Putin Does Not Like Lists-At Least Some Lists

Posted on April 14, 2013 by | Leave a comment

President Vladimir Putin enjoys making lists of anyone in his nation who dares to challenge his right to  decide what to say or when to say anything. Thus, he is  very upset because the United States government has developed a list of Russian officials who are responsible for the death of innocent people. The “Magnitsky Act” was passed by Congress to protest the murder of a lawyer in Russia who was working to uncover corruption in that blessed land. The State Department now has a list of Russian officials whose presence in this nation is not allowed. These people have their bank accounts frozen and are denied visas.

The Russian government made clear “the appearance of some lists will unquestionably have a negative immpact on US-Russian bilateral relations.” We assume the Russian government will develop a list of undesirable Americans who     spend their time fighting for human rights. Fair enough trade off-thug lists for democracy lover lists.

Jihad Is Just My Name

Posted on April 12, 2013 by | Leave a comment

A three year old boy appeared one day at his nursery school wearing a tee shirt that said: “I am a bomb: Jihad, born on September 11.” People in the small French village were horrified at this open display at violence to their fair community. I gather they checked his diaper in case it contained a bomb. The mother was charged in court with glorifying the Islamic terrorist attack on September 11, 2001. Mom argued that her son was born on September 1 and that she was merely signifying the fact that Jihad was a common name in the Arab world. Her brother gave her son the tee shirt.

A court discharged this silly attempt to convict someone of naming their son, Jihad and making a reference to the attack on the World Trade Center. Certainly, there are more important issues dealing with crime than what a three year old wears on his tee shirt.

Of course, in the name of security, make certain the child’s diaper is checked each day for a bomb.

Jimmy Carter, A Real American

Posted on April 9, 2013 by | Leave a comment

Jimmy Carter has spent his post presidency years being described as a failure. He did lose the 1980  election to Ronald Reagan, the man who spoke very well, and acted very poorly. People like Obama still refer to Reagan as a successful president. Ron assumed the presidency when the National Debt was $900 Trillion and left when it was now $2 Trillion 800 Billion. He helped destroy labor unions and reduced taxes on the wealthy. Carter was honest, not an excellent idea for a president.

1. He warned of global warming and urged reduction on oil use.

2.  He did not send our national debt sky high.

3. He remains the only American president who actually negotiated a peace treaty between Israel and Arab nations.

Carter spent his post presidency working with the poor, he works to eradicate disease throughout the world.  He has negotiated with North Korea, and obtained an agreement that was ended by George Bush. He never used being president as a means of making money. A good man.

Iraq Redeux

Posted on April 9, 2013 by | Leave a comment

We are coming to the tenth anniversary of American troops entering  Baghdad in 2003 and overthrowing the dictatorship of Saddam Hussein. John Howard was Prime Minister of Australia in 2003 and warmly supported the war in Iraq. Today, ten years later, he claims disbanding the Iraq army in 2003 “was a mistake” and getting rid of anyone who belonged to the Baath party “went too far.”Howard went on “the post invasion conflict, especially between Sunnis and Shiites..did more damage.. to the credibility o f the coaliton operation in Iraq than the failure to find stockpiles of WMD.”

Like his buddy George Bush, the prime minister continues to insist invading Iraq was the right thing to do. He went on to argue that Arab Spring was an outcome of the Iraq war. Dream on, John, dream on.

Did “Surge” Actually Succeed?

Posted on April 9, 2013 by | Leave a comment

During the recent confirmation hearing for Chuck Hagel his former friend and now foes, Senator John McCain demanded an answer to the question as to whether Hagel would now admit his opposition to the famous “surge”led by General David Petraeus was wrong. Hagel refused to give a yes or no answer. Senator McCain now has an answer to his question. Eight years AFTER the surge, car bombs rocked the city of Baghdad. Nine bombers, including suicide insurgents, blasted away leaving anywhere from 31 to 50 dead and overt 150 wounded. Terrorism never halted despite the “surge” which allegedly halted violence in the capital.

John McCain was wrong about the  surge just as he has been wrong regarding violence in the Middle East. In reality, the surge did produce an immediate benefit of REDUCING violence due to efforts of Sunni Awakening Councils which  dealt with al-Qaeda. After Prime Minister Maliki took power he refused to work with Sunni leaders and this led to renewed violence. Sorry, Senator McCain, it was NOT Petraeus who led to reduced violence, it was the Awakening Councils!

