Apologies Abound

Well, they’re at it again, apologizing. First up today, we have Denmark’s chancellor apologizing for some private run Danish Newspaper’s cartoon running some humorous sketches about Islam. And then we have US President Obama apologizing for just about anything that America may have done wrong over the last forty years.

Come on! Why the apology binge? Is the Chancellor of Denmark somehow responsible for one of the many newspapers in his country? Should Obama be apologizing for anything? Are we arrogant? If so, why should Obama have to apologize? I know he is the voice of America right now, but do we want our voice to be one of apology?

I think it’s time we stop apologizing and start doing something! Make things happen, stop apologizing for things out of our control!

Political correctness has a new face; the apology.

Terror in India

This whole terror thing in India has got me angry. Especially the fact that a young girl and her father were killed. What did that girl ever do to anyone? Another innocent life lost to fundamentalist jerks!

I am impressed with the Indian special forces. They got in fast and have been beating the hell out of the perpetrators. Good for them!

As I think about the last couple of days I find it sad that now India; a place we wanted to visit with the children, is no longer safe. Slowly but surely the options for exotic vacations and safe locations is thinning.

This is a sad week for the free world.
