Skip to comments.If You Can't Withstand Media BS, Turn Off Everything Else...(Rush Slams Concern Trolls Alert)
Posted on 11/01/2012 11:20:19 AM PDT by goldstategop
RUSH: Folks, I'm gonna give you some advice. For those of you who are faint of heart, for those of you who scare easily, for those of you who... Lets say you live in St. Louis. In the St. Louis Post-Dispatch today there are two pictures. There's a picture of a compassionate and caring and very attached and very hurting Obama, hugging a New Jerseyan who's lost everything. Right next to it is a picture of Romney in front of a large gathering waving and doing campaign appearances.
Of course, the juxtaposition is Romney doesn't care; Obama cares. If you live in St. Louis and you're conservative, you look at that and think, Oh, my God. Oh, it's finished. It's over with. See, that's what Christie did. That's what Christie did for us. We don't have a chance. If youre like that, turn it off! I don't want you reading the Internet. I don't want you watching television.
I don't want you doing anything that is going to affect your turnout.
If you scare easily, if you're looking for reasons to be upset, if you're not confident anyway, stay away from the Internet and television starting now. Just come here every day from noon to three, and I with no reason to lie to you -- will tell you what's up. I've always told you: I will tell you when it's time to panic. It is not time to panic. So... (interruption) Well, yeah, if you get too angry, too.
No, no, no, I don't care about anger. I don't care about that. I just don't want turnout affected. It's a turnout election now, pure turnout.
Theres not a whole lot of persuading left that can be done, do you think? Most of the persuasion has taken place. Ah, maybe some of the undecideds, you never know, but it's a turnout race now. So if you're gonna watch stuff on the Internet and television that's gonna depress you, don't.
Just don't turn it on.
RUSH: You know at this press conference last night with Governor Christie (continuing in his role as Greek column of President Obama) was saying that the first thing they had to do was get gasoline into the state. By the way, folks, Jonah Goldberg, our old buddy at National Review Online, had a pretty good take here. He said, The irony here is exquisite. Obama does his job for a couple days ago and everybody yells, Game-changer!
How many of you...? I know you're out there. You called here yesterday. I get e-mails from you. Rush, it's over. It's over! Did you see that? The press and Christie, they're helping Obama look presidential, and I tried to explain that the fundamentals of this election are deeper than this. But the real point to be made here is: So the guy acts presidential and does his job for a couple days and everybody says game-changer?
Wait a second. In addition to that, what game-changer? I thought he had it wrapped up anyway. Nate Silver says it's over: 51-48 Obama, a 79% chance. Let's see. Pew says it's over. CBS/New York Times says it's over. I mean, they're not saying this, but with their polling they're trying to make everybody think it's over. What game changer? Why's everybody get so hot to trot that Obama did his job for a couple days?
A, it logically means that people instinctively know he hasn't been doing anything that amounts to anything for a long time. The second thing is: If he's gonna win anyway, why do you need to change the game? What game-changer? See, the left (and even Obama himself, if you listen carefully) and the media, if you listen carefully, will tell you that they fear Obama is losing. They'll tell you they think Romney's surging.
Not in those words. It's little things like this. Obama acts presidential. He gets a picture, a picture hugging a woman in New Jersey, and Oh, no, it's over! Oh, no, it's a game-changer. He's supposed to be doing that every day. And I'll tell you something else. This is just me. Obama went to New Jersey with Chris Christie, but in Queens and even in parts of New Jersey -- Hoboken, in lower Manhattan -- nobody's doing anything.
I don't know if they're calling anybody and getting straight through or not. But don't forget, Obama goes out and basically admits the government is not functioning. He's gotta give special orders for the government to freaking function. When Romney says, I want to do that every day, Obama says, Yeah, taking us back to the problems that got us into this mess.
But for every woman that Obama hugged in New Jersey are 15,000 people in line for a gallon of gasoline for their generators in New Jersey and Queens and so forth.
That's what, I mean. If this stuff is gonna upset you, don't watch it.
Turn the TV off now.
Its not over like Nate Silver and the MSM want you to think.
Conservatives shouldn't panic. Now is the time for steady nerves and determination! You folks are gonna need them in spades!
There is nothing short of 6 feet of dirt oer my dead body that could keep me from voting against that bastard on November 6th. Hell, if I die before then and I can sneak away from old Scratch for a bit, I'll vote against Obama!
God bless you, Gaffer. We are all going to show up with more than enthusiasm. This is mortal combat and a mission with a fuse, like a rocket! Oh yes, we will be firing on all cylinders.
Broken glass at Mach 10.
I had a dear aunt die this past June. She was ultra conservative and despised Obama like no other. At her funeral, a cousin got up to tell the congregation that all she wanted was to live long enough to vote against Obama." Well, he said I think we've found a way to make that possible, we're shipping her body to Chicago".
