Comment on Judge Susan Bolton cannot understand criminal? by Mike

I agree Pegs. If Obamalamadingdong would start doing what he’s being paid to do, the borders would have been secured by now. But he’s still looking for a way to slip amnesty past American citizens. If he can get amnesty, his next step will be to grant them the vote. And let’s face it, come 2012 he is going to sorely need someone to vote for him. So he’s going to move Heaven and earth for the illegal aliens, in attempt to win their hearts.

The entire debacle is pathetic, really. What good reason would ANY judge have for blocking ANY part of this new law in Arizona. NONE.

This is one state and this one governor attempting to do what no sitting administration has been or is willing to do, even though it’s the law!!! Absurd.

Great tips Mike! First thing I always to is add a new account and delete the admin account. I haven’t bothered to .htaccess protect wp-admin yet but it’s probably something I’ll wind up doing.

My blog has been moved so many times that the file permissions are probably all wonky I really should do a double check and chmod everything properly. Someday when I get a few spare minutes.

Never realized that wp-config can be placed above public_html that’s a good idea

Comment on Scotland has another parcel of rogues by Michael Follon

“…the truth has finally come to light.”

It most definitely has not — and probably never will. In fact I think it is positively dangerous to use the word “truth” in any matter where politics are involved. Whereas “truth” can be open to interpretation actual facts can only be subject to omission. Two Scottish sayings -

An Fhirinn an aghaidh an t-Saoghail! (The Truth against the World!),

Facts are chiels that winna ding (Facts cannot lie).

Here’s some advice -

“Just remember, especially in politics, that people who make statements as fact without knowing what they’re talking about are just opening their mouth and letting their belly rumble.“

It’s likely a result of too many years in the pulpit. When you’re preaching, you cannot leave much wriggle room or parishioners will exploit it.
