GRR-R-R-REAT News!
After 6 years of discussing and arguing, after 6 years of trying to convince him that the party which he stood for was corrupt, vile, unethical and lacking in the moral values which he held, I was able to convince my father, age 82, that he should become a republican. He'd been making a habit of voting republican for some time now (Reagan, Bush, etc.) and kept insisting it did not make any difference how he was registered. Of course, I tried explaining that whereas what he said was true in the general elections, it was in the primaries that the candidates were elected and that if he gave up his voice in the primaries his selections in the general elections could be limited to someone he might not have liked. For six years I failed.I even tried the old "father-son" bonding thing by telling him it'd be the best birthday present he could ever give me. No luck.
It was not until I actually took the initiative, got the paperwork from the Supervisor of Elections office and took it to him that he signed. All this from a guy who admitted to having voted in the Dummycrap pre-primaries in February for the candidate LEAST likely to EVER win nomination---Al Sharpton, simply because he can't stand The Poodle, John F**king Kerry. You gotta love it!
OBTW, my father became a citizen in the late 60s more because his job required it than anything else (the factory he worked in had defense contracts.) I asked him why he registered as a democrat and he said that as soon as he returned from his swearing in the union goons in his shop told him that is what he should do.
I feel content now, knowing the US will be a bit better place with one fewer registered dem.
OH, HAPPY DAY!!!

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:
It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
- Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
- Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
- Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
- Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

Oh, and here's some kind of visitor flag counter thingy. Hey, all the cool blogs have one, so I should too. The Visitors Online thingy up at the top doesn't count anything, but it looks neat. It had better, since I paid actual money for it.
