Why were the accusations about President Bush’s National Guard Service accepted as true yet the Zarqawi memos and letters disdained immediately by the left? I’ve been giving this a little more thought and have concluded that, like children waiting for Santa Claus, the ultra-libs are simply too immature to understand grown up life. Even if they are 50, 60, or like my parents 80, they either maintain or revert to a naiveté that is wonderful.
A woman must have the right to an abortion, but no murderers can be killed by a legal death sentence. So called reproductive rights is merely another term for irresponsibility. Personally I don’t think we should execute convicted criminals; it coarsens society and is too easy on the murderers. There is also the possibility of innocence being punished instead of the guilty. A random act of sexual intercourse should also not condemn a life to death.
Conspiracy fetish believers are just that, low intellectual powers, easily led, obsessed and stimulated by fancies that make them feel somehow important because they are in possession of the “real” story. The Zarqawi memos should be assumed to be genuine if only because of the circumstances of his death. Clearly when a leader’s own people turn on him things can’t be going too well. The mainstream Democrats are another story. They don’t care if the memos are real or not; their very existence threatens the Democrats chance to regain power in the congress and the White House. These people care nothing for their fellow citizens and are as close to communists as you can get. When they do return to power, as they will eventually, Hugo Chavez will most likely be the first State visitor.
The proof that the liberals are really illiberal may be inferred by their love of Castro, Chavez, and Fox. Each of these leaders imprisons, without trial, any dissenters. This, of course, is what Michael Moore, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Barbara Streisand, and the rest would like to do to those who disagree with them.

Conspiracy Nuts Are Loose Again
Well the conspiracy freaks are out in force. They, and their left wing nutjobs, want the United States to dissolve in ignominy so much that they can’t see themselves. The latest is the Zarqawi memo saying that he was having a tough time with the Americans; they want failure so desperately that they have concluded that it is a fake. It is a fake because it contradicts their view of not only how things are going, but how things should go against the USA which is the bane of the universe. Of course they can say and think anything they want in the USA, but I wonder how it would play out in Saudi Arabia where the death penalty is required for homosexuality, blasphemy, adultery, drug use, speaking out against the government and a variety of other liberal habits.
I actually enjoy their stupidity and the intransigent desire for American failure anywhere. The Democrats are ridiculous, and I am a still a registered Democrat as I have been since the age of 21. At that time the voting age was set at that level. My party has left me behind. I now have no party allegiance and vote on issues not personalities. The liberals are hilarious because they consider themselves the only people with intelligence. Of course their guilt feelings and self-hatred don’t seem to encourage them to leave the safety of the United States and go to the trouble spots to render aid.
Watch this space more to come.

Nuts On The Loose
The momentous events of recent days, including Zarqawi’s death have revealed left wing kooks and UN deceivers for what they are. The far left propaganda machine is in high gear and railing against heaven for these disasters to their cause. Their behavior is so childish that it would be funny if only it weren’t so serious. They can’t get off the global warming bandwagon, Kofi Anan is demanding an investigation into the killing of Zarqawi, one of our most bitter enemies, and Harry Reid is getting sleazier than ever.
The United States is divided between those who want a stable capitalist society and those who hope to bring an extreme form of socialism to bear. If the Moveon.org crowd are elected it will be interesting to see how far they can get. My guess is that confistacatory taxation, new government agencies to employ their followers and to control the rest of us will be the order of the day.
Of course there will be no defending our vital interests let alone our national sovereignty. These people obviously hate themselves and their fellow citizens. Their intellectual and moral capacity is very limited as evidenced by their statements. Bill Clinton is now blaming Republicans for the weather and his followers believe it.
If this behavior wasn’t so stupid it would be really discouraging. I am betting that the majority of US voters won’t be duped but you never know.

