France's Intefada !









I hear the folks in Washington are scratching their heads and wondering what the US can do to assist France in their most recent troubles.

I have a suggestion for them. Let’s do nothing!!!

France’s out of control immigration problem got them into this mess. Plus, their socialist system of paying the poor, to stay poor, and, out of sight, has come back to bite them in the keester! How unfortunate!

I think it is clear, to nearly everybody, that what France has on its hands, is not a riot, and not even a series of riots, but an insurrection… and “Intefada”, if you will.

France’s reluctance to bring in troops to quell this “Intefada” is not serving the French people well, at all.

It is reported that the Muslim “rioters” want nothing less than independence from France to form their own governments… in their own enclaves.


There is an answer to this… show them the border… in trucks, trains, buses, or that fleet of taxis France used in WW-1 to transport their troops to the front lines. Deport all of them. Exile those who hold citizenship in France. Just get rid of them!

Short of that, round them up, and hold them in internment camps, until France can get a handle on the violence … and then get rid of them.

At the moment, the eyes of the world’s media are turned on France. I would suggest the media’s "stringers" ought to keep their eyes and ears open all over Western Europe for similar “outbreaks of violence" promulgated by the Muslim minorities in the other European countries. This has a certain smell to it, if you will. There is a semblance of “control”, of “planning”, of “coordination”, and “directing” about this insurrection.

President Bush tried to make it as clear, as he possibly could, that this was a “world wide war on terrorism”. Those countries, in Europe, who chose to stick their heads in the sand and ignore his advice, forgot what inviting targets they made, with their posteriors waving in the breeze, and are now beginning to suffer the consequences.

This is going to get ugly… and much worse… before it gets any better. In any event, the US should stay out of Europe’s troubles this time. Besides… they have NATO!

Whoops! I forgot. France pulled out of NATO! Well, well, well!

National Health Insurance. America's Nightmare!







This Post appeared originally on: January 20th, 2005


National Health Insurance? No way!

“National Health Insurance” is one of the primary tools used by a government to control her people. That alone is enough for we to be whole-heartedly against it.

Now, lets get something straight… I believe the Health Insurance Companies, in America, deserve what they get. They have been, in my opinion, abusing their subscribers for entirely too long. Rates have risen thru the roof at an undeservedly fast pace. Sure medical costs have gone up, but not at the percentages your insurance premiums have gone up. This has to stop. But National Health Care is a cure worse than the disease.

More government in our lives is more than just a little bit scary. Once National Healthcare is implemented, and don’t get me wrong, I believe some form will be, your life will be under the control of the administrators of that insurance.

For Instance, lets say you have an obesity problem. You have developed a heart problem as a result of the obesity. You need treatment for your heart. National Health Care says: “OK, we will not pay for the heart treatment until you lose weight”. Or, they provide all citizens with a chart, approved by the FDA, of the “Approved Foods” all citizens should eat. They make it clear that if you cannot show proof of having ingested those “approved” foods, on a regular basis, also decided by them, you Health Insurance is no good. You will not receive treatment.

Or, another example, you may be allowed to have one child only. It must be a boy. (See China.) If you choose to have another baby, after the approved ONE, the costs will come out of your pocket. Get the picture?

Now, this does not take into account the reduced quality of care we will receive from the medical community. Their hearts will not be it. After 8 years. or so, in school, to learn their profession and they will become “salaried government employees”. Need I say more?

The left is hell-bent on imposing such a system on the citizens of this country. That is another reason we must refuse them power, ever again, in the Congress. At least in numbers large enough to affect legislation.

National Health Care is a Socialist dream. It is also a Conservative’s worst nightmare.

We must be on our guard, for some form of National Health Care is about to raise its ugly head in the Nation’s legislature. It is time for conservatives to exercise their power and stop it in its tracks as we did the “Clinton Care” attempt in the ‘90s.

Lets get it done.

Frenchmen Defend Paris! You're Kidding... Right??



What’s to say about the Muslim riots in France?

Well, first… I gotta stop laughing! Oh, this is good! This is rich! The picture in my mind… of Frenchmen actually defending Paris? Oh, Ho!!!! This is just too funny!

Ok, I’ve got it under control, for the moment! Ahem! Wheeyew!

Ok, Europe, take note: This is what happens when you feed the alligator… in hopes that it will eat you last! (Tip of the hat to Winston Churchill!) As the French are learning … appeasement is not all it’s cracked-up to be!

Anybody want to bet that when this is all over France will be a Muslim nation? Check the figures and you’ll see that in less than two generations the majority of Frenchmen will be Muslim. France is well on its way to becoming a Muslim, rather than a Christian nation.

Somehow, it seems totally possible to hear the Muslim call to prayer wafting over the city of Paris in a few years.

