Gray Eagles

   I'm kind of doing this in reverse, my thoughts and plans about our military....as you know, very near and dear to my heart.  I tossed out the subject of Gray Eagles on Military.com's website forum last year and had much positive feedback.  
   What is 'Gray Eagles'?  Who is the more appropriate question.  Gray Eagles are prior and retired military personnel that still have the physical means to fight.  Taking this further and more detailed, what I proposed was the formation of a Gray Eagles Battalion to augment the front line military personnel that are being 'drained' in Iraq.  
   This 'battalion' would be fall under the 'U.S.Army Reserve' and whose members as I indicated, would be prior and retired military personnel....from all Branches of Service.  Since 'boots on the ground' are what is needed, this is why the GEB would be U.S. Army and not any other branch.
   There are numerous men and women who are physically able to perform the duties necessary to 'patrol' and if necessary, participate in offensive operations.  
   The GEB would provide another source of manpower to the Joint Chiefs so top line forces, i.e. Airborne,Rangers, Marines, do not have to continually rotated in/out of an Iraq type operation.  
   Members of the GEB would all come in as paygrade E2, officers if chosen by a Pentagon review board could assume rank/pay grade close or at their seperation/retirment. Mid level NCO's could be those who were senior NCO"s but have been out for more than five years.  Senior NCO's should come though from active duty or recent activated reserve status for the purpose of having recent experienced NCO's in the units.  The purpose of a GEB is to put boots on the ground and release our best troops to RnR and refit and prepare for the next big war or international crisis...which seem to come along quite a lot these days.    
   Everyone signing onboard, except the already active duty NCO's, would be required to sign up for a two year tour.  Options to extend at the end of that two years. 
   In WW2, Germany ended up using it's Air Force to man prison camps, and many of the sailors...became soldiers.  The U.S. could find itself in the same state without some good planning ahead.  In a quickly esculating conflict, in this modern World, the U.S. does not have the time nor ocean distance no more to build up a fighting force as we did in WW1, 2, Korea, and Vietnam.
  Modern world warfare is going to quick and dirty.  So, the think tanks and strategist had better plan now for tomorrow.  Part of that had better be the use of able bodies that still have the ability to fight.  
   If this too much for you and your laughing about a GEB.....go run an organized 5K, 10K run in your town,city.  Watch those old guys burn you and then you won't laugh....I guarantee it.

Serve at the pleasure of the President

    My better half, and she really is...and I were watching '24' tonight and during one of the 'White House' scene's, an arguement came up...as they always seem to do between two Cabinet members.  One retorted "I serve at the pleasure of the President'.   This caught me like a glancing blow.  I thought, that is really just a cop-out.  
  If you do not want to be held accountable for your actions, words....all one has to say is 'I serve at the pleasure of the President.'  Or if as in the fired prosecuting attorney's case, they serve at the pleasure of the President.  
   What's wrong with that whole picture???
   C'mon, think about it.
   This also goes to my last blog entry about the great learned leadership and their staff not thinking.
   What is wrong is that no one serves at anyone's pleasure.  For if they do....then we do not have a Republic of and for the People.  We do not have 'elected' officials.  We have a monarchy.
   Every single position in our Federal Government from Housekeeper to President, is an appointed job.  So for a Cabinet member to so easily opt out of consequences by saying they serve at the pleasure of the President.....is like saying they are above the law.
   Those prosecuting attorneys, that both Clinton and Bush Administrations had fired.....those were jobs.  As all jobs in the Federal Government, those jobs are to serve and protect the Constitution of the United States and it's People.  Anything less....then we do live under a monarchy system and not under what is perceived as a Representative Republic of Democracy.  
   So the saying should be 'I serve at the behest of the People of the United States and stand for the Constitution'.   If there's anything other than that....we need a new revolution......preferrably peaceful and at the ballot boxes.

  Added 20 March 2007:   The line on 24 was 'serve at the discretion of the President'.  I found my little note I jotted down to remind me.  Discretion, pleasure,whatever....that language indicates a monarchy, not an elected represented official.

And they wonder about us?

