Iguana Update

Just for the boyz, I thought I'd let everyone know they had their own little Acadamy Award Show last night around the pool.  This started out like the sword fights after the Pirates of the Carribean file; so I'm not hopeful.

They hung Al Gore in effigy as they are pretty much all out for Global Warming and any attempt to stop it sorta goes against their grain.

They did have some gals there with no underwear.

One of the girls wanted an audience with the Queen of England, but after learning that it was generally crappy and cold and wet in England settled for an audience with another keg of beer.

We're still sweeping up the party mess.

This young woman was so gullible, I had to wonder if she was a Democratic: last Saturday we had some really bad winds here in Oklahoma.  Saturday evening I had to go into town for some stuff.  As the cashier was checking the items she commented on the wind.  I told her, "Yeah, it was pretty fierce!  I was standing at the kitchen window looking outside, and a prairie dog hole blew by with the prairie dog still inside holding on for dear life."  She looked at me and asked, "Are you serious?"

I wake up this morning and one of the first things I see is my father (whose idiocy is second only to Dan Rather's in that he still believes the forged National Guard documents about President Bush are still real) reading the newspaper and joyfully commenting on how resolutions for impeachment have begun. I took a look at the paper's website this morning, and all I see is calls for resolutions for impeachment to begin over now-discredited reasons and without any substantial evidence worthy of impeaching the President.

The rest of this post is just ranting to get off my chest, skip it if you like.

Other things I've had to put up with from this man: the Democratic party hasn't changed since JFK, we shouldn't dispute AGW and Al Gore's cult because of what "international scientists" have said, acting on authority given to us from Saddam's violation of 17 UN resolutions is still illegal, and basically almost everything else the MSM spews at us every day.

I can't wait until I'm done with college and get out of that house.

Bob Woodward told a Tokyo conference that the media should have done more to verify whether Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein had secret weapons.

"We should have been much more aggressive," Woodward told a conference in Tokyo. "I've thought what I could have done," he said. "The only way to find out if (weapons of mass destruction) really existed is to get on the ground."

Could the media have found the truth about WMDs when the rest of the world's intelligence communities missed it? Perhaps. The most common explanation for this mistake is that the intelligence community was submerged in group-think. Maybe reporters could have seen the evidence without the group-think.

It's easy to claim that, however, after the fact. At the time, there were other concerns. Remember, CNN admitted that it obeyed Saddam Hussein's censorship because it would have been kicked out of Iraq otherwise. Obviously, if the media reported that Saddam had no WMDs, Saddam would have retaliated. Also, one wonders who the reporters would have contacted as sources. Very likely, the Iraqis would have used the reporters for their own purposes, and the situation would have been worse.

On first glance, Woodward has a point, but only at first glance. A more aggressive media would only have made the situation worse.

One for the "You Can't Win" file... The Florida Times Union just ran a panic piece about how declines in the numbers of students enrolling in schools are causing school districts to lose millions of dollars in their budgets.  So the schools are unhappy when the enrollments are going up, and now they're unhappy because they're going down and the schools can't count on getting as big a chunk of taxpayer pie was before.  Will nothing make the teachers happy?

There is some dim-witted democrat politician down in Florida that appears to think he is in Cuba.

This is PC run amok and then some.

Dateline San Francisco.  Monday - February 28, 2007.  KSFO Program Director Ken Berry went on the air to confess that morning talking heads Lee Rogers, Mel-UM-nie Morgan (is there a more inarticulate person on the radio in the SF Bay Area?) and Officer Vic (aka Tom Benner - another phony name, though) "mistakenly stated" that a 13 year old George Soros "cheerfully" and "willingly" went to work for the Nazis during WW II.

Bad enough these folks on Hate Talke 560 told such a completely discredited lie about Mr. Soros.  And bad enough it took KSFO almost 3 weeks (February 8th broadcast - February 26th admission it was simply not true) to admit to the slander. 

But to have the Program Director go on the air instead of the people who said it?  They don't have the guts to own up to their reckless and irresponsible behavior?

Beyond weak...

Someone once made the point that all you need to do to figure out what the left is doing is listen to what they are accusing you of. Such as...remember this Al Bore ranting, nay, screaming on about how "HE PLAYED ON OUR FEARS!!!" Appreciate that play book did you Al??? Who's playing on fears now?

I'd love to hear your favorite examples.

I just received an e-mail with a picture of a coin said to be newly minted and put in circulation by our government. It's a dollar coin minus, you guessed it, "In God We Trust". Hope this isn't true.
