"THE DEMOCRATS END THEIR HONEYMOON WITH THE GOP"

@ 03:31 PM (34 months, 23 days ago)

BY: DR. FOREST LEWIS

I knew that it was just a matter of time before a democrat went back to doing what this party is noted for, being a party of obstructionists. The dems simply can't help themselves. It seems they get a kick out of "Shooting Themselves In The Foot". People like this have a "Self-Defeatist Personality". In other words, they can not stand being successful.

Delaware Senator, Joe Biden, who has the temerity to think that Americans are foolish enough to vote for him for President, has placed the Bush White House on notice. Biden says he will fight tooth and nail if the President do what most observers believe he will do:and that is increase the number of boots on the ground in Iraqi in the New Year.

You may be surprised, but, I find myself supporting this liberal socialist, somewhat. However, unlike Biden, my support for more troops is based on one caveat. If the President sends additional troops into the war torn country of Iraq to become moving targets, I am totally opposed to an upsurge in additional men and women going to this embattled troubled land.

However, if Mr. Bush turn our men loose and allow them to "Kick Some Insurgent Ass," then I say, go for it Mr. President. Our men have been playing with these cowards for too long. I say let them feel the full wrath of the U.S. Military. The critics be damned.

Biden has been tapped to steer the powerful Foreign Relations Committee. He said that he plans to hold a number of hearings starting January 9th. The thrust of his hearings will be centered around the recommendations made by the Baker-Hamilton Iraq Study Group.

Biden reports that Secretary of State Condolezza Rice has accepted his invitation to appear before one of his "Grandstanding Hearings". Face it folks, this guy is nothing more than a "Hotdog". Since we know that he has designs on the democratic presidential nomination, what do you expect Biden to do at these hearings,except mug for the cameras and engage in monologue after monologue. That is his signature mark, talking, ad nauseum.

Biden also likes to embarass the President, like many others in his party. He is hoping to get enough republicans to join him into pressuring the President to abandon any thoughts of an increasement in troop levels.

Apparently Joe Biden doesn't know George W. Bush. Once Bush makes up his mind on an issue, he is not like democrats who are always holding up one finger, to check which direction the political winds are blowing. Bush simply follows through.

Biden is of the opinion that republicans have more to lose in 2008, if the violence continues in Iraq, and there is still a large military presence there. Again, I have to agree with the Senator from Delaware.

Biden also had a warning for his fellow democrats, "I think we'll only have to accept responsibility for the war, if we remain silent".

The democrats are now in control of the House and "Maybe" the Senate. They can no longer throw political bombs at the President, and hide behind the "Hit And Run Media". The time has come for the democrats to show Americans that they are more than a thirty second sound bite.

The time has also come for the democrats to show Americans that they can do more than engage in partisan bickering.

I say don't bet the farm on it that the Pelosi's, the Reid's, the Kohn-Kerry's, and Ted Kennedy's will turn over a new leaf.

It is within their nature to blame the republicans for all that is wrong with America. However, that approach ended the morning after the last mid-term election.

Okay, Ms. Pelosi, and Joe Biden, it is time to put up or go back to being the minority party in both chambers of the House in 2008.

My money is on the democrats assuming their usual position of "The Minority Party In 2008".

It's like I said, the democrats can't help themselves, they are constantly "Shooting Themselves In The Foot". They fear being successful.

A good shrink could help the dems look at the causation of their fears. On second thought, forget it. They would have the shrink looking for a shrink.

"WHERE ARE THE REPUBLICANS AND CONSERVATIVES?"

@ 11:09 AM (34 months, 24 days ago)

BY: DR. FOREST LEWIS

By now, most of us understand that President Bush "Ain't No Ronald Reagan". We also know that Mr. Bush is not a conservative.

If Mr. Bush were a conservative, he would not hesitate to speak out on such hot button issues as:

- Immigration

- Gay Marriage

- Gay Civil Unions

- The Socialist News Media

- Affirmative Action

- The Loss Of Manliness In America

- The Control Of America's Universities/Colleges

By Socialists and Communists Professors/Administrators

This column is not about "Bush Bashing," it is about how the President missed his opportunity to go down in American history as a great President, ala, Ronald Reagan.

Make no mistake about it, Mr. Bush has done some wonderful things. For example, he has been vigilant in protecting America against IslamoFascists. Something, the dimwitted democrats refused to give the President credit for. America has not been attacked since September 11th, 2001. You would never know that given the rhetoric from such naysayers as John Kohn-Kerry, John Murtha, Harry Reid, Howard Dean, Diane Feinstein, Barbara Boxer, et. al.

The President has also been wonderful for our economy. He hasn't gotten the credit that he deserves for our robust economy because "It Is So Good". The socialist media has refused to tout this accomplishment, because it goes against their agenda. However, if our economy was in the dumps, the socialist media would be all over the President, like fleas on a hound dog.

The President has also kept God in the forefront during his time in the White House; something that liberals despise. Liberals have a deep antipathy for the Creator. Liberals think they are "God". If you carefully study their modus operandi, you will notice that liberals are constantly trying to "Save Us". Actually, what liberals are attempting to do is "To Control Us". They despise free thinkers.

A free thinker is able to see through their pathetic paradigm. A free thinker is also fiercely independent. Liberals on the other hand, love people to be dependent on them. They love welfare, affirmative action, and any other program that place, "We The People" under their control.

No, Mr. Bush is not on the same scale as say, Jimmy Carter. However, as his time winds down in the oval office, I recently reflected on the many opportunities that the President has had to distinguish himself. However, rather than address controversial issues like, gay marriage, and immigration, the President has been noticeably quiet on these issues that conservatives are so passionate about. These are issues that conservatives and "Real Republicans" have waited for the President to take a proactive stand against. However, he has failed us.

Rather than addressing these important issues, the President has been reticent. Which signals to advocates of open borders and gay marriage, that the President is either with them; or he is not going to vigorously oppose their various harmful agendas. With the President being taciturn on these issues, it gives hope to forces who are determined to tear this country apart, that they can continue with their malevolent ways, because there will be "No" opposition coming from the Bush White House.

While the late President Gerald R. Ford is being remembered today as a healer, President Bush is seen as being weak, or has a lais-sez faire attitude on the salient issues noted above.

Conservatives have not had a fighter in the White House in the past six years. We have watched as the President has been reactive on key issues, rather than proactive. We have watched him being pummel by the socialist news media; and socialist democrats for six years. Mr. Bush has simply sat, and allowed these mean spirited people bludgeon his reputation and legacy. A conservative would have fought back, not with ad-hominems--but with intellectual toughness.

Kansas Senator, Sam Brownback said the other day that "values like opposition to abortion and gay marriage will distinguish him from others vying for the 2008 republican presidential nomination".

Brownback also had this to say. "I think there's room in the field for someone with full-scale conservative values: I don't think that end of the field's crowded".

Brownback is certainly right about the field not being crowded with conservatives. What is John McCain, Rudolph Guiliani, and Mitt Romney? Neither of the aforementioned presidential aspirants are dyed-in the wool conservative.

When one looks at the democratic side, we see such people as Hillary Clinton, and Barack Obama. Now, we can add John Edwards, who has had cosmetic surgery to remove the mole from his face. Edwards has announced that he is running for the democratic presidential nomination. I don't know about you, but these are frightening people. But, so are the republicans, or should I say, RINOS; Republican In Name Only. McCain is all for allowing illegal aliens in this country, to enter on a fast track to citizenship. Guiliani is against citizens having the inherent right to bear arms; and he is all for Gay Civil Unions. Mitt Romney is trying to distance himself from the old Mitt Romney, who at one time supported the homosexual movement, reportedly in toto.

The question at this juncture is who will speak for conservatives and republicans? 2008 is not that far away.

This country is not only in need of another "Healer," America needs a President who is not afraid to speak up on issues that could morally bankrupt this nation.

Americans are politically sophisticated: therefore, "Wannabe Conservative Presidential Candidates," please stay at home.

"TIME IS RUNNING OUT ON SADDAM HUSSEIN"

@ 12:36 PM (34 months, 25 days ago)

BY: FOREST LEWIS, Ph.D.

Saddam Hussein, the former "President" of Iraq, is a single case study into the psychopathology known as sociopathy.

A sociopath, or antisocial, has no conscious. This psychiatric malady appears to affect men more than it does women. People given this diagnosis are cold and heartless. They can kill another human being and experience not a single ounce of remorse. They have the ability to mete out punishment that would turn the stomachs of sane people.

Yet, a sociopath thinks what he is doing is the correct thing. Adolph Hitler was a sociopath. So was Pol Pot, and Benito Mussolini. These men had one thing in common; they could kill another human being and experience no searing of the human conscious.

Saddam Hussein joins this list of vile of human beings. Hussein is responsible for the murders of thousands of his own fellow Iraqis. While these people, the young, the old, children, women, and men died at the hands of Hussein's blood thirsty storm troopers, this tyrant was out building palaces for himself; and at the same time, gathering up billions of dollars.

Hussein's days of building images of himself, and living in palaces are over. He will soon leave this world and meet his maker. He will discover that he is nothing but a frail human being, who allowed the forces of evil to take of residence in his heart. He will also learn that death is not his final destination.

People like Saddam Hussein never learn. Despite their having ample knowledge of history, and what has happened to people like him before, these folks apppear to not be able to help themselves. They feel that they will be able to cheat Providence. However, God "always" the final say.

Saddam will feel a rope tightening around his neck any day now. He now knows that he can be taken to the gallows within the next 30 days--after an Iraqi court rejected his appeal.

Ever the quintessential sociopath, Hussein reportedly has said that his execution will be a sacrifice for his country. It is said that he has called on his countrymen to come together and fight against the United States Military.

You would expect a Washington or Lincoln to make such a statement; not a murderer like Hussein. But remember, the man is a sociopath. In his mind, he really thinks that he deserves to be recognized as a "Martyr". Ridiculous? You bet. Webster describes a martyr thusly:

" A person who willingly suffers death rather than renounce his or her religion. A person who is put to death or suffers on behalf of a cause. A person who undergoes severe or constant suffering"

Saddam Hussein "WILL NOT BE REMEMBERED AS A MARTYR". Well, maybe by other sociopaths. However, to millions of Iraqis, Hussein will be remembered as the muderer that he was. He will never have blood on his hands again. His long draconian rule has come to an end. And all of his bluster and posturing will not delay his untimate execution. His boastful comments will not turn this monster into a folk hero. The Iraqi people know what he did, and what this animal stood for.

The use of the word "Martyr" and Saddam Hussein in the same breath, insults such great men as Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and Indira Gandhi. These were true martyrs. King and Gandhi laid down their lives for a just cause. Hussein would not have laid down his life, had he not been caught by the U.S. Military, hiding in a spider hole.

Ever the con man, Hussein is attempting to convince his countrymen that he is now a martyr for the cause. Sociopaths love to dupe other people. This would be Hussein's last act on planet earth, if he can convince enough Iraqis that he died a martyr. Despite his histrionics in the court room during his three year trial, I believe that his words will ring hollow with the Iraqi people. They will cheer wildly when word comes that the "Butcher Of Baghdad" is dead.

Some pundits have predicted that there will be a spike in sectarian violence. While that may happen initially, I do not believe that Hussein's death will be cause enough for any increase in violence to continue. He is only a martyr "In His Own Mind".

Ramsey Clark, the erstwhile U.S. Attorney General, and now a defender of despots around the world, has called on President Bush to keep Hussein in the hands of the U.S., less "his client" is mistreated, if turned over to the Iraqis.

Clark is a despicable piece of sewage. Less the world forgets, he was a "Democratic Attorney General".

Liberals invariably seem to land on the wrong sides of salient issues. Clark called Hussein, calm, dignified and thoughtful". Anyone care in joining me in a round of upchucking?

Clark believes that if Hussein and his co-defendants are turned over to the Iraqis, they will be tortured and be brutalizd before being put to death.

Clark said that the President had the "highest moral and legal obligation not to surrender these people".

Where were Ramsey Clark's kind words for the President a year ago? At any rate, Clark uttered the predicted words regarding the death penalty. He said putting Hussein and his henchmen to death would be "foolhardy and provocative of violence to the extreme to go forward with it".

Clark added, the consequence of execution will be greater violence. I don't think you can rationally expect anything else".

I am not a lawyer, however, my advice to Comrade Ramsey Clark is to, "go away, go away to another country and live".

I would hate to think that I could be breathing the same air as this creature once he returns to a country that he openly disdains.

"THE FAMILY OF RONALD GOLDMAN SAY, SHOW ME THE MONEY"

@ 12:36 PM (34 months, 25 days ago)

BY: DR. FOREST LEWIS

So, O.J. Simpson thought that he had gotten away clean, once again.

However, the family of murder victim Ronald Goldman are saying, "Not So Fast" to the man most Americans believe killed Nicole Simpson and Ronald Goldman.

O.J. raised a ruckus when he announced that he had signed a lucrative book deal; and that he was slated to appear on Fox television, explaining "If I Did It".

Judith Regan was to publish the tell all book. However, following a huge public outcry, the book deal was cancelled, and Regan was fired from her publishing job. Initially, it was reported that Simpson had received some 3-million dollars in up front money. Other reports say he was written a check for $800,000.

The amount is immaterial to the Goldmans. Lawyers for the family say a lawsuit has been filed in Los Angles. The lawsuit claims Simpson was paid; and the suit is seeking to dismantle the deal: and Goldman attorneys are hoping to retrieve the money given to the former NFL star.

