Not my word. Usually if someone calls something a “mongrel” it’s not in reference to something wonderful. An example would be referring to a dog as a mongrel would imply much crossbreeding, done only out of natural of instincts of what a dog does. This is not considered complimentary to a dog and I don’t suppose in making reference to any person or race.

Kagan participated in and whitewashed unethical ghostwriting and plagiarizing campaigns while Dean of Harvard Law School, as well as a cover up, and inserted her own false information into a report from the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) concerning partial birth abortions, that changed the entire view on the practice.

About her decision to vote for Kagan’s appointment, Sen. Collins said she has, “the intellect, experience, temperament and integrity” to serve as Supreme Court Justice. Yesterday, the other Senator from Maine, Olympia Snowe, said she too would vote to confirm Kagan and gave similar reasons for that decision saying, “with the strong intellect, respect for the rule of law, and understanding of the important but limited role of the Supreme Court that I believe is required.”

As with anyone eager to confirm Elena Kagan as a Supreme Court Justice, we must question even their ability to make rational judgments on others character. Who could look at Kagan’s record and believe she was a person of “integrity” or “respect for the law”, when she has thumbed her nose at the law and worked to cover it up.

Have our own ethics and moral guidelines become so clouded that actions such as those of Elena Kagan should be overlooked? That is certainly one conclusion I would have to make, unless, of course, Snowe and Collins are no different than the other 98 U.S. Senators who fail at their jobs miserably and haven’t spent anytime at all gathering facts about Elena Kagan.

Alabama Senator Jeff Sessions yesterday made comments attacking Kagan’s nomination saying it would be a “dangerous” appointment. The video (below) is 3:21 long and not once does Sen. Sessions refer to any specific reasons she would be a “dangerous” appointment other than he thinks she is cast in the mold of Barack Obama and specifically hand selected by the President for that purpose. He may be right but why not take the opportunity while addressing the rest of the Senate and specifically lay out all the unethical and law breaking reasons she would be a “dangerous” appointment? Yet, another example of a U.S. Senator failing his constituency by not speaking out with all the facts.

What’s to hide?

Four alternates also were selected during a special lottery drawing barbecue on Friday, July 23 in Lee. The lottery was hosted by Paul and Deanna House, whose son Sgt. Joel House was killed in Iraq in 2007, and Bill Emery, whose son Sgt. Blair Emery also was killed in Iraq in 2007.

“It is a privilege to attend the disabled Maine veterans moose permit lottery drawing at what’s called The House in the Woods, a welcoming place where the Houses bring veterans for outdoor recreational adventures, camaraderie and friendship,” said MDIF&W Commissioner Roland “Danny” Martin. “My appreciation is extended to Mr. and Mrs. House and Mr. Emery for hosting the event. Through your sorrow, you’re helping Maine veterans. The special controlled moose hunt permit for disabled Maine veterans is our way of joining you to say ‘thank you’ to veterans for their service.”

The Controlled Moose Hunt takes place from Aug. 16 through Sept. 25 and is not part of Maine’s annual recreational hunt. It is a targeted and focused effort to respond to farmers’ concerns about crop depredation and to address concerns about high incidences of moose/vehicle collisions along Routes 1 and 161. For several years, MDIF&W has increased the number of moose permits in this area during the recreational hunt to address the same concerns. The controlled hunt, however, provides greater flexibility for MDIF&W to effectively manage moose and reduce the negative impacts from moose in areas that may have “non-traditional” habitat that may not attract hunters.

This year’s controlled hunt will be the second consecutive one approved by the MDIF&W Advisory Council based on the recommendation of Commissioner Martin and the Department’s Wildlife Division. One-hundred permits, with 55 being allotted for landowners and 45 allotted for Maine Registered Guides, are awarded through a separate lottery and NOT as part of the recreational moose lottery.

In a letter that was read at the lottery drawing, Gov. John E. Baldacci said giving the disabled veterans the opportunity to take part in the controlled moose hunt is one way all Mainers can show their appreciation to those who have served in the military.

“Disabled Maine veterans have been able to obtain complementary hunting permits, and this program expands opportunities we offer to disabled veterans to enjoy the beauty of our great state,” Gov. Baldacci said.

