Town Hall Gunman gets a D in fashion

All over the internet I’m hearing “Gun-toting Man Draws Scrutiny Outside Obama Town Hall.”

Many are pointing to the shirt, which read "It Is Time To Water The Tree Of Liberty" as an obvious threat to take the head of the President, but what I’ve gotten from it is that he just doesn’t know how to pick quotes.

If the shirt had used the Jefferson quote, “When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty.” If he had said that then he would have been displaying a great message.

Maybe this was not the message he meant to send, but it is what America should get from his actions. Of course the Democrats will make sure that the message they send it, “Those crazy conservatives are willing to kill for Rush Limbaugh.”

Penn and Teller Bullshit: Taxes

This is just a suggestion to watch the new Penn and Teller: Bullshit that came out today (August 6, 2009). It is the 7th episode in episode 7 and the subject taxes. I think most of America (me included) could use a Bullshit free explaination of taxes, because we are being taxed more than ever before. The Republicans have Tea Parties and the Democratics are trying to tax us out of Capitalism, so it will be great to see the side opposing both of them.

Over the years Bullshit has been a show about debunking the myths in society today. They take no prisoners, whether they talk about Chiropracting, Bottled Water, Lie Detectors, or Illegal drugs.

I haven't been able to catch this show yet because I don't have Showtime, but as soon as it is available on Amazon (or I visit a friend who recorded it) I will watch it and maybe write a review on it if I feel like it is a good episode.

If anyone has seen it and would like to comment that would be great, but really this is just a suggestion to tune in if you don't usually watch the show.
