Taking Candy From Strangers
In South Carolina, we have strangers giving candy to children. The Ku Klux Klan wants to bolster it's image and increase membership by tossing bags of candy on people's doorsteps. Bags of candy against one hundred and fifty years or so of violence and terrorism....right. Somehow, this seems ridicules. There is also printed material included in the bags of candy, for anyone interested in joining, should such a person read above a third grade level, explaining that the Klan wants to curb immigration, black crime, and "minority tyranny". Perhaps the Klan should be aware that minorities would like to curb unlawful immigration and white (collar) crime, and "establishment" tyranny! Minorities and everyone else would also like the Klan, and other terrorists, to know that most of us still teach our children not to accept any candy from strangers.

Cry Me A River, Afghanistan
Obama just can't catch a break! Not only are American Republicans angry at him because he got a Taliban hostage, Bowe Bergdahl, back into the United States, the Afghan president has his panties in a bunch, as well, over all this. Hamid Karzai was very upset that the Taliban went behind his back and released an hostage to the United States with asking him first!
Ya know, malcontent, anti-government, terrorist organizations have a tendency to act without the consent of their government, or any government. It's one of the things that makes these groups so very terrorist. That said, it was rather unrealistic for the president of a country dominated by such an organization to expect the Taliban to ask permission and patiently wait, while the chain of lawful command makes a decision. Here's an idea: perhaps Afghanistan should work harder to eliminate uncooperative bunches like the Taliban. (eye-rolley here)
In other news, Bergdahl seems to be picking up flack for desertion. It seems unlikely that he deserted in favor of becoming the prisoner of a terrorist organization; but bringing him home, rather than leaving him in the hands of the enemy, was still the right thing for Obama to do. If Bergdahl actually became a prisoner by being in the wrong place at the wrong time, and being unaccounted for, at the same time, we can certainly address that situation. Leaving an American soldier with the Taliban when there are obviously other choices should not be an option.
