I’ve had a terrible time getting anything posted today. When I’ve been at the computer I’ve been trying to figure out why I can’t get on blogger.com AT ALL. It’s just aggravating me to death. I realize that’s not a life or death crisis or anything, but it is frustrating.
Well, let’s see what other people are writing about ….
Someone sent me a link to this article. Jenny Sokol’s column on Sacrifice is more than an idea. Well worth the read.
Our favorite Dumb Ox has started a new blog, Ox … After Dark, that focuses on love, marriage, sex and all the factors that work together for healthy loving relationships. I hope to contribute at some point when I can access blogspot again! In the meantime, they are doing just fine without me. Check out the articles there.
Andi’s World is continuing her rampage about how worthless military families are. I know, because she included me in the rampage! HEH!!! One has to do with military wives and the other has to do with military moms.
Speaking of worthless, Jon Swift linked to one of my posts about FOB Falcon as an example of how idiotic all of us bloggers are for being concerned about what Beauchamp says about the military. Apparently, we are trying to stifle free speech and are just out to punish Beauchamp to shut him up. Seems to me he got a pretty good forum to express his writing 101 skills. Nobody has written up mine or my sons views of FOB Falcon in a major news outlet. All Swift’s post does is show how little the left understands what the real issues are and the value their propaganda has to our enemies, both domestic and foreign. Arguing with that mindset is like beating your head against the wall. Mindset is the key word - the mind is set and reason won’t penetrate it. Your welcome for the link.
Blue Crab Blvd has Crocodile tears from TNR.
And Rightly So has done some research on the maybe-maybe not candidacy of Fred Thompson and is not favorably impressed.
The Right Truth is also not happy with recent Fred Head developments. She also shares a list of others who are equally disillusioned.
Fausta explains two sides of the propaganda coin.
Girl on the Right shares a little lolterizts, which is always fun!
The Median Sib is wondering why people aren’t as upset about islamists beheading humans as they are about Michael Vick mistreating dogs. Good question!
The Pirate’s Cove is getting to the bottom of some of the strange and unusual behavior of the left. He works hard on this stuff!
The Victory Caucus has relaunched. Check it out.
Conservative Thoughts is continuing to follow the trials of the Pendleton 8. This is a continuance of our national disgrace of hold Marines in prison and putting them on trial for doing their jobs. You know, the disgrace of John Murtha.
Kim Priestap is reporting that liberal groups are going after Fox News advertisers. I guess if they can’t force people to listen to their views with their ‘fairness doctrine’, they’ll try to force it by closing down any alternatives to their views. What’s that someone said about free speech?

On your problems with Blogger, I had problems for a time, and it was caused by Java. Apparently I had not updated Java (ever) and once I did, everything worked find. Just a thought. I’m so technically challenged, I think Butch is the one who suggested Java and he was right.
BSC: Thanks Debbie - I’ll try that. I probably haven’t ever updated Java either. I’m sure it’s probably something simple - but I can’t figure it out.

Thank you very much for the link. I’m sure you meant “worthless” in the nicest way. I completely agree with you about how liberals’ minds are set in stone especially compared with the very open and flexible minds of conservatives. But even though it may be futile, I intend to keep on blaming liberals for everything that goes wrong in Iraq anyway. If enough of us just keep repeating it often enough, the mainstream media just might start believing us whether it is true or not.
BSC: OF COURSE I DID! I hope you wouldn’t think otherwise. I have a lot of trouble with blogger and admit I only read part of the post and comments. I would have left a msg there if I could have. Thank you for the link to my post
