Saddam Hussein, terrorists and WMD, Part 2, al Qaida
September 15, 2008 | Leave a Comment
Based on information from a variety of sources, I believe that Saddam Hussein cooperated with al Qaida and conspired with that organization against U.S. interests.
I’m not an attorney. No. I don’t play one on TV or radio. I’m just an old U.S. Army Intelligence guy. I do, however, believe that I have some basic understanding of the concept of [...]

9-11, Saddam Hussein, terrorists and WMD
September 12, 2008 | 3 Comments
It seems appropriate on September 11th, another day that “will live forever in infamy,” to look back at the status quo antebellum and the history of the War in Iraq. This is especially important during this election cycle, since Barack H. Obama’s primary claim to fame was that he was against the 2003 invasion of [...]

Re: Obama and lipstick on pigs…

Nightrider in his comment urged emphasis on weightier matters than Obama’s pig in makeup. I agree that the candidate’s bad joke, gaffe, or whatever it was should not be the defining issue of the campaign. I disagree with Obama on gun control, taxes, the War on Islamofascist Terror, eliminating secret ballots in union elections, abortion, and just about [...]

Non-violence a non-starter as counter to established modern tyranny
September 8, 2008 | 3 Comments
Much is often made by Left-wing “pacifists” about the fact that Gandhi was successful in ending British rule in India through the use of non-violent protest. If the game is Gandhi versus Great Britain with the world press looking on and sympathizing with the anti-colonials, Gandhi wins. But what would have happened, if Gandhi had [...]

The (Roman) circus is in town, Obama’s Nuremberg Rally
August 28, 2008 | Leave a Comment
Ye Hah! The Roman circus has come to Denver! Tonight we will see Obama’s Nuremberg Moment. A Greco-Roman temple? What? No togas? Who will be the filmographer who will make his Triumph of the Will? Michael Moore comes to mind. Hopefully, Obama will be a mere also-ran, a footnote to history, rather than the founder [...]

A lot of conservatives are “unsettled” by Barack Obama’s speech calling youth and others to national “service.” Let’s assume for a moment that Barack H. Obama was not referring to a KGB/Gestapo-like domestic intelligence organization in his speech of 07-02-08, when he referred to a “civilian national security force.” What he said: “We [...]

Kids and guns and the War on Terror
July 19, 2008 | Leave a Comment
In the June 24th issue of The Denver Post, on Page 13 B, “Opinion,” there is a picture of an eleven-year old boy wearing a helmet. He is shown with a machine gun on top of a Humvee. The article in question is “Summer camp sets sights on military kids,” June 20th, Denver [...]

Colorado Senate Race Debate: Shaffer v. Udall
July 14, 2008 | 1 Comment
A debate took place today between former GOP Congressman Bob Schaffer and Democrat Congressman Mark Udall at the Wildlife Experience hall. I thought Schaffer did very well, especially when he read “anti-war” Udall’s own words in favor of going to war in Iraq. Schaffer also scored points when he noted that he had [...]

On this Forth of July, I believe it is particularly appropriate to celebrate the recent Supreme Court victory for American freedom, Columbia V. Heller, which affirmed the right of individual citizens to keep and bear arms. We should also renew our commitment to support the men and women in the U.S. Military, the police, and [...]

War on Terror and media bias-Whose side are they on?
June 22, 2008 | 1 Comment
Usually, the people who want to disarm Americans are the same people who seem to want the U.S. to do badly in the War on Terror. Take this headline from the Denver Post. “Town braces for latest Iraqi offensive, Security forces enter Amarah to confront cleric al-Sadr’s Mahdi Army.” Last line: “Residents said that fliers had [...]
