You use a lot of words and through it all your liberal anger toward everything decent comes through quite loudly. I don’t always agree with O’Reilly but he’s right in this case.

to Jim.....can you please explain your self a little more.   I just do not see the anger you are describing, however, I feel like Bill O. is very angry and not doing a very good job of hiding it.  Sometimes I do agree with BO but not too often.  On my blog, the ronnie re I do try to understand Bill and why he is so popular.  I must give him credit for his success and try to understand it.  What makes him tick.  Again, to me his underlying theme is his cherished Catholic guilt...but what he fails to understand is that the rest of us, or many people, are just not ruled by guilt.  This rant against Rep Lee is the same as his rant against Al Sharpton.....I hate to say it but there is a part of him that is very racist.  He just cannot give any credit at all to these individuals.  He can't even acknowledge some of their good work....no he has to yell about them being all bad.  In the first place that is unrealistic and the second place why?  Wouldn't he think Barbara Lee or Al Sharpton know something about the issues of the inner city and the people that live there.  That's what I don't get....his hatred...he just can't come to terms with the fact that these may be complex individuals that have done some good work.  Why does he put them in a box?  Why does he have to say those ugly words and denounce them in every way.....and then claim how much he loves Jesus and his righteousness in the next breath.  This is what I want to understand about Bill O'Reilly.  After watching him many times it as if he thinks an African-American individual cannot know anything unless they agree with him.  That is really what he says over and over again.  He is just disrespectful and it shows.  Thanks for your time......cl


On the other side contrast that with "the folks".....he claims he is the only one who is looking out for the folks.  Who are those people.  I guess Rep Lee and Rev Al are not included in his folks....do you see what I mean?  I always ask are his folks the ones paying 500 bucks a pop for the meet and greet portion of his bolder and fresher gig going around the country?

here is my open letter to o'reilly about Snoop Dogg:

if you take time to comment--agree or disagree--it's appreciated:

Agree or Disagree: Robert Gates was Inspirational Last Evening In Wichita

Agree or Disagree:  Robert Gates was Inspirational Last Evening In Wichita.......

Robert Gates in Wichita:  Does the US Rule the World.......

IT SEEMS LIKE THAT IS THE AGE OLD QUESTION AND ONE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PRESIDENT OBAMA AND PRESIDENT BUSH......BRILLIANT SPEAKER ROBERT GATES TOLD US ABOUT HIS FRUSTRATION WITH CONGRESS AND THE ENTIRE PRESIDENTIAL STAFF LAST EVENING AT WICHITA STATE UNIVERSITY.  

AGREE OR DISAGREE WITH GATES ONE CANNOT DISPUTE HIS PASSION AND CARING FOR THE SOLDIERS.  

THE MAN NEXT TO ME, ADMITTED POLITICAL JUNKIE AND FORMER CORE ENGINEER IN IRAQ.  SAID AT THE END OF THE TALK "WE CANNOT CONTROL THE WORLD ANYMORE, WE ARE JUST NOT ABLE TO DO IT, BUT REGARDLESS, EVERYONE WOULD STILL LOVE TO LIVE HERE."  


Many people think that and whatever your take on the situation it was very lucky to hear Robert Gates speak from the position of the second row.  Perhaps being the only liberal in the crowd, nevertheless, it was an inspirational hour.  

Visions of John McCain calling for war and tattered young soldiers, teenagers in some cases, Mr. Gates reminded us, defending our country.  

Thank you, Robert Gates for your service to our country and taking time to tell us your thoughts.....thank you for caring about our country and caring about our brave soldiers.

Good job and well done.

please comment...agree or disagree.....did you feel inspired after listening to Robert Gates......and by the way, a whole lot of people did by the huge, huge and very long line of people buying books and waiting for autographs.

Former Defense Secretary Robert Gates discusses current world crises in Wichita


March 31

BY ROY WENZL

The Wichita Eagle
Robert Gates, the former secretary of defense for two presidents, took the stage Monday in his hometown of Wichita.



