No Runny Eggs

The repository of one hard-boiled egg from the south suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and the occassional guest-blogger). The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.

Victims of Communism Memorial dedication

by @ 11:28. Filed under Politics.

If it weren’t for Charlie and Mary Katharine, I wouldn’t have known about this. First, I have to thank Charlie for carrying the speech by President Bush live (no audio yet the White House came through on the audio, but the White House has posted the transcript).

Next, I have to thank MKH for attending, and bringing her cameras. She’ll have the videos up later, but we can enjoy the stills now.

Now, we have to finish stamping out Communism.

Revisions/extensions (6:09 am 6/13/2007) – Added the audio

Why isn’t the media covering this speech?

The ONLY media outlet that is carrying President Bush’s speech at the dedication of the Victims of Communism Monument is WTMJ-AM (it’s not too late to catch the tail end if you hurry and your feed reader just managed to catch this post as I type). No CNN, no MSNBC, no Fox News, no C-SPAN 1/2/3.

It is very powerful, and once somebody posts a copy, I’ll link to it.

Today in history – 6/12/2007

by @ 9:29. Filed under History.

Many thanks to Charlie for finding a link to The “Tear Down This Wall” Speech delivered by President Ronald Reagan at the Brandenburg Gate 20 years ago today. I was still in high school back in 1987, and I didn’t believe that, inside of 3 years, the Berlin Wall would be gone, at least without World War III taking place.

Sorry about not knowing that the Victims of Communism Memorial will be dedicated today. I hadn’t opened up my feed reader yet to find out Mary Katharine Ham will be there with her camera.
