Ho, Ho, Ho, Gangsta Christmas!

Christmas insanity: 'Ho, ho, ho' becomes 'Ha, ha, ha'

It all started when the recruitment firm Westaff – which has offices both in the United States and Australia – told its Christmas trainees that the "ho, ho, ho" phrase could frighten children and possibly be derogatory to women.

Surely you jest. Santa can't say, "Ho, Ho, Ho" anymore? Why don't we just ban talking? Get it over with, it's heading in that direction anyway. Next, we'll all have to wear masks so we don't inadvertently offend someone with a smile or a frown when they don't like it.

Actually, that wouldn't work because nobody would agree on what color they should be. Mandatory Botox injections starting in Kindergarten!

Israel determined not to let peace meet fail

"Israel has decided to make Annapolis a success, to bring an end to the conflict, to finally make peace between the Palestinians and ourselves,"

So this problem was the fault of Israel all this time, they just weren't ready? What more could they possibly do but move out? Let me guess the outcome of these meetings right now. There will be no peace with the Palestinians because there is no peace within the Palestinians. If all the Jews left Israel and the Palestinians controlled everything there would still be no peace and the infrastructure would begin it's slow decay back to the barren land it once was. And they would still blame it on the Jews.

Surprise!

The uninvited guest: Chinese sub pops up in middle of U.S. Navy exercise, leaving military chiefs red-faced.

American military chiefs have been left dumbstruck by an undetected Chinese submarine popping up at the heart of a recent Pacific exercise and close to the vast U.S.S. Kitty Hawk - a 1,000ft supercarrier with 4,500 personnel on board.

By the time it surfaced the 160ft Song Class diesel-electric attack submarine is understood to have sailed within viable range for launching torpedoes or missiles at the carrier.

According to senior Nato officials the incident caused consternation in the U.S. Navy.

The Americans had no idea China's fast-growing submarine fleet had reached such a level of sophistication, or that it posed such a threat.

No idea? Not even a clue? No one? Wonderful.

Something Profoundly Wrong

Sen. Joe Lieberman delivered an address today. If only his was the voice of the Democrat party. "The Politics of National Security"

I understand that President Bush is a divisive figure. I recognize the distrust that many Americans feel toward his administration. I recognize the anger and outrage that exists out there about the war in Iraq.

But there is something profoundly wrong—something that should trouble all of us—when we have elected Democratic officials who seem more worried about how the Bush administration might respond to Iran’s murder of our troops, than about the fact that Iran is murdering our troops.

There is likewise something profoundly wrong when we see candidates who are willing to pander to this politically paranoid, hyper-partisan sentiment in the Democratic base—even if it sends a message of weakness and division to the Iranian regime.

Answer The Question

Do you, the senator from New York, support the decision by the governor of New York to grant driver's license to illegal aliens?

Why is this even a tough question?

It's a tough question for Hillary because for the overwhelming number of Americans it's not. For them, it's a no-brainer. The answer is a resounding "no."

But, if you are Hillary Clinton, and deep down in your gut you would like nothing better than to enlist millions of new constituents as illegal voters, it's hard to say "no" to handing out driver's licenses to them. It's equally hard to say "yes," knowing most legal voters would think you'd lost your mind by proposing such an idea.

So, she waffled and spun. She denied saying what everyone heard her say with our own ears. Then she did what she's best at doing – blamed Bush.

Don't Drink Out Of That Glass

Undercover video: Hotel Room Glasses Go Unwashed, Doused with Toxic Cleaners

I never considered it before but come to think of it, I have never seen any glasses on any maids cart I've ever seen. You would think they would at least carry a clean sponge and dish soap for cleaning them though. I sense a coming change in how hotels clean the glasses. Either that or people will forget and it will all blow over until the next undercover report. I know hotel managers don't want to swap out the glasses everyday and bring them down to a dishwasher. If they don't have a restaurant, they don't even have a dishwasher. If they do have a restaurant it probably couldn't handle the extra work load - how many rooms do some of these hotels have?

A Happy Ending!

Happy with his brother, the boy who refused to die

This is a really sweet story and they are so cute.

I did notice one little thing, though.

Doctors told her his death could cause his twin brother to die too before they were born, and that it would be better to end Gabriel's suffering sooner rather than later.

Babies can suffer before they are born? Doesn't that go against traditional abortionist "wisdom" that it's just an unfeeling clump of cells in which there is no life until it's born? I guess if you actually want the baby they pretend it actually has feelings so as not to offend the parents. Or is it that the reverse is true, they are actually real live human babies that feel pain and terror when someone tries to kill them, and everyone is supposed to pretend it isn't so?

What Is This?

Every time I pull in the driveway I see this on my tree. It faces the entrance like it's looking over it. I know what it looks like to me but I don't want to go there, unless someone wants to buy it. :)

The Fifth Commandment

Honor thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee. Exodus 20:12

That people, among whom the sacredness of the family ideal is maintained, and children render obedience to their parents during the period of immaturity, and always honor, will be the nation of strength, retaining its hold upon its own possessions, and abiding long in the land. --G. Campbell Morgan

As timely today as ever, and the consequences are showing.

University to students: 'All whites are racist'

And blacks, by definition, can't be racist. I heard that crap in New Jersey when I worked there. I'm not surprised at all to see it being taught at a University, I thought they all did it. It's 100% wrong and the sooner they stop teaching things like this the better it will be for everyone, no matter who they are. Except maybe the Jesse Jackson's and Al Sharpton's of the world.
