State Senate Supports Immigrant Walkout
I am going to restate what I already said from an earlier post.
TELL EVERYONE YOU KNOW WHO IS OUT OF WORK AND SICK AND TIRED OF THIS NONSENSE TO GO OUT AND TAKE THE JOBS THAT THESE IDIOTS ARE GOING TO BE DITCHING ON MONDAY. SHOW THEM YOU WILL DO THE JOBS THEY THINK YOU DON'T WANT.
Q [WaPo reporter Jim VandeHei] It's come to my attention that there's been requests -- this is a serious question -- to start using Charmin instead of Downy toilet paper in the Air Force one bathrooms, and that those have been denied. My question would be, is there a White House policy that all government TP have to be Downy?
MR. McCLELLAN: Never heard of any such thing. My TP's are on four
different rolls at all times.
Q Because you have four different TP rolls. But every time I've ever been --
MR. McCLELLAN: Every TP roll in the White House also has rolls every --
has a split roll selection, where they can --
Q VandeHei Well, they always seem to be Downy, and there's been requests, and these are paid for by taxpayer dollars. And my understanding is that you guys have to use Downy Air Force One. Is that true?
MR. McCLELLAN: First time I've ever heard of it. First time you've
brought it to my attention, meaning the first time the press corps has
brought it to my attention. In fact, I've used other TP on here.
Q VandeHei There's one --
MR. McCLELLAN: Hang on, Jim, come on. I've used other TP on
here, so I don't know where you're hearing that. But it's the first time
anyone in the press has raised that question with me.
Q VandeHei You've used TP other than Downy?
MR. McCLELLAN: On here, yes, sure.
Q VandeHei I've never seen -- they're always Downy, which a lot of people consider a Republican-leaning Toilet Paper.
Q VandeHei Scott, is it one -- on the airplane, is it one for all? I mean, if
it's Downy here, is it Downy everywhere?
MR. McCLELLAN: I think that certain areas may be interconnected, but
I'll have to double-check which.
Q VandeHei Is yours empty, wherever you are?
MR. McCLELLAN: Well, the bathroom, or the senior staff office,
the staff office, they're different TPs, and you can switch to different
TPs. I'm not sure if some of these in the back are connected to
some of the others that you are using to wipe right here, right now. It doesn't
look like it to me. I've never known anyone that's raised a complaint
about a request from back here to wipe with a different brand.
Q VandeHei I'm officially raising it and officially complaining about it. We're chafing from your right wing toilet paper and we won't take it anymore!
MR. McCLELLAN: Well, I'm going to go see if we can change the brand
for you. Have you called up?
Q [Agence France Presse photographer Tim Sloan] I was the Downy victim, and I was told -- the quote was, "No," when I asked for Charmin.
MR. McCLELLAN: I don't know who you talked to, so -- it didn't come to
my attention. You don't know who you talked to either?
Q Well, the magic people at the other end off the phone, and they told me I couldn't squeeze it either
MR. McCLELLAN: The magic people at the other end of the phone... Told you not to squeeze the Charmin... Well,I'll see if this cabin is --
Q I was told, "We don't use or squeeze the Charmin here, you can only use Downy."
MR. McCLELLAN: As I said, it's hard to respond to something when I don't
know who it is you talked to.
Q I used the phone back here.
MR. McCLELLAN: I find this all quite amusing, to tell you the truth. I
mean, there are a lot of people on this plane that do use that Toilet Paper.
Q I've never been told, no. They're such nice guys up there.
MR. McCLELLAN: First time you brought it to my attention. I'll go see
what we can do on it.
* * * * *
MR. McCLELLAN: We just called up. They're going to be changing it, at
your all's request, to the brand of TP that you requested, which is Charmin --
from the press corps.
Q Thanks, Scott.

You have got to see this, it starts out tame enough but once Neil hits a stride he puts Durbin on the ropes and keeps him there. Go Neil!!
Here is an article about Iran that you must read if you are interested in the current situation between them and the west. It affirms my contention that Iran have no intention of giving up nukes and every intention of diploming us into oblivion to make time for their nuclear research and development.
Check out this piece of the article, then read the entire thing from the link below.
From Debka.com
"Iran’s negotiating tactics are guided by the presumption that no accord is possible with the United States on the nuclear issue; but diplomacy of any form is to be encouraged to buy time for progress in its program in a better international climate."
One up for Tehran
Here is a little levity to go along with the imminent danger

Iran Ready to Transfer Technology From Breitbart this morning
Again today we have statements being made by Russia, China and Iran.