I am having difficulty digesting the propaganda that Islam is a religion of peace. Look around you! We have worldwide war, ongoing, against Islamic terrorist. The religion of peace, indeed! If you believe that… I have this bridge in Brooklyn I can make you a deal on…..

If there is a lesson for the US in what is happening in France right now, it is that we’d better look to our own Muslim community here, in the States, and insure that this does not have a chance to happen here.

In the meantime, I’m gonna sit back and enjoy the spectacle from France, on our TV screens. I hope France understands there will be no US troops this time. They’re on their own!

Keep an eye on the Eiffel Tower for the white flag to be run up at any time!

(Oh, one thing... as an aside, I was watching Hugo Chavez, of Venezuela, jumping up and down, and inciting a riot in Argentina today. I have a suggestion for Mr. Chavez… Hey, Hugo, baby! Remember Panama?)

Now, where was I… Ummm. Oh yes, the French surrender. I wonder if the French have any idea how much we are enjoying this? I sincerely hope so!

Dear Mr. President...Keep Rove!



The human mind can only crunch so much input then it has to exercise one of two options, either stop processing, or simply accept all input as correct, and true, and stick it in a memory cell somewhere to be brought forth on demand

Really sharp people know this… and they know that repetition, and repetition, is the key to flooding a persons processing capacity. In the advertising business we call it R&R.

What am I leading up to? I refer you to the title of this piece.

The airwaves, and the broadcast bands, are being flooded, by the Democrats and the “Mediacrats” of the MSM (Mainstream Media), with calls for Karl Rove’s resignation. Rove has been assigned blame for everything since the "Great Flood" of Noah’s time. “He must go”!, they shout to the cameras, and microphones, in a cacophony of propaganda, the likes of which, we have not seen since Nazi Germany.

Finally, they get a small portion of the public’s attention and then that small portion wants to know what it is, exactly, Mr. Rove has done?

Well, see, uh… that’s a little difficult to explain. The public persists, they want to know! The Democrats, and Mediacrats, know... the only answer they can give is… Rove has beaten them at their own game time and time again. You see that, right there, is a crime in the eyes of the Democrat Party.

You must understand, the Democrats believe they have a "Divine Right" to hold power in the US. Their belief is much akin to that of the “Divine Right of Kings”.

When the people of the country threw them out of power, you see, it had to be a mistake! Those awful Republicans must have stolen the election… twice! Oh, the humanity!

Karl Rove has handed the Democrats defeat, after defeat, over the years and they THINK they have a chance to destroy him now. That, Dear Reader, is what is behind the rabid attacks on Rove and the Bush Administration.

Please do not delude yourself into believing they actually care about the so- called “CIA leak”. That’s just the vehicle upon which they hope to ride Rove out of town.

Personally, I hope Rove stays. If for no other reason than to drive the Democrats and the Mediacrats nuts!

Oh, for future reference, the word “Mediacrat”, on this blog site, is meant to refer to the Democrats with a microphone, a TV camera, and/or a printing press. (You know...like the alphabet networks.)

So the story of the poor defeated “Dems” on Capitol Hill continues. Watch this spot for further developments!

Secret CIA Prisons? Great News! They're on the Job!



So, the CIA has secret prisons in Europe, Eastern Europe, Asia, and the Middle East, eh?

Apparently they weren’t secret enough! Else, there is a very good chance that someone inside the CIA is leaking!

While the left-wingers nearly wet themselves with orgasmic euphoria over this piece of news, it brought a wince of concern to those of us who treasure our freedom.

The airheads don’t seem to understand that there are a number of excellent reasons to have secret prisons in undisclosed locations around the world in which to place prisoners we do not want the enemy to know we have in our possession. While information is being extracted from the “secret prisoners” we will have 100% control over the information and it’s use without, I repeat, without the enemy even knowing we have it!

Now, these prisoners are Al Qaeda terrorists and they are not covered by the Geneva conventions! These are stateless terrorists. They belong to no county’s organized armed forces. They wear the uniform of no country. But… I grow weary of repeating this bit of enlightenment to our friends on the Left. I am afraid the truth only confuses them.

Reports tell us these “hidden internment” compounds are an extremely important part of the US government’s “War on Terrorism”. This is an Unconventional War. Simply put that means that battles will not NECESSARILY be fought on battlefields, in firefights. There will be “snatch and grabs”, outright kidnappings, assassinations and whatever it takes to weaken and finally break the enemy.

When this war began the President told us, plainly, there would be battles we’d hear about and some we would not hear about. These secret prisons are an important part of this war.

For these prisons to be effective they must be kept secret from the public and most of Congress. Can you imagine just how quickly the left-wingers in Congress would rush to the nearest microphone, and TV Camera, to spew their “concern” for the welfare of the enemy? Land speed records would surely fall.

