Another Obama assassination plot

Feds disrupt skinhead plot to assassinate Obama

WASHINGTON – Law enforcement agents have broken up a plot by two neo-Nazi skinheads to assassinate Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama and shoot or decapitate 88 black people, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco Firearms and Explosives said Monday.
In court records unsealed Monday in U.S. District Court in Jackson, Tenn., federal agents said they disrupted plans to rob a gun store and target a predominantly African-American high school in a murder spree that was to begin in Tennessee. Agents said the skinheads did not identify the school by name.
Jim Cavanaugh, special agent in charge of ATF’s Nashville field office, said the two men planned to kill 88 people, including 14 African-Americans by beheading. The numbers 88 and 14 are symbolic in the white supremacist community.

A few months ago I shocked someone when I said my vote would be going for the vice-presidential candidate… because Obama is at high risk for being killed by a racist nut-job and McCain… well he’s old. I haven’t felt this excited (and scared) about an election in many years (not since Clinton’s first run) I wonder whatever happened to the republican ideal of less government and individual rights… when did the Republican Party become the party of big business, racists and religious nut-jobs all wanting to make sure I’m sleeping with someone of the opposite gender (and that my child is not exposed to the gay)

New(ish) pattern uploaded

I’ve scanned and uploaded the Huntington Sweater from the 1915 Fleisher’s Knitting and Crochet Manual.

It is available both as pictures that are printable and as a pdf (well once it finally uploads to the server).

As far as actual knitting goes- slowly working on the husband’s scarf, but taking a break and working on my first toes up socks… well both first toes up and doing two at once.  Yup, trying to break the second sock denial that most knitters seem to got through.