  Scrolling through a few headlines, I began shaking my own head....what in the World are they thinking????
  Let's start with Rosie:      I copied this picture because it was attached to the article.......are they brother and sister?????  Looks make one wonder.  But Rosie is now yapping about 9/11 Conspiracy number 3274:  it was an inside job to cover up Erron investigations.  Oh phaleeeazzze.  http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=54770

  White House is now looking for Attorney General replacements.  Yes, the Democrats smell blood and are on the attack and the White House is in full retreat.  And the GOP wants me to send them money....for what....their vacation condos in South Miami???  http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0307/3202.html

http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=070319203133.jjkwelmw&show_article=1  Iran stopped UN inspectors from visiting an underground bunker where it is building an industrial-scale plant to make enriched uranium but the inspectors will try again, diplomats told AFP Monday.

  Well, well, well.....what is the great and mighty U.N. going to do now.....write a memo???!!  I bet that the Iranian Revolutionary Gurad are already hiding the warheads designated for Moscow and Beijing......far easier to transport since the borders are so nearby....and spread the word of Islam against the invader Russians and the godless communist Chinese that enslave muslim brothers.
 
  Rush...what is this about???  http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=54755   Rush Limbaugh admits hots for 'babe' Valerie Plame
Radio legend: 'If she weren't married ... I'd be throwing my hat in the ring'

   Told you she had a face no one could forget.....least a foreign power leader who she was doing 'covert' operations in that country and then he remembers that face with his security minister after seeing them in Vanity Fair and on the Nightly News.
   Rush....I wouldn't blame you, but.....there's a world full of hotties out there.

Presidential candidate bungles speech in Miami

People chuckled when presidential candidate Mitt Romney, a Mormon raised in Michigan and elected in Massachusetts, bungled the names of Cuban-American politicians during a recent speech in Miami.

But when he mistakenly associated Fidel Castro's trademark speech-ending slogan -- Patria o muerte, venceremos! -- with a free Cuba, listeners didn't laugh. They winced.

   Now, these people all want to lead the Nation....the still...most powerful Nation on the World.  Does any ever just stop to think first????  Does anyone ever ask 'who, what, where, when, why?'
Excuse me everyone....I don't' know what I'm talking about....I'm not a elite University grad....I should know my place....I'm not one of the movers or shakers....just a worker bee having blind faith in the hive.

Plame on

 

WASHINGTON - Valerie Plame, the CIA operative at the heart of a political scandal, told Congress Friday that senior officials at the White House and State Department "carelessly and recklessly" blew her cover to discredit her diplomat-husband.

   It's amazing, Valerie Plame was agent 0036-24-36, Jane Bond.  They at the White House 'blew' her cover.  Which was??????  So she was under cover?? Whose covers was she under?

   Under cover agent in at gala event on 10 Oct 2006.  Don't want to spread the word of who or what she is.....hush...

   Hiding out at the White House Correspondents' Dinner 29 April 2006.  No better place to hide than with....a bunch of journalist.  And at the White House...the same place whose 'administration' outted her??   Hmmm.
     Vanity Fair article promised not to release the names of all those oh so important foreign agent contacts she had....yep no one would recognize her face and remember her with their chief of security.....foreign minister......no....she's too non-descript to spark a memory recall. Yeah, I wouldn't remember this face....

 .....'that's right...I don't remember who she is...'

  'what no one remembered her name'
   'well maybe a hunting trip in the open fresh air will jog your memory'
   'I remember who she is, she was in Basic Instinct, Sharon Stone'
   'what y'all lookin' at me for, I'm sure you all said you wanted Chinese take out.'

Death to republicans and what it really says

   I could have thrown this as well under education and continue to make my point that the College and University system in the U.S. in nothing more than money making baby sitting institutions.   But I won't.  Here's the short version what I just read:    

'Execute Republicans,' says college prof
Defends classtime instruction because she said it with a smile

Posted: March 13, 2007
1:00 a.m. Eastern


© 2007 WorldNetDaily.com

A professor at North Idaho College says it's all right to talk about executing "anyone who's ever voted Republican" as long as it's said with a smile.

The belief was expressed by instructor Jessica Bryan when her comments were challenged by a student, Linda Cook, who served as an aide to the late U.S. Rep. Helen Chenoweth, R-Idaho, and is a longtime supporter of the Republican Party.

Cook wrote to the school asking for a refund on fees she paid for a course taught by Bryan, after she withdrew because of the instructor's comments. Cook told the Spokane Spokesman-Review that Bryan used every class period in the English composition course to criticize and disparage Republicans, including the suggestion of the death penalty for everyone who chooses to support a Republican with a vote.

