Theodore's World

We used to crew rest and enjoy Torejon AB in Madrid... no more. The Conquistadors are like the slaughtered bull... dead! Spain surrendered to islamofascism.

This is tragically so true. We are dying. England, France and Spain are gone for good. What used to be beautiful lands to visit have become desolate wastelands you wouldn't take your dog to go to the bathroom at.
It's one thing to be tolerant of others, but another to be stupid about it. We are being stupid right now.
My family's very future depends on what we do today. Ronnie Reagan told us to beware of the Islamic man and we have literally ignored it. I don't know why other than the liberals who preach one thing and do another, the old "do as I say, not as I do." They are so wishy washy that they will allow such travesties to happen, hoping that they will be the ones the Islamofacists won't kill. I guess when God handed out the brains, the liberals were the ones holding the door open for everyone else and there weren't good brains left for them, so they got Monkey brains instead!
The Islamofacists won't work with us--they'll dictate terms and we'll have to follow them to the letter or we die.
Think about your children, your grandchildren and their children and so on--is this the life you want for them? Is your life so bad that you want to doom your family forever? If you think that way, you're a mighty small, insignificant person.
I want my kids to be able to play outdoors, have the job they want, get married if they want to, have the number of kids they want to or no kids if they want to, have the freedom to own a gun, drive the vehicle they want, do what makes them happy.

I have read this article several times in the past. It is short and to the point. It is very accurate.

What I wonder is, why in America and most of Europe are our elected leaders letting this invasion happen. Do we need convience store operators and taxi drivers that badly?

Once the muslims are here they don't look back. They are not here for conversion to Christianity. They are here to change us. In 50 years America will be a Spanish speaking muslim country.

This article is attributed to have been first published on November 21, 2004. It was true then and even more devastatingly true now.

I guess that this is the "change" that Barack Hussein Obama preaches about for the future of the United States. I agree, "Let's send this to as many people as we can" but to let them know what is happening in this country that affects them and their children.

I see this as amazing. This reporter wrote the scathing truth about moslems and even praised the Jews. He put his life on the line just writing this.

We would do well to heed his advice. But as Les points out, we have our own narrow-minded government and the Party of surrender to deal with. They get in the way of progress and in the way of the defense of our nation. Hopefully, soon we will see the light.

Darth, thanks for sharing about that.
Yes everything that Islam touches is destroyed. Everything!

Lynn your so right, I wish everyone in our country could read this article.

Like you said your family's future depends on people waking up and seeing the truth. Our couintry is at a turning point and the timing could not be worse with someone like Obama running.

Tom, I don't get it either, and some people I have talked to are so strong about how there is nothing wrong with Islam, and even when presented with facts they say the facts are all lies.

They will be sorry one day they did not listen and then it will be too late.

Les, it is so good, excellent and all of it true.

Mark, this article should be on the front page of every paper and read by every radio talk show host. I sent it to Rush and some others when I posted it.

Thank you again so much for sending it to me, I had never seen it before. I agree the writer put his life on the line when he wrote this.

How true this is. The El Paso Times ran an article this past week of the passing of Edwin Rubenstein. I was a friend of his son in high school there, 1976. Hot rod buddies. I never met the man and wish that I had. A career in the Army, WW2 and Korea, then a second career as a teacher. You won't find muslims contributing to their countries or communities like this.

All About Me

Here is how our baby-boom generation solves problems:

1. Recently, George Bush went to Saudi Arabia to ask the ruling House of Saud to pump more oil. That request had about as much chance of success as the Democratic-led congressional effort to "sue" the Saudis in American courts for their selfish "price-gouging."

The current debate about energy in the United States has devolved into doing the same old thing — consume, don't produce and complain — while somehow expecting different results. Congress talks endlessly about the bright future of wind, solar and new fuels, while it stops us from getting through the messy present by utilizing abundant coal, shale and tar sands; nuclear power; and oil still untapped in Alaska and off our coasts.

2. For the past five years, we fretted over a "housing boom" that had priced an entire generation out of the market. In response, government and lending agencies got "creative" by relaxing standards to allow shaky "first-time" buyers into the red-hot market of high-priced homes. Home-improvement TV shows proliferated on how to "flip" houses and buy "no-down-payment" properties.

