BRENT's SOAPBOX

Many people question the War in Afghanistan and the War in Iraq. They say that we are the aggressors and that Islam is a peaceful religion. These people need to do a little research. History shows centuries of barbarism and aggression by other people than just the White, Anglo-Saxon Christians. The left-wing liberal media want you to believe that America is the cause of all the world's troubles. I steadfastly disagree. I may not agree with everything this country's so-called 'moral majority' represent, but you don't see very many Pentecostals or Southern Baptists flying jets into skyscrapers or beheading people.

If you want to live in a cave or shack and throw rocks at everyone else, fine. If you want to burn or behead anyone who disagrees with you, dandy. Just go somewhere else and do it. And you knee-jerk peaceniks better hope we win OVER THERE, or we will be fighting the Islamo-Fascist fanatics HERE. Below, I have posted images of 'peaceful religion' demonstrators who marched and rioted in London, England. Do you see this on CNN? CBS? ABC? What can these 'pacifists' be trying to tell us? The Democrats and liberal media want you to be pre-occuppied with Anna Nicole's funeral and Donald Trump's hair and the Oscars (don't get me started on THAT self-indulgent and narcissistic load of crap!) so that you won't know what is really happening.

Here, for your enjoyment, is a taste of what these Muslims are REALLY all about:

  • BRENT participated in The Mobile Arts Council's "Art For Heart" Guerilla Paint-off to help raise money for various arts educational programs in the Mobile, Alabama area. Beautiful day, great turnout. While many of the other participants 'pre-painted' or displayed 'already completed' works, BRENT rendered two paintings for the auction in the time-frame allotted. Free publicity to help a worthy cause......
