The term "Reverend" should be used loosely. Talk show host Larry Elder has a really good compendium of the "Reverend" Sharpton's hypocrisy, racism, anti-semitism and criminal convictions. For this guy to be leading the charge on crushing Don Imus for a really dumb joke in poor taste just floors me. Granted, Imus said something stupid, but holy cow, Al...you've said and done some really stupid stuff yourself. Just read Mr. Elder's page.

Excellent Fred Thompson Article
Posted over at Redstate.com He talks about President Ahmadinejad of Iran and his successful piracy, kidnapping, blackmail, extortion and humiliation of Great Britain. Somehow the Brit's think they achieved a victory by getting their folks back from the pirates without the use of force. That's all well and good that no one was hurt in the process, but who is paying the penalty for the crime?

Shmuley on 'Hotel Rwanda'
Bill Clinton's infamy with regards to Rwanda will tarnish his presidency forever
This is an amazingly gut-wrenching article written by Rabbi Shmuley Boteach. It's a painful read. I have yet to see the movie "Hotel Rwanda" but I do intend to do so. While a movie cannot supplant acurrate historical information, I think I can get the gist of the horror. I can recall my bewilderment at the governments' lack of intervention during the genocide. I had the same bewilderment as U.S. troops landed on the shores of Haiti under the halogen camera lights of CNN and the other alphabet soup networks. I could not understand why we were having live television coverage of an humanitarian mission that looked like an oddly orchestrated invasion. These are the scenarios that occur when politicians who "loathe the military" get involved with commanding those same forces. Interestingly enough, Clinton deployed the armed forces more often than any other U.S. President. Not bad for a guy who loathed them!

General: U.S. captures car bomb ringleaders
Good news from Iraq that would be even better had the perpetrators of the car bombings been dispatched in their apprehension. Strange how a significant story like this is buried under headlines like "Autopsy: Anna Nicole Smith Overdosed", or "Scars From Iraq",
The car bombers had killed 265 Iraqi's and wounded 650 others since early February and here we are talking about a sad pop-culture icon and how war leaves scars on soldiers (no kidding!).
How three U.S. troops share the visible and invisible wounds of war and how it changed their lives and impacted their loved ones.

Change is Good
Something new for the eyes to taste. I've had the same look for quite some time so I thought I would change it up a bit. Hope you like it.

Inspirational Quotes on Winning Wars
This couldn't be said in a better way. The batttle we are fighting is that of our very existense. The Islamo-fascists want to see the destruction of all that is western. The Great Satan. Got to love that "religion of peace" mumbo jumbo!
I gleened this quote off of the Victory Caucus website. It is a must read for those of you tired of the MSM blather. It has a nifty quote generator in the sidebar with some very inspiring words of wisdom.
This Kennedy quote is nearly as good as the Churchill. Not quite, but nearly. I do think the mention of commitment to others is something that has been forgotten in just a few short years.
Short and sweet but oh, so true from the man who ended the cold war by defeating the Soviet Union. There certainly isn't anything to argue with in this stark truth.
Last but not least....

You ask, What is our aim? I can answer with one word: Victory - victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory however long and hard the road may be; for without victory there is no survival."
-- Sir Winston Churchill

"We stand for freedom. That is our conviction for ourselves; that is our only commitment to others."
-- John F. Kennedy

"We win, they lose."
-- Ronald Reagan
Last but not least....
"Once we have a war there is only one thing to do. It must be won. For defeat brings worse things than any that can ever happen in war."
-- Ernest Hemmingway

Taget Stores Catering to Religious Belief's of Muslims
Some Target Stores Change Duties for Muslim Cashiers Who Object to Ringing Up Pork
AP, via FOX News, USA
Mar. 17, 2007
One quote from the above linked article says, "Islam teaches that eating pork is forbidden, and some Muslims feel selling or handling pork is also forbidden because it would make them complicit in the sins of others."
Fortunately a Target spokeswoman said the situation was a local problem only. Boy am I glad she's omniscient!
“It is not an issue in most of our stores in the Twin Cities,” she said in separate comments via e-mail. “There is also no indication that this is an issue in the Minnesota market overall or nationwide.”
I object to working on Sunday because it interferes with the practicing of my faith. I can only attend church services four months out of the year because my job requires me to work on Sunday's. However, if I told my superiors that I was no longer willing to work Sundays because I can't go to church, I wouldn't have to worry about working Sunday or any other day of the week, for that matter. Why do the muslims get their tushs' kissed? Is Target afraid of being targeted by radicals? Why would they believe that the problem is "local" and only ocurring in Minneapolis? Are there no muslims in any other part of the country? Why am I asking so many questions?

Micromanaging the War in Iraq
From the infinite wisdom of elected officials (read: clueless idiots) comes the House Emergency Supplemental Bill. This is essentially an attempt at manipulating the authority that the President has to be the Commander-in-Chief. Here's a link to the Victory Caucus page that has excerpted text from the bill. It's truly mind-boggling. The same Viet Nam era war protesters who complained about how the war was mismanaged now hold elected offices and are battling to have their chance to mismanage a war. Let the President prosecute the war.

Stumbled Across PodBean.com
I seem to be doing alot of stumbling lately. Whether it's in life or on the job or even, yes, on the web. I've most recently stumbled across PodBean.com while trying to find a way to post audio to my blog. Unfortunately you can't. Previously we were able to do an audio post on Blogger with a phone call, kind of nifty. No mas (that's "no more" for those of you not living in Mexifornia). So here's a site that allows you to podcast for free. Anyway, this is my PodBean page. After you read the post you have to clink the link in the right hand column to hear the song. I was a newbie and didn't find out about that until after I entered my text!! Maybe my buddy Joe will get sucked into the podcasting vortex as well. I would actually love to listen to his rants more than I would read them. He has such a quiet and demure way of getting his point across (luv ya Joe!)
