A few days from now I will go before Congress to report on the state of the union, and lay out my priorities for the coming year and beyond. These priorities reflect a single, overarching commitment: To enhance the security of America and its people.

The terrorist destruction of that day was evil in many ways, but at the heart of its evil was the deliberate deadly assault on innocent human life. The root of the word "innocent" reveals that the notion of innocence is connected to harmlessness. An innocent person is a person who does no harm. And we see immediately that there is a special quality of wickedness in premeditated violence against such people.

That did not stop the British tabloids from reveling in a full-fledged media frenzy in recent days, spewing sensational headlines proclaiming so-called "torture" and "inhumane" treatment of the 158 Taliban and al-Qaeda fighters being held at Camp X-Ray, located within the US Navy Base at Guantanamo Bay, just outside of Cuba. Sadly, European "America-bashing" has reared its ugly head once again, and is now accompanied by similar odious sentiments from some quarters in our own nation.

We're a nation of resolve. We're a nation that can't be cowed by evildoers. I've never had more faith in America than I have right now." -- George W. Bush September 16, 2001 Vist BushCountry.org today! http://www.bushcountry.org ======================================================================== The Philosophic Foundation for Politics By SARTRE At the risk of disturbing the slumber of the lethargic, the case in favor of politics needs to be made. With the distraction that passes for understanding, few have a grasp on the nature of social relations. Politics is normally defined as the activities or affairs of government. But it really is the art of human relations, applied to the organization of society. The basis for government grows out of the perceived need to establish order. Rules are the results of a desire to construct a road map for society to function. The confusion that litters the highways, rests upon a false understanding of how those arteries are constructed and where they are going. The philosophy of politics can supply the answer.

When sex and sex activities, straight or perverted, dominate a culture, that culture is on its way to the sewer, washing all the people involved with it (and sweeping along those who protested) into the vast wastewaters of the planet. Read more at http://gopusa.com/dorothyanneseese/das_0128.shtml ======================================================================== Time to Go By Timothy Rollins In what can only be described as time to go, former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and Secretary of State Colin Powell has shown that he is (a), too much a soldier, (b), not enough a diplomat or statesman, and ©, a liability when it comes to the handling of the 158 detainees that are currently being held at the United States Naval Base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. Their current situation as to their being handled was well described my friend and colleague Robert Yoho in his column last Friday, which I would recommend highly for your reading.

By Douglas Brown When I opened the Lincoln Log set with my five-year old daughter, she immediately grabbed the brightly colored green roof. She demanded that I start building the log fort as depicted on the container from the top down. My first attempt to follow her orders brought a puzzled look. My second attempt brought an angry scowl. My final attempt brought a giggling reproach for being so silly. The tendency to want to do things from the top down is not limited to five-year olds. It is also the preferred method of problem solving in Washington, D.C.
