Because of my lengthy absence I thought I would spray my nine (mind) in every direction. I have ammo to spare.
Capitol Hill:
Well a new year has begun, outside of remember to sign everything 2007 now instead of 2006 there doesn't seem to be a lot change on the horizon. The Dems move into Power and the house is anew. Well that is what they say, actually nothing will change with the changing of the guard, because the same old structure is still in place. The lobbyist just have to find new players to put into their pockets.
Personal:
I took a break over the last few weeks, well in part because of a flexed schedule and also do to the fact that I have been reading and learning( actually refreshing). Currently I am reading a book called Breaking the chains of Psychological Slavery by Na'Im Akbar. The book is quite interesting and if you haven't read it you should give a try. Na'im brings about a lot of interesting points linking the attitudes and behaviors of blacks of today with those of the slave era. (or as I often think of it the early slave era, because I know we are still slaves.) Some of the ideas in the book I have long seen and Identified but there were some that had managed to escape me. As I said if you haven't read it pick it up, I think it will bring about some change in everyone who reads it.
World:
In Somalia the Islamist have been run out of power and out of the country. This is a sad time for the people in the world in general. This is just another act of religious ignorance. Many people may not know much about what has happened in Somalia, well as it goes a few months ago the Islamists overthrew the national government and took control of the country. This act lasted a short while before the Ethiopians the Northern neighbors sent in troops to run the Islamists out of the country. The sad thing about this is that the Isalmist when seizing power took over the entire country with virtually little to no bloodshed. They swept in and seized control with out any large scale battles. The other important thing about this incident is the fact that the Islamists when gaining control ran the Warlords out of the country. But now that is all for not, because the as the Christian regime has returned so have the Warlords. Christianity can not afford to loose its foothold in Africa especially to Islam which many say is the original religion of many parts of Africa. My point here is if the people did not fight against this change why was it forced back to the way it was?
Unlike the Iraq situation the people of Somalia did not fight against the change it would appear to the outsider that they had welcomed it. But sadly the death toll for the US troops in Iraq reached 3000. How many more must die in order to save face?
