STRANGE AND TROUBLING HAPPENINGS

THERE ARE THINGS HAPPENING IN THE WHITE HOUSE THAT WOULD NEVER HAPPEN IN THAT HALLOWED RESIDENCE OF PRESIDENTS WHEN THE "GIPPER" WAS OUR PRESIDENT. THE ANNOUNCEMENT THIS WEEK OF GOLDMAN SACHS CEO HENRY PAULSON BEING NOMINATED TO PRESIDENT BUSHS' CABINET AS SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY IS A VERY TROUBLING NOMINATION. WHY PRESIDENT BUSH APPOINTED A MAN WHOM IT IS ALLEGED IS AN AVOWED ENVIRONMENTALIST IS BEYOND RATIONAL COMPREHENSION. THIS MAN HAS USED STOCK HOLDERS INVESTMENT FUNDS, DURING HIS TERM AS CEO, TO FUND RADICAL ENVIRONMENTAL CAUSES.HE IS PAST PRESIDENT OF THE WEALTHY ENVIRONMENTAL GROUP "TNC". AN AVOWED SUPPORTER OF THE "MAN MADE" GLOBAL WARMING CONCEPT,AND AN ADVOCATE OF GOVERNMENT ACTION TO STOP "GLOBAL WARMING".
HE VIGOROUSLY SUPPORTED A SENATE BILL WHICH WAS ,MERCIFULLY DEFEATED, ENVIRONMENTAL SENATE BILL "KYOTO LITE". SPONSERED BY SENATORS McCAIN AND LIEBERMAN, THE "KYOTO LITE" BILL WOULD HAVE MANDATED CABON DIOXIDE EMISSIONS BE ROLLED BACK TO 2000 LEVELS WITHIN FIVE YEARS. IT HAS BEEN ESTIMATED BY RELIABLE ECONOMISTS THAT IF THAT BILL HAD PASSED INTO LAW IT WOULD HAVE COST THE U.S. ECONOMY HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS AND COUNTLESS JOBS.
THE BILL WAS ANYTHING BUT FRIENDLY TO U.S. PRODUCTIVITY AND ECONOMIC WELL BEING! ADDITIONALLY THIS MAN IS REPORTEDLY WEAK ON PERSONAL PROPERTY RIGHTS. WHERE DOES PRESIDENT BUSH GET HIS MOTIVATION FOR THIS APPOINTMENT? IT CERTAINLY WASN'T FROM THE CONSERVATIVE BASE IN HIS PARTY!

WATCHING LARRY KING LIVE LAST NIGHT. I USUALLY AVOID HIM LIKE THE PLAGUE, BUT I KNEW THAT CAPTAIN KIMBER (USMC) WAS ONE OF HIS GUESTS. WE HEARED FROM CAPTAIN KIMBER THAT HE WAS RELIEVED OF HIS COMMAND IN IRAQ AND SHIPPED TO A DESK JOB AT CAMP PENDELTON IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA FOR HIS ALLEGED LACK OF COMMAND AND CONROL IN THE HADITHA MASSACRE. THIS DESPITE THE FACT THAT HE WAS IN ANOTHER CITY WHEN THIS INCIDENT WENT DOWN! THIS IS A TEN YEAR MARINE WITH 2 TOURS IN IRAQ AND A COMMENDATION MEDAL FOR VALOR. THE CORPS WILL LOOSE A GOOD LEADER WHOSE REPUTATION HAS BEEN FOREVER DAMAGED ALL BECAUSE SOME "SUPERIOR" OFFICERS WERE POLITICALLY DRIVEN TO DO SOMETHING BECAUSE OF ALL THE "HEAT" COMING THEIR WAY. LOOKS LIKE THE MARINE CORPS MOTTO SHOULD BE CHANGED TO "WE NEED A FEW GOOD MEN WHO DON'T MIND BEING "A FALL GUY!"

