Milblogger Pam writing at the MilBlog Iraq War Today wrote an excellent article that accounts for, in great detail, a view of America’s problems. She tells the history of how our politically left politicians and activists have eroded the American Spirit and she tells it without rewriting history as the left would like to do. My Two Cents: The Gathering Storm is a must-read article.

Dixie Chicks and Grammy Awards
A Double Induction to the Star Whores Hall of Shame
We haven’t posted an induction to the Star Whores Hall of Shame in a very long time, mainly, because the almost constant murmur of moonbat opinions and nonsense out of the Hollywood crowd and other celebretards would keep me cranking 24/7. Once in a while, however, someone will do something so outrageous that they exceed our usual high threshold of tolerance for their normal crap. In fact, our stupid-crap-o-meter went almost to the top of the scale.
Pursuant to that threshold having been crossed, we hereby induct the following two entities into the Hall:
- The singing group Dixie Chicks for being the least talented group to get talent awards based on their liberal political viewpoint – welcome to the “Treacherous Troubadors” exhibit of the Hall.
- The Grammy Awards for awarding best country performance to a non-country group just because they hate Republicans and country music fans – welcome to the “Sleazy Reasoning” wall in the Hall.
Visit the Hall of Shame.
A Vendela Rose Valentine for our Wounded Warriors
This beautiful Vendela rose is dedicated to our fallen and wounded military worldwide. Without the sacrifices of our men and women in uniform, we may not have anything to celebrate on Valentines Day. Show your support to those recovering from their injuries by supporting Wounded Warriors.
Also, check out the beautiful Cosmic Valentine Rose from Astronomy Picture of the Day.
St. Valentine’s Day
Happy Valentine’s Day! And especially to our deployed troops and to their families at home who miss their sweeties! Have a candy heart!
Remember that you can help the United Service Organization to provide special services to our troops like Operation Phone Home and Operation Music Download. These and the many other services provide the means for the troops to have a nicer Valentine’s Day or a nicer any other day. Please show your support today.
O My God! It’s Full of Stars!
Are we looking into the Obelisk from 2001 – A Space Odyssey? Not exactly — these stars are the reflection of our own star, the Sun, as seen looking into the waters of the Marina Del Rey, California main channel. The scintillating reflections show up like little twinkling stars through the camera’s lens.
Why Isn’t Nagin in Jail?
Contemptible Ray Nagin, along with ex-Police chief of New Orleans Warren Riley, have been found in contempt of court in Louisiana for failing to provide disclosures to the discovery phase of legal action for illegal confiscation of firearms from legitimate gun owners after Hurricane Katrina. In a ruling by Judge Carl Barbier, the city attorney was ordered to compensate the National Rifle Association’s attorneys “for wasted time and money.”
What I want to know is why aren’t Nagin, Riley and their attorney paying fines for contempt? Why aren’t they being prosecuted for their illegal actions?
Birds in the Canals of Venice
(Our website has been intermittent due to a problem with the database server. We apologize and appreciate your patience while our ISP troubleshoots the problem. Cap’n Bob)
We were driving adjacent to the Grand Canal in Venice and spotted these white birds as they climbed up the bank. No, not Venice, Italy but Venice, California. We aren’t sure what species these waterfowl are, but they sure are pretty.
