A Day Late and a Dullard Short

Haditha, Military/War, Politics, Terrorism

“We look pretty silly when we lecture Baghdad on being in political stalemate and insist on staying in one ourselves.” - Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-TN).

No matter how hard Democrats try; No matter how many worthless resolutions they pass; No matter how many times they try to pull the rug out from under our soldiers, their seditious efforts are doomed to failure.

Despite beginning the drawdown for at least 5 of 15 Army combat brigades due to recent tactical successes, House Democrats conjured up another funding proposal that puts the screws to our military by making supplemental war funding contingent upon a rapid withdrawal. But once again, the measure fell short of the bulletproof majority needed to stop a Republican filibuster. Senate Republicans are again siding with the President and calling for a “clean bill” with no timetables. As punishment for the President’s obstinance, Democrats won’t bring the measure up again until next year, implementing the slow bleed approach and draining military coffers of their operating budgets until our men have no more bullets to fight with. Defense Secretary Gates has signaled that would mean the layoffs of thousands of civilian DoD employees, frozen contracts and cutbacks.

Liberalism: I Salute You

In the Media, Military/War, Politics

I would like to extend my sincere thanks to The US Senate, MoveOn.org, Columbia University, and the New York Times. Together you have done more to expose the moral bankruptcy of liberalism in the United States and more to advance the cause of conservatism in the previous couple of weeks than at any time in recent history. You deserve a medal.

Hillary Clinton, Carl Levin, and other mouthpieces of the Democrat party would have you believe that the current debate over MoveOn.org’s recent birdcage liner in the New York Times is about whether or not you support the war in Iraq. To the contrary; at its core, this debate is about whether or not you support vicious verbal attacks on our military; our country; our citizenry; our dignity.

Hillary Clinton is chomping at the bit to be -lest we forget- Commander-in-Chief of the US military;

Carl Levin chairs the Senate Armed Services Committee;

Yet both had the craven cowardice along with the usual cast of characters; Harry Reid, Dick Durbin, Ted Kennedy, to vote against a repudiation of the unwarranted attack on a senior soldier of the US Army who has been bestowed awards for his valor. In other words, by voting no on this resolution, they at least tacitly if not overtly support the cut-rate media smearing of a decorated senior soldier. What a bargain, huh? Gives new meaning to the term ‘cheap shot’.

The New York Times continues its sorry descent into gutter journalism with recent disclosures that it violated its own long-standing editorial policy against publishing attack ads by surreptitiously giving MoveOn.org -a partisan political organization- a steep discount. The evil influence of money in politics rears its ugly head once again. The problem with our political system is that it survives on a large infusion of dirty money. Money used primarily for attacking one’s opponent in the media. When someone gets caught red-handed; like Hillary Clinton; they give it back, or to charity. Problem solved. There’s no accountability. Not much more need be said. The Times is a mouthpiece for extreme liberal propaganda that acted improperly to advance a partisan political agenda like it has been doing for decades, and it is on life support. It should be put out of our misery.

Columbia University, that distinguished epicenter of free thought and higher learning has the hypocrisy and chutzpah to host the president of Iran, who in the past 2 weeks has asked for and been denied permission to lay a wreath at the WTC site in New York, and delivered an anti-American, anti-Semitic diatribe safely from Iranian soil prior to his departure to the US, before coming here and doing the same.

My first reaction was utter amazement that Columbia would legitimize a murderous dictator. That in itself is horribly offensive. The University’s rationale for the invitation is the free expression of ideas; free and open debate, which I fully support. I wish I could believe them. The scathing introduction almost moderated my position towards their Invitation to Evil, but in the past, they allowed an immigration debate involving the Minutemen to descend into anarchy and then dissolve before ever even starting. They also engaged in a pathetic attempt to bar military recruiters from campus because of their ban against discriminatory hiring practices.

Untold millions of heroic men and women have and will continue to serve their country; answering the call of duty to defend her against dictators like the one that Columbia University invited to speak; yet they relegate the sacrifice of these heroes whose blood cleanses the streets of those dictatorships to that of just another employee seeking a job on campus, and then try to bar them altogether. Their commitment to free speech leaves something to be desired.

Mahmoud’s Traveling Circus ended as well as could be expected, but it served no purpose other than to confirm that which we already knew. Ahmedinejad stood there smiling smugly the whole time, he didn’t answer any of the questions posed to him with anything other than obfuscation and disdain, and his appearance probably didn’t add much to the debate over his or Iran’s intentions. The only purpose his bellowing served was to stoke the fires of US resentment with those Iranians still listening by showing how he stood up to the arrogance and debauchery of the Great Satan.

So to aforementioned bastions of liberalism and others like you:

My sincerest thanks. I salute you. Just keep Movin’On.

Al Qaeda’s Sunni Disposition

Media Bias, Military/War, Terrorism

“The enemy of my enemy is my friend.”

Democrats continue to choose treachery over patriotism, siding with our enemies while ignoring the realities on the ground in Iraq as well as throughout the rest of the world.

While there is now some Democrat infighting over MoveOn.org’s recent character assassination of 4-Star US Army General David Petraeus (and rightfully so), there is no public Democratic Party disavowal of the attack on this American patriot. As a result, there is increasing outrage among military families and average Americans over these horrendous tactics designed specifically to divide the country. The only 2 conclusions one can draw from Democratic silence over MoveOn.org’s cheap shot courtesy of the New York Times are either political cowardice or outright approval.

Only In The Mind of a Liberal

Environment, Illegal Immigration, Military/War, Political Correctness, Politics, Society/Culture, Terrorism

Only in the mind of a liberal did George Bush, the CIA or any American have anything to do with the September 11th attacks.

Only in the mind of a liberal should society sanction and pay for the execution of an unborn baby, but not the execution of those beyond redemption.

Only in the mind of a liberal is Osama bin Laden a holy warrior, while George Bush the anti-Christ

Democrats Are Very Fonda US Soldiers

Haditha, Military/War, Political Correctness, Politics, Terrorism

Democrats continue to hide their disdain for America’s military. But every now and then, it seeps out into the open. Despite their phony expressions of support, they will never convince this veteran that they are serious about us or the national security of this nation. With very few exceptions, Democrats have collectively become the anti-war party. The party of Jane Fonda, who once strapped on a Vietnamese anti-aircraft weapon and giggled in support of North Vietnam. And their rhetoric is beginning to reflect it. Consider this plethora of recent examples:
