1. For those of you who shoot .22LR and might be in the market for a good sale on ammo, RI Red sends along this:
Remington .22 Long Rifle Ammunition. US Military contract Remington .22LR ammunition 1990s production. Original packaging, 5,000 round case, consisting of ten (10) 500 round bricks made up of ten (10) 50 round boxes each. The 5,000 round case is over packed in a sealed foil barrier for long term storage. This ammunition has a 40 gr., lead round nose projectile and a velocity of approximately 1135 fps., at the muzzle. NLU is 4S22RSURP-5000 and price is $125 + $24.95 S&H per case. Ammo is now available on the CMP E-store but will not be available in the CMP Stores for another two weeks.
Me, I just picked up 5000 rounds earlier this month; cost me about $50 more than this; same 40 gr. lead round nose style. So it’s a good deal if you want to jump on it.
For my purposes, I really need to stock up on 7.62×51. Hoping to pick up a thousand rounds. I found a good deal on bulk, but I fell a couple hundred dollars short of picking it up during my latest fundraiser. Hoping to purchase it at the beginning of November in advance of the election. Just to be sure. Because, well, zombies.
2. Our old friend Robb Allen who runs the gun blog Sharp as a Marble has a birthday wish in advance of his Oct 15 birthday: Do something nice for others. If that sounds a little new-agey to you, too bad. It’s his birthday, and besides — it couldn’t hurt. I plan on taking some extra time for my oldest on Saturday, maybe go shooting or play a game with him. Also? I won’t put my foot in anybody’s ass that day.
Unless they start it.
3. Via Terry H, “Obama ‘believed he had BEATEN Romney’ in Denver debate – after ignoring advice of top aides on preparation”. Yes. He is that delusional. I didn’t think it was the drubbing some did, but at the same time, all I thought was that Obama’d held serve with the takers who adore him and the women he was looking to shore up with all his talk of education. But to think he won the debate one would have to be certifiable.
So now we know.
4. And finally, two words: ignorant scrunt.
It only took eight people, three buildings, three hours, and two hundred dollars to pay my bulk trash fine today.
And people say the system’s broken.
The armory has the same .308 ammo for a bit less right now, $515 per 1000.
Oops. With shipping, it’s likely about the same price.
Yup, shipping was $30.00.
Texas schools punish students who refuse to be tracked with microchips
Texas isn’t safe either, then. I guess there is still Alaska.
I just noticed that the ultra-stupid Obama Big Bird add mentions Ken Lay and Bernie Madof but makes NO MENTION WHATSOEVER OF A CERTAIN FORMER GOVERNOR OF NEW JERSEY WHO’S NAME SORT OF SOUNDS LIKE A COCKNEY TRIGONOMETRIC FUNCTION.
No mention of the guy at all! Why you’d think he was a straight arrow and man of honor or something! Some massive financial fraudsters are more equal than others I guess.
the ultra-stupid Obama Big Bird add mentions Ken Lay
wasn’t ken lay paul krugman’s employer?
Why, yes he was.
Trainwreck: Ohio Obama Rally Features Rap Version of Sesame Street Theme Song
Wow. It’s that superbowl half time show all over again only without Usher dropping in.
“…obama believed that he had beaten romney…”
my guess is that Obama never read “Death of a Salesman”
All this doubling down on the Big Bird thing is so stupid, and cringe-worthy.
PBS asked them to knock it off, too and they’re still running with it.
I smell landslide.
PBS asked them to knock it off, too and they’re still running with it.
– Although there’s always the chance that PBS ran a sort of plausible deniability thing, (because of some delay in timing), they didn’t just “ask”, they demanded both sides cease and desist, hinting at copyrights and such.
– Its not that PBS isn’t rabidly Leftwing, its because they’re about to head into their fall fund-raising gig, and they don’t want to piss off any of their Conservative donors needlessly.
– Also the consensus at PBS, among the staff (I have a close friend that works at the station on the campus of San Diego State U) is that Bummblefuck has been a total disappointment and disaster in both his term and the campaign and is poised to get his half white ass thoroughly kicked, so they see no reason to get involved and lots of down side.
OBAMA LIED, OUR AMBASSADOR DIED: ABC: No Protest Outside Libya Consulate Before Attack.
Actually, it was Sesame Workshop, not PBS.
They’ve changed the statement since it was issued, which used to be this:
Surely, they’re now also referring to this.
