Insanity Defined
I still say it's all economics. Millions of impoverished men in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Pakistan have so little to live for that they will join a Jihad that supposedly gives them something to die for.
We support a corrupt government in Afghanistan which, through its failure to give any hope to its people, creates more and more "insurgents" every day--and we send more and more troops to fight them.
If this policy is not the definition of insanity, I don't know what is.

Zeus, Jupiter, Odin--Whatever Happened To Them?
An interesting theological musing:
All those old gods were eventually dismissed as the stuff of fairy-tales.
Why not expect the same fate for our God who is currently in fashion?

Quick--Do Something Stupid!
Obama's enemies are making much of his "dithering" over sending more troops to Afghanistan. Apparently, these people prefer the style of our last president who responded to the 9/11 attacks by rapidly and decisively doing the dumbest thing in American history.

"Tell A Lie Long Enough And It Becomes The Truth"--Adolph Hitler
GUNS! It's all about guns. Whenever I ask one of my Blue-Collar-Republican co-workers why he votes for the the people who are screwing him I get the same answer: "Them Democrats are trying to take away my guns."
I need some help here. Will someone please name the last law passed under a Democratic administration that limits our Second Amendment right to bear arms.

" . . . Did Not Die In Vain." How Many Times Must The Relatives Of Dead U.S. Soldiers Hear This Outrageous Lie?
John Kerry is hardly known for his eloquence, but I'm haunted by his words: "How would it feel to be the last soldier killed in Vietnam?" We can now add Iraq and Afghanistan to this question.
There is no winning the war in Afghanistan. Eventually, we will withdraw and listen to more speeches every Memorial Day about how our soldiers in Afghanistan who died in vain did not die in vain.
We simply need to cut our losses and stop adding to the pain.

Levi to Expose the Secret of His Success
Word on the street is that Levi Johnston will be posing nude for "Playgirl."
This should certainly erase any doubt that the Palins' had about Levi's ambition or his ability to provide for Bristol's love child. And they thought the Johnstons' could only earn a living by selling drugs!
