Republicans were beat by the Terrorists

According to this article, Al Qaeda has sent a message to leaders of the Democratic party that credit for the defeat of congressional Republicans belongs to the terrorists.

Im quite sure people were warning that the ramp up of violence prior to the elections was to influence the vote...

Dear NRA,

About three months ago I renewed my membership for 5 years, in exchange I was to receive an NRA pocket knife. I was going to renew my membership anyway as I believe in most of your stances and I enjoy the American Rifleman magazine

The knife came in the mail yesterday, and I have to ask, what is the NRA doing dealing with a company that makes knives in China? China has no gun rights, no freedom of speech and really very little in the way of freedom at all. Could you not find a company that made a knife in a free country?

I carry a knife I received from you several years ago that was made in Ireland. Its not as "pretty", but I carry it proudly, this Chinese knife probably wont see the light of day. I would rather not get any "gift" for a membership then support a communist country.

Just a Slip of the tongue?

In what had been the world's worst kept secret, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert all but admitted that Israel had nuclear weapons. At the time I didnt think much of it (as mentioned in the article, it was estimated that Israel had about 200 warheads) until this story today.

Iran demanded Tuesday that the U.N. Security Council condemn what it said was Israel's clandestine development of nuclear weapons and "compel" it to place all its nuclear facilities under U.N. inspection.

If Israel refuses to comply, Iran said the council must take "resolute action" under Chapter 7 of the U.N. Charter which authorizes a range of measures from diplomatic and economic sanctions to military action.

By precident, if Israel refuses to comply the UN can, with Russia's backing, order preemptive strikes against the Holy Land...

Ezekiel 38:14 "Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say to Gog, 'Thus says the Lord GOD: "On that day when My people Israel dwell safely, will you not know it? 15 Then you will come from your place out of the far north, you and many peoples with you, all of them riding on horses, a great company and a mighty army. 16 You will come up against My people Israel like a cloud, to cover the land. It will be in the latter days that I will bring you against My land, so that the nations may know Me, when I am hallowed in you, O Gog, before their eyes."

A Cause for concern?

As mentioned previously, I said because of the illegal immigrant round up earlier this week that there would be a push for a national ID card...so today I read...  "I call on Congress... to take up this issue of revising the Social Security rules so we can further protect Americans from identity theft and protect our borders against illegal immigration." Its a catch 22 that those in power gleefully created.


one thing while reading the vaious articles concerning Chertoff is that his name translates as " Son of Satan" in Russian...

Two things stand out

and I wasnt the only one who caught it ...

Firstly is this comment:
 Sam Rovit said the company has never knowingly hired illegal workers and does not condone the practice.

followed by:
Swift asked a federal judge to prevent agents from conducting the raid, arguing it would cause "substantial and irreparable injury" to its business.

Swift estimated that a raid would remove up to 40 percent of its 13,000 workers. After a closed hearing, a judge on Thursday rejected Swift's request, clearing the way for the raids. 

The other thing is that illegals are using fake IDs to gain employment, this will continue until a system is set up that will allow the tracking of citizens. "Your papers... please"

Oh the hypocrisy!

At the end of this article:

"The U.S. State Department shot down the offer, saying the American government will not open a dialogue with Cuba until it releases political prisoners and holds free elections."

So… when are we going to stop dealing with China?

Paying for a name

This weekend my pup got a little bit of cabin fever and ripped my 4 year old Dr. Martens to shreds. That in and of itself was a bit of an annoyance, after all they were a $100.00 pair of shoes, but finding replacements for the shoes is what really got my blood boiling.

Dr. Martens used to be a quality shoe made in England. Somewhere along the line, they moved production to China and now appear to be using inferior materials, yet the price remained the same. Upon finding out about the demise of Dr. Martens, I started on my search for a different pair of shoes… Chippawa claimed they were made in the USA but every pair I ran across at Drysdales said Made in China. That left me buying a pair of Wolverines that are made in the USA (at least the pair I found). Another Made in the USA brand that I didnt get around to looking at was Red Wing.
