Regarding the 30 Greenpeace activists being charged. That is good news. Hopefully they are of pension age before they are released.

Thank goodness she was black. Obama’s got nothing he can use for race baiting. MSNBC must be very disappointed. Any Caucasian would have been somehow linked to the Tea party and Sharpton would be good to go for another week.
I did not realize Johnny Carson could sing. I don’t think I ever heard him sing before, and I watch Tonight Show for years.
Some way, some how, Obama’s gonna blame the ‘fiscal crisis’…

“That’s still not a valid reason to shoot her.”
I find this story fishy. Why would so many cops surround a vehicle with one young woman in it? And then kill her?
Were they afraid of what her real story was? Were they afraid that a black woman hated Obama so much that she wanted to ram the barricades around the White House? Were they afraid of the negative things she’d say about the Obamessiah?
Something about this shooting — a single woman with a baby in the car? — doesn’t pass the smell test.
The TEA Party lot and RINO’s should take a close look at how the Progressive Conservatives and REFORM Party in Canada, coalesced into the current successful Governing Conservative Party!
But is there a Stephen Harper type in the USA ?

“For whatever Greenpeace thinks, neither al-Qaeda, nor China, nor Russia are very much afraid of the European Union or the United Nations and their works and pomps. Such power as their humanitarian credentials holds is provided by the shadow of the Navy; the thing that holds them back in the long run isn’t the prestige of the UN; it is the reflected glory of the stuff Tom Clancy described in the “Hunt for the Red October.”
“The Tom Clancy Thread”
“I guess Greenpeace got lulled into complacency by the fearful water cannons of the Japanese and the mild penalties which were formerly the price their protests. They didn’t count on the Russians who don’t seem to care too much about their NGO and environmental activist credentials. It’s interesting to read the comments on some sites by outraged Belgians or New Zealanders proclaiming their indignation against “outlaw Russia”.
But they miss the point. Who’s going to stop Russia from doing what it wants? Will it be the Belgian Navy? Or the New Zealand Navy? Or the United Nations?
The great thing about the late Tom Clancy, who recently died at the age of 66, was that he reminded a cynical liberal American and European audience just what exactly stood between the world and countries like Russia.”

“To those poor men who have been damaged and don’t even know it–instead they’ve been diagnosed as having a fluoxetine or alprazolam deficiency and are treated until they end their lives in desperation.
This book is for you, with a prayer that you are in the future treated properly and that you get happy and whole again, at least as whole as those of us who are broken ever get.
And to my best bud, Mike, God rest your soul. Your life and dedications will not be forgotten. Thanks for being an example for those of us who are not as capable.”
