President Obama Setting Up Syria As The Next Afghanistan

As opposition grew against the Soviet backed government in Afghanistan in the 1970′s, in one of the last ‘battles’ of the cold war, the US government decided to support the anti-Afghan government mujahideen. This support became even more pronounced after the Soviet Union occupied Afghanistan. We poured weapons and money to the mujahideen and took [...]

I Stand With Rand Paul On This One

Generally speaking I find filibusters to be a waste of time…and I find the paper pushing type to be totally abhorrent. But there are a few times when they serve a specific purpose and surprisingly, I find myself in agreement with Senator Rand Paul on this one!

For nearly 13 hours, Senator Rand Paul held [...]

Sen. Lindsey Graham Reminds Me Of The Disgusting Stuff I Have To Scrape Off My Shoe:

Senator Lindsey Graham (R – SC) can’t seem to overcome his fixation with the tragedy at Benghazi last September 11th and vows to hold up Senate confirmations for President Obama’s nominees for Defense Secretary and CIA Director until the White House provides more answers about the incident.

Hey Senator! Four very brave Americans died in [...]

In Honor Of

I always like to link to this song on this day, because, dammit, we need optimism and hope with our remembrance.

Further, this speech, by far the best George W Bush ever gave, needs to be read aloud, twice, by every Republican everywhere (and a lot of Democrats, too, including those rubber-stamping the Drone [...]

While Visions of John Wayne Dance in their Heads

Immediately after a gun tragedy like Aurora Colorado or here in Oak Creek Wisconsin, the proponents of concealed carry begin their litany chant of IF ONLY!

Open Comment to Mitt Romney on the Sikh Temple Tragedy in Oak Creek!

From Republican Presidential Candidate Mitt Romney:

Ann and I extend our thoughts and prayers to the victims of today’s shooting in Wisconsin. This was a senseless act of violence and a tragedy that should never befall any house of worship

Praying ain’t gettin’ the job done.

Open Comment to Pres. Obama on the Sikh Temple Tragedy in Oak Creek!

From the President this afternoon:

At this difficult time, the people of Oak Creek must know that the American people have them in our thoughts and prayers, and our hearts go out to the families and friends of those who were killed and wounded

As I noted earlier, the prayers ain’t gettin’ it done!

Most Shaming? Republican? Neo-Nazi? Militia Member? Who Knows?

As far as I can tell, Jason Todd Ready, who yesterday killed a few family members and then, presumably, himself, seemed proud of his affiliations with Neo-Nazis and illegal militias. Was he as equally proud of his affiliation with the Republican Party? Gosh, who knows? It is all so open to interpretation.

Hey, I’ve [...]

Free For All

Terrible Ted Nugent made news recently. No it was not his endorsement of Tommy Thompson or Mitt Romney that made news. It was this anti American crazed rant that made the headlines:

Which shows not only how unhinged that Ted and many of the far right loons are, but also how extreme the NRA [...]
