THE FACE OF ISLAMIC TERROR

The Brits continue to unravel the second unsuccessful terrorist plot to blow up more trains and buses.  More arrests have been made, including the arrest of the Islamic goon responsible for at least one failed attempt.  Also, ABC News is reporting that the plot for the July 7 bombings may have been larger, after 16 unexploded devices were found in one of the attacker's trunks. Imagine if 16 more bombs had gone off in the name of Allah.  Yikes. Islam!  What a wonderful religion!

And just what made up these delightful little bombs?  They were homemade using common household products like peroxide. Some of them contained nails for shrapnel.  Why nails?  That's so that when the bomb explodes, the nails go with it, killing more people and expanding the device's reach.  It's not enough to blow up the train or bus...these Islamic killers want more blood in the form of the shredding of innocent people.   Isn't it amazing that more people haven't converted to this wonderful, peace-loving religion?

In finding this car so quickly after the 7/7 bombings, the London cops seem to have stopped a second wave of attacks. This is the take-no-prisoners style of anti-terrorism policing the entire world could learn from.  There's no appeasement going on in Britain these days, that's for sure.

How hard would it be for some America-hating jihadist in your neighborhood to cook up one of these bombs, fill it with nails, stick it in a knapsack and head for the nearest bus?  Sadly, not very.  In fact, I believe it's certain to happen.  That's why we are engaged in World War IV, the War on Terror. ----- Or as the Bush Administration likes to call it these days "the fight against Islamic extremism."

THE NEW NAME FOR THE WAR ON TERROR

I just mentioned it.  The Bush Administration is now calling the war on terror the "fight against Islamic extremism."  At first I was bothered by this change ... I thought it might be pandering to the BBC and other leftist outlets that don't like the "e" word.  I've changed my mind.  The new title at least identifies the enemy as Islamic.  Even though I've tried to include the "Islamic" word with the "terrorist" word on this website and on the air .. .the media generally doesn't follow that formula.  Let's never stop identifying the enemy for who and what they are .. and who and what they are is ISLAMIC.

By the way ... when are we going to start the profiling?

AMERICA STUCK IN IRAQ?

The clueless media has a new poll out today about Iraq.  This one comes to us from USA Today/CNN and Gallup.  The poll says Americans don't believe the U.S. will win the war in Iraq or establish a stable Democracy there.  Unfortunately, this poll demonstrates one thing: the brainwashing propaganda from the Democrats and from the left seems to be working.

What a wonderful comfort this must be to the Islamic terrorists of the world.  Surely the word will reach Saddam .. and bring about another big grin.

This may come as a bit of a surprise to some, but the United States has already won the war in Iraq, and we have already established a stable Democracy there...all in record time and with very low casualties.  By any measure of modern warfare, the invasion and occupation of Iraq has been a resounding success.  Yet, for some reason, people are choosing to believe the Bush-bashing doom and gloom scenarios reported on the evening news.  I guess we have government schools to thank for that lack of critical thinking on the part of the masses.

There is one bright spot in the poll....it finds that people don't believe sending troops to Iraq was a mistake.  So let me get this straight...the war was a failure, we can't win...but sending the troops wasn't a mistake.  Right. Oh, and to get an idea of just how slanted this poll is against the Bush administration, get a load of this question: "Do you think the Bush administration deliberately misled the American public about whether Iraq has weapons of mass destruction?"  Fifty-one percent said yes.  That's too bad.  By the way, did you know weapons of mass destruction were found in Iraq?

TO MY LISTENERS IN CHATTANOOGA

What's up with WGOW?  Sorry, don't know.  To the hundreds of listeners who have emailed me .. and the the people who have been writing letters to the editor and to Chattanoogan.com ... Sorry, I just can't explain it.  My ratings outperformed the entire radio station.  Evidently I've done or said something that really got under the skin of WGOW management.  That's happened before .. but listener outrage and complaints usually cause a change of heart.   We're constantly adding stations across the country, and the latest ratings have us going up while other talk show hosts are going down ... but you just can't explain the actions of some programmers.  Well ... there's always Internet streaming. 

YOU GOTTA LOVE THIS!

Just a quick note to you sad, pathetic drug addicts out there ... you weed fiends --- you cigarette smokers.  Beginning this month employees of the State of Georgia are paying $40 a month extra for their health insurance plan for government employees.  This includes all state workers, including family members, and their family members.  Good!  These pathetic smokers increase the cost of health insurance for everyone else.  It's only right that they should pay more to cover the costs of their mindless and disgusting habit.  One employee was heard to complain that single mothers have decided to drop health insurance rather than pay the surcharge.  Isn't that just great!  They would rather drop health insurance that covers their children than quit smoking.  Do you really need any further evidence of the intellectual failings of smokers?

THE ARISTOCRATS JOKE

There's a movie coming out this summer named "The Aristocrats." [trailer]  The entire movie is apparently about one joke that comics like to tell each other.  It's describes as absolutely horrific ... a joke that will undoubtedly offend the vast majority of people who have heard it.  OK ... so what's the joke? I'm not sure ... but may I be so bold as to proffer a guess here before the movie comes out?  OK ... I'm not going to tell it here.  But it may be that certain joke I heard years ago ... and have only repeated on rare occasions, and never on the air.  Let's just say it involves a few individuals sitting in a hot tub.  So ... let's see if I'm right.

