RAPID RESPONSE (Archives)...Daily Commentary on News of the Day
This is a new section.  It will offer fresh, quick reactions by myself to news and events of the day, day by day, in this rapid-fire world of ours.  Of course, as in military campaigns, a rapid response in one direction may occasionally have to be followed by a "strategic withdrawal" in another direction.  Charge that to "the fog of war", and to the necessary flexibility any mental or military campaign must maintain to be effective.  But the mission will always be the same: common sense, based upon facts and "real politick", supported by a visceral sense of Justice and a commitment to be pro-active.  That's all I promise.

Please see the Editorial in The Day (www.theday.com), April 24, 2014, entitled "Court Ruling Threatens To Divide Us", and relating to "affirmative action".

The 10th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution was not just a throw-away after-thought of the Founding Fathers, but rather a bed-rock principle of the Republic.  Furthermore, this country is currently in political gridlock as it should be, given the great chasm between the crazy far-Left and even moderate Conservative principles.  In fact, I believe that - if we did not have the safety valve of individual States' rights, initiatives and experimentation - we might well be witnessing a great deal of civil disobedience...or worse.

<>THE BUSH FAMILY DYNASTY: STILL CONTRIBUTING. 

Within a few days of each other, the brothers Bush have offered the nation and the Republican Party two ways out of their current political morass.  Jeb Bush has offered a sane and humane approach to Immigration as a substitute for the inane "amnesty" reflex of too many.  And George W. Bush, in his comments for the 50th anniversary of LBJ's civil rights acts, has placed the responsibility for the continued plight of our Black brothers squarely on Education - or the lack of it for them.  Embrace these two problems with solutions...and both the nation and the Republican Party will be much better off. 

Thank you, gentlemen.

Reflecting… This is all factually (and historically) correct -- and verifiable if one would decide to do some research toward that end… if you even go back further… in 732 AD the Moslem Army which was moving on Paris was defeated and turned back at Tours, France, by Charles Martell.

… in 1571 AD the Moslem Army / Navy was defeated by the Italians and Austrians as they tried to cross the Mediterranean to attack southern Europe in the Battle of Lapanto.

… in 1683 AD the Turkish Moslem Army, attacking Eastern Europe, was finally defeated in the Battle of Vienna by German and Polish Christian Armies.

… this crap has been going on for 1,400 years and half of these damn politicians don't even know it!  If these battles had not been won we might be speaking Arabic and Christianity could be non - existent; Judaism certainly would be... And let us not forget that Hitler was an admirer of Islam and that the Mufti of Jerusalem was Hitler's guest in Berlin and raised Bosnian Muslim SS Divisions: the 13th and 21st Waffen SS Divisions who killed Jews, Russians, Gypsies, and any other "subhumans".

Reflecting A lot of Americans have become so insulated from reality that they imagine that America can suffer defeat without any inconvenience to themselves.

Pause a moment, reflect back.  These events are actual events from history. They really happened!  Do you remember?

1.In 1968 , Bobby Kennedy was shot and killed by a Muslim male.
2. In 1972 at the Munich Olympics, athletes were kidnapped and massacred by  Muslim males.
3. In 1972 a Pan Am 747 was hijacked and eventually diverted to Cairo where a fuse was lit on final approach and it was blown up shortly after landing by Muslim males.
4. In 1973 a Pan Am 707 was destroyed in Rome, with 33 people killed, when it was attacked with grenadesby Muslim males.
5. In 1979, the US embassy in Iran was taken over by Muslim males.
6. During the 1980's a number of Americans were kidnapped in Lebanon by Muslim males.
7. In 1983, the US Marine barracks in Beirut was blown up by Muslim males.
8. In 1985, the cruise ship Achille Lauro was hijacked and a 70 year old American passenger was murdered and thrown overboard in his wheelchair by Muslim males.
9. In 1985, TWA flight 847 was hijacked at Athens, and a US Navy diver trying to rescue passengers was murdered by Muslim males.
10. In 1988, Pan Am Flight 103 was bombed by Muslim males.
11. In 1993, the World Trade Center was bombed the first time by Muslim males.
12. In 1998, the US embassies in Kenya and Tanzania were bombed by Muslim males.
13. On 9/11/01, four airliners were hijacked; two were used as missiles to take down the World Trade Centers and of the remaining two, one crashed into the US Pentagon and the other was diverted and crashed by the passengers. Thousands of people were killed by Muslim males.
14. In 2002, the United States fought a war in Afghanistan against Muslim males.
15. In 2002, reporter Daniel Pearl was kidnapped and beheaded by -- you guessed it -- Muslim males.
16. In 2013, Boston Marathon Bombing 4 Innocent people including a child killed, 264 injured by Muslim males.