By this weekend with people in NY and NJ runnng out of food and gas, and looters on the move, the obama adminstration and obama's FEMA should face the same criticism the left threw at George Bush
Fact is there is NO adult running this show, as Bush and Giuliani did during 9-11
Bloomberg and Christie can take a 747 planeload of obama-cash and drop it over the countryside but people will still be in misery
Imagine what Romney, Trump and other experienced crisis managers would be marshalling as a group, if they were in power to do so
Concern trolls are just bored people that cant keep away from media outlets.
Saw them during the Recall Election. All day just going on about wild conspiracy theories of union thugs being bused in from Detroit and California to "steal" the election or looking at every report trying to find some clue as to what is going on, but always jumping on the most negative crap to scream that the "fix is in".
What they need to get is that the Romney people have the most sophisticated GOTV machines anyone has ever seen. They are flushed with cash, and are running like clockwork, and an election that was called for Obama a month ago is now turning into a Romney rout.
So turn off the TV, and do something productive, and remember to vote.
Ha ha (not her passing, the cousin's remark)
Myself, I'd have ordered an absentee ballot for her.
Make certain that we are focused, not thin skinned, not easily deterred by crapaganda. On Tuesday, take yourself and AT LEAST one other person to the polls. That's it - easy as pie. We've got this won, we just need to show up and claim our victory for America.
[Rush] Limbaugh Predicts McCain Victory (NewsMax ^ | October 31, 2008 | David A. Patten via FR post)
I wonder what happened to those who took this advice four years ago Oct 31, 2008.
EDIT: Left out the 'don't' before the word "spout" in my reply.
Proofreading - what a novel concept!
This area of the country is not the lazy, do nothing libs. These are many well educated, hard working liberals - the ones who look down on conservatives as Bible beaters and rednecks. All of a sudden, these well to do libs are looking around and seeing government inefficiency and wishing they had a gun.
The Eeyores are coming! The Eeyores are coming!
Rush isn't right ALL the time.
He got the 2008 Obama landslide wrong - just beware he's not a prophet and we do fail at such prognostications.
Its a lesson that Gallup is usually right! Ignore it to your peril.
OMG!!!! We might lose New Jersey and New York!!!
[Saw them during the Recall Election. All day just going on about wild conspiracy theories of union thugs being bused in from Detroit and California to steal the election or looking at every report trying to find some clue as to what is going on, but always jumping on the most negative crap to scream that the fix is in.]
And yet we have Glenn Beck warning us all to watch his special tonight entitled something to the effect of, "How Obama will steal the election".
I heard this and thought how ridiculous it is. This is the kind of overblown crap that makes the wishy washy stay home and think their vote doesn't count. Will there be cheating? I'm sure there will. Will it determine who wins? No way.

When you're in California, you don't see spit from the GOP most years, and I haven't seen a thing from Romney. How am I supposed to know?
Admittedly difficult to completely shut down all alphabet news media, let's make a concerted effort to make sure any news consumption is not NBC. It's doable. They're hurting as it is and we could finish 'em off. I'll do my part and remove my final piece ; Sunday's MTP.
Of all the alphabets, they're clearly the most deserving. I'd pay to put them out of business along with the rest of the liberal slime.
In 2008 I made the exact opposite prediction of Rush, that McCain would lose. This one is not as clear cut as then.
I am peed that Christie is hugging and praising O on camera and he now says that he doesn't care who wins this election after he was so strongly pushing him (MR) in the primary. That got him a keynote speech at the convention and if O wins re-election then he could potentially run in 2016.
Christie Endorses Romney Ahead of GOP Debate ( October 11, 2011 FoxNews.com)
I don't especially like Mitt but those who endorsed him and now abandon him are on my crap list.
Can we watch the msm and panic if we've already voted?
" he now says that he doesn't care who wins this election after he was so strongly pushing him (MR) in the primary."
Christie actually said this ?
I dont give a damn about Election Day. It doesnt matter a lick to me at the moment. Ive got bigger fish to fry, a solemn Christie told reporters during a morning briefing in which he outlined the damage from Sandy.
Christie said he spoke to President Barack Obama at midnight. He assured me that we would have an expedited process with FEMA, Christie said.
Chris Christie says Sandy first: I dont give a damn about Election Day
After being asked if he would give Romney a tour of the damage he said
I have no idea nor am I the least bit concerned or interested. I've got a job to do here in New Jersey that's much bigger than presidential politics and I could care less about any of that stuff. I have a job to do," said Christie on "Fox and Friends. "
Christie: I don't give 'a damn' about presidential politics right now
Ok, that is not the same thing as him saying that he doesn't care who wins.
The "education" they got was in herd mentality. They wouldn't act on such knowledge as you suppose they are newly coming to, not unless they were convinced that everybody in their set was doing it. They have been trained to keep each other in line.
No matter how discouraged you may get with the election, GET OUT AND VOTE!! I already have. I stood in line for nearly three hours. Many of the voters there were loud and boisterous Obozo supporters. I ignored them and finally got in and voted for Romney.
Ignore the media, ignore the polls, ignore the pundits, and go VOTE! That is what matters.
I am not happy with Tubby's behavior.
No cannolli's for him.