In their lawsuit, the Goldmans say that Simpson established a bogus company--which in turn allowed him to collect the money that he received from Ms. Regan.

Kim Goldman reportedly said, "he was given a book advance, as many authors are given when they write books. He was forewarned, I believe it was somewhere in the $800,000 range".

Goldman attorney, Jonathan Polak said that the suit points out that Simpson created a company, "for the sole purpose of spiriting money from the hands of creditors, incuding the Goldmans". Polak added:

"We believe there was a company called Lorraine Brook Associates...The company is named after the middle names of both of his (Simpson's) children"

In addition to Simpson being named in the suit, Lorraine Brook is also named as defendants.

Kim Goldman said that it was her believe that Judith Regan was involved in the shenanigans. Again, Attorney Polak:

"look, the whole purpose of this book deal, the way it was set up, was to avoid the Goldmans and other creditors from being able to get at the money that was paid to Simpson"

You have to give the Goldman's credit. They have been dogging Simpson for the past ten years. After Simpson was aquitted in the murders of Nicole Simpson and Ronald Goldman, the latter's family took Simpson into civil court, where they won. However, they have not seen one red cent from O.J.Simpson. Nonetheless, the Goldman are hanging on to Simpson like a pitbull.

Kim Goldman was asked if she felt the family would defeat Simpson a second time in the courts. She responded by saying, "honestly, at this point, my family and I take much pride in the moral victory we've been able to accomplish over the last 12 years".

The Goldmans have all but wrecked Simpson's business deals, which included signing autographs for cash.

It is Simpson's words after he signed his rich book deal that may ultimately come back and bite him in the tush.

He admitted in a radio interview that he pocketed "significant money". He boasted that he could now secure his homestead, pay bills, and put his children in a position where they would never have to worry about money.

He may have been fleet of foot on the football field, however, this time, "The Juice" may get his new found fortune squeeze out of him, courtesy of the family of Ronald Goldman.

"MR. BUSH, DO THE RIGHT THING AND PARDON THESE TRUE AMERICANS"

@ 04:33 AM (35 months, 3 hours ago)

BY: FOREST LEWIS, Ph.D.

The late great singer, Marvin Gay once noted in one of his songs, "It Makes You Wanna Holla, And Throw Up Both My Hands".

Obviously, the singer was at his wits end over what was happening in his environment. He felt helpless; and did not see any redress for his situation.

Two great Americans are facing hard time behind prison walls. I don't know what it is about this country that lately, we seem to revel in hurting our patriots: the ones who have stepped up and said, "Here Am I, You Can Send Me".

When our patriots are in trouble, they are thrown to the wolves. The message that resonates over and over again, "Thanks For Your Service, But You Are No Longer Needed". Next, group of patriots? The wolves are sharpening their teeth.

Two ex-U.S. Border Patrol Agents have receive stiff jail sentences for get this, shooting a Mexican drug smuggler. It is alleged that Ignacio Ramos and Jose Alonso Compean tried to cover up the shooting.

Ramos was handed an 11 year and one day jail sentence; while his co-defendant, Compean was told that he would be spending the next 12 years in the big house. What kind of justice is this? A cretin is shot while delivering death into our country. These two men should have been given medals, and the Mexican drug smuggler should be the one in jail. But, such is not the case. The heroes are villified; while the criminal is lionized.

Ramos and Compean will have to turn themselves into authorities on January 17th, 2007. Both men say they are innocent of the charges. Osvlado aldrete Davila was shot in the ass while trying to flee across the Rio Grande into Mexico. Minutes before the shooting, this career criminal had been confronted by the two patriots.

The agents said they shot in self defense. But, the same United States Government that these men once worked for, in essence called them liars, and had a Federal Grand Jury indict them on charges of assault with a deadly weapon, obstruction of justice, and believe it or not, "Civil Rights Violations". That one I just don't get, this drug runner is not an American citizen, but yet the crazy laws in this country say that he has "Civil Rights?" Give me a break.

In essense, Ramos and compean were convicted on the testimony of an "Illegal Alien". You just can't make this stuff up. I am proud that I served in the United States Marine Corps. However, in today's climate, with the cream puff men, and women who have supplanted the men in this country, sorry, but I would not work for this government.

President Bush can bring this craziness to a halt with the sweep of his pen. It is called "AN EXECUTIVE ORDER, GRANTING AMNESTY TO THESE TWO PATRIOTS".

Hell, Bill Clinton pardoned "Real Criminals". Where was the furor?

Mr. Bush, "Do The Right Thing, And Pardon These True American Patriots".

"BRING IN THE GUILTY BASTARD"

@ 10:41 AM (35 months, 21 hours ago)

BY: FOREST LEWIS, Ph.D.

I had a Top Sergeant once tell me this story. Old Master-Sergeant Fingers worked for this Commanding Officer who didn't cut any Marine a break.

Top Sergeant told me that the "Old Man" would utter the line, "Bring In The Guilty Bastard," whenever a Marine appeared before him on charges of malfeasance.

Eight Marines have been charged with the deaths of 24 Iraqi civilians in the town of Haditha last year. I find myself asking, why have a trial? These men are guilty as "HELL". Why, just ask that venerable "war hero," Congressman John Murtha. It was Murtha who held a news conference and all but convicted these men long before they were charged.

Murtha knew what he was doing was wrong, but yet this old windbag couldn't help himself. He had to tell the world what a creep he was. Imagine, this poor excuse for a former Marine, selling out another Marine, just to make "Brownie Points With The Socialist News Media". Murtha showed me that he has no shame. He also showed me that he has no concept of the term, "Esprit De Corps".

Young Marines learn the meaning of this term in their training either at Parris Island, or in boot camp in California. Esprit De Corps means, that a group of men share a commonality or universality in terms of mindset, relative to unity, and responsibility.

Even most common criminals live by a code, "Don't Snitch On Another Criminal". How is it that murderers and thiefs can live by such a despicable code, but a loud mouth like Murtha can't keep his "Trap Shut?" At least until these fine Marines receive a "FAIR TRIAL?"

What John Murtha has done has poisoned the well of justice. There is no way that these Marines can receive a fair trial. They can thank a "Rat Congressman" known as John Murtha.

There are some writers who do not believe in using ad hominems in describing people like Murtha. They would rather use saccharin terms, and hope that they do not offend their readers. People like this "Need To Be Liked". However, I fear they have forgotten that it is not always the erudites who read their columns. It is the common man who also click on to their website. The common man speak in colloquial terms. Not in a highbrowed style.

Faked scribes are in some ways like John Murtha: I would not trust them as far as I could throw them. Why? Because they are afraid to reveal who they really are. So, they hide behind euphemistic, glowing words.

I have to look at myself in the mirror each morning. Therefore, I must be true to myself; and to those of you who are kind enough to read my column each day. I know that John Murtha is a louse. And so do millions of Marines, active duty and retired.

So, the stage is set to convict these real "War Heroes". Four of the Marines are elisted men; and they are accused of un-premeditated murder. The other four "War Heroes" are officers who were not at Haditha at the time of the alleged murders. However, they are charged with improperly investigating and reporting the deaths.

Staff Sergeant Frank Wuterich, a 26 year old squad leader at the time, is alleged to have gunned down 12 civilians; and ordering his men to kill six more civilians as they cleared a house.

Lt. Colonel Jeffrey Chessani is the highest ranking defendant. Colonel Chessani is charged with dereliction of duty.

The Associated Press, a long time friend of the insurgents made this mind boggling assertion:

"Military officials wouldn't say what they think led to the killings. But investigators have raised the possibility that the men went on a rampage after a roadside bomb killed Lance Corporal Miguel Terrazas of El Paso, texas, and wounded two other Marines"

Please read the first line of the A-P quote again. Do you see the word "Alleged?" Nor did I. The A-P like Murtha has convicted the Marines. While these "Real War Heroes" risk their lives for the miscreants at the A-P and other so-called news outlets, these cowards show their appreciation by siding with the enemy. These people simply have "No Shame".

Terrazas father had harsh words for the "Vultures Flying Over The Marines". First, Mr. Martin Terrazas stated that the insurgents killed his son. Next, he opined, " What they are doing to our troops...it's just wrong. I feel for their families. They are in my prayers"

Amen Mr. Terrazas. The Marines are in my prayers as well.

America, you would do well to pray for these young Marines too. Remember, they didn't have to join the military. They did so for love of country. Trust me, it is not a day at a picnic being a Marine. It is the toughest thing that a man will ever do.

If you think the "Linquine Spine People" in the media will pick up a rifle to defend America, you have another thought coming. These gutless wonders would kiss Osama Bin Laden backside, if their sorry lives were on the line.

They are good at telling the world how bad our military is; and how bad America is.

For people like John Murtha and the A-P, there is a thing called "Karma".

Remember that!!!

"WELCOME TO THE MEAT GRINDER KNOWN AS IRAQ"

@ 03:32 PM (35 months, 2 days ago)

BY: FOREST LEWIS Ph.D.

Back in 1967, I was wrapping up my tour of duty in South Vietnam, when I encountered some friends who were stationed with me at the Earl Ammunition Depot near Asbury Park, New Jersey. I was on the "Rock," Okinawa, at the time of our chance meeting.

They were on their way down south, South Vietnam that is. When my battalion of Marines were shipped to Vietnam in 1966, we were ferried over by ship. My friends were flown over. See, Lydon B. Johnson wanted my friends to get into that meat grinder fast. And boy did they ever.

Prior to going to Vietnam, we were given three months of rugged training in the mountains at Camp Pendleton, California. We were up humping (walking) sheep s..t mountain every morning. That steep climb burned the hell out of the lungs of young Marines. We swore and called Johnson's mother, wife, his kids all kind of names. However, we got into the best shape of our lives.

You needed to be in shape, if you planned to survive in the jungles of Vietnam. We had to fight off leeches, scorpions, and the "Baddest" mosquitoes on the planet. The perennial elephant grass was also a son of a gun to negotiate. When you emerged from a crop of elephant grass, your arms were cut up, and bleeding profusely. Elephant grass was akin to being cut by a straight razor.

The trainning at Pendleton sure came in handy. My friends that I mentioned at the beginning of this column didn't receive the type of intense training my Marines and I were fortunate enough to have received.

I can recall hearing on Armed Forces Radio reports of entire Marine companies being virtually wiped out, by Viet Cong, and North Vietnamese Regulars.

Yeah, old LBJ felt that more troops were the ticket. The truth of the matter is, that the only thing that an increasement in troop levels did was to provide the enemy with more targets to shoot at.

Fast forward to the waning year of 2006. George W. Bush has announced that he will increase the number of troops on the ground in Iraq. It is deja vu all over again for this writer.

I can imagine that for a number of my fellow Marines who served in Vietnam during the middle 1960's and toward the end of that infamous decade, what Bush is about to do is bringing back memories for them also: bad memories.

I wrote in a piece two weeks ago, that if Bush increased the troop level in Iraq--he should un-tie the hands of the men fighting there--and let them go in and kick the insurgent's asses.

Forget what the New York Times and CNN will say. These idiots couldn't find their rear ends with both hands. And I doubt very seriously if any of the cowards working at either the Times or CNN ever served in the U.S. Military: so, nuts to what they have to say.

I will stand four square behind the President if he unleashes the finest fighting force in the world, the United States Marine Corps on Al Qaeda. He will have my support if these men are allowed to go in and raze an entire city if they have to. Bush calls this a war. Then damn it, let our men "FIGHT A REAL WAR".

In fighting a real war, there will "Always" be collateral damage. That is the cost of war, pure and simple. There has "Never" been a war that did not include civilian casualities. I am in no way "Pro-War," however, the IslamoFascists are. And if you think that our leaving Iraq with our tails tucked neatly between our legs will stop these savages from coming to a city near you, boy, are you in another dimension.

We are fighting an enemy who heretofore has enjoyed the support of the democratic party, and the socialist news media.

Now, if the President orders our men to get down and dirty with the scum killing our men and women, you will hear no complaints from me. But, if the additional troops that will be sent to Iraq will be there to continue the status quo, I will be a vocal critic of this President, until he leaves office.

Colin Powell recently stated, "we were losing the war in Iraq". Powell, the eternal optimist added that more troops would not be helpful. Powell then tried to extract his big foot from his mouth by saying, "we haven't lost". Now, let me see, we are losing the war, but we haven't lost. Sounds like Colin Powell has been attending the John Kohn-Kerry school for flip floppers.

Powell does not believe that our men can kill every insurgent in Iraq. I agree with him on that point. However, if our men are allowed to fight with both hands, we will see a huge decrease in the mayhem that is currently taking place in Iraq.

Bush has not said how many troops he would add on the ground in Iraq. In some circles, there is talk of an additional 20,000, or even more.

The President will reportedly make a decision on additional troop levels after the new Defense Secretary, Robert Gates returns from his impromtu trip to Iraq.

Bush will then have to go to congress and ask for more money to spend on the additional troops. "Cut And Run" incoming democratic majority leader, Harry Reid stated that he would support increasing the troop level in Iraq. However, Reid issued a caveat. He said he would sign off on an increase in troop level "Only" if it meant, "An Untimate Troop Withdrawal By Early 2008". In other words, "CUT AND RUN".