  What this says is a sublimial and deep conscious thought, and belief, that many on the socialist left feel and believe.  They would betray America in a heart beat and point out anyone that had ever been or voted anything but 'Democrat' or leftist to Communist or Islamo-Fascist soldiers in the event of a hostile take over of the U.S.A.   They on the socialist left, they, being Americans themselves, lived, grown, and thrived upon the lives of those who have lost their's in wars defending this Nation,  still cling to the saying 'better red than dead'.

VRWC - We've been found and outted

  Despite the best decoder rings we could find in the back of the comic books.  Despite the vast amounts of illegally hidden money funneled to us by Halliburton, Exxon, and McDonald's.  Despite having our best agent (aka Slick Willy) trying to keep her attention off of us.......we've been found out and announced to the World.   The deep dark hidden secret is over...she found us out.

 Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-N.Y.

Clinton: Vast right-wing conspiracy is back
Cites anti-voter actions, phone jamming and intimidating phone calls
The Associated Press
Updated: 11:48 a.m. CT March 13, 2007

WASHINGTON - The "vast, right-wing conspiracy" is back, presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton is warning, using a phrase she once coined to describe partisan plotting.

Once derided for her use of the phrase, Clinton is now trying to turn the imagery to her advantage.

Speaking Tuesday to Democratic municipal officials, the New York senator used the term to hammer Republicans on election irregularities.

She also used the phrase similarly during a campaign appearance over the weekend in New Hampshire.

Conspiracy alive and well
Clinton was first lady when she famously charged allegations of an affair between her then-president husband Bill Clinton and White House intern Monica Lewinsky were the result of a conservative conspiracy.

As evidence of the affair eventually came to light, the comment was ridiculed.But many Democrats have since insisted that Clinton was correct, pointing to the well-documented efforts by conservative financier Richard Mellon Scaife to fund a network of anti-Clinton investigations.

On Tuesday, she asserted the conspiracy is alive and well, and cited as proof the Election Day 2002 case of phone jamming in New Hampshire, a case in which two Republican operatives pleaded guilty to criminal charges, and a third was convicted.

"To the New Hampshire Democratic party's credit, they sued and the trail led all the way to the Republican National Committee," Clinton said.

"So if anybody tells you there is no vast right-wing conspiracy, tell them that New Hampshire has proven it in court," she said.

Clinton-era talking points?
Former RNC operative James Tobin was convicted of telephone harassment and appealed his conviction. The investigation arose after Democratic organizers' phones were overwhelmed by annoying hang-up calls hindering their get-out-the-vote efforts.

Clinton accused the GOP of a number of other anti-voter actions, including intimidating phone calls during the contentious 2006 congressional elections.

New Hampshire Democratic Party chairwoman Kathy Sullivan said she absolutely agreed with the senator's description of the case.

"People think we're paranoid when we talk about the vast right-wing conspiracy, but there is a real connection of these groups -- the same names keep popping up," said Sullivan. "They are the most disgusting group of political thugs that I have ever seen."

RNC spokeswoman Tracey Schmitt responded that Democrats "might be disappointed to learn that almost a decade later, the senator's playbook consists of little more than a resurrection of Clinton-era talking points."

Clinton made her charge of conspiracy in response to a question about her proposed bill that would make Election Day a federal holiday, and make it a crime to send misleading or fraudulent information to voters.

She also said the government should do more to end unusually long lines at certain polling places.

"It just so happens that many of those places where people are waiting for hours are places where people of color are voting or young people are voting. That is un-American, and we're going to end it," Clinton said.

    Note to all agents:  destroy your hard drives tonight.  Give all of your written papers to your dog to chew up, then put them in the kitty litter box for permanent erasal procedures.  In the event you have a bird....line the bottom of the bird cage..that will suffice as well.  Now comes the unthinkable but it must be done.....if you have an aquarium with guppies and gold fish.....flush them down the toilet....they've seen and heard everything and will talk to the Animal Planet reporters.
   On the way out of your door tonight to catch the last plane to Argentina.....where all the Nazi's went after World War Two and set up the Vast Right Wing headquarters in the mountain bunkers....shut the lights off so you won't be blamed for causing more global warming by using too much electricity.

