SIREN ON DRUDGE. NOTHING FOLLOWS YET!
"I had no idea what I was supposed to do with six kids," she said, her voice shaking.
Folks,it's mice like this that makes the politicians knees weak and gives them a excuse to back off. There are more of them around than you might think,too. Some are people who talked a lot of gung-ho trash a few short days ago,but are already crapping their pants. One is a ex-AF friend of mine who called me and left a message on my machine yesterday asking me to "PLEASE call me!" .The "emergency" was he wanted to know if I thought the Muslims would retailate for our attacks on them,and what should he do to protect himself. He also said "Maybe we shouldn't have attacked them?".
It's just starting.
God bless America and please have mercy upon those who leave us no choice but to do unto them as they have done unto us before they can do unto us again.
Amen brother! We just baby sat this past weekend with our 27 month old grand daughter who is discovering the world and telling everyone about it. Her 7 month old baby brother learned how to sit up and start crawling to explore the wonders of life this past week!
We must take out and kill/destroy the evil mass murderers who ordered the slaughter on 9/11. Then, we have zero tolerance of the so called pacifists who hate America/Americans!
As President Bush said, "You are either with us or against us! Lets Roll!"
Heh heh........
Hang in there everybody, this war can only last ten or twenty years, maybe even less for some of us cogers and codgerettes. It is important that we all bear up though, the future of everything we hold dear, especially those delicate little Great Grand babies, depends on how we deal with the present evil.
It will be a rough ride. A ride we must take however.
Here is a funny story about the results of ignorance. I grew up in Virginia Beach,Va during the 50's,and really,really,REALLY wanted to grow up and become a fighter pilot. I didn't live far from Oceana Naval Air Base,and the fighters were flying over all the time.Anyhow,this dream ended when some adults explained to me the "booms" I kept hearing from Oceana were fighters crashing and exploding. Jets were fairly new then,and these people really believed this themselves,not knowing anybody who flew.
The ironic part is I moved away before I learned any different. When the time came (17th birthday) to enlist,I didn't join the Navy or AF becuase flying fighters was "too dangerous". I joined the army instead,and went "Airborne Infantry". I jumped out of the very first airplane I ever flew in,a old C-119 "Flying Boxcar".
How's THAT for being clever?
As my instructor asked me..."Why in the f*ck do you want to jump out out a perfectly good airplane that has a better chance of landing safely than you do, you dumb @#$!*&%^?!!!
I will make the caveat there that I will be engaging in quite a bit of private racial profiling before I open up to my fellow passengers. I don't want to accidently let the bad guys know who they should fear. I would prefer that they fear all of us.
Absolutely, and you won't be the only one doing the profiling and sizing up. Fear is a great weapon, and these bozos are not used to getting it used against them!
Now, you two tell me how to get over my fear of FLYING, which is currently only controllable with two martinis right before boarding.
Your instructor obviously never flew in a C-119. I have never been so happy to do anything in my life as I was to jump out of that airplane.
Klingons: "Visualize your enemy's blood dripping from your bat'leth. Visualize the spleen of the p'tahk impaled on your d'k tahg!"
Don't allow that racial profiling to get you to ignore non-"swarthy-looking" passengers. Not all Muslims are dark. Not even all Arabs are "swarthy" or "dark". Some Arabs even have red hair and green eyes,and I have personally seen a "Ricky Schroeder look-alike" who was a fundamentailist Muslim at my insurance agent's office. He even had the rag on his head,the robe,billowy pants,and the black wife all bundled-up except for her eyes. He was a American with no trace of any accent at all. I guarantee you this guy could spend 20 bucks on used clothes and you would never give him a glance.
The short end to a long post,pay attention to ALL your fellow passengers,regardless of race OR sex.
We were discussing what to do on a plane with some friends, and one the women said what weapons do I have besides my fingernails. I told her to use her teeth. My wife lifted up her small but heavy Dooney, 8 pounds, as an example of a weapon. Like a Brick with a strap. I'm sure that I or she could end any terrorist's nice day with that brick, er Dooney slamming into his head at the end of the 2.5 ft strap! A 180 degree swing with that 8 # brick at the end of a 2.5' strap would generated a blow like Barry Bond's bat when it hit a terrorist in the temple!
Now, you two tell me how to get over my fear of FLYING, which is currently only controllable with two martinis right before boarding."
If that's what's required for you to fly, just look at your two martinis as pre flight medication! Kinda like pre op meds! Do worry about it. Today, you will not be the only one pre meding!
If I had two martinis before boarding, I would not be much threat to any terrorists! Crusader Rabbit would have to get someone else to help!
They deserve the best world we are capable of providing them with, it is our God given duty to see that they have the freedom to choose what is right, rather than having evil forced upon them. They are our future and our legacy, we will answer to our maker if we fail them.
BUMP! for let's roll-duty calls.
Sounds good! Would you define d'k tahg!. Sounds like something, Clintoon would say or do!
We must not fail them! This is why when the pacifists try their head games to make us fail, I get so outraged!
