CLAYMORE # 1

PAKISTAN: As predicted right here, combat between the Paki military and Al Qaeda is heating up as the summer goes along. It shouldn't be too long before a combined operation can be launched, if it hasn't already begun. In perhaps another four to six weeks, the terrorists can expect a major hammer and anvil attack, and that's not a secret. What they may not realize is the position into which they have placed Musharraf: kill or be killed.

WE JUST CAN'T HAVE THIS: So the NY Times prints (of all things) a story written by two gentlemen previously critical of all things Iraq front saying things are getting better. Amazing. How did this get past the politburo? This simply will not fly. The gyrations from the libs since are disgraceful as usual. This type of thinking does not fit the script the Dems have already written. There is no coming back from the defeatist position they've taken, so if things continue to become more secure, they have nowhere to go. They'll be seen as the party who advocated withdrawing American forces from a battle against Al Qaeda they were winning. The next step in Iraq has to be political progress, and that leadership has to come from the Iraqis themselves. Bush should continue the surge and push hard for the Iraqi legislators to work harder. May I suggest a little global public humilition?

WHY ARE WE TALKING ABOUT THIS?: There has been some discussion starting late last week concerning one Presidential candidates exposure of a certain body part that shall remain nameless. This is gross. Talk radio discussion of this matter has already ruined several of my lunches. Please stop.

EXECUTE PEDOPHILES: Some dirtbag is getting press because he stalks young girls and posts their photos on the web, along with advice on how to remain a legal pedophile and places for others to stalk children. Dan Abrams of MSNBC should be ashamed for broadcasting an interview with the aforementioned creep. Airing that interview was no less than promoting pedophilia. Offenders convicted of sex crimes against children should receive the death penalty for the first offense. Attempting to rehab these villains is a waste of public funds. Our society needs a big dose of reality on this subject. The idea of letting people loose around our children who are so dangerous we have to maintain a list and keep the public informed is absolutely absurd. One of our innocent children is more precious than all the child molestors who have ever lived. I am sick to death of children being sexually assaulted by those previously convicted of such crimes. Under the first time death penalty, that never happens. Protecting our kids has to come before the rights of evil men.