A Blow to Democrats and Terrorists
Today the Democrat Party and the Iraqi terror organization suffered a severe setback: Al-Zarqawi was killed by US troops yesterday afternoon. This action will buoy the spirits of the American public, cast the Democrat’s defeatism into stark relief, and demonstrate that when in trouble one should never give up just because fatigue sets in. This is indeed a happy day and it is fortunate that this murderer was killed and not arrested. Imagine the nightmare of liberal law groups apologizing for Zarqawi’s behavior and defending him as a misunderstood leader of lawful insurgents. Ramsey Clark must be feeling left out this morning.
Ah, the ACLU’s disappointment is palpable; Tim Robbins and Sean Penn cannot believe that one of their heroes has departed the world stage. Who can they idolize? Well Castro, Chavez, and Vicente Fox are still around. This event gives everyone some breathing room, everyone except Osama Bin Laden he must be a little shaken. It can be imagined that even the Iranians will take a brief pause to consider the historical inevitability of their proposed actions.
The relief that will be felt will of course be short-lived, but it does give hope that an end can be achieved; the successful democratization of Iraq and other Arab nations. That cultural hatred may be overcome, that death and destruction don’t have to triumph over hope and love.
Surely even Ted Kennedy, John Murtha, Nancy Pelosi; Chuck Hegel et al. can understand these sentiments.

Tolerance
Tolerance is a virtue preached by many but observed by few. Fundamentalists of any stripe are almost by definition intolerant, and their rationale is based mostly on fear. Fundamentalist UFO observers will not tolerate nor consider another view; they are correct and that is that. The same goes for liberal Hollywood, homophobic Baptists, narrow minded Roman Catholics, Islamic western haters, and in US politics nut cases on the right and left.
The terms used to describe the best courses of action include exterminate, eliminate, destroy, “death to,” and many others heard daily on chat shows and news programs. So called intellectuals including Noam Chomsky, Thomas Friedman, are actually cowardly commentators with an ostrich-like approach to the world’s problems. When Islam takes over things will change drastically and not for the better.
Can Islam overwhelm Western Civilization? Of course it can and it is likely that it will if the liberal, progressive part of the nations continues their present behavior. At least there will no longer be worries about Christian symbols in public buildings. Everyone will either be a Muslim or dead. There will be no question of gay marriage, pornography, elections, the only option for dissent will be whether Shia, Sunni, of Sufi is the mosque you attend.
Simply look around and make a note of each incident of intolerance you encounter or promote; was it helpful?

Kofi Anan A Thinking Man's Moron
I just finished reading Kofi Anan’s latest editorial in the Wall Street Journal. Why the United States still tolerates such a man and such an organization is a mystery to me. What he wrote is so cynically aimed at the US that one must gasp at the audacity. He is a total hypocrite.
In the article he praises migration and puts its inevitability down to the establishment of national borders. This of course is absurd. Does he mean the have never been migrations until borders were established? He goes on to extol the virtues of migration to the host countries that benefit greatly from the assimilation of the “irregular migrants.” Is he referring to France, Germany, Britain, China, India, Pakistan, Iran, Venezuela, Mexico; or just the United States of America? The USA is virtually the only nation that assimilates newcomers so that by the second or third generation the home country is only a distant memory drawn from conversations with elders.
Kofi also mentions the benefits to the home country of the billions of dollars sent home. This is probably closer to the mark as places like Mexico do little to stimulate an economy that will encourage those born there to stay there. Oh yes Anan does mention the downside to the home country: the loss of skilled workers. A more cynical attack on the rights of US citizens to determine their own laws in the area of immigration could not be made. The article reads like a homily from Ted Kennedy’s staff.
Kofi Anan says that UN policy will encourage continued “irregular migration” though the receiving countries are unnamed, and that while no nation will be asked to give up its border sovereignty all nations will be encouraged to accept more migrants. What a joke.
His concluding line is the ripest of all. He contends that as long as there are borders there will be migration. What genius wrote this for him, and how could he approve it? From time immemorial migrations have occurred as the result of war, famine, pestilence, and many other causes. The one thing that has never encouraged migration is the recognition by a tribe or group of people that a new border had been established and that it might be fun to violate it.