WAIT AND RESERVE JUDGEMENT

THE FUROR OVER THE ALLEGED MASSACRE OF 24 IRAQI CIVILIANS IN HADITHA AND THE KILLING OF 14 CIVILIANS IN ISHAQI INCLUDING 5 CHILDREN IS IF FOUND TO BE TRUE A HORRIBLE VIOLATION BY A FEW MARINES WHICH MUST BE PROSECUTED TO THE FULL MEASURE OF MILITARY JUSTICE. THE KEY WORDS HERE ARE "ALLEGED" AND PROVEN GUILTY".
THE LEFTIST BUSH HATING, ANTI-MILITARY MEDIA HAS ALL BUT DECLARED THE MEN ACCUSED OF THIS HEINOUS CRIME GUILTY OF A MASSACRE IN THE NATURE OF VIET NAMS MY LAI. NOTHING CAN BE FARTHER FROM THE TRUTH WHICH ALL JOURNALIST SHOULD HOLD DEAR TO THEM, BUT HAVE APPARENTLY PUT ASIDE SO THEY CAN CONTINUE THEIR "ANTI-ADMINISTRATION" HARANGUE.
FIRST AND FOREMOST IS THE FACT THAT IN IRAQ THERE ARE 35 PEOPLE INVOLVED IN THE TWO INCIDENTS. MY LAI INVOLVED THE MURDER OF 300 WOMEN AND CHILDREN WAS DIRECTED BY AN OFFICER. THIS OFFICER WAS FOUND GUILTY BY A MILITARY COURT AND SENT TO A MILITARY PRISON, AFTER DUE PROCESS WAS ALLOWED TO HAPPEN.

SOME HOW I MISSED THE MAIN STREM ARTICLES AND VIDEOS ON TELEVISION WHEN IT WAS LEARNED THAT ON AUGUST 2,2004 12 IRAQI CHRISTIAN CIVILIANS WERE MURDERED BY ISLAMIC RADICALS WHO RAIDED 5 CHURCHES IN IRAQ. BUT I DIGRESS! THE KNOWN FACTS ARE THE FOLLOWING. ON THE 20TH OF NOVEMBER FOLLOWING THE KILLING OF A MARINE TRAVELING IN A VEHICLE DESTROYED BY A ROADSIDE BOMB. IT IS CHARGED THAT A GROUP OF ENLISTED MARINE RIFLEMAN ENTERED 3 SEPERATE HOUSES KILLING 23 WOMEN AND CHILDREN. THEY THEN DRAGED A MAN FROM HIS CAR AND SHOT HIM DEAD.THE MARINES ALLEGEDLY REPORTED TO THEIR SUPERIORS THAT THEY KILLED THE PEOPLE IN A "FIRE FIGHT" AFTER THEIR COMRADE HAD BEEN KILLED. THIS ENDED THE ISSUE UNTIL A "JOURNALISM STUDENT" SUBMITTED A VIDEO ALLEGEDLY SHOWING THE 3 HOUSES INVOLVED AND DEAD BODIES OF THOSE KILLED BY THE MARINES. AT THAT TIME TIME MAGAZINE DECIDED THE VIDEO WAS IRAQI PROPAGANDA AND DECLINED TO PUBLISH ANYTHING. HOWEVER, MARCH 27,2006 IT DECIDED TO PUBLISH AN ARTICLE FEATURING A STATEMENT "MARINES RAN AMOK"! WHAT THEY FAILED TO HIGHLIGHT WAS THE FACT THAT JUST A FEW DAY BEFORE, THE MARINES SUFFERED 13 KILLED BY ROADSIDE BOMBS, AND 6 MARINES DIED DURING A GUN BATTLE WITH SOME OF THE TOWNS "CIVILIANS"! THE SAME TOWN WHERE THE ALLEGED "MURDERS" HAPPENED. IT ALSO WAS NOT NOTED THAT THE MARINES HAVE SUFFERED THE MOST CASUALTIES IN IRAQ OF ANY SERVICE INVOLVED. THIS DOES NOT JUSTIFY DELIBERATE MURDER OF UNARMED CIVILIANS. BUT JUST HOW MANY MEN AND WOMEN SERVING IN IRAQ HAVE BEEN KILLED BY WHAT THEY THOUGHT WERE INNOCENT CIVILIANS?

BECAUSE OF THE MEDIA FRENZY.THE MARINE CORPS HAS BEGUN GIVING THEIR TROOPS ETHICS TRAINING. THIS FOR TRAINED WARRIORS WHOSE PRIMARY PURPOSE IS TO KILL THE ENEMY BEFORE THEY OR THEIR BUDDIES ARE KILLED. TALK ABOUT SENDING A MIXED MESSAGE!

