Another little visit to The Burning Bush Blog. :)

I stopped over at The Burning Bush Blog


Seems that during a walk with her puppy Popcorn she saw some military planes on Memorial Day maneuvers.


Admitted peacenik that I am, I do see the attractions of war. I am glad there are warriors, soldiers, and I do believe there are times when nothing but force will suffice. I'm all for the U.S. having a strong standing military force. For having that strength, none will dare to oppose us.

There IS NO attraction in war. War is hell. This old sailor who has been shot at in war, and served in more than one war zone, can tell you that. But I to am glad there are warriors to protect this land and other lands from agressors.





Yet I don't believe it should be used indescriminately or for the benefit of the rich of this country.
It's not. That's just a bulls--t lie, told by idiots like Micheal "Dude, Where's my brain" Moore. I don't think even he believes it.

Hitler was openly attempting world domination. He had a plan and it was to force the world to their knees at his feet. He was invading foreign soil and taking over neighboring countries. He needed to be stopped.

The Jihadist Terrorists have stated that they too plan world domination. Well, of a different sort, their plan is for the world to be dominated by their wacked out interpretation of Islam. They plan to first dominate the middle east,then the world.

Saddam tried invading his neighbors just once. He was stopped. We didn't slaughter him, true, we didn't permanently end his threat to his own people or his neighbors. But I think he got the message that no one is going to lay around and let him try for world domination either.

I guess you've forgotten the Iran/Iraq war? That makes twice he tried invading his neighbor. This war in Iraq is not about that. It is about the fact that Saddam openly supported Jihadist Terror. He was allowing many wanted terrorists to hide in Iraq, He paid the families of Palistinian suicide bombers. He had and was pursuing more WMDs. It'

It's not exactly a quantum leap to realize that he would readily have given WMD to his Jihadist buddies.

But Saddam didn't have WMDs

Yeah Right. I wonder where the three truck loads of VX gas found in Jordan recently IN THE HANDS OF TERRORISTS came from. You don't make that kind of stuff in a garage. ( I also wonder why the American Press has ignored that story. They couldn't possibly be biased.)



As Will Rogers said:
"If we could just let other people alone and do their own fighting. When you get into trouble 5,000 miles from home, we've got to have been looking for it."

Ole Will lived in a different time, before ICBMs, or 9/11s.

The United States is not, and should not present themselves, as the world's police force. Other countries have a right of self-determination. We believe our own States have the right of self-rule in some situations, why don't we believe other countries have the right to make their own mistakes, or run their country in their own way?

This isn't a police action. It's an attempt to stop an enemy that declared war on us. We do leave other countries alone. But sometimes they don't leave us alone. We invaded Afghanistan because it's government was working hand in hand with Osama Bin Laden. Iraq was the same thing only not so blatently so.


Seriously, we should have Jimmy Carter overseeing our elections this year, the potential and likelyhood for the ruling party to cheat is so great.

Good Grief! Gore Lost, get over it. The votes were counted and recounted even after the Supreme Court ruling. In every recount GORE LOST. Thank God. That tree hugging dork would still be hugging the poor dead trees in front of the Twin Towers. "OH, you say there were people killed too?, But look at the poor little trees."

We need to mind our own business, and work on correcting the many problems right here in the U.S., and let the rest of the world take care of themselves in their own way. If that interferes with our oil supply, perhaps we should pursue oil independence then. Develop alternative energy sources.

Yes, all the countries of the world are interdependent. But that doesn't give us any right to tell them how they will live, any more than it gives them the right to tell us how to live.


If the rest of the world would leave us alone, we would leave them alone. How much good would it do to the idea of correcting the many problems right here in the U.S if another 9/11 happened.


Well, enough ranting. I don't want to totally spoil the mental picture of those fine, brave airplanes circling in the sky...

Yeah, why don't you go to a Memorial Day event to show support for the troops that are fighting and dying to keep you safe, and allow you to rant in your blog. And afterwards you can find a place that is putting together care packages for them and donate a little something.
