Some of you may have seen the following: "FORT DIX, N.J. (AP) - Six foreign-born Muslims were arrested and accused Tuesday of plotting to attack Fort Dix and slaughter scores of U.S. soldiers - a scheme the FBI says was foiled when the men asked a store clerk to copy a video of them firing assault weapons and screaming about jihad." But how many of you read this far: "Authorities said there was no direct evidence connecting the men to any international terror organizations such as Al-Queda. But several of them said they were ready to kill and die "in the name of Allah," according to court papers." Well, sh**. No direct connection with Al Queda. I guess that means they're free to go. I mean America, according to the Monday Morning Quarterback Assh*** Gazette, should not even be in Iraq today because, according to some, there wasn't any evidence connecting it to Al Queda either. Which, as an aside, not only makes Bush a liar but Clinton too since he indicted Osama originally and said indictment mentions ties to Saddam. A lot of us have been trying to point out since 9/11 that making distinctions between terrorists is like making a distinction between the Ku Klux Klan and Nazis. To do that, you've either got to be 1)dumb as Florida dirt, 2) scared to death or 3) so ass deep in your political "point of view" not even the cold, hard truth can pull you out. I vote for number one and I'll tell you why...

I'm sure many of you remember the former radio host Phil Hendrie. In case you weren't aware, he continues to write on his blog. Although a democrat, he has been one of the most articulate supporters of the President and the War on Terror, much like Dennis Miller or Christopher Hitchens (he's not as good a writer as the latter - few are - but they share a similar outlook). He's always worth a read.