Shocking Numbers That Show The Media Is Lying To You About Unemployment In America
By Michael snyder
February 1st, 2013
Did you know that the percentage of the U.S. labor force that is employed has continually been falling since 2006 according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics? Did you know that the increase in the number of Americans "not in the labor force" during Barack Obama's first four years in the White House was more than three times greater than the increase in the number of Americans "not in the labor force" during the entire decade of the 1980s? The mainstream media would have us believe that 157,000 jobs were added to the U.S. economy in January. Based on that news, the Dow broke the 14,000 barrier for the first time since October 2007. But if you actually look at the "non-seasonally adjusted" numbers, the number of Americans with a job actually decreased by 1,446,000 between December and January. But nowhere in the mainstream media did you hear that the U.S. economy lost more than 1.4 million jobs between December and January. It is amazing the things that you can find out when you actually take the time to look at the hard numbers instead of just listening to the media spin. Back in 2007, more than 146 million Americans were employed. Today, only 141.6 million Americans are employed even though our population has grown steadily since then. When the government and the media tell you that we are in a "recovery" and that unemployment is lower than it was a couple of years ago, I encourage you to dig deeper. The truth is that even the government's own numbers tell us that the percentage of the U.S. labor force that is employed continues to fall and that the U.S. economy is heading into a recession. The Obama administration and the media have been lying to you about unemployment and about the true condition of our economy. After you see the numbers that I have compiled in this article, I think that you will agree with me.
First of all, let's take a look at the percentage of the civilian labor force that has been employed over the past several years. These numbers come directly from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. As you can see, this is a number that has been steadily falling since 2006...
2006: 63.1
2007: 63.0
2008: 62.2
2009: 59.3
2010: 58.5
2011: 58.4
In January, only 57.9 percent of the civilian labor force was employed.
Do the numbers above represent a positive trend or a negative trend?
Even a 2nd grader could answer that question.
So how in the world can the Obama administration and the mainstream media claim that the employment picture is getting better and that we are in a "recovery"?
But most Americans believe what they are told. It is almost as if we are in some kind of a "matrix" where reality is defined by the corporate-controlled propaganda that is relentlessly pumped into our brains.
The only way that the government has been able to show a declining unemployment rate is by dumping massive numbers of Americans into the "not in the labor force" category.
Just check out how the number of Americans "not in the labor force" has absolutely skyrocketed in recent years...
2006: 77,387,000
2007: 78,743,000
2008: 79,501,000
2009: 81,659,000
2010: 83,941,000
2011: 86,001,000
In January, there were supposedly 89,868,000 Americans that were at least 16 years of age that were not in the labor force.
That number has risen by more than 8 million since Barack Obama first entered the White House, and that is highly unusual, because the number of Americans "not in the labor force" only increased by 2,518,000 during the entire decade of the 1980s.
You sure can get the numbers to look more "favorable" if you pretend that millions upon millions of American workers simply "don't want a job" any longer. The truth is that if the labor force participation rate was at the same level it was at when Barack Obama was first elected, the official unemployment rate would be well above 10 percent.
But that wouldn't do at all, would it? 7.9 percent sounds so much nicer.
And of course even if you do have a job that does not mean that you are doing okay.
If you can believe it, in America today 41 percent of all workers make $20,000 a year or less.
To me, that is a mind blowing statistic. It would be incredibly challenging for anyone to live on $20,000 a year, much less try to support a family.
If you live in Washington D.C. or New York City and you have a "good job" working for the establishment, you may not realize it, but there are tens of millions of American families that are really hurting out there. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, more than 146 million Americans are either "poor" or "low income" at this point, and most of those people actually do have jobs.
For much more on the "working poor" in the United States, please see my previous article entitled "35 Statistics About The Working Poor In America That Will Blow Your Mind".
If something is not done, the middle class will continue to disappear and poverty in America will continue to explode.
In a previous article, I noted that during Obama's first term, the number of Americans on food stamps increased by an average of about 11,000 per day.
How bad do things have to get before people realize that we are living through a nightmare?
Sadly, most Americans still have faith in the system.
Most Americans are still convinced that our politicians will somehow find a way to turn things around.
Most Americans will gather around their television sets this weekend and watch the Super Bowl and laugh at all the funny commercials without even thinking about how America is literally falling apart all around them.
But there is one group of Americans that is acutely aware of how bad things have really gotten. Small businesses have traditionally been the primary engine of job growth in this country, but right now small business owners all over the nation are facing a tremendous crisis.
Millions of small businesses are on the verge of extinction, and yet our politicians just continue to pile on more taxes, more rules and more regulations.
A recent Gallup poll found that 61 percent of all small business owners in America are "worried about the potential cost of healthcare", and that an astounding 30 percent of all small business owners in America are not hiring and fear that they will go out of business within the next 12 months.
In a previous article entitled "We Are Witnessing The Death Of Small Business In America", I detailed how small businesses in America are being systematically wiped out. Small businesses are dying all around us, and the number of new small businesses continues to decline.
