John Bolten and the Dems

Posted by BPeters on Monday, December 04, 2006 11:28:05 AM
I heard the 'breaking news' this morning in my first cup of coffee (and screw you coffee nazis and everything else I like nazis who say this and that are bad for you - I know what's bad for me and don't need your nose in my home!!)  Got that off my chest.  I was peeved to put it politely upon hearing that Amb. John Bolten submitted his resignation.  He's been the one 'politician' that has done the will of the American People and not the will of the D.C. politicians.  If the American people had a say so and not the treacherous DNC politicians, Bolten would be get a permanent appointment to the U(seless) N(otion).  The UN is an unfortunate byproduct of the political arena so we need a strong person in there.  But the Democrats will no doubt, stick in some yellow bellied, spineless, traitor as the U.S. rep.  Someone that will cater to the likes of Kim Jong Il, Ahmadinejad, and even Bin Laden types.  The Democrats which are really Leftist Socialist, will sell this country in a heartbeat for money, just see Bill Clinton's history about that.

Eye on the Sunday news

Posted by BPeters on Sunday, December 03, 2006 11:34:17 PM
Just read with much happiness and glee that the Navy is not going to commission it's newest helicopter assault vessel (it's like a small aircraft carrier) in San Franfreako, Frisco.  I'm so happy that San Francisco's anti-U.S. Military city government's big mouths have got them the recognition they deserve.  The trend needs to continue, no military conferences, no military spending, and if China wants to land an invasion force on U.S. soil, San Fran is open arms for them.  But once they get outside the city limits....they're dead meat.  San Fran's citizens have a choice to make on their politicians and patriotic outlook.  Gweneth Paltrow said the British are more intelligent in their conversations than Americans...well duh....  With a steady diet of Hollywood and California lifestyle, it is no wonder our language and culture has dumbed down so much.  Okay dear reader, here's a biggie observation that needs to start getting around.  Remember that song 'Valley Girl' by Frank Zappa and his daughter Moon Unit....'one small step for man, one giant leap...' sorry couldn't help myself there, but the linguistic inflections, the accent of the Valley Girls...is the very same sort of 'accent' most American women between the ages of 14 - 34 speak today.  Their word inflections rise and fall when they shouldn't, and most sentences end as if they were a question.  Just listen to the radio, tv, and on the streets, and you'll say to yourself "oh my gaawwdd' they do talk that way.  The Middle East is sure a mess, still.  Saudi Arabia is going to back up their religious brethren in Iraq who are being outgunned by the Iranian backed Iraqi Shites.  I said in an earlier blog it's not a civil war yet.  There still is a functioning government, but once that disappears, which I think may happen soon, then there will be an all out civil and eventually regional war.  Get our forces out of there NOW!!  Bring our troops and equipment out of there now before they fall into the hands of the terrorist and/or worse, the Iranian Revolutionary Guard.  The IRG would love to have some American military males to tortune and American military women to beat and rape repeatedly....don't think that wouldn't happen?  They think with the same rational as that Palestinian grandmother did last week that blew herself up as a suicide bomber.  Remember what happened to our contractors in Ramadi?  Move up to the Kurdish area, build that base there, support the Kurdish people for their safety and autonomy.  There is a huge bloodbath coming, one I talked about in a previous posting, a feud that goes back centuries.  Litvinenko might be a Islamo Fascist?  Wow, there's a possibility according to WND.  Told my better half that it reminded me of James Bond - Goldeneye storyline.  Rogue Russians out to use WMD's on the innocent.  Hmmm.  Seen Chavez got the first shipment of MIG-30 fighter jets this week.  Nothing like an arms race to make defense contractors happy.  One Cold War over, another one begins.  I truely believe assasinations of Heads of State need to be an option for the U.S. again, it's a ridiculous rule that is civilized in it's inception, but not practical in even today's 2006 World where over half the World is still on a mindset of a thousand years ago.  Constitution Party going to gear up for 2008...I think that's great myself.  American politics needs to be back to the people, not the few priviledge rich that pander to middle America only out of necessity.  I see it every day I work so don't try to argue that's not the case.  If our politicians did listen to the American people, a U.S. Marine on leave would be alive today planning his wedding with his fiance', instead, an illegal alien, intoxicated, killed them with an automobile.  Save Our Military from our politicians!!!

