Ahmadinejad will speak at Columbia University

So what? If people don’t want to hear what he has to say then just don’t listen. I don’t see why it is such a big deal. I also don’t see the harm in his wanting to “pay his respects” at ground zero. We are giving him just what he wants by refusing to allow him to place a wreath. Now that being said he probably is evil and doesn’t have good intentions. But by attempting to limit him or censor when & where he can speak he only gains support. We will once again be viewed as the bad guy. He would benefit less if we didn’t keep re-enforcing his supporters hatred towards the US. A little reverse psychology would go a long way towards eliminating the intense hatred many in the middle east feel towards the west. The “cowboy” approach only adds fuel to the fire. The biig guns might win a battle but will never truly win over hearts and minds.

Memorial Day
Traditional: May 30
Observed: last Monday of May (05-28-2007)

U.S. Memorial Day History and Information on U.S. War Memorials
Memorial Day started off as a somber day of remembrance, a day where we in America go to cemeteries and place flags or flowers on the graves of our war dead. It is a day where we remember our ancestors, our family members, our loved ones who have given the ultimate sacrifice.

Support the troops End the war
Take action May 26th, 27th, 28th.
If Americans across the country rise up and demand an end to this war, Congress will find the courage to take decisive action, and the president will find he has no choice.

There’s HUNGER For Impeachment. Will We Feed It
With his usual visionary courage, in introducing H.Res. 333 Dennis Kucinich is saying what we all know, but which most of the rest of our behind the curve politicians are still too afraid to say. The Bush administration, and Richard B. Cheney in particular, has committed high crimes against the people and interests of the United States of unprecedented magnitude. We have created a VOTING action page on this issue which already has over 15,000 submissions just since yesterday. VOTING ACTION PAGE: Should there be an impeachment investigation NOW

Boston Authorities are Paranoid

A marketing campaign was mistaken as an IED. Give me a break Boston PD. A cartoon promotion with a funny neon dude giving the finger is no treat to national security. I can’t help but wonder exactly how they determined it was dangerous? The placement? OK then let’s just freak out every time someone litters on a bridge or over-pass. Or could it be the batteries? Boy that means my kids have a toy box full of dangerous devices. Oh yeah it had wires!!! Oh shit look out!. I would think they would be able to determine the harmless nature of this in short order. It’s not as if somebody claimed it was a bomb or something. I hope whoever first called this in is proud of themselves. We live in a paranoid world thanks to september 11th. Which of course has been repeatedly magnified by the Bush administration’s repeated cries that we should all cower in fear. Let’s all be afraid together so the big bad people will not get us. What ever happened to the only thing to fear is fear itself. The government is playing into the hands of terrorists by insisting we should all be afraid and look out for bad guys around every corner.

Flavored Coffee

January 1, 2007 on 3:40 pm | In Junk Drawer | 5 Comments

I like Suisse Mocha, and it sure is better than plain old ground whole bean coffee for a change. I take my coffee black and drink coffee all day every day. But I do like to make a change every now and then to something with a little more flavor & sweetness. Today my choise is Suisse Mocha and it really hit the spot! :)

So much for an all volunteer military

August 23, 2006 on 6:56 am | In Junk Drawer | 1 Comment

With our troops being stretched to there limits in Iraq & Afghanistan many of our brave men & women are choosing not to volunteer for repeated tours of duty. It seems the days of enlisting for a four year term and getting out are over for now. Many call this a backdoor draft which is somewhat accurate. Although all who serve do agree to the option of being called up from inactive reserves once completing their active obligations, I doubt many would have seen this as actual reality until recently. This will just add to the short falls on new enlistments in the long run. Today’s reality is that a new recruit knows going in that the four year tour of duty is a thing of the past. Nobody likes to enter into a contract with an unknown term, which is what this amount to. The negative impact on troup moral will gradually spiral downward as more and more are forced to serve beyond their original active obligation. Recruiting numbers will be severly impacted which will continue the need for involuntary recalls.
