Sorry pope but your wrong

The saying that the UN should have authority in sovereign nation affairs.

There is a reason America was successful as a PROTESTANT  nation.  One colony aut or 13 was Catholic. And that because of the king of England at the time.

The UN is a failiure and very burdensome on the American Taxpayer.

What, McCain too old to be President!

April 16, 2008 by shepherd000

Jack Murtha Pennsylvania Representative Says McCain is too old to be president.

Murtha you are a shame to your age group.

Do you know why their were age limitations on congressman and The president Representative. From the many things you have said over the years I believe You hate this country. For if tou loved it you would learn more about it.  Maybe you think you are smarter than our fonders. Maybe as a Democrat you get more foolish with age.  What a bum!

And what fools the democrats have offered as presidential contenders. Both want change.  Our past created the greatest country on the face of the planet. But you want change.  This can ony happen with an un educated Populus.  Maybe communism is better, Give me a break.

Permits and the Local Government

April 13, 2008 by shepherd000

Why or who thinks its okay to let the government decide what you can do with your property. They essentially have stripped away private property rights from the citizens. This is clearly Unconstitutional as we know. Its because we stand by and let it happen. They pick on your neighbor and you say nothing.  Well freedom surely isnt free it takes energy to keep it.   What gives them the right to issue permits to private citizens in the first place.  We have become what we were fighting during the coldwar, not just a nation but an ideology of Socialsm or its more extreme cousin Communism.  But this is where we are now and just watch the economy Dive.  Socialism and government control of property winds up despairing the populus while benefitting  only those who seek to rule over you.

Liberals seem to be possesed

April 11, 2008 by shepherd000

Liberals seem to be a Punishment for us all.  Without them there could be paradise.   Maybe that was the real curse on Mankind.

They seem to be void of individual thought. They are always quoting others ideas, the ones that fit there  distorted view of things.

Global Warning Myths

April 10, 2008 by shepherd000

Global Warming alarmists. Its funny how they that claim destruction are Illiteterate themselves in science.

They all quote some other so-called specialist. Yet none are scientific, and they Ignore scientific facts.

This is not My case as I am a scientist.

The Idea that CO2 gases trap heat in the upper atmosphere is lame point. Heat is trapped any way and has since the beginning.  Space is a vacuum Heat dosent travel through a vacuum. What would be more likely would be that the CO2 would slightly defract Light rays back into space.  Just remember heat is mechanical Energy Light is electromagnetic energy– High school Physics.  (Well maybe not from a public high school.)

One Response to “Global Warning Myths”

  1. Shepherd Says:
    April 5th, 2008 at 6:23 pm   editIf you value anything above freedom, You will lose it.
    Id rather be free and a few degrees warmer.
    How are so many people are so easily duped. Believe it or not the earth was globally warmer in our past. What– fossil fuels from the arctic… how could that be!
    Question Does the Sun Get larger with time? The sun has the greatest impact on weather here on earth. And we cannot control that. Unless You think Al Gore is god. Afterall to a leftist government is god. Remenber Real Science isnt politcal. But if you would rather believe Al Gore than real science so be it. Dictators and rulers emerge
    where there is ignorrance in the populus

Corrupt County Government

Excerpt from local businessman

City State County bosses where does it end.  read this from email:

Complaints on Emmet County Weigh “MASTER”? 

Constant Harrassment

Current complaints

 

On the Morning of Sunday, March 23rd, 2008 (Easter Sunday), we had a truck out to get one account which was Nubs Nobb Ski Resort.  When leaving this establishment, Rob, (Our Driver) lifted his pusher axle to turn off of “Nubs Nobb” road on to Pleasantview Road. Timothy Burke AKA Emmet County Weigh Master was waiting for him to pull out & Stopped him to weigh the truck. Tim asked Rob to Pull into a Private parking lot that is known as Teddy Griffen’s Road house so he could weigh the truck. Tim weighed the truck & told Rob to follow him to the Emmet County Road commission Garage so he could use different scales on a more level surface.  He then weighed the truck & told Rob it was to heavy to drive out then, he was going to impound the truck. Rob brought the keys & paper work. There was nothing on the ticket or any paper work saying it was impounded, there also was not a sticker placed on truck.  Tim told Rob & Ben (an owner, picking up rob) that when we had to pay the ticket or bond it out if we were going to challenge the ticket in order to remove the truck. He also told them when they picked up the truck, they have to take it out on N. Conway  & use Highways to go directly to the transfer station.

