Rehabiltate Terrorists? Not likely but maybe there is a way to safeguard innocents

For those that argue terrorists are simply downtrodden individuals fighting against oppression and for a better way of life or that they have been forced into their actions by outside forces, give your head a shake!

Recently a Gaza suicide bomber serving a 14 year prison term was released from Israelly prison as part of a prisoner exchange. The would-be suicide bomber who failed in her past attempt to kill Israelis by exploding herself in a hospital proudly declared that she would do it all over again (next time she hopes successfully) just to “taste and smell paradise.”.

It's interesting that at one time suicide bombings were largely left to men, However Yasser Arafrat worked hard to change that and bring women into the fold. This would be the same Yasser Arafrat that took home a Nobel Peace prize! Find this hard to believe, well here is a quote from the man himself

“You are my army of roses that will crush Israeli tanks.” – Yasser. Arafat, encouraging Palestinian women to participate in the al-Aqsa. Intifada, 2002.

But lets get back to our lady in question, here is a video of her being interviewed after her release, judge for yourself.

Why do many government sponsored "Green" projects have the stench of something "Brown"?

Since the launch of the Chevy Volt, the plug-in hybrid electric vehicle built by GM (acronym for Government Motors (formerly know as General Motors) I have been watching to see one of these cars cruise down the road, unfortunately I am still waiting. The thought of an "electric car" intrigues me as much as the next guy, however I have a hard time imagining that they will become mainstream anytime in the near future. I say this for two reasons, first their limited range on battery power alone, and second the much higher initial cost .

Unfortunately neither of these issues on the surface are the real concern that any of us should have with this vehicle, the real concern is far more frightening....

The 12 Days Of Obama Christmas...too funny

I know it is a little late, but I just found this gem last night and it is just too good not to pass on....hope you enjoy it as much as I did

It pretty much says it all so why add any comments of my own, I am off now to see if we have any creative Canadians out there who have produced the "12 Days Of Harper Christmas".

Political Correctness , A bottomless Money Pit

If you have been keeping up with national news you have certainly heard about the problems facing our government over concerns regarding living conditions on the Attawapiskat Indian Reserve, or I should say the "Attawapiskat First Nations"(simply in the interest of being politically correct).

Now watching news reports there is no doubt that these Aboriginal People (oops, did it again, I mean "First Nations" people) are living in squalid conditions reminiscent of a third world country or more than likely what existed amongst the aboriginals when Europeans first settled North America. I for one find it sad that in a country as prosperous as Canada that this continues, we need a solution.

After doing little research here is what I come up with, in a nutshell.