This year, five additional permits were designated for Disabled Maine Veterans and the permits were to be drawn through a lottery. The names of four alternates also were drawn. More than 145 disabled Maine veterans entered the lottery, which was coordinated by Peter Ogden of Maine’s Bureau of Veterans Services.

The disabled veterans selected are:

· Francis J. Dumas, Augusta

· Robert E. Blais, Holden

· Michael A. McArthur, Orrington

· Darrell C. Grover, Orrington

· Douglas B. Kulisich, Norridgewock

The four alternates are:

· Larry E. Brooks, Mars Hill

· Leonard D. Hanson, Crawford

· Gilbert R. Rossignol, East Millinocket

· Philip A. Smearer, Waldo

While the sticker price is enough to scare the living global warming out of people, it’s what you get, or better yet, what you don’t get for all that money, which is a real joke. In addition, nobody promoting this “gasless carriage” will talk about the hidden issues.

For $41,000 you can travel up to 40-miles on a charge. That’s less than millions of Americans commute each day round trip to work. And don’t go looking for those “charging stations”, because the only ones around are at your house. Do you think your boss is going to let you plug in your ready-kilowatt-demanding, energizer bunny car for free while you’re at work? How many hours does it take to recharge the batteries?

But never fear, if you run out of battery, you have a gas powered generator that will help charge up your batteries to go a few more miles. Now that’s the old shrink your carbon footprint try!

They say there’s good in everything, so I got to thinking. Here’s what we should do. Make it mandatory that all Senators, Representatives, Cabinet members, Presidents, all government workers must drive an Obamamobile. No more chartered jets, no more privately commandeered military jets to hop around the globe, no more gas guzzling SUV-type limos for these hypocritical brain dead fools. Take it all away and give them a Volt. Think of the money we would save because these poor slobs couldn’t go farther than 40 miles away from the Washington Club Med.

Make sure you ask your Obama Motors dealer how much it’s going to cost you to charge up your car everyday. We all fear the cost of gasoline and what it will do to our economy and virtually everything else in our lives and yet we are stupid enough to think that those little brown plugs in the wall magically produce electricity for nothing. So, really! How much is it going to cost you to charge up your car each day? Don’t forget, that if Obama gets his Cap and Tax program in gear, it’s been projected that electric bills will soar.

What’s the projected life span of those batteries that power your Obamamobile? Don’t know? Some of the hybrid cars on the market today have a battery life of perhaps 5 years and a replacement cost that is nearly the same price as buying a new car.

But think of the money you’ll save by not having to buy gas……well, that’s assuming you think your electric charging fees will be free. Personally, I wouldn’t spend more than $5,000 on an automobile but then again I’m not one of your average completely in debt, living beyond one’s means, Americans. But for argument sake, let’s say that many people would spend $20,000 for a new car. I think that’s reasonable. Or they could spend an additional $21,000 so they could “save money”, by not buying much gas. (Read as saving the planet – Kumbaya)

At current gas prices, $21,000, divided by $2.75/gallon gasoline = 7,600 gallons. At let’s say, 20 miles to the gallon for your current car, that’s a distance of 152,000 miles. If you drive 20,000 miles each year, you could continue driving your car for an additional 7 1/2 years before you would spend as much money as you would be spending extra for an Obama Volt.

Why is it that we all need to own one of these? And what is the reason candidate Obama said he’d put a million of these useless pieces of crap on the roads by 2015.

Call me a tight wad and a cheap skate but if the opportunity presented itself, I’d be in Wal-Mart looking for lead replacement chemicals so I can run those cars that weren’t designed to run on lead-free gas.

So, for those of you with a new charge in your under shorts, head on down to your nearest Obama Motors dealer and get your order in for your very own electric car. If enough of you buy one, the price of gas will continue to drop and I like that idea a lot.

Here’s what Judge Bolton said about why she has to block the law from taking effect:

“There is a substantial likelihood that officers will wrongfully arrest legal resident aliens under the new (law),” Bolton ruled. “By enforcing this statute, Arizona would impose a ‘distinct, unusual and extraordinary’ burden on legal resident aliens that only the federal government has the authority to impose.”

Knowing full well that the Obama regime has no argument that profiling will take place, they have turned the tide in an attempt to rest their case on using the usurpation of “legal” immigrants’ rights. Since when did this administration give one iota about anyone’s rights?