No, I really don't see a pattern here to justify profiling, do you?  So, to ensure we Americans never offend anyone, particularly fanatics intent on killing us, airport security screeners will no longer be allowed to profile certain people.

<Absolutely No Profiling!  They must conduct random searches of 80-year-old women, little kids, airline pilots with proper identification, secret agents who are members of the President's security detail, 85-year old Congressmen with metal hips, and Medal of Honor winner and former Governor Joe Foss, but leave Muslim Males, alone lest they be guilty of profiling.<>

Have the American people completely lost their Minds, or just their Power of Reason?<>

Let's send this to as many people as we can so that the Gloria Allreds and other stupid attorneys along with Federal Justices who want to thwart common sense, feel ashamed of themselves -- if they have any such sense.

Brain transplant needed
 
HOSPITAL VISIT

In the hospital where a family member lay gravely ill, the relatives gathered in the waiting room.    Finally, the doctor came in looking tired and somber. "I'm afraid I'm the bearer of bad news," he said as he surveyed the worried faces. "The only   hope left for your loved one at this time is a brain transplant. It's an experimental procedure,    very risky, but it is the only hope.  Insurance will cover the procedure, but you will have to pay   for the BRAIN."

The family members sat silent as they absorbed the news. After a time, someone asked, "How  much will a brain cost?"

The doctor quickly responded, "$5,000 for a Democrat's brain; $200 for a Republican's brain."

The moment turned awkward. Some of the Democrats actually had to try not to smile, avoiding eye contact with the Republicans. A man unable to control his curiosity, finally blurted out the question everyone wanted to ask, "Why is the Democrat's brain so much more   than a Republican's brain?" The doctor smiled at the childish innocence and explained to the entire group, "It's just   standard pricing procedure. We have to price the Republicans' brains a lot lower because they're used."


"Any man who thinks he can be happy and prosperous by letting the Government take care of him; better take a closer look at the American Indian."

SEEMS "FAIR AND BALANCED" TO ME, ALSO A VETERAN.

GS

A movement has been started by our armed forces to get out the vote in 2014. They are organizing themselves, but this can be done by all of us. The President, the Commander in Chief, has made the Rules of Engagement (ROE) so difficult, that our troops are often killed before they can even get permission to fight. Nothing has been done to stop our troops from being murdered by the Afghans they are training, either.

Now, the President wants the US to sign on to the UNs International Criminal Court (ICC), which would allow the UN's ICC to arrest and try US troops for War Crimes, without the legal protections guaranteed under US Law, and from which there is no appeal. The President, with his Democratic control of the Senate, has nearly all the power. If the Non-Establishment Republicans, and Conservatives, can take back the Senate in 2014, our troops can once again be protected from unnecessary danger.

Interestingly enough, when GWB was president you heard about the military deaths in Iraq  and Afghanistan almost daily.  With Obama in the White House, the mainstream media has been strangely quiet. ---

More than 1,000  American soldiers have lost their lives in Afghanistan  in  the last 27  months. This is more than the combined total of the nine years before.  Thirty have  died in August.   During the last month, over 50 additional NATO and US  servicemen have been murdered, inside jobs by those who are hired to be a force for good in Afghanistan.

The commander  in chief is AWOL. Not a peep, although he ordered the White House flag flown at half-staff for the Sikhs that were killed.  There is a deep disgust,  a fury, growing in the  ranks of the military against the indifferent  incompetence of this president.

It has taken on  a dangerous tone. No one knows what to do about him, but the anger runs deep  as the deaths continue with no strategic end in sight to the idiocy of this  war.  Obama has had 4 years to end this futile insanity, during which time he has vacationed,  golfed, campaigned, and generally ignored the plight   of our men and women in uniform.  But, there is  now a  movement afoot in the armed services to launch a  massive get out the  vote drive against this president.

Not just  current active duty types, but the National Guard, Reserves,  the retired,  and all other prior service members. This is no small special interest  group, but many millions of veterans who can have an enormous impact on the  outcome of the November election if they all  respond.

The one million military retirees in Florida alone could mean an overwhelming victory in that state if they all show up at the polls. It might not keep another one  hundred U.S. troops from dying between now and November, but a turn out to vote by the military against this heart breaking lack of leadership can make  a powerful statement  that hastens a change to the indifference of this shallow little man who just lets our soldiers die.

And another issue is the 131 General officers that have been fired or "early retired" by this hate-the-military administration!!! He and his vindictive mate are trying to kill our military while establishing their own "loyal" organization of "enforcers"... who may soon come knocking on our doors.
