Are There Terrorist Sleeper Cells in the U.S.? Neal BoortzClick here for the Social Democratic Party's SECRET PLAN for America after the elections! We hear this morning questions about possible al-Qaeda sleeper cells in the United States … possibly even in Atlanta. Let's try to make this as mild as possible. Only a sequestered leftist college professor or someone whose television is stuck on MTV would doubt for one minute that there are Arab terrorist sleeper cells in America. So, what do we do about it? Answer: There's not much we can do about it until we abandon this idiotic PC ban on ethnic profiling! The last thing the left will allow our police to do is to look amongst Arabs for Arab terrorists. That just ain't right. Charge of 'Prohibited Conduct' Some character dropped trou in front of some of our "professionalized" airport security screeners yesterday. He had had enough – and who can blame him? So, when they told him to loosen his belt he just let the whole works go. He's been charged with "prohibited conduct." Just sit there and think about that one for a moment. "Prohibited conduct." That's a crime now. In the past we saw names of crimes that had some relationship with violating some other person's rights. The crime of assault would be an attempt to violate someone's right to their life. The crime of kidnapping would be an attempt to deprive someone of his or her right to liberty. The crime of theft would be a violation of someone's right to their property. But what in the hell is the crime of "prohibited conduct"? Just WHO prohibited it, and why was it prohibited? Does this mean that the government can just set some arbitrary standards of conduct and charge you when you step over the line? Am I going to be walking down the street one day and hear a cop yell "Hey, you! Bald guy! Knock off that prohibited conduct." Let That Hack Ruby Ridge Bureaucratic Leftover John Magaw Answer This One It's from a listener: This just occurred to me. Some people object to arming the pilots because "they need to concentrate on flying the airplane." I wonder, should pilots be allowed to have fire extinguishers in the cockpit? If the cockpit caught on fire, wouldn't it be better for the pilot to "concentrate on flying the airplane" instead of trying to put out the fire?How about it, John? Typical College Professor A listener e-mailed me about a college professor who doesn't particularly like talk radio – and we can only guess why. The listener writes: I wanted to tell you that my professor thinks that people who listen to talk radio show like the Boortz show or Rush, generally will have an education level of a high school diploma or less; and that the well educated will listen to shows like NPR.Well – I went online to check the Talk Radio Research Project. This is a multi-year intensive effort to track the demographics of the talk radio audience nationwide. The research shows that 34 percent of talk radio listeners have a college degree … and that 14 percent have graduate degrees. Over 70 percent of talk radio listeners have at least some college. So … it would seem that our little bedwetting college professor isn't all that bright. By the way … the only radio format with listeners who earn more or have higher education levels than talk radio is – you guessed it, classical. But … He's an Athlete! Everybody out there who thinks that Alan Iverson is actually going to go to jail raise your hands. Yeah, me too. Soooo Typical of a Leftists Newspaper The two lead editorials in today's Atlanta Constitution, one of the most left-wing papers in America, show just why this paper is steadily losing marketplace share here in Georgia. The first editorial is entitled "Soften Blow of Tax Hikes for Low-Income Families." Just a bit self-explanatory, isn't it. The editorial proposes various programs that would limit property tax increases for lower-income homeowners, and grants – which are nothing but income redistribution – for some apartment dwellers. This just serves one of the premier leftist goals … shifting as much of the cost of government as possible to a small minority of high achievers. The truth is that high-income neighborhoods where homeowners pay many thousands of dollars a year in property taxes are a bargain for cities. These neighborhoods simply use fewer government resources. A sewer running down a street in a low-income neighborhood will have far more homes connected than will a sewer running a similar length through a high-income subdivision. And anyone with a room temperature IQ knows that it takes far more police officers to handle the crime in a poor neighborhood than an affluent one. If the goal of property taxes is to raise a specific amount of money, and if you decide to put caps on what lower-income people have to pay, the obvious result is an increase in liability for upper-income homeowners. Again … income redistribution. The second Atlanta Constitution editorial is entitled "Open Augusta's Door to Women." And didn't we see THIS one coming. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution thinks that this private golf club down yonder in Augusta should admit a woman member. The operative word here is PRIVATE. Augusta National pays its taxes, contributes massively to the Augusta economy and doesn't take government money. Leave them the hell alone. Let the women go out there and form their own private, exclusive golf club and tell the men to stay away! So … This Is How This Works!! Washed-up pop star George Michael makes some anti-American statements. He produces a music video in which he portrays British Prime Minister Tony Blair as Bush's lap dog. He speaks against America's war on terror. He doesn't want America to invade Iraq. Now he's being criticized by Americans – and he says it's all homophobia? Why are so many entertainers such idiots? You can play an instrument or carry a tune and suddenly your words on international affairs are spun from pure gold? And didn't you just love Jack Cafferty this morning saying that George Michael is a "pain in everybody's rear end."? Not everybody, I hope. On Vacation I'll be gone next week ... flying N750DB around the country. No real flight plan as of yet. I may actually get as far west as the Golden Gate Bridge! You might look for me in places like JAC, APA, EGE, LAS, ERV, SAT and NEW. That's the beauty of doing it yourself. Check the weather, choose a heading and take off! Be listening, though. We have some great substitute hosts coming in, including Ted Nugent! And you can check my Web site (http://www.boortz.com/nealznuz.htm) to see some of my "what I'm doing on my summer vacation" pictures. I'll be posting them throughout the week. Neal Boortz is the hugely popular nationally syndicated radio host.