According to economist Tim Kane, the following is how the decline in the number of startup jobs per one thousand Americans breaks down by presidential administration...
Bush Sr.: 11.3
Clinton: 11.2
Bush Jr.: 10.8
Obama: 7.8
Is that a good trend or a bad trend?
All of this is so simple that even the family pet should be able to figure it out, and yet most Americans seem oblivious to all of this. They just keep gobbling up the mainstream media propaganda and they just continue to go out and wildly spend money.
It is almost as if we didn't learn any lessons from 2008.
Even while household spending in Europe has moderated, household spending in the United States continues to soar. Just check out the chart in this article.
And guess what? The infamous "no money down mortgages" are back. If we wait long enough, perhaps "interest only mortgages" will make a comeback as well.
Unfortunately, I am afraid that time is running out. we have been living in the biggest debt bubble in the history of the world, and it is only a matter of time until it bursts.
2008 was just a "hiccup" compared to what is coming.
Our politicians and the Federal Reserve were able to keep the house of cards from completely crashing down back then, but they are not going to be able to avert the economic horror show that is rapidly approaching.
I hope that you are getting prepared. Back in 2008, millions of Americans suddenly lost their jobs, and because many of them did not have any savings, many of them suddenly lost their homes. One of the most important things that you can do to prepare for the coming crisis is to build up an emergency fund. If things suddenly go bad, you don't want to lose your house and everything that you have always worked for.
In addition, anything that you can do to become more self-sufficient and more independent of the system is a good thing, because the system is failing. The years ahead are going to be much more chaotic than what we are experiencing right now, and when the next crisis strikes you will be very thankful for the time and the energy that you put into preparing.
So what are all of you seeing in your own areas?
Are businesses shutting down?
Are people having a hard time finding good jobs?
Ping for you.
So what are all of you seeing in your own areas?
Business last year(2012)for me was up 64% on the year!
Business compared Jan. 2012 to 2013...still up 25%!
Trying how to hire at least two part-time employees.
Are businesses shutting down?
Short answer is ...yes! Even though my own business growth is great...overall picture is still sour.
Are people having a hard time finding good jobs?
Yes, people are having a hardtime finding good jobs. I have clients that have been looking for over 6 months, some are going back to school for advanced degrees instead. Not sure that is the wisest choice given the outlook, but it is their lives, not mine.
Black market labor and let's not forget dealing drugs. I have been advertising for help for several months. Nature of my business often means I hire temp. help or independents. I have had a number of folks turn down the jobs when they find out our state required I report them as new hires....even as contractors to be filed on 1099's.
Black market labor force is starting to really operate and push back on the economy. While they may not want to give up their benefits to work, they don't want to pay their fair share either if they do take a job.
Where is the author using selective statistics? He has simply looked at the actual numbers that the BLS has published and that are ignored by the main stream media. That is the point of the article"actual unemployment numbers are not being reported". And please save your, economics 101 lessons. Significant unemployment, means lower GDP. One more quarter of lower GDP and we are officially in a recession!
Good article. I try and tell people around me this from time to time and they don't want to hear it. Actually my area has seen a great influx of new businesses in the last few years. Many new restaurants and retail stores so there's a decent amount of jobs available here, not the best paying jobs but they are jobs.
>One of the last things keeping white Americans voting Democrat is the fact that they dont want blacks to stop aborting their children.
Are there any numbers on how many of these abortions are performed yearly?
We're fortunate in that although we are sandwiched between Newark and Jersey City, we have two rivers which serve as moats. They can get in & out, but their escape routes are limited.
Any time people around me see "likely perps", they just call the police (and the police respond to shoo them away); NJ is so segregated that "likely perps" stand out like sore thumbs.
I don't know that number but I've read that 70% of all Black pregnacies end in abortion.
I saw the same thing yesterday. Several sticks of sausage, four boxes of Velveeta, two bottles of Pace hot sauce, several boxes of wheat thins and some other crackers, five or six cans of salted nuts and out comes the EBT card. Can you say Super Bowl party?
After he swipes the card, the cashier asks the guy "Do you need any extra cash?" Guy gets $40.00 cash to probably buy beer at the liquor store down the street. Just sickening.
"Are there any numbers on how many of these abortions are performed yearly?"
I don't know; people have posted totals, but I'd imagine it would be impossible to get a racial breakdown (can't expose the genocide). In my town pregnant teenage white girls have to travel to neighboring welfare reservations to kill the babies; they house the abortion mills there. I believe the lib strategy has paid off; since the welfare reform of 1996 I can't tell you how many unmarried young black females I work with who just have one child (simply to get on the dole/get the freebies). BJ Clinton ended the "bastard bonus" (by which more kids meant more money), and the black birthrate dropped IMMEDIATELY. Rather than being passed by Hispanics in numbers in 2010 as originally projected, they were passed in 2000 (and will continue to recede into obscurity, followed not far behind by whites).
