“Bold Move” or “No Other Choice”?

“Bold Move” or “No Other Choice”?

My initial reaction upon hearing that Osama bin Laden had been killed was one of shock coupled with a pleasant relief that we finally got the bastard. The ensuing days were flooded with fanfare from media, much of it lauding Obama for his bold, risky, “take command” approach to the situation. Initially I tended to [...] Read more »

Reaction To Qur’an Burning Should Tell Us Much

Reaction To Qur’an Burning Should Tell Us Much

The reaction to the burning of the Qur’an by Rev. Terry Jones of Dove Outreach Center in Gainesville, Florida should be very revealing to those apologists who constantly try to deny that there is a radical element in the muslim world that is a “problem”. And that radical element is not small enough to poo-poo [...] Read more »

Kinetic Military Action

Kinetic Military Action

Wow. Word parsing at a totally new level. Over the last few decades, our nation (and indeed the world) has seen an effort to soften the blows of words and titles, names, etc., in order to try to make things seem not as they are, or, to at least try to make some terms or [...] Read more »

My Own Conspiracy Theory

My Own Conspiracy Theory

I’m usually not very big on conspiracy theories. More often than not, I find them laced with a little bit of craziness. But I want to present a conspiracy theory that I have not heard represented in the mainstream media, and I’m beginning to wonder why. As we watch much of the Middle East unravel, [...] Read more »

Egypt is not East Germany

Egypt is not East Germany

What an amazing day. Of all the possible outcomes which could reasonably be expected today, the Egyptian people have effectively spun the carnival prize wheel and received great fortune of it stopping on “freedom”, without excessive violence. While I share the excitement of the Egyptians and the world with regards to the lofty possibilities and [...] Read more »

Why Would Obama Cheer Egyptians, Snub Iranians?

Why Would Obama Cheer Egyptians, Snub Iranians?

Today the situation in Egypt only became more confusing and complicated. In a speech which had many moments of incredulous, mindbendingly arcane and narcissistic moments, Egypt’s Pres. Hosni Mubarak spent proximally 14 min. explaining nearly nothing clearly enough to satisfy anyone. In what was expected to be a speech outlining his resignation or departure from [...] Read more »

Time To Cut Spending on Dictators

Time To Cut Spending on Dictators

Call me naïve, but I honestly did not know that my nation, my country, was spending billions of dollars to support dictatorial regimes which oppressed and brutalized their people. While I may attract some scorn and rebuke for what I’m about to say, I don’t care. It’s no wonder that there are elements of the [...] Read more »

Obama IS for Big Business???

Obama IS for Big Business???

I find the irony of what I am seeing and hearing from Barry’s trip abroad just flat out stunning. I can’t believe the left can get away with this kind of duplicitous logic without the press and others on their side seeing the hypocrisy of their positions. On this current trip abroad, Barack Obama has [...] Read more »

karzai Afghan President Hamid Karzai stated during a visit of US Congressmen that President Obama’s announced withdrawal, to begin next July, has given “the enemy a morale boost”. Karzai stated that while the Afghan’s still have much work to do, so too does the US, primarily in eliminating terrorist refuges of the Taliban and Al [...] Read more »

Obama Invited to Apologize?

Obama Invited to Apologize?

Having seen his propensity to kowtow at every opportunity, five Nobel prize winning laureates have invited Barry in a written and signed letter to come to the 11th World Summit of Nobel Peace Laureates in Hiroshima. The letter, signed by former Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev, Lech Walesa (Poland), South African President Frederik Willem De Klerk, [...] Read more »
