I've also fixed a couple JavaScript errors that were occuring on some of my older posts, along with fixing the layout of the Comment/Trackback/Email bar underneath each post on older pages...

iMac G5

This is the coolest computer I have ever seen in my entire life!!!

I was just doing a little reading about situations of liberals trying to silence Bush supporters with both threats and violence.

I guess I'm not surprised, people who don't have an intellectual leg to stand on usually use violence, as if it makes their arguments valid. This is a common tactic used by kids in grade & middle school, but it's amazing how often it's used by adults, as if the tactic was even remotely mature. Liberals usually seem like they're the first to scream that their freedom of speech rights are being violated, while at the same time they are the first to try to impair freedom of speech from people who have differing views...

A Ruckus In Kerry's Backyard

The Buck Stops: With Kerry's Little People (With Video)

The other day Blogs for Bush put up an image of the Web of Connections Kerry has with MoveOn.org...

Today the Kerry camp has put up Bush's Web of connections with Swift Boat Veterans for Truth... Amazing, so the Kerry camp knows about the existence of the diagram, however they (and the media) are completely ignoring what the diagram they copied says against them...

Man, Kerry's the biggest hypocrite I've ever seen...

MoveOn Whips Up Anti-Bush Sentiment

Well, it appears Kerry's front, the one he secretly has ties to, is doing his dirty work yet again. Why does the media seem to be ignoring the long line of ties between MoveOn.org, the Democratic Party, and Kerry's Election Team??? The list of links goes deep, much more than Bush's supposed ties to Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, yet Kerry won't even mention or try to explain away this long list of solid ties...

If Kerry can't address his illegal ties to 527 MoveOn.org, I don't see how anybody can respect him for being honest and up front... He's demanding Bush do all these things towards the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, yet he's completely trying to pretend his own ties to MoveOn aren't even an issue... In the light of Kerry's repeated attacks against Bush, and announcing all these supposed ties, why does Kerry believe the door only swings one way on this issue???

With the media on Kerry's side, he knows he can continue this attack without any fear of someone asking him to do the exact same things he's asking Bush to do. He knows the media will fully ignore the long list of ties he has to MoveOn.org... He knows they will be able to keep attacking Bush and doing his own dirty work...

I really hate Hippocrates, and in this instance, Kerry is being the biggest I've seen in a very long time... Until he addresses the same accusations against him that he's making against Bush, I think people in general should simply say they won't listen to his accusations until he comes forward addressing his own...

On my way home from work yesterday I drove by a fire on the Conejo Grade. I snaped several pictures, though many of which turned out bad due to glare from the sun and a dirty winshield. The posts before this one each contain a photo (they're all different). By the time I got by the fire, it was pretty much out. There was just smoking & they were cooling down hotspots by this time...

At any rate, take a look. Please note that I do NOT recomend taking pictures while driving. It can be very dangerous as taking your eyes off the road in front of you even for a second, especially in stop & go traffic, can easily cause an accident...

Swift Boat Vets Vow to Press On

Ahem...

Dean said the veteran who appeared in the second Swift boat ad%2C Ken Cordier%2C was %22part of the Bush campaign%2C%22 even though the White House has described him as a volunteer member of a panel on veterans policy unconnected to the president%27s campaign.

Yah? And Kerry's internet directer was formerly MoveOn.org's internet director. Give me a friggin break...

Democrats Introduce Plan to Stimulate the Economy

Wow, look towards the bottom of this page!

The Democratic Party is partnering with MoveOn.org...

Interesting that the Democrats are teaming up with 527 MoveOn.org... And at the same time the Kerry Camp is crying foul in regards to republican ties to Swift Boat Veterans for Truth...

Web of Connections

If you believe Kerry's saying Bush has direct ties with Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, then maybe this will clarify Kerry's toes to MoveOn.org...

Bush Saying Stop 'Swift Boat' Ads

Well, appears Kerry is getting what he wants, however I do see one interesting conundrum here.

The Swift Boat Veterans for Truth is an independent group comprised of Vietnam Veterans, putting an ad up about their feelings of Kerry.