Barack Obama was not elected by the power of black votes; he was elected by people pushing their own (non-racial) agendas, which he dutifully carries out regardless of his own preferences (see "gay marriage", ongoing war in Afghanistan, extension of Bush tax cuts). He is the dupe of the Left, and "his people" (at least on daddy's side) are paying a terrible price.
I was in Wal Mart yesterday.
First of month mad house.
Carts were overflowing, but not a single person around me was paying for any of the food themselves.
Had money for other thing they were buying, but not food.
When I paid with cash the checker looked at me like I was crazy.
With so many baby boomers leaving the workforce, there should be a shortage of LABOR, not jobs.
I'm no economist, but this seems basic to me. The retiring bbers should have been a boost to the economy I would think.
But Joe Biden just said this is the beginning of the new Gilded Age. How could this be?
This cannot be true. Jay Carney just told me the economy is headed in the right direction.
This is why we have the problems we do, and it's also why none can be fixed. Every day brings a new outrage, another colossal FAIL, another capitulation to sin, another rationalization, another lie.
Nothing will change for the better without major pain and deprivation . No one changes unless they have to.
Thanks. I've got five people in my little micro practice (solo legal practice) who make their living through me. After I pay them, there's not much left for me, at least this past year. I'm basically working for nothing.
Maybe he meant "Gelded Age."
Thank you for your responses. It is quite obvious to me the food stamps program is out of control. I will start writing to as many elected critters as possible. Not that it will do much good, but it is better than keeping silent.
What I do not understand is how do people who can barely speak English get on such welfare programs. I am certain the welfare office does not check their legal status.
Now I have to sit down and prepare my tax return. I know now exactly where my tax money will go.
1.An initial report of a survey of establishments. Even if the survey sample was perfect (and we all know that it is not) and the response rate was 100% (which it is not) the sampling error alone for a 90% confidence interval is +/- 100K jobs.
2.The report is revised to reflect additional responses over the next two months. This is especially important this month since the official survey response date has been moved forward by a week. This is a routine adjustment for the Thanksgiving holiday, but it increases the potential for error and later revision.
3.There is an adjustment to account for job creation. Everyone focuses on the birth/death adjustment. This actually accounts for less than 20% of the BLS attempt to estimate job creation.
4.The final data are bench marked against the state employment data every year.For the year ending in March, 2012, the BLS estimate was off by about 30K jobs per month overall, and 35k jobs per month on private employment. The January report will incorporate these benchmark revisions.
Now go find someone else to quibble with.
We got the last paperwork for our tax return today, so that will get started on Monday. Frickin moochers.
One is bi-racial (and in the Air Force reserves now as well as gainfully employed) and the other is white. There was a time when I qualified for reduced price school lunch for both of them (I was divorced and received no child support but worked two jobs). My bi-racial son NEVER EVER EVER got audited although the information on his application was identical to my daughter's. My daughter got audited EVERY.SINGLE.TIME. Most of these bureaucracies don't want any "trouble" from community organizers so they just look the other way and approve them for assistance. White people, on the other hand are put through several flaming hoops and the standard application grist mill.
Article; post; interesting thread BUMP!
"What I do not understand is how do people who can barely speak English get on such welfare programs. I am certain the welfare office does not check their legal status."
There are government agencies HERE that steer them into those programs; there is a whole "poverty indiustry" that has been built to redistribute your wealth, and countless bureaucrats make nice livings doing it.
That is a very interesting anecdotal story! Just amazing, 2 kids from the same family getting a different treatment!!

No, since one of the requirements is that the underside be open for wheelchair access and a second one is that the bottom of the sink be at least 29" high. Most pedestals are lower than that.
: Is there such a thing as an ADA compliant pedestal sink? The trap is so ugly I want to hide it behind the pedestal.

Avoid ice cube toes
Keep your feet warm this winter with Gore's Oxygen Light Overshoes. They rely on one of our favorite Gore fabrics ever — WindSstopper Soft Shell. It eliminates 100% of the cold air infiltration and keeps your body heat inside so your feet will feel toasty warm. In addition, the WindStopper membrane will reflect splashes from puddles or wet roads and drizzly moisture in the air.
The soles are relieved to allow your cleats and heel pads to contact the ground for a normal walking experience (as normal as it can be in cycling shoes). And Gore was thoughtful enough to use abrasion resistant material around the sole openings. There are reflective elements on the outsides of each overshoe. Zippered backs allow easy entry, and a hook-and-loop tab at the top provides redundant security against accidental opening.
The Gore Oxygen Light Overshoes are Black and come in four sizes from Small to X-Large.

If only I were 10 again..
"As soon as I saw it, I loved the versatile color of the bag and the nice long handles. But the bow is a little much. It's a cute concept but it hasn't really been translated into grown-up style. I like everything else but the major (and only) design element could use some attention and refinement. Jessica, you disappoint me yet again!"

Deps Slither K
The DEPS Slither K was designed to be fished in the thickest, nastiest cover imaginable. Its unorthodox body profile, cupped sides, flat belly and advanced balancing system were strategically calculated to facilitate a killer walk-the-dog action and produce an incredible amount of turbulence.
