Nick Kristof brings the obvious to light. I’m glad he’s doing it, because it’s only when something is in the non-blogging media is taken seriously. I just wish he’d done it sooner. It’s not only about protecting Muslims, it’s about protecting America.

MLK Day
Many liberal bloggers I’ve been reading today have been talking about Martin Luther King Jr.’s anti-Vietnam War speech. While topical, I still think his “I have a dream” speech is the ideal we should be striving for. Everything else will follow from that. “Let freedom ring. And when this happens, and when we allow freedom ring — when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God’s children — black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics…
Why Rumsfeld Shouldn’t Resign
There’s a petition on-line to get Rumsfeld to resign. Sign it because I think a partial victory is better than a total loss. However, I don’t think Rumsfeld should resign. He should be fired. Joho comes to a similar conclusion. My take has more to do with the honor of America. The President should defend it and his administration should live it. Rumsfeld was given the chance to resign and to help keep America’s honor; he chose not to. He’s said that America, the American ideal, is unimportant; raping and torturing people of color is what is important. If he…
Action Alert
Following email was sent to me by Taal (who has yet to do a direct post here, hint). Don’t have enough bandwidth right now to view the trailer directly, but thought this was interesting enough to share. ——– Dear Friends, We hope that you’re doing well. We’ve never really been the type to forward or sign online petitions or write mass emails. But we felt compelled to tell you about something that has deeply concerned us. Recently, we sat in a theater to watch Spiderman 2 and were shocked to see a trailer for an upcoming TNT program called ‘The…

Now what makes Mr. Kristol, and you, think that law enforcement isn’t paying attention to the Matt Hales and homegrown violent groups? That law enforcement is “too complacent” about homegrown threats? Because you don’t read about it daily in the news? I don’t like picking on the ignorant necessarily, but Kristol should have inquired first before reaching the conclusion he does.
Whoops — that’s “Kristof.” Such is the risk of trying to prepare breakfast for an antsy little boy and respond to blogs at the same time.
That Mr. Liberal of the NYT is so hot to encourage application of police state methods, already out of place in this baloney “war on terror,” to even more categories of offically designated “enemies of freedom” is frightful proof – if proof were needed – that Liberals are not interested in protecting American liberties or American rights from the ever more dangerous, bullying, and nosy state power we are so stupidly building.
We need to be encouraging the people and the government to back off and chill out. Not to extend their power further.
Remember, if those loons in the Militias can’t own weapons and train for possible battle against the government, neither can anybody else – though it will be a cold day in Hades when Mr. Liberal publicly insists the FBI watch the Nation of Islam like a hawk.
That is just what the Liberals want, actually. Complete civilian disarmament, the utter nakedness of the population, bare and defenseless against the ever-increasing police power of the state.
And what would Thomas Jefferson, the whole generation of the founders, and most political and legal scholars for all most all of our country’s history think of that?
PS. Think of this fathead’s evident glee over the government’s harassment of those racist fools the next time you see an article by him in the NYT casually condemning government surveillance of anti-war, Communist, and red-front groups during the Cold War, or the loyalty and security concerns of that time.