People like Reid and Pelosi just don't get it. Withdrawing from Iraq is admitting defeat. I just don't get people like Reid and Pelosi. They simply have no pride, not to mention "Confidence" in our military. One other thing these two dunderheads lack, is what my drill instructor used to call, indomitable spirit.

They also lack the vision for what will happen to the Iraqis if America "Cuts And Run" the way the dems would like to see us end our involvement there. Maybe, they just don't care about the millions of people who will die.

Maybe, they just don't care that Al Qaeda would have a strategic position in Iraq--not to mention a permanent base for carrying out all types of nefarious operations.

I'm praying that Mr. Bush will let our men do the job the right way this time. Otherwise, maybe it is time to "Cut And Run".

"WRONG IS RIGHT, AND RIGHT IS WRONG NOWADAYS"

@ 03:26 PM (35 months, 2 days ago)

BY: FOREST LEWIS, Ph.D.

Let me be clear, I am all for giving a person a second chance.

However, a second chance is predicated on a couple of points, (a) The person has to show remorse, (b) The person has to show that they have learned from their mistake(s), and (c) The person is willing to make amends.

Donald Trump played God on Tuesday. In essence, he told Mss. USA, Tara Conner, "To Go And Sin No More". Before Tara walked to the podium and put on an act that would be considered Oscar worthy in today's climate, Trump worked up his audience and the viewing public with his rendition for why Ms. Conner should go on being a role model for young girls.

Said "The Donald," "I have always been a believer in second chances. Tara is going to be given a second chance".

All of that sounds altruistic. However, the cynical side of me is asking, "What Is The Payoff For Donald Trump?"

Trump owns the Miss Universe Organization and Miss USA with the National Broadcasting Company.The ratings for these two beauty pageants have taken a nosedive over the years. Could it be that Trump is attempting to breathe life into Mss Universe and Mss USA with his, "I've Always Been A Believer In Second Chances?"

Trump is a very smart businessman. He would not have forgiven Tara Conner if he felt that her behavior could have caused irreparable harm to his pageants.

Ms. Conner won her title in April of this year. She picked up stakes from her home in Kentucky and moved to the big apple. She hit the ground running hard--no, not working on issues related to Miss USA. No, Tara Conner hit the nightclubs hard--and from all accounts, she was knocking down the booze pretty good.

One network report also stated that Tara used cocaine. What a great role model for young girls to look up to.

Trump said he had planned to can Conner. However, after meeting with her, he came away convinced that she was "A good person, with a good heart and not deserving the boot".

Question--what does being a good person, with a good heart and not deserving the boot have to do with this woman using drugs? By the way, alcohol is a drug.

I have worked in the field of substance abuse for more than twenty years. And I can tell you that Donald Trump by his actions is co-dependent with Conner. I will list for you below, the definition for co-dependency:

- Trying to control the behavior of the substance abuser

- Trying to protect the abuser from the harmful effects of her use

So, how is Trump co-dependent? He told Tara that she had to enter rehab. Tara jumped at the chance. Are you seeing my point of co-dependency?

The problem with what Trump has done is this. When one is co-dependent with a substance abuser, that person will "Never" understand the errors of her ways. Had Tara Conner approached Trump and said "I have a drug and alcohol problem, and I need to check into an inpatient facility," I would have said this young lady has a chance at beating her demons.

However, she is doing what Donald Trump wants her to do, and not what Tara Conner wants to do.That is the problem with being co-dependent. You think that you can "Control" the behavior of the abuser.

This 21-year old woman has a severe alcohol problem. You don't just enter an inpatient facility, just because you had a night on the town. To enter inpatient, you have to have a diagnosis of Alcohol Dependence. Ladies and Gentlemen, that is serious stuff.

Tara didn't become an alcoholic once she won the Miss USA crown. She has been drinking for a long time. However, she finally got caught.

The best thing that Trump could have done was "To Fire Tara Conner". Next, he could have let her know that he was there for her. However, the ultimate call of inpatient was her's and her's alone, "NOT THE DONALD'S".

In dealing with alcoholics, if "Tough Love" isn't administered, the alcoholic will continue to pick up and use. But, if your message is, "I love you, but I will not enable or be co-dependent with you, the alcoholic will have some serious thinking to do". We can not stop that person from drinking or smoking crack. There is this little thing called, "Free Will".

Tara Conner needs help, but not the type of help that Donald Trump gave her on Tuesday.

I'm afraid that Trump made a bad situation worse.

"ANOTHER COLORADO MAN OF THE CLOTH IS EXPOSED AS A HOMOSEXUAL"

@ 08:12 AM (35 months, 3 days ago)

BY: DR. FOREST LEWIS

It would appear that the domino theory is at work involving the conservative clergy.

First, it was pastor Ted Haggard who was outed by a man that he had paid to have gay sex with. Initially, Haggard vehemetly denied the man's allegations. However, in a short time, the pastor came cleaned, and "Fessed Up". He had indeed paid his muscular companion money for a quick romp in the hay.

Haggard's sexual partner had recorded a conversation that he had had with the once powerful conservative preacher. The tape reveals Haggard asking the man to purchase methamphetamines, so the two of them could smoke the drug--and later have gay sex.

The Haggard outing came days before the mid-term election; and his gay partner admitted that he wanted to hurt Haggard because of his stand against gay marriage. The Hit And Run Media ran the story over and over: to make sure that the public's minds were saturated with the prurient details of Haggard's dark side.

Now, comes word of another Colorado man of the cloth who has been "Outed". The Reverend Paul Barnes admits to having gay sex not with one man, but with a number of male prostitutes.

Barnes has since resigned as pastor of the Grace Chapel in Denver. Barnes' resignation comes one month to the day since Haggard, the former head of the National Association of Evangelicals and a one time charismatic Colorado Springs pastor, was terminated after a Denver gay prostitute charged Haggard with having sex with him; and also supplying the man with money to buy mind altering drugs.

Denver Seminary president, Craig Williford noted that the Haggard revelation will have a domino affect. He said Haggard's admission will bring to the fore, perverse revelations from other pastors who are hiding from present and past homosexual activities.

And Williford went on to declare:

"When one person gets caught or confesses, it's almost like others get a new courage to face this dark side of their private lives. Not only that, but the person who is complicit with the pastor will come forward. We may not be done"

Paul Barnes was not move by his conscious to reveal his activities behind closed doors. Reports say that he was warned, "either come out of the closet voluntarily, or be forced out by someone who knew of his dark secret".

From a psychological perspective, one has to ask why would Paul Barnes or Ted Haggard accept such powerful church positions, knowing that they are gay?

I believe that these men truly believed that they were "Washed Whiter Than Snow" after they were saved and baptized. They belived the scriptures that say when you turn your life over to Jesus Christ, "God will throw your sins to the bottom of the sea".

Let's be clear that "All have sin, and fallen short of the glory of God". The sin of a homosexual is no greater than the sin of someone stealing something that does not belong to him.

What gay pastors have failed to do after they are saved is this. They have not worked through their issues with a qualified psychologist. I mean after all, if you have a tooth ache, do you really think that God will repair the tooth? Let's not be ridiculous. Not to mention, "Test God". The same thing applies to your psychological issues.

God has placed medical doctors on this planet for a reason. He has placed doctors of dental surgery on this planet for a reason. And the Good Lord has placed clinical psychologists on our planet for a good reason: to help you dig deep into your soul, and ferret out problematic issues--and work through these issues.

Simply leaving your psychological issues at the altar of your church is foolhardy at best. In the case of homosexuals, it is just a matter of time before your loins began to cry out for someone of the same gender.

When that happens, you are weaving a terrible web, that in time, will evenutally unravel on you.

If you are a conservative pastor, hiding your homosexuality, the Hit And Run Media will crucify you. Why? These people are carnal: and they love catching a christian engaging in an activity, such as homosexuality.

The media can then say, "I told You So". "Conservative christians are nothing but a bunch of hypocrites". Parenthetically, the media will not show you the millions of christian people who have lead a pristine lifestyle for decades, serving Jesus Christ.

No, they are just looking for that one bad apple.

If you are a gay pastor--and you have not been caught yet, "Come From Out Of The Closet," and seek professional help. Otherwise, it is a matter of time before the covers are removed from your lifestyle, and what you have been doing in the dark, "WILL BE SHOUTED FROM THE ROOFTOPS".

You are not only hurting yourself; and your family. You are also hurting the party that is squarely in the corner of true believers.

"AMERICA, YOU ARE DISGUSTINGLY FAT"

@ 07:15 AM (35 months, 5 days ago)

BY: FOREST LEWIS, PH.D.

FRIENDS OF "THE TRUTH"

I decided to write on the subject of obesity in America, after witnesssing a full shot of ABC anchorman, Charles Gibson. Gibson has a beer belly that would have made Archie Bunker proud.

Observing Gibson from the neck up, one would never guess that the man's stomach is terribly distended. He reminds me of the alcoholics that I have worked with over the years. Although their stomachs are bloated beyond measure, the rest of their bodies are frail looking.

I am in no way saying that Mr. Gibson is an alcoholic. To make such an assertion, I would have to do a comprehensive substance abuse evaluation. I am simply saying that Gibson's physique is frightening to look at. He is opening his body up to a number of opportunistic diseases. Most notably a heart attack or a stroke.

Al Roker of the "Today Show" also prodded me in a sense to do this story. Roker lost a number of pounds after undergoing what many of us believed to be "Gastric Bypass Surgery", a few years back. I will discuss this procedure in greater detail later in this write-up.

A few years ago, Roker was a shell of his former self. He lost a lot of weight. However, today the weight appears to have returned. How is that possible you ask? The reader needs to understand that candidates who undergo gastric bypass surgery--are not immuned from ever gaining weight again. Americans are very inventive. I've had patients who figured out how to "Beat" the gastric bypass "System". For the sake of people lives, I will not explain what my patients have told me.

Adults in this country--and now children--are faced with being labeled morbidly obese. We are in the throes a major epidemic. This epidemic will come into sharper focus as the children of today, become the adults of tomorrow.

In addition to the opportunistic diseases of heart attacks and strokes, obese Americans also face cancer, and a surge in diabetes. James O. Hill, Ph.D., the director for the Center of Human Nutrition at the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center says, at the rate that we are going, "obesity-related diabetes alone, will break the bank of our healthcare system".

How did we reach this point in America? Some say, (a) Eating (GENETICS) too much, and (b) A lack of exercise. I would like to join this debate and propose a third component, "Depression". Persons facing depression can either noticed a spike in their eating, or a decrease. It has been my experience that most people who are suffering from a Major Drepressive Episode, use food as their antidepressant. As a result, clinically depressed people face significant weight gains during an episode of a clinical depression.

I have had patients tell me that they have fixed dinner for their families. After consuming what is on their plates, the depressed patient looked at at loved ones dish, and beseeched that person to leave a portion on their plates for them.

I have also had patients report that they have awakened at two or three in the morning, and "Make Another Dinner" for themselves.

Many of these patients are victims of hypertension and diabetes. They are also on welfare; and have a medicaid card. This is part of the drain on our healthcare system that Dr. Hill was alluding too.

Before a person undergoes gastric bypass surgery, there are a number of things that she/he must do. First, the patient's doctor must say that the person is a candidate for this procedure. After that, the person has to meet with a Clinical Psychologist, and is evaluated.

I will do a comprehensive evaluation. Sometimes, I will also include performing psychological testing. This includes I.Q. testing, Rorschach projective testing, MMPI, or PAI, etc.

If I conclude that the person's weight gain is a result of psychological issues, I will not hesistate to recommend therapy as a way to assuage that person's problem(s).

To perform gastric bypass surgery on someone whose issues are psychological in nature, would be contraindicated. In other words, the procedure should not be done.

Surgeons performing gastric bypass surgery create a tiny pouch in the person's stomach with staples or a plastic band. This procedure restricts the amount of food that the person can ingest. During the surgical procedure, doctors attach a small portion of the small intestines to the pouch to allow the the food to bypass the rest of the stomach, and the upper portion of the small intestines in order to reduce calories and nutrient absorption.

Gastric bypass surgery is not a magic bullet. I say this because if you have not dealt with your psychological baggage, you are simply setting yourself up for failure.

Yes, America, you are disgustingly fat. However, there is hope. Start by not blaming others for your obesity. "Own Your Own Stuff".

Next, sit down and discuss with your physician, the options that are available to you.

If you do not have an understanding doctor, fire him.

After all, it is your life that is at stake.

"ANOTHER CLINTON JUDGE BEFRIENDS CONVICTED KILLERS"

@ 04:41 AM (35 months, 5 days ago)

BY: DR. FOREST LEWIS

FRIENDS OF "THE TRUTH"

His name is Jeremy D. Fogel: and he is a Federal Judge in the U.S. District Court's Northern District of California.

Fogel is a Bill Clinton liberal jurist--appointed to the Federal bench by William Jefferson Clinton on September 8th, 1997. Fogel was confirmed by the U.S. Senate on March 16th, 1998.

Fogel's liberal views regarding capital punishment in California, recently dealt victims of death row inmates seeking redress, a severe setback. Fogel ruled that California "violates a constitutional ban on cruel and uusual punishment".

He had nothing to say about the "Cruel And Usual Punishment Meted Out To The Victims of crazed killers. No, this liberal Judge is protecting "The Rights" of the vicious murderers sitting on California's death row.

Although Fogel said California's "implementation of lethal injection is broken, he said it can be fixed" He has demanded that California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger sit down and strategize with prison officials--and come up with an acceptable execution procedure.

The Fogel recommendation sounds good--however--who is to say that when Schwarzenegger and company come up with a new plan, this liberal judge rejects it?

Presently, death row prisoners are given a three-drug cocktail. The cocktail is administered to the prisoners by prison officials. Fogel is concerned that the three-drug cocktail creates an unnecessary risk, thus leaving the prisoner open for, "extreme pain that it offends the Eighth Amendment".

Fogel placed the state of California under a capital punishment moratorium last February. He is responsible for stopping the execution of one, Michael Morales, a convicted rapist and murderer. Fogel was persuaded by anti-capital punishment opponents that inmates were "Suffering Excruciating Deaths". That was all this "Clinton Softie" had to hear. Again, what about the pain the victims had to endure?

Just for the record, Michael Morales was convicted of raping, beating and stabbing 17-year old Terri Winchell of Lodi, California to death. That was a "Quarter Of A Century Ago". Ms. Winchell never had a chance at life, yet vermin like Morales are allowed to not only stay alive by the appeals process, but by "Linguine Spine Judges" like Jeremy Fogel.

There is a nationwide fervor against lethal injections by the anti-death penalty crowd. Currently, there are 37-states that use the lethal injection method. Recently, Florida Governor, Jeb Bush ordered the stay of all excutions. And Missouri's injection method, which is similar to California's was declared unconstitutional by a Federal Judge last month.

Deborah Denno is reportedly a lethal injection expert. Ms. Denno stated that the recent rulings against lethal injections will delay excutions "in the short term". She quickly added that the rulings will likely give "lethal injections a black eye. but not necessarily end its use".

Naturally, civil rights groups are giddy about the decisions. Said Jamie Fellner, a Human Rights Watch Director, "Every day the evidence mounts that the United States is using unacceptably cruel methods to put people to death".

My question to the Jamie Fellner's of the world is simple. Why aren't you discussing with the same passion the murders committed by the killers that your heart is bleeding for?

The type of world that people like Fellner and Fogel wish to create would be tatamount to the sheep and wolves scenario.

There will always be wolves among us, waiting to devour everything that is in its path.

The only way to stop mad killers is not through psychotherapy. A society stops psychopaths by removing them from the planet. That way we can all be assured that people like Michael Morales will "Never" take an innocent life again.

Whether capital punishment is a deterrent to killing another person is immaterial as far as I am concerned. Capital punishment tell people determine to take an innocent life, that your life will be forfeited if you declare yourself "GOD". It is as simple as that.

"DEMS SHOW A LACK OF DEFERENCE TO THEIR COUNTRY"

@ 05:49 AM (35 months, 7 days ago)

BY: FOREST LEWIS, PH.D.

FRIENDS OF "THE TRUTH"

Democrats are not only arrogant, they are a brazen bunch of out of control mal-contents.

Senators John Kohn-Kerry, and Bill Nelson of Florida have taken it upon themselves to be self-appointed ambassadors for the United States.

Nelson met with Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad in Damascus on Friday. No one from the Bush administration asked this arrogant politician to meet with the killer of Syria--and "Beg" him to do more to help stabalize Iraq. Nelson's action is a direct affront to not only the President, but to the American people as well.

We have a United States senator on his knees "Kissing Assad's Ring". Folks, that is disgusting. Before meeting with Assad, Nelson was told by the State Department that it was not in favor of "Ambassador Nelson" meeting with Assad. For his part, Nelson told the State Department to "Go Play On The Nearest Highway With Razor Blades".

Meantime, Senator John Kohn-Kerry reports he's on a "fact finding tour", which will take him to, Egypt, Syria, Iraq, and oh yeah, Iran also. Kohn-Kerry has been told that the State Department does not sanction his visit to Iran. But, this narcissist listens to only one person, "John Kohn-Kerry". And to think that this moron has visions of being this nation's next President. The man has no morals at all. I also question if he has any pride in what this country stands for.

Reports say John Kohn-Kerry all but "shined the boots" of the Egyptian President, Hosni Mubarak. Imagine, Kohn-Kerry praising Mubarak, who is far from being in the vanguard of democracy. Imagine, Kohn-Kerry a Jew, but runs from his ethnicity:attempting to pass himself off as being "Irish". Imagine, John Kohn-Kerry supporting the murdering thugs of Iran, and Syria: two countries that are not only haters of America, but Kohn-Kerry's "Motherland, Israel" as well. This man truly makes me want to "Throw Up".

The rotund Governor of New Mexico, Bill Richardson met with two delegates from North Korea in his home state. Richardson is another egocentric maverick. Did I mention that he too would like to be President?

The democrats would never stoop to such a shameless level if the President's approval numbers were not in the commode, the way they currently are. What they are doing is simply despicable. It sends a message to America's enemies that says, "No One Is In Charge Of Foreign Policy".

There is a remedy in dealing with these hotdogs. It is called "THE LOGAN ACT". All the President has to do is summon up enough guts to use this act. The question is, will he?

The Logan Act is a "Federal Law" that says private citizens "can not" negotiate with foreign governments. It was passed in 1799 during the Presidency of John Adams. At the time, the U.S. was embroiled in tensions with, you guessed it, "France". The Logan Act gets its name from Dr. George Logan, who took it upon himself to enter into quasi-negotiations with France.

For the brazen democrats who are freelancing and negotiating with America's enemies, this is what the Logan Act says:

"ANY CITIZEN OF THE UNITED STATES, WHERE-EVER HE MAY BE, WHO WITHOUT AUTHORITY OF THE UNITED STATES, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY COMMENCES OR CARRIES ON ANY CORRESPONDENCE OR INTERCOURSE WITH ANY FOREIGN GOVERNMENT OR ANY OFFICER OR AGENT THEREOF, WITH INTENT TO INFLUENCE THE MEASURES OR CONDUCT OF ANY FOREIGN GOVERNMENT OR ANY OFFICER OR AGENT THEREOF, IN RELATION TO ANY DISPUTES OR CONTROVERSIES WITH THE UNITED STATES, OR TO DEFEAT THE MEASURES OF THE UNITED STATES, SHALL BE FINED UNDER THIS TITLE OR IMPRISONED NOT MORE THAN THREE YEARS, OR BOTH. THIS SECTION SHALL NOT ABRIDGE THE RIGHT OF A CITIZEN TO APPLY HIMSELF, OR HIS AGENT, TO ANY FOREIGN GOVERNMENT, OR THE AGENTS THEREOF, FOR REDRESS OF ANY INJURY WHICH HE MAY HAVE SUSTAINED FROM SUCH GOVERNMENT OR ANY OF ITS AGENTS OR SUBJECTS"

Even idiots like Kohn-Kerry, Bill Nelson, and Bill Richardson should be able to understand the Logan Act.

I have been waiting with bated breath for the President to do the right thing, and that is drop the hammer on some of these loose cannons. We have people in the press printing top secret material, and Bush does nothing. Now, we have the three stooges sitting down and discussing foreign policy with sworn enemies of America.

It is time for George Bush to grow some testes; and stop putting up with this nonsese. I know that he wants to be liked; but the people that he is trying to lure into his corner, "HATE THIS MAN". George, they will never like you, "Never". For God's sake, please get that through your head.

If the President does not take strong action against Kohn-Kerry, Nelson and Richardson, he will continue to be viewed as a "Joke," by not only democrats, but republicans and conservatives as well. The entire world is now watching Mr. President. What will you do with these disrespectful microbes?

The ball is in your court.

A suggestion, have the FBI waiting at the airport when these two traitors de-plane. Place them under arrest for being in violation of the "Logan Act".

That is what a "Real President Would Do". Trust me, true Americans would applaud you, Mr. President.

"IS THE FUNDING FOR THE WAR IN IRAQ IN JEOPARDY?"

@ 06:44 AM (35 months, 8 days ago)

BY: DR. FOREST LEWIS

FRIENDS OF "THE TRUTH"

One thing democrats are noted for is their ability to spend money, lots of it.

But, now that democrats are in control of the congress, will they continue to support the war in Iraq, financially? According to a piece done by the democrats favorite newspaper, the New York Times, democrats plan to be more assertive in how monies are spent on the war in Iraq.

Currently, billions are spent each month on the war. Whether all of this will change come January, when the democrats take over both chambers of the House, remains to be seen. This much is known, the chairmen of the House and Senate Budget Committees reportedly have said they will "Demand A Better Accounting Of The War's Cost And Move Toward Integrating Spending Into The regular Federal Budget".

This is seen as the firing of the first salvo in the "war" between the President and the incoming majority democrats over how the war is financeD in Iraq. Democrats feel that the President has been hiding the "true cost of the war," by his piecemeal approach to financing the war efforts.

According to Senator Kent Conrad of North Dakota, the Bush administration has been "playing hide-the ball, and that does not serve the Congress well, nor the counry well, and we are not going to continue that practice".

Conrad and congressman John M. Spratt, will have a chance to "Put Their Money Where Their Mouths Are At," rather soon. The President will be asking congress for $120 billion dollars to pay for the war well into September, 2007. Here is where the "Rubber Will Meet The Road". Will the democrats balk at the President's request, and get caught up into looking like the obstructionists they have been? Or, will they just stop the posturing, and give Mr. Bush the requested money? I say the democrats will give the President the money. Grudgingly so, but the dems will folk over the money.

Otherwise, they will look like they are anti-military: which they really are. However, they don't want the public to wise up, and figure this out for themselves. After all, the democrats are playing for all of the marbles, and that is the control of both chambers of Congress, and the Presidency in "08". So, these hypocrites have got to continue their transparent farce of being "Pro-Military".

I think that what Conrad and Spratt are doing is nothing short of, "Saber Rattling". Although, the democrats have been known to engage in self defeatist politics. They just can't help themselves. We have all witnessed where the Democrats have said or done something stupid to foil their chances of being taken seriously by the electorate.

Saber Rattling or not, the democrats will be pushed by their buddies at the New York Times and MoveOn. org to do something that could impact the war's efforts, in a negative way. It wouldn't surprise me if the lunatics at the Times and MoveOn. org do not push the democrats into trying to curtail funding for the war in Iraq. Stranger things have happened with these socialists. Pelosi and company are attemting to portray this "United Front". When in essence, the democrats have too many "Wackos" to serve.

George Soros is no friend of the Iraq War. And he is certainly no friend of George W. Bush. You can bet that this odious man will be pushing the new democratic leadership to do something, anything that would move our troops closer to coming home. Soros is a solid gold phoney. He too, is no friend of our military. However, he is a friend to the insurgents, and any other anti-American socialist/communist group.

The democrats biggest weapon is their control of the purse strings for the war in Iraq. They now possess the power to not only demand more answers from the White House, they can influence administration policy on Iraq.

While the Pelosi lead majority has stated repeatedly that they will not cut funding for the war, there are some senior democratic officials who are reportedly mulling over whether to tack on conditions to spending bills to force the President to meet benchmarks for progress or change in Iraq.

It's like I said, Ms. Pelosi will have to answer to a number of leftist socialists within her own party. Like the old saying goes, "You Can Please Some Of The People Some Of The Time, But Not All Of The Time".

The demcrats are a group of sad sacks that are never happy, even when they are in power.

It is a matter of time before they do something real stupid, and people will be left asking, "WHAT WAS I THINKING, WHEN I PULLED THE LEVER FOR THOSE, @@#@$#$#@$".

"DELAY CHARGES LIBERAL COALITION WILL SWEEP HILLARY INTO THE WHITE HOUSE IN 2008"

@ 02:49 PM (35 months, 9 days ago)

BY: FOREST LEWIS, PH.D.

FRIENDS OF "THE TRUTH"

Tom Delay, the former House majority Leader shocked a number of republicans and neoconservatives this week.

Delay stated unequivocally that Hillary Rodham Clinton would be this country's next president. Delay said that Mrs. Clinton would be propelled into the White House by a coalition consisting of the Media Fund, MoveOn.org, and Americans Coming Together.

Delay said the aforementioned groups would work in concert with the "Hit And Run Media" to assure a Clinton victory. Said Delay, "Hillary wil be the next president of the United States because they have built a coalition".

Delay noted that Mrs. Clinton has some sage advisors in her corner. People like, Harold Ickes, Sidney Blumenthal, James Carville, Paul Begala and Joe Lockhard. They are the "Masterminds" behind the left-wing coalition, stated Delay.

Delay said such groups as MoveOn.org played a major role in the GOP loss of the House and Senate in November. Delay added, "I have never seen a more powerful coalition".

Although Delay paints a bleak picture for republicans and conservatives; he asserted that he has a plan to counter the Begala's and Carville's of the political world, known as Washington, D.C. Delay says he plans to reach out to conservative groups and hopefully create a rival coalition.

Delay blames the GOP for its recent defeat. According to the once powerful Texas politician, Delay says he once devised a similar strategy now used by socialist liberals. Delay says the GOP left their once powerful coalition in tatters.

Delay has started his own website, called the "Grassroots Action and Information Network". He is hoping that his website will fuel a new republican revolution.

In the meantime, Delay has called on republicans and conservatives to dig into the record of Barack Obama. Delay said Obama's record was on par with a "Marxist leftist". Delay said Obama is like defeated democratic U.S. Senate candidate, Harold Ford. Obama said Delay, is trying to hide his liberal views.

