The way it should be

Yaum ath-Thulaathaa 21st Muharram 1429

As salaam alaikum wa rahmaatuulahhi wa baraakaatuu,

Last night there was a black out on prime time T.V. as W invaded every network. America was forced to look at it self in the mirror. W laid out a pretty good agenda and it will be interesting if congress will give him anything. It was weak on foreign policy as always.

I would like to see coverage like last night every day and we have it with CSPAN, I think it would be tax payer money well spent to have CSPAN on the national airwaves, but until then, and maybe better yet you can watch it over the net, as I did last night, a do occasionally. Milwaukee also has a city channel on cable that I would love to see run on local air waves. Maybe with the digital conversion that will be possible, or maybe I will find a way to watch it on the net.

Funny thing is, I don’t know what Britney or Lindsey had for dinner.

Good Riddance

Tonight we will all start to say good bye to the Macho Man of politics… yes W. I think that he maybe the most tragic person in all of American Politics cause I think that he wanted to do good, but he just didn’t have the courage to stand up for the people that he was chosen to rule over and for the weak of the world. The real shaytons in the administration were Chaney, and Rumsfield, he finally dumped Rummy, but still holds on to the leg of Chaney. Even though he may have meant no harm, those who did used him, and he went along with it knowingly and still does. A father could not have a better son. The biggest disaster of his campaign was New Orleans, they way he just left his own people suffer… despicable.

Preview of Tonights State of the Union

btw… I think that he still would have done better then Gore, and Kerry.

Cruel Intentions

Yaum al-Jumua 2nd Muharram 1429

Today I wanted to focus on the latest Bush foreign policy moves.

First the Israel – Palestinian Peace process is a joke without brining Hamas to the table. This will do nothing more then further the divide amongst the people of Palestine, and it doesn’t get to the real problem. The real problem is that the violence is caused because the Palestinian people don’t feel a sense of Justice, and the Israelis don’t feel secure. The root of the problem is that both sides think that the other side stole the land. Israelis claim to the land is found in the Bible or Torah and they try to dig for artifacts to prove their physical connection to the land. Meanwhile the Palestinians have a more recent claim cause they actually lived there and were force off. What needs to be settled out is who land is it? Until both sides can come to an agreement (compromise) you will not have peace. Just another in a long line of Bush Administration blunders…

Second, the stupidest chapter in Bush Administration and Iran relations. Is this a joke? They couldn’t get them on the nuclear weapons charges so they have some guy sounding like Arnold driving a boat… Iran should have just told the U.S. in an incident like that torpedo the boat, but then the U.S. will torpedo a whole fleet. To me at the very most it was a bad joke by Iranian Sailors, but even that is hard for me to believe, and I think it was over exaggerated.

Finally, sorry McCain, but the surge is at a critical point and the violence in Iraq has escalated in the last few days. Check out Juan Cole’s blog for more details.
