Right Wing Trash

Liberal (Socialist) Rally Leaves Lincoln Memorial Ridden With Trash
The liberal “One Nation Working Together” rally in Washington Saturday was a trashy affair — much trashier than Fox News host Glenn Beck’s “Restoring Honor” rally held at the end of August, at least according to one member (who didn’t want to be identified by name)......The Daily Caller

“I consider [The Daily Caller’s article] to be highly inaccurate. The garbage at the “One Nation” rally was no different than any other rally. Trash, it seems, is apolitical......Bill Line, Spokesmen for the National Park Service

Looking at the pic of the trash can and the field behind it. I think those Liberal Socialist Commies did a fine job. For the real Pigs at the Trough, check out these comments.

The Stogie is sorry. He usually dosn't post Right Wing Propaganda but was asked to by a friend!

Honor the Fallen Bike Ride

It was an emotional night. Before we biked, I read the names of Diane and five other bicyclists killed while pedaling since July 29. Ed Collins then talked about the loss of his dad, LeRoy, and his frustration that the driver who killed his dad was never cited. Then we started pedaling and it was amazing to see the long line of bicyclists biking down Central Avenue.

Rahm Emanuel, Fuck You!

Howard Dean Calls Rahm's 'Contempt' For Base 'Devastating And Incredibly Demoralizing'
"I'm not looking to pick another fight with Rahm Emanuel, but the contempt with which he held the progressive wing of the party was devastating and incredibly demoralizing, That's basically saying to your own people -- you got us here, now FU."......Howard Dean

The Stogie will no longer be voting for the lesser of the two evils. From this day forward he will be voting his conscience, even if that means a much despise republican candidate gets elected. The two party system has to end. See you in November. And in 2012, he will support the real liberal.
So Fuck You Rahm Emanuel and the rest of your cohorts.

Robert Wexler: The Fire Breathing Quitter

The “Fire Breathing Liberal”

Has amnesia or simply misplaced his GPS system. For some strange reason, the very person who quit on District 19 like Sarah Palin did on the people of Alaska, wants to come back to his old stomping grounds. The former Congressman, who cost his district half a million dollars for a special election because he abandoned them and never lived in the district, now wants to come back and tell the people of Florida who they should vote for.

Guess what Robert- We have not forgotten.

Florida Panthers Boxed In

Before widespread development by humans, panthers in Florida were abundant. By the late 1980s, there were only about 20-30 left. A sustainable population is believed to be about 500-1,000, meaning a population that could survive without human intervention. However, so much of Florida’s land has been developed, there isn’t much panther habitat remaining.
