Good!
Congressman Tom Tancredo, the only true conservative in Congress and the only politician on Capitol Hill who takes a hard line against illegal aliens, said that if Islamofascists upgraded to nuclear attacks, we could threaten to bomb Muslim holy sites.
Republicans and Democrats are jumping all over him, mischaracterizing his remarks. They believe Tancredo should apologize. He said he won’t, and I hope he doesn’t. I stand behind him 100 percent, even as Republicans and so-called conservatives demand an apology. We need tough talk and tough action on global terrorism, and what Tancredo said was actually mild compared to what Islamofascists have in mind for us.
Most politicians are faint-hearted, weak, ineffectual, disconnected, and desensitized pencil-pushers, so when one comes along and says what should’ve been said eons ago, his own party wants to see his head on a platter because he dared “offend” someone. Numbskulls.
It’s becoming painfully clear to me that I’m moving farther to the right than so-called conservatives, including bloggers. As they cave to PC pressure and become indistinguishable from liberals, I’ll take up the slack and remain as un-PC as I can get.

Update (2:29 p.m.): For Islamist apologists and soft-on-terrorism types, I’m going to pretend I’m an Islamist and crush all dissent. If you don’t agree with me, your comment may not be posted. I don’t think I’ll make any bombs, though. I’m really busy today.
Update (7/20): Conservative bloggers are jumping all over me the way Republicans have jumped on Tom Tancredo. While the man said that threatening Mecca was a possibility in the event of escalated attacks, conservatives have drunk from the same putrid cup of swill that liberals devour. Any time a politician who just so happens to be a Republican utters the slightest controversial word, the left is all over him. That so-called conservatives fail to see the difference between blowing Mecca off the planet and expressing an opinion about our options should Islamofascists ever, God forbid, launch the nuclear weapons we all know they have, is a bitter disappointment.
Say what you will about me. I couldn’t give a rat’s behind. Criticism from conservative bloggers, particularly on my defense of Tancredo, means as much to me as the daily dung dropped by the most rabid and vacuous liberal bloggers who, ironically, live to read my blog.
I am an independent conservative for a reason. I don’t seek approval from any man, and I don’t attach myself to whatever hare-brained meme Republican bloggers float. Fortunately, the blogosphere is big enough for all of us. As I’ve done since the beginning, I’ll continue to occupy a tiny corner of the blogosphere that’s free of rancid PC jargon and Republican bootlicking.
