May Day and El Gran Boicot
I'm sure that by now all but the most oblivious of us are aware of the planned boycott tomorrow. I wonder about the significance of the choice of May 1st.I will attempt to let others tell you in their own words, just so you know who these people are, and more importantly, the ones behind them.Be warned, this is a long piece. My normal M.O. is to point you to things I or others have found. I feel this topic is important enough to include larger excerpts so that you may see what I have seen.Date: Wed, 1 May 1996 14:44:31 CDTSender: Activists Mailing...

Collapsing Iran
John Robb says it far better than I can, so read the excerpt, then follow the link and put this guy on your reading list...Collapsing Iranby John RobbThe confrontation between the US and Iran crossed into dangerous territory when Tehran announced that it had successfully enriched uranium and that it would have 3,000 operational centrifuges by the end of the year. This tension accelerated when Ayatollah Khameni claimed Iran would readily share its nuclear secrets with unstable regimes like Sudan. These events clearly demonstrate that the American...

Charles Taylor Takes A Stand
Yesterday, I heard the last half-hour of our Congressman, Charles Taylor, on Fox Across America with Spencer Hughes on XM168. He was being interviewed about his blocking the Flight #93 Memorial in Shanksville, PA.A goodly portion of the callers I heard agreed with Taylor, and our Congress Critter articulated himself well. He even said the magic words I found missing in the debate over the sale of federal land, "The Federal Government already owns too much land."This leads me to my next comment. Why didn't he Stand Up and articulate these same...

Cindy Seehan is a Liar, and the Mother of a Hero
I just can't come to grips with how this woman... except to remember that in Marxist Thought, nothing comes before the struggle for world socialism.Here is an excerpt:On Tuesday, April 11, 2006, Cindy Sheehan wrote:* Her son arrived in California in a cardboard box* Her son was carried over to the dock by a forklift* Her mortuary refused to pay the cemetery* Her son was treated as an over-sized piece of luggageBut... Now we know none of this is true!Read the rest....

A ministry spokesman said that Samhadana, who was behind the lethal 2003 attack on an American convoy in which three were killed,...

Candidates for Press Secretary
As I listened to the radio throuout the day yesterday, I heard some suggestions for who should replace Scott McClellan.The top name seemed to be Tony Snow, who would be good, but I doubt he'd give up his gig as radio talk show host and Fox News contributer.There were other names bandied about, none recognized by me until I heard Michael Reagan put forth (in jest) Ann Coulter. I nearly spit out my Mountain Dew and ran off the road. The mental picture I saw was so funny. The Press Corps would go nuts, well, nuttier than they already are!!! Helen...

Peace Like A River
I've been meaning to link to this guy forever. Click on the post title to see what I mean. I also have to post a warning about his site before you go over there. This guy posts about the show 24. Dude, that is so wrong!!! I thought there was like a code about revealing plotlines for the currently 24-deprived souls like me, I missed the first part of the season, and downloading the episodes isn't even an option at 28k. So if you're waiting on the...
Tuesday Roundup
Fjordman has issued another report, "The Retreat of the Western World Order".Joe Katzman posts on the growing blogosphere. I had no idea that it was that big!However big it grows, there are about 50 or so blogs that I try to read at least once a week, and Milands' blog is one of them. His latest is on The Cuban Missile Crisis and It's Aftermath.Remember when USATODAY upped its' price to 75 cents? That's when i quit reading nearly daily. Now, I only buy one when the cover story is compelling enough. The story about a post-Roe v. Wade America was...

Screwy Hoolie live-blogs Taylor on radio
Go here to read the post.I heard some of the interview, as I was in and out of my truck while running errands in Waynesville. I guess the spot didn't change anyone's mind, but may have kept some people from jumping ship and supporting Armor or Shuler. I think most people have already made up their minds on how they are going to vote, especially ones who listen to this program on the radio.I was glad to hear him respond, because I thought his silence was counter-productive. I disagree with Screwy Hoolies' post on one issue... most of Shuler's...

Any errors in this data are unintentional and will be corrected if you point them out to me before I find them, right now my eyes are crossed from looking back and forth from my hand-written copy as I type them into another machine, then will save to flash drive and uploaded to the internet from a public terminal.

El Gran Boicot
There are supposed to be more marches today by those who support Illegal Aliens gaining Amnesty in our country.There are those who plan greater actions, some of which are targeted to hurt our economy. I seem to remember a similar attempt to hurt our economy on September 11, 2001. While these attacks probably won't kill any one, they will hurt our nation.Don't believe me? Go here to find out about the attack planned for May Day, a Communist Holiday.Then, Visit here, the homepage of the Voice of Aztlan, the name for the nation they hope to establish...

Disturbing News About Taylor
Is Congressman Charles Taylor vulnerable?Has he been mishandling funds?I don't know. Here is an article on NC Conservative by John Armor, who coincidently is running for Taylors' seat. Can we trust what John Armor has written? I don't know. I trust that this will shake out in time for the Primary, because if it doesn't, then I am afraid Taylor will lose the race in November to Heath Shuler. Shuler may be okay, What makes me worry is all the far-left support that is behind him.Anyhow, I have posted an excerpt of Armor's article below, and will...
