ping to the January TM.
The problem is that about half of the country doesn't understand (doesn't WANT to understand) that we're in a war - a war that has been declared on us because of who we are, i.e. the leading Western power. Sadly, roughly half of our "leaders" (i.e. most of the Dem Party, and some Republicans) are either too stupid to understand what's going on, or they're not taking it seriously and using/fanning doubts about the war to serve their own political interests. The dinosaur media, which most of the public still pays attention to, is largely a cheerleader for the enemy, further compounding the problem.
IOW, we're fighting a very limited engagement with our hands tied behind our back. Welcome to the first PC war (and hopefully the last). I pray that we survive despite ourselves, and learn the appropriate lessons. Bismarck's quote "God protects fools, drunks and the United States" remains accurate, as does Churchill's that "the Americans always do the right thing, after trying everything else first."

Let's hope 2007 is a quiet year. I have no reason to believe it will be.
I'm here, preparing a special summary projecting hot spot activity for 2007 for this weekend.

January 03, 2007
WASHINGTON — The first Muslim elected to Congress says he will take his oath of office using a Quran once owned by Thomas Jefferson to make the point that "religious differences are nothing to be afraid of."

Just heard this one over the scanner. A United Airlines service vehicle was stolen from O'Hare. License 671 1278. It has a City of Chicago decal allowing it access to ALL secured areas of the airport. Hopefully they will find it quickly.
I'll post updates as I hear them.

Ellison named to Judiciary Committee
Watch for legislation to outlaw "religious profiling." From Associated Press, with thanks to the Constantinopolitan Irredentist:
WASHINGTON - Rep. Keith Ellison has been named to the House Judiciary Committee, a panel that has oversight over issues such as civil liberties, immigration and courts....
"I look forward to pursuing a progressive agenda in the committee, including the restoration of American citizen's civil liberties that have come under increasing attack over the past six years," said Ellison, the first Muslim member of Congress.
Ellison, a freshman lawmaker, said this week he'd like to see a ban on racial profiling, an issue that could come up in the Judiciary Committee.
