I saw a piece on tv news concerning the building of a Muslim mosque in a redneck state. The yahoos are all up in arms over this terrible happening. Of course, they have never heard of the Constitution. Nor do they want to.

AN EVIL MAN

I want to be the first to say that Gadhafi is the Adolf Hitler of Morth Africa. May his fate be the same as Hitler's, only much sooner.

"The evil that men do-------"

Concerning nuclear power plants: As in all human endeavours, if there is a chance that something will go wrong, it most likely will. This thought has been lurking in the back of my mind from the earliest days of nuclear power.
I remember Hiroshima/Nagasaki, We got all of our news by radio and newspaper at that time. I remember those events. I was a paperboy. I was waiting with the other paperboys for the delivery truck bringing the newspapers for us to fold and deliver to our subscribers, I opened my bundle and the headlines screamed out at me concerning the destruction of Hiroshima by this new monster of a bomb. Incomprehensible! Beyond all belief. We didn't know at that moment that the war was almost at an end. Soon we would learn, and it was a great relief. Later came concern and fear. Concern and fear has never left. Maybe sublimated. Maybe ignored. Never purged from the subconscience.

DESTRUCTION IN JAPAN

Seeing on television the grim images of total destruction in Japan made me think of the old radio drama by Orson Welles,THE WAR OF THE WORLDS. The radio show was broadcast in 1938. My mother and grandmother were in a room with closed doors listening to the broadcast. It was done as a real event, and fooled millions into thinking it was true. My brother and I walked into the room where they were listening. We were immediately run out. I remember the grave faces of mother and grandma. I was only 5 years old. I still remember.
The next radio broadcast I remember was December 7th, 1941. That was real.


TRAPPED IN THE WRECKAGE
ARE THE SOULS OF THE PEOPLE
THEY WILL RISE AGAIN

DEAL WITH THE DEVIL

My thought for the day. Nuclear power is a deal with the Devil. The more we have to depend on it, the more we are in thrall to the Devil. Nuclear reaction is a miniature Hell. When it goes out of control,it is Hell on Earth. Will the day come when it cannot be controlled?
Is it not better to use less power and use it more wisely? Conserve and preserve.

"Radical" Islam

The fool, Congressman King of New York is going to hold "hearings" on the "radicalization" of Islam in the United States. What is with this jerk? Is causing trouble his reason to exist? And for sure, he will cause trouble.
I expect that if he is allowed to proceed, his hearings will do far more to radicalize the Muslims than any current events are doing. Lets face it. The VAST majority of Muslims who are citiaens of the United States ate loyal and patriotic. The fool King, if allowed, may do great damage to this. Loyal citizens will think since thay are being tarred by the brush of hatred, they may as well hate back.
Maybe this is what King wants. More hatred. More war. More death. More destruction.
Just what we need. Another Joe McCarthy.

HYPOCRITES-APOSTATES-BLASPHEMERS

Everytime I hear a politician say, "What would Jesus do?", it rankles me no end. I would love to get in his face and say; "You have no idea what Jesus would do, and I'm sure you don't care what Jesus would do. You only invoke the name of Jesus to make a cheap political point in a feeble attempt impress the voters with your religiosity. Sir, I say that you are a hypocrite and a blasphemer. If there is a Hell, other than the one you are making here on on Earth, you will surely take up residence there in due time, but not soon enough for me."