Delay makes a good point regarding Obama. One is hard pressed to pin Barack Hussein Obama down on the issues. He is good at saying, "It is time to move forward," whenever his record is broached. Some of the other rhetoric used by Obama, "It is time to discard ideology, to reach a new common ground built on an understanding of broad-based values" All of that sounds good, but you and I both know that it is a "Crock".

Obama's voting record in the Senate makes Ted Kennedy look like a conservative. In fact, Obama's voting record is "MORE LIBERAL THAN KENNEDY'S". Remember when Chief Justice John Roberts sought confirmation to the Supreme Court? Well, half of the democrats in the Senate voted for the Chief Justice. Even liberals like Patrick Leahy and Russ Feingold voted for Roberts. But, not Obama. No one seems to know why. Maybe it is because Bush nominated the Chief Justice.

Obama does not like George Bush. In his book, "The Audacity Of Hope," Obama noted in one of his meetings with the President, "The president's eyes became fixed; his voice took on the agitated, rapid tone of someone neither accustomed to nor welcoming interruption; his easy affability was replaced by an almost messianic certainty".

It is clear that Obama is trying to paint the president into some type of religious "Nut". Someone who took this country to war, "AFTER CONSULTING WITH GOD". Yes, it is quite clear that Obama is not a fan of Mr. Bush.

He was not a fan of Ronald Reagan's either. He writes in his latest book that he was disturbed by Reagan's election in 1980. He also took a shot at the "Duke," John Wayne. Said Obama, 'I was unconvinced by his Father Knows Best pose, his policy by anecdote and his gratuitous assaults on the poor".

Obama loves the "Peanut Farmer," aka, Jimmy Carter. Obama is impressed by Carter's emphasis on human rights.

However, he is taciturn regarding Carter being the worst president in modern times. Or Carter's Kow-towing to the Iranians, after the Iranians captured and held American citizens for one year. The Americans were not released until that "guy" Obama dislikes, Ronald Reagan, took office.

The "Hit And Run Media" loves Obama. They aren't about to dig into his past. Couple that with "White-Guilt" and Barack Hussein Obama gets a free ride, perhaps all the way to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

Not bad for a guy who got his rump kicked in a congressional race in 2000.

The old adage, "All That Shines Is Not Gold," is applicable in the case of Barack Hussein Obama. This fellow is very ambitious. But, his record stinks to high heaven.

Anyone who is more liberal than Ted Kennedy, deserves to be watched "Very Carefully".

Tom Delay feels that Hillary Clinton will be the one changing the drapes in the White House in 2008. I wouldn't bet the farm on that Tom.

"ATTENTION, IF YOU LOVE AMERICA, PLEASE LEARN OUR LANGUAGE"

@ 02:49 PM (35 months, 9 days ago)

BY: FOREST LEWIS, PH.D.

FRIENDS OF "THE TRUTH"

Are you like me, after purchasing an item, you look for the instructions on how to operate the darn thing, but, you encounter a language problem. That language problem is "Spanish".

It seems that everything that we "As Americans" buy today, is in Spanish. The last time that I checked, this was still the United States of America, not Spain, Puerto Rico, Panama, etc. Yet, we are being forced to assimilate within the Hispanic culture, not the other way around. This galls the hell out of me.

I speak Castilian Spanish. This is like speaking the "King's English". Nonetheless, I have been finding myself asking, if we as Americans went to Spain, would that European country make life easier for us by placing everything from television viewing to items that we purchase, in english? I rather doubt it. So, why are business leaders in this country selling out America?

I know, it has to do with filthy lucre. However, when the Italian and Polish people came to America, they had to learn english. There were no special priviledges accorded to them. The same thing happened to every other ethnic group, save, Hispanics.

These people will never assimilate into "AMERICA'S MELTING POT," as long as Hispanics make life similar to their native countries. Each morning, I watch "Despierta America". Loosely translated, Despierta America means, "Wake Up America". It's like the english version of, "Good Morning America, aired on ABC. The four hosts of Despierta America are "American Citizens ". They appear to be nice people. However, their english is "Atrocious". I have watched this show for years. Yet, the hosts ability to speak english has not improved one iota.

Why should they learn how to speak english when everything is given to them on a silver platter. Stores accomodate them. And cable and DirectTV are there at their beck and call: providing them with information in their native tongue.

These folks remind me of many inner city blacks who bastardize American English. If and when they are in a group of intellects, who happen to speak flawless english, they will be embarassed, to say the least. Enough said for the proponents of "Ebonics and SpanEnglish".

In my opinion, Hispanics who refuse to learn english have "Zero Investment In America". They are only here for a better way of life. It is as simple as that.

British Prime Minister Tony Blair, no stranger to controversy, recently said that it was the duty of all immigrants to assimilate into British society. No sooner had the words came out of Blair's mouth, when he was charged with not being "Tolerant".

Prime Minister Blair is faced with the same kind of argument proffered by the left in this country, from gay rights to the debate on immigration. However, the Brits have someone who is speaking out on controversial issues, unlike our leader in the White House. George Bush is silent on issues of immigration, gay rights, abortion, and so forth. While it is good that he focus on Iraq, the man is viewed as being obsessed with that Middle Eastern country.

Tony Blair has not only called on immigrants to assimilate within British society, he also announced that funds going to faith based groups would be more carefully monitored in the future. If a faith based group is not promoting "Understanding," the Prime Minister said that group would be cut off, as far as funding goes.

Blair hit the nail on the head when he declared:

"When it comes to our essential values--belief in democracy, the rule of law, tolerance, equal treatment for all, respect for this country and its shared heritage-then that is what we come together, it is what we hold in common".

The Prime Minister appears to be saying, "You Can Not Have A Country Within A Country". This is what many ethnic groups want to create. Small enclaves within the United States. One can not say that he or she is an "American," and at the same time refuse to join the larger society.

I recently visited my baby sister in Brooklyn, New York. It was disheartening to see in one section of her Coney Island neighborhood, Arab signs, and a few blocks over, Russian signs. Having pride in one's ethnicity is one thing, but wearing your ethnicity on your sleeve is another. Whatever happened to your allegiance to the United States of America?

I doubt very seriously if many recent immigrants fully understand how this country was forged together. The blood, the sweat, the tears that those who came before us had to spill. Not to mention the thousands of lives that were lost due to diseases, wars, etc. Those dear people paid a heavy price for all of us to enjoy the liberties that we have today. Yet, there are millions of people who don't appreciate the price that was paid.

To be an American is special. An American is grateful that he/she was born in the land of the free. An American is grateful that he/she was allowed to immigrate here, and become a naturalized citizen.

I do not believe that one can fully appreciate being an American until he/she is of a third or fourth generation of Americans. By then, the roots of being an American have been nurtured and carefully groomed.

To the people who are in love with their ethnicity, and not the country that has opened her doors to you, thus giving you and your families a better life, at least show us a little respect by learning to speak our language, which is "American English".

"A GATHERING OF SICK MINDS"

@ 03:10 PM (35 months, 10 days ago)

BY: FOREST LEWIS, PH.D.

FRIENDS OF "THE TRUTH"

The clowns are continuing the run the circus in Iran.

But, these are not your typical funny clowns. They are dangerous men, lead by Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. By now, you have probably heard of the two day conference being held in Iran regarding the Holocaust.

Ahmadinejad has made it up in his sick mind that 6-million jews did not die at the hands of another sicko, Adolph Hitler. Ahmadinejad has called for the destruction of Israel. And, Holocaust deniers have arrived from around the world to attend the conference being held in Tehran, Iran.

In the meantime, the international community has condemned the government-sanctioned deniers conference. British Prime Minister, Tony Blair said of the conference, "It was shocking beyond belief". He called the meeting, "A symbol of sectarianism and hatred".

For its part, the United States had this to say. Spokeswoman Dana Perino:

"The gathering of Holocaust deniers in Tehran is an affront to the entire civilized world, as well as to the traditional Iranian values of tolerance and mutual respect. The United States will continue to support those in Iran and elsewhere who seek to promote human rights and dignity, and will stand with them in their efforts to overcome oppression, injustice and tyranny"

What more could the White House say? There is tacit support in Ms. Perino's statement, for "Good Iranians" to rise up against Ahmadinejad. But, don't expect that to happen any time soon. Ahmadinejad and the Mullahs control the military. And anyone with common sense understands, that those who control the armaments of a country, control the people.

Keep in mind that the so-called "Iraq Study Group's" has recommended that President Bush sit down and talk with Ahmadinejad. How in God's dear name can you reason with a crazy man? Yet, these geniuses have put forth this ridiculous recommendation. It kind of makes you wonder if this "Study Group" suffered from sleep deprivation during their "Long Studies".

There are some who say that Ahmadinejad is a Holocaust denier because it helps to bolster his image at home, and abroad. What country other than Syria, or North Korea and maybe Venezuela, would be caught dead standing with Herr Von Ahmadinejad?

No, I believe that Herr Von Adhadinejad is motivated by his extreme hatred for Israel. He understands the Holocaust is Israel's achilles heel. So, the little creep rubs salt into the wound of Israel, so to speak.

I believe that if given the chance, Admadinejad would attempt to "Wipe Israel Off The Map". However, that crazy thinking is predicated on Israel "Doing Nothing".

The Israeli Primie Minister told the world what we already suspected today. He declared in an interview:

"Iran openly, explicity and publicly threatens to wipe Israel off the map. Can you say that this is the same level, when you are aspiring to have nuclear weapons, as America, France Israel, Russia?"

You read correctly. Ehud Olmert added Israel to the community of those in possession of nuclear weapons. He later denied saying that Israel was a nuclear state. However, it was too late, the genie was out of the bottle.

The new Defense Secretary, Robert Gates noted in testimony before a Senate committee last week, that Israel was a nuclear power.

The reaction that came after Olmert "Outed Israel" was surprising to this writer. Olmert's political rivals jumped on his comments, and "CALLED FOR HIS RESIGNATION".

Opposition lawmaker, Yossi Beilin, the head of the Dovish Meretz Party called Olmert's remarks, "Careless". Beilin also pointed to what he called Olmert's failures during the recent conflict with Hezbollah. Said Beilin, "It might be an indication that he isn't fit to serve as Prime Minister".

Whether he was taken out of context or not, the Olmert revelation has placed Iran on notice.

The Israelis have a saying, "NEVER, AGAIN". Herr Von Ahmadinejad should take note. His country is in the crosshairs of the Israelis.

Let's see if this "Hitler Wannabe" tones down his rhetoric in the wake of the comment by the Israeli Prime Minister. Time will most certainly tell.

Herr Von Ahmadinejad should be warned that sometimes, "THE HUNTER BECOMES THE HUNTED".

"DO NOT LET PATAKI DO TO AMERICA WHAT HE DID TO NEW YORK STATE"

@ 02:21 PM (35 months, 11 days ago)

BY: DR. FOREST LEWIS

FRIENDS OF "THE TRUTH"

Some people have a lot of nerve.

One of those individuals is the out-going Governor of New York State, George Pataki. This guy is testing the political waters to see if he can be a viable candidate for the GOP nomination for president. He can not be kidding. What, with his pitiful record in New York State.

Pataki was swept into office in 1994, after defeating ultra-liberal, Mario Cuomo, with the help of a number of sportsmen. New Yorkers were ready for anyone, except Cuomo. Pataki paid sportsmen back by enacting some of the most stringent gun laws in the nation.

One of the gems he cooked up involved having gun manufacturers wishing to do business in the Empire State, send along with their new pistol, a spent cartridge.

In theory, the cartridge was to be taken to a state police burea by the FFL (FEDERAL FIREARMS LICENSEE) dealer. There, it would be recorded and placed on file. Pataki's thinking was that a spent cartridge could identify the "shooter" if he/she was involved in a crime.

Remember, the gun started out in the hands of a "legal owner". So, if the gun was used in a crime, chances are it was stolen. So, good luck in finding the criminal. To date, the Pataki "Brainstorm," has not netted "ONE CRIMINAL".

However, the law has been a royal pain in the butt for FFL dealers. They spend a lot of time on the road, taking spent cartridges to the state police. Some gun manufacturers have refused to do business in New York State. As a result, people have lost jobs. Not a problem for George Pataki.

Pataki's website describes his much touted anti-gun bill this way:

LAST YEAR, (2000) GOVERNOR PATAKI AND THE LEGISLATURE PASSED THE MOST SWEEPING SET OF ANTI-GUN VIOLENCE LAWS IN AMERICA--COMMON SENSE LAWS THAT PROTECT THE RIGHTS OF HONEST GUN OWNERS WHILE KEEPING GUNS OUT OF THE HANDS OF CHILDREN AND CRIMINALS"

Some lawyers admits that they have incurred an excedrin headache, while trying to decipher the Pataki anti-gun legislation. Somewhere in this convoluted legislative conundrum, you can bet that some of your 2nd amendment rights have been abridged by this backstabbing leftist.

This liberal and R.I.N.O, also enacted the cell phone bill. It is illegal to use a cell phone in New York State, if it is not hands free. Right. If you are ever in this state, please take note of just how many people obey this ridiculous law. Heck, drivers will pass up police vehicles--and all the time they are chatting on the phone. Cops realize that this law is unenforceable--so they look the other way.

Pataki's liberal policies are typical. Liberals love to "Make Us Safe". Liberals "Love To Think For Us". See, we lack the ability to perform this intrinsic gift--without the help of our neighborhood liberal.

Pataki promised New Yorkers that he would "Get Rid Of Big Government". Did he keep his promise? Not a chance. He ended up a tax and spend liberal like his predecessor, Mario Cuomo.

