********************************
Last night A&E TV aired the film about hijacked United Flight 93 that crashed in a field in Pennsylvania. Much ado was made of the timing of the release...too soon, too painful, opens old wounds? All of that is soooo true, but memories are fading for Americans not directly affected by the horrible carnage we on the East Coast experienced that clear, beautiful day in September 2001.
It's time to refresh memories...time to forcefully defend ourselves against the barbarians still at large and lethal. Unite and support our President's sincere efforts to prevent more American deaths at the hands of ruthless Jihadis.
As to the film, all victims' families approved of Paul Greengrass's sensitive portrayal in real time(90min) of the 40 brave souls who stormed the cockpit and gave their lives so that others would live...Live to avenge their sacrifice.......this film is a must see for those that oppose our aggressive offensive against Al Qaeda and radical Islam. Many have come to believe that if we just leave them alone (like wasps) they won't bother us...watch this film and judge for yourself the accuracy of that naive conclusion...It's hard to watch, but film should be an important part of the dialogue...United93 is the first in 5 years...now that the ice is broken, expect to see Hollywood jump into the mix with a blockbuster about 9/ll.
Lights, camera, action...roll it!! Lest we forget.

SNOW JOB
*******************************
Fox News contributor, journalist and radio talk show host, Tony Snow, will replace Scott McClellan as WH Press Secretary next week.
Since Tony Snow is recovering from Colon Cancer he had to delay acceptance of the President's offer until he received a go ahead from his doctors. This job is tiring for a well man..I wonder if Tony will be able to keep up with the tirade of hard questions hurled at the poor guy at the podium...EVERY day?
Tony Snow is familar with all the Press critters and they with him. Already the Lefties have circulated an email containing Snow's negative remarks about the President: "...he's become somewhat of an embarrassment"..and more of Snow's popular rants.
Snow has a special relationship with the President since he was a speech writer for his father. Supposedly he'll be in the loop and will be able to offer advice as to the presentation of Administration events and policy to the Public. Perhaps he might even insist that the Press use some ink on such matters as: Mary McCarthy's leak of classified information about foreign prisons, obviously harmful to National Security and her dismissal for breaking her pledge of secrecy with the CIA? Perhaps he might even discuss whether it's beneficial to National Security if a "shadow CIA" that leaks at the pleasure of the Democratic Party is helpful to our success with the War on Terror? NSA surveillance too. Geeeze, it's outrageous that Dana Priest got a Pulitzer instead of jail time and Mary McCarthy is regarded as a heroic whistleblower by the Left Wing mob?
In short, Tony Snow can turn the tables and ask the most important question in every election since 9/ll..."Can Democrats be trusted with National Security?" OR, is their lust for power more important than prosecuting any Democrat for treason OR protecting this country?

SPRING SPIN
**********************
Que Paso?
Have you heard this tid bit of presumptuous, premateur lameduckery trumpeted by the MSM & Cable's talking heads? President Bush's polls are low as they go and the Democratic Party's tirade of relentless scandal mongering has taken a cumulative toll on every policy initiative sponsored by the Administration this year.
The Dubai Ports Deal...No veto, No deal?
A 6.8 billion dollar deal was approved by the Committee on Foreign Investment transferring the management of six crucial US Ports from Britain to the United Arab Emirates (UAE). When the particulars were noticed by Congress, the Press and the People, the security angle created a fire storm and arguably, xenophobic hyperbole..public fear of Arabs.
President Bush threatened to use his veto power to secure the deal, but opposition grew partisan and hysterical. President Bush was caught off guard by the turmoil: "I want those who are questionng it to step up and explain why, all of a sudden, a Middle Eastern company is held to a different standard than a Great Britain company...the company will not manage port security. The security of our ports will continue to be managed by the Coast Guard and Customs..they ought to listen to what I have to say about this." But THEY didn't and Dubai Ports is looking for an acceptable proxy.
Ugh? The Administration has taken steps to rev-up the public's awarness of the real threats by Islamic terrorists lest we all become dangerously complacent the further we get away from 9/ll...Considering the fate of the Dubai Deal, perhaps the fear mongering has worked too well?
Immigration:.border control & document 12 million illegals
Atlast Immigration Reform is on the table, sorta? With the emotional opponents of illegal Mexican immigration, mostly people and elected officials in the SW part of the USA, forming militias and building Israeli type Walls to block the constant flow of illegals across our Southern Border, it's no surprise that Congress was forced to act. They tried..but the partisan game play, encouraged by hundreds of thousands of Hispanics demonstrating in the streets in an election year was too much for the self-serving incumbents to rise above.
The Sensenbrenner House Bill was all about Border security and eliminating the "mystery count," the 12 million or so that are here enjoying the blessings of a self-acquired AMNESTY. Hillary Clinton, the most likely nominee for President in 08, compared the House Bill to the scriptures: "Even the Good Samaritan" would be a felon."
In the deliberative body, Arlen Spector managed to push a Senate Judiciary Committee Bill to the floor which included a guest worker program. When it hit the Senate floor for debate, the cries of AMNESTY regarding another workers program without enforcing and reforming conditions on the Southern Border *FIRST...resulted in a contentious stalemate. Congress critters went home for Easter...which may be the best thing..stay home until November for all I care? Afterall it appears that no sensible, productive lawmaking is possible in an election year.
I'm very disappointed that Republicans in Congress are abandoning R-President..they'll rue the day that they turned their backs on the CIC in time of War. It's understandable that the deluded opposition Party blames Bush for EVERYTHING, but for R-own incumbents NOT to defend and praise the achievements of their President, the head of R-Party who has increased R-majority in every election cycle since his in 2000, is baaad for the Country, our Military fighting in Iraq, the WOT & the public confidence in the majority Administration and more importantly (to them)..their re-election bids.