I HOPE THES MARINES DIDN'T DO WHAT THEY ARE CHARGED WITH, BUT FOR GODS SAKE AT LEAST BACK OFF ON JUDGEMENT UNTIL THEY ARE GIVEN A FAIR TRIAL. EVEN SADAM IS BEING GIVEN A FAIR TRIAL. THE MAN KNOWN FOR THE MURDERR OF THOUSANDS OF HIS OWN PEOPLE!

LINCOLN WILL ROLLOVER IN HIS GRAVE!

AT A TIME WHEN AMERICANS ARE LOOSING THEIR LIVES HELPING A COUNTRY GAIN A UNIFIED FREE COUNTRY IN IRAQ. THE U.S. SENATE IS CONSIDERING ANOTHER "DASTARDLY" BILL! ONE THAT WILL CAUSE A SEPERATE SOVEREIGN NATION BE FORMED WITHIN THE BORDERS OF THE U.S. OVER 500,000 AMERICANS LOST THEIR LIVES SO PRESIDENT LINCOLN COULD PRESERVE THE UNION OF A COUNTRY THAT HAD BEEN SEPERATED BY THE SOUTHERN STATES SPLITING AWAY TO FORM THE CONFEDERATES STATES OF AMERICA. NOW SENATOR DANIEL AKAKAS' (DEM.HI) SENATE BILL 3064,WHICH WOULD IF PASSED, DOES SPLIT OFF PART OF THE UNITED STATES. THE NATIVE GOVERNMENT REORGANIZATION ACT OF 2006, IS SCHEDULED FOR A VOTE NEXT WEEK.

YOU WON'T READ ABOUT THIS IN THE MAIN STREAM MEDIA. HOWEVER,THIS BILL IF EVENTUALLY PASSED, WOULD ESTABLISH A NEW SOVEREGIN NATION WITHIN THE UNITED STATES BASED SOLEY ON RACE! THE BILL WOULD GRANT RIGHTS AND PRIVILEDGES TO MEMBERS OF A PARTICULAR RACE (HAWAIIAN NATIVES) THAT YOU AND I DON'T NECESSARILY HAVE. SOUNDS STANGELY FAMILIAR TO WHAT THE U.S. HAD AT THE TIME OF THE CIVIL WAR! ACTUALLY UNTIL THE 1960S.

THERE ARE AN ESTIMATED 400,000 PEOPLE THROUGHOUT THE U.S. THAT HAVE SOME NATIVE HAWAIIAN BLOOD IN THEIR VEINS WHO WOULD ALSO BE COVERED BY THIS SAME LAW. THE SO CALLED "GUEST WORKERS" BILL PASSED LAST WEEK ALREADY PROPOSES NEW RIGHTS NOT AVAILABLE TO US AMERICANS. NOW THE SENATE IS SERIOUSLY CONTEMPLATING A BILL THAT NEVER SHOULD HAVE BEEN ALLOWED TO BE PRESENTED FOR A VOTE IN THE EXCLUSIVE "ELITE" MILLIONAIRES CLUB CALLED THE SENATE.

THE UNITED STATES CIVIL RUGHTS COMMISSION, NO RIGHT WING THINK TANK, HAS COME OUT OPPOSING THIS LEGISLATION AS "IT WOULD FURTHER DIVIDE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE INTO DISCRETE SUBGROUPS ACCORDED VARYING DEGREES OF PRIVILIDGE. FURTHER BALKANIZATION OF AMERICAN CULTURE". ANOTHER IMPORTANT COMMENT WAS PRINTED BY THOMAS SOWELL THE NOTED COLUMNIST. HE WRITES,"OUR SENATORS WILL EITHER SALVAGE OUR CIVIL RIGHTS BY DEFEATING SENATE BILL 3064 OR THEY WILL SAVAGE WHAT REMAINS OF CIVIL RIGHTS IN THE UNITED STATES".