At least we knew who Cuomo was. He did not hide his political stripes.

Remember America, "DO NOT LET PATAKI DO TO YOU WHAT HE DID FOR US IN NEW YORK STATE". You will be better for it.

Send this guy packing to D.C., where he can become a high priced lobbyist. I know that he will be a success--because he has years of experience in backstabbing the good people of New York. State

"HILLARY WHO?"

@ 01:19 PM (35 months, 11 days ago)

BY: FOREST LEWIS, PH.D.

FRIENDS OF "THE TRUTH"

The "Rock Star" is rocking them in New Hamshire.

The rock star, is Senator Barack Obama. The inexperienced Obama has some in the democratic party saying, "Hillary Who?" Mrs. Clinton was considered by many sage political mavens as having a lock on the democratic nomination for president. However, enter Harvard law school graduate, Barack Obama.

The senator was in Manchester, New Hampshire over the weekend. From all accounts, Obama wowed his partisan audience.

Some Hillary supporters are hoping that Obama's rising star, descends to earth as quickly as it ascended. But, I for one do not believe for one moment that "Obama Fever" will break any time soon.

Voters are tired of the old retreads from the 1960's. Obama to them, is a breath of fresh air. He is eloquent, suave and debonair. His appeal is not only restricted to the north, reports say that southern belles have been swept off of their feet by the handsome, bi-racial Obama.

The question is, are Americans ready for a "Black President?" At this juncture of this nation's history, I do not believe so. However, the time will come at some point. And when it does, it will be a person of the same persuasion as Barack Obama. In other words, the person will be of mixed parentage. White Americans will feel more comfortable with that sought of an admixture. Why? I have no answer for that type of xenophobia.

Hillary will have to make a move soon--or else she will be out of the running for the "08" democratic presidential nomination. If "Obama Fever" continues to last, Mrs. Clinton and the rest of the tired old retreads from the 1960's will be picked off one at a time.

Obama has convinced a lot of people that he is a centrist. In essense, he is nothing more than a socialist democrat. He has voted with his party nearly 100% of the time since he entered the most exclusive club in America, the U.S. Senate.

Look for the old guard from the democratic party to start taking pot shots at Obama, if he continues on his expected roll. Eventually, the pot shots will turn into a constant volley. The old guard will question openly his electability. They will also point out his inexperience. At the same time vaulting the electability of Mrs. Clinton.

However, when you look at the records of both Clinton and Obama, you will see very little difference. Both are east coast liberals. Both are tax and spend advocates. And both have little experience in government.

Someone recently asked me why did I think Obama appealed to White Americans. Without hesitating, I said "White Guilt".

My friend looked quizzically at me. I said that White Americans continue to feel guilt over what took place in this country relative to slavery and de-facto Jim Crow laws. In order to assuage their guilt ridden minds, Whites without a whimper, give into the demands of not only African-Americans, but other minority groups as well.

The presidency is seen as the icing on the cake, so to speak. So it is little wonder that Whites want to stamp, "Paid In Full," the bill owed (IN THEIR MINDS) to African-Americans.

I do not believe that most decent African-Americans feel that they are owed anything by their White counterparts. It is for certain that they do not want "Anything" handed to them.

Even if I do not agree with a single thing that Barack Obama stands for, he does not strike me as the type of man who is into pushing "White Guilt".

In the meantime, Obama is telling his audiences that he is still mulling over in his mind and with his family, if he should seek the democratic presidential nomination. He is being urged to run by a number of key democrats.

However, it is the Obama family that must make this all important decision. The most important thing that he must consider is "Will My Life Be Threatened?" The truncated answer is, "YES".

There are a lot of crack pots out there in America. We still have people fighting the War between the States for goodness sakes.

The thought of a black man being the Commander In Chief is just not fathomable for some individuals. They would stop at nothing to make sure that Obama is not elected president.

That includes an attempt on his life. I hope that this bright and able man is cognizant of this. And take the appropriate steps neccesary to protect his life.

"DECEMBER 7TH, 1941, THE DAY THE U.S. WAS ATTACKED"

@ 10:09 AM (35 months, 14 days ago)

BY: DR. FOREST LEWIS

FRIENDS OF "THE TRUTH'

I doubt very seriously if today's hand wringing socialist democrats would have had the intestinal fortitude needed, to take on the Japanese after that country bombed Pearl Harbor on December 7th, 1941.

Today's "Hit And Run Media" would be giving the American public a count of the number of dead following the Japanese brazen attack, which not only killed military personnel, but civilians as well. The body counting done by these socialists would not be for the sake of news reporting. It would be done in an attempt to dissuade the U.S. from engaging the Japanese.

Thank God that we had real Americans back then. Americans did not have to be given promises on a silver platter to defend their country. From small children in every hamlet and village in this great land, to those in larger cities, Americans came together for a common good. They knew that they had a job to do. They realized that it would take everyone, pulling together to defeat this enemy. Incongruency would not do.

Nowadays, the old veterans from the "Big War" are quickly vanishing. There will come a time, when no WW II veterans will be alive. When that day comes, the celebration of December 7th will be just a fading memory.

Today's media only mention this date because it is obligatory. They really couldn't care less. The story has become nothing more than a "Desker" to the "Hit And Run Media". A desker is a story that the anchor reads from his desk. There are no pictures; and no interviews. Just a quick mention of a story. And it's off to more important things, like the latest suicide-bombing in Iraq.

In my opinion, this is the ultimate slap in the face to our veterans from WW II. These men went off to war to make sure that we would remain free. And what do they receive in return? No respect from the elitist slobs who make up the "Hit And Run Media". Hell, these socialists give Al Qaeda more respect.

Some would argue, December 7th, 1941 was sixty-five years ago. Therefore, let the war die. My answer to that is this. If you forget your past, you are apt to repeat it in the future. The people in this country appear to love pain. We ignored Hitler as he slaughtered millions of people. We ignored the Japanese as they marched to war with us. Yes, the appeasement crowd was there in the 1930's. And what did all of their rhetoric get us, nowhere.

We now have a new group of appeasers. James Baker and his motley crew, known as the Iraq Study Group, has advised the President to sit down and talk with the murderers in Syria and Iran. Without saying it, the Baker/Hamilton study group want us to "Cut And Run" from Iraq.

What were these people thinking about? Don't they know their history? Syria and Iran are two countries bent on the destruction of the United States of America. Yet, these arrogant morons of the "Iraq Study Group" has suggested that Mr. Bush humiliate himself and talk with these draconian little people.

"The Hit And Run Media" is gloating over the study group's report. They see the final report as "Giving George Bush His comeuppance". The people in the media act as though they will be insulated if we are attacked again by the IslamoFascists.

As a student of human behavior, I find the media's behavior bizzare at best. Attempting to solve their behavior is not an easy task to perform. I have concluded that they "HATE" George Bush so much that they are willing to promote the defeat of the United States in Iraq, and elsewhere. These idiots fail to realize that if the President is defeated, so will they taste defeat. They are part of the whole that makes up America. And America is despised by the IslamoFascists.

Japan once hated this country. They took out their hatred for us by killing 2,390 souls and wounding 1,178. The battle ship Arizona sank in less than nine minutes after a bomb which weighed nearly two-thousand pounds attacked the ship's deck and struck it ammunition magazine. Moments later, flames enguled the ship.

Twelve ships were also lost along with nine vessels, which were heavily damaged. More than 320 planes were either lost or heavily damaged.

America tried to appease the Japanese before the start of World War II. In the end, we had to do what all nation's must do when its sovereignty is threatened. The United States went to war.

We didn't have the Cindy Sheehan's crying over the lost of their sons. Entertainers like Barbara Streisand, Susan Saradon, Danny Glover, and the Dixie Chicks, did not exist. If so, they were ostracized. Americans came to understand that "WAR IS HELL". Americans also concluded that in war, "PEOPLE DIE". Civilians as well as military.

The world is on the brink of another castastrophe. Yet, you can't convince the socialists of that. They should sit down and talk with one of our old World War II veterans. But then, I don't think that would even help.

"I WONDER WHAT WILL AL SHARPTON SAY ABOUT THIS?"

@ 11:21 AM (35 months, 15 days ago)

BY: FOREST LEWIS, PH.D.

FRIENDS OF "THE TRUTH"

Being a member of law enforcement in this country is a thankless job.

I understand that the police as recently as the 1960's, at least in the south, were also members of of the Klu Klux Klan.

If not members of this terrorist group, they were most certainly klan friendly. They shared sensitive information received from the feds regarding the movement of peaceful civil rights protesters with their klan brethren.

Much has changed since those dark days in law enforcement. Nevertheless, if a black person is roughed up, expect activists "To Come Out Of The Woodwork". If the police happenS to kill a black person, while protecting their own lives, career activists will fire up their community, claiming "Racists Cops Killed The Person".

This is what is presently going on in New York City. Twenty-Three year old Sean Bell was killed by police on November 25th, after police say he rammed his vehicle into their's. Two other individividuals in the bell car were recently released from a New York city hospital, after being treated for their gunshot wounds.

At a protest on Wednesday, protesters called for the resignation of police Commissioner, Raymond Kelly. City Councilman, Charles Barron declared, "Heads Have To Roll". He said the first head to roll, should be that of the police Commissioner's.

In my city of Rochester, New York, protesters were out in forced on Wednesday protesting the shooting of a 50-year old black man.

The protesters were lead by a professional agitator, Joy Powell, herself in trouble with the law for allegedly joining a group of people last fall, and beating her female cousin with a baseball bat. Of course, Powell, who also calls herself "A Reverend," says she is innocent of the charges.

The man that powell and her lackeys are standing up for, is alleged to have pistol whipped two cops, after taking one of the officers gun's. He was later shot by one of the cops, a female, who dropped C.W. Poole with a single 9mm shot to his abdomen.

Both officers received a severe thrashing from the gun wielding Poole. Powell has the unmitigated gall to issue a call to meet with the Mayor of this city, and his police Chief. There is no mention of the beatings the cops sustained. But, that is typical from interlopers like Powell, a transplant from New York City.

It is people like Powell who are responsible for the violence in the Black communities of America. Police are "Damned If They Do, And Damned If They Don't" when protecting those in America's inner cities. There is little wonder that the police are reticent about being pro-active in the black community.

I doubt if the Al Sharpton's and Joy Powell's will tell Carl Andolina and his partner Patrica Parete that they performed beyond the call of duty earlier this week. I doubt if this dubious duo will send the two heroic cops a get well card either.

The two Buffalo, New York police officers faced a "Mad Dog," 18-year old Varner Harris. Harris was in possession of an illegal snub-nose .38 caliber revolver. Police say he shot both Andolina and Parete.

For reasons unknown, Andolina didn't unload his weapon on this punk. Instead, while Harris's revolver was blazing, Andolina charged him. This brave officer had witnessed his partner, Ms. parete being shot in the face. So, he went after this, how can I say it with class, "HUMAN PIECE OF FECES".

Andolina was shot in the left arm and neck. However, he took the gunman down, relieving him of his illegal weapon. Only the Good Lord knows why Andolina didn't kill Harris. I doubt if many would have questioned his motives. He would still be treated as a hero, as he is today. Of course, the Al Sharpton's and Joy Powell's in America would call them something else.

Get this. The Buffalo police Commissioner, H. McCarthy Gipson reports Andolina is wondering if he could have done more. Now, that's a cop's cop. You hear that Al Sharpton? Gipson declared, "We explained to him that his actions were very heroic".

At this writing, Andolina should be at home convalescing. However, things have not gone so well for his partner. Officer Patricia Parete is in serious condition at The Erie County Medical Center. Doctors say Parete faces a long recovery. They say the bullet struck her jaw, and caused, "numerous injuries".

Police say officer Andolina's wounds showed gun powder burns. This is a sure indication that he was "Up Close And Personal" with his potential killer. In fact, he was on top of the suspect when he was shot.

Harris isn't going anywhere any time soon. He is being held without bail on charges of, attempted murder of a police officer, assault and illegal weapons possessions. His lawyer apparently entered a not guilty on his behalf during a court hearing. This creep should never see the outside world ever again.

The Sarah Brady's of the world would have you believe that if we got rid of all guns, the world would be a safer place. First of all, you can't get rid of "all of the guns in the world". Even if we could enter this fantasy world, there would be evil people among us, waiting to take full advantage of our docility.

Since we will never rid the entire world of guns, the best advice that I can give to law abiding citizens, "Arm Yourselves". Learn how to properly use your weapon. Learn the rules of engaging the bad guys. Know the rules in your city and state. And alway have the name of a good attorney who understands the gun laws in your city/state.

We live in a jungle today. And it doesn't matter where you live. The bad guys are coming to a neighborhood near you.

Brave police officers like Carl Andolina and Patrica Parete can not be everywhere. Therefore, it is incumbent upon you to be prepared to protect yourself and your family.

As my 9th grade teacher was accustomed to saying, "A WORD TO THE WISE, SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT".

"THE MORES FROM THE 1960'S COME BACK TO BITE US ALL IN THE BUTT"

@ 12:11 PM (35 months, 16 days ago)

BY: FOREST LEWIS, PH.D.

FRIENDS OF "THE TRUTH"

Growing up in the 1960's, we had a phrase, "IF IT FEELS GOOD, DO IT" . When one stops and process this statement, it is easy to see that proponents of this dictum possessed no boundaries.