First of the Last

Posted by BPeters on Friday, December 01, 2006 8:38:09 AM
Simply put, it's December 1st.  Oh geez, thought it was going to be something grand and witty?!  It's almost the end of the year, end of 2006.  Think about it, 2006, not 1896 or even 1996 (at which point I was seriously considering throwing out a 16 year military career due to the Clintion's medling into the Military (S.O.M.).  But here we are, end of 2006 and what has been accomplished by your politicians this year?  Crickets are chirping, Jeopardy song is playing....yeah, me too, I can't think of a thing our politicians have done for us people, I"m mean really done for us.  They've all been real good at supplying Talk Radio with meaningless fodder.  They've pointed fingers at each other.  But what real meat and potatos issue(s) have they solved???  State Governments have done rather well taking care of their problems.  Private business has done well enough to ensure our economy is cruising along (no Enron, WorldCom issue wiping out entire companies and people's lives).  Seems the more that the Federal Government is out of our lives (and the Military's) the better everyone is.  Something to start thinking about for the 2008 election - will your candidate reduce the scope and size of the Federal Government or do you want Socialism to take over all things in your life?   The more government assume's control of your life, the more it becomes a Socialist Nation.  What's going on in the wonderful world of that peaceful tolerant religion - Shinto Buddism, all must be well haven't heard a peep.  How about that other religion - psuedo form of governing people's lives - Islam.  Huge demonstrations in Lebanon by Hezbollah, so far peaceful, but what's happening with their militant milita?  Rearming some more no doubt under the noses of the French.  Texas....I heard of a huge Mosque being built in Texas.....nice place to smuggle nukes and terrorist to from Mexico.  Who else lives in Texas that Islam would love to just make a martyers target??? Hmmmm.  No wonder Islam is building and spending so much there?  Coming soon - why Islam and America are not compatible.  A hint:  the NFL.

