Quotes from Thomas Jefferson.....
'When we get piled upon one another in large cities, as in Europe, we shall become as corrupt as Europe.'
'The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not.'
'It is incumbent on every generation to pay its own debts as it goes. A principle which if acted on would save one-half the wars of the world.'
'I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.'
'My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from too much government.'
'No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms.'
'The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.'
'To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical.'
and my favorite:
'The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.'

The Soviets in Afghanistan....
...I don't know what to say about this pic, other than we have to subdue a country that lives by it's own rules. We Brits failed a long time ago and the Soviets found out the hard way (ok with some help from 'Charlie Wilson') They have no loyalty other than to themselves. Yet if we do not gain control of the region we will be there for a long time. How the hell do you deal with a people that has no concept of human decency? Genetic warfare springs to mind.

Blago's new job........
(2009-01-09) — Resolving a standoff between Senate Democrats and the embattled Democrat governor of Illinois today President-elect Barack Obama named Gov. Rod Blagojevich as special envoy to the middle east responsible for guiding peace negotiations between Israel, Hamas and Hezbollah.
“Rod has demonstrated extraordinary skill and persistence,” said Mr. Obama. “A month after getting arrested by the FBI, this guy is still in office. That’s the kind of character it’s going to take to gain credibility with Hamas and Hezbollah.”
Mr. Obama said he would dispatch Mr. Blagojevich immediately to the troubled region.
“I have already spoken directly with Hamas leadership,” said Mr. Obama. “They have agreed to provide housing and office space for Ambassador Blagojevich and his charming wife adjacent to a weapons depot to ensure their safety.”
