 HOW DO WE ELECT DANGEROUS IDIOTS LIKE THIS?
The brain-dead, idiotic, disgusting, anti-American, childish, can't-get-over-it politician of the day is one Nelson Polite, a member of the Lancaster, Pennsylvania city council. Thankfully this jerk will rise no further up the political ladder. Even Democrats think he's a fool. Polite is upset because of David Stoltzfus who runs a baked goods stand at the local city market. Stoltzfus has a picture of President Bush hanging in the stand. Polite is a Democrat. Polite made a trip to visit Stoltzfus to tell him that he and other Lancaster Democrats are "offended" by the picture of President Bush, and he wants it taken down immediately. Stoltzfus told him no. Now Polite says he is going to ask for a new city ordinance that would make the posting of any political material, including a picture of the President of the United States on city property illegal. Polite says "there should be rules." Yeah ... in America there should be rules which prevent an American citizen from posting a picture of the President of the United States in his place of business. Where do people like Nelson Polite come from? Just in case you are someone who collects addresses of city council members from around the country, here's one you may be interested in. Mr. Nelson M.

TROOPS TAKE ON RUMSFELD
 The press is aghast today after a little episode Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld had yesterday while visiting the troops in Kuwait. The good secretary decided to take some questions from the floor, and the troops gave Rummy a run for his money. First question: "Why do we soldiers have to dig through local landfills for pieces of scrap metal and compromised ballistic glass to up-armor our vehicles?" Rumsfeld's reply: the Army is sparing no expense in trying to get all the armor it can, and besides an armored tank can still be blown up.
Then somebody asked about the stop-loss policy, where soldiers that were scheduled for retirement or to leave the service are kept on. Rumsfeld's response: "It's basically a sound principle, it's nothing new, it's been well understood. My guess is it will continue to be used as little as possible, but that it will continue to be used." He also said: "You go to war with the Army you have, not the Army you might want or wish to have." I'm sure that tweaked the left just a little.
Which is what a lot of people are forgetting. We are at war against an enemy. You fight, you kill, you win. You do what it takes. So what did Rumsfeld make of the question and answer session where he got grilled?
Later, he said "It's necessary for the Army to hear that, do something about it and see that everyone is treated properly." Good. No wonder Bush kept him on for a second term.
INSURGENTS GONE IN A YEAR
Iraq's Interim President Ghazi al-Yawar gave an interview to CNN yesterday. In it, he said that he sees no reason why the insurgents fighting in Iraq won't be gone in a year, saying "I think one year from now, exactly, we'll be very busy preparing for our free democratic election after we have a constitution." That doesn't square with the pessimistic view in the media that the war in Iraq is somehow a failure, now does it?
And what about the Vietnam comparisons? We've been hearing for almost 2 years now that Iraq is another Vietnam....a quagmire. No matter that the war in Vietnam lasted for decades and had 50 times more casualties. So the interim president also addressed that: "We're not fighting a Viet Cong, which has principles and popular support. We are fighting Saddam loyalists. ... They know they are fighting for a losing battle. The whole Iraqi population is against them. I'm sick and tired of them." Doesn't sound like they'll last too long, does it?
So how long are American troops going to stay? Until enough Iraqis are trained to replace them. Sounds like things are going pretty well in Iraq, doesn't it? That's right, they are. Remember when people said tens of thousands of U.S. troops would die in the fall of Baghdad? It didn't happen. Remember when people said the transfer of sovereignty would never take place? It happened early. Interim Constitution? Agreed upon.
Elections? They'll happen next month, right on time. Looks like the Bush-haters are going to have to find a new line of work. THE TALKMASTER --- LOOKING OUT FOR YOUR NADS  Hey, guys. You may not want to use your laptop as a laptop. Some scientific journal named Human Reproduction is reporting that the heat generated by laptop computers can cook the boys ... and may lead to infertility. There is a reason, my friends, why us guys usually sit with our feet further apart then do our lady friends. It's basically the same reason that ... and let me try to be somewhat careful here ... it's basically the same reason that men carry certain equipment on the outside of our 98.6 degree bods rather than safely tucked away on the inside with our kidneys and gizzards and such. So --- not only do the laptops generate heat, by holding our knees together to form the necessary lap compounds the situation. Keep 'em spread, boys ... unless, that is, you don't care all that much about reproducing.
BAN PIT BULLS This time it happened in Orlando. A 4-year-old boy is now dead after a relative's pit bull chomped down on his head. Don't give me that BS about these pit bulls being just dandy if they're raised right. It's in their blood line. They're killers. They're bred to attack and to kill. No one owner, no matter how wonderful, is going to erase the vicious blood lust out of these dogs. My friend Bugsy ... who unfortunately lives in Grand Rapids, Michigan where rock-n-roll seems to be king ... says that these "damned psycho animals should be banned from being ANYWHERE other than prison yards." Good line Bugs. 'Bout time. SAY WHAT? Scott Peterson's mom took the stand yesterday in the penalty phase of his murder trial. Now I know that she's distressed over the thought of her son being executed, but what's with this "If you execute my son it will be as if Lacy never lived." stuff? How does this work? If you execute a killer it's as if his victim never lived at all? It's been a long time since I practiced law ... but this I just do not understand. READING ASSIGNMENTS
