I just wanted to let everyone know that I won’t be writing about the Olympics or covering it in any way. I feel that every American (including President Bush) that are in attendance at the Olympics are traitors to democracy and civilization.
These commie bastards are our enemies. Each and every Chinese citizen (and I use that term very euphemistically), each man, woman and child are enemies to the USA, the west, and basic civilization. They look at us as enemies and we should return the favor. Look where pretending that “they really don’t mean it” got us where it concerns Muslims!
China should be treated as the lepers that they are, not as useful and legitimate citizens of the international community.

Liberty’s Asylum

A few months ago I met a bunch of great folks at a blogger’s conference in Chicago. Since then we’ve begun to try and get more involved together and we’ve decided to call our little network “Liberty’s Asylum.”
Check out all our affiliated blogs. There’s some great stuff out there.

Flight 93 Memorial Update…

Islamic symbolism causing fundraising problems for Flight 93 Memorial
Pennsylvanians know about the Islamic symbolism in the Flight 93 Memorial, and have stopped donating. The first indication came last September when State Senator Jane Orie came aboard as a fundraiser. She got a quick education in growing controversy.
In a 9/11 radio interview with Pittsburgh talker Fred Honsberger, Orie explained why she hoped the Flight 93 families would get back together and revisit their design choice:
Orie: “No matter who it is, and no matter where I went today for 9/11 events, everybody brought up this crescent. Whether it is intentional or not, it is disturbing to people.”Honsberger: “So everyone is bringing it up to you.”
Orie: “Absolutely.”
At that time, the Memorial Project had collected about $12.5 million, far short of the huge design’s anticipated 60 million dollar price tag. Six months later the amount sits at “A little more than $12 million.” It is possible that they are actually spending more on their fundraising efforts than they are raising.
Bill Steiner, who has been rustling up opposition on the ground in PA, dropped by Somerset recently and had a conversation with Memorial Project Superintendent Joanne Hanley. She appeared beleaguered, and confided that fundraising was sluggish, suggesting that the memorial would probably have to be built in stages. Presumably she meant something other than the normal stages of building, but was anticipating delays.
Now this week the Somerset Daily American has an editorial complaining that the whole state seems to be dumping on Somerset County, bemoaning amongst other things the lack of funding for the Flight 93 Memorial.
This is not the preferred way to stop architect Paul Murdoch’s terroist memorial mosque from being built. The damn thing ought to just be stopped by those in government who are in a position to stop it, so that a new and fitting design can be selected. At that point, money will be needed, but for now, with Murdoch in full command of the hijacked memorial, lack of money is what is needed. Starving the engines of fuel is one way to keep the hijacker from reaching his target, and until the hijacker is stopped, nothing else matters.
The people get it, and are voting with their pocketbooks. When are our our elected representatives going to step up and do their part?
Senator Orie is not the only Pennsylvania state legislator who has expressed concern, but Congressman Tancredo is as yet the only politician to actually call for the crescent design to be scrapped. If our representatives can’t be leaders, can’t they at least be followers?

Political Vindication Radio

I was a guest on Political Vindication Radio last week and thought I’d put in a plug for the show hosted by Frank and Shane.
Frank and Shane run a great show and we visited for the better part of an hour. We spoke on the left-wing bias in the media with topics ranging from the AP, Scientific American Magazine, the New York Times and many other news outlets.We talked of the subtle bias of labels and how the media skews the discussion of current events in favor of the left. There were laughs and seriousness.
It was a great time and I highly recommend Political Vindication Radio for anyone interested in some solid political talk-radio. I must thank Frank and Shane for their kind treatment and for welcoming me in
Join Frank and Shane every Tuesday Live at 6 p.m. PST

William F. Buckley Jr. (1925-2008)
February 27, 2008 | Filed Under Uncategorized | No Comments
From I’m devastated to report that our dear friend, mentor, leader, and founder William F. Buckley Jr., died overnight in his study in Stamford, Connecticut.
After year of illness, he died while at work; if he had been given a choice on how to depart this world, I suspect that would have been exactly it. At home, still devoted to the war of ideas.
As you might expect, we’ll have much more to say here and in NR in the coming days and weeks and months. For now: Thank you, Bill. God bless you, now with your dear Pat. Our deepest condolences to Christopher and the rest of the Buckley family. And our fervent prayer that we continue to do WFB’s life’s work justice.
****
And I must add my own condolences to the Buckley family. I may not always have agreed with William F. Buckley, Jr., but he was an intellectual giant of the conservative movement and his perspective, civility and wit will be missed.
