How creepy is this...............

An Indonesian photographer Ilham Anas who look so much like Our President have become somewhat of an instant celebrity in his home Country.

A combination photo shows U.S. president Barack Obama (L), taken January 17, 2009 as he speaks during a ceremony in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and Indonesian photographer Ilham Anas, taken January 20, 2009 in Jakarta. Anas, 34, who from some angles bears a resemblance to the new U.S. president, shot to fame in Jakarta after Obama, 47, won the election in November.

Michael Steele is the new RNC Chairman........


The Republican Party chose the first black national chairman in its history Friday.

Steele won in the sixth ballot, with 91 votes out of a possible 168.

He is viewed as the most moderate of the five candidates who stood for the position.

In his brief acceptance speech, the former lieutenant governor of the US state of Maryland said he was determined to revitalise the party.

"We're going to bring this party to every corner, every board room, every neighborhood, every community," he said.

"And we're going to say to friend and foe alike, we want you to be a part of us, we want you to work with us.



After a humiliating defeat last fall in which they lost both the White House and Congress, it was about time in my opinion, they started opening up the party to more minorities.

Steele is a good man, and the RNC made a good choice tonight.

Viginity for sale .........

Natalie Dylan

Oh my God, Have you heard this story of a 22 year old San Diego woman who is selling her virginity to the highest bidder? Natalie Dylan not her real name, said that if the offers become deals she would not go through with the auction of her virginity - provided she earned $1.54 million ($US1m) from the deals.

More than 10,000 men have pledged more than $5 million online to claim Natalie's virginity, with an Australian businessman leading the bidding. The auction is being run on a Nevada brothel website.
Oh My GOD! IS THIS WHAT OUR SOCIETY HAS BEEN REDUCED TO? God help us all.

Assessing the Bush Legacy.........


Yesterday i watched with utter disgust people booing President Bush as he was leaving Washington for Texas during Obama's Inauguration. I mean really even if you did not like the man or his policies, we should respect the fact that he was one of our Presidents and we should send him home with all the respect a President deserves.
Now that George W. Bush has left the White House, and his administration has officially ended, What his legacy will be in the United States and the world at large as he leaves office, is still been debated by so called political pundits .
It is true, he made some colossal mistakes at home and abroad on the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq . It is also true his relations with America's allies, especially in Europe, have been abysmal. But outside of the Middle East and Europe, Bush has been successful, especially in Asia and Africa.



For years, America has given lip service to African disease and poverty. But Bush reversed course, and today millions of Africans receive free medicine for AIDs, TB and Malaria. Half of all African food aid comes from the US. The Millenium Challenge, a very effective program in which rich countries ban together to foster economic development in poor countries, was created by Bush.
When President Clinton had a chance to save thousands of people in Rwanda civil crisis during the 90s, he refused to get involve, calling it an African Problem, and because of America and the world's inaction almost a million people die in the Rwanda Genocide.
Bush on the other hand got involved in Africa like no other president before him, he demanded that Liberian Tyrant Charles Taylor leaves office and send U.S soldiers to help stabilized the country, in the process ending almost 2 decades of civil war that left the country in a state of total ruin.
He called Sudan's military actions in Darfur, Genocide when most African and European countries refused to call it so.
Most Americans especially on the far left have been hard in my opinion of the President, some insulting and calling him the worst president ever, but they fail to understand that the President was commander in chief in extraordinary times and he made decisions under extraordinary circumstances, to keep the homeland safe. for that alone i am thankful for his presidency.
being a Stanch Democrat as i am,i really hated the policies of his administration, but as time went by, i started to understand that in order to fight terrorism and keep the Homeland safe, we had to fight those wars, i started to look at and admire the President in a whole new light.
Whatever his critics in the Liberal media say, President Bush, unlike any other U.S. Presidents, change dramatically the way the United States dealt with radicals who were bent on killing Americans, and the way the U.S did business in poor countries around the world.
The media might be hard on his legacy now, but in time history will be more gentle on his presidency, and we as Americans will look back and see how we not only disrespected a good and caring man who loves his country, but also how unfairly we treated him to the end.
Farewell Mr President not only were a great friend of Africa, but you did all you could to keep America safe.
may God bless you and your family as you end this chapter of your life and begin a new one.

Happy New year folks................


2008 was a difficult year for our Country, millions of Americans face serious financial troubles, a lot of people lost their homes, our country faces the worst recession in years, our gallant men and women of the United States armed forces were fighting wars on two fronts.
But we as a country still have much to be thankful for, we have been in more difficult times then this, and with God's grace this one will pass too.
I found this song by Brooks and Dunn really inspiring, hopefully we can all get back up when we fall, and keep fighting until we succeed.
Here is Brooks And Dunn features Reba in their hit song call Cowgirls don't cry..



Good bye 2008 and welcome 2009

Israel has a right to protect its people........

Hamas militant preparing to fire one of their rockets into Israel

Today all over the Muslim world people are marching and protesting Israel's military action against Hamas. but my question is how come they didn't say anything when radical Hamas broke the six months truce with Israel and starting firing rockets deeper than ever into Israel.

Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert practically beg on Arab TV for Hamas to stop their attacks on Israel, but they would not listen.
I am sorry if any innocent people die in this latest round of fighting, but Gaza is run by a terrorist organisation who are bent on one thing and one thing only killing innocent people.



It is time to teach Hamas a lessson, they have to know that firing rockets and killing innocent people will not be tolerated.
I mean would we sit by and let rockets be fired into the the United States from Mexico? of course not, nations have the rights to to protect their citizens, and that is exactly what Israel is doing.
