I have removed the link to Google news from my side bar. In order to do business in China Google has agreed to comply with censorship requirements. I find this disgusting.
I've rarely ever used Google as a search engine, but now its off limits. The fact that a American company would help a communist government control its populace by participating in censorship for money is appalling.
What's next? An American company selling weapons to the religious police in Iran?
Arrgh!!

At Random
I've added a couple of new blog links and I would highly recommend that the few readers of this blog check out Babalu Blog. Scroll down and read his post about Ramon Saul Sanchez and his hungry strike. Personally, I would find another way to get my point across because I hate being hungry.
The left now has their own Pat Robertson. Unfortunately, Mayor Ray Nagin has not been vilified by the MSM for his outrageous comments. His explanation for his "chocolate city" comment is almost laughable. Michelle Malkin is all over this. Scroll down and read all the post regarding Nagin's MKL day comments.
Another related bit of insanity is Senator Clinton's comparison of the Republican control of Congress to the running of a plantation.

Under the Bus
Here is a link to a post signed by several of the bloggers I like best. The corruption issues in Congress are serious and as the majority party the Republican party holds the most responsibility for fixing the mess. It doesn't matter how many corrupt Republican there are as opposed to how many corrupt Democrats. Those who have the most power have the most responsibility.
It's time for a change in Congress. A couple of weeks ago I got a flyer in the mail ask for my support for a potential congressional candidate. He's new which just might be why I vote for him in the primary elections. Perhaps we should throw 90% of Congress (Republican and Democrat) under the figurative bus.

Tallmansville
Things aren't looking so good for the 13 miners trapped in Tallmansville. Here is the most recent development of this sad story. My prayers are with the miner and their families.
While most of us are to busy hoping and praying that these men are alive, some people are already blaming the President. Here is a manifestation of one individual's Bush Derganement Syndrome.
What's next, blaming Bush for every job related accident in the U.S.? Or maybe every stubbed toe and broken finger nail? This level of hysteria ought to merit medication.

Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas. It's less than 24hrs away. Then all the fun is over. Personally, I like Christmas Eve best.
Bush made the news for carrying on the tradition of Christmas Presidential pardons. Here is the list. Some of them seem like odd choices, but who knows the whole story. Funny how they can point out the RNC contributions of one recipient of a pardon. Stupid MSM. It's Christmas. There worse than the Grinch sometimes.
On a happier note, here is a positive story that made the news. Guess not all of them are Grinches.

There ought to be a Rule...
In the spirt of "there ought to be a rule...." I suggest the following 4 guidelines listed below.
1. No Nazi/Hitler comparisons unless millions have been murdered in the name of racial purity by a dictator who wants to rule the world and controls his own country with fear and secret police. No, the CIA don't qualify as secret police and the dead in Iraq are not similar to the 6 million dead Jews during WWII.
2. No Vietnam comparisons shall be used without first understanding what the failures and successes of the war were. One must also have a good grasp of current success in Iraq, or wherever, before any comparison shall be made.
3. All Americans who say they "hate America" will be exchanged for one grateful individual still waiting to legally immigrate to the U.S. Said self-loathing American will be given to China, Cuba, Iran, or any third-world country. After three months, they will be allowed to legally immigrate back to America if they so chose.
4. The names of all murder victims shall be read off at the execution of any prisoner on death row, lest we forget why the state is taking a life.

The things you mean to do
I started this blog right before the November elections. I was annoyed about all the Bush bashing and hysteria over Iraq. I did not think about the time involved in blogging. I wrote another post in April and left it at that.
Blogging was one of those things that I meant to do. That's become the story of my life these past two years. So now at 11:00pm I have decided to solve this problem, not just with my blog but all the other things I think about doing and don't. One post a week until I get some serious traffic on the blog. Links to other blogs will be upcoming. Eventually there will be pictures. All post will typically be shorter than the first two. (As a side not I apologize for the spelling/grammar errors I will make and not catch. I can edit everyone's work but my own.)
