Hi,
Representative Tom Rooney (R-Fla.) TOLD us there are only MINOR?????? changes in the Federal Restrict Buildings and Grounds Improvement Act of 2011(S.1794) with bill HR347 and he dismissed concerns saying that tests over the changes are "a whole lot of kerfuffle over nothing".
KERFUFFLE--WHAT A WONDERFUL WAY TO SAY FUSS OR RUDER WORDS!!!!!!!!!!!!
However much this blogger may enjoy the language, the logic escapes your correspondent because as Congress continues to make minor adjustments to "THIS N'THAT" bill, it causes more and more concern as these seemingly harmless and protective measures continue to erode America's Constitution AND FREEDOMS.
This blogger doesn't fancy having intruders invade the President's bedroom. God forbid a young man in his prime should have to defend his wife. However, this blogger seems to recall that the White House USED TO BELONG TO THE CITIZENS OF THIS COUNTRY. AND IT IS NOW OFF LIMITS TO THEM FOR ALL PRACTICAL PURPOSES OTHER THAN GUIDED TOURS. Okay it was a necessity caused by DERANGED NUTS but there have always been DERANGED NUTS.
THOSE SAME NUTS GO TO THE THEATRE AS ABRAHAM LINCOLN COULD TESTIFY IF HE HADN'T BEEN SHOT in the THEATRE BY ONE.!!!!!!!!!!!
AMERICA HAS BECOME A RIDICULOUSLY OVER-PROTECTIVE NATION! Yes, it is the job of government to protect the people but short of providing each citizen with an armed guard, this blogger believes that protection was concerned with intrusion from other nations, NOT FROM ARMED NUTS ON THE WHITE HOUSE GROUNDS. WE have a SECRET SERVICE FOR THAT (WHEN THEY'RE NOT IN COLUMBIA CONSORTING--TALK ABOUT A KERFUFFLE!!!!!!!!!!!)WE HAVE SKY MARSHALS ON AIRLINES TO STOP NUTS FROM TAKING OVER plus continued STRIP SEARCHING for passengers with DANGEROUS NAIL CLIPPERS so even the most intrepid travelers find AIR TRAVEL unpleasant.
This blogger remembers having auto trouble in Washington and my mate driving off to have it fixed, leaving the three of us on the capitol lawn under a shade tree to picnic while he was gone. Under the present OVER-PROTECTIVE NONSENSE, ONE SUPPOSES THE PICNIC MIGHT BE QUESTIONED ON THE GROUNDS OF CONTEMPLATING MAYHEM!!!!!!!!!!
RIDICULOUS, YES, BUT SO IS A FELONY CHARGE PENALTY UNDER the newly passed P.L. 112.98 (former H.R.347, revising 18 USC 1752) THIS ADDITION passed by both parties this month for violating whatever SACRED SPACE THE LAW CHOOSES TO DESIGNATE when they tweak THE SAME LAW A LITTLE, AGAIN NEXT YEAR.
Frankly, it has reached the point that this blogger would like to suggest CONGRESS pass a bill RESTRAINING CONGRESS FROM PASSING ANY MORE LEGISLATION ON PROTECTIVISM UNTIL THE SWALLOWS REACH CAPISTRANO AS WELL AS RESTRAINING CONGRESS FROM TWEAKING, TWATING, SWATING, OR ATTACHING TO CURRENT LEGISLATION.
JOHN BOEHNER HAS CERTAINLY attempted to keep the Congress from causing MANY more problems and has taken a lot of heat for it. This blogger says HOORAY AND THANKS TO BOEHNER for making Congress have some RESTRAINT!!!!!!!!!!! If he hadn't-think of all the KERFUFFLES THEY MIGHT also HAVE CAUSED.
CNN OPINION IN DISCUSSING the Ted Nugent "THREAT TO SOCIETY??????" AND OBAMA IN PARTICULAR!!!!!!!! ADMITTED THAT NUGENT DID NOT MAKE A LITERAL THREAT (READ THE COMMENTS. This blogger CAN'T EVEN FIND AN UN-LITERAL THREAT (JUST HYPERBOLE) AND A STATEMENT OF NUGENT'S LIKELY OUTCOME) THERE WAS NO THREAT AGAINST THE PRESIDENT NOR DID NUGENT BREAK ANY LAW!!!!!!!!!!SINCE (AND this blogger SAYS THIS QUICKLY IN CASE IN CASE IT DISAPPEARS OVERNIGHT) NUGENT AND AMERICA STILL HAVE FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION AND SPEECH GUARANTEED IN THE CONSTITUTION!!!!!!
By the way CNN stated that "threats against President Obama have jumped 400% over those made against President George W. Bush". Think maybe he's doing more wrong than Bush????????? Maybe A "CHANGE" IN OBAMA POLITICS IS NEEDED RATHER THAN OVER-PROTECTION for him.
Considering that Congress TWEAKED THE ACT OF 2011 WITH HR347 so as to include more SAFETY factors including the President's safety WHAT DO YOU THINK THE LIKELIHOOD IS THAT SOME GOOF OUT THERE IN WASHINGTON LA LA LAND IS PREPARING ANOTHER TWEAK soon TO ADDRESS THE KEFAFFLE OF "THE MOTOR CITY MADMAN"????????????? AND WILL CALL IT BILL###BIG MOUTHS SO THAT ALL MOUTHS ARE CLOSED FOR GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!! NUGENT WAS SIMPLY EXERCISING HIS RIGHTS UNDER THE FIRST AMENDMENT.
You see this kind of OVER-PROTECTIVE MADNESS just builds on itself. It's hard to believe that AMERICANS are only a few generations away from the OLD WEST WHERE MEN WERE MEN AND WOMEN WERE TOO!!!!!!!!! Are we all such WIMPS anymore that we can't stand up to BULLIES, PROTESTORS, AND THE LIKE. Congress certainly needs TO BE looking after our FINANCES RATHER THAN USING PRECIOUS TIME to PASS OVER-PROTECTIVE LAWS FOR WIMPY CANDIDATES AND PUBLIC SERVANTS?????????????
Last week I mentioned Boortz' phrase "Obsessive-Compulsive Compassion Disorder" so this blogger hopes he'll forgive TAKING a page out his book by calling this current protective panic: "OBSESSIVE-COMPULSIVE PROTECTION DISORDER". Sorry, but it fits so well!!!!!!
ISN'T IT TIME WE GREW UP AS A NATION AND NOTICED THAT IT IS NOT ALL A BED OF ROSES!!!!!!!!!There are a few thorns to be dealt with in human endeavors as well as IN rose bushes. Thugs have existed since TIME BEGAN and they are not nice people who do not care who knows it. Except perhaps the police, who by the way, already are in the business of protecting us from bodily harm. If readers don't think the police can do that then GET A BIG, BIG STICK to WHACK INTRUDERS WHO THREATEN THE SANCTITY OF LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
CHEERS, CONNIE
