Debt Day - 4-25-09

Sunday is "Debt Day": As of Sunday, the federal government has spent all the money it will raise in taxes for the current fiscal year. From now until the end of the fiscal year in the fall, the government will be spending money that it will borrow from the Chinese and others, which will be repaid by our children and grandchildren. With interest. This is the earliest Debt Day in modern history, if not ever. From 2002 until now, it has fallen between July and September.

Miss California USA

Carrie Prejean is a very strong and honest young lady.
She is under attack because the leftist cannot allow any statement they consider to be not 'politically correct' to be heard.
The leftist attack all conservative speakers, because they have no arguments only brute force to impose their dogma.

This is Carrie's exact words:

"We live in a land where you can choose same-sex marriage or opposite. And you know what, I think in my country, in my family, I think that I believe that a marriage should be between a man and a woman. No offense to anybody out there, but that's how I was raised."

The young lady stated her opinion.
She did not insult or attack those who disagree with her.

But the leftist/politically correct thugs, do not want to hear any speech they do not agree with.
It is disgusing that the left preaches tolerance but practices intolerance.

US Navy SEALS

Comment about US Navy SEALS:

"They're impossible men doing an impossible job, and they did the impossible with me. ... They're at the point of the sword every day, doing an impossible job every day."

Reuters and NPR - Can go to Hell.

I was trying to watch the Pentagon briefing on the rescue of Capt. Phillips.

Sickening.

The first two questioners were sick.
Reuters asked for more details, the Admiral can not give them, at this time.
OK fine
The follow up question: What action was taken that led to the deaths of the 3 pirates? The tone of the question implies that the US Navy wrongfully killed those poor pirates.

Reuters is not an American agency, so naturally, they root for the pirates.

But NPR (National Public Radio) is funded by the US Government, my tax dollars pay the salary of Tom Bowman, the NPR reporter.

NPR: There was one pirate on the Bainbridge, what was he saying?
US Navy: Can not disclose that at this time.
NPR: How did the On Scene Commander know Capt Phillips' life was in danger?
US Navy: The pirates were pointing an AK-47 and a couple of handguns at him.
NPR: Was this the first time that had happened? How did this escalate?

Both Reuters and NPR were implying that the US Navy wrongfully shot those terrorists/pirates/criminals.

Why do reporters work so hard to protect terrorists/pirates?
Why do news agencies support the murderers?

Why does NPR, which is funded by the US Government, want to accuse the US Navy of murder?

Happy Easter

According to CNN and Foxnews:

HE HAS BEEN RESCUED.
Captain Phillips, of the Maersk Alabama, is free.

from CNN.com

The official said Capt. Richard Phillips is uninjured and in good condition, and that three of the four pirates were killed. The fourth pirate is in custody. Phillips was taken aboard the USS Bainbridge, a nearby naval warship.

Bainbridge has dealt with the pirates.

The first mission of the US Navy, the very reason, President Jefferson formed the US Navy, was to defeat Moslem Piracy. Commodore Bainbridge commanded that first task force.

American Merchant Sailors vs Pirates

Pirates have been very active this past week, capturing 6 ships, including a US flagged merchant vessel carrying emergency supplies to Dafur Kenya.

UPDATE: The Captain of the Maersk Alabama is still a hostage onboard his ship. The crew has control of the ship and are holding one pirate. The US Navy ships are enroute (but where 300 NM away at the time of the attack).

Correction:

according to the BBC:

"It is reportedly the first time in 200 years that a US-flagged vessel has been seized by pirates.

The Associated Press quoted a defence official as saying: "The crew is back in control of the ship.

"It's reported that one pirate is on board under crew control - the other three were trying to flee."

Reports suggest the other three pirates jumped overboard."

Lesson for pirates,
Don't Mess With Alabama.
