Courthouse Killers, Russians on our Doorsteps and Global Warming Madness

Convicted courthouse killer Brian Nichols will spend the rest of his life in prison without the possibility of parole. However, he has been spared of the death penalty. The folks around Georgia are pissed. They wanted his head on a platter. They've discussed changing Georgia death penalty law to make it easier to execute criminals. Although I have no love for a killer such as Nichols, I'm happy he wasn't given the death penalty. I just don't believe that a man (or a group of men) should decide when another man leaves this earth. I firmly believe that's between him and The Creator.


Russian warships are on their way to Cuba. Latin America is having a summit; and the guest stars are China, Russia and Iran. Somebody please explain to me why nobody cares. We are quickly losing our influence on the world as we are losing our money. Again, please someone tell me why this isn't important.

Meanwhile, war widows are being denied benefits because of a "computer glitch".

President Bush goes to Iraq and some reporter throws a shoe at him. The President was a good sport and laughed it off. But, I'm pissed that this guy tried to assault our President. I hope that one of the Secret Service guys gave this guy the business afterwards. UPDATE: I missed the fact that shoe throwing is considered a tremendous act of disrepect in the Arab world. Apparently, this guy was also sending a political message against our presence.

In an act that is designed to empower the moderates, Israel frees over 200 Palestinian prisoners.

Obama's version of the New Deal looks like it will cost over $1 trillion over two years. This is exactly what I predicted. Since Republicans gave $700 billion to their cronies without question, the Dems will do the same thing, only bigger. It will take about twenty years and a lot of pain in our country before we have a "real" conservative administration.

If global warming is true, why has it been so cold outside? Well, that's because of global warming.

It's wild that whenever Muslims commit an act of terrorism, people question why Muslims have been silent. However, what's more wild is that these folks mainly ignore the Muslims that have condemned these actions.

It's funny how the "holier than thou" types are easily caught up in their own little controversies.
