I’m selling off a nice item here:
It’s the real deal, according to my military buff friends.
as if our next Commander In Chief will be a giant, big eared turd, much to the detriment of our little republic, and if this is true, than as Dick says, Armageddon is at hand. Hillary would have been a disaster of biblical proportions, as everything she represents is evil, but Obama is the fucking devil incarnate.
Ah, well. We live in interesting times. When all dissent is stifled, and we’ve been marched off to the new socialist indoctrination camps, this blog will continue in some form or another, even if it’s just mimeographed pages handed out to a few close friends.
I still have my mimeograph machine, you see, and it’s how I published before I started this.
Obama, as unpopular as he is, can be buoyed up by a partisan media and get elected through massive voter fraud and Daley political machine manouverings, but there are some of us that just can’t be shut up.
A week and change after my return, let me just say that I am thoroughly pissed off that I cannot buy a Toyota Hilux diesel here in the states. I drove several of them there, and I’m damned if it’s not the nicest truck of it’s size I ever drove.
Now, I also rode around in a Series 2 109 diesel, (Land Rover) and as far as rideability/driveability goes, it has the toyota beaten hands down, of course. You can stand in the back of a Rover doing 50 mph down typical African roads, and that’s something that would kill you- or throw you out of the back- of a toyota. Problem is, the Rover’s supply chain is horribly long, even more so for Africa than here.
There were also Hummers there, mostly h2s. They made me giggle. They’d probably be OK if you could take the tops off them.
Here’s the Hilux we drove
Our guides had just set fire to a field to drive out buffs had there been any there.
And here’s the Rover. While I could see myself driving the Hilux every day, there’s no doubt I’d like the Rover more.