– Jebus….What a pack of lying fucking jackals. Some of those sumbitches need a greybar vacation. You bet your ass they “needed to get this out before the hearings.”.
– I sincerely hope this is a torpedo right through the Obama ship wreck of state.
– And I don’t believe for a second all the piss-ant press didn’t already know this shit within hours, if not the first couple of days, when Jug ass and Hilldebeast were standing over the coffins lying their asses off.
– And you gotta love the play-acting of Sawyer….”This is incredible new details Carl…”
– Sure.
On eve of House hearings, State Department finally admits: No, there was never any protest outside the Benghazi consulate before the attack
– If you thought there was rending of clothes,
pearl clutching, and screeching among the adult teenagers before this, wait until the hearings get under way tomorrow.
– Rice is toast, and Hillery won’t be runnibg for anything but her life after this.
– Of course Obama will do the “I didn’t know” mambo, but they’ll be another layer of bodies under the bus before this is over.
– And his campaign? They might as well just tell Biden to sit and smile and pick his nose for all its going to matter at this point.
This is what a preference cascade looks like, at least at the beginning. It’ll intensify.
Karl Rove’s outfit, American Crossroads has a really great ad out today (that naturally I can’t find now) about the cover-up in Chris Stevens death and the grandstanding with the coffins at Andrews.
It ends with “What did the president know and when did he know it?”
Barrack Milhouse Obama.
– Jimmah Milhouse Obama/
– HuffPoop is, of course, not touching this, afraid to breath out no doubt. So I dropped a hand grenade in the cockroach patch.
– Yahoo is running it, using a soft peddle lede of course, but the comments section is an absolute explosion of angry people. If they were hoping they could temporize it all away, they’ll be disappointed, to say the least.
– I’ve held off until now, but I truly believe Jug Ears is one and done after this.
Things Fall Apart tells two intertwining stories, both centering on Okonkwo, a “strong man” of an Ibo village in Nigeria. The first, a powerful fable of the immemorial conflict between the individual and society, traces Okonkwo’s fall from grace with the tribal world. The second, as modern as the first is ancient, concerns the clash of cultures and the destruction of Okonkwo’s world with the arrival of aggressive European missionaries. These perfectly harmonized twin dramas are informed by an awareness capable of encompassing at once the life of nature, human history, and the mysterious compulsions of the soul.

– Now is not the time for “refined research” nr. Now is the time for 100 cannon broadsides using 16 lb balls and low yield nukes dropped from balconies.
– The only result that would come close to retribution for what that son of a bitch has done to our country is to see him resign in total disgrace.
i was going for the clown car angle and wheels
– Ahhh.
He’ll never resign, BBH. He’ll have to be dragged out kicking and screaming, clutching a bust of Lincoln.
Nixon had class, he didn’t raise a stink when Kennedy cheated his way into office and he quit, rather than be impeached. Barry, not so much.
I wonder if he and his bride will behave at the Inaguration? I’ll bet you a dollar they both wear sunglasses the whole time—to hide their swollen, cryin’ eyes. Mechelle will have to have more plastic surgury to remove her scowling permanent bitch-face.
– If this is as bad as it looks, impeachment is on the table. Could you see Romney standing there at the last debate, sympathy all over his face toward Obama, how small and insignificant the golden Erkal would look, the calls for the pity vote.
– I’m definitely going for a big batch of popcorn for tomorrows festivities on Cspan.
Yes! Chaffetz is loaded for bear. The hearings will be great after we slog through all the procedural bullshit.
Heck of a job, Barry!
Yes. He is that delusional.
I knew he would never subject himself to a minute more of debate prep than he actually had to.
I would also like to go on record as having predicted that Obama would eventually become bored with being POTUS. When did I predict? Why, 2008, IIRC, on this very blog.
Good luck finding it. <smirk>
President Obama has achieved every goal he held going into the presidency.
Except that this economy will simply.not.DIE.
Other than that, he’s overseen the final dissolution in public trust of the electoral process, destroyed the separation of powers/checks and balances provisions of the Constitution, and pretty well destroyed the Executive branch as an organization intended to accomplish any discernible adult function.
It truly is become a bunch of teenagers on Daddy’s credit card. Truly.
He didn’t have to do squat to Congress, or the Court, it turns out. Approval running around 5% for the former, and the latter basing it’s deliberations on political calculation so transparent that Madonna wouldn’t wear it for Confirmation are all you need to know that they are done, to, to a turn.
