MMMM MMMMM MMMMM Barak Hussien Obama.

Posted By Ron Streetenberger

I see that B.H.O. wants to extend the school year for our children. This will give our little ones more time to memorize the songs extolling his wonderful virtues. I'm giddy with excitement awaiting these profound lyrics. Has Joseph Goebles become the new music Czar?

William 540mm f7 ED APO triplet telephoto lens

Posted By Ron Streetenberger

Using the scope as a telephoto lens on my Sony A200 SLR at DFW airport. This session showed what a great, color free performer this scope is. The 777 was about .5 miles away and Dallas is 17 miles distant.

Liberal idiots plan to reduce population.

Posted By Ron Streetenberger

A vast reduction in CO2 will produce a decrease in vegatation, decreasing the planet's food supply and result in a decrease of all mammals, including humans. No global warming will be neccessary for this to happen. I believe that a temperature decrease of just three degrees from what we currently experience could set off another ice age. Wouldn't it be wonderful to see the glaciers of the world growing again? Which scenario appeals to the climate control idiots?

Use a scope for photography?

Posted By Ron Streetenberger

If you shoot in good light with a DSLR/telescope combination and would like more depth of field, here's a good solution for those who use a typical 80mm scope. I have found that the plastic covers on nut cans are 4 inches in diameter and a perfect fit on most of these scope's dewshields. All one need do is cut out a hole in the cover's center of whatever diameter you wish: I found that a 2 inch hole makes my f7 scope an f16. I blacken the cover with a chisel tip black marker to ensure no glare. I find that this system produces sharper images more often than those made without the light reduction cover in place. Cheap is good,free is best.

Islam for infidel dummies

Posted By Ron Streetenberger

Kill yourself or we will have to do it for you. Isn't that simple? Political correctness trys to eliminate the recent history of Islam's effect on our lives. Even the commanding general of the U.S. Army has fallen victim to it. [B]ALL[B] religiously inspired attacks on earth have been by Muslims and yet the liberal forces in the world do not charge them with their crimes. This shall not stand. Wake up people, put aside your cowardice and face the enemy. Muslims are not your friends. How many Ft. Hoods, 9/11's, Beltway snipers, and plots discovered, will it take for you to realize that you are a target?

Obama's Occidental College transcript.

Posted By Ron Streetenberger

So what if he applied for, and received, a Fulbright Foreign Student Scholarship. What does that prove? (a) He's a liar, or (b) He's not a citizen of the United States? Pick one.
