I Have Some Bad News
Hey everyone I am sorry to have to do this but I will no longer be able to do the rants I have been doing. Between work and other obligations my time is already short and well I just don't have the time to do this the way I want to.
I will still post from time to time on Free Republic's web site but I just don't have time for this anymore which I hate to admit because I have truly loved doing it. I know I don't have that many fans here reading my rants but for those of you that do come here and take delight in my thoughts I want to thank you for coming.
I may at some time in the future get back into this when I have more time, and if I do I will let it be known at Free Republic. You folks take care and keep hitting all those conservative blogs out there as well as Free Republic to keep up with what is going on.
Again thank you for reading my rants and may God Bless you all.

Republican Rants Will Be Moving
Hey everyone there will not be a blog tonight as I am working on a new blog site and will hopefully have it set up and ready soon. I like using this service but I have had a few problems and I also don't have the flexibility that I would like so that is why I am trying to set up something different.
I will let you all know where to go once I have finished and hope to see you there when it is ready. So please check back to see when it will be up or email me through the comments section in the top right part of this page and i will email you the address.
Goodnight & God Bless........

Peaceniks (Those Who Want To Run & Hide) V's War Mongers (Those Of Us Willing To Fight Or Support Those Who Do)
So which side of history would you want to be on? Would you be proud of yourself when your say 60 or 70 years old and when the subject of this war comes up because your grandchild asks you what it was like? Would you be proud to admit you were a peacenik, would you be proud to admit you were a "War Monger" as the liberals call us? Just think how you would feel trying to explain your stance to your grandchildren.
Well let's see if your a peacenik then you'd have to tell them about how you disagreed with the majority of the country. You'd have to tell them that even though we found hundreds of thousands of mass graves filled with men, women, and children you still disagreed with the war. You'd have to tell them that you would rather Saddam to continue to rule over Iraq because it was wrong in your opinion for us to remove him from power. Then you'd have to explain/show your grandchildren just what this evil man did to the people of Iraq.
But if your a "War Monger" as the liberals say then you'd have to tell your grandchildren about how we are such a loving and caring nation that as we were dropping bombs on the military targets of Iraq we were trying to feed and tend to the people of Iraq medically so they could survive. You'd have to tell them about how our soldiers went over there knowing that some would never come home alive to defend this country. You'd have to tell them of how our soldiers spent days out in the desert heat trying to protect the people of Iraq as well as themselves. You'd have to tell them how the children of Iraq brought flowers to the soldiers to thank them for bringing freedom to their country. You'd have to tell them of the people dancing in the streets thanking our President for bringing freedom to them.
Now there are many more things you'd tell them from both sides but I think my position and what I will tell my grandchildren is clear. But with that being said let me make one more point from my heart about how I feel about being a "War Monger".
I am proud to be a "War Monger" if it means that I am behind the troops for their sacrifice. I am proud if it means that I supported the defense of my country and the liberation of a country of oppressed people. I am proud if it means that I supported getting rid of a sadistic evil murdering P.O.S. I am proud to be an American and what being an American stands for.
I'd rather die being an American fighting for his country then some scared little peacenik begging terrorists to do whatever/kill whoever they want as long as they just let me go.
Ok thats it for tonight and I shall see you folks again tomorrow night.
Goodnight & God Bless...........

2 Rants For Tonight
Homicide Bombing Against U.N. In Iraq
Ok there is no question that reports will be flying for the next week if not longer about who dropped the ball here about intelligence regarding this attack, but that is not what I want to focus in on. What I want to look at here is the fact that democrats are using this attack as a club to try and beat up on President Bush. I know, I know what your thinking right now (Don't they use anything and everything to beat up on President Bush?), and the answer is yes. But Just stay with me and you'll see where I am going.
Kerry and Grahm have already used this against the President and I am sure many of the other 9 dwarfs will soon do so as well. But what makes this one subject hit such a sore spot with me is that if they are going to beat up the President over this then they are in essence saying that any target that is hit is our fault now. Believe me folks it's gonna get worse especially if we get hit here at home again. They will use this same logic, same tired argument, same despicable tactic against President Bush if the terrorists pull off another major attack here on our soil.
I mean I get pretty pissed off when no matter what President Bush does they try to attack him over it, but when it comes to using what terrorists have done to try and lay the blame at our President's door, well that just makes me down right mad as hell. If this was President Bush's fault then they might as well say that the bombing in Israel not long after the bombing in Iraq was the fault of Ariel Sharon. But no they would never do that and the reason they wouldn't is because they no it's not true and they would lose the Jewish vote.
The democrats have become a party of sick, sadistic, power hungry freaks in my opinion. Life and death is nothing more to them then political chess pieces to be used as pawns in their game of political power. When it comes to the death of soldiers or anyone on our side overseas they use those deaths for their own gain. There is nothing noble about those democrats who do that and I for one hope that when they stand face to face with God he has little remorse on their souls.
Environmentalists BULLSH** Strikes Again
Well our troops could be cooler while serving over in the desert heat of Iraq but thanks to what the environmentalists wacko's have done over the years the U.S. Postal Service has refused to send 302 air conditioners to help cool them off. This is so stupid folks and it just goes to show how much affect these wacko's have over our country.
All I can say is we need to hit these people head on folks. They want us to go back to the days of living in caves without lights, without air conditioning, without heat, without cars, and the list goes on and on. If they want to go live in caves I say go ahead we don't need you. But I will not give up my car, my air conditioning, my heat, and I will not give up my barbecue for anyone.
Just make sure you keep your heads on straight folks they spread a lot of lies to get what they want, they are liberals so what else would you expect???