It has been three years since he left the world stage, but problems and people he considers dangerous or disappointing still persist, he said.
Gates discussed several recent and current world crises for about an hour with a capacity crowd Monday at Duerksen Fine Arts Center at Wichita State University. A graduate of Wichita East High School, he later signed copies of his book “Duty: Memoirs of a Secretary at War.”
Among those crises he commented on is the current situation in Ukraine, where Russian President Vladimir Putin has moved troops into Crimea.
“President (George W.) Bush once famously said he’d looked into Putin’s eyes and read his soul,” Gates said.
But Gates, who met Putin a number of times, told Bush later that when he looked into Putin’s eyes, he saw “nothing but a cold-blooded killer.”
Putin conned President Obama into backing down on the Syria crisis, he said, a development Gates regards with dismay. And now Putin is playing a long game to build a wall of adversaries against the West, starting with Crimea, Gates said.
He said the U.S. must press economic sanctions against Russia to make it hurt and put troops in places like Poland to set up a trip wire to deter Putin from going farther.
In Syria, which is embroiled in a deadly civil war, had Obama done what he should have done, Gates said, the U.S. would have pushed much harder to overthrow the Syrian government early in that country’s conflict.
“Now we have to look at that in the rearview mirror,” he said.
Obama decided not to attack after Syria slaughtered its own people with chemical weapons. Gates said he had told Obama and other presidents that if you ever cock a pistol, be prepared to fire it; “backing away from a red line was a real mistake.”
And for the sake of getting rid of those chemical weapons, Gates said, the U.S. let Syrian President Bashar Assad off for killing 140,000 Syrians with conventional weapons.
In Iran, Gates said, “the Persians” plan to drag out negotiations – with the help of the Russians and Chinese – while they continue to work on nuclear weapons. Gates said the U.S. should say a six-month deadline is six months and threaten sanctions far tougher than the sanctions that brought Iran to the negotiating table. We’re not doing that, he said.
Most of Gates’ hourlong talk concerned his years as defense secretary, from 2006 to 2011, serving Obama and Bush. And in that talk, as he did in his recently published book, Gates heaped scorn on Congress and bureaucrats at the Pentagon.
Our nation’s leaders squandered great initial victories in Iraq and Afghanistan, he said, and then got a lot of young people killed through disastrous mistakes.
Members of Congress treated anyone trying to solve those problems with rudeness and contempt, Gates said. Senators and congressmen fought for military installations in their states not because it was good for the country but because they were trying to get re-elected.
“Television cameras seem to have the same effect on members of Congress that a full moon has on werewolves,” Gates said, one of several scornful descriptions of Congress that drew applause from the audience.
The best reason Gates said he found for putting up with maddening work like his was that he fought hard to protect the lives of U.S. soldiers.
The people who usually push our country into war – “fire-breathers,” as he called them – are almost always civilians who have no idea what war is like. They nearly always mistakenly think that the war will be short and will be won with advanced technology, he said.
But predictions about war, Gates said, nearly always go wrong with the first shots, the first bombs. And they are usually fought not with technology or plans but “block by block, hilltop by hilltop, house by house.”
He didn’t say it in the speech, but in his book, he said he is entitled, as a former defense secretary, to be buried in Arlington National Cemetery.
He wrote that he can think of no greater honor.

Robert Gates in Wichita: Does the US Rule the World



It seems like that is the age old question and one difference between President Obama and President Bush......Brilliant Speaker Robert Gates told us about his frustration with congress and the entire presidential staff last evening at Wichita state university.  

Agree or disagree with gates one cannot dispute his passion and caring for the soldiers.  

The man next to me, admitted political junkie and former Core engineer in Iraq.  said at the end of the talk "we cannot control the world anymore, we are just not able to do it, but regardless, everyone would still love to live here."  


Many people think that and whatever your take on the situation it was very lucky to hear Robert Gates speak from the position of the second row.  Perhaps being the only liberal in the crowd, nevertheless, it was an inspirational hour.  

Visions of John McCain calling for war and tattered young soldiers, teenagers in some cases, Mr. Gates reminded us, defending our country.  

Thank you, Robert Gates for your service to our country and taking time to tell us your thoughts.....thank you for caring about our country and caring about our brave soldiers.
