I understand your fustration with Alexander; i feel the same way. I doubt any tennessee repbulican will challenge Alexander --- i doubt he can be beat; unless he does something abysmally stupid, like Albert Gore SR did in 1968. I'ts truly a shame that the people of tennessee have to put up with a republican senator that is far more like Arlen Specter than Bill Frist. By the way; here is a "real republican" who ran against Bob Corker in the Republican Primary last time. His name is Ed Bryant. Take the time to read this: terryfrank.net Ed Bryant Unmatched in the U.S. Senate Race I don't know if he can be convinced to run again; but he is a good guy. I also like the lady that just stepped down as the head of the Tennessee Repbulican Party, Robin Smith. Kind regards, LEROY

Got the same powder measure -- been using it 30 years or so. Have seen this a few times before. USMCJG's cleaning sugguestion is great, along with the baffle sugguestion. Make sure you lock down the lock nut on the metering screw firmly when you set the measure. Also, keep a close eye on the "head" of powder in the powder reservoir. Try to keep it in the middle third of the measure if you can. Hope this helps. Kind regards, LEROY

Move this man to the head of the class!!! This is a great truth. You are exactly right!! We need to pay close attention to who sits on the local school board and who the superintendent of schools is. Great insight!! Keep up the good work! Kind regards, LEROY

AMEN. WHAT A TRUTH!!! Kwwp up the good work! King regards, LEROY

Brandon makes a great point. Tennessee newspapers are braying about this and sitirring it up because they are socialist in their worldview and owned by large holding companies and families who are East Coast liberals, not Tennesseeans; all married to the socialist utopia anti-American dream crowd espoused by the Dems at this point in history. The newspapers make lots of noise about this because it's a propoganda issue to them. The newspapers partner with the minority fringe groups to take up these idiotic causes with disgusting regularity because it is a political jihad with the most of them. That allows the minority view to have a perceived "giant magaphone" and makes their view an imagined majority status. It's an old trick" "yell loud and often, you may be percieved as the majority." They also lead the childish along who dont know what their rights are; or worse still, dont care. The newspaper presumes to take the "high ground" on every issue and lead the childish along -- they have been doing this as long as newspapers have been around. Never expect the newspapers to do the right thing -- their worldview simply wont allow it to happen. The best way to get even with them is to quit trading with them, and starve them to death. I started doing my part a long time ago. I also believe that in the citidels of lunacy like Knoxville, Nashville, Memphis, and sometimes Chattanooga; the usual crowd: the socialists, the anti-Americans, the non-thinkers, hippies, peacenicks, gutter trash, ect. ect.-- are easily lead around by local demigogues (read that local polititians) -- mostly in city government; and that's exactly what's going on with the gun carry issue. It's all being done by folks to garner votes from their individual constitutiencies. The only way to counter this is by becoming active in your local political sphere. That's exactly what has happened on the state level and exactly why gun rights are being restored in TN. Let's keep up the good work and hold those who say and do these idiotic things accountable at the voting booth. There will be voting precincts where our beliefs will never be accepted; but we need to keep working on them. There are other precincts where we can and have made great strides. Political activism is the most important thing we who honor the Constitution and the Bill of Rights can be involved in right now' because of the great assault on them. Don't worry about the papers, start your own jihad for the truth, be politically active!! Keep up the good work!! Kind regards, LEROY

What a great Father's Day present!! Keep up the good work! Kind Regards, LEROY

Amen brother! We can learn a lot from them. Kind regards, LEROY

Kevin:____________ Lets stir this hornet's nest up again and give me and some others a Father's Day treat. Dont worry about us thinking of you as a "liberal/Socialist". Some of us think you are simply childish in your outlook and incorrect in your, legal, logical, and christian ethical conclusions -- not to mention being a little "snippy". So how about educating us old guys on the the latest attrocity in Pakistan. Here it is: Quote: Originally Posted by leroy Kevin:_____________ Here's a news flash you may want to get to work on.