I can’t wait to see the final act. It will make “Downfall” look like a Ben Stiller comedy.
I’m voting against the O. I just don’t have it in me to vote for anybody out there.
Jeff, refresh me – what flavor of .308 goodness did you end up with? I ask because cheap FMJ is always nice to have in bulk, but some gas operated platforms can be finicky about soft or hollow point loads. And soft and/or hollow point loads should always be on hand, too, for that cheery subsistence-hunting-after-the-apocalypse thing that may happen.
I am not a.308 shooter (lo these last twenty years or so) but you should investigate what brands/grains/muzzle velocities are appropriate for your beast.
Here is the ad I referenced above.
Edit to the above –
“…the latter basing ITS deliberations on political calculation…”
John Boehner is going to let Issa pull the trigger on impeachment?
You need to stop huffing spray paint man.
So after they clean out their desks and leave, one hopes in disgrace, where do Hill and the rest of this merry band go from here?
I know! The World Bank!
That’s good for target, plinking and, of course, zombies.
What are you planning to shoot reavers, hobgoblins, bikers, hippies and other assorted two-legged vermin with?
Forgot about about the. .45 —so never mind.
The next few months are looking less and less like a real election cycle and more and more like one of Gilbert Gottfried’s long complicated sick jokes that ends with a self consuming cannibal saying “Wow, you midgets were right! I do taste even better with cancer! “
– Is this the place where we say “the ends of Obama justify the means.”
– Huffpoop finally put the story up with a misleading lede, down page beneath the ongoing Big Bird “news”, and they’ve been having so much “trouble” moderating comments.
– Comments are scathing, and still some of the adult teenagers try to deflect and excuse. They’ve obviously drank so much of the Koolaide they have no working minds left.
– Obama could murder someone and they’d still support their god.
-………
-………
– Oh, wait……..
Pub post huh?
This does allude to the bored thing.
Wow, that was heavy BBH. I mean, we’ve all be saying that for awhile but you just made me realize, now we’re actually seeing it in real time.
How scary is that…
we’ve all been saying…
PBS
– Ernst, Obama was already hanging by his fingernails when he lost the Hollyweird phony glam in the debate.
– If the piss-ant media see’s its hopeless you’ll see the biggest dive since the Titanic.
– We’ll know by weeks end. Biden may never have to make a fool of himself after all, or whether he does or not may be entirely anti-clamatic at this point.
– Hillery? She may already be a lost cause for 2016, if she ever really intended to make a run anyway. Obama is scewed six ways to Sunday. Hes caught in maybe the biggest scandal since Watergate, maybe worse with the deaths involved, while hes out on the stump making lame jokes about Big Bird.
– I see no way for him to recover from this. Romney doesn’t even matter anymore. This is all about Obama’s total incompetemce, or worse, duplicity.
geoffb, so I guess that means Obama is the artist formally known as Indonesian Prince…
Con-artist I’d say but otherwise I like that.
HA! much better.
I love those little bullets. But you can get them at WalMart for around a penny a piece. Not preparing for an apocalypse, so we only keep ~500 of them on hand.
They’re excellent for shooting at crows trying to eat our pecans. I haven’t actually hit one yet though, so ‘excellent’ might be too strong of a word.
If you’ve lost PBS…
All of that could be true bbh and still have no bearing on impeachment being on the table.
If anything, the fact that he’s likely to be turned out of office anyways makes it less likely that there would be talk of impeaching Obama.
Who has the stomach to go through another round of impeachment hearings? Not I, that’s for sure.
As you say, Ernst, Barry will be gone soon enough.
I say we all shun him.
Shun him? After four years of him inserting himself into every facet of my life? Not a chance!
Get in his face. Push back twice as hard. Ambush every public appearance and private function where he’s invited to speak. Buzz his domicile with drones day and night. Force him into seclusion, and then start writing the histories and biographies that examine just exactly how he got installed in office, and just how much damage he did there.
Shunning don’t even begin to do it.
He brings a knife we bring a gun, eh? That works, too.
I’d make them keep incredibly detailed accounts of every dime they spent. “Well, Mr. president. It appears that you and the missus are spending an awfully lot of money on hootch and smokes. If you want to make it to the end of March on budget, you’re going to have to slow down on the dining out, as well. And this bill from Whole Foods? Holy moly!”
“What’s that? ‘What’s a budget?'”