Its super soft construction combined with the precisely-angled, custom-designed hook make the Slither K extremely weedless, and at the same time, provide an excellent hook up ratio. The rear portion of the bait also has two evenly distributed holes, so the air within the body is quickly released, further ensuring solid hooksets, while automatically releasing water on the cast.
The natural feel and appearance of rabbit fur adds an extra element of natural appearance to the lure as it slithers back and forth on the surface, offering subtle movements and undulations that can only be produced with a natural material. As an added bonus, when the hair gets wet the extra weight from the water makes it more wind-resistant and allows for longer distance casts. Available in a range of killer colors, the DEPS Slither K is ready to rock-and-roll right out of the package - no tuning necessary.

Customer Reviews
Comments: Very efficient bait, it almost walks the frog alone, its small profile + very soft body + sharp hooks = above level hook up ratio. Even its casting distance is good which is surprising for small frog. If it was not its price I would have it in ten models.
From: Ben: France 2/20/17
Comments: I have a few of these, belly weight fell of one after about 6 fish. Personally, they are just too light for me, I Am fishing an irod "freds magic stick" its a fairly stout rod, but anything under a 1/2 ounce I just have trouble casting with.. I guess I could use another rod, but sometimes I just need to draw the line in buying rods for a specific lure. I will admit if this frog was a 1/2 ounce it would be my go to, as other said the action is outstanding!!!
From: Brett: NY 2/14/15
Comments: Best walking frog on the market, hands down. I have all of the others (bronzeye, livetarget, etc.) and none quite measure up. This thing just walks so effortlessly, pivots and wiggles unlike anything else and never seems to ever take on water. It might be expensive but I don't care. I even have strips of rabbit fur for when the tail gets rocked and needs to be replaced. Hookups are great, action is perfect and the frog itself is very well thought out and tough. 10/10 will buy again & wish there were more colors available on TW!
From: Matt: USA 9/19/14
Comments: been wanting one for a long time but because their $20 a pop I've held off. I saw TW had them in stock and I said what the hell and got one. Took it out for a test spin on a pond and I loved the action this frog has. Long story short first 20 min had a 5lber eat it , almost had it to the bank and pop ! My 65 lb braid broke. Not the best feeling losing a big fish and a $20 frog. When I got home I ordered 2 more because this frog has a action that is unique, I think it's a must have for any hardcore frog fisherman
From: Dave: Columbia, MD 7/15/14
Comments: Really got into frog fishing last year. I tried a lot of frogs and this one and the Buster K rose to the surface in regards to quality, fish catching ability and design. Walks like a dream, especially over thick cheese and extreme slop. Skips great under docks and trees. It has a very small profile which may lead to more strikes from wary fish. It looks a lot like a mouse scurrying over the water. I threw it a lot and never had any issues with the weight coming off or the body tearing. My baits seemed to handle a lot of use all summer/fall. It's expensive, but worth the cost if you really love fishing frogs. Try the Buster K as well, just as good.
From: Frankdi: Welland, Ontario, Canada
Comments: just for everybodys info I have caught over 100 bass on this bait .the tail does not last that long but very easy to replace. when the hair is gone pull the rest of the tail out and go to a fly tie shop and get some rabbit hair strips cut to size and use a big needle to thread the hide of the rabbit hair into the hole and use a tiny drop of super glue and good as new. you can repeat this time and time again also if the plastic rips super glue respond great I had a slither k ripped to shreds by a pike and super glued it and it is still catching tons of bass.
From: Jim: lake tomahawk wisconsin
Comments: I purchased 5 of these from this website. I have been very impressed with the action and also see better hook ups due to the weight being located on the outside of the frog body and above the hook. The "walk the dog" action is great, and if you practice working it with some slack in the line it will almost hover in place. There is a major design flaw in that the weight separates from the hook rather quickly. Once that happens the body of the frog separates from the weight and it begins to tear horizontally across the bottom of the frog. After that it takes on water and begins to sink, killing the action. It has happened on all 5 of mine. I sent email to Optimum Baits and was told that they acknowledged that this was an issue however Deps considers it normal wear therefore they could not be replaced. I have fished for 20 years and used all the major brands of frogs. All of them were far more durable than this $20 item. I'm not buying anymore until the design is improved or Deps gets behind its product. I can still smoke them on a Pad Crusher for a fraction of the cost and more durability.
From: CR: Louisiana
Comments: best frog on the market right now took 2nd place in one of my tournaments on this frog got one of each color get them well you can
From: Mike: Akron OH
Comments: The truly remarkable thing about this frog is in the action. Unlike all the other frog makers, the developers at Deps designed their frog completely from the perspective of a fish looking up at it. As pretty as all the other frogs look, the fish only sees the belly of the frog and how it moves across the water. Instead of lavishly wasting effort into designing a frog to appear to look like a frog to an angler, they focused their attention to how the frog would look like to a fish as it swims across the water. Its motion and dog walking action is second to none and drive the Bass crazy. For best results, try walking the frog 4-5 motions with a slightly more aggressive jerk on the 4th or 5th motion causing the frog to spit, and then repeat. Then pause for about 3-4 seconds and repeat again. Wait for it╜ Then hold on to dear life! Two thumbs up and a standing ovation for the developers at Deps.

