Exciting news from earlier this week. Stephanie is now officially a Stewart. We recently got our official marriage license back so we went and got her name changed. She is now Stephanie Denise Burdette Stewart. And we think that's pretty darn cool.

Counting the ways
You know how earlier I promised to never be a Democrat? Well, now I am giving you permission to shoot me if I ever do.
"What are they up to now?" you may ask. Well, I'm glad you did.
They are trying to censure a private citizen for saying something that they don't like. What's worse, they even took what he said out of context. It wasn't actually bad at all.
Many of you are probably going to have at least some sympathy for the man, or at least until I tell you his name: Rush Limbaugh.
Now, whether or not you agree with or even like the man, you have got to admit that it is very frightening to know that your own Congress, the people (some of) YOU elected to represent you, would be ok with censuring you, a private citizen with free speech rights, for saying something that they don't like. And they accuse Bush of ignoring the Constitution? Anyone else reminded of 1984 and Big Brother? "Newspeak?"
You can read the story here: Ken Salazar says he'd censure Limbaugh
So if they're doing this to a man who supposedly said this about only some of the soldiers, why no action being taken against all the radio hosts and other private citizens, who must number in the multiple thousands, who go so far as calling all of them things like "murderers?"
It's also great knowing that they'd rather waste their time on this than actually get anything important done. But they haven't shown that they like to actually accomplish things. Just look at what Pelosi promised for their first 100 days, and the none of it they accomplished. And remember what the Dems said that they won the Congress for back in '06? To get the troops out of Iraq. How's that goin?
Maybe this is why Congress has a lower approval rating than Bush.
Seriously, someone needs to be censured. And it's not a private citizen.

Game over
It is now official: I have the greatest wife in the history of everything.
Today she went out to get a haircut (which is beautiful, btw) and stopped at the grocery store, and to get us some lunch. When she got home, I saw that she had bought me a six pack of Samuel Adams Octoberfest (!!!) AND got food from City BBQ (!!!!!)
Like I said, game over.

VOTE FOR THIS MAN!!!
He's the guy who brought you such quotable gems as, "I'm a conservative, but I'm not mad at everyone over it," and on how he got so much of the black vote in AK as a Republican, "Simple. I asked them for it." He's the bass player in the band Capitol Offense. And now he's asking you a simple question. It's the title of this first video:
"Want to see the IRS disappear?"
No, he's not a magician. It's former Gov. and current, and possibly the darn nicest, Republican Presidential candidate, Mike Huckabee.
Interested?
Just watch...
Sounds pretty good, wouldn't you say? Just keep watching. It gets better.
And now some words from the guys who wrote the book on this stuff:
So go check out the Fair Tax link on the left there. Go ahead. You know you want to.