This included not caring any longer what God thought of their behavior. God was omitted from this secular quest by the feel good crowd. But, there is a danger in following the dictates of the flesh. However, this is what followers of this belief system are doing. They are attempting to please their fleshy needs. Meantime, their spirituality is dead. Or, they pretend to have spirituality, but if you look deep into the souls of these people, their spirits are not only lost, but dead as well.

The danger in following the desires of your flesh is simple, your fleshly needs can never be satiated. Look at our country today, and you will see a people who have lost their moral compass. This is the result of following the desires of our flesh. We may appear happy, but, are we really happy?

Keep in mind, I don't care what you do in the privacy of your home. However, when you bring that behavior into the pubic square, and expect everyone to "Shut Up, And Endorse What You Are Doing," this is where I as a private citizen, and as a person who loves his country and God, has to stand up and say, what you are doing is wrong.

One of the problems facing our country today is, there is no right or wrong. Actually, wrong is considered right, and right is viewed as wrong today. Think about that for a moment or two.

Some commentators and writers call the perversive behavior plaguing our society today, as being done by "Secular Progressives". I will give you the secular part of their argument--however, "Progressives," there is no chance. A progressive movement in this country is what Dr. King lead. A progressive movement in America, is what Susan B. Anthony fought for--and that was the right for women to vote.

When one is progressive, the entire country benefits from the societal change that a particular group is advocating. I have argued before, that secularists are just that--people who are lead by their fleshy needs. There is nothing progressive about their agenda. If anything what they are pushing for, is injurious to this country as a whole.

I don't know if you heard or not, but Dick Cheney's daughter, 37-year old Mary Cheney is pregnant. Mary Cheney is a lesbian. She lives with 45-year old Heather Poe. They have been together for the past 15-years.

Homosexual groups have been pushing the notion that gays are "Born That Way". While I believe that some people are born gay, I do not believe that the plethora of homosexuals that we see today, were born gay. You have to consider enviromental circumstances as contributing factors for their homosexuality.

Ms. Cheney is seen as the "Woman" in the relationship. Ms. Poe is viewed as the, "Man". If Ms. Poe was born as a man inside, why couldn't she have impregnated Ms. Cheney? The answer is simple, Ms. Poe is a "Female, Through and Through." She did not come into this world as a woman, with a man inside of her.

This whole notion of a "Gay Gene" is laughable, not to mention, "Junk Science". There is absoloutely "NO" evidence of a so-called, "Gay Gene". It is a hypothesis pushed by desperate people who want acceptance by society. There is "No Evidence" that gays brains are "Wired" any differently than that of a heterosexual. If any of this nonsense were true, and you call yourself a Christian, "YOU WOULD HAVE TO THROW OUT YOUR BIBLE, BECAUSE IT WOULD BE FULL OF LIES AGAINST HOMOSEXUALS". But, whether you like it or not, the Bible is the inerrant word of God.

"I ACCEPT GAY PEOPLE AS THEY ARE". However, I just do not accept their agenda, of, (a) Marriage, (b) A special law to protect gays from "Idiots", who want to do them harm. African-Americans never had such legislation; and yet they were not only harassed, but murdered as well, into the thousands. (c) Openly gay males/females in the military, and (d) Gay scouts.

Gays say they need to have the right to marry, in order to receive the rights of their deceased partners. They can do that now without getting married, it is called, "A LIVING WILL".

Once upon a time, psychiatry treated homosexuality as a psychiatric disorder. That was until militant gay psychiatrists and psychologists took over their various organizations. Gay psychiatrists and psychologists took over their associations by:

- Threats

- demonstration

- Shouting down opponents who attempted to speak

- "Cooking the books" on research that presented the homosexual lifestyle in a positive manner

Despite the take over of the American Psychiatric Association and the American Psychological Association by gays, there is still a diagnosis in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual IV, that addresses the issue of homosexuality. The diagnosis is known as Gender Identity Disorder. To meet this criteria, the DSM-IV Observes:

. A stated desire to be the opposite sex

. Frequently "passing" as the opposite sex

. A desire to live or be treated as a member of the opposite sex

. Having the conviction that one experiences the typical feelings and reactions of the opposite sex

With all of their so-called smarts, gay psychiatrists and psychologists missed this diagnosis that was slipped into the DSM-IV.

Not only have professional associations been hijacked by homosexuals, I can tell you as a clinical psycholgist, that gays have also hijacked, community mental health agencies, substance abuse facilities, and inpatient facilities, where the mentally ill, and substance abusers are treated. Employes dared not say anything negative about homosexuals. They would be terminated forthwith.

Keep in mind who therapists in the above facilities treat. By and large, African-Americans. African-Americans are quite conservative on issues like homosexuality. Now, consider being told that your primary therapist is a lesbian or gay male. What do you think the attrition rate is?

Again, we have "The Hit And Run Media" to thank for a lot of the distortion surrounding human psychology. People today say they are Christians, however, they are found wanting on the subject of natural law. Therefore, "They Get Their Backs Up," when the words tradition, truth, morality, sin and right and wrong are mentioned.

However, these same people do support "Rights". There has been a shift in this country regarding "Gay Rights". More and more Americans are supporting the gay agenda. And they don't even realize that they are being manipulated by the media.

Mary Cheney isn't saying how she got pregnant. However, we know that "A MAN WAS INVOLVED". That is the only way that she could have conceived. Again, it is called "NATURAL LAW".

It is ironic that Dick Cheney's other daughter, Elizabeth Cheney is also with child. Elizabeth Cheney, is married "To A Man".

"LIBERAL DEMOCRATS ARE SHOUTING, WE TOLD YOU SO"

@ 02:49 PM (35 months, 17 days ago)

BY: FOREST LEWIS, PH.D.

FRIENDS OF "THE TRUTH"

The socialist democrats, liberals and an assortment of other wackos on the left are dancing in the streets.

Defense secretary nominee Robert gates told these passive wimps what they have been longing to hear.

When asked at his senate confirmation hearing if the U.S. was winning the war in Iraq, Gates said, "No Sir". The wackos let out a deep sigh; and experienced, what amounts to a political orgasm.

These are the people who have been rooting for our boys to lose in Iraq, ever since Saddam Hussein was toppled as the de-facto leader of the country known in biblical times as Babylon.

Mark my words, these wackos now have the ammunition they need, to increase their call for a speedy U.S. withdrawal from the Iraqi theatre.

These people do not believe that the U.S. should use its armed forces, except to feed the hungry, or to build fences along the Mexican border. The notion of a testosterone laden group of men fighting in a war, why, it is enough to cause the spineless cowards on the left to go into full cardiac arrest.

These people now have the excuse needed to stop the U.S. from ever defending itself. I mentioned in a column on Monday that the democrats don't believe in using our military the way it was designed to be used, to fight and kill people. They are of the opinion that any crisis in the world, can be dealt with through dialogue.

Of course, this is sheer lunancy. It is also suicidal. The democrats have tried to paint President Bush as the enemy. They have eyes, but sadly to say, they can not see. Or maybe, they are too afraid to see. The enemy is Iran, Syria, and IslamoFascism. However, you can't convince socialist democrats and their liberal buddies of that.

If the President is forced to withdraw our troops prematurely from Iraq, not only will a bloodbath ensue, once our forces are removed, no other country will ever trust the United States to keep its word of defending them against tyranny.

That is fine with the left. "They Support The Troops," as long as the troops are on U.S. soil. And even then, the lefties couldn't care less about our men and women in uniform. When they say they support the troops, it is only lip service. It has a nice ring to it. If they supported the troops, they would stand behind our armed forces, who to a man, believe that what we are doing in Iraq is the right thing to do.

Socialist democrats have been waiting with bated breath to hear someone from the Bush administration say that "We Are Loosing The War In Iraq". These few syllables not only give the left the fodder they need to pull our troops out Iraq, that is if Bush goes along with their suicidal/homicidal plan, this truncated statement also means to socialist democrats, "We Shouldn't Have Been In Iraq In The First Place". With their pals from the "Hit And Run Media" running negative stories daily on Iraq, the public has now had its table set.

The question is, will the public at large fall for this canard created by socialist democrats? If the people align themselves with the cowards from the democratic party, we will have hell to pay down the road. There is no doubt in my mind regarding this last statement.

Do not think for one minute that the little weasel in Iraq, Herr Von Ahmandinejad, will not unleash a fury against this country. Already, this diminutive termite thinks Americans are "Cowards". Pulling out of Iraq at the wrong time, will simply embolden this modern day Adolph Hitler. And to think, some on the left are calling on the President "To Talk" with this Hater of America. If we follow this craziness to it illogical conclusion, why doesn't the President sit down and talk with Lucifer, once he's finished with Ahmandinejad?

The socialist democrats appear unfazed by Ahmandinejad. Their lunatic thinking goes something like this, "If we leave them alone, they won't bother us". Sure. But, Don't bet the farm on that. This little toad loves that kind of talk. In the meantime, Ahmandinejad continues with his incendiary speeches against us. He has made it clear regarding the fate of Israel. And Ahmandinejad has been very clear regarding his hatred of the United States Of America.

Iraq is the front in the ward on IslamoFascism. To leave the war, would only beget thousands more of IslamoFascists. Do not think for a minute that they will confine their barbaric ways to the Middle East, Africa, India, Pakistan, ect.

These fanatics goal is to bring the "Great Satan,' the United States, to its knees. We are the infidels, according to these automatons, engaging in a decadent lifestyle, that is antithetical to their skewed religious beliefs.

Apparently, the left has a very short memory. They don't recall the Taliban in Afghanistan. These rutheless killers are misogynistic and parochial in their overall thinking.

These are the types of people that we are at war with. Running from them will not help. Talking with them "WILL NOT HELP". These people are ideologues, like the socialist democrats. However, unlike democrats, these IslamoFascists seem to enjoy seeing the blood of innocent people spilled.

Although the socialist democrats are not killers, per se, their perspective on how to deal with IslamoFascists, is tantamout to leading the American people, like sheep to the slaughter.

America needs to wake up. Heretofore, we have had to endure the war via our television sets. However, if the socialist democrats get their way, the war will be on the streets of America, "En- Vivo".

Pay very close attention to the socialist democrats in the days to come. Their rhetoric will become louder, in the wake of the Gates statement that, " THE U.S. IS NOT WINNING THE WAR IN IRAQ".

"IS ANOTHER PRESIDENT CLINTON IN YOUR FUTURE?"

@ 02:47 PM (35 months, 18 days ago)

BY; FOREST LEWIS, PH.D.

FRIENDS OF "THE TRUTH'

Do you ever find yourself asking this question, "What Is Wrong With The People In This Country?"

I know that I have. After the socialist democrats swept both chambers of the House in November, I found myself asking, what were Americans thinking?

We know what these people, the democrats stand for, "Nothing". They are full of nothing but hot air. A liberal democrat can talk until you are blue in the face. That is their solution to everything that is troubling the world. "Talk It Out".

There is nothing wrong with engaging in social intercourse. However, I have a real problem with our President sitting down with Herr Von Ahmadinejad of Iran. But, this is what some democrats want Mr. Bush to do. Sit down with this little tyrant.

Anyone with active brain cells understand that Ahmadinejad could conceivably become the world's next Hitler. Hell, he has already announced it. The little creep has stated that he would like to "WIPE ISRAEL OFF THE MAP". Nevertheless, socialist democrats say, let's talk to this demented little man.

Yeah, advocates of this silly idea make me ask, "What Is Wrong With The People In This Country?"

The buzz is out that Hillary Clinton will have her big coming out soon. At one point, there were some political mavens saying that Mrs. Clinton would not run for the Presidency in "08." Now, all bets are off.

"The Hit And Run Media" is wondering if Mrs. Clinton has the wherewithal to be elected. In some circles, the media says Mrs. Clinton's electability is being questioned more than say, a John McCain's. Hmmm, I wonder why.

Clinton met with New York Governor-elect, Elliot Spitzer over the past weekend. The meeting is seem by many as a harbinger of the Former First Lady "tossing her hat" into the political ring.

Dick Harpotian, the former chairman of the South Carolina Democratic Party is telling Mrs. Clinton, "Not So Fast". Harpotian does not believe that Mrs. Clinton can be elected President.

Said Harpotian, "She's a senator, she'd be the first woman running, and she's Hillary Clinton. All of that is almost insurmountable for a general election."

Harpotian makes a good point. However, he does not understand the complicated dynamics that make up Hillary Rodham Clinton. The woman has an ego as big as the universe.

She is possesed with the idea, that she was placed on this planet by God, to be President of the United States. Some call that delusional thinking. However, I think the woman is a dyed-in the wool classic narcissist.

To the narcissist, they are the center of everything. They have an insatiable sense of entitlement. And they are without peer.

You can bet on it. Hillary Clinton will run for President in 2008. When one looks at her competion in the Democratic Party, it is easy to see she why she will capture the nomination.

She will easily outdistance people like, Barack Obama. What has he ever done? Come to think of it, what did Mrs. Clinton accomplished during her six years in the U.S. Senate? Nonetheless, because of her name recognition, Obama goes down. So will Governor Tom Vilsack of Iowa, Evan Bayh of Indiana, Governor Bill Richardson of New Mexico, Former North Carolina Senator, John "The Breck Girl" Edwards, and lastly, old long face, John Kohn-Kerry.

Just looking at the names on my list gives me chills. John Kohn-Kerry as President, Whew!!!

