Al-Qaida, U.S., Flagpole, After School.

An American Al-Qaida member is the star of a new video tape threatening the United States with attacks far worse then 9/11.
Article:
Wearing a white robe and a turban, Adam Yehiye Gadahn, who also goes by the name Azzam al-Amriki, said al-Qaida would not negotiate on its demands.
“Your failure to heed our demands … means that [...]

Johnny Be Rude

Yesterday was Memorial Day and I decided to stick with my Memorial Day post and not talk of politics. But today is a new day.
John Edwards….hum drum, small town boy, “I’ll save the poor”, “I love America”, “I support the Troops” Johnny….this guy, has really taken the cake this last week.

So what Cake did he [...]

A Day to Reflect and Remember

This weekend Families will be traveling, friends will get together, smoke will be rising from backyards, neighborhoods will smell of foods and ring with laughter, kids will be waving flags at parades, Bands will play, Veterans will wave.
All the while, others will be far from home, far from family, far from friends, far from the [...]

Ding Dong the Witch is Dead

Why CWonder, that’s not very nice!!!
Yes I know..but I don’t care

So after Thursday’s Kitty fight between Elizabeth and Rosie, Rosie calls it quits.
Hmmm, how interesting? Don’t you think?
Rosie the dragon spewing, psycho babbling, conspiracy theory’ing, leftist freakazoid couldn’t hang when the going got tough.
You want me to tell you how I really feel? (grin)
I [...]

Missing Soldiers, Subconscious Mourning

This morning I was watching Fox & Friends on Fox News  and they were interviewing Debbie Anzack, Aunt of PFC Joseph Anzack who is one of  three soldiers feared captured by Al-Qaida 5 days ago.
As I watched Debbie talk of her Nephew, how lovable and handsome, kind and gentle; tears forming in her eyes; it [...]

Military and the “Human” Factor

“I support the troops, I don’t support the war” has become an all too common montage.
Unfortunately, you can’t have one without the other. It’s such an oxymoron and yet understandable. But truthfully, I only say that to seem reasonable. Inside, I’d like to tear those two phrases apart.
Internet, 24 hour News stations…we have an inside [...]

Aim High? Or Putter Out?

Anyone who’s been in the military, working as a maintainer, knows how old the aircraft/equipment is.
We also know that the older they are; the more they break, the more time it takes to fix it, the more maintainers you need.
It’s an endless cycle but nothing new.
On May 8th, USA Today had a story on our [...]

UPDATE: Germany Heightened Terror Threat

Apparently ABC jumped the gun a little bit in using the word “Imminent”.
 We had been warned a couple of weeks ago to be “vigilant” and “keep our eyes open” to possible threats, so I figured this was just piggybacking off of that and they had more information. Uhh…guess not
 
Authorities had no indication of an [...]

BREAKING NEWS : Germany issues Heightened alert for U.S Military

Wonderful We’re a couple of hours away from the focus of this threat…though, Ramstein AFB is USAFE Headquarters.

According to U.S. and German officials, Islamist terrorists are planning an attack against U.S. military personnel or tourists in Germany. They are [...]

NY Times Dix Us

Surprising that the NY Times goes too far? I think not!
Instead of praising our Intelligence/FBI for grabbing these Bastards before they shot and killed a whole bunch-o-soldiers, They want to blame them.
Oh don’t let the Newspeak fool you!. (The proof is in the Bold!) 
At this point…they are raising questions. Seems like a set-up to me.
It [...]
