco County News she writes:2008 Pres...

It looks like they are asking Dan Cooper to resign: The employees, shareholders and board of directors of Cooper Firearms of Montana do not share the personal political views of Dan Cooper. Although we all believe everyone has a right to vote and donate as they see fit, it has become apparent that the fallout may affect more than just Mr. Cooper. ...

I like these cold, gray winter days. Days like these let you savor a bad mood. Bill Watterson - Calvin and Hobbes.We had our first flurry of snow. As I venture briefly out back with Barkley at first light, there is nothing else braving the elements but some poor wild creatures trying to seek shelter as best they can. If you look out onto the snow,...

I have never in my life been so ready for an election season to be over and done with. I can hardly wait for the Messiah to be sworn in so unicorns will start farting rainbows on the front lawn of my gold house and I can run them over with my rocket car on the way to my governmentally-guaranteed middle class job.(Oh, and the TeeWee will blessedly s...

From the FEC webpage: Here's the image of a $2100 Obama contribution by a Daniel Cooper of Pound Ridge, NY, no occupation given. The FEC webpage lists this under Daniel Cooper/Copper Firearms, I believe by mistake. Here's an image of a 2/6/08 donation of $1,000 by Dan Cooper of Akron OK, President/CEO of Cooper Firearms. (For some strange reason ...

I should have figured this kind of thing would be something Bryan Miller would jump in to.  No tragedy too horrible that Bryan Miller won’t exploit to smear gun owners as a whole.  I don’t think it’s possible to have a reasonable discussion on guns with Bryan Miller.  He’s shown himself to be hysterical, and not intereste...

For those of you who didn't know, I'm a huge Harry Potter fan. These books are not just children's entertainment. They're multi-layered, politically savvy and are a terrific way to bond with the Redhead as we read together.  The sixth Harry Potter movie, Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince will be out next July.  The novel darkens as...

I'd join in, but I'm not registering there.So, I'll just do it here.Bryan Miller, you're a reptile. You have no morals, values or anything resembling a conscience. You use the death of your br...

You know... I railed against this bailout.  I said over and over again that we're doing nothing but rewarding bad behavior when we rescue banks who made shitty decisions with taxpayer dollars instead of letting them suffer the consequences of their own actions.Still think the bailout was a good idea?Five straight quarters of losses and a 70 pe...

SayUncle was on top of it while I was busy digging up Dan Cooper’s campaign donating records.  I guess the Pennsylvania State Police are giving free lessons on operating illegal gun databases to neighboring states. You know, when the “crazy” folks said all this instant check stuff was really a conspiracy to register all gun sales...

The reason that 8 year-old was firing the machine gun was because guns are a stand-in for erections. What about my wife’s gun? ...

Given that it's the time of year when we're getting ready to choose a new president, and the new administration will be taking up residence in the White House in just a few short weeks, I've decided to once again implement the "no blogging at work" rule.  Between all the assessments, reports and briefings I have to write for the new administra...

There are hundreds of machine gun shoots that happen across the country without incident every year.  It’s a great way for a curious public to come and learn about automatic firearms, and try them out, in a controlled and safe environment.  I’ve never seen someone shoot an automatic weapon that didn’t come away from the shooting...

Bryan Miller crawls out of his hole to gleefully dance in the puddles. And get this, he brings up the whole penis = gun thing. For an 8 year old....

Many people ask what is a NFA Trust and how is it different from a living trust or revocable living trust.  A NFA trust is a trust document that has been customized to deal with the specific legal issues surrounding the transfer, possession, and use of firearms that are restricted by the National Firearms Act.  These items includ...

It reminds me of what I blogged about the day before....

The Outdoor Wire, an outdoor sports industry resource, is reporting that Barack Obama's prematurely-established 'transition team' is already considering changes to the National Instant Criminal Background Check (NICS) for firearms purchases that would allow gun purchase records to be stored on government servers.

Dave Hardy notes that contributions are listed for Daniel Cooper in two states, which are high enough to take him over the legal campaign contribution limit: Egad; looks as if he might be involved in the reports of Obama illicit donations. Go here to see contributions by Dan or Daniel Cooper. $3,100 to Obama from a Dan Cooper in Montana, president...
