Hanging Out in the Precinct, June 2, 2004

<span style='color:#B92C15 '><span style='font-size:12pt;line-height:100%'>http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/flag17.gif Good Morning http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/gopusa.gif </span></span>

<span style='color:navy'>Happy Wednesday! http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/elefant.gif

It's a big day in the Precinct because it's Matt's birthday.

http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/HB.gif Have a great day, Matt! http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/HB.gif

It's a big day in Colorado Springs because the president will be here to deliver the keynote speech for the Air Force Academy graduation. http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/usflag22.gif *

I really, really wish we could go but it's just too long a day for hubby. He used to go to every one of them and I went to quite a few too. The Interstate practically shuts down with the traffic jams and security will be very tight this year. That's ok. I want them to take very good care of our president. http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/soldier.gif

The weather across the tornado belt has been awful the last week. Last night must be the 5th night of it. This time it was the Ft. Worth/Dallas area that was hit. I hope all our friends down there are ok. http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/yikes.gif

The president gave a great speech on the new Iraqi government yesterday and even an impromptu news conference. What do you think? Can the new Iraqi government make it? http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/crossfingers.gif

There is an FBI alert out for two stolen tanker trucks missing from San Antonio and loaded with thousands of gallons of liquid propane. http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/shocked1.gif

Oil prices have taken another big jump after the terrorist attacks in Saudi. Is there anyone who doesn't believe this is an attempt to wreck our economy before the election? http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/it.gif

The Scott Peterson trial started yesterday and is supposed to last 6 months. It's already been a year and a half. http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/shake.gif

I know that you all heard about that one judge put a permanent ban on the new PBA law. No matter that 2/3 of Congress approved this law and the president signed it. One person, in the form of a judge, can say it is all right to murder a baby that could live on it's own. http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/fire.gif

Wise Words *"I also think it's unrealistic and dangerously naive to assume that we're going to get all the nukes in a lockbox somehow. I don't think that's going to happen anytime soon. The effort is worthwhile, but I don't think you're ever going to get 100 percent." Porter Goss, pointing out that Kerry lives in a fantasy world. (see flake quote below) http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tqrolleyes.gif

Flake of the Day! *"We have done too little, often too late, and we have even cut back on our efforts or turned away from the greatest threat that we face in this world today -- a terrorist armed with nuclear weapons. We also don't need a world with more usable nuclear weapons. We need a world where terrorists can never find one, make one or use one." John Kerry, who has contributed greatly to "too little, too late" http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/doh.gif

Please remember to pray for our President and for our servicemen and women who are still in harm's way.

God Bless our great country. http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/flag19.gif *May Freedom ever ring!</span>

Howdy Y'All,

http://www.terminweb.com/weblog/images/smallkk.jpgs and http://www.terminweb.com/weblog/images/smallchockk.jpgs are back after a few days absense. There's a special candle-topped http://www.terminweb.com/weblog/images/smallkk.jpg for Matt's birthday.

We're OK. A lot a wind and rain at my house, but no hail. LOTS of lightning!!

I've been kinda http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/ostrich.gif about the news the past few days. One side of me says that it's good to take a break, but then there's the other side that's wondering why I feel so uninformed. I'll spend the morning checking out what I've missed. I did hear about Senator Kerry's very presidential(?) conduct at the Vietnam Memorial. I suppose he thinks he's already wrapped up the election, so personal conduct isn't important anymore. NOT!

Off to the salt mines. Later...

[m.s.u.matt]

GOOD MORNING and thanks for the Birthday Wishes...you all are the best.

Boy it feels good to be able to get in here in the morning again.

Well, off to morning mass, see you in the afternoon.

[pRIMrose]

<span style='color:green'>Happy Birthday Matt ~ and welcome back. http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif Rex is exhausted from looking for you. http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin2.gif</span>

Terri ~ I have great hopes for the new Iraqi government. I, too, will keep my fingers http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/crossfingers.gif They have a tremendous struggle ahead. This is such an important undertaking. The stability of the area depends on what happens in Iraq, IMO. This is what the Islamic terrorists fear the most ~ a free and stable Iraq may encourage the other terrorist countries to clean up their act too. However, I expect things to get messy before they get better.

Scott Peterson http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/barf.gif ~ I'm really sick and tired of watching "dueling lawyers" put on their media shows at the expense of real justice.

Quote[/b] ]Is there anyone who doesn't believe this is an attempt to wreck our economy before the election?