If you were accused of child molestation, wouldnt you think it we be important to have a trial? I sure would. That being said, what gives you a self evident right to deny that to someone else? Aren't you a Christian? Last edited by KevinM; 06-13-2009 at 10:54 AM.. I am just an ignorant old man. How about explaining why these guys didnt get a trial or get "mirandized" and why they needed to be? If they didn't need to be; just feel free to say so. I wont rag you too bad. We need to get this settled before the link goes dead. Dont get me wrong; I'm glad they are gone -- its a great day for america and for me personally when these thugs are in the grave; but I need a constutional law and christian education on this incident. Please help me out. Kind regards, LEROY ps -- you might want to work on them manners a little bit -- dont be so snippy and loose with the scarcasm. Didn't your mom talk to you about that when you were a little boy? Tisk Tisk

Amen brother!! Keep up the good work! Kind regards, LEROY

I think the IDF has a "foreign volunteer" group; but I forget what it's called. Evidently several Americans helped during the last Lebanon Campaign. Kind regards, LEROY

How is the trigger as compared to a Glock? Is the trigger itself made of polymer and serrated like a Glock? Kind regards, LEROY

I think you are exactly right. I believe they (the hebrew children) will take out the Iranian nuke production facilities similarly to what they did with Iraq. My guess is that they will use some neat bunker busting nukes to do it -- lots of kaboom in a compact package --. Everybody, including us will squall, then lay back down; being profoundly thankful that it happened. Keep up the great thinking!! Kind regards, LEROY

Great one liner!! Keep up the good work!!! The only quibble i have is the numbering. Reagan won WW3 without firing a shot -- Soviet Union went down. The West (that's codewords for the USA and a few others) are fighting WW4 now against the islamofacist nuts in the muslum brotherhood movement. The great warriors in this battle are the Jews. My prediction is that they will take care of the Iranian Nuke problem by themselves. We and others will stand by, wring our hands, say bad things about the hebrew children, and (if we are religious) say a prayer under our collective breaths thinking the Almighty for these pesky, brave, tenacious troublemakers. The jews will then have pushed back armageddon a few years and saved humanity (such as it is) for a few more years. I say, God bless them ever one!! Keep up the good work!! LEROY ps-- you may find a similar post. my computer or the server must have ate the first one.

Amen!! Let him live if he aint causing trouble. Bet he's a young groundhog if he's running around and dancing. Kind regards, LEROY

Mister Same -- gotta news flash for ya -- if you are afraid of being shot; stay out of the places where shooting is a possibility -- like about anywhere in Memphis. I'd much rather take my chances with "Second Amendment Stretching gunslingers" who abide by the law, than take my chances with a bunch of gutter trash that dont abide by it. It never ceases to amaze me how some folks overlook that criminals, by definition, break the law -- thats why they call them "criminals". Law abiding citizens dont. Gun control laws were CONCIEVED by thugs and dirty polititians to disarm their enemies in the big cities like New York, Chicago, and Philadelphia -- those citadels of safety. Your premise is that law abiding citizens be disarmed and that thugs be allowed to go free -- seems ignorant to me. You might want to quit hanging around with that trash you may be hanging around with and partonize some country boy bars and act like you are somebody. Theyll probably be armed. but they wont shoot you if you behave. Consider this a learning moment -- father to son stuff -- you know. LEROY

Sorry to hear of this disgraceful conduct. The best way to take care of this trash is to do exactly what you've done. Tell everybody you know what happened and dont trade with them. They worship the god of money -- hit em where it hurts the most. Don't worry about this bunch --- find somewhere else to go to dinner -- the hell with them and the trash like them, i say (pardon my french) -- they will allways be out there -- especially in a citadel of lunacy like Memphis. We have the same problem in east tennessee; I live near another citadel of idiocy -- Knoxville. Keep up the good work! Kind regards, LEROY

Great answer. there's no question that reloading is cheaper. You can also taylor your loads to what you want to do -- heavy or light -- any type bullet, etc. If your time is limited; i would recommend a progressive press; but you need a real buddy to help you thru load selection, initial set up, and use. Most people blow themselves up with pistol ammo loaded with fast powders on progressive reloading machines. We have a dillon xl650 (we bought ours used with tons of dies and caliber conversion kits ) that we can easily load about 400 rounds thru in 1 1/2 to 2 hours (i tend to piddle and verify too much). Others can do much better. Hope this helps. LEROY

