The Hilarity Continues

The new "Hawkish Dove" Barack Obama has left his nest and squawked out his intentions. Apparently stung by Mrs. Bill Clinton's comments which pointed out his naivete and lack of "gravitas", Obama outlined his new strategy for peace. This daring plan calls for the immediate withdrawal of US troops from Iraq and their reassignment as invaders of Pakistan.

Of course the left leaning NPR media embraced his remarks as "strong" and predicted that Mrs. Bill Clinton will have to say something similar as the Democrats are known to be weak on national defense. Being weak on national defense is one thing but the call for an invasion of an ally on the simple basis that that ally is not capable of controlling its own territory is something else and something quite new for the United States.

Further the children now in charge of the Democrat Party and the US Congress are playing romper room with the nation's ability to detect terror plots against the homeland and other places. The Bush administration has been begging for a FISA court procedural streamlining for months. The Democrats have been foot dragging at the behest of the ACLU, MoveOn.Org, and others whose whining complaints border on the ludicrous. Now, on the verge of their aptly named summer recess, the Democrat leadership is willing to work on passing the necessary changes. Work, not promise to change. The impetus for this course correction is the fear that an attack might occur during their recess period and the blame would fall on them for failing to make intelligence gathering and sharing less difficult.

There is a fly in the ointment though. The sticking point is Alberto Gonzales and his role as attorney general in obtaining future wiretap warrants. Apparently the caveat is the Mr. Gonzales may not do his constitutional job if the Democrats are to fix the existing system. The Kindergarten Cops of the Democrat Party are going to take their ball and go home if they can't have their way. These people can not be trusted to protect the nation.

The ultra (loony) left actually believe that if Islam should succeed in its goal of world domination they would be spared. This collection of infidels which includes adulterers, atheists, pedophiles, drunks, drug users, and the rest will be the first to go. There will be no love only convert or die.

Barack Obama now has no chance of being nominated as the Democrat Party presidential candidate. He had only a slim one to begin with. Charges of US racism have been leveled at the Republican electorate, but only Democrats can nominate for their party. Does this mean that if they fail to nominate Barack that Democrats are racists?

The Light Begins To Dawn

The controversy over Iraq is beginning to resemble a Kafka novel. One may fairly imagine the members of the looney left wondering just what their lives mean. After basking in the election results, unreasonably, they flexed their muscles and bullied the Democrat Party leadership into heading for the precipice. Yesterday a notable shift began.

The main allies of the uber liberals is the print media and some television outlets. These friends have begun to shift away from defeat by proxy in Iraq and now realize the imminent danger to the Democrat Party such a result would present. Of course Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi don't get it because they need the money provided by the slobbering masses of MoveOn.Org and the Daily Kos. The brilliant people on the left are apparently self diagnosed as their is no evidence that they are able to communicate their ideas and emotions in any civil fashion. Their behavior continues to resemble toddlers. One can only hope that they will hold their breath and turn blue.

So now with the "surge" succeeding the howls of pain are related to the politic situation. This is of course natural and reasonable. The Iraqi Shia want revenge, a time honored behavior in Islam, and will string out reconciliation as long as possible. Apparently the Sunnis are waking up to the fact that if the US leaves they will be exterminated by their peace loving Islamic brethren. So cooperation with allied forces and rejection of Al Qeada has become a worthy strategy. Some of the more mature left wingers realize this too and want to avoid being blamed for the genocide that will follow their recommended course of action.

The middle and right wing of American politics must not deride this return to rationality by some members of the left. Rather it must be welcomed as a unifying act on the part of fellow citizens and a hopeful sign that the United States will preserve its interests without further damaging its influence.

Russ Feingold: Idiot Savant or simply अन idiot

Russ Feingold is a brilliant man, this is known to be true because Harry Reid has said so. Feingold qualifications include a Rhodes Scholarship, a Harvard degree, and membership in the US Senate; so far so good. He is also a member of the Democrat Party which brings into question his ethics if not his IQ. Basically Russ Feingold is a demagogue in every sense of the word.

His statements are quite revealing as is his proposal to censure President Bush through a senate resolution. The so called illegal wire taps that provide surveillance of calls from foreign countries are his main issue. The other seems to be outrage that such a stupid person as George Bush was able to dupe the entire Democrat Party into going to war in Iraq. Feingold knows these accusations are baseless which is why he is grandstanding the censure motion.

He and his comrades love to use the phrase that the American People are outraged and that they, the Democrat Party, are the only true representatives of the public. While patently and clearly not true the Democrats are making themselves believe it.

