Support For Iraq War Growing

Captain's Quarters: Support For Iraq War Growing

"USA TODAY's Susan Page reports that President Bush is making some headway in arguing that the increase in U.S. troops in Iraq is showing military progress. In the latest USA TODAY/Gallup Poll, taken Friday through Sunday, the proportion of those who said the additional troops are 'making the situation better' rose to 31% from 22% a month ago. Those who said it was 'not making much difference' dropped to 41% from 51%. "


I think most Americans want us to win the war in Iraq. Partly that is out of national pride, because aside from those on the far left, most Americans do have pride in their country. I think that they want this war to be a success not only for what it means for America, but for what it means to Iraq. When they believe it is going to fail, then they think the war is not a good idea. When they are shown that not only can it work, but it is working they believe in it again. I think the war can be won, and the support of the American people can be won. I think Bush needs to put more of an effort into talking to Americans, this has been his weakness from the start. The void of his discussion with the American people has allowed his detractors to fill the void with their ideas.

The Denver Post - Bloggers consider forming labor union

The Denver Post - Bloggers consider forming labor union:

"In a move that might make some people scratch their heads, a loosely formed coalition of left-leaning bloggers are trying to band together to form a labor union they hope will help them receive health insurance, conduct collective bargaining or even set professional standards."


If this weren't in the Denver Post, I would think I was reading something out of The Onion. This sounds like a joke, a bad joke. A blogger union? You can't see me but I am shaking my head and wondering what I could say to express my confusion on this topic. I have worked for a union before and it wasn't any different than any other job, except I had to cut a share of my check to one more party.

Atlas Shrugs: Jewish Genius

Atlas Shrugs: Jewish Genius:

"The team stresses the main question is whether — according to the principles of curvature development in the theory of relativity — a time machine can be created. 'In other words ' can we cause spacetime to curve in such a way as to enable travel back in time? Such a journey requires a significant curvature of spacetime, in a very special form.' "


I can prove to you right here and now that either a time machine will never be invented (or if invented never used in any meaningful way - most of all by a Jew. I'll explain). If there were a time machine in the future, then we can assume that they would be able to go to the past, not just their past, but more importantly our past. If they went to the past and changed it, even if we didn't know it had been changed, it would still be our past. When we stand in the present and look at the past, what we are looking at is either events that either have not been changed or have been changed in ways that we don't know. The reason for example that I would say that more than anything a Jew can be proven to not create a time machine is the holocaust. There was a massive killing of Jews in world war II, that is historical fact. If a Jew invented a time machine why would that person not go back and change the historical facts, so those people did not die. In which case we would be living in a present where there was no killing of the Jews in World War II. You can say, well maybe they will, but the nature of the event makes it so that if they will, then they already have. Unless they used the time machine to stop some even worse crime from taking place. It is interesting to note that without the holocaust there might not be an Israeli state, so there are reasons to not change it.

At a basic level, the idea of going back to the past is silly. There are few things that can be changed in the past that wouldn't have unpredictable changes on the future, both good and bad. The inventors could even change history to kill themselves and destroy their invention. If there was no Israeli state, then there would be Israeli Universities to promote the research, probably the researchers parents would not meet and conceive them. Time may move forward and backward, but changing the past is a dangerous and futile exercise.

Which of course means that maybe it is invented but it is either never used, or it is used in strictly observational purposes, and parallel technology is invented to prevent beings in the past from experiencing beings from the future.

Dhimmi Watch: UK: 'Allah' ice-creams banned


Dhimmi Watch: UK: 'Allah' ice-creams banned:


"Cone-demned ... 'spinning whirl' ice creams look similar to the world Allah written in Arabic script"


Are people really that insane that they are offended that the design on the top of an ice cream container bears a very lose resemblance to the name Allah. Where is Rage Boy, he should be out in the streets getting his ugly mug in the news again. This is ice cream people.

