Dagney's Rant

God's Sense Of Humor

Dagney Taggert — 2010-02-02T13:53:00Z

The timing of the recent "leaked" e-mails regarding data skewing of climate change data, and the Copenhagen climate summit is proof of God's sense of humor, don't you think?

"Phil Jones, the beleaguered British climate scientist at the centre of the leaked emails controversy, is facing fresh claims that he sought to hide problems in key temperature data on which some of his work was based.

A Guardian investigation of thousands of emails and documents apparently hacked from the University of East Anglia's ...

It's Been A Very Good Week For America...UPDATED

Dagney Taggert — 2010-01-22T22:42:00Z

It has been an awesome week for patriots, for America. First we had the Massachusetts Miracle to rally us, then Pelosi get's a comeuppance moment and realizes Obamecare is a "no go". So let's add frosting to this wonderful patriot cake this week. SCOTUS gave us a First Amendment triumph:

"On Thursday, the Supreme Court upheld the First Amendment and appropriately struck down government prohibitions on many sorts of privately-funded political advertising. In ...

Can You Say Delusional?

Dagney Taggert — 2010-01-22T11:50:00Z

While BO is trying to veer American's anger away from Democrats and on to banks, his buddy and fellow progressive Howard Dean is living in LA LA Land! I could not believe how he has managed to misread the message of Massachusetts!

WARNING: Saul Alinski Tactics UPDATED

Dagney Taggert — 2010-01-14T21:48:00Z

Primary rule in Saul Alinski's "Rules for Radicals" is to "divide & conquer". This would be the reason for this video, but the real question is who is behind it? Got any ideas?

Outsourcing Our IRS Returns to India???????????

Dagney Taggert — 2010-01-10T22:45:00Z

Hubby and I just heard Julie Banderas reporting on Fox News that the government is outsourcing our IRS returns. WHAT? First thing that hit us, with identity theft rampant, the government is putting our sensitive tax information into foreign hands???????? The 2nd thing that hit us was with the + 10% unemployment in the United States, what the dickens is our government doing sending jobs overseas?

Neither Drudge nor Fox News yielded further information on this issue, so stay tuned.

BTW, I'm sorry I've been so remiss ...

Ditto This!

GLENN BECK: I got a letter from a woman in Arizona . She writes an open letter to our nation's leadership: "I am a home grown American citizen, 53, registered Democrat all my life. Before the last
presidential election I registered as a Republican because I no longer felt the Democratic Party represents my views or works to pursue issues important to me. Now I no longer feel the Republican
Party represents my views or works to pursue issues important to me. The fact is I no longer feel any political party or representative in Washington represents my ...

Ft Hood; From Ground Zero

Dagney Taggert — 2009-11-13T02:19:00Z

An e-mail from Ft. Hood sent to a friend here in Texas;

"Subject: What happened

Since I don't know when I'll sleep (it's 4 am now) I'll write what

happened (the abbreviated version.....the long one is already part of the

investigation with more to come). I'll not write about any part of the

investigation that I've learned about since (as a witness I know more than I

should since inevitably my JAG brothers and sisters are deeply involved in ...

Now What?

Dagney Taggert — 2009-10-05T21:30:00Z

There is no such thing as an ex-Marine, and in this case the Marine is a judge!

"WND has reported on dozens of legal challenges to Obama's status as a "natural born citizen." The Constitution, Article 2, Section 1, states, "No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President."

Some of the lawsuits question whether he was actually born in Hawaii, as he insists. If he was born out of the country, Obama's American mother, the ...

Too Funny!

Dagney Taggert — 2009-09-19T23:51:00Z
I was speeding to a hastily assembled (we just learned about it last night via e-mail) Pelosi fund raising event today, when I was pulled over by a motorcycle policeman. I parked just behind another motorcycle policeman who had just issued a ticket. The policeman took my information, and went to check it out. While he was doing that, the policeman in front of me asked me to roll down my right window. He said, "I like your bumper stickers. Where did you get the yellow one?" The yellow one is the one that says, "If guns kill people, do ...

Prepare yourself to be FIRED UP, Americans!

Dagney Taggert — 2009-09-15T16:51:00Z
This is one of the most inspiring videos I've seen in a very long time! This was filmed on 9/12/2009, and it is even further proof of my belief that our nation is going to have the largest voter turn-out in 2010, in a mid-term election, than we have ever had in our history!

Garage Sellers Beware!

Dagney Taggert — 2009-09-01T13:32:00Z
If you hold, or enjoy shopping at yard/garage sales, you need to be aware that the Feds are watching you!

"The crackdown affects sellers ranging from major thrift-store
operators such as Goodwill and the Salvation Army to everyday Americans
cleaning out their attics for yard sales, church bazaars or -
increasingly - digital hawking on eBay, Craigslist and other Web sites.
Secondhand
sellers now must keep abreast of recalls for thousands of products,
some of them stretching back more than a decade, to stay within the
bounds of the law.
Staffers for the federal agency are fanning
out across the country ...

