My guess is there is a lot that goes on that we don’t hear about,I’m not too surprised.

[anita]

Actually, it ‘s the other way round. They got what they deserve - Goler & Smith. Dan Bartlett passed them up.

[rodguy911]

Did you check out post # 21 some interesting stuff there.

[Knitting A Conundrum]

Another case of sudden jihad syndrome.

How convenient. In a culture that considers suicide a major sin (and Islam does), if you do it in a way that is perceived as striking out at the infidel, then you not only don’t go to hell, you go immediately to Paradise.

No wonder we are seeing so many cases of SJS...it resolves so many quandries for the person who wants to die...

[Mo1]

I don’t even know were to begin with Christ Matthews shows

Harold Finemen is blaming it on lack of parents involvement

David Brooks is blaming the VT shooting on a virus that Cho’s mother had when she was pregnant

[Carolinamom]

Prayers for your mom, AB. Keep us informed.

The shows' line-ups today are not very promising IMO.

[johnny7]

Great links again... the Wallace interview further solidified my opinion of him.

[rodguy911]

I heard a story some months ago forget where, that when suicide bombing was tried in a certain country, it was widely advertised that all suicide bombers would be buried with pig entrails, and it was shown being done. Aftyer widely adv. the fact, much of the suicide bombing stopped. Evidently the islamo fascists are not too fond of porky.

[Bahbah]

Okay, Mo, tell me you are making that up. LOL.

[Knitting A Conundrum]

That would do a lot!

[anita]

Did you mention Christ Matthews? What is up with our candidates accepting him as moderator for MSNBC debate? He 's the perfect example for BDS, constantly hate-mongering against Cheney.

He is teaming up with Ron Reagan and manipulating with stem cell & other republican issues. Is there any leadership on primary candidates side?

[Bahbah]

The President of GWU just informed us all that not even his security people are armed. No guns on that campus whatever.

Sounds like they’re next.

I would not want this Tractenburg guy running my local supermarket.

[rodguy911]

It worked in that one country.

Back to the VT killer, I find it odd that so much media time, energy,effort and air time is given to one event when we have illegals killing thousands of our citizens every year and no one hears a word about it. Talk about a double standard, what’s up with that.
At least Rush mentioned it on his show last week.

[gpapa]

Fred would do well to stay away from these Sunday morning dog and pony shows.

[Mo1]

Nope

Now they are talking about the NRA and the 2nd amendment

They are saying the Dems do not want to take this issue on about gun control

Though .. Fineman did make a comment that Dingle might in a back issue why slip something into a bill concerning gun control

[Bahbah]

I find it odd that so much media time, energy,effort and air time is given to one event

A caller to C-Span had the answer this morning. It was done to distract us from our failure in Iraq.

[rodguy911]

I love the “Harold” Fineman, I call him that as well!! He is just so blatantly L/W,a study in how to destroy a career.

[SE Mom]

Dan made a smart move that time. Shep? Goler? ppfffttt...

[SW6906]

It was legend that General Pershing buried Muslimes with pig entrails to discourage terrorism in the Philippines back around 1911. Snopes says it is "undetermined"

[Phsstpok]

Happy Earth Day. Thinking of building a bonfire and roasting wienies and marshmallows to celebrate.

Now that is a brilliant suggestion.  I hereby suggest that we all try to organize local FReeper cookouts, involving lots of barbecue grills and particularly smokers, for next Earth Day.  What a great tradition that would be!
