The Underwear Bomber made a point of saying he wasn't alone and that there were more terrorists on the way. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has been blathering about Feb. 11th being an important target date for an attack. Either one should make a person pretty nervous.
Then we have Leon Pinetta and others in the political realm saying that another attack was all but guaranteed within the next three to six months. That should give us all a warm, fuzzy feeling.
An expert in nuclear technology was interviewed on FNC a few days ago and said that a nuclear device would have to be too big for an Iranian rocket to do any damage. That might sound comforting if there hadn't been so much mention of the potential damages that a "dirty bomb" could cause. A "dirty bomb" the size of a brief case...
Disruption of our satellites and electric grids wouldn't entail a nuclear device, just some very talented hackers. Our computer driven society would be lost if the plug was pulled.
After the remarkable "success" of the 9/11 attack, there hasn't been another of that magnitude. Does that mean they forgot how clever they could be? Or that the mass murderers have suddenly become incompetent? Or could the Underwear Bomber and the Shoe Bomber simply be decoys to convince us that the next big attack will come the same way as 9/11? We have (either through improved security measures or dumb luck) avoided mass casualties... so far.
Does the Panderer-in-Chief really believe that making nice with terrorists will hold them back? Could even he be that stupid?
I don't have any special knowledge or a crystal ball, folks. But the possibilities are there for another attack and I really don't think it will be the type we expect. Surprise is their best hope for success. It worked so well before...
B.O. (B.S.) got to enjoy face time again last night. His endless speech was boring enough to keep even Biden yawning. And why should yawning come with the repetitive droning? Sort of like peanut butter and jelly, they go so well together.
Every time he blathered on about listing all the earmarks on the internet before any voting, I yawned. Blaming President Bush seems to be his favorite old stand-by when it comes to rhetorical garbage. Glossing over national security was no surprise, of course, since it is nothing close to a priority with him. In short, the speech was a crock. He did manage to squeeze in his favorite word more than 100 times... that word is "I".
As usual, he whined about Republicans being the party of "NO!" Let's think about that for a minute, shall we, folks?
"Hey, let's kill a few million babies and force everyone to pay for it!"
"No."
"Let's throw another few trillion dollars down the rat hole!"
"No."
"Let's give terrorists all the rights of citizens and protect them!"
"No."
"Let's just open the borders and welcome more illegals so they can vote for Democrats!"
"No."
"Let's break all those stupid promises that got us elected!"
"No."
"Let's create the biggest bureaucracy in the universe, charge a fortune for poor quality medical care, and socialize everything!"
"No."
That's about the size of it, folks. Being the party of "NO!" isn't such a bad thing when you consider the consequences of being a "Yes man" to the destruction of everything good. He managed again to squeeze in the lie about there being no viable alternatives to his "healthcare reform" trash.
How many gullible turkeys will actually be fooled by the repeated promises of "transparency" and "integrity" when they must have already seen that B.O. (B.S.) doesn't understand the concepts.
After a disastrous first year in office, the best we can hope for is a rerun of the same lies we have already heard? Hash is good, but re-hashed lies are still lies, they just stick out a little more with each cooking.
The Amish have the right idea. Their deeply held beliefs enable them to refuse to do the things that they consider wrong. They don't have to pay into Social Security. They will be exempt from the obscene health-care debacle. They cannot be forced to do anything they believe to be wrong.
Well, I'm not Amish, but the same laws should apply to me (and to anyone else) about not being forced to do anything against one's conscience. Sounds like the makings of a class action lawsuit, doesn't it? As much as I dislike the idea of giving any business to lawyers, this might not be a bad idea...
I have deeply held beliefs that should exempt me from acting against my conscience. Nobody should be able to force me to participate in anything that allows the murder of children for the sake of convenience. It should be illegal for the government to demand that I pay higher taxes to support anything that I didn't vote for and approve of in the first place. The government has no right to compel a citizen to purchase any service or product. The government is not allowed to force anyone to participate in a religion or forbid the free practice of a religion (and believe me, Glo-bull warming/cooling/climate change/whatever does have all the earmarks of a modern religious cult), while Christianity is under attack by devotees of the left.
In short, my right to refuse to participate should be as protected as any other conscientious objector. On what grounds, you may ask? Am I Amish? No. I AM AN AMERICAN! I have deeply held beliefs in the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the rule of law.
My heart goes out to the people of Haiti. The terrible earthquake has devastated an already desperate country. The whole world is reaching out to help them with supplies, money and rescuers. I pray the death count is much smaller than the estimates!
For the last decade, or longer, other countries and charities have been pouring money all over Haiti. Hundreds of millions have come from the UN and more than a billion from the US. Has the money accomplished anything? Not really... most of it has wound up in the grubby paws of corrupt politicians. It's the same with many other countries, folks. All the kindness and good intentions in the world (not to mention cash) can do nothing to help the poor. It isn't a matter of dollars and cents, but a matter of common sense

