Dave says, Sean Penn is a Slime Ball... Film at 11!

Okay, I had a nice little stream of consciousness going regarding the Mitt Romney altercation with waitress Michelle Griffin but I had to cut things short. Mitt was right and Michelle is a bitter, bitter woman. Moving on...

The topic of interest today, and I don’t know why it is, but it is… Sean Penn’s recent visit with Chavez. I have never been a big Sean Penn fan and never will be but here are the facts:
1. Sean Penn visited with Hugo Chavez.
2. Sean Penn applauded Hugo during a speech that ripped on America.
3. (According to Ian James AP reporter) “Chavez met privately with the 46-year-old actor, (Sean Penn) for two hours Thursday, praising him as being "brave" for urging Americans to impeach President Bush.” And to elaborate on #2
4. Hugo’s speech continues: "If the people of the United States, those millions and millions of poor people ... if that nation realizes what is truly happening here, there would be a revolution in the United States," Chavez said, eliciting applause from Penn.
5. Sean Penn is an idiot, (I am embarrassed for him.)

Here is where I stand. Enough with political correctness. Enough with celebrity arm chair politicians (Jane Fonda Syndrome). America was founded by loyalty, trust and great personal risk, and “In God We Trust” not Allah. If you have a problem with that, leave. Jane Fonda is a traitor to our country while Sean Penn moves ever closer to that moniker.

The American flag and flags of its 50 states are the only flags that should fly on United States soil-not Mexico's flag. English is our language. If you don’t speak or read it, learn or stop complaining. Drivers license manuals should be written in one language, English. If you cannot read the English version don’t drive. Road signs are written in English not Spanish.

Profiling is effective and should be embraced. The ACLU is evil as are Hillary and Bill Clinton, Vladimir Putin along with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad who should be dipped in batter and fried. George Bush truly believes he is doing the right thing and maybe he is. Ted Kennedy is a buffoon. Nancy Pelosi is something not pleasant like the scent of popcorn flatus... And finally, our country is in chaos thanks in major part to the liberal thirst for power, a liberal agendized media and Harry Reid, stoopid Harry Reid.

I'm putting myself in the pillory today, I need the rest.

How we will win in Iraq

Regarding war, whatever happened to the element of surprise? This surprise kept the enemy’s anxiety at a high level. By not letting the enemy know what was coming next is the greatest weapon we have. This constant uncertainty weakens the enemy.

The American media machine has whipped us all into the misguided belief that we have the right to know everything. This belief is wrong and has neutered our military. If I tell you my next move in a chess game before I make it and why I am making it, the game becomes impossible to win.

Like the above mentioned chess game, Iraq has become a quagmire because there is no surprise. Democrats are fighting the Republicans. Republicans are seen to defect and the whole world watches us make fools of ourselves. In America, it is not us against them. It is all for one and one for all. We have forgotten the basis of our past success. We have forgotten that this country is “one nation under God and indivisible.”

We have weakened our nation to a point of global ridicule by airing our dirty laundry. Every goofy statement the President makes is broadcast to the world. Every ignorant thing Hillary Clinton says or the way she says it is broadcast to the world. We look like a nation of fools. We have lost our integrity. As our nation continues to self destruct through propaganda, power, greed, immorality, lies and misinformation, the world looks on with a smirk.

NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, FOX, what is the payoff for scooping a story? Is money really worth it? Is that all our country means to you? Money? Greed will kill this nation just as our enemy hopes it will. Their eyes are open to the fact that we are killing ourselves. We are destroying what so many have given their lives for. We have broken the sacred trust to those men and women who have willingly laid down their lives for this country. There is no honor in a divided nation.

The war in Iraq can not be won with the current demand of complete disclosure of every move we make. It can not be won by letting the enemy know when we are going to leave. A scheduled withdrawal is ludicrous. It’s like a police officer telling a bank robber that if he does not stop running, he is going to quit the chase in 3 minutes and go home.

