Political SIgns of the Times from CNS
Cybercast News Service (CNS) has a whole series of political stories of the week, that when taken together paint an rather interesting (and to me, mostly heartwarming) snapshot view of the current state of politics, etc. It's not often that so much of interest in in one spot at the same time. For your consideration....
Condie Rice Has Tough Words for Iran
http://www.cnsnews.com//ViewForeignBureaus.asp?Page=\\ForeignBureaus\\archive\\200502\\FOR20050204d.html
OH NO! How could a SECRETARY OF STATE actually come out and comment on the emperor's new clothes - in this case the fact that the peaceful Islamic Republic of Iran continues to support terrorists, and is also going full-bore to build nuclear weapons. What's one to do? Stay tuned for...
Reporter Questions Rice's 'Strong' Words on Iran
http://www.cnsnews.com//ViewPolitics.asp?Page=\\Politics\\archive\\200502\\POL20050204a.html
NBC's Andrea Mitchell, apparently thinks that it's her duty to defend the Iranians against the evil United States who are picking on them through "harsh" statements from Secretary Rice. Once again, the MSM comes through, proving by it's esteemed representatives that they have lost what vestages of patriotisms that they may have once had, sometime in the 1950's. perhaps.
Bush Promotes 'Freedom's Advance' in Middle East
http://www.cnsnews.com//ViewForeignBureaus.asp?Page=\\ForeignBureaus\\archive\\200502\\FOR20050203f.html
Not only is the Secretary of State gettin' uppity, the President himself is showing the unforgivable bad taste not only to not back down from the remarks of the Inaugural, but to reaffirm and extend them in the State of the Union. Shocking! No president has been so outspoken since the evil days of the Dark Lord Ronaldus Magnus Reagan...and look what happened then! (Oh, yeah, we won the cold war. Never mind.)
Congresswoman Attempts to Redefine the Phrase 'Occupying Force'
http://www.cnsnews.com//ViewPolitics.asp?Page=\\Politics\\archive\\200502\\POL20050203b.html
How delightful to witness this sort of adept footwork worthy of the heyday of Astaire and Rogers! It's not often that such normally unashamed liberals as (Viet?)Cong. Lee (D-TX) show such a determination to shuffle around what seem to me to be the blatantly seditious statements of Nancy (Bella) Pelosi. Not to fear, SOME libs can still stand tough for the advocacy of Idiotarinism (term adopted from Emperor Darth Misha's blogsite) as proven by fellow Bear Flag Peoples Republic Cong. Maxine Waters.
'Celebrity Backlash' Helped Re-Elect Bush, Actor Says at Capitol Hill

Another amazing taste of reality in the world.
General's Remarks Prompt Furor
http://www.cnsnews.com//ViewCulture.asp?Page=\\Culture\\archive\\200502\\CUL20050204a.html
Here's also more coverage of USMC General Mattis, for daring to express the thoughts of a warrior, not a P.C. paper shuffler. Someone in the military who is willing to actually unashamedly kill people and break things in the course of fighting a war? What's next...someone advocating VICTORY? Unheard of!
This has already been commented on by the Chief, but it's still worth reiterating.
Saudis Accused of Spreading 'Hate Propaganda' in US
http://www.cnsnews.com//ViewNation.asp?Page=\\Nation\\archive\\200502\\NAT20050201a.html
Where is the Alien and Sedition Act of 1797 now that we REALLY need it? Perhaps we can go after them for hate crime violations - oh, yeah, that doesn't count against Judeo-Christians. Oh well.
Pro-Family Groups Continue Push to Rein in Media Indecency
http://www.cnsnews.com//ViewCulture.asp?Page=\\Culture\\archive\\200502\\CUL20050203b.html
With major cable carriers announcing that they will now offer hard-core pornography as part of their packages, these groups look more and more like they have a point.
