Your King Rants on the ACLU and Applauds another Terrorist Being Sent to Hell

A U.S. drone took out a major target in Yemen this week. The american born, and I hope I get this right, Anwar El Alaqi was taken out. Listening to the radio today I was hearing comments from the ACLU that this guy, since he was american born, should not have been killed and should have been given his day in court. Well, your King says PISS on the ACLU. Once this jerk joined Al Qeada he became an enemy combatant and subject to obliteration if located. He was located and obliterated and rightly so. To me it is once less prick that is alive in this world and I hope that all of those terrorists realize that we are eventually going to find them and when we do we will drop a drone, or some Navy Seals, on them too. The ACLU should keep their mouths shut when it comes to taking out a terrorist no matter where he may have been born. He picked the team he wanted to play for and became a major player for them. Once he did that he lost any rights, that the ACLU claims he should have been afforded, for his day in court. 2011 has been a very good year for the decimation of high level terrorists. Bin Laden is gone and now this guy has been sent packing. Now if we can only get the rest of them. Your King has spoken!

Your King Demands the Death Penalty for Mark Christie

If there is anyone in New York State that deserves the death penalty it is Mark Christie. This guy is a total sociopath who has, far as I know, 2 murders on his hands and probably more. What really sucks is that this guy is only 39 years old so he will be getting his room and board paid for by the taxpayers of this state for a good long time. He just plead guilty to the killing of an old lady today, a crime he committed when he was 16. It was a crime where some poor innocent sap got railroaded, forced into a confession, and spent 18 years in prison for the crime this bastard committed. He was a suspect for that crime when it was committed but the police did not want to really look at the evidence because they thought they had their man and boy were they wrong. It turns out that Kailie Poulton paid for the police's rush to judgment when she was killed by Christie eighteen years ago. She was only four years old at the time. Again, suspicion was not on Christie but was focused on her dad. Boy were the police wrong again. That poor man suffered the indignation of losing his daughter and being suspected of her death all the while Mark Christie was still free. How Christie was able to deflect suspicion off himself was amazing when evidence pointed towards his guilt. But somehow, despite the police's bumbling, he was finally caught and convicted.
I do not want my tax dollars paying for this jerk's jailtime. I want this creep executed but alas that will not happen bacause the court has ruled that New York State's version of the death penalty as unconstitutional. It is not like he has a chance to be reformed and return to the community. This guy will never see the outside of prison walls again and he deserves more than that. He deserves to sit on Old Sparky and have it turned all the way up to deep fry. I would even volunteer to pay for the juice used during the deep frying if only we could do that here in New York.
Well that is my rant for tonight as it just pains me to see that this guy will be fed and housed for the rest of his life on our dime.

Your Monarch Pontificates!!

1) Played golf this weekend. Nothing special about either round. Saturday I pointed on all but one hole but only finished +2. A couple of better holes and I would have won but I just couldn't score big. Pretty much played bogey golf throughout the round. For the most part I didn't have those killer holes that usually ruin a round except for my great 8 on fifteen but still managed to shoot 89. Sunday started off great as I had 10 points after 5 holes but then I crashed and burned and finished at -2 for the round. Only 7 points on the last thirteen holes and boy did that deflate me. Later, in the clubhouse known as the Nines Restaurant, I ordered my first plate of steamed clams in bayou broth with ciabbata(close but definitely not the right spelling) bread. I had never ordered any kind of steamed clams before but one of my friends ordered this the week before and it looked, and smelled good. I would much rather have my clams chowdered but I can definitely make a habit of this. If I had the recipe for the broth I would steam my own clams. Maybe someday.
2) The Bills!!! That is all I have to say. Well, maybe not. When I left the clubhouse on Sunday to head home the Patriots had a 14-0 lead so I figured by the time I got home it would probably be 35-0. I was wrong. Down by 21 points the Bills did it again with another great comeback. Down by 18 to Oakland and then by more to the Evil Empire only to end up winning??? Wow. Let us hope they can keep it up. They are so much more fun to watch now than they were when Mr. Mind was coach. I always said that Chan Gailey was a good coach and now I have to say that Ryan Fitzpatrick is more than a serviceable quarterback. He can only get better the more he plays and we do not have to dream about drafting Andrew Luck anymore.
3) Is there a worse coach than Norv Turner?? To take the talent the Chargers have and turn it into mediocrity takes a special person and Norv is that special person. Mr. Mind could do better with the Chargers than Norv. Why the Chargers owner keeps this guy around is beyond me.
4) Here in Rochester we are supposed to get a taste of November this Saturday. The temperature won't get out of the 40s that day. It just so happens to be the day of the calm bake at the Livingston Country Club. Figures.
5) My third Monday night passed without bowling this year. It feels so good not to have that weekly snippet of death driving me nuts. I do not know if the team is even bowling this year as no one bothered to call me. The place is still erect(how I do not know) as I have driven by it a few times this summer. It is just as well that I am not bowling with my shoulder probably being arthritic or well on its way to that stage. Maybe soon I will drive over the canal with my equipment, stop and let 'er fly and that will be the most fun I will have had with my equipment in years.
6) Rush Limbaugh is a Bombastic Blowhard. Oops, I have said that in my previous two blogs so I do not want to get repetitive.
7) I watched the new Jeff Dunham special on the Comedy Channel this past Sunday. Too much Achmed and not enough Walter and Peanut. Still he is a very funny guy. He is coming to the area in January and maybe I will get the chance to go see him live. It is always more fun to attend a show live and not suffer through those stupid 'bleeps'. Hey, I play golf so I know all of the words and then some.
Well, that is enough boring garbage for tonight. I may as well sign off and watch the telly. This is your King wishing you a pleasant evening.

More Mumblings from your Monarch!

