An image I think we can all appreciate...

Posted By Jack Day
Sorry,

This is just more proof that Obama has no brain. If he were really as smart as he thinks he is, certainly he would have chosen to look through a REAL telescope, say a big Dobsonian!

(Unless of course you are an APO refractor freek, then insert AP or Tak as needed above!)

Updated: EVEN WORSE- He is not even looking through a Nagler! Small views for small minds I guess! wink Heck, it's not even a 2 inch eyepiece. What a waste. sad

Meanwhile, Back at the Gunstore

Hey Rod,

Do you shoot at all? I do once in a great while, and enjoy it when I have the chance. As I work in an IT related field one of may favorite targets is old hard drives and similar devices. They have it coming for all the trouble and stress they cause in peoples lives!

Strangely, since Obama has been elected I have not been tempted, or even once thought about, going out and buying a gun or any ammunition. Not one shell. Ok, I did buy some Muzzleloader maxi balls for hunting, but not any centerfire or rimfire cartriges.

Perhaps Obama should start a rumor that some other American products may soon be banned, then all us dummies can run out and stimulate the economy by buying American products. I suspect it is working in the firearms industry....

And another thing:

Why does CNN feel the need to use either a doctored photo, or a fake gun 'mock up' to represent "Evil Guns".

I mean come on, is this what passes as ethical today? Naw, no ajenda here!

The GOP Health Care Proposal Arrives!

Posted By Jack Day
Rod, please explain exactly what is 'guaranteed' to be gained by universal health insurance as you see it. I ask this based on John Stamm's post:

http://www.astromart.com/forums/viewpost.asp?forum_post_id=685205&poll_id=&news_id=&page=

that demonstrated that even with insurance, care can be denied; even after it has been ‘pre-approved’.

Also, once they get their insurance who exactly is going to provide the care?

http://www.nytimes.com/2009/04/27/health/policy/27care.html

I love this quote: One proposal — to increase Medicare payments to general practitioners, at the expense of high-paid specialists — has touched off a lobbying fight.

Great, now we can tell you that you have cancer, to bad there are not any cancer specialists to care for you. Have a nice death!

Orion: "We Don't Like Disappointing You"

Posted By Jack Day
Rod,

That is too bad. I am building a 17.5 inch scope and just got an email this morning that some of the parts I ordered were damaged and cannot be sent until replacements come in. Now I may not have them in time to finish my scope correctly for our August star party.... ARG!

I feel your pain... :S

Clear Skies,

Jack
