VILLAGE OF BARKER, N.Y. (WIVB) - A man survived being struck by lightning while pumping gas. 

Survivor William Hall said, “Everybody tells me I’m lucky, and I feel that way. I really do.”

What started as a routine stop for gas, ended in a near death experience for William Hall Wednesday.

“Started pumping the gas, and I seen a very bright orange light, followed by a very bright white light, and then total darkness. I went out,” said Hall.

Surveillance cameras at the K & K Food Mart captured the amazing video of a lightning bolt hitting the parking lot. A few minutes after Hall paid, you can see the flash outside.

Another camera caught Hall falling over after the bolt struck.

Chief Ross Annable from Barker Police said, “Pretty amazing, and pretty lucky that he’s able to survive and walk away from it.”

And with that I bid Farewell for now.
If you suport Wal*Mart then you support:
A bankrupt America
Higher Crime
Higher gas Prices
Tax Payer bailouts!
Enjoy!
I’m off having fun!
It’s good to be king!

One last thing for all the hyper smart, holyer than though, Anti American Cheapskates:
Fannie Mae said it will set aside the loan of a woman who shot herself as sheriff’s deputies tried to evict her from her foreclosed home.

Fannie Mae foreclosed on the Akron, Ohio, home of Addie Polk, 90, after acquiring the mortgage in 2007.

Addie Polk, 90, of Akron, Ohio, became a symbol of the nation’s home mortgage crisis when she was hospitalized after shooting herself at least twice in the upper body Wednesday afternoon.

On Friday, Fannie Mae spokesman Brian Faith said the mortgage association had decided to halt action against Polk and sign the property “outright” to her.

“We’re going to forgive whatever outstanding balance she had on the loan and give her the house,” Faith said. “Given the circumstances, we think it’s appropriate.”

Residents of Akron have rallied behind Polk, who is being treated at Akron General Medical Center. She was listed in critical condition Friday afternoon, according to Akron City Council President Marco Sommerville.

Rest in peace MF’s!!!!!!

What’s Bad for Wal*Mart is Good for America!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

John McCain to condemn Confederate flag
Out of the media spotlight and away from the presidential crucible, the Arizona senator will take a stand on a South Carolina controversy.

- - - - - - - - - - - -
By Jake Tapper
Arizona Sen. John McCain will fly to Columbia, S.C., Wednesday morning, where he will attempt to mend his one campaign regret by condemning the Confederate flag flying atop the state Capitol.

In what he is calling a “speech on conservative reform,” McCain will speak Wednesday at noon at a South Carolina restaurant, flanked by Rep. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., one of his chief presidential-campaign backers in the state. He will tacitly support a compromise bill passed last week by the state Senate that would move the flag from atop the Capitol dome to a Confederate soldiers’ memorial on state grounds. He will support the idea that South Carolinians are solving the issue on their own, though he does not plan on supporting the specific bill, as has been reported elsewhere.

The issue is a personal one for McCain, sources close to him say, because he feels it represents the one moment during his presidential campaign when he violated a promise he made to the American people to always tell the truth, regardless of the political consequences. After dodging questions during the campaign about his personal feelings over the appropriateness of the Confederate flag flying above the Capitol—which he did for fear of voter backlash in the South Carolina primary—McCain will express regret that he honored politics over principle. Personally, he believes that flying the flag over the Capitol is wrong, as it deeply offends so many blacks.

Additionally, the sources say, McCain will note that his Southern ancestors owned slaves, a fact he learned from Salon during a February interview.

During a Jan. 9 TV interview, McCain called the Confederate flag “offensive” and “a symbol of racism and slavery,” though he said he could see the other side of the issue as well. Later he waffled clumsily back to the more conservative view, saying: “Some view it as a symbol of slavery. Others view it as a symbol of heritage. “But that statement was apparently more pander than principle.

Many supporters of the flag claim they’re merely fighting for the preservation of Southern heritage. But to many others it’s a symbol of slavery and bigotry. It is fairly well known—albeit generally unreported—that the flag is displayed outside bars and restaurants throughout the South where blacks are not welcome.

It is unknown whether McCain will, on Wednesday, condemn Richard Quinn, his chief South Carolina advisor, who edits a racially controversial magazine called Southern Partisan. During his campaign, McCain brushed off requests from the liberal interest group People for the American Way when it asked him to fire Quinn. According to the group, Quinn’s articles have called Nelson Mandela a “terrorist” and King a man “whose role in history was to lead his people into a perpetual dependence on the welfare state, a terrible bondage of body and soul.” In another piece, Quinn said of former Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke, “What better way to reject politics as usual than to elect a maverick like David Duke?” though he did condemn Duke’s bigotry.
In 1983, when I was brand-new in the Congress, I voted against the recognition of Dr. Martin Luther King. And later I had the chance to ... help fight for ... the recognition of Dr. Martin Luther King as a holiday in my state.”

Big Day in Benton County
The Confederate soldier, a few blocks from Wal-Mart Headquarters in the heart of the Bentonville Square, will celebrate his 100th birthday this week. The city’s Confederate monument was erected through the efforts of James H. Berry Chapter No. 821 of the United Daughters of the Confederacy and by A. J. Bates, a Bentonville businessman.

Proud city leaders are throwing a party to honor the monument this Friday. Bentonville Mayor Bob McCaslin will read an official proclamation, and box lunches will be available for purchase. Organizers say they are hoping no one will fly Confederate flags, at least during the event. Not everyone seems to appreciate the importance of the monument to the residents of Benton County, and the county has spent $1,600 to replace its balls stolen by vandals.

Barack Obama, whose Arkansas ancestors fought for the Confederacy during the Late Unpleasantness, is not planning to attend the ceremony. However, many local dignitaries will be in attendance for the event, and it is anticipated that the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette will provide extensive favorable coverage of the ceremony and glories of the Lost Cause.

Senator John McCain is flying into XNA and will be bringing his campaign message to Benton County that day. Having chosen the day of the Confederate ceremony to catch local Republicans in a buoyant spirit, McCain will hold a $500-per-person reception later that day at the Embassy Suites on Pinnacle Hills Parkway in Rogers.

McCain did not attend the original parade and dedication of the Confederate statue in 1908.

Wednesday, August 06, 2008~~~~~~~~~~~~~NOTE: Hilly Billy, don’t give up yet. I suppose there IS hope in hypocrisy.

...the Late Unpleasantness...

That is one peach of a euphemism!

The War Between the States is over, boys and girls. Now all we have to worry about is those infernal carpetbaggers!

“There is no perceived risk in attacking Wal-Mart anymore. They have gone from being a business success story to being a cultural villain.” ~ Eric Dezenhall

Ken V: Weren’t the carpetbaggers the forerunners of today’s corporatebaggers,including those from Arkansas?

Apparently Walmart watch missed the update that Walmart decided not to remove the DRM server at this time.