I miss Mayberry RFD

   If you don't know what I mean by my title...I"ll feel sorry for you.  You missed out on the greatest time of America's history.  My father, one of the Greatest Generation, lived during the best times of the United States, outside of the lack of understanding and acceptance of racism against the African American.  What I mean by acceptance is that white America in whole denied that they were condoning rascism and segregation based on color.  That was a horrific shame.
   But overall, living in America between 1920 to 1970 was a grand time, and the 50's was probably the best decade to be alive.  
   Sometimes it chews me up inside to be blogging so much about Islam.  But it's the threat I see that is larger than anything, that threatens my way of life.  
   Russia and China are both wise enough to understand the MAD doctrine.  But the Middle East....not a chance.
   I miss the simple days of going fishing and not worrying about all the daily crappola that proliferates the news headlines.  Most of it attacks on our way of life, from without and within.
   What do you mean I can't have french fries deep fried in lard???
    What do you mean I can't have butter smothering my crab???
      What do you mean I can't call someone a stupid idiot moron for walking in front of my car?
    I could go on and on, but I think you're wise enough to see in your own life how it's been changed.   Not from the historical lines of politics or religion that has grown  and saved this country from it's birth to 1990.  But from the enemy from without and within that has forced change upon the people of this country and our way of life to suit there's.  
   I watch the end of the Andy Griffith show and see Andy and Opie walking that dirt road just coming back from fishing.  That my friends...was America in it's greatest.  As 'Archie Bunker and Edith' sang....'those were the days'.

Europes Islamic problem grows

 http://www.spcm.org/Journal/spip.php?article7249

JOURNAL CHRETIEN http://www.spcm.org/Journal/spip.php?article7249
Islam is Taking a Grip on Europe
Why Muslims Object to Piggy Banks
samedi, 10 mars 2007 / Aloys Evina / Pasteur à Paris et président de la Mission Chrétienne Globale, une organisation de défense des libertés chrétiennes affiliée à la Conférence des ONG ayant des Relations Consultatives avec les Nations Unies.

By Wolfgang Polzer

WETZLAR — Islam is slowly but surely taking a grip on the European culture, warns the German journalist and university lecturer Udo Ulfkotte. Traditional values, customs and judicial standards are gradually customized to meet Muslim requirements.

As Ulfkotte explained at a meeting of Christian Democrats in Wetzlar, March 8, more and more institutions are making allowances for Muslims. Many banks, he said, are abandoning the so-called piggy banks, because they are afraid of losing Muslim customers. Muslims regard the pig as an unclean animal.

German butchers who sell pork are targeted by Muslim extremists, according to Ulfkotte. Muslims occasionally spit on sausages on sale at open-air markets.

In some European cities Muslim taxi drivers refuse to transport dogs, even blind persons with guide dogs. Two schools in Berlin have installed two separate entrances – one for German Christians and Jews and the other for Muslim Arabs and Turks.

The Muslim Sharia law is also beginning to take hold. Banks are offering Sharia-friendly investments, Ulfkotte said. Authorities in Berlin have recognized a Sharia lawyer, who settles family feuds.

According to the journalist many German politicians turn a blind eye to the gradual Islamization. They often emphasize that the vast majority of the 3.5 million Muslims in Germany are peaceful citizens. But, says Ulfkotte, 40 percent are convinced that the German constitution is incompatible with Islam.

According to the journalist many Muslims in Europe show a lack of tolerance. For their integration to be successful they would have to adapt to basic European values.

Hindus, Ulfkotte said, are a good example that this is possible. They accept that Europeans eat beef, although Hindus regard cows as sacred animals. 

   There dear reader, I"ll let you digest that one.  Let's take this and move it to the United States and see what would happen.  CAIR announces no pig farms will be allowed in any area near a muslim home or mosque.  Farmers ordered to move or face prison or death under Islamic law. 
    All dogs and cats must be immediately brought for slaughter to 'cleanse' the United States by order of Sharia law.
   Anyone hiding or found protecting any Jews will be killed themselves...under edict of Sharia law.
   Think I"m kidding don't you.   Watch what happens to Europe in the next twenty years if Europeans don't start making a real bonda fide stand for themselves.  This is a war of cultures,  not of religion.  Religion is just the excsue being used.