Iran says: "How are you going to prevent our nuclear activities by imposing sanctions? If U.N. Security Council sanctions are to be imposed on Iran, we will definitely suspend our cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency," Larijani said. He added that Western countries on the IAEA board "have to understand they cannot resolve this issue through force."
Russia and China Say:
"We see no alternative to the negotiations process," Russian Defense Minister Sergei Ivanov was quoted as saying by the Interfax news agency while in Beijing for a regional anti-terrorism meeting.
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang urged all parties "to show flexibility," saying the international community should not abandon efforts for a peaceful settlement.
The problem still is that none of the above are offering any kind of idea as to what sort of negotiations they think will bring this any further toward a good end for all parties. So I put it to anyone to tell me, what negotiations are going to make this all go away? What other possible solutions are there than military force to get Iran to stop enriching urainium? That is assuming they will not do it on their own with even the best incentive the west could give short of being blackmailed, which is essentialy what this feels like. Bottom line is Iran is doing one of two things... They are either using this situation as a tool to get things from the west they would otherwise not have been offered in a million years - and if that is it they are playing a wonderful hand of poker thus far - or they really are developing Nuclear Weapons with the intention to use them. Neither of which really matter if you take the U.S. stance that any of this is unacceptable to begin with. I am not sure what I believe at this point other than to agree with Condi when she says that a Nuclear armed Iran is NOT an option. Pray for our leaders, for this country and for God's hand upon this situation. We all need it.
Something just occured to me. Are the super bloggers becoming what they loath most? Elites unwilling to entertain the little guy or his/her opinions? Are the "Best (fill in blank) Blog awards giving these people a big head? It pains me to say this but when you (and you know who you are) feel you are to good, busy, intelligent, important, etc... to answer a regular guys/gals e-mail anymore, you might just be an elite blogger. Has your commentary become so narrow and self important that you are unwilling to entertain even opposing ideas from your own readership? If so, you might just be an EB.
Folks, to my understanding bloggers are a grass roots movement and no law degree, media credentials, bi-weekly appearences on the O'reilly factor, etc... should seperate us right? In fact maybe the lack thereof is what does seprate us from the MSM in the first place. I am not naming names but most of you know who they are if you have ever tried to contact them with what you feel is important information about one of their posts or God forbid tried to get them to link one of yours and been snubbed in favor of more sympathetic viewpoints or a cronies post instead. I am putting these bloggers on notice, your elitism is not going unnoticed and if you continue down the same path you will become no different than the MSM and the other media elites you abhor. Think about it and PTP!!!

Russia renewed its unwillingness to sanction Iran without concrete proof of a weapons program today. Saying "Sanctions can be discussed only when there are concrete facts showing that Tehran's nuclear activity is not exclusively peaceful," Russian foreign ministry spokesman Mikhail Kamynin told reporters."
Russia says it first in Feb 06
And again today
The problem with proof is that we have technology we don't want the rest of the world to know we have, least of all Russia or China. Or better, we think they might know already but we don't know how much they know and we don't wan't to confirm anything for them. Additionaly, we saw what happened when we did release intelligence about Iraq's weapons program... Iraq, like the rest of the world then knew what we knew and adapted accordingly by ditching everything we saw or moving it to another country (Syria, Iran?)
So do the Russians know what they are asking for? Do they know or believe they know we will never give up our intelligence sources and thus ask for proof in order to stall this process even further? Odd is the fact they Russia and China probably have something close to what we have in the ability to see and discern Iran's intentions toward Nuclear technology. In other words they probably know a lot of what we know already. So ask yourself, why if that is case do they not act, why are they stalling the progress toward sanctions? I am no conspiracy theorist mind you, but if this keeps up I may need to order a tinfoil hat of my own, cuz unless I am missing something, this is not right.
Who'd have thunk it huh? That crazy guy that thinks 9/11 was a US Government orcestrated event is in fact also a deviant, and abuser, a gambling and porn adict and maybe even a pedophile. I have to say I am not shocked, but I am disappointed. Sheen is a better than average actor. Two and a half men is a pretty kick butt show. Bummer is now I will not be able to look at it the same way again. It seems that is ever more often the case in hollywood these days. Just a short list of people who's film and TV shows I'll never watch, products I'll never buy, etc... because of their political or other rantings:
Barbra Streisand
Tim Robbins
Sean Penn
Alec Baldwin
Ben Affleck
Matt Damon
Jeneanne Garafalo
Charlie Sheen
Dixie Chicks
Susan Sarandon
...and there are surely more that I just can't think of right now. I agree with Laura Ingraham when she simply states "Shut Up and sing!"