Apparently they cannot be counted on to protect the nation from terrorists if they do not want to listen in to enemy phone calls. Of course the Democrats don't believe that there is a threat or that one will exist subsequent to the end of military action in Iraq. It is difficult to believe that adult citizens of the United States can truly be so naive; rather it is wishful thinking derived from fear.

Feingold, Pelosi, Reid, et al should lead the nation instead of following George Soros. The Democrat Party has disappeared and been replaced by something unknown but recognizable.

Keith Ellison Liberal Confusion Poster Boy

The recent controversy about Keith Ellison's diatribe against President Bush missed the point completely. The fact that a Democrat, ultra-liberal, MoveOn.Org type would bash the president is not a news story or even remarkable. What is amazing about this incident is that Keith Ellison claims to be a convert to Islam. Why is that something to raise eyebrows?

The occasion of Ellison's "stinging" anti-Bush comments was a meeting of atheists to which Ellison had been invited to speak; he of course accepted. In Islam the most serious capital crime, of which there are many, is Atheism. The punishment of a revealed atheist is immediate death and is the obligation of any and all Muslims to carry out. It is bad enough to be a Muslim in a world the Allah has allowed the presence of billions of infidels to persist, but to have a believer address a group of atheists in the United States is enough to have the prophet wondering how his instructions could be so distorted.

The Koran encourages tolerance of infidels if they adhere to the instructions found in the Holy Bible. The preference is that all non-Muslims convert to Islam. The dream is that the near future will bring such mass conversions or mass killings of infidels. Keith Ellison is obviously some sort of apostate as he is willing to associate with people who constantly affront Allah and the Prophet.

This situation also illustrates the hypocrisy of American atheists in particular and atheists in general as well. The well known contretemps about Ellison being sworn in using the Koran was silly, but to atheists should have been anathema. Yet here they are having wine and cheese while Ellison condemns the US and the president. There is no problem with atheism in the Democrat party as the leadership considers any religious person naive and dangerous. Religion is just another tool in the box for the Democrats and Ellison's behavior illustrates this perfectly.

Scooter and other things

Recently controversies have been raging over a variety of subjects, what's the point of it all? The one idea running through all the outrage being expressed is the frustration of ultra liberals that some Americans object to the liberal agenda. The idea that Scooter Libby is somehow cheating the liberals of a surrogate jailbird is just plain silly. Bill Clinton and Sandy Berger lied about their actions; one under oath, the other a federal investigator. Their punishment, suspended law license in the former case and probation for the latter. Scooter Libby was caught up in a witch hunt about a crime that never was. Is this the American Way of Justice?

Now it's back to get out of Iraq. A bigger mistake is not possible at this time. The very fact that Cindy Sheehan thinks she can intimidate Nancy Pelosi demonstrates the foolish lack of thought behind the "anti-war" movement. There is no such movement but rather a smokescreen of maniacal opposition to George Bush's presidency. Admittedly George has failed to live up to his potential and is actually closer to liberals than he is to conservatives. Should the US pull out of Iraq it would validate Bin Laden's assertion that America won't fight that the nation has no stomach for defense. Further it would lead to another Shiite controlled Islamic state, the other being Iran. Why would that be a problem? The other Islamic states are primarily Sunni based, a strong Shiite militarily powerful state would probably lead to civil war and force drilling for oil in ANWAR.

Arabs (Muslims) respect only force as that is their only experience of relating to the world. The very basis of Islam is that any non-believer is an infidel and once the opportunity to embrace Islam is refused such a person must be killed. That is the long and the short of it. This kind of thinking is unfamiliar to "Westerners" because civilization is the hallmark of peaceful people. There is a constant reminder that philosophically Islam is a religion of peace and that life is sacred. There is constant evidence that this philosophy does not apply to non-Muslims or even certain Muslims within the Islamic family. Go figure.

Ah Homeland Security, the panacea that veils the true weakness and vulnerability of the United States. After the recent effort to grant amnesty to at least 12 million illegal immigrants failed, Michael Chertoff ruefully concluded that he would have to enforce laws currently on the books. What a completely lame performance. Prior to the legislative loss the public had been informed that such actions were not feasible.

The real danger is that the current border situation has made it possible for terrorists to enter the US and simply bide their time. This is the reason for Chertoff's recent "gut attack". No attacks for more than five years is a situation that is about to change in a major way. The obvious targets are everywhere: shopping malls, office buildings, petroleum storage areas, etc. All are vulnerable because citizens of the US are being led to believe that there is no war on terrorism and even if there were one the government is all knowing and protective.

Believing politicians has always been risky but never more than today.