Has Russia seen the light

   http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D8NQN2400&show_article=1&catnum=2

   We read now that Tehran has not payed the Russians money due for the help on their nuclear plant. 
   We read that the Russian's are sending a message to Iran not to play anti-Amerian games with this nuclear poliferation.
  Maybe, just maybe somewhere in Moscow, someone has seen the future.  Once Iran has all of it's nuclear facilities online, it will only be a matter of time....just a matter of time.....before a nuke made in Iran, ironically courtesy of Russia, will find it's way into Chechen muslim hands. 
   Then, shortly there after, breaking news will start flashing across the globe....nuclear explosion hits Red Square, Moscow in flames.  Only a matter of time.  Unless..........Russia sees the light before it becomes the light that will blind and burn them for their ignorance and greed.
   They in Moscow had better remember that Russia invaded two muslim countries outright, it's proven over and over again that muslim love nothing better than to avenge a historical wrong against them.

Counter sue CAIR

  Just read where those six beligerrent 'imams' on that US Air flight are going to sue US Airways, and that 'CAIR'....is backing them all the way.  This is just more PROOF that CAIR does not care about America.  That CAIR does not care about the hundred of thousands of Americans that have died over the past 230 plus years to build and save the United States.   CAIR is an enemy to the U.S. Constitution and the American way of life.  CAIR is an enemy to the freedoms of mankind to worship under any other religion than Islam, or to chose not to worship at all.   
   That is something the thick heads on the left really had better wake up to fast before they find all of their rights and lives have been taken by the likes of CAIR.  
  Following this ridiculous law suit, someone had better counter sue CAIR and those Imams....like they're really religious persons, for if they were, MONEY would mean nothing.....but OOHHH...to fund terrorism, to fund murder against all non-muslims, they need money.  A true religous person would not seek money.  Does a priest, rabbi, pastor, sue for money???!!!!  NO.  It's against God's will to seek monetary influence, monetary advantage, or any other form of money other that what one earns from providing a service and/or work.  
  This is very important here - no true religious leader would seek money!!!!!  In God's eyes, that a sin.  
   Also more proof that Islam and the Western societies, do not mix.

Islam again..attacks Euro-Caucasions

 http://www.townhall.com/News/NewsArticle.aspx?ContentGuid=f30c6d9c-abbb-4354-bf48-a62a92dafd71

  The first link is a TownHall article on how Islamic militants (not Christian, Buddist, Hindu, Atheist, Pagan, Wiccan, nor anyone else)...but Islamic...that is muslims...are threatening to attack...and kill...Germans and Austrians.  Germany...you've made your problem the worst with such 'liberal' immigration policies by letting the wolf in the sheeps pen and locking the gate behind it, better hope there's some stout 'rams' to take that wolf out.

http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0,,21359122-662,00.html

  Second link comes from Down Under in Australia where they've done the same stupid thing as Western Europe by allowing so many 'muslims' in that do not assimilate to the culture.  Luckily, they're on an island and can take care of that problem post haste.

  Here's an exerpt from that second link that is pretty telling to all Westerner's, especially people living in South Florida and California:  

The book prescribes stoning for adultery and drinking alcohol and advocates flogging for casual sex.


   Can you imagine the number of people that would be flogged in just those two areas???  Keep your head in the sand and allow the influence of Islam into your community and see what happens.
   I said it before and it's worth repeating:  Islam is uncompatible with living in any Western society.
   Muslims have the whole Middle East and parts of South East Asia (those are relative to strong cultural norms though), but if Muslims insist on persecuting anyone outside of their religion, changing the governmental institutions of countries, prohibiting the rights of man to enjoy their own personal freedoms as they chose, wish, desire, and work for.....than Islam does not belong and will not ever co-exist in all historical non-muslim lands, territories, and countries.  Not with death coming first in the forms of executions, murders, and outright warfare.
   
  Let me ask you this dear reader:  why....do all muslims have to learn arabic languages in order to pray to God when all other races, creeds, and nationalities can pray in their own languages????  Do you think God is incapible of understanding anything except arabic??  To me, this is nothing short of a 'control' used to discriminate against outsiders.  The only other languages you hear coming out of mosques are political rantings of hate against non-muslims.  Then if they pray in a language outside of arabic, farsi, whaterver....often the message is interwoven with arabic words still.  
  There is a war now, a world war and it's three dimensional.  Muslim v. Muslim v. The Rest of the World.  Guys like Chavez, Putin, and Kim are just maniacal dictators bent on their own power trip and are unable to see the big World picture of problems that face mankind.  Bad enough we have climate change going on, some meteor that is going to past really really close to Earth in about twenty - thirty years....sidebar:  there have been a whole lot of stories of small meteors lately hitting the earth, homes, cars, wide open spaces....just above what was the 'norn' though.
   Then there's Islam.  If it wasn't for the oil money that has given the radicals the financing to back their war on the World......they still might be just killing each other over clan and tribal fights that started two thousand years ago.  But now it's the Crusades they use or some trumped up massacre in 1967 during a 'war' they started.  Islam - the religion of peace, love, and tolerance...for arab muslims only though.