No Rant Tonight
Having problems with staying connected to the internet so no rant tonight. Hopefully this message will get through. I'll double up on the rant tomorrow night.

A Few Things To Start Off The Week
The Tide Begins To Turn In Iraq
There is a new report out in the Telegraph from the U.K. that if true means that the tide has begun to turn in our favor in Iraq. They quote a few Iraq's who have turned their anger toward Saddam, Al Qaida, and the Iranian Militants who are targeting them instead of our troops. I always believed this time would come but I didn't think it would take so long.
People turn anger against Saddam
Al Qaida Takes Credit For Blackout
Now I don't know if we should believe this or not but until the government finds out what caused the blackout I won't rule this out as a possibility. If nothing else this could have been a test run for something down the road. Remember folks we are coming up on the 2nd anniversary of the 9/11 attacks which is about the usual time in between major attacks for Al Qaida.
Al Qaida claims responsibility for blackout
A Note To Rant Readers
I just wanted to thank those of you who have been keeping up with my rants, it feels good to know that there are those of you out there who are interested in what I have to say. I know it's probably crazy trying to keep up with my time schedule of posting my rants and I apologize for that but dealing with work here and a family as well kinda makes my posting times a little weird.
Anyway as I said thank you for reading my rants, whether you love them or hate them. I hope you enjoy them and I'll see you again tomorrow night.
Good night & God Bless.........

Now I don't know if we should believe this or not but until the government finds out what caused the blackout I won't rule this out as a possibility. If nothing else this could have been a test run for something down the road. Remember folks we are coming up on the 2nd anniversary of the 9/11 attacks which is about the usual time in between major attacks for Al Qaida.
Al Qaida claims responsibility for blackout
A Note To Rant Readers
I just wanted to thank those of you who have been keeping up with my rants, it feels good to know that there are those of you out there who are interested in what I have to say. I know it's probably crazy trying to keep up with my time schedule of posting my rants and I apologize for that but dealing with work here and a family as well kinda makes my posting times a little weird.
Anyway as I said thank you for reading my rants, whether you love them or hate them. I hope you enjoy them and I'll see you again tomorrow night.
Good night & God Bless.........

The Blackout Of 2003
First let me apologize for not posting a rant last night but my internet service was out until late this morning and then I had to travel to see my bone doctor today so I am sorry for the long wait. By the way the doctor appointment. went fine in case anyone wanted to know.
Now down to business... Regardless of how/why the blackout happened yesterday I believe this should be a wake up call to all of us. Now the government is doing a lot to stop another terrorist attack on our soil but believe me folks they can't stop them all. Also if anyone thinks that with all the information, hints, tips that we had before 9/11 we could have stopped it, well think again (I'll explain more at the end of this rant).
Now back to what happened yesterday. Something or someone knocked off the power to millions of people in many areas and even as we speak some people still don't have power. But to me this isn't the scary part of this situation in fact to me it shows only a pre-cursor of a major problem if the terrorists used such a tactic that could result in millions of deaths.
Ok hang on there are many scenarios to this so let's start with small attacks. We know the terrorists are very fond of using homicide bombers so let's tackle that one first. Think back to those images we saw yesterday of all those people walking out of buildings and out onto the streets. Now put some homicide bombers in different spots of the crowd waiting till the crowd gets packed tight and you have complete carnage.
As if that thought isn't scary enough think back to what we have heard of the terrorists trying to use crop dusters. Imagine if they loaded some crop dusters full of bio weapons and with the electricity down got those planes up in the air. With all the communications networks down yesterday and all those people out on the streets. Think about it folks cause it's not that far fetched of an idea and is very possible to do which is a terrifying thought cause there really isn't much the government could do about it.
Now for those of you who are saying, (What do you mean the government couldn't do anything about it?). Well thanks to the democrats we can't profile people which would give us a big boost on catching these sleepers we have here in our country. Plus given the fact Israel has the toughest security of any country and they can't even stop all the terrorists before they pull off an attack.
Ok now to explain my reference to 9/11 above. The reason i don't believe we could have stopped the attacks of 9/11 is because even with all the information we had coming in the main parts were just bits and pieces. Imagine trying to put together a jigsaw puzzle that is not only in a million pieces but scattered between you and 10 of your friends. Now imagine that along with these million pieces you and your friends have thousands of new pieces being brought to you every day to add to this puzzle. Now add to that the fact that some of these pieces don't fit in this puzzle anywhere cause they are pieces that look like the puzzle but are really just bogus pieces put in to throw you off.
I think you get my point here folks cause it's simple. We can't expect our CIA/FBI/DOJ etc.. to figure out everything. They are human just as we are and I am sure trying to do their best. Given the fact that they were gutted from using certain sources in the Clinton administration I think led to a lot of the breakdown of intel we received.
This is a wake up call America we are/have been/will be venerable to another attack so be on your toes. Also one final note before I close to all of you who are saying right now (How could you put this up??? What if they read this and get ideas from what you posted???). Look these terrorists are smart and pulled off a major attack on 9/11 which most people would have never believed possible. What I have posted is common sense given their past tactics so don't tell me I am giving them ideas.
Ok thats it I'm gonna leave it at that for tonight. Again folks i am sorry for not having the rant up last night but it was out of my hands. I hope you all have a good weekend and please if your out around the areas that are still suffering from the blackout try lending a hand to some people cause I'm sure they would welcome it.
Goodnight And God Bless..............
