Observations: What else would a lawyer hired by ACORN find but that no laws were violated?

What? A winner of the Medal of Honor prohibited from flying the flag he was defending when he won the award? How absurd

A Georgia killer got tired of waiting and did the job himself. Good for him.

History, Beatle John Lennon was killed in by a crazed fan in New York on this day in 1980

Adam Lambert - I have not cared for him from the time he massacred “Ring of Fire” on American Idol. So he does not like country music. That part didn’t bother me. But mocking the music of my ancestors by such a repulsive rendition of a country classic was completely out of line.

Now we find that everything about him is out of line. His vulgar display at the American Music Awards leaves no doubt of his part in the cultural destruction of our society. There are many people who are determined to destroy our culture for one reason or another. Lambert is clearly doing his part.

The past great societies were destroyed the same way. The classic Greek culture fell to massive degradation of its social and sexual morays. The same thing happened to the Roman empire. Greek pottery designed with blatantly sexual motifs, including depictions of homosexual activity, and the sexually explicit wall paintings and statuary in Pompeii make this clear.

I have no problem with sexuality. We are sexual animals. But we need to keep our sexuality private. I have always considered my sex life, or lack of it as the case may be, to be a private matter between myself and anyone with home I may or may not be involved. The same goes for my sexual orientation. It is no body’s business if I am heterosexual homosexual, bisexual, monosexual or asexual.

Nor do I care to know about your sex life. I assume most of you have one. But I prefer that you keep it to yourself. And that includes Adam Lambert.

UGA VII died and that is a sad thing. UGA football lost to lowly Kentucky and that is a sad thing. The bulldog nation is very low this morning.

But we need a little reality here. In Washington D.C. the Senate democrats voted to start legislation on the greatest crime ever imposed on the American people. Government will steal trillions of dollars from its citizens just to fund the egos of the left wing elitists. At the same time, they are assuring the total collapse of our economic system.

Compared to this outrage, the loss of a nice dog and a football game are insignificant.

The radical Muslim terrorist are not common gangsters. They do not deserve the protections of our civil court system. I strongly oppose the plan to bring them to New York and try them in federal court.

This is war. Those who use terror to attack our nation are war criminals and should be kept outside the borders of our nation and subjected to a military tribunal. Bringing them into the federal court system will only give them greater opportunities to subject this nation to ever greater terror and humiliation.

Closing Gitmo is another bad idea. The facilities there are superior to any prison such people would be subjected to by any other nation. And it clearly limits the ability of these war criminals to inflict more damage to the U.S. and the world.

Keep Gitmo open and keep these terrorist off American soil!

Obama in Red

Free enterprise is strong in China. Thousands of local merchants are, or were making big profits selling hats and t shirts showing President Obama in a Red Chinese Army uniform. The Chinese government put a stop to it because it violated their laws on abusing the army’s uniform.

But where is the protest from the U.S. Government? This is a major insult to the U.S. Military, especially in lite of Obama’s absurdly slow decision on providing the necessary forces for the US. Commanders to do the job assigned to them in Afghanistan.

I don’t think the president should be making the current trip. He is not ready to deal with the issues in that area, especially the growing trade deficit and the expanding debt we now owe to China. He needs to be in Washington working on programs that will actually produce jobs in this country, not making promises that will cause even more unemployment.

The eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month was when the agreements were signed ending World War One. It was later adapted as a day to honor the veterans who won that war, and then all veterans. But it was not always properly celebrated. After the Viet Nam conflict, many veterans were scorned and vilified by left leaning politicians and media types. It is a very good thing that on this veterans day, the sacrifices of the Viet Nam Veterans is fully recognized and their standing among the defenders of this nation is put on an equal footing with the heroes of all other wars.

Why he didn’t go

Our President was invited to attend the 20^th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. He refused to go. After some rather intense criticism, he sent over a video address for the celebration.

Do you remember Obama’s campaign rally in Germany? A vast crowd came out to greet him. He was haled as a new savior of the world. He rewarded this welcome by turning his back on the most significant event in recent German history. Why?

Look as the list of heads of state who were present. All 27 leaders of the Europe Union were there. Former Soviet leader Gorbachev was there. He was accompanied by Russian President Dmitry Medvedev. But Obama could not be bothered. He sent our Secretary of State to an event where dozens of heads of state were present.

First thoughts on the Ft. Hood attack:

Military training is a balancing act between learning to kill and developing powerful self control. Preliminary reports from Ft. Hood indicate that an army officer, highly trained on a large number of weapons, staged the attack that has killed 12 people and injured another 31. Reports are that he used two handguns.

It would take a special weapon to be able to deliver that kind of volume of fire, especially in a hand gun. The shooter would have to have multiple magazines and have them prepared for quick reload. That requires advanced preparation.

As a former member of the U.S. Army, I can tell you that soldiers on post do not walk around with weapons in their hands. Their assigned weapons are kept locked in racks in a locked arms room at all times unless they are being prepared for actual exercises.

It is my opinion that this could not have been a spur of the moment action. The shooter made carefully preparation for the attack. His victims were likely unarmed. They were in an assembly location and were “sitting ducks” for the attacker.

These soldiers prepare themselves to go into combat to defend this nation. I cannot think of a greater crime than to stage an attack of this type where they have no opportunity to defend themselves. I extend my full sympathy and my prayers to the service people and their families devastated by this attack.