No "bout a doubt" it. http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/doh.gif The terrorists found out that intimidation works, ie: Spain, France, Germany, (et al) so why not "cut to the chase" and hit the one place that would disrupt the entire world economy and most assuredly impact our election. http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif

As for Phyllis J. Hamilton, the godless judge who did this, there aren't enough words to describe my utter disgust for her ~ and the words I would use would get me banned. http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/fire.gif http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/fire.gif http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/fire.gif Nobody, and I mean <span style='font-size:15pt;line-height:100%'>NOBODY</span> will ever convince me that a woman doesn't know long before coming to term that she wants or needs an abortion. With today's technology and tests they can learn everything they need to know before the second trimester. THIS IS A DISGUSTING MISUSE OF JUDICIAL POWER AND SHOULD BE STOPPED. PERIOD. The AMA doesn't even support this butchery.

Quote[/b] ](June 25, 1997) For only the second time in 150 years, the American Medical Association, on June 24, 1997, endorsed legislation to prohibit a "medical procedure." The 475 members of the House of Delegates, representing the 297,000 members of the AMA (40% of all US physicians), seconded the earlier unanimous endorsement of the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act by the 20 member AMA Board of Trustees on May 19. The voice vote was "overwhelmingly in favor" of approval, according to Katharine Q. Seelye of the New York Times.

"Several doctors," reported Seelye, "called the procedure -- known by its critics as 'partial-birth abortion' and medically as 'intact dilation and extraction' -- repugnant and infanticide." ~~ Source (http://www.peopleforlife.or g/amahouse.html)

And a letter from the American Medical Association (AMA), to Senator Rick Santorum (R-Pa.), expressing support for the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act (HR 1122). (http://www.nrlc.org/amaletter.html)

This rant may disappear from this thread but my bookmarks won't and they will surely show up in the appropriate thread on PBA. http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/fire.gif

Now I really do need another cup of http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/coffee.gif and some soothing http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/music.gif BBL, when I'm a little more http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/calm.gif http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrinangelA.gif

[flowerpower]

Good morning all!!

Happy Birthday Matt...glad to see you !!


The partial abortion is nothing short of murder. This child could live if given birth. What would make any woman carry a child that long only to have a doctor plunge something in its skull to kill it??? And they say we are civilized??? Nothing about this procedure is civilized. Murder plain and simple ..no other way to look at it. The feminist left is so afraid that abortion will be banned. Well too bad... As much birth control and information is available these days...there is no reason for abortion. It does seem that a lot of people are terribly misinformed about birth control. So they get pregnant...oh its ok..I will just have an abortion. Not a good way to go. Its wrong.

Good luck to the new iraq government. I think this is an important step and hopefully the insurgents will get the message. Iraq is free...get on board or get run over!

Welcome back Dave...going on withdrawl here from no kk's!

The entire issue surrounding PBA makes me so upset, and feel so ill, what carnage. http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad1.gif

Life has been so busy and http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/crazy.gif around here, and my kids have 'short-timers' disease (school gets out next Friday). *We have had a lot of storms but nothing like the midwest, I can't imagine all those twisters *yikes*!

Off to take my http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/ukflag.gif friend to downtown DC, doing more sightseeing with her (and walk off some doughnuts!). *

Be back later, have a great day all! http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/grouphug.gif

Good morning, All,
Happy birthday, Matt and many happy returns to a fellow martial artist! Congratulations!

Rose, I am totally with you on your feelings about "judge" Hamilton. There's no excuse for PBA to be done. To be honest, I wonder how she'd feel if a vice was placed on her own head and someone said, "Gee, Judge, you're a liberal so the pain you're going to experience is irrelevant." Think she'd change her mind? She's an idiot...there has to be a legal way to get her off the bench. <fuming to the max in Oklahoma>

John Kerry - too little, too late, too typically liberal. Do we really need more motivation to get out the vote and get people aware that this JFK must be defeated - not just a little - but by a precedent setting landslide?

I'm going to say something rather extreme but it's based on having lived in the middle east for about half of my life. There are only two ways to end the terrorist activity coming from that part of the world. One way is to convert them all to Christianity. Real Christianity - not some false offshoot. That's a very long shot and not too realistic. The other way, is to wipe every muslim nation off the face of the earth and end the practice of Islam. Islam, regardless of what anyone says, has at its very core, the goal of total global domination. Whether they do it peacefully, violently, economically, or socially - Islam intends to take over the entire world and make no mistake - they are on a roll and the only way to stop them is to stop them dead in their tracks. Realistically - not gonna happen. So, we're going to be at this war on terrorism forever. Get used to it.

