    I appreciate the principles of free speech, but I think this constitutional right is meant to apply to the public arena. A good example is our own EO website - there are things that aren't allowed to be posted here, and for good reason. This forum is open to the public, with some limitations in...

    Mr. Responsibility

    Barack Hussein Obama's acceptance of responsibility reminds me of Janet Reno taking full responsibility for the disaster at Waco with the Branch Dividians. It's nothing more than lip service when these politicians "take responsibility" and let someone else take the consequences.

    Too much time on my hands?

    I saw that clip also, and it just demonstrates once again the attitude of not only the Speaker of the House, but also the entire liberal Democrat contingency in both houses of congress: they've got the majority, they're going to pass whatever legislation they want, and the opinion of the...

    goooh

    I did check it out when the thread first went up - didn't read everything on the site, but it appears on the surface to be a group that wants to resurrect the term limits movement that was attempted several years ago. Unfortunately, we'll never see a congress that will advocate voting themselves...

    I'm not a Facebook member but my wife is, so I've forwarded the link to her and everyone else I know that might be a member of that website. Something like this reflects very poorly on the administrators of Facebook. I don't know much about the site, but I would think they might have advertisers...

    CIA Workers Killed in Afghanistan as U.S. Steps Up Spying Role

    Quoting from the article: "When dealing with Muslims, what they say is not the issue. The real issue is, what they actually mean in their hearts. " Sounds a bit like American politicians...we should be used to this.

    Factory Orders Up 1.1% in November

    Any scrap of good economic news is welcome. However, improvement in the auto and housing sectors will be the keys to full economic recovery, and high unemployment will continue to hold these down. We also need to keep an eye on the inflation figures as our national debt and budget deficit...

    CIA Workers Killed in Afghanistan as U.S. Steps Up Spying Role

    More information coming out about the CIA suicide bomber - a Jordanian doctor working not-so-clandestinely as a double agent. This article gives us a good insight as to what our soldiers are up against in Afghanistan, and why we need better inteligence operations there. AFP: US intel...

    Newt Gingrich: Victory or Death

    Here's a really good clip from a speech given by Newt Gingrich. Lately I've gone back and forth with my attitude toward Newt, but in this speech his ideas are right on the money, and in a few short minutes he clearly identifies the sources of many problems we have in our country today...

    Look who is telling barry how it is now....

    We have to consider the source; Iran is the primary sponsor of terrorism in the world. They are exporting aid to terrorists or setting up proxies in every trouble spot that exists. They have clearly stated their anti-Western sentiments and their intention to wipe out Israel. With those positions...

    CIA Workers Killed in Afghanistan as U.S. Steps Up Spying Role

    I also thought about them, but the Americans and Europeans didn't really start to take decisive military measures against them until the early 1800's. The pirates weren't completely eradicated until France went in, conquered and colonized Algeria in about 1830. As mentioned above, there is a...

    CIA Workers Killed in Afghanistan as U.S. Steps Up Spying Role

    Interesting quotation, although it strokes with a rather broad brush; it could easily be applied to the health care and cap & trade legislation currently being proposed in congress. However, in Pitt's day there weren't fanatical Islamofascists trying to board airplanes or enter crowded...

    CIA Workers Killed in Afghanistan as U.S. Steps Up Spying Role

    There are some things in life in which first hand experience is ABSOLUTELY THE ONLY WAY to gain complete knowledge and understanding of the essence of an event or activity. There are many examples, but for the purposes of this discussion I'll only offer a few: Military Combat. Don't even try to...

    Snooty or Snotty Part III

    Jack or Maker's Mark - either will work well, and that drying out effect is beneficial to a certain extent. I had this crud that's going around for the first three weeks in Dec and hopefully it's gone for good. I found regular doses of the above prescription combined with plenty of other fluids...

    The growing clout of Lake Jackson's Ron Paul

    Michael Scheuer has been seen in the print and broadcast media quite a bit since his retirement from the CIA in 2004, and IMHO seems to be very knowledgeable in the area of foreign affairs with a lot of sensible ideas to offer. A good example is the attached article, written in Oct. 2009; when...

    Hasan Planned Attack

    This shouldn't come as a big surprise, but additional proof of the premeditation on Nadal Hasan's part has surfaced in this Al Jazeera interview with Anwar al-Awlaki, the radical imam that counseled Hasan. Awlaki goes on to ridicule US security failures for not recognizing the threatening...

    Your thoughts on this.....

    Hopefully, they appealed to the Almighty for something like Pestilence upon the heathen Democrats instead of Plague, which would put a strain on the already overburdened health system that can't even deal with swine flu vaccinations. However, the vision of Pelosi, Reid, and Obama suffering an...

    Way to go Obama!!

    Vaya con dios to your son and all the others over there in that Godforsaken pesthole. I'm afraid it's going to take something like another terrorist attack on our home soil or a major conflict between Iran and Israel to make people realize the total incompetence of this president and his...

    Newt & Pailen

    Well stated; here's a few statistics and a good article about teen pregnancy in the US. One quote from the article IMHO brings up a fact of recent cultural evolution that has a big impact on the mindset of today's teens: Mississippi now has highest teen birth rate - Kids and parenting-...