The Alfred E. Neuman Effect

The What Me Worry attitude is one that most people ignore but should probably adopt as a way of coping with their lives. The constant bombardment by various forms of media and activist groups raising awareness of problems the aren't really problems is enough to drive anyone crazy. Climate change, is it a problem? The answer is not only no but it is a normal phenom onmen that occurs to the earth as it travels around the sun hurtling through cold dark space. If the climate didn't change there would be no human beings around today to worry about what is going to happen to the weather in 500 years.

Overweight, so what? The food police excuse their behavior with the dismissive " We only want you to be healthy" as if it is really their responsibility to worry about anyone but themselves. If people want to eat themselves to death as a means of finding happiness then let them. What is more annoying to a "Just do as I say"?

Illegal immigration, why is this a problem? Let'em in a make them speak English. No bilingual society is needed. Go to Europe and find out which language is spoken where. There are no special arrangements made for tourists or immigrants. Speak my language or else.

Hyphenated citizen's; what's the point? Heritage is one thing but keep it private; no parades please. Who really cares if one person is Latvian-American and another is Irish-American? Getting a job is much more important to one's well being. Winning the lottery wouldn't hurt either.

Don Imus, another wasted chance. Freedom of speech is wonderful just let them keep talking and let them reveal how stupid they are. Rosie O'Donnell is a prime example that one needn't be intelligent to get noticed. The fans of such individuals are on the same neanderthal level as their idols, again so what? It's obvious that the average human being is actually quite a bit below average in every category that counts.

Get over it and get on with life.

A New Religion?

Rush Limbaugh has characterized the adherents of the Climate Change Panic as members of a new religion. Is he correct? If one thinks of the current craziness in terms of a primordial time then yes it might be an accurate description of events. It has long been held that religions emerged as a way of explaining the terrifying and wonderful events that occurred in the lives of pre-historic and then historical known cultures. Floods, storms, forest fires, plains fires, droughts, were all ascribed to various gods even to the extent of naming the particular fire-god et al.

Later of course a single god emerged from the crowd as sophistication and political expediency demanded a match between religion and secular life. Only Judaism and Islam have only one god, Christianity has three (albeit inhabiting one god body) which makes it a throwback to paganism; a corruption of Judaism as it was absorbed by the Romans. What makes the current religion or cult of climate change any different?

Thanks to the amount and immediacy of news coverage events seem more important now than they ever were. Contributing to the panic is the relative shortness of human lives;especially relative to geologic time. Most people living today seem to think that floods, droughts, earthquakes, hurricanes, etc have only begun to occur since their own birth. Just today news viewers are being treated to the horror of Greensberg, Kansas which was destroyed by a tornado on Friday. Yet during the coverage it was barely reported that it has been nearly 60 years since a similar event occurred. The populists of climate change will claim that the force of the tornado was caused by Global Warming.

The self-appointed high priests of Climate Change preach a do as I say, not as I do theology. As in any religion the ultimate goal is control of the members. The Al Gore's, Laura David, and Sheryl Crow's of this movement consume large amounts of energy through the use of private jets, large vehicles, gigantic houses that suck up electricity while admonishing the rest of the world to conserve.

This religion even has its own set of indulgences: the carbon offset credit. All energy consumption sins are forgiven by the purchase of a carbon offset; which in itself is nothing more than a modern version of the Emperor's New Clothes. Carbon offsets were originally developed as a loophole for energy producers to avoid penalties for not reaching the anti-pollution targets. In the beginning power company A could purchase government tax credits from power company B. This helped A when it didn't want to spend capital upgrading its plant. Power company B got credit for doing so and allowed to sell credits to earn income.


Now the situation is taking on the trappings of mysticism and morality plays. Like pieces of the true cross or saints bones movies, books, and songs are being published and distributed to hype the idea that climate change is real and that mankind is to blame. Nothing could be more ridiculous given the size of even Earth's small universe. The Climate Change Pope, Al Gore, is being anointed in the form of a Nobel Prize nomination. When it comes to Global Warming there is a pressing need for more atheists.

Liberal Outrage Over VT Shooting

If the situation weren't so difficult the liberals reaction to this shooting would be laughable. Chris Matthews made a statement last night that was so ridiculous that is was stunning in its arrogance. "Its as easy to buy a gun in Virginia as it is to buy a pizza." What a pompous ass, though the obvious needs no reiteration. The larger question is what are these media hotheads upset about?

These are the same self-appointed geniuses who support all forms of abortion including partial birth abortions. They oppose the possession of firearms by anyone but themselves. Again this is the Platonic legacy discussed a couple of days ago. Only the superior are able to govern others and further they shall not be subject to criticism rather they will do the commentary themselves about others.