I have not posted today partly because I just spent the last hour on the phone with 4 different people from Cingular Wireless. I call originally to try and report my daughter's phone stolen/lost. I was told right away that my account had been cancelled and informed that an early termination fee had been applied to my account. The only problem is I did not terminate my service, they did. Now, granted I am not trying to stiff them out of the bill I owe and lonf story short it was a mistake that the bill did not get paid to begin with. But for them to terminate my account without any notice and then charge me for the pleasure is equal to kicking me in the b@lls, then asking me to thank them for it. For the record I was willing to be stand up guy and pay the bill as long as they would wave that BS fee that should never have been there in the first place, but after two associates and 1 supervisor they were unwilling to wave the fee unless I turned my service back on and bought a new phone. So I will just deal with it another way I guess. But a big shout out to all of you Cingular customers out there... Don't drop the soap!
See below story from MSNBC. IFCO got busted...
Hundreds nabbed in immigration raid
I am disgusted to know that our children are being subjected to this in schools. Pray for these parents and for the adminstrators of this school. See below from Stop The ACLU
"While two parents in Lexington, Mass., are upset about the fact their second-grade son was read a fantasy book in school about two princes getting married, what makes them even more angry is the fact the boy's teacher said because same-sex marriage is legal in their state there is no way a mother or father can opt out a child from such experiences.
"We are outraged," parents Rob and Robin Wirthlin told the local Article 8 Alliance. "This is a highly charged social issue. Why are they introducing it in the second grade? And we cannot present our family's point of view to our children if they don't tell us what they're saying to them."
According to a statement from the traditional-values organization, March 24 the Wirthlins' second-grade son came home from Estabrook Elementary School and repeated to his mother the story read to him earlier that day about men getting married to each other. His teacher had read the book "King and King" to the class, in which a prince doesn't want to marry any princesses, but instead falls in love with a princess' brother and marries him in a big palace wedding.
The Wirthlins say they immediately contacted the teacher, Heather Kramer, who acknowledged she had read the book to the class and admitted that it was not part of the curriculum.
It was explained to the couple that since same-sex marriage is legal in Massachusetts, discussion of the matter is fair game — parents do not have to be informed before or after the issue is presented. Kramer reportedly told the Wirthlins that the theme of the day was "weddings" and the teacher wanted to present all points of view on the subject.
Does this kind of stuff even belong in a school, much less the second grade? No matter what your views are on gay marraige, this is a hot topic across the nation, and is a family values issue to many parents. In my opinion, this is nothing more than indoctrination of views that goes against the religious views of many families. To leave parents out of the loop on such a controversial topic, with no way to opt their child out and no notification so that an alternate view point can be presented is a pure attempt at indoctrination. If this were a debate topic in a highschool, I wouldn't have a problem…but it is clearly a one-sided view that has no place in a second grade classroom. Here's a note of advice for the gay activists: Trying to force your views on American children will not further the agenda of acceptance or tolerance, it will only cause backlash. Back off of the kids. "
I read a great post today from Carolyn Hileman at The Voice
She says:
"Announcing American’s right to work day!!! Brought to you by the illegal immigrants in America This announcement written by: Carolyn Hileman On May 1, 2006 the illegal immigrants that are in America ILLEGALLY will stage a walk out of business across this great country of ours, there in lies our opportunity to send them back. Yes that is right not only on that day is there a possibility that you might get a job but that you can make a loud resounding statement to our leaders that you do in fact want those jobs…. Since they seem to think they can bring us to our collective knees by staying home it is time to show them what Americans are made of and that we fight fire with fire. Everyone knows at least one person who needs a job and are not to proud to take what they can get till something better comes along. Maybe you are that person, and maybe this is your chance to not only help yourself but your country as well. They are going around saying that we American citizens are to lazy to work, only problem with that analogy is that we pay out more to our illegal residents in welfare and food stamps than to the average American citizens. Help me get the word out everyone I would love to see lines of Americans waiting for a job opportunity instead of a bunch illegal immigrants marching in our streets telling us what their rights are. Today we take back our country ONE JOB AT A TIME….."
I agree and will take it one step further. If you know an illegal who has been pissing you off with all of his/her rederic about aliens rights, etc... encourage them to stay home, offer to let them use your car to go to the beach. These few have to know that we are Americans, not doormats. Do your part America!!
