President Obama and the Democrap leadership call this bill “The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009″ but we all know it’s nothing more than a HUGE GIGANTIC COLOSSAL spending bill. I’m greatly pleased and satisfied that the Republicans are showing some spine.

I’m not holding my breath about the Senate, though. With members like McPain we really have no chance of showing a united Republican front in that body.

I got this email blast today from Fred Thompson:

Dear Friend,

The challenges America faces may appear overwhelming. But you and I both know that if we adhere to the founding principles of individual liberty, federalism, and truly limited government, there is no obstacle the American people cannot overcome.

But the forces driving our country away from those First Principles are strong. They demand an ever-increasing growth in government, higher and higher taxes, and a judiciary that makes law and social policy instead of sticking to the wisdom of the Constitution.

It’s clear that we need men and women in Washington and in the statehouses across America who believe, as we do, in the fundamental principles of limited government restricted by enumerated powers.

That is why I am announcing the takeover of the Republican party – I am returning the party to the principles that are the only sure salvation for America. Tonight, I will announce that I, and not John McAmnesty, will be the Republican nominee for President! The only thing John has done right in the past decade has been to pick Gov. Sarah Baracuda to be his running mate. This will not change with me. Sarah and I will be hunting RINOs together, soon.

Please visit our website at www.FredPAC.com. Learn how you can help.

Your support and assistance has meant a great deal to me and my family as we defended America ’s First Principles and defeat the asshole whiner RINOs who now control the party. I know that in the days ahead we will continue in the fight for a strong, free, secure America … together.

Thank you for all you do.

Sincerely,

The Cobra

Or maybe I just read a little more into it than was actually there. Let me know if any of you got this email and read between the lines…

Sarah was taught her love of firearms by Cousin Smedly Palin, the famed big game hunter. Smedly Palin’s exploits on the African veld are the stuff myths are made of! Here he is shown with the trophies of his most recent safari into the Amazon.

Sarah’s family includes some European royalty! Sir Sagimore Palin, shown to the right of dear family friend Arthur Pendragon above, is sure to be an asset in our attempts to regain our image over seas. He’s just a whiz making “clip-clop” noises with coconut shells.

Cousin ‘Nit’ may prove to be a problem. His love of Billy Beer and popping up at inappropriate times may be an embarrassment to the campaign.

This post is just in fun. I really am happy about the selection of Sarah Palin to be the VP candidate. I like her A LOT!
