In Sudan a teacher of English is threatened with death for allowing her class to name a Teddy Bear "Mohammed." In solidarity, I will be naming my pet banana slug "Mohammed."
"Mohammed," the banana slug
Berkeley Study says: "Conservatives Born, NOT Made" I was on the way to my dentist this morning for a regular cleaning (I am on a four month schedule because my tooth deposits build up much faster than my bank deposits). I learned that I have an abscess that needs fast surgery (so much for whining). Being a conservative is more fun than pulling teeth. I heard a report that the Berzerkley researchers found that conservatives were whiners when younger. I may have been a crybaby before 7th grade, but I learned better and whomped two of my tormentors in JrHS. That was end of the tormenting (I had been slow, clumsy, four-eyed, and fat). My first political act was hanging a "We Like Ike" sign on our fourth grade bulletin board. One of my later political acts was hanging my high school history teacher in effigy when he told us the whole and real history of the Panama Canal. That was when I fancied Goldwater (the candidate AND the soft drink that tasted a lot like "Cactus Cooler"). I was a REAL radical when I was VP of our campus Young Republicans in college (my first drink of illegal Bourbon was at a Reagan [for Governor] victory party). I was probably born as a conservative, because my parents were not particularly political. I didn’t learn until much later that my grandfather was a Republican ward boss in Chicago (talk about radical. It was CHICAGO!), two of my great uncles were murdered by labor union thugs, my own dad was hounded and beaten up by union thugs, my great great grandfather went to jail under the Fugitive Slave Law, and I had an estranged-by-divorce grandfather in the KKK. I turned out more libertarian than conservative. I do not see that the government should meddle in soft drugs or prostitution, for example (looks like a contract to me), but I draw the line at homosexuals calling their unions "marriage." I am as equally constrained from marrying a male as a gay guy. So much for the "equality under the law argument." I favor the death penalty for murderers. I believe that those who sneak across our borders should not receive any benefits not derived from their own labor. I think the age-old definition of marriage (one man, one woman, one lifetime) is a generally good thing. I believe that rights can only be taken from us by government by due process of law, and that benefits are not rights if they must be funded by forced confiscation from others. I believe in a strict interpretation of the Constitution and that most of what the Federal Government is doing today should be left to the States or the People. I believe that the States should make their own laws on abortion, even though I teach against this infanticide. What I do disagree with the Berzerkley study on is their characterization of "conservative traits." They cite rigidity, lack of compassion, narrow mindedness, and a whole litany of negatives as being conservative traits. The only "positive" among them (and liberals would consider it a negative) is "respect for authority, tradition, and traditional roles." I do have that respect. My wife of 36 years has been a traditional housewife from the beginning (but she happens to be Japanese). And, of course, I believe that there are bad people out there that should be dealt with or destroyed by the military, or the justice system and police. My narrow mindedness and rigidity is amply shown by the web pages I have up.