Gay Marriage No Amendment Needed
Gay Marriage: That designation is the first problem to resolve in taking on the issue of what marriage is and who cares. I could care less if men want to kiss and have some kind of sex life with other men, and I feel the same way about women who have homosexual urges. The sex acts are not the issue. The problem that should be addressed is making sure that birth rates increase and those healthy families raise children to healthy adulthood.
If one has to define a state of being with a qualifier then the assumption can be made that it is derivative and probably not as strong as the original. What is needed for homosexuals is a legal method to own and transfer property, which what this controversy is really all about. Love, sex, adultery, swingers, are all part of marriage but not part of the legal system that supports it. Homosexuals are notoriously promiscuous as a group, though there are many swans among the goats; it is possible that a legal framework that benefits homosexuals as a group and society as a whole would moderate this behavior.
There is no heterosexual marriage, only marriage. This is a social norm in all societies, even Mormons, that has made it possible to have a civilization no matter what the culture. In Muslim cultures the threat of homosexuality to society is seen as so great that the penalty for “We’re Queer and We’re Here” is death. Western Civilization has long tolerated homosexuality and even celebrated it, along with pedophilia and other questionable practices. That this is so today is made obvious every day by television newscasts of some pertinent event or other.
The tactic we are seeing is the same as most liberal causes, first the guilt trip then the legal codification of whatever is being promoted. This is true for smoking, drinking, eating, driving, cutting down a tree, and all the other joys of life that have been attenuated by the left wing seekers of immortality. Honesty is not a hallmark of such agendas, so let’s start now.
Who a person is having sex with, excepting children, acts of violence, and the mentally incompetent, should not a factor that restricts their ability to be a productive member of society and they should have all the legal property rights the rest of the group enjoys. There is one condition that is objectionable and that is the adoption of children by homosexuals. That is an area that should be forbidden. Homosexuals cannot reproduce without some outside agency’s intervention; there is a reason for that and it should obvious and left that way.
Iraq: Now What
Watching action, adventure, or spy films these days is equivalent to being a fan of pornography. It is all fantasy and the real thing is much better or worse depending on the genre and one’s predilections. The action hero always wins and the porn stars are really acrobats. With the war in Iraq winding down to a contest between the US and IED’s on the one hand, and the Wahabbi Sunni’s versus everyone else on the other, death, destruction, and horror have lost their power to do anything other than frustrate.
That the attack on Iraq by the United States was ill-advised, poorly planned, and over assumed is obvious now. At the time there were signs that such might be the case but they were too vague in the circumstances surrounding 9/11 to gain much traction. In the end it will be the bane of George Bush’s historical perspective despite all the good things he has done in the past 6 years. He now seems to be running out of gas.
Paul Wolfowitz and Donald Rumsfeld seem to have underestimated the difficulty in subduing a few Arabs in Iraq, which is certain to have been their early assessment of the problem. Even the Democrats thought so at first and were screaming in pain that Iraq was a political war that would eliminate them from power for years to come. Now, of course, they love the war as it puts them in the best position to supplant the Republicans in recent years. The United States economy is doing well, the Democrats are on the wrong side of illegal immigration, abortion, gay marriage, taxes, and a host of other issues. The war, which is not even a war anymore, is the one issue that might give them the edge.
The American people are tired of sacrificing their children for the freedom of people who don’t want it and who are unwilling to help fight for it. The attitude in the USA is becoming one of “Let them (the Iraqis) kill each other to their hearts content.” This attitude has nothing to do with the vacuous Hollywood anti-war nuts, this is a judgment based on three years of work with little to show for it.
Rumsfeld and Wolfowitz will most likely bear a large share of the historical disdain for today’s situation; Bush will bear the rest.