On the other hand I feel like I am watching one of those parents that try and protect their children. You see how they try and keep them away from the simple dangers of the world, and while you understand it, you think it is making the child weak and giving it an unrealistic expectation of the world. You want to ask the parent, when are you going to stop treating them like children. When are we going to stop treating Muslims like children.

Atlas Shrugs: Beauchump recants: Liar Liar Pants on Fire ...... and shirts and shoes and.........:

"THE WEEKLY STANDARD has learned from a military source close to the investigation that Pvt. Scott Thomas Beauchamp--author of the much-disputed 'Shock Troops' article in the New Republic's July 23 issue as well as two previous 'Baghdad Diarist' columns--signed a sworn statement admitting that all three articles he published in the New Republic were exaggerations and falsehoods--fabrications containing only 'a smidgen of truth,' in the words of our source."


What is this guy the brother of Stephen Glass or something? This going to hit the magazine hard, this is the second major scandal of this nature in recent history, and is going to damage its credibility. It is understandable that it is hard to do fact checking on stories that take place in a war zone, so I want to give them a break on that one. Where they run into problems is the relationship one of their staff members has with the author, and what effect that may have had on the stories being accepted.

In the larger picture, I don't think this tells us anything about the war in Iraq or those who oppose the war. Members of the left, took to his stories when they came out because they fit they world that they wanted to believe. We all take the information that confirms what we believe much easier than that which does not confirm what we believe. That doesn't mean that the whole of the movement against the war is peopled by persons who would lie and cheat to get their agenda through.

Despite -- or because of -- Bush's mentoring and tough talk, Al-Maliki's government is crumbling. - AMERICAblog: A great nation deserves the truth

Despite -- or because of -- Bush's mentoring and tough talk, Al-Maliki's government is crumbling. - AMERICAblog: A great nation deserves the truth:

"Five ministers suspended their participation in meetings of Prime Minister Nuri Kamal al-Maliki’s cabinet on Monday, sending a warning signal that they may pull out of his increasingly isolated government if their demands are not met.

The five are members of the secular Iraqiya coalition led by former Prime Minister Ayad Allawi, a moderate group whose lawmakers are drawn from across sectarian lines. Their move, coupled with the largest Sunni Arab bloc’s decision to withdraw its six ministers last week, struck yet another blow to Mr. Maliki’s faltering efforts to present his religious Shiite-led coalition as a “national unity” government."


It might be time to work towards getting someone else into power. al-Maliki may be a good man, and he may care deeply about his country but he has not shown that he can lead it through the problems that it is dealing with. What Iraq needs is a strong leader that the people can connect with, and that can bring all the parties to the table and get them to work out what are very hard problems. Al-Maliki for his time in power, has been a failure in getting the two sides together to even talk. It is time for a change of power in Iraq.

Karzai Admits No Progress On The Hunt For bin Laden | Air America Radio

Karzai Admits No Progress On The Hunt For bin Laden Air America Radio:

"Before leaving for his visit with President Bush, Hamid Karzai, Afghan president, on capturing Osama bin Laden said 'We are not closer, we are not further away from it. We are where we were a few years ago.'"


I think there are more important concerns than going after Bin Laden, the terror network that he inspires is not going to cease to exist if he is captured. If we happen to get intelligence on where he is, we should make an effort to arrest or kill him, or push to have it done by another government if they will not allow our forces. Terror does not begin and end with Bin Laden though, and long after he is gone, there will be enemies in this world that hate America. I think there are more important ways invest our capital resources and military resources than chasing down an old man in a cave.

Media Matters - Wash. Post reported on Giuliani's health plan, but not how he would pay for it

Media Matters - Wash. Post reported on Giuliani's health plan, but not how he would pay for it:

"Former New York mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani and other Republicans are touting approaches that would be less costly and would cover fewer people. This week
Giuliani released a plan, similar to an initiative that Bush has adopted, that would exclude up to $15,000 of a family's income from taxes if it was spent to purchase health insurance.Former New York mayor Rudolph W.

