Another amazing Conservative woman named Carolyn brought this to my attention. This video and more like it certainly need to be seen here in the West as well as the Middle East. I need to learn more about her but, for the time being, you MUST take a look at this!
US Representative, Charlie Rangel (D-NY) is at it again. Rangel's prescription for fixing the ills we're feeling in Iraq is a draft . I have very mixed feelings about this. Conscription is conscription no matter what you choose to label it. Is that appropriate in a free country? On the flip side of this coin, I've often thought that compulsory national service would be a great idea for American kids right out of high school. It might have been a better start for me than learning to down beer at a Liberal Arts university! Two years in the service might give kids time to think about their future, learn higher levels of responsibility, and begin to take life more seriously. There are many countries who require some level of mandatory military service: Belarus, Chile, China, Croatia, Serbia, Russia, Iran, Lebanon, our neighbor Mexico, and our old buddy Germany, to name a few. Gee, now that I look at that partial list... aren't many of those countries Socialist or at battl...

I love this woman. I watched her tear up this fool the other day. Her Modern Standard Arabic is crystal clear by the way. Even an amateur speaker like me can understand her without translation. The other fellow sounds provincial and uneducated by comparison, frequently lapsing into slurred dialect only a native speaker could understand.
She speaks like a terrorist speaks! In the same slow, precise, MSA cadences that, say, Quadaffi uses when he wants his words to be understood across the Mid East.
Here's to hoping she succeeds!
Damn that is a good video. Who is that woman? She is the type we need on TV every day. When a person of Arab background gets in their faces they can say nothing.