This is exactly right. Israel removed a threat and made us and them safer -- they were vilified for it by the UN and some in this country -- they didn't care, they simply did what they thought was right. We should take a lesson from them. For the last 50 years we have started out right (when we started); then a bunch of third basers, career polititians, and polititian wanna bees in high position in the military (like Colin Powell), and apologists take over. Just about the time our military has their collective boot on the neck of our enemies; the aforementioned idiots stops our military from finishing what should have been done in the first place. We are cursed with indecision because many in our government have no sense of right and wrong; they are just a bunch of trashy polititians. We in this country have no idea of what those in Israel put up with every day. We may someday, if we don't wake up; but that's another story. The only real ally we have in the middle east is Israel. LEROY

Does anyone have the voting details on this on on a senator by senator basis? LEROY

Great point. The character and worldview of those possessing nukes is much more important than anything else. You may want to take the time to read this post in the JPost this morning: The myth of imperial Zionists | Op-Ed Contributors | Jerusalem Post The jews generally dont start anything; they just finish it. Kind Regards, LEROY

Amen brother! You are exactly right! RE: Your Vietnam war analagy. Right on again. I believe that the bulk of the great disgust for the Republicans and Bush 43 is exactly what you are pointing out. We were way too reasonable about handling things. This campaign should have been over in a matter of months; not years. Frustrations about this mistake have been continually whipped along by the news media (again, like Vietnam) and the mongrel socialist hippie class in academia, the media, and the rabid partizan Demorats; along with their foolish sons and daughters. It is diagraceful; and in my mind, treasonable. The same third basing of tactics and general willingness to believe anything bad about the military is exactly the same as it was in Vietnam. Make no mistake; it was about politics then and it is now. These self-loathing third basers hate themselves and this country -- it's all about politics and them being the smartest guys in the room about everything, especially government -- they are dismissive about everything American; and want to remake this country in their own evil, morally bankrupt image; while involking platitudinous pronouncements about liberty and the rule of law. They conveniently forget what happened with the Marine Barracks Bombing in Lebanon by Hezbolla, the total destruction of the country of Lebanon, the almost daily murder of Israelis, the wiping out of a couple of generations of Iraq's and Iranians in the "real Iran-Iraq war in the 80's, the bombing of the USS Cole, Somalia, and several other places the US was attacked -- let alone the Twin Towers. They think it's all right to let American soldiers be killed; but not these murdering thugs who rape their mothers and sisters and kill their own brothers and sell them into slavery. The whole thing is sickening. That's why im so contemptious of them; they are, as the Russians were fond of saying; "enemies of the state." They have no character and seek to degrade those who do. RE: The unending war. It is my firm belief that if we had started killing these thugs sooner, instead of ignoring them and trying to buy their favor, there would not have been the killing that has went on to date. That is exactly what Israel does; they live with this problem ever day. Our inaction on this issue is what has moved this plague from the middle east to our own shores. Now, a Volunteer Army (God bless 'em) is having to fix about 30 years of problems -- I, personally don't see how they do the job they do for some of the trash that resides in this country. They are far more corageous and giving than I am. I do not believe that the whole lot of these tenth century monsters and the slaves they have made is worth one pin prick of american blood. Like you, I don't give a rat's patute about what happens to these tenth century thugs at Guantanamo. As and old buddy of mine is fond of saying about death row inmates: "lets fire up the electric bleachers." That's how i see it --- let the whining and indignation begin. LEROY

This is a great course of action. There is nothin in the cesspool around Beale Street in Memphis that cant be found somewhere else. Let the cesspool stink. Memphis is exactly the same place that New Orleans was before Katrina. Same inner city trash; same demigogue polititians and crooks -- same results. My advice would be not to go into Memphis without a gun; and not to go to Beale Street at all. Im sure there are still some good folks in Memphis and some good places to go. I would find out where they are and patronize their businesses. Let the trash congregate on Beale Street. LEROY