Are there paralells? Certainly. It is chilling to put together the events unfolding now in our history in the context of Iran's statements and stated ambitions toward Israel. In the current debate I keep coming back to this:
Russia says it does not believe that sanctions or military force will solve the problem. It believes that diplomacy is the answer, but has as yet failed to offer any idea as to how diplomacy will solve this crisis. Russia says that Iran should not have Nuclear weapons out of one side of its mouth, while funding nuclear research and developement and selling Iran parts to produce nuclear energy out of the other.
Iran says it will never cease producing nuclear energy or its pursuit of nuclear technolgy out of one side of its mouth while at the same time saying it is open to negotiations with the IAEA regarding its nuclear program.
It boggles the mind to think that nobody is calling either country to make a definite statement and stick to it.
More mind boggling is the relativism that says Iran's facist rulers are not so far outside the norm as to warrant the utter contempt of civilized society. We have millions of Europeans calling the United States (the very bastion of civilization in the west) a tyranical power while at the same time either accepting or ignorring Iran's candid, blatant societal tyrany and hatred toward Israel and the west. Not to mention the veiled statements it has made about Israels coming extinction at the hands of "one storm".
As I said, chilling. I don't have the answer and would not claim to but someone had better stand up and let everyone else know that we are all in a pot of hot water and it is slowly begining to boil.

Good afternoon all, I hope you had a fantastic Easter/Resurection Day. God is good all the time!! Amen.
Well, I wanted to comment on the new Sony movie based on the book "The Davinci Code" before it made its way into your theatres and your minds (heaven forbid). Too many people much more adept at apologetics than I have torn this book and now this movie to shreds for me to try and do it with any degree of skill. So instead I bring you my personal favorites.
Sign a petition telling Sony what we know about their movie
The Davinci Hoax - Carl E. Olson and Sandra Miesel
The Davinci Code: Fact Or Fiction - Hank Hanegraaff
The Facts behind the Fiction - apologeticsindex.com
All of these brilliant men come to one conclusion, this book and its child movie are BOGUS with a BIG B. This is just another attempt to create doubt by coming in the back door. If they stick with the truth, they (just as did the pharassies and Teachers of Jesus; time) cannot show Jesus Christ to be anything but what He is without lying about Him and bringing false testimony against him.
This scripture lays it out perfectly
False Testimony against Christ
Matthew 26:65; Mark 14:64; John 10:33-38
I have for some time now been following a little known website call Debka. They are not quoted in the MSM web ver often if at allbut they are credible. They have sources that others do not. During OIF they were a day(s) ahead of the MSM on most stories and on occassion even weeks ahead. Check out their troubling story on Iran's secret nuke plant already in testing phase.
Iran's Secret Plant
Most worrisome to me was this potion in particular:
Hardline President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s claim of Iranian success in low-level uranium enrichment was more bombastic than frank. Before springing his disclosure at a sacred mausoleum in the northern town of Mashhad on April 11, DEBKAfile’s Iranian sources disclose he paid a stealthy visit to Neyshabour in Khorassan, 38 kms to the southeast.
There, he inspected a project he omitted to mention in his Mashhad speech about low-level enrichment, namely, a top-secret plant under construction that is designed to run 155,000 centrifuges, enough to enrich uranium for 3-5 nuclear bombs a year.
I love Michelle in general and most of what she has to say but I find myself for the second time having to call her on something she has posted. Last time it was this when she gave an example of Muslims seeing Allah's name in Arabic on a fish without even likening it to the many many more instances of Christians (namely Catholics) doing the same or worse. Today she is on Comedy central for censoring the dipiction of Mohammed in an episode of South Park. She has cried everything from censorship to cowardess to explain or goat the network's actions. She had never answered or commented on my letter regarding her Allah Fish post and thus far after two e-mails today she will still not comment on my objections to todays. They are as follows: Comedy Central may be a lot of things but cowardly and censoring are not two of them. Comedy Central airs some of the most vile trash I have ever seen on a non-pay channel. A good example would be their airing of a celebrity roast for Pamela Anderson where the F word was one of the tamer things to be said that night. Not to mention the wanton use of Sexual material and adult based programming that would make HBO or Cinemax blush. If they are guilty of anything it is Political Correctness or major Irony, but not cowardess by any stretch of the imagination.

While we are on the subject, why does it take their censorship of a stupid cartoon to get our ire up? This is one of the most vile channels on the cable dial and as I said it is not even a pay channel (at least not from my cable company). We should be more upset about what they are showing nightly than this one incident, however clueless. What is the deal??