This column does not support the death penalty; instead it proposes the building of enormous, remotely situated prisons where those convicted of murder may be housed until their richly deserved deaths. This plan would actually be a living death as no contact with the outside world would be permitted and no parole possible.

The shootings at Virginia Tech is a symptom of a self- indulgent culture. It is a culture that makes possible the consideration of taking one's own misery out on others. Suicide is every one's option but the self serving murder of others and then killing one's self is cowardly and despicable. Yet soon there will be books, movies, and perhaps recording glorifying such and act.

Today the US Supreme court outlawed partial birth abortion; undoubtedly the talking heads will be out in full force. Their only problem will be deciding when to go after guns or after the supreme court.

Platonism Realized: Again

Plato would have a lot to answer for should he still be living. His ideas have reached through the ages and find themselves alive and well in today's liberal antics.

Plato posited the theory that while all citizens are useful to the state only a certain few were worthy of ruling. These few, harking back to Plato's own family of dictators, were the elite of society; cultured, educated, wealthy, intellectual and above the fray when it came to physical work. If this sounds familiar it is because that is the mantra of the Democrat party today. From John Kerry , Ted Kennedy, to Hillary Clinton the idea is that the ordinary American is too stupid to be trusted with government. Only the Democrats and their lackeys are considered fit to function.

This ideology is nothing new Platonism spawned monarchies, oligarchies, communism, Nazism, fascism, and now modern liberal thought and action. Plato thought that any art that criticized the governing class should be banned on the grounds that such criticism is inherently subversive. Today's liberals feel the same way: there can be no argument with their ideas because, as superior individuals, they are naturally correct and can not be wrong.

This approach to governance is the same as Marxism et al with only minor variations. This is the reason that the loss of the Presidency in 2000 was deemed illegal; no party is allowed to exercise power except the Democrat Party. Confusion reigned as the lower classes usurped the logical, rightful rulers. In 2007 it appears that the universe is about to right itself as Hillary Clinton seems destined for the presidency.

It is well to remember that most of the failed dictatorships in the 20th century all had the word Democratic in there somewhere; The Democratic Peoples Republic of Germany as an example. The electorate should be wary of such titles which quietly delude people into thinking of a participatory government. Today's Democrats are Orwellian in their use of doublespeak demanding their right to be heard while stifling all other debate.

Plato be damned.

It's All Very Tiring

The recent uproar over Don Imus is rather silly. Where was the outrage when Richard Pryor jump started this downward spiral? It's sad but true that the average person thinks the world began when they were born; most people have no sense of historical or social perspective. Before Richard Pryor got going the most outlandish humorist was Lenny Bruce and he was hounded to his death because of his views.

After Richard Pryor got started the floodgates opened spewing foul language, racial and ethnic slurs from such notables as Eddie Murphy, Cedric the Entertainer, Chris Rock and a multitude of lesser lights. Oh the jokes were hilarious especially if you enjoy the terms nigger, bitch, ho, cracker, spick, and sexual references. Very funny indeed.

Of course hip hop lyrics were the next logical progression so why not? Things got so out of hand that Al and Tipper Gore, (remember Al Gore) got legislation passed that required warning labels on records and CDs. That was during the 1980s; my how time flies. Was this condition of American culture simply a result of outrage against the conditions of virtual apartheid that existed well into the 1970's? Such a thing might be expected after a couple of centuries of slavery and repression, but if it is the case how does one explain the acceptance of Emimim?

Don Imus is an idiotic badly behaved person whom society rewarded handsomely for being exactly that. Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton are basically extornists and self appointed world representatives of the African-American component of the United States. They have no shame and very little personal morality based on their public behavior. The majority of the US is afraid to confront these two clownish actors because whites cannot criticize blacks. As an example take the recent Duke Lacrosse team fiasco in Durham, North Carolina. Jackson and Sharpton were in the vanguard of the virtual lynching of the accused, a nice irony, and now that the entire case has been shown to be a complete lie they refuse to apologize for their actions and comments. Why is this the case?

Most likely it will take many more years for the racist social wounds to heal in the USA but at least some are trying; though the "Black leadership" is not among them. Hurricane Katrina is blamed on George Bush; Ray Nagin is not assigned any responsibility for his failure to lead his city. The majority of black politicians are quick to play the race card to absolve themselves from simple human failures when they are caught.

It is not all right for one African-American to call another African-American a nigger. This expression is common; so much so that it goes practically unnoticed. This acceptance of demeaning speech within the "hood" and the use of the "race card" robs the African-American population of its humanity, reducing them to mere cartoon characters. This is the true tragedy of the Don Imus case.