The easy problem to point out about a problem like this is it does nothing for the people who need help the most. It is great to offer to make funds that are paid towards medical health insurance tax deductible, but that doesn't help many who don't have that money to spend in the first place. It is like when you go to the store, and they have that great TV on sale for $500, wow you think to yourself I have that much, I can buy it. When you look closer you see that really it is $1000, with a mail in rebate for $500. While it could be honestly said that the consumer is only paying $500 for the TV, that does not help the consumer that doesn't have the $1000 to buy the TV so he can get the $500 back. People who cannot spend the money on health insurance, won't be helped by this in the same way.

Vanity Fair’s Exercise in Mapping the Post-Kevin Federline Era / Jossip


Vanity Fair’s Exercise in Mapping the Post-Kevin Federline Era / Jossip:


"From Cisco’s low-hangers to Joel Madden’s spermination of Nicole Richie
(the official acknowledgment came too late for press time), Nancy Jo’s basic
argument is this: These “It” couples aren’t made of love, but business prowess.
Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz make for a paparazzi-laden opening of his Angels
& Kings clubs while also delivering cross-over appeal with their fanbases.
Thanks to his engagement to Nicole Richie, mostly average DJ AM can command
five-figure fees to spin from L.A. to the East End. Harry Morton’s Pink Taco
restaurant blew up only when Lindsay Lohan latched on to his arm. And so
on."


If you want to get around Hollywood this might be a more important map than any street map that you might find at AAA, Google or Yahoo.

The Prodigal Daughter / Jossip

The Prodigal Daughter / Jossip:

"Slate has the Facebook-attained news that Rudy Giuliani’s daughter Caroline,
who starts her freshman year at Harvard next month, was until early this morning
a member of the Facebook group “Barack Obama (One Million Strong for Barack).”
Her estrangement from her father is hardly a secret: New York wrote that
Caroline reportedly didn’t tell her father when she was accepted at Harvard, and
Vanity Fair’s recent profile of Judith Giuliani quotes “a source friendly to
Giuliani” saying “Caroline is silent, but she was very traumatized by [her
parents’] divorce.” Caroline’s Facebook profile also describes her politics as
“liberal.”"


Looks like at least one of his children is not only refusing the support him in his run for higher office, but is rooting for the visiting team. Could Caroline be a Democrat, I think she better than anyone should know what kind of person her father is. All of Giuliani's children are now estranged from him.

Atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were nuclear attacks during World War II against the Empire of Japan by the United States of America under US President Harry S. Truman. On August 6, 1945, the nuclear weapon "Little Boy" was dropped on the city of Hiroshima, followed on August 9, 1945 by the detonation of the "Fat Man" nuclear bomb over Nagasaki. They are the only instances of the use of nuclear weapons in warfare.

The United States Department of Energy estimates that, at Hiroshima, the death toll from the immediate blast was roughly 70,000, with additional deaths occuring in the time soon after the explosion and in the decades that followed. The figures for Nagasaki are slightly less. Other estimates vary widely, and are as low as 74,000 for Nagasaki. In both cities, the overwhelming majority of the deaths were civilians.

The role of the bombings in Japan's surrender, as well as the effects and justification of them, has been subject to much debate.

On August 15, 1945 Japan announced its surrender to the Allied Powers, signing the Instrument of Surrender on September 2 which officially ended World War II. Furthermore, the experience of bombing led post-war Japan to adopt Three Non-Nuclear Principles, which forbids Japan from nuclear armament.

Paris Hilton doesn't Like Random Guys Who Want To Date Her:

"“It’s hard to move, but there are too many people who know where I live. There’s 20 tour buses coming a day.”
“Random guys from all around the world just showing up and leaving things. I’m scared.”"

It is true that her house was turning into a destination. There was video on the internet of fans waiting outside her house to see her. She comes out and they run over, can we get a picture - please please please. Paris being the sweet person that she is took the pictures with them, even when she was running late. I am glad that I don't have to live that way, I can understand why she would want to move.

