Chicago Mayor Daley on Guns

Fri, 05/28/2010 - 15:15

From the Tribune webpage ...

At a news conference last week, Chicago Reader reporter Mick Dumke dared ask the mayor why Daley felt the city's handgun ban was effective, what with so many shootings and murders in Chicago. Daley picked up a rifle and said:

"If I put this up your butt, you'll find out how effective it is. Let me put a round up your, you know."

Whoa, Nellie!

Sun, 05/23/2010 - 23:57

Phil Pozerdarc hosts "Positively Unconstitutional" every Saturday morning from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. CST on the www.RepublicBroadcating.org network.

He always has fascinating discussions, callers and guests.
This last week, he had a caller, Roger from Kansas, expound upon the meaning, significance and function of the last clause of Article V of the Constitution. He stated that it was the most controversial clause of the entire convention. He stated that it was the last clause approved before it went to a vote of the states.

It reads:

"... and that no State, without its Consent, shall be deprived of equal Suffrage in the Senate."

"I love both Obama's because together, at least one of them is always right!"

"There's a little something in Obama for everyone to love, you just have to find the right Obama for you."


"You see, one way or another Obama is right!"

Amazingly Cogent OpEd in the NYTimes

Mon, 05/17/2010 - 10:15

You may do a double take on the source of this surprisingly balanced, cogent analysis of the onward march of big government and its inability to solve problems.

Excerpt from The Great Consolidation: "If consolidation creates a crisis, the answer is further consolidation. If economic centralization has unintended consequences, then you need political centralization to clean up the mess. If a government conspicuously fails to prevent a terrorist attack or a real estate bubble, then obviously it needs to be given more powers to prevent the next one, or the one after that."

Phone Interview w Pam Dennis

Thu, 05/13/2010 - 12:43

Below is a link to a 30 minute interview I conducted with Pamela Dennis on Thursday May 13, 2010.

Ms. Dennis alleges she was denied a jury trial in 2002 over a city ordinance violation issue related to the animals she was keeping in her home, which she claims she ended up winning anyway in 2003. However, she claims that in 2008 when she needed to access those records again for some reason those records had been changed, showing she did not win the case.

Further, in October 2009 Ms. Dennis states she was evicted from the home she had lived in for nearly 25 years, her mother's home at 182 17th Ave, East Moline, IL (her mother who owns the home is named Dorothy Dennis, and she lives in AZ now). Ms. Dennis claims she was given a 24 hour notice that the city did not uphold, rather physically removing her from her home in October 2009, citing that Lt. Regan from the E. Moline police department grabbed her and bruised her and she was not given the 24 hours to gather her things and make arrangements for her animals. She claims she has been told if she goes back on the property, she will be arrested for trespassing and the city took her keys.

She claims that the mortgage is continued to be paid and taxes are up to date on the property. Meanwhile, she is living with her son in Davenport, Iowa now.

She claims that the day she was removed from her home, Patty Ranch (sp?) and Gail Parker from Animal control were also both there.

Ms. Dennis' theory is that the city of E. Moline wants to control that property for some reason and that they are violating resident's rights in order to gain control.

Mother's Day on the Arsenal Island

Mon, 05/10/2010 - 23:15

Sunday afternoon, I drove my wife Kathleen's Uncle Bill to the Arsenal Island Cemetery in Rock Island, IL. Bill wished to visit his wife's grave, having been married to her for over 60 years and missing her sorely...she had been laid to rest here over three years ago. Bill and his wife Carmella both worked on the Arsenal Island prior to WWII. Bill went off to the east coast to train fighter pilots in flying P-49's and P-51's while Carm stayed home working as a typist during the 40's. They had two sons, William and Thomas. Bill put a single rose, for each son, amongst the two dozen carnations he placed at her headstone this sunny, cool afternoon.