Gathering clouds over Israel

    
     http://www.alertnet.org/thenews/newsdesk/L07168964.htm

    Seems many stories on the various news wires indicate the building of belligerent forces arrayed against Israel.  Hezbollah has been rearmed by Syria and Iran.  Syria has built Hezbollah-type guerilla forces near the Golan Heights.  Hamas has been building it's terrorist militia under the same organization and tactics as Hezbollah.  N
  Now Israel is warning it's citizens to get out of Egypt and Jordan, this following a propaganda campaign by Egyptian Islamo Fascist to foment war.  The EIF is using proganda about the 1967 War that was started by countries governed under Islam against Israel and lost by the aggressors.
  Now, here again lies the truth behind dealing with Muslims, they use history as an excuse...an excuse...to kill.  They don't use history to learn, to become better human beings, they use to kill.  Period.  
  All indications appear to be concluding the same....radical Islam wants to war upon the people of Israel...again.  There was recently a large meeting between the Arab-Gulf States and this must have been a finalized signal to start this next blunder into madness for radical Islam.
  The only hope is that Israel will strike back so severely that radical Islam will cease to exist and that the United States had better help Israel since no one else in the World will aid Israel.  With some irony, I just finished watching the History Channel's 'Last Stand of the 300' which was the Persian's invasion of Greece and eventual burning of Athen's.  Xerxes was planning that invasion for over ten years....again....Muslims using anything as an excuse to invade and kill.  Guess it's a historical thing.  (That was a great show, I highly recommend watching it.)
  Back to today.....something more than Iraq is about to burst.  If you've noticed dear reader, no one is the Middle East has been doing anything majorly pro-active to stop the wave of violence in Iraq and Afghanistan other than the U.S. and some token NATO forces.  All we've heard is talk talk talk.....and in the day of living, talk is cheap these days...deeds are everything.

The lesson: Money talks

 http://www.breitbart.com/news/2007/03/08/D8NO41400.html

   Education, though I lack a scholarly one myself, is very important to me for the very same reasons that they are to Bill Gates.  The United States is dumbing down every year it's own citizens in order to please the more left, lenient, and Californized system and populace. 
  We may hear reports put out to the press about how our children are learning more, have higher grades, ecetera ecetera, but the truth is before your eyes and ears.  Every time you go out in public and deal with anyone under, I dare say, thirty, you can recognize the lack of education.  
  Most pronouncely it is the simple speech you hear.  Every sentence sounds like a question, with the most pronounced inflection heard at the end of a sentence.  Often, the majority of a sentence will include at least a fourth of the words in slang terms.  Incorherient jibberish is sometimes all one hears.
  I heard on the radio that about 80% of our workforce is customer service orientated.  I just went online to look at the Federal Bureau of Labor and Statistics, (you need to do this too dear reader - remember, I'll show you where the mountain is but won't climb it for you) and the ten occupations with the largest job growth between 2004 and 2014 are all customer service related. 
  Five of those ten need only 'short term on the job training' to accomplish which fits nicely into the current U.S. education system and American mentality.  American Idol by the way, is the most watched program on TV.
  What Bill Gates is now saying to America, is that America needs people from other countries to do the more brain work occupations because Americans are too lazy to learn and consequently, stupid.  Well, I said that, but it's true.  But it takes someone with money to get the attention of Congress to hopefully wake up from their constant campaigning for their next election to take action now.
   There's that new show, Are You Smarter than a Fifth Grader....that's proving, very proving of our educational system.  California, which has over the past forty years, has become more of a cancer to the United States with it's onslaught of overly liberal lifestyle and mentality, now wants to do away with homework for school children.  Better they sit at home with their parents and watch American Idol than learn anything usual.  And people wonder why Oprah built a school in South Africa.  It's because she's smart and she realizes and knows that American children no longer appreciate education and there will have to be someone in the future to save mankind from itself.
   It won't be the California kids...dude...like yaa...oral sex is not sex, like - everyone is doing it.
   I had on Hannity and Colms a while ago and they were discussing something about prisons in, where else, California and a scroll on the bottom said that about five thousand inmates might be set free.  If America had a true education system, our entire country would be more productive, not so self destructive.  It all adds together.
   Headlines on Fox News:  Man burns genitals in 'JackAss' stunt, most Gen Y and Xer's have watched these JackAss movies which helped propel this idiotic movie into sequels. 
  Student invents beer tossing machine.  What is the biggest passtime of our largest babysitting institutions?  Drinking alcohol. 
   Anna Nichole....geez, didn't we get enough already?? 
   Repeating myself from other posts in the past, watch Jay Leno's Jay Walking or Hannity's man on the street and see and hear America.  No wonder the World hates us, we're not only weak in conviction, we're stupid too.

