THREE MUSLIM MEN IN TOLEDO CONVICTED ON TERRORISM CHARGES.
June 13, 2008 - 18:06
They apparently fit in very well with the local Muslim community. CLICK HERE. Will this get much media attention? NOT!! Just more of the kind and gentle practitioners of the "peaceful and tolerant" religion. CLICK HERE.

TIM RUSSERT PASSES AT 58!
June 13, 2008 - 18:13
I had the chance to visit with Tim Russert a couple of times and interviewed him several times as well. He was a great journalist, and seemed to be an even better guy. CLICK HERE.

ONE OF THE GOOSE CREEK TERRORISTS PLEADS GUILTY.
June 13, 2008 - 18:11
But I thought the terrorist-sympathizers at CAIR said the two young men were just travelling to the beach to shoot off some fireworks?!?!?! I guess CAIR was wrong...again. When will Americans wake up to the fact that we are at war, and many of our enemies are here in this country plotting to kill us!!!! CLICK HERE.

SUPREME COURT SAYS GITMO HAVE DETAINEES ACCESS TO U.S. COURTS.
June 13, 2008 - 06:52
5-4 ruling gives terrorists access to courts and Constitutional protection. Wouldn't it be nice if the Supreme Court cared as much about American's rights as it does those of terrorists??? CLICK HERE. This opinion raises more questions than it answers. CLICK HERE. If terrorists are captured on the battlefield, and are outside the defined protections of the Geneva Convention, does the ENTIRE Constitution of the U.S. apply to them?
Are they entitled to Miranda rights? In otherwords, since the soldiers who captured them presumably did not read them their rights, they are probably all going to be set free by liberal judges who will take pity on the poor darlings...just as they do with criminals who commit their crimes in this country.
Presumably they are entitled to have an attorney appointed for them, under the Constitutional protections that we apply to our own criminals. And I suspect that the chain of "evidence" that might have been gathered by troops in the middle of a firefight with these enemy combatants might not pass the muster of liberal judges in clean, well-lit courtrooms. By treating terrorists like common criminals, don't we return to the idea of investigating crimes like the attacks on 9-11 rather than PREVENTING them???
And what about BEFORE we capture the terrorists. Do U.S. soldiers have to announce themselves and give terrorists a chance to surrender and subject themselves to legal proceedings before we, for example, shoot a cruise missile into their encampment? Can we use drones to watch them without getting a search warrant? If they are entitled to Constitutional protections AFTER capture, why aren't they entitled to such protection BEFORE capture under the expansive application of the "Rule of Law" created by the Supremes today? Will every combat death of an enemy combatant now be subject to legal review and challenge in a court of law? And if we accord these protections to those who are outside the defined protections of the Geneva Convention, do they apply to ALL prisoners of war? Certainly those who play by the accepted rules of warfare should not be denied the same legal protections as those who don't, right? And what about our own soldiers? Can they all claim access to civilian courts for crimes committed in the military rather than facing courts martial? Or do terrorists have more rights than our own men and women in uniform in the eyes of the Supreme Court?
This ruling will certainly result in the deaths of more innocent Americans, and foreigners, and the blood is on the hands of the five Supremes who came up with this ludicrous opinion...as well as those who are cheering it!
If I had the slightest confidence that McCain would appoint Justices in the mold of Scalia, Alito and Roberts instead of Kennedy and Souter, this opinion alone might be enough to justify a vote for McCain. |

FRED THOMPSON WEIGHS IN ON GITMO DECISION BY THE SUPREMES.
June 13, 2008 - 12:30
If we are lucky, perhaps McCain will promise to put Fred on the Supreme Court. That might get my vote for McLame. CLICK HERE.
I would have thought that McCain would have applauded the decision, but even he is speaking out against the silly ruling. CLICK HERE. |

BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA FINALLY RELEASES HIS BIRTH CERTIFICATE.
June 13, 2008 - 06:49
Doesn't look like anything amiss. So why was he so reluctant to release the information?? CLICK HERE. And why release it to an extremist left wing blogger who lacks credibility rather than the mainstream, credible media??? Did Kos photo shop this from a real birth certificate? If Dan Rather can fake documents at CBS, why would anybody believe that a leftist blogger wouldn't do the same thing. And again, if there was nothing amiss on the birth certificate, as this version seems to indicate, then why did Obama refuse to release it, or better yet, authorize the State of Hawaii to release it??? Suspicious acts by politicians should raise suspicions, right??? CLICK HERE.
UPDATE: As suspected, there is something amiss here. A "certification of live birth" is different from a "birth certificate." This is the short form, with important information withheld! CLICK HERE.
Hmmm, here is a link to a REAL Hawaiian birth certificate. We link, you compare. CLICK HERE.

OBAMA DOESN'T HAVE ANY REAL CONCERNS ABOUT $4 OR $5 A GALLON GASOLINE.

The price is not a problem, as far as the Democrat nominee is concerned, just the timing. See what he says IN HIS OWN WORDS! CLICK HERE. |

LINCOLN DAVIS HOLDING BACK FROM OBAMA ENDORSEMENT.
June 13, 2008 - 06:57
The fact that Obama only got 18% of the vote in his district in the primary battle against Hillary Clinton is probably the biggest factor in his concerns about becoming attached to the Democrat's presidential nominee. But why doesn't he show the same reluctance to support Nancy Pelosi? CLICK HERE.

June 13, 2008 - 07:10
As predicted by virtually everybody who wasn't on the payroll to push this project, the Music City Star is bleeding money and looking to taxpayers to fill the void!! The same people who are promoting the Nashville Convention Center pushed this project, too. CLICK HERE. |
