This is an example...

...of why the folk in the bog are fans of the Celestial Junk Blog. The Junker doess it again...

It never ceases to amaze me how insidious the Mainstream Media’s power is in shaping our view of the world...



The fact that Iraq in the midst of the greatest economic boom in Middle Eastern history, where small business people (that’s ordinary civilians) are the benefactors is ignored. The fact that three cultural groups who’d rather be killing each other are working out mature and difficult compromises is ignored. The fact that poll after poll shows Iraqis to be more optimistic than North Americans, is ignored. The fact that the vast majority of Iraqis live without fear of violence, is ignored. The fact that the Kurdish north is now so secure that tourism is a major industry, is ignored. The fact that Iraqi forces are now in charge of many of Iraq’s major cities, without any coalition support, is ignored. The fact that Sunni’s are now fully part of the democratic process, is ignored. The fact that Iraq is the only Arab country to enjoy fully representative democracy, is ignored. The fact that Iraqis have rejected a theocracy, and opted for a compromise government, is ignored. The fact that American military re-enlistment rates are at an all time high, is ignored. The fact that American military morale in Iraq is very high, is ignored. The fact that terrorist activity in Iraq is steadily declining, is ignored. The fact that local tribal leaders within the Sunni triangle, in cooperation with Iraqi "resistance" fighters have organized to expel Osama’s thugs, is ignored.


Go and read the whole thing. The frog is having one of those days when everything that he wants to say has already been said with much more grace and eloquence the the Green Guy can muster.

Treason and Hypocrisy, the MSM's Stock in Trade

Surprise! The same insufferable MSM moonbats who wouldn't publish the tepid Danish cartoons lest they offend Muslims are running with the opportunity to shove more Abu Ghraib pictures in everyone's face — knowing full well that such pictures have minimal news value at this point but continue to constitute a valuable recruitment tool for Islamic terrorists.

America Gored again...
JOSEP FARAH - BETWEEN THE LINES
WORLD NET DAILY NEWS

What would you say about a former vice president of the United States, a candidate for the presidency, who lies about "terrible abuses" against Arabs by his country while addressing an audience in Saudi Arabia?

That's what Al Gore did last weekend. And he did it during a time in which the Arab and Muslim world is already enflamed against the U.S. and the West because of the Muhammad cartoons.

What would I say about Al Gore? How would I characterize him? Here's what I would say in a wholesome forum like this:

He's irresponsible.

He's a traitor to his country.

He's a congenital liar who wouldn't know the truth if it bit him on the backside.

He's an enemy of the American people.

He's unworthy of American citizenship, let alone the high offices he has held and aspired to hold.

He needs a keeper.

He's producing enough hot air to make his doomsday predictions about global warming a self-fulfilling prophecy.

He's one coconut short of a pina colada.

Gore actually claimed Arabs had been "indiscriminately rounded up" and held in "unforgivable" conditions following Sept. 11.

"The thoughtless way in which visas are now handled, that is a mistake," Gore said during the Jiddah Economic Forum. "The worst thing we can possibly do is to cut off the channels of friendship and mutual understanding between Saudi Arabia and the United States."

GO AND READ THE WHOLE THING. THEN TAKE SOMETHING 'OVER-THE-COUNTER' FOR HEARTBURN!!!

Ann Coulter...

...may not say it all, but she says a whole bunch.

After an Egyptian ferry capsized recently, killing hundreds of passengers, a whole braying mob of passengers' relatives staged an organized attack on the company, throwing furniture out the window and burning the building to the ground. Witnesses say it was the most violent ocean liner-related incident since Carnival Cruise Lines fired Kathie Lee Gifford.



The "offense to Islam" ruse is merely an excuse for Muslims to revert to their default mode: rioting and setting things on fire. These people have a serious anger management problem.



So it's not exactly a scoop that Muslims are engaging in violence. A front-page story would be "Offended Muslims Remain Calm."



What is stunning about this spectacle is that their violence is working. With a few exceptions, the media won't show the cartoons that incited mass violence around the globe (cartoons available at www.anncoulter.com). And yet, week after week, American patriots endure "The Boondocks" without complaint. Where's the justice here?

It's been several months...

...Vice President Dick Cheney, as you all are aware from the Beltway press corps' incessant flapping and yapping, was involved in an accidental shooting during a weekend quail hunting trip in Texas. The victim is recovering.


It's the me-me-media hyperventilators who need intensive care.


Peacock Network News correspondent David Gregory, whose self-absorption rivals the leading brand of paper towels, threw a snit fit over the 18-hour delay in public disclosure of the incident. His exchange on Monday with White House press secretary Scott McClellan was a walking advertisement for beta blockers.


McClellan: "David, hold on, the cameras aren't on right now. You can do this later."


Gregory: "Don't accuse me of trying to pose to the cameras. Don't be a jerk to me personally when I'm asking you a serious question."


McClellan: "You don't have to yell."


Gregory: "I will yell! If you want to use that podium to try to take shots at me personally, which I don't appreciate, then I will raise my voice, because that's wrong!"

McClellan: "Calm down, Dave, calm down."


Gregory: "I'll calm down when I feel like calming down!"


Funny thing is, I can't recall the mainstream media melting down over the 30-hour delay -- presided over by Hillary Clinton, according to internal records -- in releasing the late White House counsel Vincent Foster's suicide note to authorities and her own husband. Can you?

Federalist...

Number One


Among the most formidable of the obstacles which the new Constitution will have to encounter may readily be distinguished the obvious interest of a certain class of men in every State to resist all changes which may hazard a diminution of the power, emolument, and consequence of the offices they hold under the State establishments; and the perverted ambition of another class of men, who will either hope to aggrandize themselves by the confusions of their country, or will flatter themselves with fairer prospects of elevation from the subdivision of the empire into several partial confederacies than from its union under one government.