Well, I'm off to work. Despite it all, Friends, do have a good day anyway and keep smiling! Maximize your day and may God bless you each and every one.

[Granite River]

Good morning all.

Quote[/b] ]Oil prices have taken another big jump after the terrorist attacks in Saudi.

The price of oil being determined by the fear of oil traders in NY City is crazy. My brother and I predicted that this would happen years ago when the government allowed speculation on oil futures. I think it was Jimmy Carter who agreed to this fiasco. Production is up but “FEAR” is driving the price up, meaning that we send even more money to Saudi. Let’s remember that the Saudi government let the killers go free. “Thanks for killing all of those oil workers and driving the price to record levels.”

A Germany company Metallgesellschaft (MG), was long crude oil futures on New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) most of 1993. They lost, depending on the estimate or source, $1.3 to $2.1 billion dollars. They never held a drop of oil they just held paper promising to buy oil at a price higher than the market price.

Quote[/b] ]One person, in the form of a judge,

You are very kind to call this judge a person. Sh-, “it” is another SF liberal who wants total freedom of the feminine spirit.

You are so right about Islam Jeff. It is an insidious viper and it is growing in South America. It is also growing right here in our country and we are patting it on the back and saying that we know that there are some good Muslims, like Malcolm X and Lewd Fairycon.

[pRIMrose]

Mornin' flower, Jeff & GR.

Jeff, you are oh so right on. http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/notworthy.gif Appeasing terrorists, like Churchill said, is just putting off the Alligators ~ in hopes they'll eat you last. Radical Islam is not going to magically evaporate or have an epiphany turning them Christian, or for that matter even human. They are barbaric animals and should be treated as such. They have infiltrated the entire globe and wherever they become numerous they create havoc. It's not just the US and Israel who are at risk, it's the entire planet.

If you don't think that there is a nefarious agenda regarding the radical musilims, just read what I posted in CE about this very judge who just blocked the ban on PBA, The same San Francisco federal judge who just overturned a federal law banning partial-birth abortions also approved of Muslim prayer in schools when federal rulings ban all other denominational prayers and activities. (http://www.gopusa.com/cgi-bin/ib3/ikonboard.pl?act=ST; f=1;t=12110;st=0;&#entry85754) If this doesn't jerk your chain nothing will. http://img.villagephotos.co m/p/2003-10/419342/bounce.gif This country is in a heep of trouble and we'd better start spreading the word.

I've been Pro-Life for years and it's been an uphill battle most of the time, but this PBA thing is so repugnant that I am at a loss for words (I know that sounds unbelievable!) When I have described the procedure to liberals they just don't believe me. They say I'm making it up. As I also said on a different thread, I told a liberal about "the Finger" incident, and she said "Well that just proves Kerry is a "real" person, and Bush is a phoney" WHAAAAAATT?http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/rock.gif?http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/rock.gif? How does one deal with a mindset like that? Decent people have a big job ahead trying to cut through that kind of BS.
Anyway, Jeff, I agree with you. However it is unlikely any kind of mass conversions will ever take place. No where does the Good Book predict the redemption of the armies of the antichrist. And anyone raising the alarm gets lambasted and ridiculed to death! John Rhys Davies (Gimli from LOTR) was on the Dennis Miller Show and talked about the destruction of our culture by Islam. He said it's already well under way in Europe. The opposing voices were not able to refute the man's facts, so they just attacked HIM and his character. It was very nasty.
Once more , Folks, I'm not into spreading hate. I feel that the greatest victims of Islam are the Muslims themselves. One only has to look at what the Taliban did to the people of Afghanistan! My heart goes out to the ordinary people who were born into and raised in that system. But there comes a time in every person's life when one has to say "NO MORE!" and break off the shackles that keeps one in darkness. I really would like to see more of that!

[Der Alte]

Good Morning All: This is another short entry - got to leave in a few minutes to go to the Heart Center and get educated on how to use the monitor for my titanium implant. http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/HB.gif Matt. I know you have been busy, but also knew you would have to show up today to get your birthday greetings http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

Glad to see all the posts where people are realizing that the muslim way of life is a definite threat to all of the western world. I may be wrong, but everything I've read, indicates that they have only one thing in mind and thats world domination. Europe has waited so long and brought in so many muslims that they really have some problems. Only hope the US will recoginize the problem before it gets to big to handle.

