HERMAN CAIN FILLS IN
Herman Cain will be filling
in for Neal again today. Neal should be back Monday, yes, Monday the holiday. So
if you're off work and running around in your car don't forget to tune in.
Meanwhile, STAFF has given you a few things to think about while you're waiting
for Neal's return.
RACE PIMPING MLK DAY
Monday is Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, and many of you have the day off. Every
year when this day comes around, if there is a Republican sitting in the Oval
Office, the media and the left begin their annual ritual of talking about how
we've come a long way with race relations, but there's still much work to be
done. The media then reports whatever supposed anti-minority policy they can
come up with and use it as evidence that said Republican president is evil.
Lather, rinse, repeat. You can set your watch to it.
Fresh out of the gate already is race warlord and poverty Pimp Al 'Tawana
Brawley' Sharpton. Speaking in New Hampshire, The Al had this to say: "George
Bush, after spending the week lobbying for Alito, justifying wiretaps and
explaining for the thousandth time why he did not respond to Katrina, will stand
somewhere on Monday and piously act as though he remembers Dr. King, when in
fact, he has stood against everything Dr. King represented." Uh-huh.
The fact is Martin Luther King, Jr. would not recognize the modern civil rights
movement and is probably already spinning in his grave. Demagogues like Al
Sharpton and The Sloganmaster don't want race relations in this country to be
improved because it would mean they were out of a job (if you can call what they
spend their time doing a "job.")
So on Monday, while you're watching the news, take note of how many reports
contain the phrase that there is still "much work to do." It never ends.

IRAN TURNING UP THE HEAT
This thing with Iran could really turn into something. Now Iran is making
threats....saying that if the disagreement over their nuclear program is
referred to the UN Security Council, then they'll block inspections of their
nuclear sites. Oh really...you don't say. It looks like somebody's gotten a
little too big for their britches, doesn't it?
So what's the answer here? The bottom line is that Iran is not going to do
anything and neither is the U.N. So we go ahead and refer Iran to the UN
Security Council. Are countries like France and Russia really going to vote to
impose economic sanctions on Iran? Nope. Not when oil is as in demand as it is
now. Not a chance.
The answer here is for somebody to bomb Iran's nuclear reactors. We know where
they are. We know where they are enriching the uranium and likely building the
weapons. So either we do it or somebody else does (like Israel.)
But instead the world will stand around and do nothing...while Iran makes
nuclear weapons and sells them to Al-Qaeda. Good plan!
PAT ROBERTSON CAVES
Pat Robertson, who every so often says something really outrageous just to get
attention, has apologized for saying Ariel Sharon's stroke was God's retribution
for giving up the Gaza strip. He wrote a letter to Ariel Sharon's son. In part,
he said: "My zeal, my love of Israel, and my concern for the future safety of
your nation led me to make remarks which I can now view in retrospect as
inappropriate and insensitive in light of a national grief experienced because
of your father's illness. I ask your forgiveness and the forgiveness of the
people of Israel for saying what was clearly insensitive at the time." That's
an understatement.
But the real story here is how much attention is paid to Pat Robertson when he
says the things that he does. The agenda is clear: to paint every Republican
and conservative as a right-wing extremist nutcase. So now Pat Robertson has
apologized...and he'll go back to his TV show. Sometime down the line he'll say
something outrageous, and it will be the top story on CNN again.
The media really is becoming quite predictable.

READING ASSIGNMENTS
Harry Belafonte is not backing down over his remarks calling George W. Bush a
terrorist.
He says the media ignores his side of the agenda, whatever that means.
Samuel Alito will be the next Associate Justice on the United States Supreme
Court after confirmation hearings that made Democrats look like idiots.
Fellow judges are praising Alito.
Think the government doesn't have enough money? Think again.
The federal government posted a budget surplus in December, the first in 3
years. Expect the leftist media to bury this one.
Of all the ways people go out of this world, there's nothing more tragic
than when somebody dies as the result of a flying shrimp. Tragic.
The anti-Death Penalty crowd have officially been disappointed.
A Virginia prisoner executed in 1992 has been confirmed guilty, following a
DNA test. So much for that.
Things could get interesting between Israel and Iran. Apparently Israel
wants the government of Iran to know that Ariel Sharon's incapacitation will not
leave the country in any less state of military readiness.
In Steven Speilberg's movie 'Munich,' about the murder of Israeli athletes in
1972,
Charles Krauthammer says the terrorists win...as the movie takes a
pro-Palestinian slant.
With white voters becoming a minority down the line,
Pat Buchanan says the GOP faces a demographic crisis...and courting Hispanic
voters is not the answer.
The Democrats unable to get Samuel Alito to say where he stands on abortion,
have resorted to smearing him.
David Limbaugh points out that the fact that Alito keeps an open mind on issues
offends the left.
Lousy movies and the Hollywood agenda
are going to keep Ben Shapiro from watching the Oscars this year. He notes
that many movies that have won awards in the last 10 years or so have had some
sort of leftist tilt. Oh, and Jon Stewart is hosting this year.
