State of the Union Address - 2006 Live
January 31, 2006 | Leave a Comment
This is the first live blog I have attempted. It may be a little disjointed but worth the attempt. A few quotes I was able to gather as it went on. All other material is a summary of the content.
Watching the Address using both Fox News and CNN. I have a feeling that the […]

Endorsing John Willamowski - 3rd District Appeals Court
January 31, 2006 | Leave a Comment
The primary race for the 3rd District Court of Appeals is coming up. Court races don’t garner much attention in the media unless a press conference is called. So I want to throw my endorsement in for State Rep. John Willamowski who I am proud to call a friend.
Willamowski is a life long Republican […]

Living with someone else’s face
January 31, 2006 | Leave a Comment
You might think that the title implies a two faced person. But what does one do when they don’t have their own face. Simple. Have surgeons take a face from someone else and attach to you.
Just last month the lady who underwent the very first face surgery nearly rejected it. However, a healthy dose […]

Gay Blogger Extorts Black Bigots?
January 31, 2006 | Leave a Comment
(HT Expose the Left) If you are against being homosexual you are homophobic. If you are homosexual but in the ‘closet’ then others tread the perilous passage as pioneers for those not brave enough.
The frontier has been well settled and it appears that now is the time to force out the hidden homosexuals. You might […]

Cindy Sheehan Beds Hugo Chavez
January 30, 2006 | 3 Comments
Leftist President Hugo Chavez warmly embraces fellow leftist Cindy Sheehan on a goodwill tour. Representing her fellow liberals back in America she sent their greetings with a little lip-lock to show their appreciation for a real president.
This love affair is simply a bedding down with the ‘compassionate’ President who is only accused of electoral fraud, […]

Army Reserves Cut - Sends money elsewhere
January 30, 2006 | Leave a Comment
(HT The Officer’s Club) Two headlines from the Washington Post just seem odd.
Budget to Call for Cuts In Military Reserves
Pentagon Can Now Fund Foreign Militaries
According to the new budget it appears that Army Reserve numbers would drop.
Under the plan, the authorized troop strength of the Army Reserve would drop from 205,000 — the current […]

Border Patrol Too Tight - Illegals forced to stay
January 29, 2006 | Leave a Comment
Leave it to the FresnoBee.com to come up with the border patrol making it too risky for illegals to return to Mexico. The hardships must be tremendous.
Proposed border security measures would eventually make the trip even more difficult.
What amazes me more than the headline is the total disregard for the obvious. It isn’t that […]

Groups are pushing for tighter control the guns which get into the hands of law abiding citizens in San Fransisco and Toronto. In South Africa a group claiming 300,000 members is looking to get more guns in the hands of the good guys so they can protect themselves.
South Africa’s ‘Safety and Security‘ Ministry collected […]

Just Your Local Charity Group - Hamas
January 28, 2006 | Leave a Comment
(HT Drudge Report) With too many churches supporting the Palestinian movement while ignoring the Palestinian Muslims who persecute Palestinian Christians.
While some flirt with such mid-east groups and say that such groups are misunderstood it is clear what they really are. Imagine this group walking down your street. If you were a Christian what kind […]

Speech Tax on conservative politician
January 28, 2006 | Leave a Comment
The European Union which is still without a ratified Constitution has endorsed cracking down on ‘homophobia’. The resolution passed with a substantial margin of 468-149 and only 41 abstentions.
The resolution, called “Homophobia in Europe,” defines homophobia as “an irrational fear and aversion of homosexuality and of lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans-gender people based on prejudice, […]

Canadian Liberals Finding Times Tough
January 27, 2006 | Leave a Comment
After 12 years it must be a difficult thing to wake up to a Conservative Prime Minister and their celebrations. Something they will not suffer quietly.
The centrist Liberals — who took power in late 1993 — campaigned on their fiscal record, reminding people the economy was booming and trying to portray Harper as an extremist […]

Taft - New Goals for New Taxes
January 27, 2006 | Leave a Comment
Big Goals for the outgoing Taft. His lofty goals for ‘improving education’ are probably his last gasps of leaving a legacy. But in reality his efforts only reinforce his current legacy and don’t remake it.
The governor may have written a check he cannot cash and offered a plan that could bar thousands from the […]

Columbia - 20 Years Later
January 27, 2006 | Leave a Comment
What a horrifying sight it was. Those plumes of smoke trailing off in several directions where a single trail should have headed toward space.
It was a moment we will never forget. We all hope that there would be survivors and that the nightmare would turn into a miracle. But the cruel reality hit and […]

WMD’s Existed - The smoking gun!
January 26, 2006 | 2 Comments
I can only now hear Kerry saying, “I was for the war before I was against it before I supported military action from the very beginning.”
On Hannity & Colmes Gen. Georges Sada, a person who would know, told that there were WMD’s. He also detailed out how they were ferreted out of the country to […]

From Priest abuse to Hooters
January 26, 2006 | 1 Comment
The Catholic church is under fire, and rightly so, for the sex abuse scandal’s and their cover-up. One would wonder why no one sent out a memo to their ‘clergy’ reminding them to avoid doing ’stupid things’.
The head priest priest of (get this) Great Waco, Texas plans to bless the new Hooters restaurant in […]

Eminent Domain - Bulldoze the church
January 26, 2006 | Leave a Comment
In Sand Springs, Oklahoma bulldozers are working up to the doorway doing road work. Yet if the city has its way the area will be seized and made into something good for the public sector right?
Well, one would think that public seizure of private property for the good of the community means anything goes after […]

The New Diversity - Ban Christians
January 25, 2006 | Leave a Comment
The new diversity isn’t tolerance of the old kind but an entirely different breed. New tolerance not only includes acceptance but the endorsement and praise of contrary positions. However, this position doesn’t go both ways.
A UNIVERSITY Christian Union has been suspended and had its bank account frozen after refusing to open its membership to […]
