More proof that "sensitivity" is ridiculous, totally stupid and any other words that I can't think of now...
The Rubidoux High School Choir (in Riverside, California) was asked to stop singing Christmas carols at the Riverside Skating Rink. The reason? 2006 Olympic silver-medalist Sasha Cohen, who had performed at the Riverside Skating Rink and was signing autographs close by, is half-Jewish.
Not only is that ridiculous, but Cohen's mother (who was with her) said that when they found out "Sasha was stunned. We both thought the voices were just lovely, they were doing such a wonderful job. Christmas carols are part of celebrating the holiday season." Is the ACLU listening? Cohen's mother went on to say that Sasha had taken part in the lighting of Christmas trees in both New York and California.
Hopefully people reading this story will realize that anyone offended by Christmas (and its many songs and greetings) should get a life. (Again: Is the ACLU listening?) Oh, and by the way, Merry Christmas!

Republicans such as Newt Gingrich and Arlen Specter say that Bush should have announced Rumsfeld's resignation before the elections. This they are convinced would have kept the Republicans in charge of Congress. Apparently both Gingrich and Specter believe that Iraq and Rumsfeld was why Republicans lost the election, and that could every well be the reason that the Democrats voted against the Republicans (haha). But the Republicans lost because they were expanding government, increasing spending and giving amnesty to illegal aliens. The GOP voters were so sick and tired of these acts, more worthy of a Democrat controlled government than a Republican one, that they stayed at home, and now the country will suffer.
But I believe there is a silver-lining to this cloud: after two years of a Democratic controlled Congress, the American people(including the GOP voters) are gong to flood the streets in 2008 to vote against whoever the Democrats nominate for President, Hillary or whomever.

The Party of Cut and Run
Well, I was wrong and I admit it. The Republicans did lose.
All through the campaigns we heard that the Democrats were the party of "cut and run" but the Republicans have shown themselves equal to the task. Within hours of losing control of the house, President Bush announced the resignation of Donald Rumsfeld. Also within hours the President held a press conference in which he pandered to the Democrats by saying "The message yesterday was clear: The American people want their leaders in Washington to set aside partisan differences, conduct ourselves in an ethical manner, and work together to address the challenges facing our nation." Maybe actually the American people were discouraged with the Republican Party's performance on illegal immigration (especially the President's amnesty program) and their increasing of government programs. These disappointments led to the voters staying home or voting against Republicans, granted the Democrats are even worse on these issues, but the American people expect the Republicans to act like Republicans.
I am truly sorry for Pennsylvanians who will now have to endure both Arlen Specter and Bob Casey, Rick Santorum was one of the few real Republicans (with a spine) left in the Senate, again my condolences to the citizens of Pennsylvania.

Kerry's Mouth
After the elections on Tuesday, the GOP should thank their secret weapon...John Kerry's Mouth. John Kerry has just won an election for us. Once again Kerry got caught criticizing our brave troops and is now trying to worm his way out of it before he does his party permanent damage.
Kerry apparently believes that our men and women in uniform are all idiots. Kerry, trying to be a smart-aleck, and failing miserably, said, "If you make the most of it and you study hard and you do your homework and you make an effort to be smart, you can do well. If you don't, you get stuck in Iraq."
I'm guessing as soon of the words were out of his mouth, the democratic leadership made a mad scramble to the phones to get him a covering statement. That statement is that it was a "bungled joke" about the President and his advisors. I still don't see where calling the soldiers in Iraq morons gets to criticizing the President but we'll let that pass for now.
Kerry may has just cost his party the election...but I (being a positive guy) am not one of the doom-and-gloomers who believes that the GOP would have lost anyway. But I just let it ride when I read or hear the predictions for the elections, the time to strike is when they think they're going to win it all and you (to use a football analogy) intercept the ball and score a touchdown, while they watch in stunned silence.
Above is a cool picture from Iraq...you've gotta love those guys...

German ex-chancellor is writing a book about himself. Gerhard Schroeder recently released an advance excerpt from his memoirs entitled Decisions: My Life In Politics in Der Spiegel magazine.
In this excerpt Schroeder reveals that in his meetings with President Bush on Iraq, before the war began, he was worried. "What worried me, despite a relaxed atmosphere to our talks, and to a certain degree what made me skeptical was how much it came through that this president saw himself as 'God-fearing' and saw that as the highest authority."
Apparently this came as a shock to Schroeder who believed that he himself was the highest authority. But even Mr. Schroeder knew that stating that in his book would raise eyebrows and so instead he said he was worried about this because: "Quite rightly we criticize that in most Islamic states the role of religion in society and the secular character of the legal system are not clearly separated. But we haven't taken note as readily of the U.S. Christian fundamentalists and their interpretation of the bible that show similar tendencies."
Similar tendencies? Last time I checked Christians didn't go around bombing buildings when someone criticizes their faith, like the Muslims did after the Pope made his speech in which he quoted a Medieval text referring to Islam as "a religion spread by the sword."
And Christians also don't kill 3,000 innocent people by crashing planes into buildings for no reason...or maybe the 19 hijackers were all Christians which is why they are reported to have cried "Allah, akbar!" on their way to their death.

How desperate is the gay and lesbian movement? So desperate that they're using animals as their latest campaign scam. I was checking the headlines on AOL tonight and came across a headline that said: "Birds and Bees May Be Gay, Museum Shows."
It turns out that a museum in Oslo (that's the capital of Norway) has opened a "Gay Animals" exhibit. The Oslo Natural History Museum has a new exhibit which features homosexuality among animals. I can't go into detail because of the disgusting descriptions that would be involved in the sort of displays in this exhibit.
Now supposedly some animals are gay? I'm not a trained scientist but it seems to me that this would refute evolution (the sacred cow of the liberal scientists). According to that theory (which I don't believe in)don't animals get better, they evolve into better animals? Animals that don't reproduce are not better animals and they will die out. Maybe that's what happened to the dinosaurs they all turned gay and couldn't reproduce.
This is the latest attempt to justify an immoral and disgusting lifestyle that God condemns. It makes me sick to think of the people who are injecting this sleaze into our culture.

Once again Islam has proved itself a "religion of peace." After Pope Benedict XVI's remarks in which he quoted a medieval text calling the teachings of Islam "evil and inhuman" and that Islam was a religion "spread by the sword." Muslims everywhere demonstrated violently. The Pope was burned in effigy and churches in the Middle East were bombed.
Of course, Pope Benedict apologized but the Muslims still aren't satisfied, Al-Qaeda has released a statement saying that: "you (the Pope) and the West are doomed as you can see from the defeat in Iraq, Afghanistan, Chechnya and elsewhere. ... We will break up the cross, spill the liquor and impose the 'jizya' tax, then the only thing acceptable is a conversion (to Islam) or (being killed by) the sword." But of course Islam is a religion of peace...hold it...everything that this statement says backs up the Pope's comments.
This religion is not normal, you'll notice that when Christianity is attacked in public speeches or in the media Christians don't go on burning effigies or bombing buildings or even issuing hate-filled statements.
The Prophet Mohammed told his followers that the "infidels" had two choices 1) to convert to Islam or 2) to be killed. And that's THE RELIGION OF PEACE?
I would admit that there are Muslims who don't follow the Prophet's instructions but those teachings in themselves are violent and definitely not peaceful. One wonders which side Mohammed would side with if eh were alive today, but my guess is he'd be the top of Al-Qaeda or something.