Remember back during the campaign? B.O. (B.S.) spoke repeatedly about Afghanistan being the real threat and how he would take the war there? He swore to pull out of Iraq and concentrate on fighting terrorism in his war-zone of choice.
This morning, amazing as it may seem, the Massachusetts candidate for Teddy Kennedy's old Senate seat has broken the wonderful news. She proudly proclaimed that all the terrorists have left Afghanistan! She wasn't very specific as to why they left, of course. Maybe it was the kindness and humane treatment we are now showing to the terrorists in custody. Could be that we are going to prosecute Navy seals for giving a fat lip to a murderer. Maybe it was the brilliant way B.O. (B.S.) made the General wait for more troops...? Or the drones that kill whoever they hit (terrorists or not). Yep, those are all good reasons

Did you hear the latest stupid remark from Chris Matthews? His ignorance can't be accidental, folks. He has to work hard to keep it up! If he thinks that only white folks are involved in the Tea Party movement, it's obvious that he's never wasted his time by paying attention. It doesn't take a rocket scientist (good thing, too, because he sure isn't one!) to look at the faces in a Tea Party crowd. Watching some of the FNC coverage of them wouldn't have been too complicated for a person with a brain, but it clearly it was beyond the abilities of Mr. Hardball. (Perhaps he should change the name to Hardhead?)
All right, the crowds are predominately white. But not exclusively! Are the Democrats so ignorant that they can't believe that "people of color" don't like being taxed to death? There were black faces, brown faces and olive faces in the crowds at the Tea Party events. The movement has support that crosses ethnic, religious, racial and party lines. Talk about "bi-partisan"! The Tea Parties are representative of America as a whole. It doesn't take a genius to understand that people who pay taxes or understand history, or have common sense don't like what the Democrats are doing to this country. An understanding of basic math is all you need in order to see that the healthcare debacle won't work. It will only limit medical care and cost a bundle. It doesn't require a degree in economics to understand that all the "stimulus packages" and "bail outs" don't work and have sunk us up to our eyeballs in the quicksand of debt. Catch phrases like "social justice" don't stand up to close examination, either, folks. Race baiting should be a thing of the past, but the liberals keep trying it

Bill O'Reilly posed an interesting question to Dr. Marc LaMont Hill last night. Dr. Hill dithered and fumbled and could give a rational answer (as usual).
O'Reilly asked a simple question. How can B.O. (B.S.) send drones to kill suspected terrorists (and anyone else who might be with them) on the one hand, yet give proven terrorists all the rights of American citizens

Did you hear the big news? It seems that some of the Democrat criminals in DC have decided not to run in the next election... Wonder why that is...?
Could it be that they started out believing that whatever they did would be allowed, even praised as they found new and creative ways to suck the nation dry? They expected to take our money and waste it in the most ridiculous and egregious ways they could find. Did they really believe we'd just sit back like good little sheeple and keep re-electing them? I bet they did! Then came the Tea Parties and the 9/12 Project. Perhaps a glimmer of daylight broke through their cloudy little brains

Like the two pronunciations for tomato and potato, it's it doesn't make a whole lot of difference which word you use.
The difference between a recession and a depression is very simple, folks. In a depression a loaf of bread only costs a nickel. But nobody has a nickel to buy one. In a recession, everyone has a dollar! But a loaf of bread costs $2.00. While you're going hungry, it doesn't make much difference what caused it, does it

I heard a news story this morning that left me scratching my head in complete amazement. It seems that we don't have a "head" of the TSA yet. There's a guy who was nominated for the job, but the Republicans are dragging their feet when it comes to approving him. Apparently he used his law enforcement position to check up on the record of his ex-wife's boyfriend (20 years ago). What?
Look, they OK'd a tax cheat (Geithner), a total incompetent (Napolitano), a man with terminal "foot in mouth" disease (Biden), a NAMBLA supporter for the Education Department, a proud racist for the Supreme Court (Sotomayor), a big fan of partial birth abortion for Health and Human Services (Sibelius), and too many more to list. Now, they're pretending to oppose a guy who "abused his power" by getting information that could effect the safety of his kids? I guess he didn't qualify as bad enough for the B.O. (B.S.) regime, maybe? The Republicans are suddenly making a show of caring what kind of criminals are running the country. I expect the Democrats to whole-heartedly support any low-life scum their hero comes up with. But when the Republicans pull a stunt like this, it boggles the mind, folks. Who's side are they on, anyway

on Can "On the Beach" Be Possible?
The Political Brief
Makes you wonder why Iran (or any other rogue state) has been allowed to get even close to developing such a weapon, doesn't it? Even someone as dense as our Psycho-in-Chief can't believe that Ahmadinejad has any "peaceful" purposes in mind. Or that he cares how many he kills.
