The Story of Curt LeMay's Medal from the Japanese Government.

Jonathon Delacour has an interesting post on his blog about a little known medal that Curtis E. LeMay recieved on December 7th, 1964 from the Government of Japan; The Order of the Rising Sun.

Once Again, Television proves it's got nothing on reality for sheer craziness.

Selective Ignorance and the Iranian Bomb.

The sheer blindness I'm seeing in anything relating to the Iranian nuclear program amongst liberals is just astounding

There's no real reason for people to blindly believe it's a civilian program; not with all the evidence and satellite photographs of superbunkers, and the appointment of IRGC generals to run most of Iran's government; yet liberals continue to deny the conclusions that you HAVE to come to when you put two and two together to get four in relation to the Iranian program.

The only explanation for this blindness is that those people WANT Iran to get the Bomb, no matter how deleterious it is to the foreign policy calculus in the Middle East, as a way of humilating the United States, and by extension ChimpyMcHitler Bush on the foreign policy front.

Talk about cutting your own nose off to spite your enemy; there is no indication at all that a nuclear armed Iran will be any better for the world as a whole.

These people are supposed to be Intelligent and logical thinkers, yet they refuse to put the pieces together, so that's the only solution I can come up with as to WHY they can't or won't put the pieces together.
