NRA Propaganda At Its Best
Straight from the “what the fuck” department I bring you the NRA’s (National Rifle Association) latest masterwork. Apparently they want to draw in new members with this little graphic novel. If you can get over your initial urge to vomit this is some of the funniest, if misguided, propaganda ever. Even though these people are bat-shit insane, the art is well done.
I am sure the NRA will get a couple of new members from stuff like this. Do they really want the kind of person that this work will appeal to as members? Seems to me like this would right up the alley of separationists and whack jobs. Not the kind of people you can count on for continued financial support.

Is Iran Running Out Of Oil?
It seems Iran, the worlds fourth largest exporter of oil and holder of 10% of the current world proven reserves, may run dry in ten to fifteen years.
What this means for America could be just about anything. We could see Iran destabilize into a refuge for terrorists and chaos. We could see Iran trying to develop nuclear weapons to make money much like North Korea. Or we could see a great humanitarian crisis brought on by the sudden and drastic decrease in oil revenue. None of which are good for anyone. This is what happens when you are a one crop farmer and the farm has a bad year.

Monday Confessional
Like many people in this crazy world I come from a divorced family. Which if you ask the right people means that my life is doomed to a series of hollow feelings and disappointments (the same people who think gay people marring will destroy the universe). I can’t speak for everyone else but I might be an exception to that rule as I have not suffered any doom just yet. In fact its been so long that I have adjusted to the multiple house shuffle for the holidays.
Christmas for my family is more of an Iron Man competition. For instance last night I was at my fathers house in Michigan, this morning I find out what “Santa” brought me with my mother in Ohio, then its off to my fathers again, often with a stop at my grandmas house (before my fathers mother died that meant two houses), don’t forget to squeeze in all the other holiday fun times and you can see that you have to be very strong to even think about surviving.

Happy Holidays From The Sietch
Happy Holidays and a happy new year from everyone here at The Sietch.

At present all Britain’s carbon dioxide emissions amount to 2% of the world’s global emissions. Aviation contributes 7.5% of all this country’s emissions – just 0.15% of the global total.
That’s a quotation from an op-ed piece by Douglas Alexander, the UK’s Minister for Transport, referring to the amount of carbon the UK’s aviation produces. Can’t be faulted really; it will grow, but then so will aviation worldwide…
for example, China is building 49 new airports and expanding another 71.
See, he knows his stuff. And he wants to walk the talk too…
That is why I recently called for the Chicago Convention, which regulates international aviation, to be reformed to meet these challenges.
And furthermore…
I believe a finer hour for Britain will be leading the international community in finding a global solution to a global
problem.
Great, Britain saves the world. Or does it?
