Muslim Militants At Work to Surround Europe with Countries Dominated by their Beliefs and Culture
With countries of the west surrounded or in close proximity to countries dominated by militant Muslim governments or in the midst of a fight for same, the feeling of our safety unraveling resuls in an atmosphere here in which it would be difficult to ban even automatic weapons.
SamHenry is Writing Again
Whenever I can, I will be writing again. I suffer from chronic arthritis and have difficulty sitting long periods or even standing to type. I have missed writing greatly. I hope pain medications will not fog up the brain power! It seems these days that the bad is gaining on the good worldwide. What seems […]

No War Yet; No Loss In International Standing Yet- Strange
September 11, 2013
Enough of the “we have to contain this weapon and curb its use” talk from governments including our own. Just before the Iraq war, one story had it that Hussein moved his arsenal of nerve gas to Syria (imagine). Who is to say that not only we but our enemy operatives now have stockpiled nerve […]

THE INCREDULOUS SHRINKING PRESIDENT

Comments Off on THE INCREDULOUS SHRINKING PRESIDENT
President Obama may be shrinking in the hearts and minds of his people, but he has always been at his most powerful and persuasive when he has seemed the odd man out. He reaches the height of his oratorical abilities. Witness our lesson for yesterday: “We don’t want the world to be paralyzed,” Obama said […]
ANDREW AND FERGIE – THEY ARE GOOD TO GO BUT WILL THEY?
August 25, 2013
Comments Off on ANDREW AND FERGIE – THEY ARE GOOD TO GO BUT WILL THEY?
The proverbial insiders and assorted anonymous sources have declared that Andrew and Fergie will in fact tie the knot sometime soon. But do they even have to? They have lived together just about every year since their divorce and have raised their children together. Perhaps this near yet far bit works best – marriage might […]

Al Jazeera America – Can Money Buy Success?
August 25, 2013
Many people think that TV station al Jazeera America is owned by al Qaeda. In point of fact, it is owned by the Emir of Qatar, Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa al ThaniPast who has that stunning wife who has made an art form of the hajib and who hobnobs with European and American “royalty.” Still […]
AL JAZEERA AMERICA AND DISH NETWORK – FASTEN YOUR SEATBELTS
August 20, 2013
Al Jazeera America will be launched on TV in the US today at 3:00 PM EDT. Many of us have waited for this moment and have written our support of this day. But when I called to have my Dish service upgraded so that I could receive it, I was told by the young man […]
KOREA’S THREAT OF WAR – WHO WOULD GAIN FROM THIS?
March 31, 2013
It seems foreign press is taking Korea’s declaration of war more seriously than the US Fourth Estate: Yet when Kim Jong-un’s government declared early on Saturday that the “time has come to stage a do-or-die final battle”, and declared relations with South Korea to be “at the state of war”, the warnings were not being […]

Lance Armstrong Has Sullied The Integrity of the US Itself

Comments Off on Lance Armstrong Has Sullied The Integrity of the US Itself
We must never forget that Lance Armstrong represented the United States in two major arenas: the Olympics and the Tour de France. But he forgot that. He was out for personal gain and glory. Aside from music, sports is one of the biggest human exercises that unites the globe. Perhaps character building and education in […]
The Second Amendment is Here to Stay; So are Guns
January 16, 2013
There should not be a Congressman living who would allow a presidential order to circumvent the second amendment. For those who fear we will be just like pre-war Germany, remember, they did not have a history of democracy and certainly no second amendment. Most people are against citizens retaining the mutant military machine guns. Few […]

Their Power Eroding, Will White People Now Face Prejudice and Payback?
January 14, 2013
Comments Off on Their Power Eroding, Will White People Now Face Prejudice and Payback?
The US Congress is more mixed in the ethnic and racial background of its members than ever before. In England, the most popular name for a baby is Mohammed. Times are changing and more rapidly than could ever be imagined. We have to ask: As white people decline in numbers and power, will regard for […]
SamHenry and her scooter – life at waist level continues
December 16, 2012
The son of one of my aides poses next to the new patio that will serve as a “turn table” for my scooter. The view is from my back porch. Life at waist-level continues. It looks as if surgery on the hip will not be before late spring. Ugh! But hang in there with me.

SamHenry Discovers Life in a Wheelchair
October 27, 2012
Life in a wheelchair? Only temporary we hope. But a couple of conditions that have developed aside from the need for a new hip have resulted in life at waist level. Not being able to care for oneself is not the end of the world, it just teaches you about a new one. Who pays […]
