Obama chooses a lock ’em up drug warrior as VP? You gotta be kidding!
I read of a recent drug sting on August 8, in Maryland, where a police dog sniffed positive on a package that was then intercepted, but instead of just confiscating the marijuana, under-cover police decided to go ahead and deliver the package (possession and delivery of a controlled substance). The home of a Maryland mayor was then staked out. When they observed the residents take the package into the house, which was apparently left on the front porch, armed masked police intruders burst into the home (breaking and entering), shot and killed the two family dogs (brandishing and assault with a deadly weapon) threatened the mayor and his mother-in-law, handcuffed them and held them for two hours (attempted kidnapping) before realizing that the package was sent to the wrong address. Charges were not filed against the Mayor or his mother-in-law, but they should have been filed against the police!
This is what’s ruining America today. Cops gone wild. This isn’t a war against “drugs.” If it were, it would have stopped at confiscation of the package. But if there’s no dynamic action raid, then there’s no adrenaline rush. In short, no joy for the thug warrior crusaders unless they do these high-risk raids.
The sad truth is, we in America are much more likely to be killed by a police officer, than by terrorists, and that’s un-American.
Obama-you could have done better. Maybe I’ll write Bill Gates.

Obama has roughly the same credentials to be President as my Bostercorg neutered male, Angus McNip. If you like the idea of Joe Biden running our foreign policy and being the actual Commander in Chief, because when that 3 o’clock call comes in, and Hillary agrees, Obama will be running in circles with soiled shorts, loudly clucking, “The sky is falling. The sky is falling,” vote for this limp non-dynamic duo. Otherwise, pick Hillary’s and Biden’s original choice ‘don’t worry, been there, done that,’ John McCain.
Wake up, America!
C.T. Belza: Sarah Palin has roughly the same credentials to be Vice President as your Bostercorg neutered male, Angus McNip. If you like the idea of Sarah running our foreign policy and being the actual Commander in Chief, because when that 3 o’clock call comes in, and Hillary agrees, McCain will be running in circles with soiled shorts, loudly clucking, “The sky is falling. The sky is falling,” vote for McCain-Palin.
Stop emoting anonymous. I’m more likely to be killed by “cops gone wild?”
You apparantly have a chip on your shoulder over a bad trip you had with the police.
Relax and chill out to an old Cheech and Chong album.
Peace, dude.
