This comment section is for the readers of Ft. Hard Knox, a place for political conservatives to share information about online activism. We are not "fair and balanced," and we aren't refereeing a "free speech zone." Intelligent, funny, and on-topic comments are welcome. Trolls, spam, and liberal propaganda are not. We may occassionally approve a comment with an obvious lefty-slant so that we can amuse ourselves by making fun of it, but most will be deleted. (Why? Because we're busy, we have lives, and when we want to talk to you we'll go visit you on Digg or the Daily KOS.)
This is a private blog, and we reserve the right to make up our own rules as we go along. The few comments which manage to squeak by our censors reflect the opinion of the commentator, and not necessarily the staff of Ft. Hard Knox.
Hint: One sure-fire way to get your comment sent directly to the "spam" folder is to call us "racists" for disagreeing with a policy of the current POTUS or speaking out against terrorism.

About two months ago several automobile company executives, who are working their tails off to save their companies from bankruptcy, flew to Washington to beg for a $15 billion bailout. They were roundly criticized for flying high in company jets and sent home.
A month ago those same executives drove for two days to beg for money once again and were rewarded for their humbleness with twice what they had originally requested. Much wasted time but twice the reward.
This week the President has taken a private Boeing 747 to Elkhart, Indiana to beg for $800 billion dollars. The residents of Elkhart build RV’s and the American public aren’t purchasing them. They cost a fortune to purchase, maintain and operate and people don’t have that expendable cash.
The business executives who used time efficient transportation to fight for their companies were criticized for being lavish and having a huge carbon footprint. Now the President is seeking people to support the RV business of high carbon footprint and excess luxury.
Maybe the President should drive an RV instead of flying in his 747, he might get $1.6 trillion.