Is the judge problem caused by something in the water or is the way they are taught in college. This is a recent phenomenum and needs to be stopped.

Have a great day and hopefully I'll be able to get back this evening.

[Basheva]

Good Morning Everyone! It's nice to see you are all up and perky this morning.

Mary-Lou's post hit exactly the problem that I feel about Islam. On the one hand I look out into the world and I see that it is the cause of so much killing and anger. Even in places like Thailand, Moslems are killing Budhists (I saw on the news that they decapitated a Budhist yesterday). It is difficult not to feel myself welling up with anger - and I don't like that feeling.

When I hear a Moslem cleric in the UK announce that their aim is 1600 Pennsylvania Blvd., as well as 10 Downing Street - my reaction is visceral. We don't have to guess at their intentions, they are announcing them.

I am not as sanguine as some of you. I am not sure that the battle is long term winnable. They are already 10% of the electorate in Europe. That means that already the politicians are taking them into account. In a democracy all they need are sufficient votes to get things they want - like calls to prayer broadcast 5 times a day.

Then I look at the attrition......with just 19 people and a million dollars they not only killed 3000 people but have already cost us hundreds of billions in lost economy, in military costs, in security costs, ad infinitum. How many times can we absorb this? We might win the battles, but we might lose the war of attrition.

I don't like feeling angry. Then, I get angry at these people for causing me to feel this way!

On to better topics......

Today is a very special day for us. It's our wedding anniversary. To celebrate we are going for shrimp parmigana (I never could spell that word) at a favorite Italian restaurant. Then after that digests a bit, to a a special desert: BLACK AND WHITE ICE CREAM SODAS!

There is only one place in town that makes them authentically. A black and white ice cream soda is a work of gastronomic art - and we are very picky.

So, 42 years of wedding bliss - I think he's a keeper.

(Told you I was old.)

http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

[termind]

It seems I picked a great time to stay away from the news for awhile. Did I hear right--Senator Kerry is talking about nuclear weapons? Yet another issue he's gonna tackle without a plan.

That's some pretty powerful motivation for me to stay busy fighting for the President's re-election.

I've sent an e-mail to my Representative's office in Washington requesting information on how I, a private citizen, can ask for impeachment proceedings against a federal judge (specifically, Phyllis Hamilton). If I get a response, I'll share it with the group.

[flowerpower]

Basheva....Congrats! !! Well after 42 years...he must be a keeper!!

Do you know in some places in the UK...anglo saxons are a minority? Being the British Empire...and owning so many countries, a lot of them being musim..they have every right to live in the UK. Therefore, I think they will be sorry of this.

We have many muslims in this country. Not all of them are bad...but it seems the islamic religion has swung to the extreme. I think if you want to live in America...be an american... our founding fathers were not muslim. Many of the terrorists were educated in our schools...lived here...and still they want to take us down. I do think that we need to crack down on this religious group. I do however, trust my government that they are making the right decisions.
I would say to them...hey you wanna be muslim....then haul it back to the desert..live with the camels and eat sand but leave us alone!

re: Kerry and Nukes, I will quote my cousin Dianne from Massachusetts:
" If Kerry can't control his finger enough to keep from flipping it at a Vietnam Veteran, In front of the Wall, in front of school children, on Memorial Day, how can anyone trust that same finger to have access to the "button" God Help Us!"

[pRIMrose]

Hi DA http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wavey.gif ~ let us know how the "bionic" implant goes. http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/twothumbsup.gif I think more and more people are starting to see how dangerous the muslim mindset can be ~ good, bad or indifferent ~ the teachings are the same. World dominance by Islam.

Quote[/b] ]Once more , Folks, I'm not into spreading hate. I feel that the greatest victims of Islam are the Muslims themselves.

ML ~ the worst part of this is, there are almost two billion of them. We now have over a billion so called "victims." It's time they stood up and denounced terrorism and started doing something to save themselves from the bondage that have allowed. If we don't stop this march against the "infidels," who will? If the US should, God forbid, go down ~ who will be left to stop it?

Quote[/b] ]I don't like feeling angry. Then, I get angry at these people for causing me to feel this way!

