Condi's Getting Respect

Condi Rice has topped the list of the most powerful women in the world for the second year in a row. Take that, Hillary.

Changing Tune

"We have to respect that any nominee to the Supreme Court would have to defer any comments on any matters, which are either before the court or very likely to be before the court. This has been a procedure which has been followed in the past and is one which I think is based upon sound legal precedent."

Can you guess who said that? Suprise! It was Ted Kennedy speaking about the confirmation of Thurgood Marshall in 1967. My, my, Teddy certainly has a different tune when a Conservative nominee is before him.

Oliver Stone is a Lunatic

Here is what Oliver Stone had to say about 9/11 the other day:

"There was an over-reaction after 9/11. Bush was given enormous powers and misused them. He created a war in Iraq that has further helped bust the economy, and has led to civil war there."

This is exactly the liberal mentality I was applauding Blair for confronting. There was not an "over-reaction" after 9-11. If anything, there was an under-reaction. The American people, and the people of the world, have gone back into their merry slumber. The terrorists, on the other hand, are still working to kill your family.

Stone is working on a movie about 9-11. Mark my words, this will be the biggest distortment of the truth since Michael Moore's last film. What's worse is the fact that a lot of people will see his insane ramblings and hold them up as facts. Oliver Stone is not a rational person. I have met him twice, and both times he seemed incredibly intoxicated and talked like a crazy person. It makes me sick that a major Hollywood studio has given him money to do this. Hopefully, it comes back to bite them in the ass.

Blair's Got the Right Idea

From Boortz:

British Prime Minister Tony Blair's speeches and response to the attacks on his country by Islamic terrorists have been right on target. In fact, the Democratic party here in the United States could take a few lessons from Blair. Just take a look at some of his most recent statements yesterday about the London train and bus bombings:

"Let us expose the obscenity of these people saying it is concern for Iraq that drives them to terrorism. If it is concern for Iraq, then why are they driving a car bomb into the middle of a group of children and killing them?"

Exactly. But you see, to the left in this country and elsewhere, all terrorism everywhere is the result of our invasion of Iraq. Why...if we had just not set foot in Baghdad 2 1/2 years ago, none of this would be happening! Not even 9/11! Never mind that Islamic terror attacks have been going on against the United States for decades, with us doing little or nothing about it. Not this time.

We're always told by the Democrats that our standing in the world has suffered at the hands of the Bush administration, that the goodwill we received after 9/11 is now gone. Doesn't look that way from another of Tony Blair's statements, also from yesterday:

"Whatever excuse or justification these people use, I do not believe we should give one inch to them, not in this country and the way we live our lives here; not in Iraq; not in Afghanistan; not in our support for two states, Israel and Palestine; not in our support for the alliances we choose, including with America."

He also made a statement that could apply to quite a few people in this country: "September 11 for me was a wake up call. Do you know what I think the problem is? That a lot of the world woke up for a short time and then turned over and went back to sleep again." People have already forgotten about 9/11 and it will probably take another attack for the public to wake up.

Perhaps Europe is finally getting the message that the appeasement route doesn't work. Now if only we could convince the left in this country.