Crystal ball says

Posted by BPeters on Wednesday, November 29, 2006 10:58:04 PM
Peering into the glass crystal globe of the earth that sites upon my desk I see...dust.  World sure is in a troubled state as we head to a close of 2006.  Iraq is on the brink of a civil war, more like a secretarian-religious war.  Ahmadinejad sent a long letter to us, America, that I haven't read yet, but only can say to him, "if you truely want peace between our people, stop the anti-Israeli rhetoric, stop supporting Hezbollah, turn over any Al Queda that are in Iran, stop the uranium enrichment and allow UN inspectors in."   Until that happens, all the sweet sugary words won't mean a damn and show us and the World, you and Hitler are on the same course path of history.  Our own Government let a memo slip out again....someone had better being going to hard time jail soon for that!!!  But, with both the RNC and DNC running our government, I'm having fewer doubts any real justice in D.C. will ever happen.  Women have sex with teenage males and go to jail for years, Ted Kennedy is still a Senator...go figure.  Manslaughter only counts if you're poor.  Jeb Bush, I think he is very good and voted for him, but from everything I've heard and read about Miami prior to Tancredo's observation and remarks, it is going Third World.  There again, is more fuel for my own theory of Third World USA.  Our middle class is disappearing, one in every thirty two American adults are either in jail, on probation, or has a 'criminal' record.  I read a story about Miami very recently, I think it was in Time magazine, and many life long and long time residents see the same thing Tom Tancredo saw.  I teacher said once he retires from thirty years of teaching in Miami, he's moving to North Carolina to get away from all the congestion, high insurance rates, cost of living, crime.  Everything I read about that article I can apply to the city in which I reside, in Florida.  There is a house behind mine, the lady rents it out.  Some time after Ivan, a bunch of Mexicans moved in, all males, about 6 - 8 of them.  Then the illegal immigration debate swung into the media and one day, that house was empty and abandoned.  That was what six months ago, last night I saw lights in there for the first time.  This whole town seemed to have an instant evacuation of Mexicans and OTM's in one week that was like the Oklahoma land rush.   Immigration is killing the country that the Fore Fathers to our Greatest Generation fought, bled, and died to build.  Insurance is a vampire sucking the life blood out of the baby boomers.  Rap is a cancer that has infected the Gen Xers and Gen Yers too, making them oblivious to real world threats and reality, not the TV kind, but real life.  I'm in a pecemissitic mood tonight I guess.  Putin will not let go of power when the time comes, just watch the Soviet 'Union' begin to rise again.  China, the PRC one, is polluting the World in one day worse than any SUV loving city here in the US could over ten years.  That pollution if not put in check by the PRC and World pressure will have some consequences beyond most people's every day thinking.  If the Chinese are unable to breath their air, grow food on their land....guess what....they'll move to a place where they can.  Maybe that's why the huge military build up is happening???  History has prove time and time again, any king or country that built up it's military, eventually uses it on it's neighbors.  Mankind is very good about repeating history.   Iraq.....calling it a Civil War will allow the U.S to save face and pull out...think it was a fluke that Sec. Colin Powell made that statement today???  I was listening to Michael Savage this evening while working out (more later on that issue), and he hits good points as does Neal Boortz though I disagree with other views they have, but Michael for all his rants against the establishment made his statement tonight about having all his college degrees and some caller being a high school drop out and that he wasn't threatened (idealogically) at all by that person.  To me though, it showed again, no matter who, money, stature, education, divide the people of this Nation through their own eyes.  There is discrimination, prejudice in America and it comes from everyone.  True story, youngest step daughter at 15, just moved into a new neighborhood, predominantly African American, saw a black girl about her age living across the street, when over to introduce herself and wanted to make friends.  The black girl told my stepdaughter, I can't be your friend, you're white (actually she's Amer-Asian).  That was a huge slap in the face for her and her high school years were brutal with the same type of prejudice coming from the students and faculty.  So Cythnia McKinney....go chew on that you perfect example of how not to be a U.S. Representative of Congress.  I watched The Unit last night, prime example of how our politicians hang our Military out to not dry, but die.  Dems and Repubs did it to them in Vietnam, Carter in Iran, Clinton and Dem's did it in Somalia big time, and Iraq.....both parties again are using the Military for political means, not to wage war and win.  S.O.M. - Save Our Military (from our politicians).  There's a few things to chew on for you dear reader, remember, Islam is always ready to cut your throat in the name of Allah.  Islam - the only religion that gives you choice - join it or die or become a slave or second hand servant to Muslims.  Then which type of Islam is the correct one????  Sunni side or Shite side??? True story: My wife and I went for a walk last night after supper, she by my side, we holding hands as always, we passed another man and wife out for a walk too, he was walking ahead of his wife...by five paces....she was covered head to toe in 'arab' garb.  He said hello, I said hello as we passed.  Big difference between free Christians and free Muslims.  How do you want to walk with the one you love????  You're going to have to make a choice and a stand very soon!!!  This is not like the SLA, Black Panthers, Red Brigade, IRA terrorist problems of the past, this one is world wide and for keeps, winner takes all.

Warning to US Military (SOM) here comes the DNC

Posted by BPeters on Monday, November 27, 2006 11:13:16 PM
While blogging about Carter and the Democrats, I came across a statement from Barney Frank in a Reuters news story.     

Asked about his opposition to the military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy toward gay service men and women, Frank, one of the few openly gay members of the House, said he would fight discrimination but that issue was "not what we're going to begin with."

  The Democrats are not going to begin with the U.S. Military and it's policies, but what he is saying, that the Democrats are going to attack the U.S. Military and again force change that WILL and has been proven with disasterous results via the Clinton's.  The Democrats hate true warriors, the Democrats hate the U.S. Military because it's the one institution in the United States that keeps 'conservatism' as it's base for all of it's decisions concerning personnel and policies for personnel.  Plus it's the U.S. Military that protects the Constitution of the United States that the DNC/Democrats want to erase and install a Socialist Constitution and form of government.  Don't believe me...do the research yourself, look at how during the Clinton years, warriorism was put down at every level, socialist ideals and agendas put forth, look at the people and their influences from the Sixties that governs their ideals, thoughts, and actions.  The U.S. Military can never be defeated by a foreign power, unless the Democrats have their way and change the make up, command, rules of war (which is close to what is happening now in Iraq and why our guys get maimed/killed).   The liberal/socialist that is becoming more and more the make up of the DNC wants nothing more than to destroy our U.S. Military.  It does not matter what they say.  Kerry and Gore went to 'Nam, all very carefully planned and layed out so they wouldn't get into in any real combat.  Charlie Rangel...hard to pin down anything on the 'net about his military service but a blurb that he served from '48 - '52 and went to Korea, finally found this via a socialite column about Rep Rangel's 75th birthday: 

Long before Rangel entered into politics, he was an enlisted soldier in the Army’s 503rd Field Artillery Battalion 2nd infantry Division during the Korean War where he led 40 members of his decimated unit to safety from behind enemy lines in the Battle of Kunu-Ri in what is now North Korea.

