Clinton Cracks Jokes About His Past

Clinton Cracks Jokes About His Past



That's real nice. This article is much more offensive to me than the title would initially suggest. He doesn't just make light of the Monica Lewinsky scandal, but his handling of military affairs as well. Not to mention he is cracking jokes while working on global disaster relief and AIDS/HIV programs. Further, this is what he says about working on the program:

"I don't mind working on boring topics. I like boring."

Nice to see he is taking such an interest in HIV/AIDS and global disaster. He also seems to wear the Lewinsky scandal as a badge of honor, referring to himself as, "the world's most famous sinner." Yeah, ha, ha, real funny.

Perhaps he has a better take on his national security stance:

"I always thought of Senator Fulbright and the terrible quagmire in Vietnam and how many times we sent more soldiers and found ourselves in a hole and kept digging because we didn't want to look like we were weak. So anytime somebody said in my presidency, 'If you don't do this people will think you're weak,' I always asked the same question for eight years: "Can we kill 'em tomorrow?""If we can kill 'em tomorrow, then we're not weak, and we might bewise enough to try to find an alternative way."

Eight years of putting it off until tomorrow. Well, your lack of action against bin Laden got thousands of Americans killed!!!!!!!!!! And what alternatives? You mean do nothing but have an affair with an intern? Or maybe tout an economy that was built on nothing but pure speculation? Maybe just hope it will go away? Or better yet, skip out of office and leave it to someone else. Or, perhaps, all of the above. Let's blame September 11th on the 9 months Bush was in office instead of the 8 years of Don Juan Clinton. I'm glad he can be so glib about it. His refusal to go after bin Laden with boots on the ground (troops) and his tying of the hands of the CIA is what allowed September 11th to happen. I know I have referred to this book before, but read the book Jawbreaker and you will see all of the obstacles the CIA came up against because of Clinton and his appointed roadblock, George Tenet.

This guy’s presidency was a joke; at least now he recognizes it as well. I wonder if the people who lost friends and family on September 11th can look back at his presidency with such a jovial attitude. I don't care if you worship at the house of Clinton or not. How can you not be offended by this?

Sen. Clinton Calls for 'Return to Fiscal Discipline'

Sen. Clinton Calls for 'Return to Fiscal Discipline'

HA…HA…HA…HA…HA…HA…HA…HA…one second…HA… HA…HA…HA…HA…HA…HA…HA…okay, phew I needed that.
I think we have someone trying to set themselves up as a moderate Democrat for, say maybe, an election. Which one, I cannot tell, but something smells rotten. She's even boasting about her husbands presidency. Wow, she's got a pair I'll tell ya.

Immigration Proposals Spur Nationwide Rallies

Headline : Immigration Proposals Spur Nationwide Rallies

Once again we see a rush to the immediacy America is so well known for when it comes to a call for protests. Big picture? What big picture? This country has to control its boarders for security. As far as I can tell this legislation still allows for legal immigration. It strikes me as odd that thousands and thousands of illegal immigrants are gathering in one location when they are here illegally. Seems like easy pickings for the Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency. Of course, this is a problem of our own creation. Yeah, it's going to be a bit of a painful transition to get things right, but it needs to be done. It also shows how quickly people from a foreign land can buy into the "entitlement" rhetoric so pervasive in this country. I don't understand what is so difficult to understand. There are legal steps to take if you want to become a citizen of this country. If you don't want to go through the process then stay put. I someone robs a bank and doesn't get caught, should they then be entitled to ask that their illegal action be overlooked? Isn't that what we are seeing now? Someone came here illegally and now they want that to be overlooked and be given full citizenship rights. There is absolutely no logic to it. One common argument is that our economy would not survive because they do jobs that other Americans would not do for that amount of money. Would anyone care to look at the expenses they create through welfare, subsidized housing, free healthcare, free public education, etc? That's a lot of tax dollars and I would be willing to bet that not a lot of illegal immigrants are picking up their share off the tax burden to offset those costs. I think you will find that the tax money spent far exceeds the perceived increase in wages and costs. But, of course, that is the big, long-term picture and we here in America don't like that. I don't begrudge somebody the opportunity to come to this country. I just don't see why there is such a problem with doing it legally.

Iran Test-Fires Another 'Top Secret' Missile

FOX News Headline: Iran Test-Fires Another 'Top Secret' Missile

At first I was concerned, but then I remembered that the U.N. is handling things with Iran. Phew! I am so relieved. For a minute I thought an antiquated, irrelevant world organization might be in charge of confronting Iran. Wait, what? Doh, we're screwed. I guess they will have to send a couple of their surface to sea missles down to Bahrain and sink a few of our ships before we push for stronger involvement. Of course, to the U.N., attacks on U.S. interests would not be any reason to up the pressure on Iran. Don't say we didn't warn you.

New Pics

Sorry for the lack of actual blogging over the last week. Work's crazy and we are trying to get the house finished so we can make the big move; for those of you keeping score, we're getting close. It's also been very nice outside and I have taken advantage of it and shot some more photos. As usual they are posted here - enjoy.
