Bastille Day

In tribute to Bastille day I have chosen an entire country that needs to "Grow a Pair." If we all think real hard, we will know that that country is France. Happy Bastille Day and enjoy IMAO's take on the French.

Also, thank you Vilmar at Ranting Right Wing Howler for the link to IMAO.

To the Brits

This is a collection from some of Brits that reacted to the cowardly bombings in London. You "grew a pair" a long time ago. These idiots have nothing on you people and your history. You will endure this and triumph in the end. I especially like this one:

To quote an old Londoner who lived through the blitz and got caught up in the Canary Wharf explosion: "I've been blown up by a better class of bastard than this!"

In the Name of Islam

Tell me the terrorists are doing this in the name of Islam.

Tell her Uncle.

Shahara IslamA devout Muslim, 20-year-old Shahara Islam had a dental appointment before going to work at the Co-operative Bank, and called her uncle at 9.45am that morning. She died in the explosion on the No 30 bus.

Picture from The Guardian.

The Justice Department and Homeland Security

These organizations need to "Grow a Pair" and grow a pair quickly! In light of the recent reports by Joseph Farah at World News Daily (WND), the evil terrorists have already smuggled in nukes through the Mexican border and are poised to let them loose.

The Justice Department and Homeland Security need to get on this right away and find out if it's true or not. Even the thought of them being able to do something like this just rattles me. If the WND can find information on this, why can't these organizations?

Also, hats off to Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colorado who is showing that he has a pair. He is a staunch critic of the government's lax immigration and border enforcement policies and he's calling the Justice Department on the carpet, demanding they show evidence (if any) of nukes on our soil.

The BBC

Unfortunately, I must chose the BBC for the next group that needs to "Grow a Pair." I give them this advice because of their recent decision to remove "Terrorist" from their reporting and replace it with "Bomber."

Hello? Anybody home?

A "Terrorist" is someone who creates "TERROR" through a cowardly act, like "bombing." A "Bomber" is someone who creates what?.....TERROR by bombing. (It's also a drink I used to enjoy involving whiskey and beer, but that was the old days).

The BBC took the word out because their guidelines state that their, credibility is undermined by the "careless use of words which carry emotional or value judgments."
Consequently, "the word terrorist' itself can be a barrier rather than an aid to understanding" and its use should be "avoided,"the guidelines say.

An 'aid to understanding?' What do you need to understand? You were BOMBED by TERRORISTS!

In my opinion, doing something like this damages the BBC's credibility much more than not "understanding" terrorists.

Man, I am just totally bewildered by these "Font Fondlers" who call themselves journalists.

For this little act of political correctness, you folks at the BBC need to "Grow a Pair."