This heroic effort won for him a Purple Heart for injuries suffered in the campaign and a Bronze Star for the valor needed to escape near death. 

If this is fact, it's hard to understand why Rep. Rangel wants to draft all American's into a military unless the DNC have an untold plan to use the U.S. Military very extensively at home and abroad for their own personal goals.  While the argument is often true that most Republican leaders have not served in the U.S. Military and the Democrats are 'veterans', it's is often proof that the RNC is that party that supports the U.S. Military.  But again I say, all politicians need to get out of the Military's internal business of it's day to day operations and let the Military be the military and not a social platform for socialism/liberalist experimentation and ultimately, the U.S. Military's destruction.

Carter, Pelosi, Dems, spots

Posted by BPeters on Monday, November 27, 2006 10:15:00 PM
Carter, that guy that was a President of the United States, that guy that was a Naval Officer, once again, betrays all the fallen Americans that have died for nothing.  If the World listens to Carter, they have died for nothing.  Again, Carter, Jimmy boy, says it's Israel's fault for all the conflict with the Palestinians.  Here's a group of basically, refugees from every country in the Middle East, who no country would nor will open up and except the Palestinians with open arms for them to build their own country.  Not a single Arab/Muslim country, but it took the Jewish people, the Israeli people, to give the Palestinians a chance.  But like ungrateful house guest, that instead of going out, working, then buying and building their own house/home, sought to take over the house they were given refuge in.  Carter, you're a fool, plain and simple.  The World played you for a fool, the Soviets in Afghanistan, the Iranians with the hostages, Panama Canal deal, and especially the PLO.  We are witnessing the same evolution of a displaced 'unindigenous, non-historical race' with the Hezbollah in Lebanon.  If the Palestinians really want peace, then they would abandone all arms they have and turn them over to the Israelis, renounce all terrorism, turn over any criminals and recognized terrorist, and except the land they have been so generously given and build their own destiny.  
   Pelosi and Company of Democrats are just salivating for tribunals, trials, against any Republican to begin.  They all already have broken their promise of no investigations they were making prior to the election.  Now out of one side of their mouth comes 'investigations coming', from the other side comes, no new liberal plans but just good governing for the next two years.  So, business as usual in DC, lying politicians, personal power plays, and again, the leopards don't change their spots -ever!!!!

Not a Civil War yet

Posted by BPeters on Monday, November 27, 2006 9:12:39 PM
The mainstream media here in the good ol' USA is using the term civil war to describe the secular killing that is happening in Iraq.  It is not a civil war yet.  Close to it, but not yet.  There is still a viable working Iraqi government that has not yet been abandoned by the Iraqi's themselves.  When that happens, then there will be a civil war when all parties within the boundaries of Iraq draw definitive lines between themselves then begin to slug it out for territory and/or dominance.  When that happens, then I'll believe NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, MSNBC,  that there is a civil war in Iraq.

A Yugo Iraq Argument

Posted by BPeters on Monday, November 27, 2006 8:36:48 AM
I heard briefly an arguement from one of the top Generals (please read S.O.M. entry) that dividing up Iraq would be a mistake.  Seems history, and recent history at that, contradicts the arguement that dividing Iraq into Sunni, Shite, Kurd territories would cause more problems and regional problems.  Let's see, they in the Middle East have been actively fighting and killing each other since time began and will not stop until time does itself.  Yugoslavia was a peaceful prospering country until Tito died and the Soviets went away, then what happened people???!!! The Balkan Wars.  Those wars did not stop until recognized individual countries were established and the old guard of Slavs gave up on trying to keep their dominance.  Iraq, has enough battalions to take over it's own internal security.  But they are all stationed in relatively calm areas of Iraq, so it's been needless and time wasting, life wasting evolution to re-create the Iraqi Army to keep both internal and external security of Iraq.  Internal problems will not go away until some definitive lines are drawn so the three main bodies of religious sects can live in peace with themselves.  They can be semi-autonomous or fully, that's up to them, not us (US).  Give them the choice this week to make a decision on how to proceed for themselves.  That big joint base should be built on the Banshur Airbase in the Kurdish zone, with considerable monetary assistance to the Kurdish Iraqis and much less to the Sunni/Shites because their support will come from Syria/Iran respectively.  If they keep fighting after dividing the old Iraq up, then nothing will stop them until a total victor arises and we need to keep out of that fight.  Dahfur and Ethiopia need our military assistance now!!  Mutlitple bombing runs over the Somalian 'islamo-fascist' militia's as they stage near Ethiopia.

