I’ll go out on a limb and guess that Doogie blames his mess on …… Tommy Franks.

Tommy Franks was right. Doogie is “the dumbest guy on the planet”.

Does Doug Feith look like a moron or is it just me?

I bet you will look real hard at the taxi driver next time in N.Y.C. that yousef is going to make the obituaries, its only a matter of time before he spouts off at the wrong customer/fare. If your going to have coffee with him allen? Some friends and I want to come along make him an offer he cant refuse.

Interesting interview with Feith.
Everything the Bush regime has done or said is widely misunderstood. The administration foresaw everything that has come to pass. Feith predicted we might win the war and lose the peace, but he failed to let the right people know about it, and that is the only mistake he has ever made in government service.
His book would appear to be a 500 page confessional, more aptly entitled “War and Decision: We knew Everything and Still Screwed it Up, and What we Screwed up the Worst was the Fault of the CIA.”
Think I’ll wait for the Cliff notes.
And after hearing Yousef al-Khattab I am convinced it will be the atheists and the gays who go to Heaven.

There some Muslims who wish for Sharia Law here and abroad like Joseph Cohen, al-Khattab, There are Christians and Jewish Orthodox Conservatives who would love the implementation of Biblical Law here in the USA. They all have one thing in common the Law’s of the Old Testament or as some would say the Law’s of Moses. I am thankful, as many should be, that the USA is a Secular Nation. Why? Those who do not want the imposition of other people’s religion forced upon them, they are protected by the lack of State sanctioned religion. They have a freedom of speech, freedom or religion, free expression, and freedom of thought that are Our Liberty. This Liberty is provided and protected by the constitution. Without a secular government those who would wish that government be the arbiter and enforcement agent of Biblical Law’s, Dogma, Ideology, Covenants, or Mandates. This is what Sharia Law is or any Biblical Law. It is the state enforcing Religion upon the citizen. It is the State forcing you to promote one belief system over all others. Some would say that science and math are belief systems and they would be wrong. Science and math are proven methodologies not theologies nor are they ideologies; rather they are the only tools we have to find facts about the world in which we live. Reason and Logic are not religion, they instead are what separate humanity from bacteria or the earthworm. Christianity, The Jewish Faith, Islamic Faith are all separate interpretations of the Old Testament. Christianity and Islam have different idols, Christ v. Mohammed, yet the only things that separate them are the interpretation of both New and Old Testament. The Koran is nothing more than Mohammed’s interpretation of both Testaments and his supposed talks with God. Christianity relies upon Christ’s interpretation of the Old Testament and there is nothing in the New Testament that would stop Christianity from believing that the Old Testament Law be enforced like Sharia Law. For Sharia Law has allotted of the identical punishments and ordinances that are prescribed in Old Testament verses. If you do not believe me read the entire Old Testament and get back to me. There are many verses in the New Testament that order the implementation, observance, adherence, or commandment by Jesus Christ to remember, or follow Moses Law. Jesus refers to Moses directly in verses (Matthew 5:17, John 5:45-47, Luke 24:44, John 6:19-23, and Hebrews 11:23-29). So I have Biblical basis for my fear of Christian, Jewish, or Islamic deformation, negative evolution, and fundamentalist extremism. It is this vigilance and respect for the Wall of Separation of Church and State that I hope preserve my freedom, as well, our freedom of religion, thought, or speech.