This is a liberal problem you will never hear a conservative talk show host use language of this sort.

Conspiracy Theories and Political Damage

How to comprehend the apparent insanity of the conspiracy theories on the left, and to a limited extent on the right? The best way of course is in the context of psychiatric treatment for those that espouse such nonsense. From another view there is the clear assumption that those who spout these ideas are not only confused but imbued with the feeling that as they are superior beings, the rest of the population is simply in the dark.

Of course the real purpose of such prattlings is to do political damage to the Bush Administration and to present the Democrat or liberal ideas as reasonable. But does this actually work? The 9/11 attack came roughly nine months after Bush's inauguration; was that time enough to put such a plan in place and execute it? The basis for the theories is apparently the failure of the building materials to withstand the severe heat of the fire engendered by the fuel explosion. This from the same people who espouse radical climate change ideas; putting forth the proposition that building materials used in the 1970's should remain immutable against extreme heat in 2001. One has to wonder about the competence of such individuals.

Further should one take seriously the idea that the United States Government is at the bottom of the attack then one must look at the Clinton Administration as the culprit. This of course is ridiculous but using the logic of the theorists certainly apt. For years the public has been treated to the idea of the stupidity and incompetence of the Bush administration; it is liberal dogma that the Republicans are completely incapable of rational action or successful completion of any project. Only liberals and democrats are capable of such acts.

This being so where then can the blame lie for the 9/11 attacks if not at the hands of Al-Queada? Logically the only force able to plan and execute such a complex action was the Clinton White House. Were the documents destroyed by Sandy Berger the actual planning documents? Was Al Gore to use these attacks as a way of apologizing to the Islamofascists for the "excesses" of the United States? Arthur Schulzberger jr. made such a statement to college students at a commencement address this year. Schulzberger is the publisher and owner of the New York Times newspaper and certainly not a fan of the USA.

Those who would absolve Bin Laden, even after his admission, are simply too childish to realize the full implications of their ideas. Only their chosen representatives would have the intelligence, the time, and the motive to cause such a disaster. Liberals like to think of themselves as worldly but in fact they are incredibly naive and unaware of the rest of the world.
The Hollywood nuts can be forgiven simply enough on the basis of the heavy medication most of them are on. What Rosie and Martin must be taking would embarrass Rush Limbaugh.

Rosie and Martin Thank God for Them

Rosie O'Donnell is the best example of stupidity being paid for stirring the pot. Unfortunately it appears that Rosie actually believes what she says. Her latest foray into the world of original ideas is that terrorists shouldn't be feared because they are mothers and fathers too. This is on top of her assertion that the United States Government is responsible for the attack on the world trade center and that the Iranian abduction of British military personnel is somehow similar to the Gulf of Tonkin Incident.

One might agree on a certain level that terrorists are not to be feared, a certain wariness is appropriate, but any terrorist caught in the act should be killed; mother or father notwithstanding. Fearing terrorism gives it a partial victory ignoring it or pretending terrror is without malevolence is stupid. Rosie O'Donnell and Martin Sheen are prime examples of the shallowness and downright gullibility of people who are insulated from reality by their warped egos and synchophantic lives.

Even the admission of the actual planner of the World Trade Operation and that of Bin Laden as the excutioner has fallen on deaf ears in LA LA Land. These are the people that the voters of the United States want to lead the nation what a joke. These are the same type of believers who sell all their posessions and head for the mountain top waiting for the end of the world. Climate change, conspiracy theories, tremendous rage and hatred for their fellow citizens, coupled with severe national inferiority complex are the hall marks of today's liberals.

Visit any liberal blog and you will find regurgitated opinion from the likes of Bill Maher, Al Frankenheimer, et al, expressed using profanity and hopes for the deaths of fellow human beings. All this from those who profess to only love and have no experience with hate yet they wish for the deaths of Tony Snow, Dick Cheney, and George Bush.

Their lack of substantive thought is masked, in their minds, by the shrillness of expression. Sound and fury but no light.

Liberal Ecstasy

Can any day in recent memory be more joyful to the left wing crazies? Today is their RED LETTER Day. Scooter Libby, former attorney for Marc Rich, was convicted on four out of five counts of obstruction of justice. Of course the media and the Democrats have construed this as a condemnation of the Iraq war, as if they needed another one, and have exalted Mr. and Mrs. Joe Wilson.

Forget the facts of the matter, that Richard Armitage outed Valerie (Plame) Wilson and that there was no case to pursue. Rather use the logic of Joseph Goebbels and tell the biggest lie possible guaranteeing that at least part of it will be accepted by the gullible general public. The American public is the biggest loser as the justice system continues to take hits to its credibility.

