I was watching Wide Angle on PBS last night and just about fell off my chair when I saw that they’ve hired arrogant liberal puke Aaron Brown to host the show. Holy crap!!. Do these people want their show to take a total dive in the ratings or what? I’ll never forget listening to that scumbag pontificate when he was an anchor on CNN. There were many times when I wanted to rip his face off. It’s no wonder Fox News ended up pummeling them in the ratings. That guy was the worst anchor ever.
The show itself was an interesting look at what is going on in Darfur. I don’t really remember having too many problems with it until the end when the show switched to a one on one with Aaron Brown interviewing some guy about the conflict, his name escapes me, and this guys say that the leaders are really pragmatists because all they do is go in and kill all the men. Well, asshole, they are doing a whole helluva’ lot more than that. But what difference does that make? And of course pathetic, loser Brown didn’t blink twice after this assertion was made. Just went on to the next question. Looks like Wide Angle may be providing me alot of fodder for my blog this year. Can’t wait to see Brown go to bat for Obama. Yeah, right. Can’t wait.






Well this is an old blog post, but I found it randomly through Google so here’s a response in defense of Ron Paul’s position.
According to this article from Fox News - http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,85446,00.html
“…the presence of American forces here has long been an irritant for Saudi rulers facing strong anti-American sentiment among a growing and increasingly restive population. Fifteen of the 19 alleged Sept. 11 hijackers were Saudis, and Saudi-born Osama bin Laden cites the U.S. military presence in his homeland as a reason for his hatred of America.”
Even if our troops were there at the invitation of the Saudi government, it well-known that their government does not represent the will of the people. Apparently Bin Laden perceived our presence there as an occupation.
Also, Ron Paul votes against every appropriations bill. However, because his district is paying loads of taxes, just like every other district, it is Ron Paul’s duty to represent his constituents and try to get some of that money back in the form of earmarks. If Ron Paul did not submit the earmarks, that money, which has already been appropriated, would be taken by an earmark for another district or just spent without oversight by the Executive branch.