Death Takes No Holiday In Afghanistan

Posted on April 7, 2013 by | Leave a comment

To the average American soldier serving overseas it must appear as though wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have gone on and on. Actually, the only war to surpass these conflicts in length was in Vietnam. Another day in Afghanistan, more deaths in that far away  land, and the end of violence is no where in sight. A suicide   bomber drove his car into a convoy of Americans and killed himself along with three soldiers and a few Afghans. Elsewhere in Afghanistan another suicide bomber killed self and a soldier.

I frequently wonder how I would  feel after four or six or God knows how many deployments in Afghanistan violence continues, my buddies still die or get wounded and  all too many of my friends return home with Post Traumatic  Stress Disorder. Yes, they suffer but those who sent them to these places of horror make thousands giving lectures and writing articles justifying the deaths of the innocent. Say, is that guy, George, still chopping wood in Texas??

Anyone Seen Barack Lately??

Posted on April 7, 2013 by | Leave a comment

Barack Obama was always the smartest kid in class, the one who raised his hand with the correct answer and wrote a beautiful essay to explain his views on what was being studied. He was the apple of the teacher’s eye and the one who got a recommendation for a scholarship or award. He did brilliantly at college, and wound up with excellent recommendations for whatever future occupation he desired to pursue. Along the way, Barack learned to be the nice guy, the guy who never stood out as possessed with anger toward oppression. He handled oppression with kind words and deeds.

Once again, President Obama seeks to please Republicans who do NOT believe in compromise. Their interpretation of “compromise”is simply another word for surrender. Obama now discusses reductions in Social Security payments to please Republicans. The average person on Social Security gets about $1,500 a month to live on. Try living on that for a month, Mr. President. The Social Security solution is simple-maintain the same Social Security tax as present, but extend it TO ALL INCOME! Problem solved.

Past Lives Into Present

Posted on April 7, 2013 by | Leave a comment

Americans so enjoy boasting they have done away with the past and entered a new world in which skin color is not important, after all, we have a black skinned president. However, in Wilcox County in Georgia the good white skinned folk do not intend to end tradition. After all, there ancestors fought for the Confederacy during the Civil War when it was necessary to ensure that white skinned folk had the right to keep as slaves black skinned folk. It is the way God wanted things, just check the Bible if you doubt me. In the year 2013, there will be two Proms this May, one for the white folk, and one for the black folk-the way God wanted it.

Thank God, some modern white and black skinned kids decided it was time to enter the 21st century and have decided to hold a third prom-open to all color skins. Oh well, it is Georgia, sort of takes a few extra years to catch up with the rest of America.

Morsi Meanders To Dictatorship

Posted on April 4, 2013 by | Leave a comment

Ah, it was only a year ago that Egyptians believed a new era was dawning with the overthrow of President Mubarak and the end of military rule. Mr. Morsi did have a Muslim Brotherhood background, but he had spent years in the United States and understood something about democracy. Alas, that was before videos were released in which this man who supposedly represented democracy blasted away at Jews calling them apes and pigs. Frankly, being called a pig is not very kosher in my view of life. Now, President Morsi has aroused fury in the American comedy section of society by attacking noted Egyptian satirist Bassem Youssef.

Jon Stewart mocked Morsi on his comedy show for seeking to send to jail a man who pokes fun at society. The President  of Egypt is rather upset that anyone can mock him-he is THE president. Things are getting worse because the US State Department is getting tired of this petty little man. Spokesperson, Victoria Nuland expressed John Kerry’s concern of the “disturbing trend” in erosion of free speech.

I wonder if Americans are also descended from apes and pigs?

America’s Dark Secrets

Posted on April 4, 2013 by | Leave a comment

It is scarcely a decade ago that George, Don and Dick promised Americans  the war in Iraq was the beginning of a new world in the Middle East in which democracy would replace the dark dungeons of Saddam Hussein in which innocent people were tortured to death. British soldiers who worked in one of those wonderful democratic secret American prisons have now revealed what really happened under the direction of American guardians of democracy.

Iraqi prisoners were held in cells the size of a large dog kennel.

Men entered an interrogation room and left ready to physically collapse.

As one British soldier noted: ” I saw one man having his prosthetic leg pulled off him and and beaten over the head with it.”

Apparently British officers knew about the brutality but remained silent.

Ah, the good old days when George and Dick and Don were at the top of the world.
