As I write this, I am among the offline world but I just saw the President's speech on the war in Afghanistan. Apparently, he needs to be reminded of a few things.....
1) Is the title of this blog entry itself
2) The terrorists are in such places as Yemen, parts of Pakistan & THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
3) ALL the terrorists either captured or killed before the assassination of Osama Bin Laden have all been in (Say it again Sam!) THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
4) OSAMA BIN LADEN IS DEAD (You said so yourself Chief!! Or was that a lie to inflate your poll numbers higher than they really are, Mr. President?)
All of which begs the following question.....
WHY IS THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION DEDICATED ON A LONG TERM DRAWDOWN INSTEAD OF AN IMMEDIATE ONE LIKE VIETNAM WAS IN 1975 ?????
He also needs to be reminded of the following things.....
1) The Christmas Day Bomber came from Yemen - NOT AFGHANISTAN
2) The Subway Bomber also did came from SOMEWHERE OTHER THAN AFGHANISTAN
3) Pakistan has been HARBORING Osama Bin Laden DESPITE THEIR CLAIMS OTHERWISE (In fact, he also had an address from MY OWN BACKYARD geographically speaking of course!)
WHY doesn't the President understand this? WHAT doesn't he understand about this? I don't get it. If you do, feel free to SHOOT ME AN EMAIL & clue me in
Inspired by Lawrence O'Donnell's "Rewrite" & Ed Schultz's "Takedown" segments, this is my attempt to right the wrongs of the Right Wing & try to decipher the morse code-like language which the Right Wing so eloquently speaks in a manner which the rest of us on Main Street can understand

FOLLOW UP - Why Americans SHOULD NOT Take The Law Into Their Own Hands
Here's the video of Ed Schultz's comment to the video posted below
BUT THE PLOT THICKENS !!!!!
Glenn Beck responded on his radio show (As you can see here since I the owners of the site won't let Political Pedophiles like me to embed it >:( *Grrrr!* ) by saying that he was REALLY pointing to a chalkboard EXCEPT the camera angle makes it look as though he's pointing at a monitor with President Obama's picture on it.
With that, I present the following still photo.....

Attack On LaborThe Big 10 Conference Connection
You've all seen & heard the news coming out of Ohio & Wisconsin, haven't you? Well here's what I think is behind it.....
NCAA Football
Yep! You heard me correctly. I said NCAA Football
Now HOW did I reach this "Radical" theory you ask? Simple.
It all started in Wisconsin (Home of the Wisconsin Badgers) as Governor Scott Walker (Eventually) RAMMED his UNION BUSTING JOB KILLING bill through state government. While Badger Country was in a state of political chaos, Ohio Governor (And former Fox News Host) John Kasich figured HE could "Slide" HIS union busting job killing bill through Ohio's legislature. Well he managed to do it (Mainly because the Progressive Democrats didn't have a snowball's chance in hell) but his bill goes too far as HE WENT AFTER POLICE, FIREFIGHTERS, EMS WORKERS & OTHER ESSENTIAL FIRST RESPONSE PERSONNEL in addition to teachers & other non-essential state employees.
As someone who has been in the WRONG end of MORE AMBULANCES THAN I CARE TO COUNT & spent more hours in MORE TRIPS TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM THAN I CARE TO COUNT (Including ONE WHICH SAVED MY LIFE I might add!), I was PISSED OFF!!
Now I feel fortunate I live here in Colorado (Which is primarily controlled by Democrats) & not in Ohio or Wisconsin, but still.....
Anyway, now Michigan Governor David Snyder is on the act & wants a piece of the action. That got me to noticing a pattern & wondering what sort of tricks the Republicans were up to in attempting to create YET ANOTHER belt for themselves & their rich friends.
Well I didn't have to go very far to look. In fact, I didn't need to look any further than Wikipedia (You know, the OTHER Wiki-based site that DOES NOT turn national secrets into dirty laundry). What I found was STAGGERINGLY MINDBLOWING.
Take a look.....

* Republicans control 7 of 9 states in BOTH the House & Senate with Illinois & Iowa being the lone Democratic strongholds (Iowa in the Senate ONLY) in the new Big 10 Conference & Nebraska being a Nonpartisan state in the legislative branch. Because of this, Nebraska was only counted in the state total but NOT counted in the seat total
Toss out Nebraska (Since they are the newest member to the conference & have a Nonpartisan State Legislature & Senate) & the Republicans STILL hold 6 of 8 states in the old Big 10 Conference with Illinois & Iowa being the lone Democrat strongholds
If THAT creating a new "Bible Belt", I dunno what is then.....

Time For The World To HATE Hate Speech
If you watched the latest episode of my show on Mevio & StickAM (Such as it admittedly was :) *Embarrassed Look* *LOL!*) last week, you saw me bring up the subject of HATE SPEECH.
Well I believe it bears repeating here.
Hate speech is (To quote former President George H.W. Bush when he introduced his Drug Czar to America) A SCOURGE which MUST be stamped out. Those who persist in engaging in it must also be stamped out as well.
How do we stamp out Hate Speech & those who persist in engaging it you ask? Simple.
DO NOT GIVE IT & THOSE WHO PERSIST IN ENGAGING IN IT THE TIME OF DAY. Just ignore it. Ignore those who persist in engaging in it too.
By doing this, you don't perpetuate it in your response. Not only that, but you deprive THE ONE THING those who persist in engaging in Hate Speech NEED in order to continue doing it - AN AUDIENCE.
As long as you respond to Hate Speech, you give those who persist in engaging in it an audience. By depriving them of an audience, you deprive them of the incentive to engage in it. Once they lose the incentive, they'll eventually move on to more constructive things.
It's not rocket science folks. IT IS COMMON SENSE.
That said, let me close with a discalimer - While I'm favor of FREE SPEECH, that belief DOES NOT extend to HATE SPEECH. There IS a difference between the two.