Brett Ratner’s first sex surprise-Celebrity News | Pictures and Plastic Surgery

Brett Ratner’s first sex surprise-Celebrity News Pictures and Plastic Surgery:

"Brett Ratner’s first oral sex experience was with a man he thought was a
woman.The “Rush Hour 3″ director included a scene in the new movie which
features a girl taking off her wig leading to Chris Tucker’s character losing
his temper and accusing her of being a man. The filmmaker admits he based the
comical sequence on his own experience of sexual surprise."


While I am not shocked that this would happen to someone as greasy of Brett Ratner, this is a very funny tale. How bold to put something like that in a movie, knowing that the story would probably leak that it was based on reality.

Best Week Ever » Blog Archive » THE BABY ULTIMATUM: Parents Who Take Their Newborns to See Movies at 11 PM on a Sunday Should Be Sterilized

"What surprised me about this situation wasn’t so much that sociopaths are
allowed to bring such young children into a movie — much less procreate at all —
but more so that nobody said anything. NOBODY! Numerous attempts by Eagle-Eyed
Collins (me) to locate this child were unsuccessful. Weren’t the people sitting
next to this kid on the verge of absolutely losing their f**king minds?! About
45 minutes into the film, when it was clear this kid was being bottle-fed
cocaine, I offered up a nasty “Sssh!” to no avail. A few minutes later, another
woman seconded me. Are you all so spineless as to not stand up for a quiet
theater in which to be entertained?! SHAMEFUL"


Who would take their baby to see a movie at 11pm and let it cry through the whole thing. What was their concern for the child, that they kept up that late hour. If it was crying so then it must be have been unhappy to he there, to be upset to be there.

What was their concern for the other people who had to sit through the noise of the baby, after having paid for the movie. When you go to see a movie at that late hour you expect that it is to be an calm experience, one unhampered by the cries of a baby.

It is antisocial behavior to take a child of this age into a movie, a lack of public concern that is clearly disturbing. Movie theaters should not allow children into movies at that hour of the night.

Kathy Hilton Recalls Pain of Paris in Jail - Kathy Hilton, Paris Hilton : People.com

Kathy Hilton Recalls Pain of Paris in Jail - Kathy Hilton, Paris Hilton : People.com:

"For Kathy Hilton, the toughest part about daughter Paris Hilton's being in jail – and on the other side of the glass partition that separated them during visits – was 'seeing the rashes on her arms and face from the thin sheets.'

Equally difficult, Hilton, 48, tells PEOPLE after a screening of The Kingdom in Southampton, N.Y., was witnessing the correctional facility's guards physically pulling her 26-year-old daughter away after one visit, 'grabbing her under the arm' – and then seeing the words 'L.A. County' printed on the back of Paris's jail jumpsuit. "


I think one of the most unreported on facts of Paris Hilton's life is the relationship she has with her mother. The other starlets have such broken relationships with their mothers, and I think that could be a part of the reason that they end up in such trouble. While Paris isn't little miss innocent, I think she is the most stable of the current crop of Hollywood celebs, and her family is an important part in that. They took the time to make multiple visits to her in jail, not every ones family has done that much.

Britney Rumor Roundup: New Single, New Management? (X17 Online)

Britney Rumor Roundup: New Single, New Management? (X17 Online):

"We're also hearing that Britney's finally looking for help - or at least help running her career! Word on the street is that Britney's signed up with super-manager Jeff Kwatinez , although Kwatinez' office declined to comment when we called. "


This is good news for Britney, not only because running a family and taking care of herself and trying to be her own manager are just too much. It is also good because I think we all need someone outside ourselves who can tell us when we are making mistakes, and give us advice on what might be better choices. There are also rumors that she has a new single that could be coming out soon, that would give her career a much needed boost. She needs to start making news for her music again, or she is going to become a permanent wacko, like Michael Jackson.

