How Can I Support McCain

I know the Republican thing to do would be to get in line behind McCain and push him through because he's the choice of the people. Well, I'm having a very hard time with just what "Republican" is all about these days. After countless infomercials and cosponsored bills with Ted Kennedy (D) I'm having a very hard time coming to grips with just what "Republican" is. What does McCain have to offer in the way of securing our borders? How does he plan to handle the attack on private health care? How do I support a candidate that doesn't agree with most of the primary purposes of the "Republican" party?

...and he's mean.

Can someone give me valid reasons to support him? Please help!

Adm. Fallon Resigns. HOORAY!

There are many people debating or not Fallon's resignation is yet another sign that this administration stinks. Personally, I don't even care about that. I just happy he's gone. He had a crap sense of security and no clue what information warfare means. He would frequently bully computer people into permitting him to do things even though they grossly violated network security. I once had his aid apologize to me because he was suck an ignorant ass.

Was he a great commander? Maybe in his time, but in the ever changing world of security he was an absolute failure. If he'd have done the same things he did a Pacom 20 years ago he'd have been reduced to Seaman Recruit and booted from the military. Being someone that had to assist in cleanups on a near weekly basis for his command's messes I am intimately familiar with his lack of security.

To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if the link'd WaPo article was absolutely true about how worthless he was. I, for one, am happy he is resigning. Good riddance to bad rubbish. 

Eliot Spitzer is "Client 9". Who's 1-8?

In a move bringing him closer to the Clinton family, Eliot Spitzer has been brought up on charges of soliciting prostitution. Good old, "client 9" from what reports say. Yep, a nice fat black eye for Democrats. Big deal. Compromising yourself in this manner isn't a Democrat or Republican issue. It happens across the board. It's not going to be over any time soon either. It's long past being a D/R game of gotcha. It loosens my faith in government at the roots to see so many who've been entrusted "by the people, for the people" turn out this way.

So anyway, if Eliot Spitzer is Client 9 who are Clients 1 through 8? Are they going by a ranking structure? Would 1 through 8 be more powerful than Spitzer? Is Slick Willy on the list?

Of course, I highly doubt any reporter will ask who the others are, and I doubt even more anyone would tell them if they asked. Maybe a freedom of information act request would do it?

Since I'll probably never see any of the other numbers I'll just make my own completely fabricated list. Feel free to make your own:

1. Bill Clinton

2. Dick Cheney

3. Nancy Pelosi

4. Ted Kennedy

5. John McCain

6. Howard Dean

6. Sean Hannity

7. Hillary Clinton

8. Barack Houssein Obama (HT Teach)

Hopefully I can start a political meme here. Who are your 8 clients?

How to Crank Your Ratings

So according to TTLB I'm currently # 126544, a Multicellular Microorganism. I have a grand total of ONE link from Beloved Leader.

My Sitemeter is showing a pitiful one hit average per day. My ratings absolutely stink.

This is a prime time to show everyone exactly how to market one's self.

So here's what's going to happen. I'm going to show you, the blogging public at large how to win friends and influence people. No, I'm not going to crush Daily Kos in a single blow, but I am going to show you how to pull around 200 or more hits per day with maybe an hour of work per day. I'm not going to give you everything in one shot either. That's a tactic for giving you a gigantic traffic spike that may actually leave you with less readers at the end than more.

So, This post is just to set the stage of many more to follow. I hope you enjoy the ride!

I Might Have to Vote for Nader...

Because he's the only person running who's not a Democrat.

I am horribly unhappy with what is available from either party. All three choices suck in my opinion. You get a choice between selling out to Kenya (Obama), China (Clinton) or everyone (McCain). It's a lose, lose, lose situation.

In the end I'll probably suck it up, hold my nose and vote for McCain, but I won't be holding him up on my shoulders.

An Open Letter to Peaceful Islamists

Dear Peaceful Islamist,

I an writing you today because the human race needs your help. You are in a unique position to save the lives of thousands upon thousands of people. You see, there are Islamists, unlike yourself, that have chosen the path of violence and death. They do not care who they kill. Every infidel, like myself, is a victory and every Islamist, like you, becomes a martyr in a jihad you do not believe in.

Now you may be asking yourself, "why should I stand up against my own brothers, my Imam even, to protect infidels, the non-believers?" Well, it is because with every "non-believer" your brother kills it makes another bunch of non-believers mad enough to kill an islamist and they can't tell the violent ones from the peaceful ones. The ones that don't turn to violence against you will forever be jaded against you. They will see you in the same light as they see those that have twisted the word of Mohammed to suit their own purpose. They'll see you as no more deserving than them because you had the opportunity to do good but did not act from your cowardice. The longer things continue the worse it will become. The more jaded against you people will become.

So here is where I ask the favor. This will be the hardest thing for you to do. It is you who must stop the killing. It is you who must become active and speak out against the bombings, the terrorism. It is you who must find the courage to speak out against your Imam that threatens the lives of others. And if you can't convince them not to kill it is you who must turn in your own brother.

It is no simple favor that I ask but please hear me through. Would a true borther put you in that situation? Would he force you to choose between his misguided actions or the lives of others? I say to you that his is not your brother. He becomes the serpent who does nothing but evil. He laughs at you for your weakness and flaunts it every moment he plans to strike out. He means to make you impotent. He has already shunned you as his brother.

Some may ask me why I chose to speak to you this way. Why do you even ask people to do something so difficult? I say it because if I can help one person make a decision that helps other than hurts it is worth a thousand letters. If I can convince one person to stop an act of violent jihad then whatever the price it will be worth it. I ask you, dear peaceful Islamist, please, be that person who makes a difference. Be the one that helps your true peaceful brothers.