THE UNMENTIONED FALL OUT OF THIS BILLS PASSAGE IS THE PROBABILITY OF THIS LEGISLATION GIVING IMPETUS TO THE "AZTLA" MOVEMENT PRESENTLY WORKING TO REPEAL THE GUADALUPE TREATY OF 1898. IF SENATE BILL 3064 PASSES INTO LAW THE NEXT THING YOU CAN EXPECT IS A BILL REPEALING THE 1898 TREATY, THEREBY RETURNING 525,000 SQUARE MILES OF THE SOUTHWESTERN UNITED STATES TO THE INDIGENOUS MEXICAN AMERICANS! CAN WE ALLOW THIS TO HAPPEN? HAS OUR GOVERNMENT BECOME SO OUT OF REACH OF THE AVERAGE AMERICAN CITIZEN THAT WE CAN NO LONGER HAVE OUR CONSTUTIONAL RIGHT TO A REPRESENTATIVE GOVERNMENT? REMEMBER WE ARE THE HOME OF THE FREE BECAUSE OF THE CONSTITUTION AND THE
BLOOD LOST BY THOSE GALLANT MEMBERS OF OUR MILITARY WHO FOUGHT TO DEFEND THESE RIGHTS. DON'T ALLOW THE APPARENTLY "DETACHED" CONGRESS TO GIVE THIS AWAY! PLEASE CALL YOUR CONGRESSMAN AND SENATORS TO INSIST THEY VOTE AGAINST BOTH BILLS. BUT DON'T HOLD YOUR BREATH!

ANOTHER 40 YEARS OF WANDERING?

STHIS NOVEMBER THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WILL BE CASTING BALLOTS WHICH WILL IMPACT THE REPUBLICAN PARTY LIKE NO OTHER ELECTION SINCE NEWT GINGRICH LEAD THE REPUBLICAN PARTY OUT OF THE "WILDERNESS" IT HAD WANDERED FOR 40 YEARS. HE DID THIS WITH "THE CONTRACT FOR AMERICA". DESPITE ALL OF HIS PERSONAL FOIBLES NEWT GINGRICH WAS ONE OF THE PRIMARY LEADERS IN THIS RETURN TO REPUBLICAN POWER IN 1989.

WHERE ARE THE "NEWT GINGRICHES" WHEN WE NEED THEM? FOR THEIR PERFIDY, THE REPUBLICANS DESERVE TO LOOSE THIS ELECTION! BUT THE CONSEQUENCES AND DISASTER OF HAVING NANCY PELOSI AS SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE AND "SHADDY" HARRY REID AS MAJORITY LEADER ARE TWO THINGS TOO HORRIBLE FOR THIS LIFE LONG REPUBLICAN TO CONTEMPLATE. THE PRESENT REPUBLICAN MAJORITY IN CONGRESS HAS DEMONSTRATED THEIR LACK OF CONCERN FOR THE VALUES THAT SWEPT REPUBLICANS INTO OFFICE IN 1989. WITH THEIR WILD SPENDING AND DEMONSTRATED IGNORANCE FOR THE REAL CAUSE OF GAS PRICES BEING SO HIGH. AS DID THEIR DEMAGOGUERY AND ECONOMIC IGNORANCE DEMONSTRATED BY DRAGGING BEFORE THEIR COMMITTEES THE OIL COMPANY EXECUTIVES. INSTEAD OF PASSING BILLS THAT WOULD ALLOW DRILLING FOR THE VAST SUPPLY OF OIL UNDER THE ALASKAN TUNDRA OR WELL OFF SHORE. THE HOME TO CARABOOS AND PENGUINS WHO WOULD NOT BE HURT ONE BIT BY THE SILENT DRILLING RIGS HAS BEEN PUT "OFF LIMITS". NOR HAS THE REPUBLICAN MAJORITY MADE ANY ATTEMPT TO FURTHER PROMOTE THE USE OF CLEAN NUCLEAR POWER. TODAY EUROPEAN COUNTRIES LIKE SWEDEN (75%) AND FRANCE (50%) USE NUCLEAR POWER FOR THEIR ENERGY. WE IN AMERICA USE ONLY 20%. CONTINUING TO USE THE OLD STANDBY COAL, WHICH BY THE WAY COMES IN LARGE PART FROM WEST VIRGINA WHERE TOO MANY MINERS HAVE DIED RECENTLY. WEST VIRGINIA IS HOME TO SENATOR BYRD. THE OCTOGENARIAN WHO SHOULD LONG AGO HAVE BEEN SENT BACK HOME TO BE WITH HIS OLD "KLAN" BUDDIES.