If I wanted an ad about Kerry, and I pay for my ads time, why can someone else decide I shouldn't show the ad. I know if I had a personal message about Kerry, or anybody else for that matter, my main goal would be to spread my message. Being the Swift Boat ads never endorse president Bush, it's not really right for him to ask for it to stop...

And when has Bush demanded an ad put up by MoveOn.org or other similar type groups be stopped? It may have happened before, but I sure can't remember when...

Tongue Tied

Ahem...

The Times is also shocked that sports games include African-American players. NBA Ballers, for example, features stars of the National Basketball Association "most of them black"

Being that the majority of NBA stars are black, what would you expect? I think they would be more shocked if the game only included white players...

Kerry & Bush in Political Firefight

Well, this is new news to me, apparently there is

direct evidence of overlapping consultants & overlapping fund-raisers..

Between Swift Boat veterans for Truth & Bush/Cheney...

I was fully unaware of this. Where is this direct evidence??? I hardy believe that someone knowing someone constitutes direct evidence...

If this is the case, there is a ton more direct evidence of a linking between good 'ole 527 MoveOn.org and Kerry, being there are people on Kerry's staff that used to work for MoveOn.org, and vise-versa...

Kerry should know, if he's going to open the door, he needs to be prepared to walk though it himself... I'm willing to bet there's much more direct evidence of a Kerry & MoveOn.org tie than ever could be cooked up between the Swift Boat Veterans & Bush/Cheney...

Kerry Camp Opponents Release Dueling Ads

Interesting...

The people attacking John Kerry's war record are funded by Bush's big money supporters....

Lets get a couple facts straight for the record. Yesterday Kerry claimed "Hundreds of thousands of dollars were given by a republican to fund..."

This is actually a bit of a truth stretch, it was $100,000 total given by one a Republican... And since when does a donation to a non-political & non-partisan organization made by a Republican automatically invalidate the organization's message??? Would the only way this message could even be remotely true be acknowledged if it was funded solely Democrats??? Do note that the group openly attempted to get funding from various sources... However after a press conference the [liberal] media decided to ignore the group...

It's also important to note that there are also democrats in this group, including a couple who are planning on voting for Kerry...

Also note that there is no solid evidence to tie Bush to this ad/book. The Kerry campaign can try to draw all the lines they want; there is currently no evidence to a direct link... The Kerry campaign's claim is based on the fact that a donor's friend's husband (or something like that) is part of the Bush team.

Also note for the record, the ads against Bush, which Kerry Denounced came from MoveOn.org. The Kerry campaign and the DNC has had many, many direct ties with MoveOn.org, not to mention that MoveOn.org is in fact a highly political organization. Also try to remember that MoveOn.org was founded to defend Bill Clinton during his impeachment saga, and people such as Al Gore have developed close ties to the radical left-wing group. Why does the media not mention any of this stuff???

I really think it's interesting that the Kerry campaign is claiming secret ties of Bush to The Swift Boat Veterans For Truth (for which there's currently no proof), while at the same time there are openly direct ties between Kerry, the DNC & MoveOn.org... It seems so openly backwards, yet never even mentioned on air...

Kerry Strikes Back Against Vietnam Criticism

I find this so amazing. This ad questions Kerry on some issues, and Kerry is making a huge ruckus about it. However there exist this day tapes where Kerry claimed the men around him (many the same men taken part in this ad) willingly raped Vietnamese women, shot & killed civilians, razed villages, and a huge long list of much more...

So why is it OK for Kerry to claim these people around him did these terrible things on the record, but now that a huge group got together and happen to be turning the tables (all of who may be telling the truth), it's a huge terrible thing that is Bush's fault??? I really don't understand why Kerry and literally a few others (who were actually there) are accusing a huge group of honorable veterans of lying (in not so many words), and then expect everybody to be certain this group of 60 are the dishonest ones (being indirectly paid/supported by Bush), compared to him and a literally small group of others (who were actually in Vietnam). It seems to me he's trying to pin this on Bush because he knows he can't tackle the people making the accusations against him. He's trying to let the media do that because he knows they can go to any lengths to get information to fall where they want it. Kerry's only course of action is to blame the president while seemingly ignoring the very people who are making these claims...

