Our First Blogiversary

By
Today is officially the First Anniversary of the , known in blog jargon as the “Blogiversary.”
While the site has been up for years, and I wrote regular columns, the daily blog was started one year ago, today, thanks to my excellent webmaster. In one year, our traffic has gone from about 50 visitors/readers a day to on average about 5,000. On many days, the traffic has exceeded 10,000 and occasionally neared 20,000. The average visitor stays on our site about 2 minutes per visit.
We’ve had nearly 1.4 million visitors in the year, who are located throughout the world, including Saudi Arabia and many other countries in the Muslim Mid-East. Visitors to this site have clicked on from the White House, the Pentagon, Central Command, the CIA, the State Department, Department of Homeland Security (and its subagency, Immigration and Customs Enforcement), FBI, Paramount Pictures, Universal Studios, PBS a/k/a “Palestinian Broadcasting Company,” and media companies throughout the world, to name just a few. In the first year, we’ve had over 2.5 million page views.


In our first year, we’ve been repeatedly cited and quoted in USA Today ( and ), The New York Times, , , The Daily Telegraph, , , and many other major publications. And we’ve been published in the . And we’ve made on FOX News, CNN, MSNBC, and top-rated radio shows around the country. We’ve been cited and made appearances on nationally syndicated radio shows hosted by Rush Limbaugh (, , and ), Howard Stern, Michael Reagan, Tammy Bruce, and many others.
We’ve risen to the top 1,700 blogs on Technorati, which measures links to 42.2 million blogs throughout the world.
In nearly 1,000 posts to this site since it began, we predicted that a jury would , that another jury would , that the FBI would , and a host of other predictions that came true and were cited by other media outlets. We also had several exclusive breaking news stories, including:

* that one of the Hezbollah hijacker/murderers of Navy Diver Robert Stethem on TWA Flight 847 was freed by Germany in exchange for the freeing of a German Muslim hostage in Iraq ( and ). We broke this story after being contacted by members of the Stethem family, who are friends and readers of this site.
* that Islamic Jihad terrorist and Cleveland Muslim leader Fawaz Abu Damrah would –we were the , which spurred the decision.
* that to serve its agents food at the Hurricane Katrina cleanup efforts in New Orleans.
* that about Islamic terrorists he was covering. Unfortunately, the unscrupulous paper did not even discipline the White Jayson Blair (Shepardson) and, instead, promoted him to the paper’s Washington bureau, from which he can continue his fabrications masquerading and news reporting.

Among other achievements:

* We shined the light (and will continue to do so) on ICE Special Agent in Charge a/k/a Abu Moskowitz and his disturbing kowtowing relationship with extremist Muslims and “former” Islamic terrorists, to the point that he has shut down and/or severely limited investigations into Islamic illegal immigration, smuggling, and money laundering, and .
(Our spotlight on Abu Moskowitz scared him so much that he wasted taxpayer money to have an entire and discourage his agents from talking to me. We predict no such picnic, this summer.)
* Our of Jodie Foster’s “Flight Plan” and Federal Air Marshals to boycott the film.
* Our got the group–the Republican Party’s Jewish outreach program– by Islamo-fascist former Congressman Tom Campbell and far-left, anti-Israel Vanity Fair contributor Christopher Hitchens.
* Our spotlight on various DHS, ICE, CBP (Customs and Border Protection), and FBI leaders’ and officials’ misdeeds have made them squirm, to the applause of many hard-working, patriotic street-level agents who help make this country great and want very badly to make it secure. We continue to expose the incompetence of ICE chieftess a/k/a “The ICE Princess.” We even hear that the terms “The ICE Princess” and “Abu Moskowitz” are in common usage at ICE Headquarters in Washington, a source of great pride (the pride would be greater, however, if both of them were given pink slips).
* Our undercover and out in the open work at Michigan mosques and Islamic events has helped expose the , it’s Government of Iran/Hezbollah agent cleric, , and Federal officials’ slimy pandering behavior to supporters of terror.
* Our have been cited in major media outlets around the world and helped shape attendance (or non-attendance) at the box office.
* We’ve alerted the world of the terror-sympathizing activities of Oprah a/k/a HO-prah, , (Jason Alexander), , and various other worshipped celebs.

And there are so many other achievements, we cannot even remember them all. We look to far more in the future.
Of course, none of this would be possible without your patronage of this site and its advertisers. I thank you–MY WONDERFUL READERS!–for coming back to this site every day, several times a day. Without you, we could not make a difference.
And I thank you–MY ASTUTE, OBSERVANT & PATRIOTIC READERS!–for the many tips you have given me. Without those, many of the items we’ve posted and news we’ve broken would not have been written here. Please keep it up. Your nearly 6,100 comments have contained some very important information, too.
Thank you for a great year on the blogosphore. And with your help, here’s to many, many more.

Well, thank YOU Debbie! I’ve visited your site even before it was a blog site and I am one of those who do in fact check by several times a day.
Now if you TRULY want to thank your readers you could post a small gallery of pics, Ms. #1 Hebrew Hottie.

Congratulations!

Congrats, Debbie. Yours is my first ‘go-to’ blog every day!

Paul on June 2, 2006 at 6:19 pm

You already know how I feel about you. Keep up the good work Debbie. If only we had more good women like you!

Congratulations Debbie. The Blogiversary article has actually motivated me to register to post comments. I’m astounded that the number of readers is only 5,000 to 10,000 per day. I’d have thought it would be much more. But then, I found the site quite by accident several months ago. My location, Austin TX (a speck of blue in a sea of red), makes me so appreciate every conservative, pro-american, pro-Israel site that I can get my eyes on. Especially this one. Keep up the good work Debbie!

Hi Debbie
Congrats Debbie for the best blog on the net.
Not only are your comments & opinions the stuff of legend – you are absolutely gorgeous as well. What a stunning total package- I would sure love to marry you (I am Jewish by the way)!
Just cannot pass the day without a daily dose of the most biting, sarcastic, ‘pull-no-punches’ and polictical non-correctness you can hope to find anywhere – lots & lots of laughs, I love it.
Keep up the good work – and up with Israel & the USA!
Lots of love – from your staunchest supporter in the southern hemisphere (JHB, SA).
Zai gesund.
THANKS, SNAKE! LOVED YOU IN “ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK.”
