Official Slavery Apology passed in VA

Evidently, President Clinton's apology for slavery wasn't enough for the great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great grandchildren of former slaves and for those who are still enraged by the past. Luckily, Virginia's lawmakers have sought to rectify the lingering air of hostility by passing this new resolution. They graciously added the American Indians to the resolution also. So now we can finally lay this whole nasty business of slavery to rest once and for all. Right?

Chapman still in the Dog House

A court recently disapproved Duane "Dog" Chapman's request for a stay of extradition to our ass hat neighbors to the south. I watched an A&E special, again, about the situation Dog and his family face hoping to get some more information at the end of the show. Both Dog and his wife were very cryptic and I was disappointed they did not get into specifics. If you need some background on this here is a previous post. The Dog It is shameful that Condoleeza Rice hasn't, in the most diplomatic way possible, told the Mexican government (paid off by Andrew Luster, no doubt) to go shit in a hat. Although the charge of "illegal detention" is a minor crime in Mexico, with a penalty of a few hundred dollars, I don't want to take the risk of The Dog incurring the maximum penalty of 4 years in a Mexican pisshouse, err, jail. The effects of the corruption in Mexico are rivaled only by the explosive diarrhea one gets after eating the roadside tacitoes. Either way,

Obama bama mo mamma

For a while the young, up-and-coming Senator from Illinois gave me a reason to vote for the dementia that is the Democratic party. I like Giulliani; he did some good with his broken window project of NYC and I admire his efforts in 2001 when his city became the focal point for our war on terror. I don’t know much about his politics, mainly because I haven’t taken the time to Google them. I expect, however, that they will align fairly close to my own. McCain has military service, and is a war hero at that, and he has some good ideas on how to handle our troops; but his illegal immigration stance doesn’t do it for me. There are some other presidential hopefuls but they are just political chaff. So, back to Obama. I wondered how long it would take before his name would be used in some clever pun to describe the Senator’s political views. And I was right. Hat tip to Power Line for the coined phrase "Obamanations", used to describe the verbal slip-ups the greenhorn Senator has mad

Watada's Cowardice given mistrial

Army 1st Lt Watada has dodged another bullet when a jusdge declared a mistrial yesterday. The leftists and family members of this coward are jumping for joy over the decision. Why did the judge declare it a mistrial? Jury tampering? Prosecution pulled an O.J.? Nope. Watada claims he did not understand a piece of paper that he signed had him going to Iraq. He is now playing the "I'm too stupid to read what I sign" card. What are they teaching people at University of Hawaii, Watada's alma mater. The list of people that rushed to his defense reads like a Moonbat Who's Who: 1. University of Illinois Law Professor, Frances Boyle During a visit to Hawaii, urged Native Hawaiians to emulate the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO). The speaking tour was co-sponsored by the State of Hawaii Office of Hawaiian Affairs. Boyle has also worked as an attorney for both the PLO and the Chechen rebel "government." What's next professor- asking locals to emulate A

10 Foods for a Good Night’s Sleep

10 Foods for a Good Night’s Sleep If you are having trouble falling asleep and NOT attached to a nuclear submarine where drills, training, and other sleep depravation techniques are commonly used, or the parent of a teething 6-month old, then try these foods and leave the sheep alone. Bananas. Bananas contain magnesium to relax muscles, and also melatonin and serotonin as well. Warm milk. Mom was right — the amino-acid tryptophan found in milk acts like a sedative, and the calcium helps the body use it. Potatoes. Potatoes cancel out the acids that can interfere with snooze-inducing tryptophan. Chamomile tea. A long-time staple of teas formulated for drinking before bedtime, chamomile acts as a mild sedative. Oatmeal. Oats are rich in melatonin — and are filling, so as to tide you over during your journey through the land of Nod. Cheddar cheese. A wedge of cheddar cheese is also rich in tryptophan. Honey. A bit of honey to sweeten tea or warm milk will help your brain switch off o

The making of an insurgent

I came across this video while I was searching for insurgents getting their asses handed to them by savvy and deadly accurate Marines. I then found videos of insurgent snipers video taping their targets and i got really pissed off; after seeing this insurgent indoctrination video I calmed down a bit. This video is shocking and was taped by an American soldier stationed at a watch tower.
