“In an interview with the editorial board of the Sioux Falls Argus-Leader today, Hillary Clinton brought up Bobby Kennedy’s June, 1968 assassination as an argument against her dropping out of the Democratic primary.
“My husband did not wrap up the nomination in 1992 until he won the California primary somewhere in the middle of June, right? We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California. I don’t understand it,” she said, dismissing calls to drop out.
She has a point: June is a great month for political assassinations.
Why drop out of the race before all the assassins have had their say?
After all, we know Barack Obama has received multiple death threats — because he is black, of course, and because some of our fellow citizens think he’s a secret Muslim terrorist who is going to take the oath of office on the Koran and make us all pray to Mecca five times a day with that screechy music coming over the loudspeakers and then he’ll fly Air Force One into the White House.
And the truth is, Obama has consistently failed to win over those voters who want to see him murdered.”
Speak it David!!!
The Clintons have a history of crying crocodile tears at the funerals of the political people they snuff out. Would somebody just lock those two up, instead of letting them have one more second on the public airwaves as a legitimate part of the political dialog in our country? Jenny Hatch

“The ruling in one of the largest custody cases in U.S. history, hammered the state for removing the children and directed state District Judge Barbara Walther to vacate the order. Technically, it applied only to the children of 38 mothers named in the appeal, but the ruling was broad enough to cover nearly every child swept up in the April raid.
The children were taken into custody more than six weeks ago after someone called a hot line claiming to be a pregnant, abused teenage wife. The girl has not been found and authorities are investigating whether the calls were a hoax.
Child welfare officials argued that five girls at the ranch had become pregnant at 15 and 16 and that the sect pushed underage girls into marriage and sex with older men and groomed boys to enter into such unions when they grew up.
But the appeals court said the state acted too hastily in sweeping up all the children and taking them away on the broad beliefs of the renegade Mormon sect.
“Even if one views the FLDS belief system as creating a danger of sexual abuse by grooming boys to be perpetrators of sexual abuse and raising girls to be victims of sexual abuse … there is no evidence that this danger is ‘immediate’ or ‘urgent,'” the court said.”
I hope these children are reunited with their parents soon. Jenny Hatch
Ben and I were at the park with his playgroup when this storm hit, we had hail and pouring rain, the sky went dark and all of us ran for the pavillion in the park. The tornado was about twenty miles from our location, so we did not see it or even know that it was close, all we saw was the hail. It is 1:30PM right now and the sun is out with the birds chirping.
BAGHDAD, May 19 (Reuters) – Iraqi and U.S. forces have arrested about 100 suspects thought to be crucial to the operations of militant groups in al Qaeda’s last haven of north Iraq, the commander of U.S. forces in the area said on Monday.
The Iraqi military launched an offensive against al Qaeda in the northern city of Mosul and surrounding Nineveh province on May 10. It has been largely Iraqi-led, with U.S. forces playing a support role.
Gunmen from Sunni Islamist al Qaeda regrouped in Nineveh after being pushed out of other parts of Iraq. The U.S. military says Mosul is its last major urban stronghold, from where its fighters still stage suicide bomb attacks and asassinations.
“They have arrested upward of about 1,250 individuals, of which about 100 are critical targets,” Major-General MarkHertling told Reuters in a telephone interview from Mosul.
“In the last several weeks, we have either captured or killed several AQI (al Qaeda in Iraq) emirs (commanders), some suicide cell leaders, some military cell leaders,” he said, adding that some were from other groups with loose links to alQaeda.
“Some of them are very senior. I’m talking about militaryemirs, battalion level commanders in al Qaeda,” he said.
Mohammed al-Askari, spokesman for Iraq’s Defence Ministry,said Iraqi forces had captured one of the Mosul leaders of al Qaeda on Sunday.
Abdul Khaleq al-Sabawi, head of al Qaeda’s military organisation in Mosul, was arrested near Tikrit, half-way between Mosul and Baghdad, in Salahuddin province and taken back to Mosul, he said.

The Jihadists Admit Defeat in Iraq
“A prolific jihadist sympathizer has posted an ‘explosive’ study on one of the main jihadist websites in which he laments the dire situation that the mujaheddin find themselves in Iraq by citing the steep drop in the number of insurgent operations conducted by the various jihadist groups, most notably Al-Qaeda’s 94 percent decline in operational ability over the last 12 months when only a year and half ago Al-Qaeda accounted for 60 percent of all jihadist activity!
The author, writing under the pseudonym ‘Dir’a limen wehhed’ [‘A Shield for the Monotheist’], posted his ‘Brief Study on the Consequences of the Division [Among] the [Jihadist] Groups on the Cause of Jihad in Iraq’ on May 12 and it is being displayed by the administration of the Al-Ekhlaas website—one of Al-Qaeda’s chief media outlets—among its more prominent recent posts. He’s considered one of Al-Ekhlaas’s “esteemed” writers.
The author tallies up and compares the numbers of operations claimed by each insurgent group under four categories: a year and half ago (November 2006), a year ago (May 2007), six months ago (November 2007) and now (May 2008). He demonstrated that while Al-Qaeda’s Islamic State of Iraq could claim 334 operations in Nov. 06 and 292 in May 07, their violent output dropped to 25 in Nov. 07 and 16 so far in May 08. Keep in mind that these assessments are based on Al-Qaeda’s own numbers.

CODE PINK SUFFERS PR MISFIRE
AS MEDIA MOCKS THEIR
COVEN OF WITCHES
When Move America Forward learned that the media would be covering Code Pink’s day of witches, crones and sirens to protest the Marine Recruiting Center in Berkeley, CA we decided to mobilize our staff and some supporters to stage a counter demonstration.
We figured this was a perfect opportunity to help Code Pink make a fool of themselves, and that is exactly what happened.
We stood there with our American Flags, and brooms (so that Code Pink witches could jump on them and fly away to a country more to their liking… perhaps Iran or Syria or the like). We sang patriotic songs, and most importantly we talked to reporters to give them the other side of the story.
This video covers yet another Code Pink protest at the Marine Corps Recruiting Office in Berkeley, this time dressed up as “witches and crones,” on May 9, 2008. It is part of a larger report on the protest at http://www.zombietime.com/zomblog/?p=20
Note: Invoking a little fun from the Wizard of Oz, one of our signs said “Dorothy would drop her house on Code Pink witches!”

TOP AL QAEDA IN IRAQ LEADER
IS ARRESTED IN MOSUL!

This story is good news for those who support the U.S.-led Coalition in the war on terror, and it’s also tricky for opponents of our troops’ missions (including the news media). >>> READ THE NEWS STORY – HERE
A senior Al Qaeda in Iraq leader has been arrested in Mosul, where Iraqi Security Forces have been cracking down on Al Qaeda forces who have been driven out of almost all other portions of the country. Here’s the best part – he was a general under Saddam Hussein before joining Al Qaeda in Iraq. But the tricky part for the media and anti-war activists is that if we captured a senior Al Qaeda in Iraq operative in Iraq, then that means we are fighting Al Qaeda in Iraq, despite what the media and some anti-war leaders have tried to convince you wasn’t happening. Turns out they’ve been caught lying – yet again! Go Here to read Pete Hesgeths report about the Sons of Iraq at National Review Jenny Hatch