Haditha
“War crime” is an oxymoron as war by definition encourages bad behavior. We don’t know yet what happened at Haditha but the rumor and propaganda is already out of hand. I don’t condone anyone killing civilians deliberately and I understand how it can happen accidentally especially considering the Iraqi situation. Of course no one cares about Sunnis murdering Shiites, or Kurds killing Arabs, or Arabs killing blacks in Darfur, but don’t let the USA even have a small mistake and the world will jump on it promptly.
The citizens of the United States have a right to armed forces that can behave properly, and I think we do. In every group there will be people who can not stand up to the stress of being shot at from various angles and combatants that look like civilians. The fact that the armed forces are going to retrain their members in the ethics of warfare is ridiculous. While good behavior must be constantly reinforced, if the training didn’t take effect when initially given it probably never will.
The most disturbing thing about Haditha, beyond the obvious, is that Marine Corps officers would lie rather than discipline their troops. This abdication of responsibility is a more troubling aspect of the problem than simply a public relations one. It seems to indicate a breakdown of morale, stemming from frustration of combat and lack of societal support from home, which could bear bitter fruit. The last thing the United States needs is more self-hating liberals who tar everyone, but themselves, with the same brush.
The Vietnam debacle is and was overdone in the press and society. Those soldiers were doing what the country, most of us, wanted. Oh, today we deny it, but I was there at the time and remember quite well what happened. The main reason for student outrage was the draft. Today’s military is purely voluntary and though some deny it, everyone knows what they are signing up to do. Thank God they do sign up.
Even one atrocity can not be tolerated but it can be put in perspective.

Wackos on the Move
I see the nutjobs on the left are at it again. Al Gore just can’t get over himself. I have come to the conclusion that what makes a liberal, in part, is outrage over the fact that each life has a beginning and an end. This explains their dictating to the rest of us how to live; because they don’t plan to die. No smoking, no obesity, no speeding, wear a seatbelt, worry about global warming, blame America for the faults of other nations, feel guilty about your prosperity, give in to anyone who seems angry with you, it was somehow your fault anyway.
The latest effort by Al Gore to scare us is a failure. “An Inconvenient Truth” is anything but and it may in fact become an inconvenient flop. That the earth is warming is a given, that mankind is causing is not certain. The earth is hot inside, volcanic eruptions prove this, the earth has been around for billions of years, mankind only a few million. It is unlikely that mankind will be here in even a million years: the earth will be. This inconvenient truth is what is angering the wacko left. The fact that human beings are not the most important things in the universe is anathema to them.
Every liberal knows what is best for you, better than you do. We have seen this play out in Cuba and will soon see it in Venezuela and Bolivia. All these places will self destruct as did the Soviet Union and as Russia is doing now. You think you should be able to do what you think is best for you? Don’t be ridiculous, only intellectuals know what is best for you. Why do you think there is a term for “The Common Man”? The intellectual a social elites feel that they occupy the other side “The Uncommon Man.” Believe me when I tell you that nothing could be further from the truth. I know these people well and there are some uncommon people among them, but most are very common with large bank accounts and phony degrees in things like Education, Women’s Studies, Economics, Sociology, and the like.
We must simply tolerate their behavior, childish as it is, because that’s how you give children the confidence to grow up.

Fox Go Home
Vicente Fox is advising the US on economic policy; this is laughable. Mr. Fox can’t get his own economy going fast enough to keep his citizens home. Mexico is one of the wealthiest nations in the Western Hemisphere in terms of natural resources and human capital. It is also one of the most, if not the most, corrupt nations anywhere. The word hypocrisy is too weak to describe the policies, laws, and attitudes of the Mexican people. That’s correct the people because as a democracy the people are responsible for the policies and practices that govern them.
If Mexico allowed more foreign investment the stream of immigrants to the United States would dwindle to only those who really want to live here. The best workers are leaving Mexico so why doesn’t that nation want to retain them? It would mean that the culture of bribery, deceit, and procrastination would have to change. Can such a thing happen?
Mexican laws against US participation in their economy are stringent and crippling. Any American investor that behaves as he must to succeed in Mexico is most likely in violation of US anti-bribery laws and might end up in prison. That is a risk that some take but that most won’t. The ultra rich of Mexico and all Latin American countries do not want change. The Patron culture has failed the nations but benefited the families of the rich. Their biggest risk is having to pay a ransom, quite common in those societies. The United States gets the criminals, the down trodden, the hopeful.
The USA cannot continue to absorb immigrants at the current rate. Already the seams of tolerance are straining. The issue is being couched as a civil rights matter; what a joke. To compare today with the problem of whites and blacks is ludicrous. That was a real civil rights situation and it is still being worked through.
The American left embraces Vicente Fox without criticism because they are also morally bankrupt. Americans of the leftist persuasion are emotionally weak and insecure. The important thing to them is to be viewed as gentle, caring people. They are easily manipulated because most don’t really have lives of their own. Their opinions are shaped by Newsweek and Time magazine. If it’s in print they believe it. It’s not far off the mark to assume that Mr. Fox will be more successful in the USA than he can ever hope or want to be in Mexico.

