I like Beck, to a point; he does get a little too "Dale Gribble" at times, for me, but I've read most of his books, and I do like how he puts complex issues into terms the common person can understand. His analysis of the Global Warming scam was very informative. Also, I don't believe I've ever seen the words "Tri-Lateral Commission", or even "Illuminati" in any of them. I sometime watch him on Fox, but rarely listen to his radio show, however; he tends to meander
Will the Tiger Woods feeding frenzy be coming to an end any time soon? Okay…he’s apologized; good for him. Why do we care? For myself, I don't care so much about his personal affairs (pun intended), but I do hold some opinions about the media's strong (over)reaction to the whole sordid affair (again, pun intended). I mean, isn’t his “sex addiction” and its accompanying issues, pretty much between Woods and his wife, anyway? I w
[quote]or maybe it was big industry and their interests, was Hitler really in power or rather a weak dictator (thesis of Hans Mommsen) - there are many different interpretations of this very question.[/quote]---utemia Now to me, this idea is historical revisionism at its most insidious and heinous. Adolf Hitler was worshipped virtually as a god; he somehow convinced Germany that his views were the correct ones, and an overwhelmingly vast majority swallowed it wh

Targeting innocents is never right, but the taking of the war to the civilians, when it became apparent that his policies and rhetoric were no defense against allied bombers, it went a long
"I had said that in the context of each drone attack. Not every day as you put."---Bahu (reply #12)  
Two points here: [quote]Unmanned programmed air stikes seem to be by their very nature a new kind of warfare.[/quote]--Bahu Well, yes and no; missle attacks, obviously unmanned, on distant targets have been going on for many years. Just ask Quadaffi; Reagan bitch-slapped him by punching a destroyer-launched cruise missle through his palace at the height of his bad behavior. Subsequently, he disappeared for about 20 years, only coming back around after 9/11, offeri
As an American, I just wanna know where Bahu's getting his info. For example: " In each drone attack at least 20 to 30 people are being killed and in certain instances not a single militant was on the spot."---Bahu "In this process a large number of innocent men and women and children are being killed everyday and the drone a
I've said it before, and I'll say it again: not all Muslims are terrorists, but all of Islam supports terrorism. Wherever Islam springs up, violence follows, and the larger the Muslim population grows, the worse it gets, because they start pushing for their "rights", which are never, ever, conducive to the rights of non-Muslims. This guy is a hero to his own people--whether or not they want to understand it--and even to the world.
Sad, what is considered "art" these days. Ugly, weird images of darkness and freakishness. Seems to be more an idea of "how freaky a picture can you draw?"
The Weirton paper is very fair that way; they run pretty much any letter they get, as long as it's coherent (some of those, barely so) and civil (again, some--especially many aimed at me--barely so). Some say it's simply because they're desperate for space-filler, but I've had some letters that didn't make it, some that I was very proud of, though, and was thusly reduced to posting them here! They're very balanced, compared to other places I've lived. The Fort Wayne (IN)&
I don't ned breast augmentation....my wife's boobs are HUUUUGE![e digicons]:P[/e] It'll onlyh be a matter of time, before sex changes are government-funded, along with abortions and other selective medical procedures liberals favor.

Below is a letter I wrote to the editor of my local paper, which ran yesterday. Mine is a very liberalism-dominated area, being a slowly dying steel town, decimated by rampant unionism and Democrat policies. I write a lot of LTEs, and must be having some kind of an effect, because I come under a lot of fire from liberal writers, who often get nasty with me. <
Yep; I feel ya, Doc. I'm on something of a diet myself; the doctor didn't put me insulin, after all, but he did insist that I watch what I eat, and exercise more. So, as I sit here on my sedentary butt, typing, enjoying coffee and a couple chocolate chip cookies, I salute you for your discipline.

My wife bought a bunch of that snacky, "gifty" stuff you generally buy in the baskets and tins; cheese, cracker spreads, that sort of thing, but this stuff was just individually priced, and loose in a bin; from broken cases and such, I'd assume. She'd intended to assemble all this into baskets of her own making and design, which she does very well. One thing she bought was a goodly-sized Hillshire Farms "Summer Sausage", hence the title; well, I managed t
A co-worker today was telling everyone to send non-perishable food items and hygiene products to the Salvation Army, and they'll get them to Haiti, for the relief effort. It's truly terrible, what has happened there; it's always terrible, when disaster strikes anywhere, but especially a Third World country , which can't fend for itself, anyway. This situation brough

You know what's really ridiculous, though? Black people do speak differently than whites, [e digicons]8C[/e] and we're making an issue of how they don't; makiing a politician, like him or not, apologize for telling the truth. All because it's not PC. It's stupid. Tell me you can't tell the difference--99 times out of 100--when you answer the phone, and hear the other person speak. You can usually tell black or white, just by the voice. I mean, even more, I don't
Though I don't see it as a "global conspiracy", I do see how statistical data and other information that is purposely skewed at the source, to generate a pre-conceived result, and then used for further research conducted by other, more ethical, scientists, could certainly make it seem so. It makes me wonder how the real conspiracists slept at night; with the shaky foundation of lies and manipulation this whole thing sits upon, and their reputations and livelih
Know what's the worst part about being a diabetic? Nothing that's good is good for you. Now, I know that that's a general rule, all in all, but it takes on new meaning, when it involves diabetes. Nothing I really love to eat, I can eat. What doesn't have sugar, has carbs, which turn into sugars, once my body gets done with them. I even have to watch out for some vegetables, and all fruits. I love fried foods; carbs. Pasta; carbs. Pizza; carbs. Chocolate; sugar, carbs. Cookies
I'm wondering if AJ has ever heard of Trent Lott...... They made him go on BET and apologize for speaking his mind, and his comments weren't truly racist, or even about a black man. When you're a Democrat, it's just different. [quote who="Basmas" reply="7" id="2503518"]Well seing as I hear this from the UK most respected radio news show.

[quote who="AldericJourdain" reply="7" id="2502052"]That's the thing RW. I've been kicking myself in the ass recently because I remember reading something (an article about a study) that mentions that as the climate gets worse (or fluxuates) the weather will get funkier. For the life of me I can't remember where that article was, otherwise i would link to it. ~AJ [/quote] I've met other people who hold to this view. What's so funky about snow and cold in winter? H
It's been snowing, off and on, for nine days straight, where I live. Temperature right now is 22 degree F. As I write this, the current temps in the following cities are: Pyongyang, N.

AJ, I don't have to say a word about your post. You proved every point I was trying to make. Utterly and completely. Thanks much.
As I write this, there's about 8 inches of snow on the ground, today's high was 25 degrees, and a big snowstorm is expected this weekend, beginning tomorrow night. I'm just sayin'. There are five “O’s” in liberalism: (Willfully) Oblivious, (Deliberately) Obtuse, (Hysterical) Overreaction, (Ignoring the) Obvious, and (Unreasoning) Outrage. One of the greatest examples of this is the recent revel
