The idiocy of the people within them. Successful democracies find themselves with population that have a few factors that simply grow as time goes on… More and more free time More and more freedom to communicate Less and less harsh reality reminding them of the danger they are in A growing class of “activist” idiots [...]

Personally, I am a little shocked.  “Iraq is now the main front in the long war we are fighting against the Islamist terrorists who attacked us on 9/11. In fact 90% of the suicide bombers in Iraq today killing Iraqis and American soldiers are foreign Al Qaeda fighters. Iran is training and equipping soldiers, Iraqis, [...]

My opinion of the insanity of trying to force a pull out in Iraq is already well covered here on this blog. Now let’s talk about Iran for a moment. I’ll summarize… The underlying reality of Iran is they hate us. In fact, hatred of those who differ in religion (and we differ greatly) drives [...]

I haven’t paid much attention of late to Dennis Miller. I know, I know, my mistake. While I’ve been busy with other stuff he has been out there talkign sense and generally being smart and funny.