Backlash
There is a backlash coming concerning the problem of illegal immigration. The Mexican illegals have raised the stakes and have begun to alienate their friends and potential allies. This is going to force the Democrat party to make a choice, which is obvious, and reveal their true colors. The latest gambit of the Mexican illegals is to demonstrate using language that would, if used by a white person, result in a few days in jail.
“Nigger go back to Africa” and “Pilgrims go Home” are not the kind of slogans that attract people to your cause. Further there is resentment among those who have immigrated recently that feel they followed the rules why shouldn’t everyone else.
Black citizens are beginning to feel isolated and deserted. The Democrat party is going to embrace the Hispanic illegals and support them because they are a larger potential voting block. This will drive some African-Americans to the Republicans, who are probably incapable of recognizing this opportunity, and will push others out of the process completely. The social and economic divide in the United States will widen and the political system will deteriorate further.
When a group achieves its political aims through force or intimidation they lose the inclination to compromise. This is what is happening in the United States today. There will be violence between blacks and Hispanics; it is already happening in Los Angeles and it will spread to the other large cities. The cause of this is weak politicians who are only concerned about their jobs, the failure of the education system to indoctrinate students in American culture, and an economy that encourages businesses to ignore laws about hiring illegal aliens.
If it weren’t so dangerous it would be funny. The Democrat Party is finally getting its day of reckoning. They are so childish that they can’t see it coming. The liberal feel good, self-hating, nation-hating, left are going to be shown for what they really are: wealthy, guilt ridden products of a left wing education system that has failed to train them to think. They are self-obsessed and are easily manipulated. When the mobs break down doors they don’t usually ask if you were on their side, they are only interested in where the money and car keys are.

Stuck on Stickers
I never have and never will put a bumper sticker on my car. It is impertinent to feel that you can give people your views, in traffic, without escape, and without their asking for it. This blog is different: a reader must be looking for what is here. Further they can click out at anytime and / or send an anonymous comment to me. I see all kinds of stupid bumper stickers most of which I doubt that the driver even remembers putting on the car.
I guess, because I don’t know, that people use bumper stickers to make themselves feel good. For example I saw a white couple driving along with at least six stickers decrying racism and in fact taking the blame for racism themselves. How stupid can you get, and how insulting? The very presence of the bumper stickers proves that they haven’t thought through the concept of racism. Another, very popular by the way, “Regime change starts at home.” Again proving that liberals don’t know their own history and only want to appear witty, caring, and edgy. Since it was Bill Clinton and a Democrat congress that passed the Iraq regime change bill in 1998, they only appear dull, uninformed, childish, and boring.
Today I came across another that said “Practice Compassionate Impeachment.” The car had the obligatory Kerry/Edwards tag on it and the car itself was a Volvo. The driver, a late fifties aged male, apparently thought he was still beating the draft. These people are parodies of themselves. The world and its societies certainly have problems and they cannot be reduced to bumper sticker slogans. Solutions, such as they may be, require cooperation across the political spectrum; which is a fading dream at this point.
Terrorism is the last resort of the helpless. Bumper stickers are a form of terrorism