These statements I made don't even take into account inhuman things Kerry himself directly stated he did on the record. Why were these things OK for Kerry to do without punishment while the people involved in Abu Ghraib are being court marshaled and sent to prison for acts remarkably petty compared to Kerry's own confession? Should we just ignore Kerry's on the record confessions???

Protest Warrior HQ

I just watched the video clip that was on the page linked above, and practically died laughing on the floor! Apparently some very smart conservatives positioned themselves for the Today show taping, and managed to clearly display signs reading "Don't believe the Liberal media" several times on the show...

The funniest point has to be towards the end, when every time the camera redirects back on the hosts, the sign pops up out of no where. It's also the only sign you can actually read, which makes it just that much more funnier... The beginning is pretty funny too when you see the 2 hosts turn around, then in the background you see one sign clearly drop revealing the "Don't believe..." Sign...

I have to give these guys a lot of credit, they really planed this whole event out perfectly! I don't think it could have been done any better if they had complete control of the whole show...

Quite a crack up overall, you really should watch it!!!

Help Kerry do a 180!

This is an interesting story:

Help John Kerry do a '180'!
It's hard to believe that flip-flopper John Kerry would have trouble doing a '180' on any important issue, but he's really struggling with this one.

Here's John Kerry's problem:

John Kerry's fellow Vietnam Navy swift boat veterans say he is lying about his Vietnam experiences. They say Kerry's lies got him enough purple heart medals to get him a quick trip home from Vietnam. How do they know John is lying? Because they were there -- at the very scenes John is lying about.

Kamp Kerry and the DNC say Kerry's fellow Vietnam Navy swift boat veterans are the ones who are lying. And -- in an astonishing, out-of-character display of 'that's my story and I'm stickin' to it,-- John Kerry has come squarely down on only ONE side of an issue.

It's amazing.

If ever John Kerry needed to do a '180,' it's NOW.

Here's John Kerry's solution:

We need to help out John Kerry. We need to join forces and help him do a 180, as in Standard Form 180 -- the form used to authorize the release of military records. Let's send John Kerry his 180.

All he has to do is sign it and his records will be released, quickly showing who is lying and who is telling the truth.

The form is available online at: http://www.archives.gov/research_room/obtain_copies/standard_form_180.pdf

I've printed one out & stuffed it into an envelope, and am going to mail it out here in the next few minutes. C'Mon & do it too, join me!!! Either Kerry should have nothing to be afraid of, or there's something very bad -- in which case the public should be allowed to find out!!!

He made accusations about Bush & his military records, why should Kerry be allowed to sneak by using a different standard???

Ummm, someone just informed me that the things Clinton said wern't supposed to be funny. So I have to say I'm a little embarrased... Of corse this has also left me very confused... It may take some time for me to sort this out... So again, I'm sorry... If I can figure this one out I'll post about it again...

I tell you, I just finished watching Bill Clinton on The Daily Show and I have to say I was quite supprised! I never realized he was aspiring to be a comedian. I swear I was laugning so hard I missed half of what he said...

At least he's finally moved on with his life, and is finally focus on something other than polotics... Clinton & comedy, who knew?

I've now set up a method allowing visitors to my blog to rate my posts. If you to go a single post's page, you will see down on the lower right of the article a rating box. You can choose anything from 1 to 5 (5 being highest, 1 being lowest) and then vote.

After voting (assuming you have cookies on), you will see the overall current rating of the post. This is to just give me a basic idea what people think. Please note that if for some strange reason, you decide to come up with some method to vote multiple ways, you really won't be accomplishing much, as the voting is simply a gauge for myself, and the overall rating value in the end changes nothing...

But please feel free to vote whatever you feel any post deserves...

I found an interesting article talking about how Kerry knocks Bush for inaction on 9-11 the other day, which I had made a small post about.

Yet Kerry himself basically admitted that after the second WTC plane hit:

...we shortly thereafter sat down at the table and then we just realized nobody could think, and then boom, right behind us, we saw the cloud of explosion at the Pentagon...

Based on the difference in time between the second plane hitting the world trade center, and the plane hitting the pentagon, this basically indicates Kerry sat unable to think for around 40 minutes, give or take 10-ish minutes... And now he's criticizing Bush for sitting calm & not acting for 7 minutes after hearing about what happened... How much harsher would Kerry's criticism be if Bush had actually sat there dumbfounded for 30-40 minutes himself...