One might be reminded of 15th and 16th Royal Houses of Europe when considering the current state of politics in the United States. Certainly there are no dynasties, well except for the Clinton and Bush ones, but today's politicians are more concerned with jailing their opposition than actually proposing some solutions for the real problems facing the nation. It is doubtful that George Bush will have the courage to pardon Mr. Libby as he has apparently completely lost his way.

The lunacy evidenced in American political life might be dispriting if not for the literary history of the nation. From Mark Twain to H.L. Mencken we are assured that things might be more obvious but not so different today. The uber libs are juvenile delingquents in their behavior. Asserting their moral and intellectual superiority while publicly wishing for the death of another human being and fellow citizen; Dick Cheney. At the same time one of the left wing gods, George Soros, is investing millions in shares of Halliburton. He now owns two percent of the company. It might be supposed that his actions are for the good of the company and not simply to recoup the millions he lost supporing MoveOn.org.

The nation is indeed adrift with no reasonable leader emerging on either side of the spectrum. Hillary is attempting to be blacker than Obama while he is trying to simply be black. What a world.

Organized Religion Inherently Fascist?

In the NEWS today, among other inane actions, is the assertion on the American left that Christian Fundamentalists are Fascists. Examination of that claim barely stands up, though some irrelevant parrallels might be drawn. Fascism has become a buzz word for anyone who may oppose or disagree with the loony left, or even the not so loony left; but what is it?

Fascism was founded by Benito Mussolini in Italy during the early 20th century. Originally a Marxist, Mussolini became disenchanted with Soviet communism soon after the First World War. His party, the Fascists sometimes known as the Black Shirts, succeeded to power through the electoral process. This was the model Adolf Hitler would follow a decade later. The Italian Fascists were considered right wing because Mussolini disapproved of the Marxist model this corruption of language persists to this day. The Fascists take their name from a symbol of ancient Rome the fasces which is two bundles of wood faced by two wood axes.

The Fascists in Rome, Germany, and Spain were essentially socialists and demanded that the individual link his identity with that of the state. This is sometimes called "corporateism" from the root corporeal or body. This linkage eliminates capitalism which is a celebration of individualism making Fascism itself a rather weak version of Marxism. Fascists and Communists became deadly enemies not over ideology but for political power.

In Russia this power resulted in the deaths of some 30 million citizens starved as their farms and produce were seized to feed the workers in Stalins industrialization effort. In Germany this power resulted in the deaths of 6 million Jews, mostly Polish, and hundreds of thousands of others. Italian Fascism became the model corporate state where everything worked except the people, its national ambitions resulted in the subjugation of Eithopia in an attempt to reestablish the Roman Empire.

Spain became the battle ground for these competing states with Russia supporting the Spanish communists (ironically known as Republicans) while Germany and Italy supported Franco their dictatorial comrade in arms. Thus came about the left vs. right paradigm.

In the US today the left are still communists cum socialists whose modern heros are Fidel Castro, Hugo Chavez, Al Gore, and Hillary Clinton; all Marxists of the first water. So here come the attacks on their opponents using pejoratives without thinking. It is apparently a must that any Republican leader is a direct if not genetic descendant of Adolf Hitler: a misnomer if ever there was one. Flailing out with accusations does not make the accusation true or even worthy of consideration.

The latest shot is a book claiming to document the case against evangelical Christians as Fascists. This column has accused certain Muslims of Islamofascism and here is why. Fascism as a corporate or single body ideology demands that the individual give himself for the group and that the group or corporation is the highest manifestion of that particular ideology. In this regard all religions are fascist in nature as they are all socialistic in nature.

Shared values are not always those of violence and that is where the distinction and the differences part ways. The Soviet Union, Italy, Germany, and Islam assert their right to conquer those infidels that get in the way of righteousness, the Motherland, the Fatherland, or whatever symbol is needed to motivate the cannon fodder.

The American left is so morally destitute that today they cannot distingquish between Fidel and Hugo's ruinous grip on their countries from the freedoms enjoyed in the United States. It's too bad that these people have never had to fight for the freedoms they enjoy, but it is also wonderful that they had the choice.

The Problem With Lineal Thinking

Lineal thinking is a common fault among human beings. The reason is quite simple; no real thought is required. This phenomenom is manifested by sports writers, liberals, some conservatives, and it is particularly true of those who espouse "Global Warming" as truth. Lineal thinking makes upsets in sports possible, at least in terms of predictions, as forecasters invariably rely on the teams with the most "rings" as favorites. This method ignores the natural progression of gain and loss by franchises which frequently renders the number of past championships irrelevant.