I Couldn't Have Said It Better!

Dagney Taggert — 2009-08-19T20:36:00Z
This woman echoes my sentiments, and many of my friends as well. Her voice needs to be heard!

"A woman from Arizona writes an open letter to our nation's leadership
very
soundly expressing the views/concerns that many if not most
Americans are
thinking.

If you go to a Town Hall meeting you might consider bullet
pointing her
talking points and use them as an outline to present your case
to the
Congress person hosting the meeting.     She writes...

The "Silent Majority" is Silent NO MORE!

Dagney Taggert — 2009-07-24T21:55:00Z
With TEA (Taxed Enough Already) Parties popping up all over America, with TEA Party members showing up to boo at legislators, there is ample evidence that America's "silent majority" is no long willing to be silent anymore. Wondering why? I think the following sums it up nicely:

"545 PEOPLE
By Charlie Reese
Politicians are the only people in the world who create problems and then campaign against them.

Have you ever wondered, if both the Democrats and the Republicans are against deficits, WHY do we have deficits?

Have you ever wondered, if all the politicians are against inflation and high taxes, WHY do we ...

Obama's 10 Commandments

Dagney Taggert — 2009-07-21T18:33:00Z
I just could not resist! Thank you, Newsmax!

After observing Obama on the campaign trail and during his
first six months in office, we have concluded that our President lives
and governs according to his own set of "Ten Commandments."
They're certainly NOT the Ten Commandments you learned in Sunday
School. In fact, many are the direct opposite! To prove that our

Finally An Honest Liberal!

Dagney Taggert — 2009-07-17T21:16:00Z
I cannot believe I finally found an honest liberal, and he's giving our side a reality check!"If you had any sense, you would start using our tactics against us. After all, you have a few lawyers on your side. Sue us. File frivolous ethics complaints against all our elected officials until, like Sarah, they go broke from defending themselves. (David Paterson would be a good place to start.) Challenge the constitutionality of BO2’s legion of fill-in-the-blank czars — none of whom have to be confirmed, or even pass a security check. (Come to think ...

Random Thoughts.

Dagney Taggert — 2009-06-22T00:01:00Z
The political situation is so upsetting, so out of control, so .....Oh gosh, what else can I say? If it forces me to limit my talk radio listening, it must be bad. Let's get real, folks. What can our Republican senators and congressmen really do? Nothing other than make a statement that "we don't agree". The only thing left to us is prayer. Ask our Holy Savior to intercede, He's our only hope. On the other hand....

...Strangely, I decided to blog on a totally different subject tonight. [Guess I have to distract myself from the damage the last 5 monthes ...

The Assault On Christians

Dagney Taggert — 2009-05-31T11:28:00Z
With the new administration we see numerous onslaughts against Christianity and we're now seeing it in the military. First there was this;

"The monogram "IHS" – a symbol for Jesus –
that appeared behind the podium where Obama spoke at Georgetown was
covered up with a piece of black-painted plywood. This led to
speculation that the White House had asked that all religious imagery
in the hall be covered or removed, as our reader notes. But Georgetown University and the White House have said this was not ...

White Roof, Anyone?

Dagney Taggert — 2009-05-27T12:35:00Z
I expected lunacy from the new administration, but it's come sooner than expected.

"He said lightening roofs and roads in urban environments would offset the
global warming effects of all the cars in the world for 11 years.

"If you look at all the buildings and if you make the roofs white and if
you make the pavement more of a concrete type of colour rather than a black
type of colour and if you do that uniformally, that would be the equivalent
of... reducing the carbon emissions due to all ...

An Excuse...2nd Amendment is in trouble!

Dagney Taggert — 2009-05-09T21:54:00Z
The TEA (Taxed Enough Already) Parties all around our country on Tax Day apparently has BO's administration a bit upset...but then we know they never let a "crisis" go to waste. With this in mind, you can see how this reaction to the TEA Parties is disturbing to Constitutionalists like me.

"During an appearance yesterday (4/19) on CBS-TV’s Face The Nation, Axelrod was asked for his thoughts on the “spreading and very public disaffection” with President Obama’s fiscal
policies. “I think anytime you have severe economic conditions there is
always an element of disaffection that can mutate into something that’s
unhealthy,” ...

TEA Parties & Ekklesia

Dagney Taggert — 2009-04-25T10:51:00Z
I was doing some research to learn more about Ekklesia and came across this link. It made me think of our recent TEA (Taxed Enough Already) Parties across the nation. I found it fascinating that as people of God we've been doing "tea parties" for centuries:

"When the Greek city states found their governments had become too corrupt and oppressive, they would call for an ekklesia,
an assembly outside the civil authority of the city. If enough people
came out and refused to accept the existing centralized civil
authority, that government would collapse. Non participation has been a
successful and peaceful means to ...
