  • The Great American Pro-Illegal Alien Boycott Hatefest - I'll be at work Monday. I plan on doing my weekly grocery shopping on Monday. I will plan on doing other consumer spending Monday. Friday I visited my local Party City and Michael's Craftstore and picked up patriotic bunting, streamers,...

  • United 93 - not soon enough - On April 25 at the Tribeca Film festival, United 93 premiered. I find it surprising that such a film is, in any way, controversial. As intense and emotionally wrenching the trailers, I was taken aback by the almost hysterical...

  • And this... - Yesterday was also Armenian Martyr's Day. DuringWWI the newly installed "democratic" government of Kemal Attaturk carried out a systematic extermination of Christian Armenians for many of the same reasons that the Jews were persecuted by the Nazis. Take a moment...
  • Remember - It's not on the front page of any newspaper on my desk this morning. It's not in the entire Toronto-area Metro commuter paper. It's not on Google News's front page. But in case it slipped your mind, today is Holocaust...

  • Introducing Hot Air! - Michelle Malkin, nationally syndicated columnist, best-selling author and Blog Diva has launched a fabulous new project: Hot air. It's the world’s first full-service conservative Internet broadcast network! Michelle says she formed Hot Air to bring ideological diversity to the video...
  • Why would you let the government set the value of your friendship? - While reviewing a rather hilarious collection of blogging posts offered within the liturgy of "Blog against Heteronomativity" (more later after my sides stop aching) a little tidbit from Maia in New Zealand got my attention, but not in the way...
  • Spread the Word Post - Must IV coffee first- lots! Hubby did a pretty good job holding down the fort while I was at the Milblogging conference. Let’s just say, I still have my housework cut out for me today, but the garage is clean...

  • Always Remember Them - I was listening to the radio today when it asked, "What were you doing 11 years ago today?" I remember...do you? Eleven years ago I was 8 months pregnant, and spent the day at home with my two toddlers...actually, with...
  • Tragedy strikes Iraq the Model - Iraq the Model has been fairly quiet recently, and now we know why: Last week our little and peaceful family was struck by the tragic loss of one of its members in a savage criminal act of assassination. The member...

  • Democrat Slogan Contest? - I just got a spam e-mail from Tom Vilsack, Democratic governor of Iowa, and I presume a future presidential candidate. Don't ask me how I got on his mailing list, I have no earthly idea. But apparently his PAC has...
  • An insulting inconsistency - So it's okay to wander into the United States if you are an undocumented, un-educated, non-english-speaking Mexican, and you can bring your wife and 9 hungry children, too. You can apply to be a citizen, you can live off the...

Monday 17 April 2006

  • The Great Divide - I just finished reading The Great Divide: The Failure of Islam and the Triumph of the West by Alvin J. Schmidt. That subtitle is a bit misleading, actually. In the eyes of God, Islam is a definite failure, but throughout...

  • Final Salute - They are the troops that nobody wants to see, carrying a message that no military family ever wants to hear. It begins with a knock at the door. Ok, I'm tired and there's no way I can do justice...
  • Child molesters on Blogger - This is INFURIATING. Just read it at The Jawa Report, because I'm way too pissed to type. And click the damn FLAG button on those Blogger/Blogspot sites!...

Tuesday 11 April 2006

  • Crime in the UK: London vs. New York - We know, from the example of Guiliani's New York, how to reduce crime in a major urban center like London. It seems that the Labour government is not interested in following that lead.

Monday 10 April 2006

  • You Can't Please Everyone - Thank y'all for the warm Cotillion welcome. I now feel obligated to blog with a bra & makeup! It has been a bumpy first week as some are not thrilled about my joining. Well too stinking bad - I am...
  • Earth to the Media: - Is anyone listening? If you read this: Top secret memoranda sent to Al-Kadisseiya Military branch No.2205 dated 04/03/2001 and to the Headquarters of Zee karr military branch No. 246 dated: 08/03/2001 that we were informed by another memo from Ali...

  • Double Standards? - I actually wandered by Michelle Malkin's site today looking for updates on the NASCAR/NBC story, and instead started to read this story, about a young college student, John Hehman, in New York who was apparently chased into traffic (he later...
  • British Losing Faith in Police and Courts - A follow up to the post on the UK letting criminals off without even appearing in court. Muggings go unreported in despair at police | the Daily Mail 58% of muggings are never reported to police. That would make the...

  • How to Defend Against Domestic Violence - Murder Brings Attention To Domestic Violence [Cross Posted at TFS Magnum] Arkansas has a problem. Domestic violence murders are up. But no one - in the media or in the victimization industry at least - wants to talk about self-defense....

Wednesday 5 April 2006

  • Nail Yale - If you read anything today, READ THIS. Yale has refused to acknowledge that its decision to admit an official of the Taliban, a brutal, nightmarish regime with which America is still at war, was a drastic mistake in judgment. The...

Monday 3 April 2006

  • How do we solve a problem like Moussaoui? - Do we kill him, or let him live? If Zacarias Moussaoui is given life in prison instead of death, he may do a good deal of harm with the time he has left. It's obvious that prison inmates are apt...

  • Doing the jobs Americans don't want to do - I'm torn on this immigration thing in the US right now. All this waving of Mexican flags and the banning of the American flag in a Colorado school really gets my blood boiling, and makes me want to stand with...