In politics lineal thinking is best demonstrated by the continued endorsement of failed Marxist ideas by the political left. These people feel guilty because they have prosperity, mostly unearned, and don't want to face the"poor". The idea that every one is created equal in terms of ability and intellect is patently false and not really believed by those who spout such ideals. Equality begins and ends at the starting gate, the race will go to those who are prepared and skilled.

As for "Global Warming" the idea is so fatuous that on this morning's news shows the weather is the predominant story. The snow, in winter, is a large surprise. The polar ice packs' expansion is a mystery to liberals, but not to those who expect it every winter, and the antarctic's freezing seems to confuse the theorists. Nature is not a constant except that it is constantly changing. It is a problem for those who think things should remain the same as their lives are the only ones that count despite the preceeding milennia.

The original idea behind climate change was a hypothesis that wondered about the impact of hydroflurocarbons on the ozone. Now it is a full blown hoax with a thousand year timeline that makes it impossible to measure in the current human life span. Al Gore is a charlatan of the first water as is Jimmy Carter with George Bush coming in a close third. None of these individuals could care less about their fellow man; only their self agranddisement matters.

The lemmings that make up most of the world's population get what they voted for so no complaints are accepted here.

Seeking Equilibrium

The human race is always seeking equilibrium. This means that most people want little or no change in their lives. The primary example today is the mass hysteria called Global Warming. Yesterday the UN, the world arbiter of ethics and intellect, issued a report stating that there is a 90% possiblity that global warming or climate change is caused by human activity. While this assertion won't pass the laugh test it is being taken seriously by those who prefer to live in fear rather than enjoy the short life span allotted to all.

On top of the ridiculous weeping and gnashing of teeth, Al Gore has been nominated for the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize further trivializing such institutions. The most telling aspect of the UN declaration is the "90% possibility" which means that there is still much uncertainty regarding the existence of the situation. How many people would travel aboard an airplane with only a 90% possiblity of a safe landing? Do the math. If only 90% of daily aircraft take off and landings were the case then there would be 100,000 crashes out of every 1 million operations.

The most insulting part of the entire controversy is the idea that 6 billion human beings can have a larger impact on the universe than any other consideration. The UN panel predicts another 1000 years of climate warming yet the daily weather can not be forecast with much accuracy. The local weather yesterday and today was supposed to be heavy snow and ice with freezing rain. It did flurry and rain but no ice.

Because humans don't live very long there is a tendency to think the present is the past and future. As the earth cycles around the sun it is not in a static environment. The sun gets warmer and cooler, volcanoes erupt, the earth is either closer or further away from the sun's influence, the moon exerts a pull on the earth's oceans. All of these phenomena are natural and cause change on the earth. Climate will only continue for a thousand year if the earth explodes, or is destroyed by a meteor shower or some or silly proposition. Otherwise climate change will continue forever; warming and cooling.

Time For Marches

Anyone observing the "Peace" demonstrations or rallies this weekend could only be struck by the small number of participants, the relative agedness and the same old tired leadership. Of course there were the usual rowdies who follow such events when there are no tail gate parties happening. The expected terrorist wannabes, with ski masks cloaking their identities, marching in ragged formation like some romper room Hamas members made their appearance.

It is dispiriting to see such activities promoted with so little originality; even down to spitting on a disabled soldier. These people are stuck in a time warp so vague that they have no real notion of what they are about. The old "hippies" are still protesting against Vietnam and the draft; both Democrat Party boondogles. They accuse the present government of lying to get into war when that is actually what President Johnson did with the Gulf of Tonkin resolution. They want to "bring our soldiers home where they will be safe" as the spit on the soldiers who do come home. This is a famous Vietnam era tactic to shame "baby killers". Demonstrators for Peace think nothing of destroying property or injuring others in the quest for an existenial answer. Even bringing back Jane Fonda won't make life more real, but rather surreal.

Jane Fonda, a traitor of the first water, is now feeling forgiven; but she never can or will be. During the 1960's high school graduates, boys of 18, and men from 20 to 36 could be and were drafted to fill the US military's ranks. Kennedy, and Johnson thought nothing of using this tool as an instrument of policy it was natural. The early protests, while vocal were small until Dr. King lent his moral authority to the fray. At that point the civil rights and anti war forces were joined bringing all social types together. The Vietnam war like the Iraq war was fought politically with an effort to be sensitive about killing or injuring civilians. Nothing could be worse for winning a war.

So today the world is treated to spectacle of destructive, rude, poorly educated masses demonstrating their lack of manners and intellect in a pathetic effort to prove that they are alive. This is analagous to PETA protecting animals while killing them in secret.

