Saudis Reject Pakistani Diplomat Whose Name Translates to 'Biggest Dick'January 24, 2010, 2:24 pm 34 comments in the last 7 days. comments
Saudis Reject Pakistani Diplomat Whose Name Translates to 'Biggest Dick'.

A high level Pakistani diplomat has been rejected as Ambassador of Saudi Arabia because his name. Akbar Zeb, equates to "Biggest Dick" in Arabic. Saudi officials, apparently overwhelmed by the idea of the name, put their foot down and gave the idea the kibosh. Akbar Zeb is no newcomer to politics. He most recently served as High Commissioner Designate of Pakistan to Canada, and prior to that he was the ambassador of Pakistan to South Africa,. He also served in that capacity in Washington from 1983-87, and New Delhi from 1994-2000.

Op Ed: 'Personhood' Perverts Our National Heritage, Now Denies Progress .

Multiplying politically-manipulated measures are fueling the fires of a new rebellion in this nation. That’s a furious fact, reflected in numerous ways and now undeniable on many grounds. Personal desolation resulting in disgust --and, for some, in near seditious revulsion-- have combined to create this consummate democracy-threatening mess. Most Americans still believe in their Constitution, and seek rational, reasonable adjustment to 21st Century reality.

'Spiritual Warrior' James A. Ray Charged With 3 Counts of Manslaughter.

"Jesus was saying to those Jews who had believed Him, "If you continue in My word, then you are truly disciples of Mine; and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free." John 8:31-32 Many Americans are shaking their heads and “Tsk-tsking” about the avoidable deaths of three people who attended self-help guru James A. Ray’s retreat in Sedona, Arizona last October.

American Entropy.

Entropy, also known as the second law of thermodynamics, is the measure of disorder in a system. The entropy of the universe as a whole tends to a maximum. In the context of nations, this means that no nation or empire lasts indefinitely. On this point history is clear and unequivocal: Ancient Greece and Rome, Persian empire, Turkish empire, British empire, the Mongol empire of the 13th century which was the world’s largest contiguous empire.

The Second Amendment Fantasy and How Americans Have Been Taken In.

The Second Amendment has evolved into an emotional issue par excellence that has divided American society. But the underlying issues are not about guns but about fear—on two levels. The first level, which goes back to the beginning, is a fear of government which was legitimate in the 18th century, but hasn’t been applicable since then.

Holding Oregon Cops Accountable Over Criminal ProfilingFebruary 5, 2010, 5:39 pm 10 comments in the last 7 days. comments
Holding Oregon Cops Accountable Over Criminal Profiling.

A developing story in Oregon involves the dishonesty of police officers, and the judges who make the final call on their actions. When you think about it, the entire system is a conflict of interest because the traffic officers and the judges are on the same team. This creates real problems. The issues ring back to the 1950's and 1960's when police all over the U.S. were involved in suppressing people over race, gender, economic status, and their physical appearance.

Splitting America to Save AmericaFebruary 7, 2010, 12:03 pm 9 comments in the last 7 days. comments
Splitting America to Save America.

I am simply done with crazy people and think they need to be sent away. There are so many of them that Utah and Oklahoma can’t hold all of them. I am in favor of splitting America in two. I’m a Vietnam veteran, one exposed to agent orange, over 60 years old and have seen my life and the lives of my children, my friends and decent Americans poisoned by idiots. I’m not taking any blame.

God is NeutralFebruary 4, 2010, 4:28 pm 6 comments in the last 7 days. comments
God is Neutral.

The confusion surrounding the nature of God is due to the difference between the Universal concept of an unknowable God vs. Christianity‘s “Institutional God” Christianity evolved out of Judaism as a cult within the Judaic tradition. Christians devised a plan to supersede Judaism with a more universal religion; the Catholic Church and Jesus [when he agreed to die for the cause] was anointed the Christ, symbol of Christianity from whom the coterie took its name.

Military Environmental Hazards Bill Faces HurdlesJanuary 29, 2010, 1:00 pm 6 comments in the last 7 days. comments
Military Environmental Hazards Bill Faces Hurdles.

There’s a definite need for more “adult supervision” in Washington. Yesterday, the Senate Committee on Veterans Affairs passed an original bill, “Examination of Exposures to Environmental Hazards During Military Service Act of 2010.” The vote was 9 to 5 along party lines. Nine democrats voted for the bill while 5 Republicans against it. Senator Jim Webb (D, VA), a Navy Cross Marine veteran, did not vote.

Christmas Day Crotch Bomber Tied to Israel, FBIFebruary 7, 2010, 8:09 pm 4 comments in the last 7 days. comments
Christmas Day Crotch Bomber Tied to Israel, FBI.

The Christmas Day "terrorist" is the latest in a series of staged incidents meant to make The Clash of Civilizations appear plausible and "the war on terrorism" rational. The storyline does not hold together. Not even a little bit. As usual, the source of this media-fueled fear campaign traces directly to Tel Aviv-with a supporting role by the FBI.