EuroCowardice
The Europeans, in particular the Dutch, are showing their true fearful colors. A female member of the Dutch parliament has basically been exiled to the United States for her outspoken view of Islam and its hateful tendencies among the more fanatical believers. Oh it’s fine to be outspoken in one’s criticism of the United States because it is safe to do so. There is no threat of assassination, maiming, expulsion from one’s home simply because one expresses doubts about the US and its citizens. Appeasement: that is Europe’s middle name. The result will be the disappearance of any unique European culture or identity by the year 2100, the state religion will be Islam and the state of the world will be more war. At least the Europeans won’t be asked to fight as they will have already surrendered. I wonder how many statues will be left in the Louvre.
Europe has been the scene of many horrible wars and they are understandably tired of fighting. They rarely fought for their liberty and freedom so they don’t understand the concept very well. Most European wars were fought by the plebes on behalf of the elites mainly about which Royal house was going to get the money from the other’s farms. Of course there were religious wars which make today’s conflict seem pedestrian by comparison. Murder, torture, rape, pillage were all the staples of a culture that produced the arts, music, and literature in between battles. The Europeans resent the United States because it was their rescuer in two major death struggles.
Ah the French, vive la difference! These are among the most cowardly, bombastic people on earth. Not only will French as a language disappear so will most French people. When the Caliph of Paris makes a suggestion it will be obeyed in Berlin.
As any school child knows there comes a point when one must stand up to the playground bully. Until the Europeans remember this they are destined to extinction.
EuroCowardice
The Europeans, in particular the Dutch, are showing their true fearful colors. A female member of the Dutch parliament has basically been exiled to the United States for her outspoken view of Islam and its hateful tendencies among the more fanatical believers. Oh it’s fine to be outspoken in one’s criticism of the United States because it is safe to do so. There is no threat of assassination, maiming, expulsion from one’s home simply because one expresses doubts about the US and its citizens. Appeasement: that is Europe’s middle name. The result will be the disappearance of any unique European culture or identity by the year 2100, the state religion will be Islam and the state of the world will be more war. At least the Europeans won’t be asked to fight as they will have already surrendered. I wonder how many statues will be left in the Louvre.
Europe has been the scene of many horrible wars and they are understandably tired of fighting. They rarely fought for their liberty and freedom so they don’t understand the concept very well. Most European wars were fought by the plebes on behalf of the elites mainly about which Royal house was going to get the money from the other’s farms. Of course there were religious wars which make today’s conflict seem pedestrian by comparison. Murder, torture, rape, pillage were all the staples of a culture that produced the arts, music, and literature in between battles. The Europeans resent the United States because it was their rescuer in two major death struggles.

Hillary Wakes Up Crazy
Hillary Clinton’s latest remarks about abortion show just how schizo the Democrat party is on the issue of abortion and most likely everything else. Her comments that a right wing conspiracy, reminiscent of her comments about Bill and Monica, are patently ridiculous and absurd they are also a lie. Abortion is the cornerstone of the Democrat Party and has been since 1973. Are these people to be trusted more than the Republicans?
What is at the root of her message? In a strange way the Democrat Party, and most likely all parties, are similar to Islam. The comparison is narrow and only partly analogous but here goes. Under the prescriptions of the Koran it is permissible to lie to an infidel if it furthers the cause of the brethren. So it is with the Democrats in the case of abortion. They know the majority of American voters are opposed to abortion in particular partial birth abortion. This tactic is one that all major liars espouse; tell the biggest lie possible some of it will be believed.
I think this particular lie will not wash, even though the Democrat Party seems to think that anyone who disagrees with them is an idiot and completely undeserving of respect. Many of the voters in the United States are savvy enough to tell truth from falsehood. It is however hilarious.
During the most recent Democrat Convention a pro-life party member was refused the right to address the floor. Now they blame conservatives for the success of their strategy. How many times has it been said that to elect a Republican is to endanger women’s “reproductive rights.” The basis of this latest lie is that by opposing free condom distribution is forcing women into abortions of unwanted pregnancies; this is patently untrue. Use a pill, use a condom, don’t have sex, the crux of unwanted pregnancy is waking up pregnant and refusing accept responsibility of the action.