To politicians: You are human beings just like the rest of us. You are paid to serve the country, not yourselves. You are not paid to further your careers through deceit, greed and manipulation. Respect is earned not by your wealth but by the good you do.

What have we become? The polarization of our country is just what the enemy wants and is so easily seen every minute of every day on no less than 50 satellite channels. If we want to fix the problems of the world, we need to fix ours first. That is how we will win in Iraq.

Who should be in today's pillory? You decide.

Coming soon to a network near you: The war in Iran

As the US is about to attack Iran, one wonders if this will escalate into more badness for Iraq or if the insurgents will be called home to fight and then rebuild Iran. In a peculiar way a US attack in Iran will be a good way to see how much trouble Iran has been causing in Iraq.

Iran has had a vested interest in keeping a good fight going in Iraq. They have kept our military pretty busy there and probably think that with us blasting Iraq, we won’t have the resources for conflict in Iran. This however will backfire for them because there will be no ground forces in Iran, only missile and aerial attacks. The conflict in Iran will have actual targets and not an endless flock of whack-a-mole meat sacks with guns.

As we begin to lambaste Iran’s nuclear facilities and related infrastructure, it will be interesting to see how the war in Iraq will slow to a crawl if not stop altogether. Regarding the third aircraft carrier now delicately positioned near the coast of Iran, one can’t help wonder if Iran’s religious sociopath presidential puppet master will finally crack his leathern poker face. It’s about to be the “6-Million All In” hand at the gaming table and I’m guessing the outcome will not be Sharia Law for all.

Logistically one has to wonder if Iran has been the target all the time. If so, President Bush has been playing his cards very close to his vest. If the citizens of Iran would have put up more resistance to their creepy extremely evil regime, all this would probably not be happening.

If the soon to become war in Iran does not significantly slow the conflict in Iraq, it is likely that civil war will be the only way to make any progress there at all. One major miscalculation of President Bush is that he assumed the people of Iraq would rally around the cause. He unfortunately was wrong. If the people of Iraq want “freedom” then they will need to fight for it just like we did.

As a message to Iran, North Korea, Russia and Venezuela- America may be enduring a bit of mud slinging amongst our leaders, but we will unite like nothing you have ever seen before if you “really” threaten our way of life. Your suicide attacks hurt people and ruin families but the spirit of America is something you can’t take away.

President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, you have a very nice blog to the American people. Some even believe that all you want is to live in peace, but we know different don’t we… wink, wink.

The Pillory is closed today.

Adolf Hitler's America

A letter to our leaders:

What makes you think you are more intelligent than founders of our country? More inspired than Abraham Lincoln? What makes you think that America was a creation based in stupidity?

When accepting the Republican nomination in 1858, Abraham Lincoln delivered a powerful speech. One phrase stands out above all in this speech, "a house divided against itself cannot stand." Those words are just as true today as they were in 1858. The actions of you, our esteemed leadership have divided our house. Honesty, virtue and integrity have no place in your souls. You stand against everything your opponent stands for, even if your opponent is right. You are seduced by power and embrace whatever standard fits your perception to retain it.

As leadership in our nations highest posts fight for power, you spit in the faces and trample on the graves of truly great leaders like Abraham Lincoln. You deride the very essence of what America was. Should our country survive this wave of irrational subreption, this generation of politicians will be forever remembered for only one thing, stupidity. Disgrace will be your legacy.

America was founded on a common cause: The cause of freedom. Freedom from tyranny and oppression. Freedom from what you “politicians” are becoming. If rules and laws don’t fit your agenda, you change them. If “In God We Trust” doesn’t fit your agenda, you remove Him. If you can lie about your opponent for gain, you will do it.

As Adolf Hitler said “By the skillful and sustained use of propaganda, one can make a people see even heaven as hell or an extremely wretched life as paradise." You as leaders of our country have adopted Adolf Hitler's approach to control. You use his demonic advice for what? The next election?

The mill stone is chained to the neck of this once great nation, and she is hovering over the abyss. America is not your country, it is our country. You only represent us.

"A house divided against itself cannot stand." Abraham Lincoln, 1858
