In case you’re wondering why I haven’t said much about the situation in Afghanistan, it’s because I’ve got kids over there. IN. HARM’S. WAY. I had to take four breaks to get this graphic done. I can’t even look at the headlines about that other thing without feeling the veins on my neck bulge alarmingly.
Feb 24, 2012: Shepard Fairey, the creator of the Barack Obama “HOPE” poster, pled guilty to destroying some documents and fabricating others to cover up his use of an Associated Press photograph to make the poster.
NOTE: My family has had numerous contacts with good, peace-loving Muslims. I do not condemn all Muslims any more than I condemn all priests for the sins of the tiny number of pedophiles who have caused so much damage to individuals and to the institution they were sworn to serve.
I think the good people who practice Islam are in a tough place and I pray God will grant them the graces they need to combat the extremists who violate the rights of others to live and worship freely.

“The Quran’s that were burned had been written in by inmates. That in itself is a violation of the Quran. The only sanctioned mode of disposal for a defiled Quran is to burn it. Which is what they did.”
In May 2009, military personnel threw away, and ultimately burned, confiscated Bibles that were printed in the two most common Afghan languages amid concern they would be used to try to convert Afghans.
Did Christians riot? Did any of us murder anybody?
Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich said President Obama “surrendered” Thursday when he apologized to the Afghan government for the burning of several Qurans at an American military base near Kabul, noting Obama had not called on the Afghan government to issue an apology for the deaths of two NATO soldiers who were killed by a man wearing an Afghan army uniform.
“There seems to be nothing that radical Islamists can do to get Barack Obama’s attention in a negative way,” Gingrich said, “and he is consistently apologizing to people who do not deserve the apology of the president of the United States, period.”
“If Hamid Karzai, the president of Afghanistan, doesn’t feel like apologizing, then we should say, ‘Goodbye and good luck, we don’t need to be here risking our lives and wasting our money on somebody who doesn’t care.'”

“In Dearborn Michigan it is like being in a Middle Eastern Country. The Islamic call to prayer blasts out all across the city on loud speakers several times a day. The Christian churches around Dearborn cannot ring their bells because it offends the Muslims.”
I hurried through my route today to rush home and fire up the univac with the anticipation of a child on Christmas morning.I do so enjoy reading what everybody has to say.The real beauty of our country is the diversity of its population and everyone has a unique set of life experiences to draw on.Sharing what we have learned as we travel through this life enriches all of us.
To all the lurkers out there:
Ours is a small,user-friendly site.We don’t have tens of thousands of people or threads with hundreds of comments so what you have to add to the conversation is seen and appreciated.There is no such thing as a dumb question(unless you’re talking to Helen Thomas.) If you’re looking for a respite from the tsunami of cynicism and negativity that will crescendo as the elections draw near,you have a home.Welcome.
THEY THINK YOU ARE STUPID
Obama points fingers at everyone but himself for the soaring price of gas and the media whores dutifully fall in line.
ROMNEY,SANTORUM RIP INTO EACH OTHER AT PIVOTAL DEBATE
I actually stayed up to watch most of this.It was truly painful.If Santorum lets Romney pimp-slap him,imagine what the Magic Negro would do with the media whores asking the questions.
GINGRICH:IT’S ‘UTTERLY STUPID’ TO SAY YOU CAN’T CONTROL THE BORDER
I still say,finish the fence,beef up the Border Patrol with 30,000 armed National Guard troops with orders to return fire if fired upon.That would do it.Or this.
No interviews,no sightseeing or shopping.Their advisors said it would look bad to show off their lifestyle while everybody else is hurting.She took pains not to draw any attention to herself.
I must confess I enjoyed reading yesterday’s comments as much as I have any in quite a while.
Chrissy and I spend hours researching and posting for you,and we do it out of love.
But the best soloist in the world cannot replicate the fullness of a choir.I know you all appreciate our work,but it is meant to stimulate you to express how you feel.Getting people involved is the only way for our little group to grow.We are surely facing some trying times ahead and we need to support each other to keep our focus on what’s really important.
GP,I could only be your bodyguard if you can come up with bail money.I’m not in physical condition for a confrontation so it’s easier to just shoot somebody.I don’t suffer fools lightly and I don’t intimidate well.
SCOTUS MAY POSTPONE OBAMACARE RULING UNTIL 2016
It makes it that much more important to elect a real Republican and take control of the Senate this year.Remember Bush signed McCain-Feingold thinking that SCOTUS would surely overturn it.They didn’t.Take absolutely nothing for granted. http://www.therightscoop.com/four-more-years-scotus-may-postpone-obamacare-ruling-until-2016/
SHARPTONGUE LASHES OUT AT ‘FAKE CHRISTIANS,’ LIKE FRANKLIN GRAHAM
Keep in mind this pile of chocolate goo started his street-corner preachin’ at the age of 5. He’s gotten bigger physically,especially his piehole.Emotionally,he’s regressed.

LATEST POLL SHOWS OBAMA MORE UNPOPULAR THAN GEORGE W. BUSH
This is from the leftist PPP poll;it only took three years.
They dumped raw sewage on W for eight solid years to get his approval this low.
They sprinkle fairy dust on this dictator-wannabe.