WALTER WILLIAMS THE DISTINGUISHED WRITER FOR "TOWN HALL" WRITES TODAY ABOUT THE "CONSPIRACY OF COWARDICE AND STUPITY OF CONGRESS" IN HIS ARTICLE "THE ECONOMICS OF PRICES". HE CONCLUDES HIS ARTICLE WRITING THAT GAS STATIONS SHOULD PUT A PICTURE OF A CARIBOU, POLAR BEAR AND PENGUIN ON EACH PUMP WITH THE CAPTION "THANKS FOR PAYING (PICK A $ NUMBER) SO WE CAN PLAY ON LAND CLEAR OF OIL RIGS". TO ME THIS EMPHASISES THAT CONGRESS SEEMS TO CARE MORE ABOUT THE "ECOLOGY" AND ANIMALS THAN THEY DO THE CONTINUATION OF OUR WAY OF LIFE AS WE ENJOY IT TODAY! WILL WE SEE IN NOVEMBER THE BEGINING OF AOTHER FORTY YEAR WANDERING BY REPUPUBLICANS WHO ARE LOOKING FOR THE POWER THEY HAD AND GAVE AWAY?

POST MEMORIAL DAY MUSINGS

  THE FOLLOWING WAS WRITTEN OF REPRESENTATIVE CHARLIE NORWOOD (GA.REPUBLICAN)IN "REAL CLEAR POLITICS". HE WAS QUOTED AS SAYING, "THE SENATE AMNESTY BILL THEY PASSED LAST THURSDAY GIVES PREFERENTIAL TREATMENT TO ILLEGAL ALIENS OVER AMERICANS. THIS BILL CONSTITUTES TREACHERY AGAINST UNITED STATES SOVEREIGNTY. THEY (THE ILLEGALS) ARE NOT ONLY VIOLATING IMMIGRATION LAWS,BUT ALSO USING FORGED DOCUMENTS, COMMITING TAX FRAUD, SOCIAL SECURITY FRAUD, BANK FRAUD AND IDENTITY FRAUD." HOW MANY LEGAL CITIZENS OF THE U.S. WOULD AVOID PROSECUTION IF THEY COMMITED THESE CRIMES, MUCH LESS BE REWARDED FOR BREAKING THE LAWS?

WE SHOULD NOT LISTEN TO THE LIBERAL TALKING POINTS FOR PASSAGE OF THIS BETRAYAL OF AMERICAN SOVEREIGNTY. THE ARGUMENTS ARE ALL USED TO APPEAL TO OUR SENSE OF FAIRNESS AND COMPASSION. THE DISASTEROUS EFFECTS ON OUR ECONOMY,AND MEDICAL CARE SYSTEM OF THIS PROPOSAL TO ALLOW MANY MILLIONS OF IMMIGRANTS FROM MEXICO IN THE NEXT TEN YEARS ARE UNQUESTIONABLE. IF THE REPUBLICAN MAJORITY IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES CAVES INTO THE PERSUASION OF PRESIDENT BUSH, SENATOR FRIST,SENATOR MCCAIN, SENATOR KENNEDY AND THE OTHER 60 SENATORS WHO HAVE APPARENTLY "LOST THEIR WAY" ON THE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT ISSUE. THERE WILL BE A RESOUNDING THUD AS THE RELEVANCE OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY, AND RESPECT FOR THE RULE OF LAW COMES TO AN TRAGIC STOP!

IF YOU THOUGHT THE CLINTON ADMINISTRATION WAS INSTRUMENTAL IN DEGRADING THE PUBLIC RESPECT AND OPINION FOR THE SYSTEMS OF GOVERNMENT, YOU HAVEN'T SEEN ANYTHING UNTIL AND IF THE DEMOCRATS TAKE OVER THE CONGRESS AND WHITE HOUSE IN THE NEXT TWO YEARS.