George Trys It On
Last night the president made an effort to educate the nation about illegal immigration. The job is too big for one speech. The points he made were very good for the most part but served more to underline the tremendous structural problems than to actually begin to resolve the issue. The United States needs more population but that population must be assimilated as citizens of the United States sharing a common culture. We do not need a multicultural society except to appreciate the differences while emphasizing the similarities.
Those who worry about an extra 200 million people over a 40 year period are wasting their time and energy. Raise the limits; enforce the language and civics requirements so that our new citizens will be complete and able to function according to our traditional values. Yes the borders should be secure, North and South; it is not up to the US to wilt from criticism by Mexico and Canada. Those two nations have very strict immigration enforcement do we hear complaints? For example a Honduran or Guatemalan coming into Mexico illegally is arrested and is considered a felon. They are immediately deported either back home or sent on their way to the US. As for Canada, just try and get through while in possession of a felony conviction; immediate turn-around is the treatment.
The real problem of illegal immigration is caused by a very weak and corrupt Mexican and Latino economic and political systems. People don’t leave home if they don’t have to. Once here these immigrants do not assimilate as quickly as is needed. A key to successful assimilation is language. The first step then is to eliminate any language but English in the schools and legal system. Without this requirement and underclass will be a fixed aspect of US society, one that is ruled by criminals within the group; just like their home countries today.
Freedom requires the ability to move physically, socially, and economically based on one’s skills. Without life skills and language capacity no one can successfully negotiate a social hierarchy. The chief failure in the US is its awful education system which is completely broken. The wacko left, teachers unions, and feel-gooders have abandoned the fundamentals of a successful life: reading, writing, and arithmetic. These three things are the cornerstones of success all else flows from them.
George Bush has made a stab at resolution but it will prove inadequate to the need and will most likely have disturbing consequences if the basics are not addressed first.

Monitor My Phone
One reason there is so much excitement about the NSA data collection story is that most people think the world began when they were born. Well certainly their world began but the slightest exhibition of curiosity would tell them that something happened before their birth; if only their conception. The security agencies of the United States, and most likely other nations who could afford it, have been keeping track of communications since it became possible in the late 1940s.
I served in the US military from 1966-1970 and can assure you that we were told that all communications in the United States were monitored by the CIA. In fact there is a famous, huge, black building in Washington DC that houses the crypto code breaking organization. Every US military base has a similar operation. These listening posts check for patterns of communication, word association, and order to determine if a threat is imminent.
The current uproar is ridiculous. There is hardly any privacy left in the US and certainly not in the rest of the world. Americans behave like naïve children. This very communication is being monitored if only by my ISP, hackers are able to track every keystroke made on anyone’s computer. Credit card companies know more about their customers than do the customers themselves.
I think the Democrats have overreached on this issue. Their outrage is false as is most of what they claim to hold dear. It is essential that the US protect itself from its enemies, among whom the wacko Left might be included, that is the only real job of the federal government. The hearings on this matter will be very interesting, especially those pertaining to the phone companies’ complicity. In 1994 the Democrat controlled congress passed a law, signed by Bill Clinton, to force the communications companies to reveal customer names and numbers without a warrant. This answer to why phone monitoring is legal might come back to haunt them.

A Day Without Mexicans
I could have used a day without Mexicans yesterday. I enjoy golf for the usual reasons, it’s fun, normally pastoral, and mostly quiet; not yesterday. It seemed that a host of Mexican workers had descended on the course driving tractors, trucks, leaf-blowers, using rakes, and generally getting in the way rather noisily. The place I usually play is a magnificent municipal golf course maintained by a foundation and by taxes, and fees.
As we were being tormented by these intrusive workers I began to wonder just how many of them were legal immigrants and who was charged with ensuring this that they were eligible for employment. Their presence has been slowly gaining momentum over the past two years and now they have completely displaced all the former workers who were white or African –American. This leads me to believe that our local government is employing illegal aliens while the local politicians decry their presence.
Apparently the new taboo is the discussion of who has a green card and who doesn’t and what to do about it. The problem must be addressed and the only way to do so is to face reality. They are here and must be assimilated. No multilingual curriculum, no acceptance of their culture as a primary one, they must speak English or decamp. They must learn the history of the United States so they can become a part of the nation. We must maintain our sense of nationalism. It makes a difference, bring them in, welcome them, and train them.
I realize that my wimpy liberal friends will disagree because they don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings; well no one’s but mine. Liberals would have you believe that the United States is a monster and deserves to disappear, that democracy doesn’t work, (remember the dictatorship of the proletariat?). The response to the recent letter from the Iranian president proves my point.
The Western portion of the United States is under siege and I don’t expect it to survive the onslaught. We will be petitioning to have English restored at least as a second language.
A day without Mexicans, at least on the golf course, sounds really nice.