Comments: I was extremely skeptical about this frog. I heard the hype and wanted to test it for myself. Hands down, best frog ever made in the frog world market. Best results - Walk the dog with 3-5 actions and on the last side movement, reel just a little harder so the frog slightly spits, then pause for about 3 seconds and repeat. Be aggressive at times but remember to pause through out the cast. This will cause the Bass to go crazy. Hook ratio is awesome and easy without a lot of delay. Anyone who has fished with this frog knows better to not go back any other one on the market. Standing ovation to Deps! Great Job! My only con - For a $19 frog, its well worth the money, however keep in mind that this frog has about a 25-30 fish limit as it will begin to lose its magic and start sinking as the water will fill them.
From: Frogger Man: MN
Comments: just recieved mine in the mail, and it looks awesome. ive heard great things and i am ready to hit the water. the tail is very cool, it is like a feather.
From: Scutt: KS
Comments: One of the best frogs in my opinion. Movement of this frog just drive bass nuts.
Comments: Ive caught my biggest bass on the slither k by deps in the shooting star color
From: Patrick
Comments: this is one of the best mouse/frog out there. i called it the crazy walk. so ez to walk the dog. but it do catch alot of bass and pike.
From: Skyline: Greenfield, WI
Comments: This frog flat out gets bit! The tail holds up super well but after about 40 fish on it it might be getting close to retirement. The bottom weight on mine is barley hanging on...any tips to keep it in? Either way if you like throwing the frog give this a try! Ill be buying another one.
From: Max: HB, CA
Comments: @Ryan, thanks for the great feedback... Just like many fisherman, frog fishing can become a passion. I have tried most of the new hollow bodied frogs that have raving reviews, spro, iobee, jackall, and the Deps looks unbelievable in the water. It actually walks the dog much better than the iobee, which walks flawlessly. I purchased the albino pepper and man this thing just comes alive in the water... Lets all be honest, when fishing a top water frog, it does not necessarily look like a real frog, but I can honestly say this lure looks like a small mouse scurrying away from cover in the water.
From: Brett: Rochester, NY
Comments: i literally threw all my other frogs out by far this deps product changes the total game in frog fishing .i cant remember how many years we alway have seen the same type of frog design for the last 30 years at least. the action this frog puts out in the water is incredible . it has outfished my kopper and spro frogs by 5 to 1. who ever designed this lure should get a major award . it looks totally identical to a mouse or frog swimming in the water .the way it responds to the rod action you give it is something to see. i have not been so excited about a lure in a long time . the last couple of years the koppers has got so much attention because of all the detail it has but the performance is not much difference then frogs of 10-30 years ago. you put them side by side and the slither k will change your mind forever. buy one!!!!!!!!!!!
From: Ryan: Houston, TX
Comments: best frog/mouse ever incredible side to side action like nothing on the market in a totally different class then kopper and spro frogs they dont perform anywhere near the slither k. best hook set best casting a whole new concept in a frog/ mouse design. you are very limited in action with the kopper and spro design they dont walk the dog anywhere near what the slither k does . no matter how you work it. the japanese bait buiders make the very best lures in the world this lure is one of the best examples . the rabbit hair acts like a natural mouse or rat tail in the water you have to see it work to believe it looks so real . buy one and you will never go back to anything other frog i promise
From: Jake: Austin, TX
Comments: worth every penny the very best hollow type body frog period .the kopper , spro, rivertosea ,and some others are basically all identical in some way. if you look very closely at this frog the flat lead weight is balanced perfectly it has a natural pivot point it walks the dog like no other the rabbit fur comes to life in the water and is totally industructable no other frog cast like this one it is like a bullet in the wind and on a calm day best hook set of any of them because of the type of plastic used and the design of the contoured body and how it collapes very quickly. the other companys i mentioned they may look totally like a frog but that is where it ends if you want total performance this is the only!!!!!!!! one.
From: Jim: Lake Tomahawk, WI
Comments: The best frog ever!!!!! Buy one you will not be disappointed. Walks amazing, the hook set is incretable, and they hold up great! I caught over 50 nice bass on one lure without it falling apart. They catch big BASS!!!
From: Jeff: San Juan Cap, CA
Comments: Very soft and a lot smaller than i expected not saying that's a negative in any way but only time will tell if this guy is a true killer. Looks and feels the part
From: Louis: Milwaukee, WI
Comments: All I can say is one thing. Best hollow Body frog on the market!
From: Cody: FL, USA
Comments: Great frog/mouse...Hooks tight on the body, and do not require cleaning every cast. No trouble walking the dog, and good hook set. Rabbit tail still intact after many catches....and a few misses :) Beats Koppers Live Target by a mile....or more.
