After watching this video I am ashamed and embarrassed. This event was only 8 years ago. Come on people, turn off the mind rotting E! Channel.
Now for the record, I’m not at all in to the whole 9/11 conspiracy thing as I believe there are nut jobs out there that actually hate us for who we are.
Not all of our elected officials are drinking the Kool-Aid. Watch this video of Representative Michele Bachmann from Minnesota calling out this administration.
It was hot…extremely hot, and humid…and 1,400 miles and three days later, I made it around the perimeter of the state. Here’s an article from the local newspaper. Although I prefer the term Motorcyclist rather than Biker, it was a decent article.
I went to the River City Radio Control Wings for Kids air show this weekend to marvel at the workmanship these guys put in their scale aircraft. There was a turbine jet that cost in excess of $10k and an amazing Vietnam era turbine Huey helicopter. The jet made a couple passes at around 200mph! On the final pass the rudder broke apart but he managed to land safely. Check out the pics here in the gallery.
When the fire fighter faces the challenge of being a great distance away from the fire or narrow environment has to be navigated a Firexpress fire fighting systems mounted on a motor cycle is the right choice for the task.
Texan Woman Told to Remove ‘Offensive’ American Flag From Office
Debbie McLucas comes from a patriotic family – her husband and both of her sons served in the U.S. military, and her daughter is currently deployed to Iraq on her second tour of duty as a combat medic.
So when McLucas arrived at work at a Texas hospital last Friday, she was stunned to be told that the Stars and Stripes she had hung in her office in advance of Memorial Day were offensive, and that the flag had been removed.
With budget deficits soaring and President Obama pushing a trillion-dollar-plus expansion of health coverage, some Washington policymakers are taking a fresh look at a money-making idea long considered politically taboo: a national sales tax.
Common around the world, including in Europe, such a tax — called a value-added tax, or VAT — has not been seriously considered in the United States. But advocates say few other options can generate the kind of money the nation will need to avert fiscal calamity.
At a White House conference earlier this year on the government’s budget problems, a roomful of tax experts pleaded with Treasury Secretary Timothy F. Geithner to consider a VAT. A recent flurry of books and papers on the subject is attracting genuine, if furtive, interest in Congress. And last month, after wrestling with the White House over the massive deficits projected under Obama’s policies, the chairman of the Senate Budget Committee declared that a VAT should be part of the debate.
We had a great turn out. About 27 of us gathered at the Wal-Mart parking lot in Madison. The slimy water crossings were a challenge again. Several riders fell and near the end of the ride Ken hit a huge pothole and crashed hard. His front rim was badly dented. See the RR below for the details and what happened during the roadside repair attempt.