Basheva ~ I don't think anyone likes the way being angry feels. I guess I am more concerned than angry. Anger gets you nowhere ~ but well placed concern just might. Edmund Burke said, "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." This problem is not going to go away and to ignore it could be fatal. It's already responsible for the murder of millions of people all over the globe. 3000 here, a couple hundred there, attack after attack ~ soon adds up. Thank goodness we have a president who didn't sit back chewing on a cigar or chasing a skirt around desk in his office while this whole mess was taking on a life of it's own. If ignorance is bliss, the last administration should be ecstatic.

OK ~ this has turned out to be my http://img.villagephotos.co m/p/2003-10/419342/Ranter.gif day ~ I'm really sorry, but sometimes you just can't hold it in. http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smash.gif Now I feel a little better. http://smilies.sofrayt.com/%5E/_950/cleverman.gif

I was without telephone and *http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/compute.gif from about 3:30 yesterday until 9:30 this a.m. *I went up the road to my neighbor's to use her phone and she said she'd seen the telephone company truck up the road so I went to visit him. *I asked him if he knew what had happened to *cause my phone to go out and he said that http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/mouse.gif *had crawled under the little metal post they put wires in and chewed them. *He called me after I got home and we double checked *to make sure all was well.

However, this whole happy story wasn't too happy to begin with. *When I called the tel. co. yesterday the woman I talked to said I should first check all my phones to make sure they were all plugged in. *She paused, as though expecting me to run home and check on them. *I told her I had checked and my neighbor's house is a quarter mile away. * *Then she asked if there was a dial tone? *No, there isn't. *Then I should go home and unscrew the lid off the interface box on the house. *It's raining it's pouring, the old man is snoring, and the http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/mosquito.gif es are *ready to fly off with the truck. *So I go home, get a screwdriver, go into the rain *and prepare to remove a screw. *http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/mosquito.gif es now have the scent! *Oh help! *It doesn't require a screwdriver. *It requires a hex wrench. *Get away from me you d@m^ed http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/mosquito.gif es or I'll get the gun!! *Back in the house to get The Hub because I don't know where the hex wrench is. *I unjack the handset and plod outside, plug it in and................. ......no dial tone. *Back in the house, change sweatshirt for dry one. *Now it's a matter of waiting for the repairman.

It is another http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/light.gif http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sunflower.gif morning here in Central Wyoming. Temps are expected to get into the high 70s today. I am going to enjoy the low temps now, because they will get hotter as the summer goes along.

Nice to see that you are ok, Dave. I was getting a little worried. Was about to send out the St. Benard to look for you. You know the one; the one that has the little cask of brandy around it’s neck.

http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/HB.gif Matt. Glad to see that you have come back to share your thoughts.

Happy 42nd anniversary Basheva. You must of picked that rignt one the first time. May you guys make it to 50

Now that the greetings are over, I guess I’ll grab a couple of the chocolate covered sprinkled kk. I also need that http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/cup.gif of http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/f_coffee.gif this morning.

I always thought that Mike Wallace was a fool. Now I know it for a fact. All I can say is that 60 Minutes just lost a few more viewers, many of them were WW2 veterans. He and Dan Rathernot are living in a fantasy land. Or is just Alzimhers kicking in?

I knew that the left-wing media would blast the press conference that President Bush gave yesterday. They also totally dismissed the story about the hand over of the Iraqi grovernment from the Iraqi Governing Council. It was good news for Mr Bush, so it didn’t rate as a top story.

I am going to listen to President Bush give the commencement address to the Air Force Academy Gradutates. Fox News is saying that it is billed as major foreign policy speech.

Lurch doesn’t know s**t from shinola about nuclear weapons. He still thinks that if the United States gives ours, the rest of the world follow suit. IMHO if it wasn’t for our nukes, we would have ceased to exist a long time ago.

Had to get a new dish on my Dtv system yesterday. The old one was whipped by the wind so much that it worn out the bolt holes.

Hello there good people of the forum. *Could someone tell me how to get more emoticons I don't know where everyone is getting them...am I dumb or what?

happy Birthday Matt!!!

OK...now for my Luxembourg story! There was a ceremony on Sat at the cemetery. Complete with cannon fire! Someone had placed an American flag, a Luxembourgish flag, and a single red rose at every grave. Of course, some graves had other flowers as well. I can't describe how impressive (not in the modern sense of the word) the cemetery was.