From: Dick: Sterling, IL
Comments: Probably one of the best frogs on the market. Guarantee you'll catch fish. It is more expensive than other frogs but it is truly one of a kind when nothing else bites.
From: Jino: lake of the Ozarks, MO
Comments: Nice little frog. Small profile, but casts like a bullet. Does not sink, but harder to walk than most frogs. Will walk well, but you have to put some effort into it (not near as easy as a Bobby's or Ish frog). Above all, it catches fish very well. The fish seem to like it, as it has been out-catching my other frogs 2 to 1. Hookup ratio has been good--but as anyone knows that throws frogs, sometimes bass seem to have a depth perception problem and just miss the bait.
From: Brad: Texas
Comments: Great frog took got them yesterday and took it out yesterday on a tough lake caught a 4 and a 3 hooksets are so easy it is so soft great frog 5 stars
From: Tyler: Columbus, GA

The Track & Field Fuel-Up Challenge! Summer Fun that Helps Kids Learn
It's summer time! And kids' thoughts naturally turn to ways to have fun and enjoy themselves! Moms, on the other hand, want kids to continue to learn and develop their skills while they enjoy the lazy days of summer. The Track & Field Fuel-Up Challenge is an online game that meets the needs of moms and kids. The game inspires kids to jump into good nutrition and have fun while learning. It also helps kids to make good food choices and encourages them to be physically active between events to warm them up for the next challenge and to celebrate!
In this online game from USDA, kids pick their player and progress through four track and field events including the javelin, high jump, long jump, and the dash. To win, players must quickly pick the right answer to questions about healthy eating and nutrition. As players advance from one event to the next, they are encouraged to be active: "Now jump up and down five times to celebrate!" When kids answer correctly, their players get a medal at the end of the game. Questions are randomly selected so kids can play multiple times to get a better score or "go for the gold" on the winner's stand. Read more »

My name is Tayla, also known as "The Grammie Whisperer!" When I was 10 I really wanted to write a book about my Grammie and how I help take care of her. It was overwhelming though, so my mom suggested I make helpful videos for people caring with someone with Alzheimer's disease. So, with the help of my mom, we did!!! I have my own playlist on my mom's YouTube channel. I haven't made any videos recently because I am so busy, but I enjoyed making the ones I have made so far. I hope they help others in some way.
My mother-in-law has had Alzheimer's for quite a few years and although she has a lot of family support, it is difficult caring for someone with dementia and watching the disease take its toll. I took care of my father with Parkinson's Disease and dementia. I would not have traded the memories or time I have spent assisting them both with their daily needs.
It would be my second trip to the Telluride Film Festival in Colorado. But my Mom had never been, so we decided to make my next trip there our vacation together. My Mom is my best friend, and I looked forward to watching her reaction to the quaint main street surrounded by all those beautiful mountains. She hadn't been doing so well since she'd had a car accident a few years before. Trouble remembering where she put things, trouble formulating sentences. I told myself then that she was just growing older.

Farmer: Cotton good planting option
May 31, 2011
Freedom New Mexico: Argen Duncan Chet Chenault, left, and Colin Chandler check the depth of cotton seeds planted by machine last week in Chandler's field northwest of Portales. Chandler said cotton seeds must be planted about three-fourths of an inch deep.
Despite the drought and wind, a cotton farmer says the crop is a good option in Roosevelt County this year.
Farmer Colin Chandler said producers are planting only irrigated cotton now, compared to last year, when 30 percent to 40 percent was dryland.
"I wouldn't say our acreage is going to be down any," Chandler said of the county cotton crop. "I would just say we're going to see more irrigated and less dryland."
With high prices last year, Chandler said, farmers were able to get good contracts to raise cotton this year. Also, he said because of the lack of moisture, it's better to plant cotton than corn because cotton can survive with less water.
"You're not going to make a really good corn crop without the rain helping you, and right now we've had no rain," he said.
The deadline to plant cotton that will be insured is today, and Chandler said estimates on acreage would be available afterward.
Roosevelt County Agriculture Extension Agent Patrick Kircher said he knew of a lot of farmers who wanted to plant cotton, but the dry weather meant there wasn't enough soil moisture to get the crop to grow dryland.
"It is just so dry, everybody I've talked to is just holding their breath, waiting to see what happens," he said.
If the area received just a little precipitation, Kircher said, farmers would be more optimistic.
In two to three weeks, Chandler expects farmers to have a better idea of how the county's cotton crop will look. Now, farmers are planting or just beginning to see their cotton break through the ground.
Chandler said cotton plants are in danger of being burned by blowing dirt in the strong winds until they're 8 inches tall. The crust on top of the soil and fine sand cause the problem.
To protect the young plants, Chandler plows his cotton fields to bring up wet soil to cover the loose dirt and keep it from blowing. Every time a farmer irrigates, he said, the water forms a crust and the farmer has to plow again.
When cotton reaches the 8-inch mark two or three weeks after coming up, Chandler said, wind is no longer a concern, although the possibility of hail is.
