EVERYONE IS DOUBTLESS AWARE of the attack on the National Holocaust Museum on 14th Street NW in Washington D.C.; in which a Museum security officer was shot dead by a "white supremacist" nutbar wielding what we are given to understand was a .22 rimfire rifle. The atttacker was immediately shot and rendered unthreatening by two other security men.
WE AT THE ALEXANDRIA DAILY POOP were aware the second we learned of this that the anti-gun movement would jump right on this, dipping their lace hankies in the dead officer's blood and waving it to advance their fraudulent and corrupt agenda. But we were surprised at the reaction of the Washington Post, who have not said anything about "gun control" in their reporting or editorializing, perhaps to avoid being seen as vultures (Although cartoonist Tom Toles did do a cartoon depicting a Rush Limbaugh looking character as a "cooking show" host offering a recipe for murder that only needed two ingredients: "hate" and a firearm, both of which were available to the bigot depicted as watching the show). Rather, the Post has adopted the tactic of publishing letters to the Editor and "comments", all of which strangely (or not) have the same theme: "We will never be rid of bigots but we can get rid of guns".
BALDERDASH.
This was an attack by a suicidal nutbar. And it is fortunate that he used a rifle. None have considered that a very effective bomb can be constructed of explosives that can be made out of maaterials that are very commonly available and utterly impossible to control. The formula for black powder for instance is very well known. Also well known is that the ingredients for black powder are found in nature. They are saltpeter, charcoal and sulfur. And black powder can make a nasty bomb indeed; and the killer needen't detonate himself, improvised 3-second fuses activated by friction aare also easily made. Imagine if the killer VonBrunn had gotten into the lobby and instead of a rifle pulled out an armed bomb and tossed it over the metal detectors into the crowd? The dead and injured would have been in the dozens. Several strapped to his person would have made him a walking Claymore mine. So it is fortunate he had only a rifle.
It is equally fortunate that there was an armed citizen - a "trained security officer" yes but a citizen nonetheless - to stop VonBrunn before he could shoot another person.
It is doubtful that VonBrunn knew that the Holocaust Museum security people were armed. Killers who use firearms rely on "sensible gun control" to ensure a soft target full of unarmed victims and plenty of time to kill away until the police arrive. They are fully aware of the maxim "when seconds count, the police are only minutes away". And they continue to kill until somebody shows up with a firearm to put an end to the killing. And eliminating firearms will not slow down the killing, in fact it may well speed the killing up. The ingredients for ten pounds of black powder are probalbly within a two-block radius of where you are reading this right now. Oh yes, and Black Powder's other name is....GUNPOWDER!

THIS PRESIDENT IS A DISASTER
WHEN HE RAN FOR PRESIDENT Barack Hussein Obama got the votes from the workers in the industrial sections of the Midwest by telling them their straits were all the fault of George Bush and the Republicans, and that electing them would have them back farting through silk. We found it hard to believe that the people of Indiana and Ohio, where we were raised, would fall for it. We were wrong, as a drowning man will grasp at straws.
NOW these poor saps are finding out who and what they voted for, and it isn't what they thought. No, far from everybody getting back to work, Obama's bungling of the GM/Chrysler bailout scheme had him telling them over the weekend that things were as a result going to be worse, that factories and dealerships were going to be closing and that suppliers would shutter their shops. But the good news was that they had been called upon to make a noble sacrifice for their country and children by going jobless. We know the people from which we sprang, and we know for a certainty that these folks are now aware that they are being - we try to avoid obscenity here but only one thing fits - they are being screwed in the ass by Obama.
WE have heard and read the words pf parvenue Obama apologists who say Obama's actions were necessary to avoid even more people being thrown out of work. That statement if made in an Ohio cornfield would fertilize it for the next thousand years. The fact is that if NOTHING had been done by the Federal Government, these two companies would have gone into Chapter 11 ANYWAY, and most likely with less pain than now. Obama's motive was to keep the Union bosses - NOT the workers but the leadership of the IAW - eating regular meals. To pretend he is helping the workers by hanging them out to dry is disingenuous to say the least. This takes an horrific amount of chutzpaugh. It is also illegal.
NOTHING IN THE CONSTITUTION AUTHORIZES ANY OF THIS. President Obama is violating the very law he swore to uphold. He should be impeached, tried, convicted and removed from office forthwith.
THIS President is a danger to our Nation not only on an economic venue (remember those kids he said the workers were sacrificing for? Well; ONE, how are they going to get fed if Dad is jobless? and TWO, HE HAS ALREADY PUT THEM HOPLESSLY IN DEBT FOR THE REST OF THEIR ADULT LIVES. ) Obama is also a threat to our very existence. He has this day stated that the United States should UNILATERALLY DISARM to "set the example" after which the rest of the world will follow. In the same speech he said that Iran had A RIGHT TO NUCLEAR WEAPONS!!! At a minimum he is all but offering to serve up Israel on a platter to her enemies, if not also this very Nation to ours.
WE ARE OBLIGED to extend our sympathies to the good people from which we at the Alexandria Daily Poop were raised. We do mot blame them for being fooled by this wolf in sheep's clothing. But we urge them to get angry, very angry indeed; at a so-called President who dines on $100-per-pound imported Kobe beef (when he is not going on a visit to a burger joint which involoves spending $75 grand on a motorcade) , having a special chef flown in from Chicago to make him a pizza, and taking the Missus on a trip that cost well over a quarter BILLION dollars for a dinner and theater date; while they scrounge barren food banks and scramble to keep the very roof over their heads; and then tells THEM to 'sacrifice" while he leads the high old life. Even Jimmy Carter had the decency to at least put on a show of shaaring in our privations. Obama is beginning to act as though he thinks himself our King. He would do well to remember what we did with the last one we had.
IMPEACH OBAMA NOW.