Update:  OK .. I was wrong.  It's about It's about hamsters. OK ... never mind. It's about a bicycle.  Oh well .. whatever. It isn't funny.

HEATHER'S CORNER

Some musings from our intern Heather Jackson

Love for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration

Many people think the space program is a waste of time and money. I would venture to say that most of those people have never lived in Central Florida and witnessed a shuttle launch or heard (and felt) the sonic boom of a shuttle re-entering Earth's atmosphere. It makes you feel very miniscule and insignificant, but in a good way. Almost like standing on the beach and looking over the ocean and then realizing how much more is out there that you will never be able to fully explore. If you need more help to boost your interest, google 'contrails,' they can be colored like a rainbow or cast a shadow.

I have been fortunate enough to witness nearly all the launches that have taken place in my 26 years. I was in the 2^nd grade when I watched in horror as the Challenger exploded shortly after take off. I waited for Columbia with nervous anticipation until the sky made horrible static sounds. I have seen morning and night launches, and especially loved the dusk launches. As the sun is setting the trailing cloud makes the most miraculous rainbow you will ever see. Since Discovery's launch, NASA has grounded the space program due to pieces of insulation that fell off the shuttle. I'm not sure how you ground something when they just shipped several people off to space. It seems to me that their persistence to send the shuttle to the ISS may have been rushed.

We won the space race and ending exploration anytime soon only allows for more mishaps, but made by other countries. Our astronauts are the best trained in the world. They express the greatest intensions known to mankind. Though this is one area where the world can come together for the greatness of mankind, no matter what nationality, we have a better prepared and more active space program than any other country.

I will, however, say that sending seventy-some-odd congress men and women to watch the launch last week (which was scrubbed) costing over seventy thousand dollars, was as frivolous as it gets. Forty-four returned to try to watch the launch again; this time with success.

REDNECK SCRAP BOOK

Some people rent a Rolls Royce or a limo for their wedding getaway car. Others.... More in the Redneck Scrap Book.

READING ASSIGNMENTS

First  up today ... this column from our friend Mike Adams at the University of North Carolina, Wilmington.  The column is about a family of left-wing loonies who "thought that anti-American rhetoric was free speech while criticism of anti-American rhetoric was libel." Read this, and then pray that your kid gets a college professor like Mike Adams when they get to college.

Ted Kennedy .. hypocrite

Some common sense on the issue of drilling for oil offshore .. especially off the Gulf coast of Florida. 

Ann Coulter continues to not be impressed by John Roberts...she thinks he just may be another liberal -- much like  David Souter.  I suspect that with Coulter it's all about abortion.

Documents produced by the White House involving Supreme Court nominee John Roberts reveal...surprise...he's actually a conservative! Imagine that.

Hillary's continued drift to the right is starting to have consequences....leftists are blasting her new stances on a number of issues.  That's no way to shore up the base before running for president.  It's all part of the triangulation effort .. .brilliant politics that is going to propel this menace into the White House.

Does the entire world hate us?  Max Boot says hatred of the United States is waning in the Muslim world. Could it be that George Bush's policies have actually worked?  Imagine that!  You heard me discussing this article on the air yesterday.

Liberal Democrat and former Mayor of New York Ed Koch says the Patriot Act is imperfect, but is desperately needed during wartime.  He's probably one of the few that has actually read the legislation.

Dick Morris says that President Bush has masterfully pushed aside the Democrats in one of his most brilliant moves of his presidency, the nomination of John Roberts to the Supreme Court. 

The AFL-CIO is in ruins because of one man, its leader, John Sweeney.  Robert Novak says this has been a long time coming.

The Associated Press reported that British Prime Minister Tony Blair said the answer to ending terrorism was to solve the Palestinian-Israeli problem.  As Larry Elder reports, the only problem is he never said it.  Oops. Well .. typical for the left.

Local governments continue to abuse eminent domain and take property away from landowners.  Debra Saunders highlights one such case in Oakland, California.

The Federalist Society has been getting a lot of attention lately...but what exactly is it?  Emmett Tyrrell, a longstanding member, explains.

Heather's Reading Assignments

It's legal in Kansas: Although we don't even consider her an adult for 4 more years; I just don't think the husband should be held accountable. I don't care that she is married; I blame the parents for that too. But what can you do?

How the hell does this happen? How many more are out there? This just makes me sick!

Air America funded by the Boys & Girls Club . Well, as long as their interest is paid back... IN FULL! (For those who will not click on the link, it is a liberal run radio station NOT an airline.)

First they can't camp on public property . Then they lose 4 leaders because they were not in a place that was safe enough. Now they can, but H-forbid they mention the G-word.

Some rap, some join the marine corps, others join the nerdcore. It's a little geeky, but I'm intrigued.

77 children later he finally realized what caused it . Polygamy, it is a dangerous habit. Just imagine the family reunions. How many times has your mom run through all your brother's and sister's names before she got to yours when addressing you?

Iraqi graduates: Congratulations! This is definitely worth the 'click and sit' for the PDF.