 

  • Tim did not allow Rob to leave the lift axle down, it was down on Nubbs Nobb Road & was lifted to urn only. He was ticketed for being on Nubbs Nobb Road, not Pleasantview road
  • At 6:00 a.m. easter morning what else was he looking for off of a secluded road?
  • Tim told Bryan, (Our attorney) that he new that the resort was having an end of the year party & that the trash would need to be emptied that morning, and he saw Rob turn onto Pleasantview from M-119 and new that was probably where he would be heading so he waited for him to come out in the Hidden Hamlet home Association He was not at all in sight.
  • Tim did not allow rob to put the axle down when being weighed,  Tim told Bryan that it did not matter because it was still over weight. How would he know? He did not try? If it was it would be less over weight!
  • When he told Rob to follow him he led him down a weight restricted road of about 5 miles to the road commission building, on a weight restricted road, putting us at more risk with other enforcement, (another county weigh guy or the DOT) which could have caused us further problems, Brian confronted Tim on doing that, Tim said he thought it was the quickest way.??  So we avoid driving on these roads & he takes us down one. I thought the enforcement was to prevent road damage. Nubs Nobb road is all of ½ mile, we only accessed it because it is the only way into it. We do not intentionally run on restricted roads if there is a better way in.
  • Tim told rob on the day he impounded the truck that he had to write enough tickets so the county can get grants from the state! Why would he say that?
  • Tim told Rob & Ben that when they leave to take the main roads & not go down the way he brought Rob in. Now as of Tuesday, April 8th, 2008 Tim has changed tune as we have to unload enough to make the truck legal.
  • The ticket is around $3,000. To bond it out it is double the ticket. What? They will not take payments on the ticket because they want the truck there until ticket is paid, but they don’t want the truck there long because it stinks.
  • Everything we or Bryan try to work out has been unsuccessful, we filed an extension for ticket to get the payment collected.
  • Why all of this? Usually if we or anyone gets a ticket, they issue the ticket & go on about your business. Why would they hold a truck?
  • Tim told Bryan in a discussion that he know what the particular truck looks like and will stop it & weigh it & write a full ticket each time. He will also be looking for it at all times. “This is not even right.”
  • Nubb’s Nobb road is NOT marked as a restricted road as most others are. When you go into Nub’s Nobb there is a big sign the says Nubs Nubb Road, also the road is called Nubbs Nobb road. There is no way really to tell if it is a county road or a private road, it is not marked as seasonal, restricted, but it has Nubb’s Nobb the name of the resort. The drive has a couple roads coming out of the housing association but other wise it goes right in to the resort.
  • Owner of resort said this is the first time anything like that has happened & they been around for 50 years

Our complaint is not just because we got a ticket, we would normally settle it & get on with our work. We feel that Timothy Burke has been harassing us and entrapping us since March of 2005, our first year.  The county has us turn in a chart of days showing where we are operating & how many trucks in those areas. Emmet County is huge & has many, many miles of county roads. We see him every season where we run our routes. I am thinking it is not coincidental anymore.  There is plenty of other trucking outfits & roads they could patrol.  Why just us?

 

The County bans burning of trash, has ordinances to not have trash in yards, So we & others offer the service to haul it for them.  The county requires us as haulers to only dump at the county owned facility. The county sets dumping rates, we have our rates be approved by them. And then they hunt you down to give you a ticket.

 

We are getting very discouraged & considering moving our operations out of state.

 

Waste removal is a necessary service, not seasonal type of business.  We there is restaurants, Stores, gas stations, Farms, other businesses, & many, Many residences.

We do all that we can to not be overweight, these types of trucks are heavy to start, we usually go into restricted roads empty, on Sunday the county transfer is closed, so we can not empty. We only haul partial loads, use pick up’s, trailers, and for residential we have a different style to use which scales. The big dumpsters however we need our larger trucks. We are planning on different types of trucks in the future as we grow. We are a small company & can not afford to go buy all new equipment, but as we do we have been trying to get lightest as we can. They do not make a packer truck “legal weight” not for Michigan. Tim says there is but you need to be a millionaire to get one!

We would like to see some easement of restrictions to allow for some services to be done with out being harassed. Not only for us but for company’s who haul heating fuel for homes, septic haulers so if people need it they can get it!, and other important services.

Why is they county exempt from the restrictions they make? They say we can not drive on them but they do with their dump trucks, heavy equipment. This is how the roads get damaged, with their heavy loads & Plows, We see chunks of road on shoulder all of the time.

 

IMO They only reason they held our truck is because they wanted every cent they could get. It is like theft, the legal way.(legal in their mind, not mine)

  • Stop using commercial products.  Leaves instead of toilet paper.
  • Stop talking, as they want to control everyone elses speech.
  • Start thinking, Its the cheapest activity around
