    WILL HE EVER STOP? by Timothy Rollins, Editor and Publisher March 29, 2006 In an effort to once again advance his own agenda, Michael McGee Jr. goes on camera calling for enhancer penalties for those who commit crimes against black men, calling them an 'endangered species.' These outrageous comments call for an in-depth analysis to expose McGee as self-serving.We begin with the mortality rate of black men nationwide between ages 15 and 44, and we do not limit it to Milwaukee. The NUMBER ONE cause of death for these young black males is not tuberculosis, AIDS, accidents or influenza. The...

    THE ABSURDITY OF A COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF HILLARY by Mia T, doug from upland, 1.12.06   Coerced handshake during missus clinton's 2003 self-serving Thanksgiving visit to Iraq See (hillary's Iraq Turkeys) Hillary Clinton (D-NY) has already started her 2008 presidential campaign by aligning herself with the military and pretending to be tough on terror. Fortunately, the ultra-liberal Hillary has yet to brainwash all of the voting public into believers that her symbolism is really substance. Guess some folks will never forget that she was co-president for eight years in an administration that I quote: "Loath the military" -doug from upland   AUTHENTICATION...

Bush's approval ratings are at an all-time low for his presidency--37 percent--and his politiial opponents, seeing that he is down, have begun kicking him especially hard, even to the point of doing their best to make us lose the war in Iraq. For comfort, the president might reflect that approval ratings are sometimes directly contradicted by later, more reflective judgment. He might think...

    America could become a less divided society as result of hurricane Katrina, former US President Bill Clinton said today. “Americans were profoundly disturbed by the losses suffered and by the sense that maybe our government did not perform as well as it should have,” Mr Clinton said. “There was a profound sense of grief at the magnitude of the losses and not only the death but the dislocation of a million people. “And I think people were very sensitive to the fact that it disproportionately affected Americans of colour, principally African Americans, and low income Americans. “So I think it...

    On August 12, 2005 Governor Bill Richardson of New Mexico issued Executive Order 2005-040 declaring a ‘state of emergency’ in four New Mexico counties along its border with Mexico. It is intended to free up funds totalling $1.5 million for a variety of actions he felt necessary. Specifically, Hidalgo, Luna, Grant and Dona Ana counties are in “an extreme state of disrepair” according to the governor. The state of emergency stems from the governor’s conclusion of “violence encountered by law enforcement, damage to property and livestock, increased evidence of drug smuggling and human smuggling, with an increase in the number...

    A blonde and a lawyer are seated next to each other on a flight from Los Angeles to New York. The lawyer asks if she would like to play a fun game. The blonde, tired, just wants to take a nap, politely declines and rolls over to the window to catch a few winks. The lawyer persists and explains that the game is easy and a lot of fun. He explains, "I ask you a question, and if you don't know the answer, you pay me $5.00, and vise versa." Again, she declines and tries to get some sleep. The...

    The best indicator of what people will do in the future is what they've done in the past. So it is with John Kerry and George W. Bush. Throughout the campaign and in a series of debates, Kerry's pitch is unwavering: Everything from your dead fescue to childhood measles is Bush's fault. Had he been in office, Kerry assures, all outcomes would have been pleasing because he is smarter, wiser and more competent. That is a recurring mantra of the left. It is the core of their claim to an entitlement to govern and to regulate: That belief, combined with...

    Like Thomas Sowell's definition of a "racist" ("a conservative winning an argument with a liberal"), the definition of an "unpopular Republican" is "a Republican the Democrats would like to be rid of." Whenever liberals are being hysterical about a Republican, it's because that Republican is not good for the Democrats.....

    Did anyone else catch the POS O'Malley last night and this morning on the news runs? In a nutshell when asked what he thought about the Terrorists wanting to strike in the US this summer, he ended his little tirade by saying that al Qaeda is using the fact that President Bush is in office as a their recruiting tool. He also suggested that keeping President Bush in Office was the aim of Terrorists who are trying to attack inside the US.Why this idiot is still in office is beyond me. This guy is as far left and anti-American as...

In my reply #1, located below this post of Gov Bush’s email, I have posted a message from me to Terri’s husband. And, no, I did not discuss with anyone my idea here to write to Terri’s husband. No one suggested it to me. Nor did I discuss it with anyone at all. In my next reply, reply #2 below, I hope to post a message to my friends here on...

    Send to printer Repercussions of Peres’ Birthday by Arlene Peck September 23, 2003 Funny thing happened on the way to meet a neighbor. I brought up the topic of a column that I had just read written by Arutz-7's own Opinion Editor, Nissan Ratzlav-Katz. He wrote about the truly appalling display of disregard for the citizens of Israel in the then-upcoming eightieth birthday party of Shimon Peres. While Israel is struggling to pay its bills and feed its citizens, Shimon Peres, in yet another example of his self-serving attitude, saw fit to give himself, at tax-payer expense, a glittering celebrity...
