MSNBC - Allawi: Saddam connected to al-Qaida:
Brokaw: Prime minister, I'm surprised that you would make the connection between 9/11 and the war in Iraq. The 9/11 commission in America says there is no evidence of a collaborative relationship between Saddam Hussein and those terrorists of al-Qaida. Allawi: No. I believe very strongly that Saddam had relations with al-Qaida. And these relations started in Sudan. We know Saddam had relationships with a lot of terrorists and international terrorism. Now, whether he is directly connected to the September - atrocities or not, I can't - vouch for this. But definitely I know he has connections with extremism and terrorists. Brokaw is a tool, a non-thinking sheep of a journalist, what a stupid question. He's obviously anti-Bush. I say this to all like him. THINK, before you repeat! posted by The General @ The hottest thing in town

Godwin's Law [The Jargon Dictionary]: "Godwin's Law
Godwin's Law prov. [Usenet] 'As a Usenet discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one.' There is a tradition in many groups that, once this occurs, that thread is over, and whoever mentioned the Nazis has automatically lost whatever argument was in progress. Godwin's Law thus practically guarantees the existence of an upper bound on thread length in those groups. However there is also a widely- recognized codicil that any intentional triggering of Godwin's Law in order to invoke its thread-ending effects will be unsuccessful.

Ronald Reagan and the American Century posted by The General @ Farewell, My Hero.
It just seems unfathomable that in that casket, under that flag, is Ronald Reagan. He was a man so full of life, and to me, larger than life. I suppose its so hard to believe that he is now gone because I know that he will be with us all forever. To me, he's always been there. My first memory of politics came during the 1984 Presidential campaign. I was 9 years old. I was too young to truly understand what was going on, but I did know one thing: Ronald Reagan was good and he loved America. I learned patriotism from my father, so I knew that if Ronald Reagan loved America...well, that was enough for me. As it turns out, Ronald Reagan has been an inspiration for me since then to learn more about America and politics. Since I was 9 I've been a conservative Republican. I majored in Political Science. Politics and patriotism have played vital roles in my life, and in that regard, Ronald Reagan has been my hero. But not only that: Reagan truly believed in America and Americans. We are the shining city on the hill. We are the beacon of freedom in the world. America is the land of opportunity. Where else can a man like Reagan, born of humble beginnings, grow up to be, not only the leader of the free world, but the Great Liberator of the enslaved world. Reagan leaves quite a legacy behind: The end of Communism, the revitalization of the US economy, the rebuilding of the military, changing the face of American politics, and a renewal of the American spirit. His story is inspiring to all, and gives me great hope that I can succeed in my endeavors if work for it. That is the opportunity that America provides. That was his message, and it definitely got through to me. Farewell, my hero. You are loved. You will never be forgotten. posted by The General @ Friday, June 11, 2004The Real Reagan Record on National Review Online

Tear Down this Wall posted by The General @ Thursday, June 10, 2004Larry Kudlow on Ronald Reagan & Reaganomics
Larry Kudlow on Ronald Reagan & Reaganomics on NRO Financial: "At bottom, what became known as Reaganomics was a new pro-growth policy mix of tax incentives at the margin and stable money. But there was more. The Californian launched a massive military buildup totaling about $1.5 trillion. He deregulated oil prices, proving the conventional wisdom wrong as energy became much cheaper. He launched U.S.-Canadian free trade. He was unyielding in his opposition to the air-traffic controllers� strike, firing thousands of these government workers and ending the anti-growth union stranglehold on private industry. He created individual retirement accounts and 401(k)s, giving birth to the investor class. He also slashed social spending by reducing domestic program levels (excluding Social Security and health care) by nearly $50 billion in 1981. That amount would come to about $90 billion today.

by Bruce Bartlett posted by The General @ Reagan won the Cold War!
Gorby won a Nobel Peace Prize...his side LOST the Cold War!!!! How is it that liberal elitists heap all these praises onto to that Red for "reforming" the Soviet Union! Any credit should be duly heaped on to Ronald Reagan! He stared down Gorby and Gorby blinked. Reagan never blinked. He never waivered. He said he would take them out and that is what happened. Reagan did it without firing one bullet, one missle or one bomb.
All the libs who were agonizing over the Soviet power in the late 70s and during the 80's now claim that the USSR was on a decline and was going to collapse anyway and Reagan deserves credit only for not dropping the ball near the basket. That's called jumping on the bandwagon. To use an imperfect analogy, in baseball, if a pitcher enters the game while its team is losing, only to have the team come back and scores the go ahead runs while that pitcher is on the mound, that pitcher gets credited for the win. Well, not only is Ronald Reagan the pitcher of record during the Cold War, his team clearly won. America was down to the Soviets during the 70's due to the loss in Vietnam, and the Nixon and Carter policies of detente. Reagan took the ball and dominated the opposition. Additionally, at the plate, he hit the ball out of the park with his policies. While I'm at it, he was the manager, too. Anyway, my point is that we don't credit the NY Yankees for the Florida Marlins World Series victory last fall. To the victor go the spoils. We won, they lost. Reagan deserves the credit. He knew how to win the Cold War, told us what he would do, and then did it. The result? As he said. The communist regime ended up on the ash heap of history. And we're all better off. posted by The General @ Thomas Sowell: Ronald Reagan (1911-2004)
Thomas Sowell: Ronald Reagan (1911-2004): " Where the new President would really get his comeuppance, the smart money said, was in foreign affairs, where a former governor had no experience. Not only were President Reagan's ideas about foreign policy considered naive and dangerously reckless, he would be going up against the wily Soviet rulers who were old hands at this stuff." posted by The General @ GeorgeWBush.com :: Reagan Remembered