I can see it all now, ah, President Kohn-Kerry, what should we do about Iran?

Kohn-Kerry---Get Ahmadinejad on the phone. We should (BORING MONOTONE VOICE) have talked to him a long time ago

Kohn-Kerry--No wait, let me think about that for a minute

Aide--President Kohn-Kerry, it's been a month since you said, "Give you a minute"

Kohn-Kerry--"I never said that". Wait I did, but I said wait a minute before I said wait a minute

Kohn-Kerry--Ha-Ha, That was a little joke, my man. Ha-Ha, another "botched Joke"

Aide--Hello, Dr. Phil? H-E-L-P

This guy would make great copy, for writers like me, and other serious Conservative bloggers, however, as President, are you kidding? I would no sooner trust the country to Bozo the clown than to John Kohn-Kerry. That last comment was rhetorical. Everyone relax.

Hillary Clinton isn't joking. James "The Joker" Carville said recently, "we've heard all this, Hillary can't win stuff before." Carville was referring to Mrs. Clinton's race against Rick Lazaro for New York Senate in 2000. That year, Mrs. Clinton defeated Lazaro, a former New York area Congressman, by 12 percentage points.

Is it possible that Mrs. Clinton could become our next President? After the last election, "I think that anything is possible".

I would hate to wake up the morning after the 2008 Presidential election and ask, "What Is Wrong With The People In This Country?"

"HAVE YOU HEARD, THERE IS A CIVIL WAR GOING ON IN IRAQ?"

@ 02:56 PM (35 months, 19 days ago)

BY: FOREST LEWIS, PH.D.

FRIENDS OF "THE TRUTH"

Well, boys and girls, "The Hit And Run Media" has made it official. At least NBC News and CBS have. Both networks are declaring that the Iraqis are engaged in a "Civil War".

The always arrogant, Katie Couric, questioned Dr. Condolezza Rice the other day. She "demanded" to know why Dr. Rice and others in the Bush Administration can't see what the networks are seeing. Rice deftly put the little munchkin in her place by stating that Couric and her confederates could call the fighting among Iraqis whatever they wanted to call it. Still, she said, their labeling the fighting a civil war, does not make it so.

"The Hit And Run Media" has long since left its objectivity at home. The media "Darlings Make" the news nowadays. Reporting, well, that went out with the dinosaurs. Today's media is about looking good and getting into the face of the interviewee, and forcing their point of view down the throat of the unsuspecting person.

Maybe the Katie Courics and Brian Williams know something that the President doesn't know. This from a group of cowards who did most of their reporting from their hotel balconies, until they were called out by radio commentator, Laura Ingraham.

Ingraham appeared on the today show earlier this year; and she was interviewed by that pompous jackass, David Gregory. Gregory who put the "N" in the word "Narcissistic," attempted to bully Ms. Ingraham. Sorry David, you picked on the wrong woman. When he attempted to shift the topic from Iraq to something else, Ms. Ingraham would have nothing of it.

Ingraham demanded to know why NBC didn't have its reporters out in the field covering "All" aspects of the war in Iraq. The normally diarrheic mouth Gregory, didn't have an answer for the clever Ingraham.

Wouldn't you know it, the very next day, NBC got "Little Richard Engel" from in front of the mirror, and had him do a piece "From The Field". It has been that way ever since, with some reporting still being done from the perch of their balconies.

The news of a civil war being proclaimed by a bunch of people who are too afraid to leave their hotels. Their arrogance certainly knows no bounds.

We all know that the media is no friend of George Bush. And we all know that the media did a hit job on the President and the GOP leading up to the mid-term elections. We are fully aware that the media kept hitting hard on Iraq, and the public got fed up, and put the shameless socialist democrats in charge of the House and Senate; at least for the next two years anyway.

The "Hit And Run Media" is "Obsessed" with trying to embarass the President. They have appointed themselves the "Lords" of the land; and we are viewed as mere serfs. Too stupid to figure out what the media is up to.

The media figures that if it continues to show blown up vehicles, and body parts on the ground, the public will force President Bush to withdraw our troops from Iraq sooner than he would like too. Of course, throwing in the words, "Civil War," aids the media with its message.

So, let's see, the President of this country doesn't call the fighting in Iraq a civil war, and al-Maliki, the President of Iraq isn't calling the sectarian violence a civil war. However, our see all, and know all media is reporting that Iraq is in the throes of a civil war.

The American public needs to understand that the media is not their friend. The public also needs to know that the media that we grew up listening to, or viewing, are not cut from the same cloth as an Edward R. Murrow, Chet Huntley, David Brinkley, Jessica Savage, or even Walter Cronkite.

The media today, are a bunch of spoiled, over-paid, egoistically intoxicated, small minded, imps.

They act as if they are on a mission from God to lead us rubes and hayseeds to the promise land of socialism. Their tacit message to us is, "Don't Think, We Will Think For You".

The conduct of today's media must make Lenin, Stalin, and Chairman Mao smile.

"FORMER NATION OF ISLAM FOLLOWER GIVES UNCLE SAM A SLAP IN THE FACE"

@ 03:29 PM (35 months, 20 days ago)

BY: FOREST LEWIS, PH.D.

FRIENDS OF "THE TRUTH"

I used to be amazed, but nowadays, I am simply amused.

What in God's dear name were the people in Minnesota's Fifth House District thinking about when they voted for Congressman-elect, and "Muslim," Keith Ellison?

Apparently, their brains were on loan somewhere. Ellison has promised the people of his district that when he is sworn in, he will take the oath of office on the "Koran," and not the King James version of the Bible.

This former "National Of Islam" follower, and student of Louis Farrahkan, is the first Muslim to be elected to the House of Representatives. There are some people who see nothing wrong with this Minnesota attorney taking the oath on the Koran. However, I am not one of those individuals who is willing to sell his country down the river.

This country was founded on the tentets of "Judeo Christian Philosophy," not "Allah, Buddha, Shintoism" or anything else. It is as simple as that.

Ellison is displaying a level of arrogance that we see all too often from those in the Muslim community. Recently, a group of "Imams" were kicked off a plane, because they felt the need to pray to "Allah".

The Immams were taken off a US Airways flight at Minneapolis, St. Paul International Airport on 11/20/06. Authorities stated that the Immams were engaging in suspicious activities. The "Religious Leaders," were handcuffed and questioned by law enforcement for several hours.

Upon their release, the Immams ran straight to the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). Members of CAIR have now "Called For Congressional Hearings" on religious and ethnic profiling at U.S. airports.

Congress needs to tell CAIR to "Go Pound Sand" somewhere in the Middle East.

Americans, more to the point, White Americans bear the blame for this arrogance coming from the Muslim community. I believe that White Americans are caught up with guilt from the past. They are so imbued with guilt that they fear speaking out on issues that need to be addressed. White Americans fear that they will be called "Racists".

I for one feel that White Americans have nothing to atone for. They need to stop asking for "Forgiveness" from every minority group that has been offended. What has happened in the past, needs to be left there.

However, this taciturn behavior from White Americans have caused people like Ellison to "Dare Whites To Say Anything Negative" about people like him. And Whites oblige arrogant jackasses like this "Race Baiter".

AOL conducted a poll recently on the Ellison controversy. AOL asked its readers two questions:

- ARE YOU OFFENDED BY ELLISON'S DECISION TOTAKE THE OATH OF OFFICE ON A KORAN:

YES= 55%

NO= 45%

SHOULD LAWMAKERS REGARDLESS OF THEIR FAITH, HAVE TO SWEAR ON THE BIBLE?

- YES= 54%

- NO= 41%

- NOT SURE= 5%

Observe the numbers from the first question. A startling 45% of respondents said they were not offended by Ellison's decision to take the oath of office on the Koran. That is simply amazing.

Again, I think the numbers involving both questions are the result of "White Guilt".

When will we as a people start taking the Keith Ellison's of the world to the "Woodshed" for a serious talk?

Folks like Ellison continue to push the envelope. And Americans continue to "Bend Over And Grab Their Ankles".

The operational definition of the world guilt says, "I have done something wrong".

Tell me America, what have you done to the Keith Ellison's and Muslims of the World?

Finally, why are we giving people like this power that could eventually hurt us?

"THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION IS FULL OF ARROGANT LITTLE PEOPLE"

@ 02:19 PM (35 months, 20 days ago)

BY: FOREST LEWIS, PH.D.

FRIENDS OF "THE TRUTH"

I have been a staunch defender of the Bush administration over the years.

However, I am in no way "In The Tank" for the President.

With that said, I have noticed an arrogant attitude coming from the people who work for the President.

It is arrogance that brought down the GOP's control of the House and Senate. You would think that these dumbells would get it by now. But, not so.

It is difficult for anyone from the Bush administration to admit a mistake. Think about that for a moment. When was the last time you heard someone from this administration say, "We Made A Mistake?"

The latest bit of arrogance emerging from this administration stems from the mishandling of a soldier's coffin at my local airport.

I have written a column on this incident. You may want to read it. If so, I am confident that you will be "Outraged" as I was when I heard the story.

"WHAT THE HELL WERE THE KNUCKLEHEADS AT THE AIRPORT THINKING?"

@ 06:02 AM (35 months, 21 days ago)

BY: FOREST LEWIS, PH.D.

FRIENDS OF "THE TRUTH"

I am embarassed to say that I live only a scant ten minutes away from the airport where the casket bearing the body of one of our heroes was recently disrespected by some miscreant.

If it had not been for an alert citizen, we would probably never have heard of the flag-draped coffin being placed into a cart with passenger baggage last month.

The malevolent deed took place at the Greater Rochester(NY) International Airport. Cynthia Hoag, a 56-year old woman from Dansville, which is in Livingston County, New York, noticed the egregious lack of respect for the soldier, believed to be that of Army Sgt. 1st Class Tony Knier of sabinsville, Pennsylvania.

Mrs. Hoag stated that, "It Looked Awful, Just Awful". She added, "Maybe, We Made Too Much Out Of It, But It Was Very Disturbing To Us. If That Had Been My Son, I Would Have Been Very Upset".Amazingly, airport officials are saying that "Mrs. Hoag Did Not See What She Thought She Saw". And a spokeswoman for the Defense Department says the Hoag story is simply, "Implausible".

Why the Defense Department spokeswoman, Cynthia Smith, would call this brave woman a "Liar," is beyond me. However, this is not the first time that the body of a soldier has been disrespected at a U.S. airport.

In the meantime, a funeral director from Pennsylvania has confirmed that he transported Sgt. Knier's body from the Rochester airport on October 27th. Ironically, Mrs. Hoag was at the airport "That Day". Yet, her credibility is being called into question by atleast two knuckleheads.

Dr. Lewis' first rule of "hole digging" goes something like this. "WHEN DIGGING YOURSELF A HOLE, STOP". Only a moron would call this woman a liar.

Sgt. Knier's mom is outraged over the incident. Betty Tidwell who resides in Tennessee declared:

"If that is what that lady saw, I'm outraged. I'm really upset, because my son died for this country. He gave all he had to this country. And for them to do that to him, that just upsets the hell out of me".

Hoag said that she was at the airport with friends, when she witnessed a soldier standing at attention near a commercial airplane. She said as the luggage came off the plane, she noticed a coffin draped with an American Flag come down a luggage conveyor on the runway.

Hoag's account has gotten the attention of Monroe County Executive, Maggie Brooks. Brooks has fired off a letter to the feds, demanding that they change their policy in order to prevent a similar incident from occurring. Brooks said what happened, "is an outrage".

In the meantime, Defense Department mouthpiece, Cynthnia Smith, is tied up in beauracratic jargon. She is sticking to the Defense Department's story regarding how the bodies of our dead are treated, while being transported.

Smith maintains that "All Military Bodies" shipped from Iraq-- are transferred to Dover Air Force Base in Delaware. The bodies are then flown to the soldiers home, said Smith. She noted that a military escort will accompany each flight. Smith continued by saying, it doesn't matter if the flight is domestic or military. After the coffin arrives at its home area, it is met by an honor guard, consisting of two people. It is then taken to the local funeral home.

Monroe County officials admit that the lines of communication between civilian and military personnel are not always open. In fact, airport officials report that the military does not have an obligation to contact them whenever a soldier's coffin is en-route.

Airport Director, David Damelio said he was out of the loop regarding what took place at his airport. He said that he knew nothing of the situation until an op-ed piece written by Hoag appeared in the local paper.

In the same breath, this pencil pusher said Hoag's story "doesn't make sense". Yet, another moron calling this good citizen, "A Liar".

I have a simple question for David Damelio, "Why Would Your Boss Write To the Federal Government, If The Hoag Story Were Not True?" Wake up Damelio and smell the coffee. Maybe, he should drink some coffee. Lots of Java Joe.

At the end of the day, a number of officials will have to eat crow.

New York State is a litigant's paradise. Maybe Mrs. Cynthia Hoag will sue the feds and local officials for calling her credibility into question.

No matter how old I get, I continue to be amazed at people who can only see black or gray.

The defense department is saying that what Hoag saw couldn't have happened, because that's not the way the procedure is written. Airport Director, David Damelio is drinking some of the kool aid being administered by the defense department.

Everyone seems to forget that we are all human, and that we have myriad foibles, which cause us to "MAKE MISTAKES".

However, it seems easier today to call someone a liar, before all of the evidence is in.

This is yet another sign of what is wrong with America, today.

Yet, we wonder why individual citizens don't get involved when they see a wrong being committed.