When the bubble inevitably burst, cries of outrage followed about how "they" (never "we") caused a "depression" in housing. Our leaders shrieked about greedy lenders and incompetent regulators who foreclosed on us — never that the American people themselves caused much of the speculation problem, or that housing prices are finally becoming affordable again for new couples.

3. Over 70 percent of the American people, and a majority of Democratic senators, wanted to remove Saddam Hussein — overwhelming support for the administration's war that rose even higher as a brilliant campaign finished off the Baathists in three weeks.

But when a messy insurgency erupted, suddenly we heard that our victory was ruined by "their stupid occupation."

4. The current Social Security system is unsustainable. But the baby boomers who gave us Botox aren't about to up the retirement age and freeze their own cost-of-living hikes to allow the cash-strapped next generation a little help in paying for our out-of-control benefits.

There is a pattern in all these dilemmas. And it is not conservative-versus-liberal politics, but generational chaos. Those who came of age in the 1960s now hold the reins of power and influence — and we are starting to see why their values have worried almost everyone for nearly a half-century.

History has seen something like them before in the "blame them" years of Demosthenes' Athens, the self-indulgence of Julio-Claudian Rome, the "after me, the deluge" generation of late 18th-century France, the Gilded Age, and the Roaring Twenties.

What are the baby boomers' collective traits? Like all perpetual adolescents who suffer arrested development, we always want things both ways: Don't drill or explore for more energy, but nevertheless demand ever more fuel from other suppliers.

There are never bad and worse choices, but only a Never Never Land of good and even-better alternatives. Housing not only has to stay affordable for buyers, but also must appreciate in value to give instant equity to those who have just become owners.

When things don't go well, we always blame someone else. Why drill off Santa Barbara or Alaska when we can sue those terrible Saudis for not putting more oil platforms in their Persian Gulf?

And why accept that the conduct of all wars is flawed and victory goes usually to those who persevere in making the needed adjustments when we can just keep pointing fingers at the official who disbanded the Iraqi army or sent too few troops after the invasion?

The sense of self-importance is never far away. We "earned" our generous unsustainable Social Security benefits, so why should we have to suffer by cutting them?

Sociologists have correctly diagnosed the perfect storm that created the "me" generation — sudden postwar affluence, sacrificing parents who did not wish us to suffer as they had in the Great Depression and World War II, and the rise of therapeutic education that encouraged self-indulgence.

Perhaps the greatest trademark of the 1960s cohort was self-congratulation. Baby boomers alone claimed to have brought about changes in civil rights, women's liberation and environmental awareness — as if these were not prior concerns of earlier generations.

We apparently created all of our wealth rather than having inherited our roads, schools and bountiful infrastructure from someone else. And in our self-absorption, no one accepted that our notorious appetites created more problems than our supposed "caring" solved.

Our present problems were not really caused by an unpopular president, a spendthrift Congress, the neocon bogeymen, the greedy Saudis, shifty bankers or corporate oilmen in black hats and handlebar moustaches — much less the anonymous "they."

The fault of this age, dear baby boomers, is not in our stars, but in ourselves.

Jim, thank you for sharing about Edwin Rubenstein.

"You won't find muslims contributing to their countries or communities like this".....You are so right, they never do.

Thanks Jim.

Wild Thing thank you for posting this artice- it moved me beyond tears. I can not beleive the things I have been hearing about Europe yet there is little information from our media. Unbeleivable! We already have compounds with muslims in the US- I saw it on a news show- so great they have guns and ammo- they are already poised for a take over - when their sleeper democratic (LOL) nom makes President - we will all be in serious trouble- !!
I never thought the US would turn to a POS but it looks like it may happen. I agree with you OBAMA is looking more like the Anti -Christ- !
If it is true I guess our best life will be on the other side of all the disasters foretold in the Bible. There will be nothing anyone can do but JESUS !
Anyway I read your blog everyday- I really agree with your views you are entertaining also!
Thanks for your hard work trying to save the world!! I will be back in touch!

Excellent article and amazing that it comes not only from Europe but Spain! Very moving and very, very sad.

One little quibble. Sirhan Sirhan is a Christian Arab but is a rabid Palistinian Nationalist. Sometimes there doesn't seem to be much difference in that neck of the woods. The Christians are just about as anti-Semitic and conspiracy theory prone as the Muslims.