I decided to hilite some quotes made by Kerry in the Kerry on Iraq Documentary. The timeline makes more sense in the actual video (due to elements like Dems public opinion), but this does show a pretty clear transition starting on one side then, then ending up on the other...

Kerry - 11/12/97: Where is the backbone of Russia? Where's the backbone of France? Where are they in expressing their condemnation on such clearly illegal activity? But in a sense, they're now climbing into a box...

Kerry - 02/22/98: [Talking about the idea of going to war with Iraq] I am way ahead of the commander in chief, and probably way ahead of my colleagues, and certainly of much of the country. But I believe this. I believe that he has used these weapons before, he has invaded another country, he views himself as a modern day Nebakanezer... And I think we have to stand up to that.

[Bush takes office 1/2000]

Kerry - 12/11/01: I think we need to put the presser on [Saddam Hussein], no matter what the evidence is about September 11th.

Kerry - 12/14/01: I think we clearly have to keep the pressure on terrorism globally. This doesn't end with Afghanistan... And it is absolutely vital that we continue, for instance, with Saddam Hussein.

Kerry - 07/29/02: [Talking about diplomacy] Do we have to go though that process? The answer is yes. We're precisely doing that. That's what Colin Powell did today [at the UN].

Kerry - 07/29/02: I agree completely with this Administration's goal of a regime change in Iraq...

Kerry - 09/06/02: If Saddam Hussein is unwilling to bend to the international community's already existing order, then he will have invited enforcement. Even if that enforcement is mostly at the hands of the United States, a right we retain even if the [UN] Security Council fails to act.

Kerry - 09/15/02: I disagree with John McCain that it's the actually weapons of mass destruction he may use against us. It's what he may do in another invasion of Kuwait, or... he may even slide these weapons off to terrorist groups... to use them against the United States.

Kerry - 09/17/02: But the president as I wrote... always reserves the right to act unilaterally to protect the interest of our country.

Kerry - 05/03/03: ...I would have preferred if we had given diplomacy a greater opportunity. But I think it was the right decision to disarm Saddam Hussein... And I support the fact that [the president] did disarm him.

Kerry - 08/31/03: ...and the fact is, in the resolution we passed, we did not empower the president to do a regime change...*

Kerry - 10/12/03: ...but the president and his advisors did not do almost anything correctly in the walk up to the war. They rushed to war, they were intent on going to war...*

Kerry - 09/14/03: [Asked ...will you then vote against the 87 billion?] I don't think any United States senator is going to abandon our troops, and recklessly leave Iraq... That's irresponsible...I don't think anyone in the congress is not gonna not give our troops ammunition, not give our troops the ability to be able to defend themselves...

Kerry - 10/17/03: [On 87 billion appropriation for Iraq & Afghanistan] NAY*

Kerry - 01/06/04: [Asked Are you one of the anti-war candidates?] Uh, I am..? Yeah.

Kerry - 03/16/04: I actually did vote for the 87 billion*, before I voted against it*.

Kerry - 07/11/04: [Asked do you think the war was a mistake?] I think I answered your question. I think the way we went to war was a mistake.

I left out quite a bit, so I strongly encourage you to watch the whole thing!

Think I'm makin' this stuff up or taking everything out of context? Then by all means, watch it and decide for yourself!!!

Iraq_Medium.mov (45 MB)

I began wathcing a video about Kerry on Iraq was a little shocked.

I only watched about a minute or two of the video, but based on everything said, if you compare the Kerry shown in the beginning of the video to the one we've all grown to know, it seems like Kerry's evil twin has taken the origional Kerry's place. Kerry sounds just as admiate, if not more, than Bush was/is...

Take a look: Iraq_Medium.mov (45 MB)

I was looking for some info on the net and ran across this.

There is an accusation that Bush knew about 9/11, and they site the following comment from one of his Speeches:

"...And I was sitting outside the classroom waiting to go in, and I saw an airplane hit the tower -- the TV was obviously on, and I use to fly myself, and I said, 'There's one terrible pilot.' And I said, 'It must have been a horrible accident.'"

