Wow Scott! What an excellent article exposing the complete sham and hypocriscy of these “heroic” and “moral” anti-war marches. It’s PC madness. That article is worth keeping and continuing to pass around.
Oh, and here’s Bruce Springsteen’s take on the Iraq War. “You try not to be cynical, but without the [...]

Ok just read this. I wish I could just plop down and ruminate with a keyboard like that.

Iraqi’s for war
February 28th, 2003 No Comments
The second most interesting moment in that symposium with Christopher Shays that Greg and I saw was when a young man stood and actually spoke in favor of the war. He was an Iraqi defector whose family was still over there. He was basically, without sounding pathetic, begging everyone there (mostly anti-war) to consider the [...]

Whoops.

ITHACA, N.Y. — Cornell University mistakenly sent out an e-mail message welcoming hundreds of students it had previously rejected.
The mistake happened Wednesday when a clerical staff member miscoded a message meant only for students who had applied early and been accepted.
As a result of the error, the e-mail was sent to 1,700 students, including [...]

Tom Friedman on Oprah
February 28th, 2003 No Comments
Tom Friedman was on Oprah (here in HK) today with some other woman. I only caught 15 minutes of the show. It seemed that Friedman (who is mostly right about the Iraq situation) was having a hard time explaining his cause in a way the audience could understand. The woman/expert much less [...]

Afghanistan link

Here’s the link about Afghanistan’s better days. Kudos to the Washington Post for continually trying to show at least a little bit of the other side of the argument.

Whoops! I guess War Sometimes Makes Things Better
February 27th, 2003 No Comments
So things aren’t all that bad in Afghanistan after all. It may not be perfect, but it sounds like it is a lot better than life under Islamic Fascism. Too bad these kind of reports rarely make the news.

Saddam’s big night
February 27th, 2003 No Comments
I watched Saddam’s big interview with Dan Rather. I was left wondering if this wasn’t a rerun from the interview Dan had 10 years ago.
The big difference is that Saddam made huge transparent arguments that were aimed at the pacifists. He talked about getting along as people. He yammered on about how he has no [...]

Finally, some moral authority…
February 27th, 2003 No Comments
While overrated icons of human rights like Mandela and Tutu have been senslessly decrying the United States as great evil, Elie Weisel has just come out blasting the U.N. for misplacing its ill will on the U.S. If only the U.N. had put as much pressure on Iraq as it has so far on the [...]

2 Interesting Posts
February 27th, 2003 No Comments
Those were 2 interesting posts by Greg and Scott. The first one is an example of Political correctness-gone-wrong. People are acting as if War is the worst thing in the World. It’s horrible, but a Middle-East under Taliban-like fascism would be worse. We’re willing to do anything to avert war, but [...]

“Evil is evil, so we’re behind our guys and whatever they have to do,” singer Brad Arnold said. “People just need to realize that the U.S. is the daddy of the world and all the time daddy can’t be the good guy.”
Brad is the lead singer for 3 Doors Down. I may have to purchase [...]

Chicken Soup for the Despot

Deepak Chopra is suggesting that he, the Dalai Lama and the Pope should go to Iraq as human shields.
Insincere grandstanding or a very special episode of Oprah?

The Silence of the Liberals
February 26th, 2003 No Comments
One of the things that annoys me most about the Liberals is the way they don’t even hold their own representatives accountable. Right now, the Left is up in arms over the Iraq situation and Bush. Yet there is complete silence from Hillary Clinton, the Goddess of the Left. Why is Hillary [...]

George Michael: Henry Kissinger of Pop
February 26th, 2003 No Comments
There’s a show that we get here on BBC called HardTalk. The recent guest was George Michael discussing his recent anti-Blair/Bush single and the Iraq war. Very interesting, because George Michael is much more articulate than a lot of our celebrities. Just the fact that he speak the Queen’s English helps.
However, he [...]

Anti-War Protester
February 25th, 2003 No Comments
The O’Reilly Factor yesterday featured an interview with an anti-war protester, but this one was special: he was an Iraqi who protested the Iran-Iraq war in Baghdad in the late 1980s.
Instead of bitterly toting a “Saddam is Hitler” sign for six hours before smashing a Starbucks window and then retiring to the basement of his [...]

Oh puhleeze Garofalo….
February 24th, 2003 No Comments
Comedienne-turned-peace activist Janeane Garofalo offered a stunning admission on Sunday, explaining that she and her fellow anti-war protesters didn’t stage huge demonstrations when President Clinton launched attacks on Iraq, Bosnia, Afghanistan and the Sudan because “it wasn’t very hip” to protest the former president.
Asked by “Fox News Sunday’s” Tony Snow why peace protesters like [...]

Bee Gees
February 24th, 2003 No Comments
Oh, I meant Bee Gees, not Beatles. It was quite a moving tribute to Maurice Gibb, the Andrew Ridgely of the band. Oh and I just want to take this moment to say that both Sheryl Crow and Alicia Keys need to disappear forever. I’d rather see Cameron Crowe and Alan Keyes [...]

Grammy Awards
February 24th, 2003 No Comments
I watched the Grammy awards and thought that they were the best Grammy’s ever. After a poor start with that ridiculoulsy overhyped Dustin Hoffman (who has made yet another bomb of a movie), the show moved quite smoothly due to the fact that they did away with having a host. There was no [...]

Bill Clinton to Head UN?
February 24th, 2003 No Comments
Yup. That’s the rumor that Soppy Bollocks got ahold of. Supposedly, Bill’s been courting a lot of foreign governments as he’s been on his World Tour of lecturing and poking women. I guess there’s a real movement to see him head the UN when Koffi Annan steps down.
This would be [...]

The Conspiracy of Eurabia?
February 22nd, 2003 No Comments
While the cautious, non-cynical part of me wants to dismiss some of this as a grand conspiracy theory to counterbalance The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, Bat Ye’or is a respected, if largely unheard of, Israeli scholar in conservative circles. This outline of Europe’s history of collusion with Arab states in opposing Israel and [...]
