I have a different take on life I admit it. Every day I try my best to use common sense. I realize how fortunate we are to live in a country that is free. That freedom is afforded to us by the backs of the military and their families. Let’s get realistic, it is the brave men and women that defend my right to be politically un-correct. All I did was to be born in the Great State of Texas in America, in that order. To the military, I am eternally grateful. Mere words cannot express how much I am thankful every day. The only other thing I can do is to come out on an issue that no one is coming out and say the truth. Just as the VIP Countrywide Mortgages was not exposed, I believe FISA keeps our country safe. It is widely known that terrorists use cell phones for bombs and communication. Without FISA, we as a Nation hindered. Just put yourself in the military shoes, your kid is missing but because of some lame law to protect people who are not citizens you can not listen in to child predator find your child. That to me is insane. FISA in a weird way is our “sneak weapon” that is widely known. Just as criminals don’t give up guns when there is a gun ban, the terrorist have no code of honor to keep them from listening to our communication. They know where we are, isn’t it common sense we should use what is the best weapon to find them? If your son or daughter were being held hostage you would want to use any method to get the information to release them free from harm. That is where FISA reform bill comes in.
For the record as Greta would say I am for water boarding, only because it is done to non-citizens and it is highly effective. Any method that would help I am for but FISA isn’t even torture, FISA is what used to happen with CB radios years ago. FISA is listening when the military deem it necessary. FISA Reform is also bi-partisan, as badly as it hurts me even Chet Edwards is backing FISA. That’s how bipartisan it is, Chet and I agree on nothing except a few military issues. When I heard that the Democrat challenging John Cornyn by the name of Noriega (yeah I know I read it twice too) is against the FISA Reform I was stunned. How can you expect to win Texas when you are against protecting our service men and women? Thankfully, John Cornyn has urged the Senate to vote for the FISA reform Bill. I was thrilled to know John has not given up on the Military, and FISA will protect those in harm’s way.
If this hasn’t convinced you then read this New York Post. If you are not a resident of the Great State of Texas, I am truly sorry but urge your congressional representative and Senator today to be for the military intelligence we need. The last thing we need is ten hours figuring out what is legal for America to rescue the military!
Stumble It!

11 spoke out:
I love how when you speak of Texas you always put "The Great State of Texas".
Monique,
You know there is no Other Way to Say Texas!
Here's what they say about Pennsylvania: it's Philadelphia at one end, Pittsburgh at the other, with Alabama in between.
So much of this stuff just seems like common sense, it's hard to understand why Congress is, as Juan McCain put it today, "gridlocked."
Good, logical post.
Texas is good. Ever visited California? Now, my friend, that is good. :)
Heb,
You know I have no idea why this is an issue. I do suspect some are backed by the trial lawyers. Trial lawyers tend to protect the people that should be caught.
Shirley,
Been to California, came running back to the Great State of Texas. I have heard other parts are good but LA is not my kind of place! But a lot of good people live there!:D
Thank you for your patience. As you may or may not, have notices, on my last post....I was in China for the last two weeks. I just now returned. Your site will be on the "Big Bang" master list within 2-3 hours of my leaving this comment.
You have been added to the "Big Bang" master list, officially, at #1015. Don't forget to come by and copy/paste the complete list back to your sites. Doing this frequently assures maximum link benefit for everyone who joins. And by keeping your list current with mine you won't have to respond to individual participant requests to add them to your list.

Thanks for playing. If possible, try to get others to play also. It will benefit everyone.
In addition I would like to introduce you to 2 new sites that I have recently launched. They are both “link-love” based, but emphasize quality over quantity.
I believe that everyone has something to be grateful for and/or something to complain about. If you would like to participate in what could eventually be bigger than the Big Bang, please visit one or both of the following sites and follow the simple rules:

Again, THANK YOU for your patience and understanding.
Morning,
Thanks I took it down till I could get a hold of you. I have kept checking. I will repost it ASAP, thanks for including me!
Well said!!!
Thanks Flo!
"If your son or daughter were being held hostage you would want to use any method to get the information to release them free from harm."-- absolutely!!!!
I agree with you Kathy. The United States MUST protect "its" citizens first. If we are not safe and free, then "no one" in the rest of the world will "ever" be safe and free. As "United Statesmen" we must protect our own homeland, our freedom and our own pursuit of happiness first. The idea that if we give up our rights and our so called "luxuries" and go live in "mud huts" so the rest of the world will "like" us is ludicrous. The US, our free markets, capitalism and democracy give us "the people" great power to achieve "anything" we want as long as we "WORK" hard for it. Nations that promote no competition, limit freedoms and restrict "success" starve their people, their bellies and their minds.
Give me more FISA and more of whatever we need to "remain free and safe." Law abiding, decent individuals must demand that "evil" individuals be exposed and eliminated.
Excellent post!
Thanks Fearless! The good news is the FISA reform bill passed in the Senate!
