I have been sitting in my stinky cab these last few days looking at all the people coming in from Mexico to the United States thinking if they get it. I am sure the majority of the people are ignorant of the issues of our time. Many here do have something to say. However, when you listen to them you can see that all they are doing is regurgitating the old tired democratic “your poor and you need us” lies. Of course if you ask some of these people about what is going on in America I ...
If you could read the thoughts of people, you would hear of their failures, hopes, and aspirations. Everyday all of us spend time going over our lives, sifting through what we are struggling with and what we desire. When we come to a thought that leads to a positive road, we encounter joy. There is something enriching about being able to count on something good happening in life. Sort of what makes us human is our dreams. These dreams keep us moving and working to earn our trophy. H...
When you look at it for what it is you have to acknowledge that the president had some very good initiatives from 2004 to the present. I am in agreement that social security, illegal immigration, and terrorism are the great American challenges of our time. According to the SSI office if I reach 70 years of age, I can expect a whole 667 dollars. One, I don’t think I will live that long and two I couldn’t make it on such a small amount today, much less pay for a life that is going to cos...
For a long time the Iraq security forces have been trained for service. The fact that there is serious violence in Iraq has to do with Iraq security personnel being interested in serving a loyalty to tribal gangs then to serving the citizens of Iraq. The previous described condition is an Iraq problem. However, it is very smart of the president to not tip his hand as far as what he is going to do in Iraq. If the president told the Iraqis that they had 8 months to get it in gear, you can...
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but we are all going to hell in a hand basket. I acquired my sense of American politics like everyone else; looking at news stories. For a time I thought that there was no way any could have a more cynical opinion of politicians and politics them I. I think I still hold my crown. However, ever sense revelations of a republican politician trying to get his groove on with a 17 year old page can to light I have been hearing all the talking heads go ...
The link below is my comments on the speeches given at the United nations on Sept, 20, 2006.
I wonder when we became such a divided and confused nation. The way I see it the issues we are facing are not that complicated. When tyrants misbehave and all you do is write resolutions you are no willing to back up with force, tyrants get confident that they can do what want. By the actions we see in the news of “Islamics” it is very obvious that many muslins practice hate and violence. To me this is not new. I have seen over 27 years of vicious and savage acts committed by people ...
I know president Bush has declared war on terrorism. However, have we reached the point where we are demanding that the american government search and destroy terrorist where ever they may be in the world. This question is the result of knowing that this war on terrorism is not going to be won on a battlefeild. In addition, counter-terrorism will only do so much. I think if the American government is serous about the war on terrrorism it is going to have to take action to destroy tra...
. Last night I was watching part of ABC’s 20/20 special and possible causes for the end of the world, as we know it. I got as far as Artificial Intelligence being united with military hardware and causing the machines to kill of humanity. My first impression was that this was propaganda done in order to put the last nail in the coffin of God and remove him from society. If scientists prove that the world will end very different then biblical prophecy says, then there cannot be a God...
The focus of this BLOG is our new agenda. I was reading some of the other BLOGS on JOEUSER. The thought that can to my mind is that many of us may be nothing more than whining cry babies. In effort to not be another finger pointer, I have sat down and thought about what we should be doing being that we see things the way we do in this society. The first, thing I think most of us need to work on is our bad attitude. I can see how living in a world where all the media messages are nega...
Today, after my first article I spent some time looking for some good news out of Iraq. The following quotes and observations are part of my findings. The following quotes were taken from General Casey’s Corner written by Gen. George W. Casey Jr. in This Week in Iraq (http://www.mnf-iraq.com/Publications/TWII/current.pdf) “Two years ago there were a handful of security forces. Today there are more than 268, trained and developed Iraqi security forces.” “Today, the 5th Iraqi Army...
“From the frying pan in to the fire”. Doesn’t it sometimes seen that way? The Iraqis start taking responsibility for their security, which is what is necessary for violence in Iraq to end and Iran and North Korea start to act up. Not to mention Palestine militants take an Israeli soldier hostage and Israel invades Palestine. Of course, the big question here is who is right and who is wrong. The truth is I can follow the money and see how American private investors interfere and d...
This BLOG entry is on the news media publishing classified information. I see this as an issue of moral conscience. A person in the news media has to ask him or her self will publishing this information harm the United States of America. The reality is that publishing any classified information is going to aid the enemy. When I was in the security industry, I used to tell people “the only people that need to know what security is up to is security.” Furthermore, I would say publ...
The bid political issues today are the Supreme Court ruling on the prisoners at Guantanamo Bay. All I can say on this issue is that it is good that there is a balance of power. I do recognize the president’s authority to conduct the war on terrorism. The one thing I did not mention on my article on the California legislature is that I have for many years have said, “ If you love your children you will take them out of the public schools. I had a thought today on romance. Thinking stuf...
Let me say that I will never disagree with president Bush. I think it is to easy to get on the petty criticizing cause you can ban wagon. In fact, I do no think I have seen a presidency where two seconds after they person was elected the criticisms did not start. Today, I heard a radio interview with the founder of focus on the family and the Mr. Brenner who was in charge of Iraq for a while after the invasion. Because of some of his public statements, I considered him enemy of pres...