YOU MIGHT WANT TO LIGHTEN UP A LITTLE. AFTER ALL, IM JUST AN IGNORANT OLD MAN -- dont know much about constitutional law, problems with christianity, etc. ---- BE PATIENT AND EDUCATE ME. KIND REGARDS, LEROY

I think the main reason they are still there is that they are dangerous men. There could be a few goat herders in the crowd, but i doubt it. It seems they are pretty rowdy to me; all you need to do is a google search to find out how rowdy. It seems that the great Noboma has tried to hand over a few of the "goat herders" -- seems that no one wants to take them. I wonder why. Could it be that others may think that these guys are dangerous -- probably so. By the way, i wondered where you went. How about the rights of those "goat herders" in pakistan the other day? One thing about it; they weren't tortured. I wonder if they were "Mirandized" via leaflet. You might want to check back in on the ole Miranda thread and enlighten us. By the way, I seem to remember some soldiers being punished and a general being reprimanded over this pesky "mistreatment" thing. I believe (notice the language) you are drilling a dry hole trying to recycle this one; but I enjoy the attempt. Keep up the good work, LEROY

Great history lesson. Thanks for sharing: justme quote: "There has not been in invasion by Iran into what we call Palestine (by the way, the name "Palestine" is not the name of this region from antiquity -- it is Israel. The Romans (a great bunch, themselves) destroyed Israel in AD70 and renamed Israel "Palestine". They were mad at those pesky Jews for crimes against Rome, decimated them, and finished them as a nation. The name "Palestine" is used many times as a convenient "alternate state name" for those who dont like those pesky jews to legitimize the idea that somehow the jews stole the miserable spot of land they were ceded in 1948 from the pore ole Palestinians) since about 614 A.D and no such Persian invasion has been carried out into Palestine by Persia (Iran) in the modern 20th century. Iran has never preemptively attacked Israel, and indeed--Persian kings who have invaded ancient Palestine in ancient times have showed great mercy to those living in the cities that are located in what we call Israel today...Cyrus is hailed as a great liberator, as is Darius the Mede. ..... However, the Turks (Ottomans), Byzantines-- the Arabs, the Crusaders under the French, and Napoleon, Egypt, Jordan, Syria--all invaded Palestine...and Iraq, Egypt and Syria all invaded "Israel" three separate times between 1948-1973, and in the first two wars Jordan, and a number of other "moderate" Arab countries helped...but Iran was not among them during these invasions..." You may want to consider this piece of info in your Iran history, Picked it up from a quick search of Iran history-- did a quick Google search: I remember this very well. The Iran you are talking about in your above dissertation aint the present Iran. that is out there now: CA 1979: "...Khomeini served as leader of the revolution or as Supreme Leader of Iran from 1979 to his death on June 3, 1989 ( its a grea thing when these monsters go to meet Allah!! -- if there is one). This era was dominated by the consolidation of the revolution into a theocratic republic under Khomeini, and by the costly and bloody war with Iraq. The consolidation lasted until 1982-3),[107][108] as Iran coped with the damage to its economy, military, and apparatus of government, and protests and uprisings by secularists, leftists, and more traditional Muslims — formerly ally revolutionaries but now rivals — were effectively suppressed. In the summer of 1979 a new constitution giving Khomeini a powerful post as guardian jurist Supreme Leader[109] and a clerical Council of Guardians power over legislation and elections, was drawn up by an Assembly of Experts for Constitution. The new constitution was approved by referendum in December 1979. -- Wikapedia stuff Khomeini turned Iran from a prosperous, secular, progressive country into a religious totalitarian dictatorship in a matter of a few years. Thats the Iran you need to be worried about; not the "Persia" of bible times. Thats the government that Adidiawhachmacallit represents, as well as the Grand Whoever. Times change, so to governments. You might want to consider that Hezbolla is a proxy of Iran and they have been fighting both the Hebrews and the USA; they aint been doing too good with the fight -- but they are fighting.
