Driving

I've been driving a bit more the last few days. My Neurologist said that I can drive around the neighborhood if I have a licensed driver with me. This is fine with me as I'd get lost if I drove to far away.

Anyway the idea is to get me competent enough that I can go through a certification program and hopefully make short trips by myself. Trips like to the store or even putting my bike in the car and driving to the start of a trail would really increase the quality of my life.

Iranian Force, Focus of U.S., Still a Mystery - New York Times

Iranian Force, Focus of U.S., Still a Mystery - New York Times

Good article I think it would defy logic to think that Iran isn't doing
everything it can to disrupt what is going on in Iraq. Saddam Hussein via his
military killed millions of Iranians while at war with Iran and Iran hates the
U.S. I think they would like nothing better than to move into Iraq after a
humiliating defeat of the Americans. I also agree with Hooshan
Amirahmadi's statement. Bush wouldn't get away with saying that 'The CIA
is part of our government but we don't control what they do'. If these Qud
Forces are operating then the buck stops at the top of the rulers in Iran.
If they are inciting violence against and carrying out violence against
civilians those are war crimes and should be punished as such. Could you
imagine the senseless violence and death of innocence if an Ayatollah was held
and tried for war crimes at the Hague?

Debbie Schlussel - If only the Frank Family Lived Under Today's Visa System

It is certainly not possible to completely form our actions based upon history. But, when we see things like this we need to ask are we even learning from the past? I know we want to be an open and pluralistic society but one cannot even make the argument that radical Islam is not a sworn and dangerous enemy of the U.S. specifically and Western society and culture in general. Thanks Debbie.

Ebay

Well today I made my first post as a seller on Ebay. Yep I'm in business for myself now. Well not really. I'm just trying to get rid of some junk and make a few extra bucks for some fun stuff. It's amazing how simple Ebay and Pay Pal (now owned by Ebay) make online business now days.

Power Line: Obamanations

Power Line: Obamanations

I love this Obamanations! Yep I agree with Scott.
We are going to hear a lot more of these. Talk about Cowboy
politics. Calling down one of Americas' closest allies, claiming they are
an ally of a single person, President Bush, demeaning the contribution an ally
has made to the war on terror as not enough to allow them to criticize
Obamanation policy. This guy barely announced running for the presidency
and he is isolating his foreign policy and all the people on the left are
falling all over themselves to get a look at him. I just don't understand
it.

Michelle Malkin: Obama tries to remove foot from mouth...

Michelle Malkin: Obama tries to remove foot from mouth...


You would think that politicians, supposedly eloquent people, would be able to get their ideas across without constantly "botching jokes", "misspeaking" or worse yet "Even as I said it,” Mr. Obama said Monday, “I realized I had misspoken.” Hey here is a news flash for Mr. Obama. If you realize you are saying something that is not correct as you are saying it, CORRECT IT AS YOU SAY IT OR IMMEDIATELY AFTER! That is the way any parent would teach their child to behave, why is this so difficult for politicians? Do these people seriously believe that the American people are so stupid as to believe that the people we elect cannot go even a week without saying something offensive, stupid and ridiculous? That my friends is offensive, stupid and ridiculous. I think as Mr. Obama was realizing he had misspoken he was also thinking, "oh well, we'll see what the polls do and see if I can get away with offending and fooling the people, if not, we'll fix it later".