Being the Democrats always seem to play up the misuse of words and grammatical mistakes in his speeches, did anybody ever stop to think that maybe his statement that he saw the first plane was a mistake? One thing he no doubtedly saw was the result of the first plane (before the second hit). If you replace the "...I saw an airplane hit the tower..." with "I saw the result of the first plane hitting the tower", this speech is then correct.

If you think back, how clearly do you remember seeing the second plane hitting the tower? How many times did you see the video? I think nobody can honestly remember how many different times & angles we saw of the second plane hitting the tower on that day alone. It's an easy mistake to make, especially if you try to think about the specifics of what happened and when.

I remember hearing about all that happened (I was at work), but for the life of me cannot specifically remember if both towers had been hit by the time I first heard about it, or if I heard about the first, then the second...

The speech this was quoted from was most likely not fully rehearsed. 9/11 was chaotic, and I think its difficult for most of us to remember the exact order of events clearly. The level of emotional distress that many of us experienced make the details really hard to get clear. It's like the old attach: If 3 people witness a car accident, and you ask each of them individually what happened, you will get 3 different stories...

If in fact Bush knew what was going to happen before the day began, I would expect information like this wouldn't "slip" out, as the site claims here...

Kerry slams Bush for lack of immediate action on September 11

Democratic presidential hopeful John Kerry (news - web sites) slammed US President George W. Bush (news - web sites) for not jumping to action when he heard about the September 11, 2001 attacks.

What I find so ironic abou this is the fact that, had Bush immedately jumped up and ran out of the room, the Dems would be bashing him saying he was rash, and did little to calm the children that he was reading to. They would be accusing him of not being cool headed, and say he lost control...

This issue has little to do with what happened, and everything to do with the Dems partican attacks on our president.

And if you think that he should have jumped up right away, then maybe you should read about how the Sarasota principal defends Bush from "Fahrenheit 9/11" portrayal:

"I don't think anyone could have handled it better," Tose'-Rigell told the Sarasota Herald-Tribune in a story published Wednesday. "What would it have served if he had jumped out of his chair and ran out of the room?"...

The principal said she didn't vote for Bush. "But that day I would have voted for him."

Kerry is trying to find any little piece of information to attack Bush with. Next he'll be saying how bad Bush's choice of tie was on that day...

The other day I was watching TV & remember seeing a political speech of sorts, given by a child. Though I may very well be wrong, I *think* it was from the Democratic National Convention.

At any rate the child made a comment about a recent epithet used by Vice President Cheney. Her statement was something like: "The Vice President used a word that if I would have used it, I would have gotten in trouble..."

This was in reference to the VP's use of the 'F' word. Immediately after she said this, I remember the entire audience breaking into applause, in a sense agreeing with her.

When this happened my jaw nearly hit the floor. The only thing I can think is that a short term memory comes with the territory of politics.

If some of you aren't sure what I'm referring to, imagine a group of hopeful Democrat nominees at the end of 2003. Then picture John F'ing Kerry giving an interview to Rolling Stone magazine, in an attempt to entice young Americans to his side.

During this interview Kerry purposefully used the 'F' word in anti-Bush tirade...

So the question comes to mind of which is worse, if you can actually claim that one of the two is. I'm sure some will read this & say that the manner in which the term was used by Cheney was much worse than the context of Kerry's interview. However, keep in mind that he said this with every knowledge that millions of Americans, some of them very young, would read this all over the country...

The VP on the other hand made a rash remark directed at an individual who was being a pain in the neck... His reasons for using it were similar to the reasons Teresa Heinz Kerry told a reporter to "shove it"...

So when this all boils down, I don't really see how anybody could argue that the VP's words were any worse than anything Kerry or Heinz have done on the record...

Something tells me if this child used the terms both Kerry & Heinz made, she wouldn't be in any less trouble...

Kerry: Bush Asleep on Intel Reform

Kerry told FNS that he could increase international cooperation in Iraq, but he refused to give any details on how he would make that arrangement.

Umm, so I guess this still means that Kerry's plan for Iraq is still:
  "                                                      ,                                                                .                      '                    ..."