Frankly, I am not troubled with concern for the welfare of this country’s enemies. I daresay, I couldn’t care less. Whatever it takes to keep my family, and my country safe from their terrorism is OK with me. I’m not into winning hearts and minds, thank you. I am into winning the war… by whatever means necessary.

Senate Democrats Have Nervous Breakdown!


Yesterday the Democrats in the US Senate had what has the appearance of a collective nervous breakdown.

The strain finally got to them and they folded. Their paranoia led them to have Harry Reid, the Minority Leader of the Senate, to call for a closed session of the Senate to go over information already investigated time and again. It’s the old WMD story again!

Bill Frist, the Senate Majority Leader was reported to have said that he can no longer trust Reid. (My only question for Mr. Frist is... whatever led him to believe he could trust Reid, or any other Democrat Senator, in the first place???)

So now, we have proof positive that the "Looney Left" has indeed, taken control of a once great political party in the US and is driving it to destruction.

So far as calls for Vice-President Cheney to step down... that’s fine with me… so long as the President replaces him with Condi Rice, thus, setting the table for the Presidential run against Hillary in ’08. The positioning would be just perfect. So, the Dems might want to reconsider that. No, they won’t. They appear not to have the collective intelligence to reason that far.

If there was any doubt that the Democratic Party has imploded, yesterday’s stunt in the Senate is ample proof.

But, you know, they have no idea how ridiculous that looks! That is the thing that just baffles me! I keep waiting for a “grown-up” in the Democrat Party to say, “Wait a Minute, this is wrong! This is ridiculous. We need to rethink this and consider our public image.” But they don’t. They no longer have the capacity... and, as a result, their clown act continues.

One thing is for sure; the Republicans in the US Senate will have to continue to apply pressure. If the Democrats are intent on self-destruction we should lend assistance at every opportunity.

In a way, I feel pity for them because everything they have tried failed. It has been one failure after another. They have no hope of success, anytime soon, and they are bereft of ideas and find themselves falling back on stunts, and prolonged camera time, to condemn the Republicans, and disrupt the business of the US Senate, and the country.

Now, if we can only get them to mount a filibuster against Judge Alito….

Battle Royal! Bring It On !



President Bush took the rains in his teeth yesterday (10-31-05), and with both hands, he led an all out attack at the American Political Left with his nomination of Judge Samuel Alito to fill the vacancy on the US Supreme Court!

The weeping, and wailing, and gnashing of teeth began almost instantly. Chuck Schumer nearly broke a land speed record getting to a camera, and microphone, to bewail this horrible attack upon “Mainstream America”.


Chuck, ole son, it gives me great joy to tell you that “Mainstream America” is not Liberal! Believe it, or not, Chuck, there is a whole lot of country outside the borders of New York! That “flyover country” you Libs see, from the “window” of you airliner, as you fly from the liberal northeast to the liberal left coast... all that country between those two points... IS Conservative Country!

The Bishop (of Liberalism), Teddy Kennedy, about had apoplexy! He is still blustering!

Finally, the battle we have been gearing up for will be joined! This will be a grand spectacle of democracy in action.

Alito will be confirmed. There will be a lot of sound and fury, but in the end, he will take his seat on the Court. A Court which will now have a decidedly rightward cant to it.

Now a little about Judge Alito:


Samuel A. Alito, Jr.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Jump to:
navigation, search

Samuel A. Alito Jr. (born
April 1, 1950) is a judge on the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. His ideological likeness to United States Supreme Court Associate Justice Antonin Scalia has earned him the nickname "Scalito."
Alito was born in
Trenton, New Jersey. He graduated from Princeton University with an A.B. in 1972, and went to Yale Law School, where he earned a J.D. in 1975. From 1981 to 1985 he was Assistant to the United States Solicitor General, and was Deputy assistant to the U.S. attorney general from 1985 to 1987. After a brief stint as U.S. Attorney for the district of New Jersey, he was nominated by George H. W. Bush in 1990 to the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. His chambers are in Newark, New Jersey.
With the announced retirement of
Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor in 2005, Alito was widely reported as being narrowly passed-over as her replacement by the Bush Administration, having been edged-out by close personal Bush aide and confidant, Harriet Miers. With Mier's nomination retracted on October 27, 2005, speculation again surfaced of Alito's possible nomination to the post.

… and today, 10-31-05, we saw that possibility realized.

The President has made a dramatic comeback and now has his base onboard.

This is what the 2000 election, and the 2004 election, was all about… the Supreme Court.

Now, Conservatives will rally around the President and push this nomination through the Senate Judiciary Committee and through a vote of the full US Senate… even unto confirmation!