Russia - what's old is new again

Posted by BPeters on Friday, November 24, 2006 8:41:14 PM
With the death of a former KGB agent by a radioactive agent, the sale of the Tor M1 air defense system to Iran, the old Soviet bear is back.  Sometimes a rogue bear will create havoc in an area then just disappear without a trace.  If the bear is a big brown or grizzly bear, it's hard to miss such a large animal but they can come out of nowhere and it's over in a second for the prey.  In the case of Russia, the old Soviet bear got quite wounded and went back into it's own safe lair.  Time has passed and it's wounds have healed and the Soviet bear is back out, charging out from the thick brushes, strikes (Litvinenko) and back in.  It is as well, marking the trees again, (Tor M1) making it known to all that he is back and this is his territory, daring a challenger.  The woods are most dangerous once again.

ThirdWorldUSA One Thread

Posted by BPeters on Thursday, November 23, 2006 10:34:58 AM
In my last posting last night, I wrote - blogged - Hanging by a thread - about how the USA has the capicity of falling into a Balkan style conflagration within our borders.  One major issue I discussed was race.  Today's news on World Net Daily:  Long Beach Teens face hate crimes

Los Angeles County prosecutors today filed hate crimes charges against eight black teenagers accused of beating up three white women on Halloween night in a case that has startled and divided Long Beach.  Authorities said they took the action after concluding that the teens attacked and beat the women in the upscale Bixby Knolls area because they were white.  The case has been the subject of a wrenching public dialogue over the last few weeks in the racially diverse city of 460,000, with civil rights groups like the NAACP condemning the teenagers' alleged actions and the city holding a public forum meant to ease tensions. The attack occurred on a block known for fancy Halloween decorations.  According to police, a mob of mostly girls, ages 12 to 17, allegedly hurled racial insults at the women, threw small pumpkins and lemons at them, and then knocked them to the ground with kicks, punches and swings of a skateboard.

    This is a prime example our Governments, both State and Federal need to tackle now.  This is also a prime reason why the four main contributors of Balkanizing, racism, economics, Islam, illegal immigration, must be addressed and acted upon now. 
    One hundred thirty three civilians killed in Iraq today,  TODAY, it was just reported on CNN radio.  Refer to Clash of Empires.
    Pelosi, Clinton and Company, Big Business, and the Republicans had all better get their uncollective heads out of where ever they're stuck and being to work together asap before it's too late to stop the avalanche that's about to happen.