THE AMERICAN HERITAGE DICTIONARY DEFINES THE WORD "ENLIGHTENMENT" AS: "THE PHILOSOPHICAL MOVEMENT BORN IN THE 1700s EMPHASIZING THE USE OF REASON TO SCRUTINIZE PREVIOUSLY ACCEPTED DOCTRINES AND TRADITIONS TO BRING ABOUT HUMANITARIAN REFORMS."
MOST LIBERALS USE ELIGHTENMENT IN THEIR ILLOGICAL PURSUIT OF THE WELFARE (AKA SOCIALISM) STATE. BUT THERE IS NO UNDERSTANABLE "REASON" FOR THE MOTIVATION OF SUPPORTERS OF "GUEST WORKER" LEGISLATION. THE PROPOSED BILL WILL ALLOW AMONG MANY OBJECTIONAL PROVISIONS, ILLEGAL RIGHTS WE AMERICANS DON'T HAVE. PROMOTING THIS BILL MUST BE FOR CRASS POLITICAL REASONS! IF SO, THE GAIN IN HISPANIC VOTES WILL NOT BE NEARLY ENOUGH TO MAKE UP FOR THE LOSS OF DISENFRANCHISED AND ANGRY VOTERS!

MEMORIAL DAY REFLECTIONS

AS WILL MANY MILLIONS OF OTHER AMERICANS I WILL HAVE A BARBEQUE THIS AFTERNOON AND AS "RUSH" WOULD SAY, ENJOY A FEW "ADULT BEVERAGES". HOWEVER,I BEGAN THE DAY WITH A SMALL PRAYER TO THE ALMIGHTY THANKING HIM FOR THE BRAVE AND COURAGEOUS MEN AND WOMEN WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES DURING THE WARS AND "POLICE ACTIONS" THAT REQUIRED THEIR SERVICE AND SACRIFICE. THEIR ULTIMATE SACRIFICE ALLOWS ME TO ENJOY THIS HOLIDAY AND THE FREEDOMS THAT ARE PART OF MY DAILY LIFE.

JOHN MILL, AN ENGLISH ECONOMIST AND PHILOSOPHER (1806-1873), WROTE, "WAR IS AN UGLY THING, BUT NOT THE ULGLIEST OF THINGS. THE DECAYED AND DEGRADED STATE OF MORAL AND PATRIOTIC FEELINGS WHICH THINKS THAT NOTHING IS WORTH WAR IS MUCH WORSE. THE PERSON WHO HAS NOTHING WHICH IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN HIS OWN PERSONAL SAFTEY, IS A MISERABLE CREATURE AND HAS NO CHANCE OF BEING FREE UNLESS MADE AND KEPT SO BY THE EXERTIONS OF BETTER MEN THAN HIMSELF". IF ONLY THE "PEACE ACTIVISTS" AND THEIR "FELLOW TRAVELERS" COULD UNDERSTAND THIS BASIC PHILOSOPHY.

WHILE WE HONOR THOSE THAT PAID WITH THEIR LIVES FOR US TO ENJOY THIS DAY. WE SHOULD CELEBRATE THEIR COMMITMENT AND CHARACTER THAT MOTIVATED THEM TO JUST FOLLOW THEIR ORDERS DOING THEIR DUTY AT THE TIME OF THEIR DEATH. WITHOUT THAT DEDICATION OUR CAUSE WOULD HAVE FAILED!

APPARENTLT THE 63 U.S. SENATORS THAT VOTED FOR SENATE BILL 2611 ARE NOT AS LOYAL TO THE VAST MAJORITY OF AMERICANS THEY REPRESENT! THE THRUST OF THIS BILL DESPITE ALL THE PROTESTATIONS AND PLATITUDES ABOUT ITS INTENT. THIS IS AN "AMNESTY" BILL FOR LAWBREAKERS. IF ALLOWED TO BECOME LAW BECAUSE OF A "SURRENDER" OF PRINCIPLE BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. THEIR COMBINED ACTIONS WILL BE A GIANT STEP TOWARD THE ABYSS OF SOCIALISM AND LOSS OFTHE WAY OF LIFE THAT WE PRESENTLY ENJOY. THE WAY OF LIFE THAT SO MANY HONORABLE AMERICANS HAVE DIED FOR! AS DIANE WEST STATED IN HER COLUMN IN TOWNHALLS MEMORIAL DAY POSTING. "IS AMERICA SOMETHING WE CAN JUST FORGET?