How About the Immigration Bill? I have seen more than just the stoop labor jobs being taken over by the illegals. The construction industry is being overrun by them. The oil patch and the whole restaurant industry is being taken over. These days the illegals are being pushed out of work by newer illegals. Unlike many, I am totally against the idea of "Comprehensive Immigration Reform." First, such "omnibus bills" are simply ways of hiding the insignificant details like reducing the length of the fence (by half). If the illegals go around the fence, that is where ICE should be posted. The most egregious detail about the current bill is that there is no penalty to those who do not choose the road to US Citizenship. They can remain and work forever on the Z-visa, without fear of deportation and without being subject to the fines and back tax payments. . It’s not big business that is the bad guys. It’s all the little contractors TO the big guys. That’s how Wal-Mart got off. THEIR employees weren’t illegal. "Maximo’s Maintenence Company" hired the illegals. Same way with Chevron and the other big oil guys. It is their contractors who are turning away from roughnecks from Kansas, Texas, and Oklahoma in favor of those from Jalisco, Chihuahua, and Tabasco. The government says they can’t nail employers because these malfeasors have no way of checking the status of workers. If you or I were busted for having stolen property, it wouldn’t matter if we had a stack of bills of sale going back a decade. The 1986 amnesty was Reagan’s biggest blunder, not because it was a bad idea, but because the government has shown that it lacks the will to enforce the border and the employer sanctions. We should have no faith in our government’s promises of enforcement, now. We should have even less faith if the Presidency goes to the Democraps in 2008. The government can’t even find 400,000 folks who have been ordered deported. Overstayed visas are a laugh. The border is a sieve. The passport office and INS can’t handle all the applications, and you expect a whole new bureaucracy to do any better. Without enforcement, the wave from the South will only overwhelm us and our entire social safety net. The black folks who are averse to learning Spanish will be forced out of work by bi-lingual speakers (legal ones, too) as the market learns that it must have a workforce that can talk to ALL of their customers. When hiring low skill and entry level folks, who has the advantage? Is it someone who is bilingual English/Spanish? Or is it someone who only speaks Ebonics? We are all being sold out by our Senators. The "War on Poverty" has worked so well that we need to import millions of poverty stricken from the south. We shouldn’t bring Mexico North. We need to take America SOUTH and with force, if necessary. We are being invaded for all the classic reasons. The Constitution clearly states that a major function of the Executive Branch is to protect us from INVASION! A good rule of thumb for conservatives is that if Teddy Kennedy favors it, it is BAD policy. With that as the starting point, then the fine print can be examined for why it is. On the plus side every Presidential race since 1964 has gone to the candidate who was more deemed as "a conservative, anti-tax outsider." Why won’t the Republicans realize this and put up a fight? Here’s the PRESTON PLAN to keep our sovereignty: 1. Require all remittances of money to designated countries (Mexico, Mid-East) have 30% withheld and paid to the IRS. When the taxpayer files his tax return, he can claim a refund. 2. The presence of an illegal alien on payroll, regardless of steps taken to prevent it, subjects an employer to sanctions. 3. Our military is to be posted on the border. The president of Mexico is warned that for every illegal alien from Mexico apprehended north of the border, the United States of America will move the border one foot south as compensation for expenses incurred. 4. The provisions of Prop 187 in California and similar propositions in other states will be fully implemented. 5. Congress will make clear the meaning of the 14th Amendment. I.e. That it applies only to those formerly in servitude as to natural born citizens. 6. English shall be made the official language of the United States. 7. Television broadcasters in other than English shall be required to provide subtitles for all programming that is not a part of a bona fide language class. 8. All foreign aid shall be ended for governments that advocate illegal emigration to the U.S. That ought to be a good start. The Panama Canal would be a good defensible southern border.
Is the Marine Corps Hymn Prescient? From the halls of Montezuma to the shores of Tripoli, we will fight our country's battles in the air on land and sea.... Is it mere coincidence that these same two areas are STILL the biggest threats to the survival of the United States? Maybe THIS time America will finish the job that has been left undone for so long! Two hundred years hence, will these two areas threaten the survival of America?
Few realists dare to dream. Few dreamers dare to face reality. The measure of a man's greatness is his capability to be both a realist and a dreamer. For greatness takes both a commitment to goals that rise above the ordinary and the courage to roll up one's sleeves in pursuit of those goals. --Theodore Roosevelt
Some words from another Socialist Roosevelt: "If the Nation is living within its income, its credit is good. If, in some crises, it lives beyond its income for a year or two, it can usually borrow temporarily at reasonable rates. But if, like a spendthrift, it throws discretion to the winds, and is willing to make no sacrifice at all in spending; if it extends its taxing to the limit of the people's power to pay and continued to pile up deficits, then it is on the road to bankruptcy." — Franklin D. Roosevelt

Bush Appointed Garner to be Postwar Iraq Czar
Retired General, Jay Garner, took on post war organization tasks. Or was it the guy who really wanted the job -- "Duke" from the Doonesbury strip? That's Garner on the far right (or is it?). Question: Is totalitarianism any worse when imposed by force of arms, imposed by force of words, or if democratically chosen?
