Frankly, I don't give a darn who's to blame, let's fight to win!

This is simply amazing. Here we are 5 years on, and the CIA is still trying to blame the FBI for the 9/11/2001 attacks. Do you want to know who I blame? AL QAIDA! Who dropped the ball? EVERYONE.

Okay? Can we stop the infighting and get on with it? There is some very interesting news about this 'book' Tenet has written over at CounterTerrorismBlog. If you are interested in history, it's a good read. As for me and my house, we are going to contiue looking ahead so it doesn't happen again...

PM Shinzo Abe to visit President Bush April 26-27

During the weekend of April 26-27, the Prime Minister of Japan, Shinzo Abe, shall visit President Bush at Camp David to discuss North Korea and Iraq. As usual, if you get along with President Bush then they throw a lot of dirt at you.

I am NOT saying that it is okay to deny that women were forced into prostitution during WWII. BY NO MEANS! It was not right then, and it is not right now. What I am saying, however, is what does that have to do with the price of eggs in China?

Apparently, he was misquoted (ah-hem) while speaking earlier in the week. The US Congress is seeking a 'nonbinding' resolution urging Japan to apologize formally for forcing thousands of women into the brothels.

One question. Why? Are we not at war? What's up with all of these 'nonbinding' resolutions? If you are not going to make them stick, then shut up. Now, back to the story (sorry, but that is part of the story that CNN wrote).

Next is the fact that the PM went to China first instead of the USA. This is a big deal? Oh, it breaks tradition, does it? I thought you didn't want anyone to feel obliged. So what's up with that? He can go where and when he wants!

BTW, we have over 50,000 troops on Japan's soil, and we have over 37,000 troops on the 37th (?) parallel line in South Korea. WHEN ARE THEY COMING HOME, HUH? What's the plan, man? You've got all the answer. What's the damn plan? Don't have one, do ya? Ha. Didn't think so. So shut up!

What is wrong with me, you ask? I know. It does look unlike me. When I read about this article, Sudan's government attacks Darfurian civillians, kills 65, I lost it. I've had enough BS, and I just don't feel like taking it anymore. Everyone can hate me. Fine. But when you go after innocent, helpless people and children? I get PISSED OFF. See? I thought you might. After all, even Jesus got anger. The only difference is, He did not sin in His anger. *Oops*

And I don't even think I covered the article! The link for the source will take you to the article. Just give her a click. Thank you, and have a great day!

Democrat bill would cause the murder of Americans and Iraqis

I have been at a loss for words that I would ever be caught saying after the Democrats in the Congress decided to play arm-chair generals. Trust me, I had many a word to say, I just did not want to put them down so they could live forever. I was given very good advise as a child and as an adult. Never write when you're angry, and wait three days until you cool off. I'm still angry, but I believe I have 'cooled-off' a little.

I have been reading many blogs, and I believe I have found one of the best there is to explain why I believe we should stay in Iraq. It is written by Mohammed at ITM. He lives in Baghdad, and he has a personal stake in this war. Why don't we listen to him?
...I wanted to talk about this because recently we've been watching the debate in America about redeployment of troops and identifying the real front we must focus on.
...
Al-Qaeda itself boasts about the great "sacrifices" of more than 4,000 "martyrs" to emphasize the importance of the war here. And the hundreds of suicide bombers preferred to blow themselves up in Iraq than anywhere else should remind us that if al-Qaeda considers this the main war then why talk about redeployment?

Walking away from the main war is not redeployment, it's quitting. ...
This is such a great explanation that I would like everyone to read it. You may never read such open and prophetic words in any of our dinosaur media, but Mohammed also writes for Pajamas Media, the largest New Media forum. Please visit it frequently.

If there is anything that has happened and you do not see it in the news, chances are it is being covered over here.

If you believe that Mohammed, please call your Congressman or Senator. (I have decided not to be PC anymore. If you do not like my using the word 'Congressman', get over it or go somewhere else. You bug me.) Let them know where you stand on this issue. THEY LISTEN. Honestly, they do. Some of them maybe won't change their vote, but do you remember how long it took for us to get them to even introduce a bill for the fence on the borders? That was you and me, babe! :)

Libby found guilty

I am too upset to write a long piece. Here is the AP's spin on it. Libby's lawyer is asking for a new trial. If that fails, he will ask for an appeal.

Here are some articles you can read: American Thinker, Michelle Malkin, Bloomberg's Libby, Ex-Cheney Aide, Convicted in CIA Leak Case (Update2) and Fox News' I. Lewis 'Scooter' Libby Guilty on Four of Five Counts in CIA Leak Trial.

Update: Dagney has written an article more in the way I am feeling today, the next day. I am still appalled at this injustice, and she nails it with her title: The InJustice Department Strikes Again.

Update II: Victoria Toensing has written an article from a legal point of view and more information as to the conduct of the Special Counsel Attorney and Judge. Amazingly breathtaking. That's how discumbobulated this sham has turn out to be.
