POLLS Show New York Times Irrelevant The Times can pat itself on the back for playing a big part in trying to turn people against the administration via their daily pounding of the war. They stopped actually reporting events long ago. Now it's all about making polls to substantiate their agenda. Then the poll becomes the news. Meanwhile the great unwashed is fed this made-up reality. I wonder what the POLLS show the public thinks about the New York Times' credibility? What do the polls show about whether they are biased towards the agenda of the left? There, you've conducted your own poll, and that's all you need to know about the New York Times. Poll Shows Dwindling Approval of Bush and Congress. Increasingly pessimistic about Iraq and skeptical about President Bush's plan for Social Security, Americans are in a season of political discontent. By ROBIN TONER and MARJORIE CONNELLY.

Sen. Durbin & Dems Play The Surrender Card Al Qaida is once again getting support from Democrats. Comparing how we coddle our enemy combatants in GITMO to Nazi Germany and Hitler and Pol Pot, on the floor of the Senate, will have already emboldened the enemy and will cost more Iraqi, American, and coalition lives for having done so. Bringing discredit and failure of this war has been their objective since about January 2002. These Democrats, not most Democrats I hope, but these Democrats are calling for closing GITMO, infusing the illegal combatants into our own legal system as if they were a looter or something, and calling for the withdrawl of troops from Iraq on some sort of timetable; a legislative surrender. What more could our enemy ask for? We should let the prisoners go, which is what would eventually happen if 'tried' under our legal system instead of the military rules of warfare concerning the handling of illegal combatants. We should leave Iraq, surrendering to the fight against terrorism. The message we would send to the struggling Iraqi people with their will to succeed in democracy and freedom, all that stuff we told them we were going to do for them, until they could fend for themselves, a big NEVERMIND, WE'RE OUTTA HERE, HAVE A NICE DAY. Just another example of what they will do, how far they will go, regardless of human cost, to drag down this administration in order to get their power back. Not to mention the message we send to the world, that our word means nothing. The humiliation of losing every election since 2000 has trumped the execution of this war and brought the focus to a propaganda war about how bad things are rather than staying united to fight it, like the greatest generation did in WWII.

Islam Embraces Slavery & Rape You just can't put a pretty face on this story, unless you are a Muslim. The disconnect from humanity and blind faith toward dehumanizing women and the family are about as an offensive position as any to take. If this is the face of Islam, then IT needs a facelift. It's not hard to understand why women don't like to be raped and removed from families, forced into new families like a slave. The New Delhi government calls it a 'a sensitive religious issue.' By comparison, it makes the hoopla over the GITMO holding tank look squeaky-clean. 9:27:54 AM    comment [] trackback []