USA Hanging by a thread

Posted by BPeters on Wednesday, November 22, 2006 10:24:37 PM
I was watching Jerico tonight and during the adverstisement, I channel scanned (I am a guy) and caught O'Rielly.  He was doing a segment about teens and young adults, primarily YBM's, young black males, beating people up and showing it on the internet and selling videos of it.  What caught my attention besides the brutality of it, was that many of the attacked, were not African American.  We watch the nightly news and Iraq is the dominating topic, the daily senseless carnage that is taking so many innocent lives.  Almost a hundred a day it seems we're told.  We sit in our comfort and often turn the channel or ignore the news altogether.  It's happening way over there, why should we worry.  Not long ago a stable nation existed.  Then a dramtic change came and a primary source of stability was gone and chaos followed for years.  This was Yugoslavia which chapter in recent history was called the Balkan Wars.  Ancient feuds arose anew, and thousands of innocent people suddenly found themselves victims of senseless death and destruction.  Iraq is facing this same paradigm today.  The United States could be facing this same paradigm within the next ten to twenty years.  The embers of ancient hate still burns, racism, religious difference, ideology, ancestrial boundaries.  All four of those could easily cause this country to cascade into a Balkanized conflict which no other Nation would attempt to stop.  Remember the Rodney King verdict, just the flicker of that match lit fires that burned Los Angeles and spread to San Francisco, Las Vegas, Seattle, New York, Atlanta, Tampa, Pittsburg, Madison, Dallas, Omaha and even Toronto, Canada.  Rascism from all walks of life, all colors, is still present and an enormous issue.  The illegal immigration issue and it's implications are enormous.  The growing Muslim communities and it's forced changes upon historical America are enormous.  Growing disparity of rich and poor and less of a middle class is enormous.  Lack of a trustworthy Federal Government is enormous.  Does this sound pessimissitic or prophetic?  Prevention is the key to preventing forest fires. Sometimes that means cutting down protected trees to build an effective fire lane.  Sometimes that means private property has to be rebuilt with fire suppression systems and/or hydrants. Sometimes that means closing Parks to the public, while is may inconvience a few and distrupt lives of others, for the greater good these are done.   Unless some very pro-active prevention is done soon, the U.S. is going to experience a fire that will burn across the entire nation.  Like I said, in about 10 to 20 years from now.  In my daily job dear reader, I seen new born babies and I wonder what future they may have.  I wish I had the confidence of knowledge that their world they grow up would be a good simple life like Mayberry RFD, not one of Mad Max.  We sit today at a crossroad as a Nation.  How we proceed is up to you.  I try to do my part of giving you, dear reader, food for thought, discussion, and hopefully of reasonable action.  An argument against the pessimism of this entry is that America has the greatest economy ever, highest unemployment, strongest military.  I bet this how the Romans in Rome felt and thought as well during the height of it's Empire.  No American car was found to the safest in that report released this week.  Today, the Commandant of the Marine Corps stated the Corps is stretched and showing signs of wear.  O.J. flaunts a judicial system that in itself, is unable to bring a killer to justice even though the evidence is overwhelming.  Insurance companies are strangling the American people with bloated cost of 'projections' while an impotent Government is unable or unwillling to stop them.  Is there no wonder why the public distrust politicians so much today?  The mainstream media is daily being seen by the general public as nothing but political tools and not objective organizations of truth.    We sit at a crossroad.

Class of Empires in Middle East

Posted by BPeters on Wednesday, November 22, 2006 9:26:45 PM
Seems that old rivalaries are brewing again.  Some so old that one had preceeded the other by centuries, but none the less, a fire of empire still burns.  Empires of Assyria and Achaemenid, both of which had stratled each others present day borders.  But who today, will sit upon the throne and who will pay tribute to that throne tomorrow?  I feel for the people of Lebanon, caught in a cross fire of ancient empires still battlling for existence and domination today.  But the ghost of those former empires will not rest, they will not stop at their continuing march towards becoming the absolute ruler of the Middle East.  It must nag them greatly though, that the Arabian penisula was unable to be brought under either of their control and today, having a now very wealthy and powerful Saudi Arabian presence that will continue to thwart any plan of total regional domination.  Today, the poor Lebanese must endure and be the front of their war, while Iraq becomes a quasi front between them.  Each supporting their traditional religious sects covertly, while overtly supporting a mercenary militia called Hezbollah to fight another historical enemy, Israel, and a new country called America.   But only one of those countries will be able to call all the shots, do all the directing in the end.  All the while, the people of Lebanon, Iraq, and Israel suffer an ancient war that has yet to be fought to a conclusion.  All from greed, all from lust of power, and in the end, it will have been all for nothing.  So, Syria or Iran, Assyria or Achamenid, next week we may have an answer to that.

Testing, Breast Feeding, Kramer

Posted by BPeters on Wednesday, November 22, 2006 8:36:29 AM
From a bird's eye view, it seems more apparent that from media reports, Islam is testing the airport security and people's reaction.  Having these so-called 'muslim scholars' being detained for just practicing their religion.  Give me a break.  Their deliberate actions justified the airlines and passenger reactions.  Everything was scripted by Islamo-fascist to test our resolve.  More and more it becomes apparent as well, Islam and America are not suited to co-exist, despite what intentions our Fore Fathers had.  More to follow.
   A women was breasting her baby, under my old banner, in a Common Sense World, she should've been told to please be more discreet or offered an airline blanket.  If no passenger objected, what's the hub-bud?
   Kramer - .  Again, a bad incident gets blown all out of control by the mainstream media, too include Fox.  Lebanon is about to split into civil war and our media is focused on Michael Richards.  How stupid our society is.  No wonder radical islam keeps trying to take us down.  I believe Richards tried to make a joke but it went horribly wrong and he did lose his cool.  Apology accepted Mike, I didn't see or hear what the heckler said/did.  Again, we get a one sided story.

