FEEDBACK: We Need Reader Feedback

We need some reader feedback.

As you have noticed we have been lax in getting mew posts online. We have had complaints about the new format being slow to load and other issues so we have been devoting some time trying to figure out how to correct these problems and are looking at a new format that will be faster and easier on our readers. We have made some recent changes to try and correct some of these problems and would like to hear back from you so we can tell if our readers have seen any improvement. The whole Google Blogger is making changes that don’t seem to be for the better in our opinion but we will have to deal with them if we want to stay on this venue. We just got notice that additional “upgrades” on Google will be added in August also.

Please let us know if you are having any issues with our present format.

Rep. Mike Bost goes Nuclear

This State Representative loses his cool and makes a heck of a scene on the Illinois house floor a couple of days ago.  It seems that Representative Mike Bost is tired of the House Speaker forcing votes on bills no one has had a chance to even read.  While his antics are a bit over the top the first thing that came to mind was that if our own Senators Baucus and Tester would have insisted that all bills be read before the vote we wouldn’t have had Obama Care shoved down our throats.  Thanks again Jon for being the last vote needed to pass that job killing health care bill.

A Big Thanks to our Military on this Memorial Day

For years, Memorial Day was celebrated May 30. Then, in 1971, Congress passed the National Holiday Act moving most federal holidays to Mondays to ensure a three-day weekend. Since that time, Memorial Day has been observed on the last Monday in May.

Today we stop to remember those that died protecting our freedoms. Memorial Day, which was originally called Decoration Day, is the official day of remembrance for those who have died in our nation’s service. Remembering fallen soldier dates clear back to civil war times. The first official day of observance was proclaimed on May 5th, 1868 by General john Logan who was the National Commander of the Grand Army and was first observed on May 30th, 1868 when folks got together to place flowers on the graves of both Union and Confederate soldiers at Arlington National Cemetery President Lyndon Johnson and Congress made the day into a three-day weekend with the National Holiday Act of 1971 which calls for the day to be observed the last Monday of May each year.

We would like to say thank you to all of those that have died so that we might remain free. We all know that freedom isn’t free.

Why we are entering the age of Ron Paul

Obama Bucks

I am beginning to think that the non-working people that vote for the person most apt to continue all these wonderful government “programs” allowing them their life of leisure are finally out numbering those of us that think able bodied people should work for a living.  The following is an interview with some people found standing in line in front of the New York welfare office. One guy even says we owe him because his ancestors were slaves.  I guess in his mind the 149 years that have passed since the Emancipation Proclamation is to short of time to become a part of a capitalistic working society.  Republicans shouldn’t be surprised if in fact our Dear Leader is re-elected because people receiving from the federal government outnumber people that are giving to the federal government.

The next video interviews  people last election that actually voted for Obama.  See any problems?

Dear Leader: Gas Prices for Dummies

I am staying close to Havre this Memorial Day.  It just costs too much to buy fuel to make unnecessary trips just for the sake of gallivanting around the country.  Anyone remember Dear Leader’s explanation for our high gas prices a few months ago?  If not be sure and watch the re-run of his blathering performance before you cast your vote for President.

And The Award for Best Actor Goes Too...

Yesterday during the White House press briefing, Wendell Goler with Fox News, asked Jay Carney, White House Press Secretary, about the President's past support for the Occupy Movement and whether or not he's changed his mind in light of the recent Chicago occurences.


It's so painful to watch it's amusing, but in reality, we were quite embarrased for poor Mr. Carney.  Clearly maintaining the most serious composure while attempting to cover for Barack Hussein Obama is most certainly worth the Best Actor nod at the 2013 Oscars in our humble opinion.  Congratulations Jay, on your achievement!

Don't You Dare Kill that Rattlesnake

Sorry for the lack of attention to this blog the last week.  It is spring and we all needed a little vacation from reading news reports about what is wrong with the world.  Personally, I have discovered that reading about all the stupid ways our government and government officials waste our tax resources and hinder economic progress depresses me and I took a much needed vacation from it all.   Today’s most idiotic story is brought to you from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

 It seems that some of our good environmental wacko-nuts have convinced the Federal Fish and Wildlife Service that the highly venomous eastern diamondback rattlesnake is getting close to extinction and should be listed as an endangered species. In 2011 the Center for Biological Diversity filed a petition to add the rattlesnake to the endangered species list.

“Survival of these snakes in large part depends on whether people continue to persecute them or instead choose to allow these amazing creatures to share the land with us,” said Bill Matturro of Protect All Living Species. “In the Southeast, we are blessed with a rich natural heritage of animals and plants. All of these species — even the rattlesnakes — should be allowed to exist.”

Isn’t this story heart-warming.? A nasty creature that has wrecked havoc on the country since clear back in the Garden of Eden has a fan club protecting them from “persecution” and on your tax dime to boot. So when you encounter a rattler this summer be sure and keep in mind the poor folks that want to save the rattlers before you whack them with your shovel.

The Midwest Fish and Wildlife Website (take note of the date of publication) was advocating the protection of snakes since way back in November of 1999 which has to lead me to believe that some of our government paid officials are intertwined with some of these outrageous environmental groups that are pushing for all these nonsensical agendas. Be sure and read the linked stories about this drive to protect the snakes at the links in red above.

Havre GOP Kicking Off for 2012 Elections

I just noticed this weekend that the local GOP has again opened an office next to the Hank Tweeten Auto Body shop.  This is the same office they used last election to head up their election efforts that resulted in historic GOP victories in the Havre area.  What we found unusual last time was the total lack of effort on the local Democrats part to even try and retain any seats in what is typically a Democratic strong-hold.  Seems kind of early to open an office for local candidates but it is apparent the local GOP is not going to take anything for granted and have hit the ground running.

Anyone heard if the local Democrats are planning on hibernating thru the election again this year?  Let us know what they are up to at havredailycorrector@gmail.com and we will report to our readers.
