It’s just a Republican scandal?

The news media is reporting this whole deal with Jack Abramoff like it’s only a Republican scandal! They have pretty much totally ignored the Democrats in this whole deal. Yet, they have some big figures that will wind up in hot water here. Names like Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi, along with one of... Sign in to see full entry.

Mr. Sharon is in tough shape

Ariel Sharon is having a rough go of it at this time. The massive stroke that he suffered will probably leave him incapacitated in some form. He will probably never recover enough to be the leader of Israel again. He is a tough old bird though. You never know what might happen to him. The peace... Sign in to see full entry.

Virginia Tech; this was funny

Virginia Tech is "embarassed" by the actions of its quarterback, Marcus Vick, in Monday’s Gator Bowl game. Vick purposely stomped on the calf of a Louisville player. AFTER the game Tech has a problem with it. Boy, is that a bit convenient! Head coach, Frank "Hazy" Beamer, said he did not see the... Sign in to see full entry.

It’s just my opinion

Several of us had a spirited discussion yesterday about the "spying" issue in our country. I made a very short entry on a quote from the President and may comments back and forth followed. Corbin chimed in with what I thought was a great comment about when a person from the right makes a comment... Sign in to see full entry.

‘If al-Qaida is calling you, we’d like to know why’

Does this not just sum up the whole deal on the "spying" issue? This quote from President Bush tells it all. There is not much more than needs to be said. Sign in to see full entry.

Did I miss something on the spying thing?

I have watched and read much on our government allegedly "spying". I have not understand the stand the left takes on this. It would seem an ardent conservative such as myself would not agree with such a program. I want the government out of my life as much as possible. So why do I think this is no...

The United States is a great and benevolent nation

I am writing this post in response to a blog from “hemlocker” and some comments to his post about how imperial this great land of ours is. We don’t have an imperialist bone in our body here in the United States. We could easily take over and dominate the world if we wanted to. Our goal, aim, and... Sign in to see full entry.

Do you think this is fair reporting?

In the LSU-Miami game last night a “brawl” ensued after the game. The reports right after the game said the brawl occurred when several Miami players got irritated with LSU wide receiver Dwayne Bowe, who is a Miami native and friend of several Miami players. The Miami players took exception to the... Sign in to see full entry.

Who lost their civil rights?

A thought occurred to me last night as I sat and ate dinner with my wife and niece. I am sure this idea has been expressed in many places and maybe even here on Blogit, but I decided to write this down just in case no one has mentioned it. With all the “spying” by President Bush (that’s what the... Sign in to see full entry.

Suicide, make that Homicide Blast at West Bank checkpoint

I don’t really have a favored side in the Jewish-Palestinian problem in the Middle East. I have to admit that it does look like the Israelis play the game a bit fairer than the Palestinians. Israel has given up some land and dismantled settlements, but the bombing continues by the Palestinians. Why... Sign in to see full entry.