S.O.S. - S.O.M. Save Our Military

Posted by BPeters on Sunday, November 19, 2006 9:08:36 PM
  Rep. Charles Rangel wants to institute a draft.  Again, the Democrats show how out of touch with reality they are.  While playing the 'class' card, Rangel is saying the rich kids (read Republican kids only) are avoiding military service.  Some one might want to tell Rep. Rangel that Americans reaching their 18th birthday must register with the Selective Service in case we need to institute a draft.  Oh wow Chuck, there's a program already in place and running to address the draft issue - in case we need it.  What the military does need IS for all politicians to keep their fracking fingers, noses, pens, and everything else out of the military's business and let the military fight wars the way a war is to be fought.  We wouldn't be in Iraq now if that would've happened back in 1991.  President Bush wouldn't be acting so humbly in Communist Vietnam if our troops were allowed to cross a fracking border that harbered a safe haven of our enemy.  We wouldn't be cowering to a growing Chinese miltary power if MacAuther would have been listened to in 1952.  The Cold War wouldn't have happened if Gen. Patton was listened to back in 1946.  But no.....politicians had to stick their noses into war business and cause and effect has been DISATEROUS every time.  President Carter, President Clinton both hold responsibility for disasterous military operations and the political and terrorist situations we face today.  It has never been the cause and effect of the U.S. Military to put the U.S. and World freedom into chaos and danger.  But it's ALWAYS the U.S. Military that fixes the politicians problems.  The more politicans gets involved with the military, the more problems arise.  Our troops scream and have screamed every conflict for our politicians to fund the proper equipment, but Military lives are always lost while the politicians go to garden parties and stick their faces in the media cameras pointing fingers at each other.  Nothing is ever fixed.  Nothing is ever thought out, planned, or executed to change that disasterous pattern.  Our military has never been in peril of an enemy, but it's always put in peril by our politicians.  As for redeploying to 'Okinawa'....does anyone in D.C. have a clue what's going on there???  No they dont't, because besides being clueless, they're morons, especially Murtha.  Rangel is not far behind, Pelosi...OMG, let's not even go there...and Hillary.....who wants everyone in uniform in a blue helmut, digging ditches for the Peace Corps, and no aggressive males are allowed, all nations will be given our nuclear, stealth, armor secrets so we'll all be the same.  China got MIRV technology from Bill Clinton, just wait to see what Hillary would give them!!  Our military, your military, you, the average American Citizen, needs protection not from the enemy for our military can do that themselves, but protection from our politicians.

Blurring of lines and vision

Posted by BPeters on Sunday, November 19, 2006 9:44:22 AM
If there's one thing I know is blurred vision, had it since about age 10.  Watching the morning Fox & Friends show, a story came up about the new SecDef  Robert Gates and it struck me a bit funny that the top job of the CIA belongs to a Military man, and the top job of the military (Defense Department) will be a CIA man.  Hmmmm.  Then I started thinking about the CBS show 'The Unit' which both I and very surprisingly - my wife, enjoy watching very much.  But the premise of the show which is loosely about a psuedo-Delta Unit outfit, makes me wonder, why if Delta does such missions, why.  The types of missions they (The Unit) go on are primarily 'spy ops' that should be covered and done by the CIA.  Seems a waste of time, training, money to spend on a person for a military career and using them as 'spooks'.  Back in the real world, we must be having some real big problems in D.C. if the same old crowd (down south it's called the good ol' boys) keep recycling through the leadership positions.  Siderbar:  good reason to have term limits on career politicians since they quit serving the people and being serving themselves.  Having so few people keep revolving through the doors of D.C. brings not new ideas, but stagnation.  But arguably, having good people with knowledge, experience, and initiative are good to keep around.  Seems the powers that be in D.C. need to look at long term leadership and goals for the entire working branches of the Federal Government to eliminate stagnation and redundancy.
