It was almost exactly five years ago that American Airlines Flight 587 suffered a mid air explosion which broke the plane in half. The wreckage fell on Far Rockaway, New York, setting fires and killing many on the ground plus all on board. There were hundreds of witnesses to the mid-air explosion, and I saw […]
Damned right! The public schools are terrible, and even getting worse. Home schooling and private, for profit schools are the best. The entire ’free’ public school idea is a disaster. Nothing is free. Public schools have gobbled up taxpayer dough for over a century, and have provided nothing, just like welfare has not alleviated poverty. […]
During WW II, the Germans and Japanese both told their respective citizenry that all was well, and the Allies were being soundly defeated. A B-17 every hour was being turned out by Boeing, and thousands of Jeeps were being built every month by Willys. Millions of gals were running trolley cars, building planes, guns, bullets, […]
There’s thousands of complaints around the nation about the electronic voting machines. “I voted for Jones, and Smith came out,” or similar complaints. Locally, the voting machines were so fouled up that I still don’t know who won, and the count didn’t even begin till 11PM. A wise man once said that without paper ballots, […]
There’s no question about the harshness of Saddam’s rule. He was a dictator, but the infrastructure was intact, everyone had a job, and he pretty well kept together a land formed at the end of WW I which melded three religions and lands together which didn’t much care for each other. He had huge palaces […]
That’s “Nigger,” of course, and if we use it we are racists, in spite of the fact that they call each other “nigger” at times. I have a few questions: Would we be racists if we formed “The United White College Fund?” Would we be racists if we had “White History Month?” Would we be […]
On the CBS Sunday Morning show of October 28th, a segment dealt with the software which allows total reconstruction and alteration of any photo. The fellow being interviewed has had 40 Time covers, the most famous being the one where OJ Simpson had his complexion darkened to make him look more threatening. That alteration got […]
That’s John Kerry, of course. What an ass! He blew a joke, which was intended to make George Bush look stupid, and it came out as a hideous slam on our armed forces. Then he refused to apologize. As one wag on MSNBC this morning called him, “The Republican’s gift that keeps on giving.” Kerry […]
That’s an exact quote from Bush last week at a press conference, when an NBC reporter kept asking him about Iraq and his hedging. In other words, history is repeating itself. In Vietnam, millions of dead civilians, and in Iraq, over 600,000 dead civilians so far. LBJ personally ran Vietnam, and ran it poorly from […]
I am certain that this will outrage a lot of you guys, but it’s only my opinion, so feel free to ignore it or possibly listen to reason. Football is the only sport which requires full body armor to play, and which sport more often than not inflicts permanent injuries and life long aches and […]