Paris Hilton’s Boyfriend is Confused |

Paris Hilton’s Boyfriend is Confused :

"Atkins has merely hinted to his mystery woman’s identity, saying only that
her first name is similar to that of an animal which leaps through the air, a
statement the media believes is in reference to Brazilian beauty Bunchen. He
says, “I only met her about two weeks ago and we’ve hung out a lot. “We were
hanging out but I recently just went to New York and I sort of met this girl
over there, who is a pretty big supermodel.”"


Well I think this is good news for Paris because he looked like a total loser. I think that she should date Stavros, and get married and have kids with him. They actually make a good couple and seem to care about each other, he visited her in jail remember.

Back to the loser, seems he wants us to believe that he has jumped from dating Paris Hilton to dating Gisele Bundchen, yeah I am not going to believe that. I would need some photos and video of them together before I would think such a thing could be true. What would a super model like Gisele want with the T-Shirt King.

Britney Spears Meltdown #498 |

Britney Spears Meltdown #498 :

I thought we could present the profile as her comeback. Perhaps Britney’s story would be redemptive, like those of Angelina Jolie, Drew Barrymore and Mariah Carey before her.” Instead, Britney took the photos and bailed' she missed four scheduled interviews with writer Judith Newman, and the accompanying comeback story went untold.
Newman instead penned a story about the state of celebrities in 2007, and Allure crafted the cover line “Britney Spears: Tells Us Nothing and Everything.”"


Britney just seems to be having trouble keeping her shit together, girl you should do the interviews and tell people what is going on. The stories that they are getting from the media about you aren't good, and the only way to counter that is to put your own story out there. The magazine says that they were going to talk about her comeback, but I think she needs to actually make a come back first - which she can do, but hasn't.

"The first unremarkable installment of this Poor Man’s Indiana Jones (which you
will find on sale for $4.99 at your local Blockbuster, in mass quantities and
previously half-viewed) has clearly left moviegoers’ desire for bad storytelling
insufficiently fulfilled, and thus it is Hollywood’s job to satisfy their hunger
for a yet even more implausible storyline involving secret treasures, secret old
documents, the secret truth about the Abraham Lincoln Assassination (finally),
Watergate, more SECRETS!, and of course, Area 51. And what raises this already
great idea to genius level is that Kevin’s hacky plot premises - reminiscent of
a hopelessly deluded writer’s first screenplay attempt - are such cliches that
the studio won’t even have to bother paying for a script."


Of all the bad movies in all the world, why did they choose to make another National Treasure movie. The first one was so bad that I could hardly sleep through it. I imagine I will watch this one, when it comes to DVD and I can get it from the local store for 1$. Which is probably more than it is worth. A book that contains all the presidents secrets, that idea is so crazy, like Lincoln secretly knew who killed him, and put that secret in a book. I could go on and on about how stupid the preview alone is, "I'm going to kidnap the president", yeah good luck asshole.

It is a shame that it wouldn't work out with Tom, I think that he would have loved the chance to be himself for a change. One of the guys in the couple are reportedly going to have a fractious relationship with Terri Hatcher's character. Which is understandable, because gay men have so much stlye and she has so little.

I am not usually prone to believe what stars say just because they say it. If it is true that he hasn't seen her for months, then that does sound like they are just friends though. The rumors got started when they worked together on their movie, "The Holiday". It seems you can't make a movie with someone without the press saying you are dating. Of course a lot of people do end up dating their co-stars, Brad and Angelina.

Looks like the legal troubles between Denise and Charlie are getting serious again. It appears to center around the visitation rights that Charlie has with the kids. He has a new womyn in his life now, and doesn't think that he should be forced into supervised visitation. Honestly, how long has it been since he has gone on a rant, I say let him take the kids without the nanny being there to supervise. Just because he is a truther doesn't mean he isn't a good father.

While this is short term bad news for Lindsay, this isn't what is really important right now. I don't think recording a new album is what she is going to be doing in the near future anyway.

I don't know if this is normal, it might be nothing more than the standard of the long stand-off, but if this is the start of a new battle on the Korean Peninsula that is bad news for everyone.