Venezuela - press hard now

 http://www.newsmax.com/archives/articles/2007/3/8/80311.shtml?s=lh

  Now there's an interesting article about Chavez and his state of mind.  Paranoia to be precise.  He had a retired Venezuelan General (Gen. Ramon Davila) arrested for supposably organizing a military coup against Chavez. 
   Now is the time to press hard against Chavez, he's already beginning to lose control of Venezuela if has to start arresting leading figures on bogus charges. 
  Now is the time for the free world to show the Venezuelan people, how Chavez has taken away their liberties, their rights to self determination, their rights as individuals.  
  Chavez is leading Venezuela into a bloody civil if not regional war with his massive arms build up and this must be shown to the Venezuelan people. 
  Now is the time for action against a ruthless dictator before countless numbers of innocent people are killed removing a mad man.

Listening to radio

  It's late again, my better half is already heading to bed and I just had to check the online news and saw the story about Rush Limbaugh:  http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=54600   The caller, Barbara was half right in her question of what is Rush doing. 
  We in the trenches of life, listen to the radio and hear the very few who are on and able to have a national audience, wait to hear words of real value.  Words that not only excite, but direct and words that we know, hey, this person is for real and we're going to go do something together.
  I know....what Rush's problem stems from with his audience.  He talks often tongue in cheek and sometimes it's hard to discern when he's being really actual about his feelings or is this just another parody on a news item. 
   Rush is not the only one.  Sean Hannity will get into a story and then he'll say something about he's mad as a teapot ready to blow....usually his choice of words are along those lines.  So it's hard to take him seriously, okay Sean, you're mad...now go really do something about it like get into someone's face, start a masssive protest, get arrested, show conviction! 
   It's along those lines that listeners, including myself, would really want to 'see' the talk show gallery do.  I have Neal's book now, bought it the other day - your welcome Neal - and am currently reading it and will, if I think it's good, make it mandatory family reading this spring, especailly for my group of twentysomethings.
  There's a whole lot of people talking on the radio, listening can get one a headache sometimes because we do get caught up in the emotion of the topic at times.  I tried Air America....Bush lied, people died....that's bascially all you hear.  No wonder it went belly up.  I know another reason too but I'll see how smart the left is if they can figure it out.  After all, they have the 'priviledge' college education backing them up.   Me, I'm just a guy in the trenches, or on  a wire, getting a birds eye view of it all.  
  But I must make one thing most importantly clear to everyone.  Rush Limbaugh saved talk radio and gave it the shot in the heart to keep it alive and kicking.  That's why he's earned the title, the Godfather of talk radio. Honor il nostro Godfather con rispetto quotidano.
  Talk radio has given the average American a platform to voice his/her opinion, make sure you, average American, ensure this is not taken away by the 'socialist'.  (Sidebar:  I hate the term liberal for Democrats or leftist, they are what they are socialist.)   Vote and make sure every vote that comes up counts, matters, and is won by the 'right' persons. 
  As Rush pointed out:  elections have consequences.  I loved the term he came up with today about the drive by media.  ABC, NBC, CNN, CBS, NYT, LAT, WP, etc.....they are the 'Branch Offices of the DNC'.  That is so so so true.  That's another blog for another time.
   Last bit....listen to Greg Knapp if you have him on your radio dial.  New guy in my raido area, I liked what I heard.