Global Warming or Climate Change

This blog is fulfilling its mission as it is disturbing some, and provoking thought in others. The fact that scientific consensus is not science does not deter the adherents of so called global warming. That this is a topic near and dear to many is not surprising everyone needs a reason to get up in the morning, liberals more than most, so this "science" is as good as the next thing. Perhaps the homeless advocates would prefer a warmer environment for their clients but it just isn't going to happen.

In the United States the population lost its raison d'etre during the 1960's. During that time controls were loosened to the extent that the need for them was lost. Today on the Laura Ingraham program was a lost soul from that period. Still hating her country still hoping for a Marxist solution to her life. The top ten polluted spots on earth are in Russia, China, India, and the Czech Republic of which only Russia is a Kyoto signatory. Sign anything but give them nothing seems to be the motto of the former Soviet Union; don't be surprised if like AT&T they reclaim their satellites.

One reader commented that today's global warming cannot be compared to the end of the Ice Age. Why not? Is it possible that natural processes stop just because the uber-gauche prefer that this should be the case? Of course today's warming trend is a continuation of what occurred 18,000 years ago if it weren't we would be experiencing global cooling (which was predicted by climatologists during the 1980s). Without doubt humankind is having an impact on the trend there are more people and animals breathing than ever before.

It cannot be known until after the fact if the current accelerated warming trend will be bad or good. What is known is that consensus science is purely theoretical and not axiomatic

Pilgrims Progress

This will be an ongoing discussion published from time to time until Islam takes over completely and all such publication is stopped. Just kidding, in keeping with the last article about Islamofascist pilgrims. They are making progress against the civilization and culture of the infidels. An example of this is the recent that the Chinese government has made regarding the New Year. For the first time in recorded history a chinese government, be it imperial, warlord, or communist, has deferred to a cultural sub-set within its borders.

This is the Year of the Pig, one of the chinese astrological signs that rotate as annual designations, and because Muslims consider the pig unclean no special reference or celebration is permitted in China this year. Earlier the point was made that these pioneering Muslims are finding themselves in a precarious position but are determined to bring the infidels home to Allah or kill them.

When considering the Chinese government's concession to Islam one must consider the numbers. More than a billion people consider themselves Chinese citizens living in China. Even if there were 200 million Muslims, which there are not, the number would still be small, even minute. So what is the government afraid will happen? This decision to down play the Year of the Pig is a major action. These annual designations have been in place for all of Chinese history, which in itself is considerable and much older than Islam. It is now likely that the pig will be completely displaced and some other animal will take its place.

What other changes are in store for those who will not take a stand and fight for their own cultural heritage. Will National Islamic Television have special months like National Christian Culture Month to remind its viewers of the contributions Christianity made even if Christianity has been made irrelevant?

Modern Day Pilgrims

One might consider today's Islamofascist immigrants, legal and illegal, as modern day pilgrims. Once they reach the shores of Europe, South America, Asia, and the United States they survey the territory with hope and dismay. All around them they see abundance and opportunity all provided for them by Allah. They also see this abundance in the possession of infidels; an insult to Allah and Islam. Beyond that these infidels are barbarians in need of conversion to Islam so that their souls might be saved.

All around these brave immigrants are examples of murder, abortion, drunkeness, incest, profanity, adultery, homosexuality, disrepect of men by women, women brazenly exposing their flesh, pornography, and the list goes on the primary offense being a lack of true faith. Is it such a surprise that these pioneers would take it upon themselves to subjugate the land and bring its inhabitants into the true faith? The methods are irrelevant because the end is so just. Why should infidels be so blessed when Allah's children are often poverty stricken? Why should true believers suffer at the hands of savages? The obvious answer is that Allah has led them to the promised land and it is their obligation to take it in hand.

This is the reason for rapid mosque and madrasa construction around the world, in particular Europe and the United States. It is the reason money is sent to the Old Country to fund new immigration and weapons for use against the savages who refuse to convert. It is the reason that Muslim women police officers in England refuse to shake hands with the male chief during a graduation ceremony as it violates the tenets of the true faith. Pioneers in the wilderness must endure considerable hardships; and today's Islamic pilgrims are no exception.

In today's world the savages have a chance to present a united front but it seems likely that the same political problems that beset the Native American population will also weaken or destroy today's natives. During the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries the Native Americans were unable to overcome their own internal disputes to expel the Christian invaders. So might it be in a disunited America each province embracing differing ideas of what makes the nation.

One thing is certain the Islamofacists are united, determined, and will persevere.