1) It may be early but Your King is liking Mitt Romney more and more if he gets nominated by the GOP. The only way I would not vote for him would be if the Dems dumped Obama and nominated Hilary. I really do like her as she is a smart gal but, alas, that will not happen. Something has to be done and soon. Today's stock market plunge is another sign that we are heading into the toilet again.
2) Listened to the 'Gods gift to radio' again today. Why I listen to Rush I do not know. Today this bombastic blowhard came out against school lunch programs. Looking at his belly it is obvious he ate well as a kid but why scrap programs that help feed underprivileged children? Oh that is right, unless you are rich and well off he could give a hoot about you. God I hate that man but he does make me laugh when he spouts his ultra conservative garbage as I take his nonsense as comic relief. Now, do not get me wrong, I am for putting a leash on government spending but not at the cost of ending programs that give needy children good, nutritious school lunches that their parents are unable to afford. This guy is a peach. If his heart doctors ever gave this egotistical prick an EKG it would probably come out as a straight line as he has no heart.
3) The Tea Party Republicans in Congress voted against the new budget. It seems the new budget included an extra $24 billion dollars for FEMA for disaster relief which they did not like. It looks like they want FEMA to return to the Pre-Katrina level that left FEMA as a laughing stock as Brownie did not do a helluva job. With tropical storms Irene and Lee leaving the Eastern U.S. a mess I guess these representitives do not come from any of the districts that were left in ruins by the flooding from these storms. They too have no heart. FEMA needs this money to do a proper job. Funding for FEMA should not be a political football.
4) Man, long ago I swore off doing political rants on my blog but I just cannot help it lately. The economy blows. Unemployment sucks. Obama's sucking eggs. But, at least, Bin Laden is dead! Good riddance.
5) I have decided to retire again from bowling. First of all I cannot stand it but most of all my shoulder is getting too arthritic. I need it for another 30+ years so for the good of my shoulder I must give it up. It throbbed for days after a night of heaving the ball at Bedrock and by the time it felt good again it was time to bowl again. It does ache a bit after golf but nothing like after a night of bowling. Besides, it likes to make lots of funny scrunching noises now. Oh well, that is getting old for you.
6) Even though Fall is my favorite season I am not looking forward to the future rake jobs that will need to be done in my back yard when my royal forest starts puking leaves. The trees seem to be extra leafy this year thanks to the extra wet spring we had. The record for leaf piles in my back yard, for a single raking, was set last year during the third rake job. The number of piles that had to be hauled out to the road was nine, NINE!! These were not small piles either as they filled the 8x12 foot tarp that I used to drag the buggers out to the curb. I can feel the pain now.
Well, while I did not really want to write anything tonight I need to force myself to get back on the horse. I have been very lazy doing this nonsense lately and I do want to make my voice heard. You may not agree with your King, and that is your right, but it is my right to spout my opinions. This is not Iran. We may be governed by idiots but, at least, we are not ruled by kooks. This is your King wishing you a pleasant evening.

Mumblings From Your King

1) Well, after golfing better and better lately your King had, what you could say was, a Dow Jones correction event this past weekend. On Saturday it looked like I had never held a club before in my life and I dropped three points off my score. It went from 22 down to 19. That hurt after working so hard to better my score. Sunday was better but I did not score well except for a nice birdie on 14. Had some opportunities but wasted too many shots but still almost equaled my point requirement. A few more scoring holes and I would have won but alas. Oh well there is always this weekend.
2) I had the Royal Mutt this past weekend for visitation. God, how I miss that dog!! It was like she had never left. She 'talked' to me exactly the way she used to and she still knows her boundaries in the yard thanks to the invisible fence I had. She was even nice enough to take a nap during the last hour of the Bills game. Now that is a great dog!!!
3) Speaking of the Bills they are now 2-0 with a freight train called the New England Patriots looming for them this weekend. The comeback against Oakland was special and if they keep playing like they did in the second half of that game who knows? Still I think a .500 season would be a great season for them. Fitzpatrick makes the offense fun to watch. He may not have the pedigree but he seems to be a good QB.
4) I have been listening to Rush Limbaugh lately on the radio as time seems to fly faster during the work day listening to talk radio instead of music. Now, let me ask you is there a more egotistical bag of wind than this guy? He claims he is 'God's gift to radio' and he definitely has delusions of grandeur!! This guy twists and turns everything President Obama says about anything. He is so full of hate about the man it is incredible. His show is three hours of I hate Obama rhetoric.  While I have been disappointed in President Obama's work during his term, and with Congress I have an even greater disappointment with, I will probably vote for him again. The only GOP candidate I could even think about voting for would be Mitt Romney if he is nominated. And I probably would go in that direction if it was a Obama-Romney battle. But I digress so it is back to that bag of hot air, Rush. The man is so far to the right he even dislikes moderates. Now I am a moderate and take offense to a lot of what this bombastic blowhard says. If it was up to him air would be unbreathable, water undrinkable, oil wells popping up everywhere, the rich becoming richer and the poor, poorer and so on. His stance on global warming is unbelievable! The big thing about global warming is the melting of the Greenland icecap. Runoff from the icecap is fresh water and it flows into the Labrador current. Now fresh water is less dense than salt water so if enough fresh water infiltrates the Labrador current it could cut off the Gulf Stream leading to another possible ice age. It is possible in our time my friends!
Now there is one thing I do agree with this Fountain of Misinformation and that is there needs to be a full investigation of the one half billion dollars that was 'loaned' to that solar energy company, Sylindra I think, as they got that large amount of cash and two years later they file bankruptcy and laid off their entire workforce. Where did all of that money go??? Rush demands an investigation and so does your King.
Well I think your King has successfully irritated enough of my right wing friends for the night so I had better end this written farce now. Have a pleasant evening!!