I as also struck by how there is no stopping at the border. We had passports in hand, and I was looking forward to a stamp. But, everyone just cruises across the boarder at 100MPH. I was disappointed about the stamp. My poor passport has not a single stamp in it. How sad is that?! I didn't even get stamped at the airport in Frankfurt when I arrived! My old passport had stamps! And I had to turn that one in!!!! grrrr....OK, enough whining! http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif LOL It was somewhat worrisome though...if we were terrorists, how would they know?! Makes me wonder how they know certain terrorists are in whatever country...

Anyway, I'm off to post pics on my website, so I will cross post them to the member's topics forum in about 1/2 an hour or so!

Since stan asked....I posted pics of my whole family in my Luxembourg thread. Including *drum roll* 2 pics of me! Both are terrible...but since i don't like pics being taken of me, I shy away from the camera even while pics are being taken (hence in one of the pics, I'm trying to hide behind a pony, and the other, I'm hiding behind poor Rosie). How's this? We're hosting our first BBQ of the season this Sat. I'll have hubs take a pic of me. No complaining from me. And I'll post it. No complaining from me. LOL

I also have a lovely, pic of my handsome man in uniform. But, alas, it's outdated. I'll have to take a pic of him this weekend too, since I haven't gotten any of him since he got contacts a few weeks back.

Anyway...I'm off to beddy bye land...since it's pushing midnight here! And I have some dusting and sweeping to do tomorrow in prep for the BBQ (amazing how I can sweep up a whole new dog worth of dog fur off these floors every other week!!!). http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/usflag22.gif

[Commodore Barrett]

The Commodore & his Lady unto the Forum: greetings.

First out of the box: the President addressed the graduating Cadets at the Air Force Academy today; Fox News Channel and Talon News have details on their Websites. Suffice it to say, the President has stated to the effect that it is better for the USA to take on the Terror International in its own lair rather than risk a repetition of September 11, 2001. And that is a good thing.

Re the Federal Judge who, in her own mind, set at naught the collective leadership of the United States. She decided herself rather than accept a jury trial. There the Judiciary erred, without prejudice to the merits of the case. Social issues are too important to be left to just one judge's opinion. Hence the necessity of Courts of Appeal. Ultimately, the Congress is going to have to revisit the issue, through a superseding Act. This Act is going to have to include either of two sets of judicial language: 1) Judicial Opinion on the proceedings covered by this Act is modified herewith in accordance with this Act; or 2) Proceedings under this Act are not subject to Judicial Review by Article III Judges.

Then watch the fur fly!

They especially don't want to admit that President Bush was right to invade Iraq. Liberals want to remake this country in their own image.

Commodore, liberal judges don’t want jury trials on matters, such as these. They know if they get a jury, there is a chance that the trial won‘t go their way. That is why groups like Planned Parenthood and the ACLU like these judges. The judges agree with their agenda and will rule in favor of them.

I don't want to hear anymore bad news from the media schmucks in Iraq or laci's case either.

There are plenty of on-going cases just as tawdry and bawdry. *Just as sad and disheartening.
I do not want to hear about how 'special' laci is or how 'special' condit's victim was. *Every murder victim is 'special' to that family.

No "bout a doubt" it. http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/doh.gif *The terrorists found out that intimidation works, ie: Spain, France, Germany, (et al) so why not "cut to the chase" and hit the one place that would disrupt the entire world economy and most assuredly impact our election. http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif *
With kerry so buddy buddy with france, I can see where we would be going. *Just add us to the list of http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/bowlow.gif countries.

I agree. *Does anyone know of any examples of where this would be acceptable? I don't. *What ever happened to a C section. *not the murder of a term baby. *If you don't want the child, just birth him and donate him.

I agree with you 100%! We need to be angry! We need to do something about this. I just cannot believe that people are doing this to innocent babies. It just breaks my heart. http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/shake.gif

Quote[/b] ]Baby Survives Partial-Birth Abortion, Lives for Three Hours

CINCINNATI - The live birth of a 22-week-old unborn child during a partial-birth abortion this month has led pro-life advocates to call for new federal regulations banning the abortion procedure.

After undergoing the first part of a three-day abortion process at the Women's Med Center abortion facility in Dayton, Ohio, on April 6, the unidentified mother experienced abdominal pains the next morning and was rushed to a Cincinnati hospital where she gave birth, according to members of the Warren County (Ohio) Right to Life organization.
