Islamofascists Defacto Repeal of Free Speech

COLUMNIST OFF THE AIR AFTER ABC/DISNEY IS INTIMIDATED BY CAIR

Yesterday Michael Graham wrote in his column: "I take no pleasure in saying it. It pains me to think it. I could very well lose my job in talk radio over admitting it. But it is the plain truth: Islam is a terror organization."

Yowch - talk about not P.C.! This is chutzpah!

And then his fears came true.
Hours after his column appeared here, Graham, a mid-morning talker at WMAL in Washington, D.C., was suspended without pay pending an investigation. Graham's column and previous on-air comments were not the first time he's had a run-in with CAIR.

CAIR seems to act similarly to what an Islamofascist ACLU would do.

"Because of the mix of Islamic theology that ? rightly or wrongly ? is interpreted to promote violence, added to an organizational structure that allows violent radicals to operate openly in Islam's name with impunity, Islam has, sadly, become a terrorist organization. It pains me to say it. But the good news is it doesn't have to stay this way if the vast majority of Muslims who don't support terror will step forward and re-claim their religion."

Too true!

Rampant Judicial Tyrrany Yet Again!

Ohio Prosecutor Extorting First Amendment

It's hard to imagine judicial abuse getting much worse than this, but then again, since this is all dealing with lawyers, I'm SURE if they put their mind to it they could get even more outrageous.

This is so far beyond the pale that the mind boggles to consider it!
Read it and weep!

H/T to Emperor Misha on this one. He's right - these weasels actions DO deserve a wide audience, and appropriate action in response.

Ask What You Can Do To Get To Mars

If God had meant for man to fly in space, he would have given him a brain to figure out how to build and navigate spaceships! Now, that THAT issue is settled, the Chief strongly believes that we need to be pushing ourselves into that great beyond.

For many years people have asked the ever so important question, "Why Mars - why should we go to Mars?" For every individual who ponders this question there is a unique response. There is no correct answer to the conundrum and there is no single best answer either. Everyone must challenge their own intellect and form their own opinions on why, or why not, which brings about the focus of this rant. The driving question for those of us already dedicated to human space exploration should not be "Why Mars", but rather "What?" Mars. As in, what will you do to help set the human race on the path to Mars? It is as cliché as "everyone has to do their part" and as direct as John F. Kennedy?s famous speech "ask not what your country can do for you - ask what you can do for your country."

It's a universal principle that anything that exists is either expanding and growing, or else it is contracting and dying. This applies to humanity as well as anything else. We need to be moving along...if we don't we will surely go down the tubes.

Mars is a goal worthy of only the greatest efforts that we as a civilization can offer. We cannot garner the social, political and economic momentum on the blind faith of assured success alone. We cannot fly to Mars "on the wings of love," or even fuel our rockets with hopes and dreams. Instead, it is by the sweat of our brow, the ache of our muscles and the drive of our will that we have always blazed the trail of exploration, and will continue to do so in the future.

There's more - take a look at it.
