Of Dorks & Dogs...

The linked blog entry I've included with this entry pretty much says it all for the Liberal Elitist and what has changed from the day after 9-11.

Are we safer today than 9/11/01..? Yes- "but..."

There-in lies the crux of the Elitist's braggart for our war on terror.

"Yes- But..." to them means "We're not safe at all."

Funny thing that Ryan Singel's article takes into account many and varied forms of US governmental data on health, disease and highway/product safety data- but therein is where his Liberal ideology shines.

1st off- "launched a pre-emptive war on false pretenses"?!

Okay, you half baked Libby Sci-Hippy. Let's not forget that you're using selective memory and you pretend to only remember what you wanted to hear and that everybody in Congress near-unanimously voted FOR the invasion; no, no! Let's also confirm something here... Define "what" pretenses you seem so wanton to illude to- if you're so damned smart, how about some facts?

2nd- "But despite the never-ending litany of warnings and endless stories of half-baked plots foiled..."

"Half baked?" Again- for a scientifically minded portfolio of information, your vaguarity just boggles my mind. Define "half-baked" you indolent turd. 5 years ago, "half-baked" was the idea that 4 planes could be commandeered with only box cutters and a little religious zealotry.

And then, my favorite. 3rd and finally...

Mr Singel's vaguary knows no bounds because he never takes into account [single mindedly and myopically self indulgently so] that the "silly" color coded warning is not just for American soil!

He mystically seems to forget that federal codesses are used wherever Americans may be. Sure- if you only apply American terrorist deaths to American soil- his analysis [though blisteringly dim and short sighted] is minimally correct.

Let's consider ALL deaths to Americans related to Islamofascism. And let's do it from the very start of this threat- let's say some time around 1960.

[Yes- I'm taking this opportunity to call a spade a spade- something our cowardly Mr Singel seems unwilling to do as well- Islamofascism is what's killing Americans and un-Muslims alike; and guess what- "Terrorism" as a tactic has been with us for many- many years...]

Total CONTEMPORARY deaths related to terrorist tactics? 20.X MILLION people.

Related to cancer? Hardly a dent. Won't even argue that point.

What makes this little pendantic Liberal Agenda ploy so obvious is that to make your point, you have to use only 10 years of data. Go back any more than 20 years- using both societal as well as military data and the answers are far more skewed- almost even in many of the catagories.

How about AIDS though? You realize that Terror as a tactic has helped to further the disease of AIDS more than any other disease known to man, right? Rats are probably the only vermin besides man that have surpassed the transfer of death disease and pestulance. Problem is, rats pass plagues by virtue of their nature- man does it by virtue of his hatred or ignorance.

Party politics and hatred for the standing administration are what keeps this war on terror from being just another sentence or two of footnote in a textbook.

All the items mentioned are analogous to all falls, all disease, poisonings, flu and electrocutions- military or otherwise. Raw military data configured to Terror activity going back to 1960 puts it on-par with "yellow" designation quite easily.

Our literary and statistical charlitain [Singel] may have a legitimate rant to the banality of our existance after 9/11- truly we all should because of the leathal proclivities of Islamofascists- but to place that rant on the residing administration smacks of the same partisan politics before 9/11. It's analogous to screeching about not being allowed to borrow the car on a Saturday night because Dad stands 4 inches taller than you.

"It don't add up".

Name Five

Here’s a small quiz- see how many answers you can come up with…

1. Name the last 5 people to get the Nobel Peace Prize or a Pulitzer.
2. Name the last 5 Miss Universe Pageant winners.
3. Name the last 5 Heizman Trophy winners.
4. Name the last 5 people to win an Academy Award for best actor or actress.
5. Name the 5 wealthiest people on the planet.
6. Name the last 5 teams to win the World Series.

Rather tough questions, perhaps?

Sooner or later, none of us will remember the “headliners” of yesterday.

All of the questions above mention people that weren’t slackers by any means- they’re all “top dogs” in their professions… Sadly, with all things, no matter how great- the applause eventually dies, awards begin to tarnish- achievements soon forgotten.

Eventually, accolades and certificates are buried with their owners…

Now, try this small quiz:

1. Name 5 teachers that fostered or encouraged your best potential.
2. Name 3 people who helped you through a difficult time.
3. Name 5 people who taught you something worthwhile.
4. Name 5 people who you felt appreciated and special by.
5. Name at least 5 heroes whose stories have inspired you.

Now it’s not nearly as tough a quiz this time, right?

The people who make a difference in your life wind up being the ones without the most credentials, money or awards…

Though it could be said that your personal inspirations will fade in due time, consider this; it’s usually the ones who had the passion, courage, and drive- basically; the ones who cared, that make the greatest contributions to this world- no matter how grand or small.

There's a saying about the dropping of a pebble begins the ripples in a pool that eventually crash to a distant shore as a mighty wave...

What pebbles have you dropped into the sea of life along the way..?
