Huckabee vows to send 'em all home.

Two Words.

Huckabee vows to send all illegal aliens home (via Washington Times)

Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee yesterday continued to move to the right on immigration during this year’s presidential campaign, signing a pledge to enforce immigration laws and to make all illegal aliens go home.

The pledge, offered by immigration control advocacy group Numbers USA, commits Mr. Huckabee to oppose a new path to citizenship for current illegal aliens and to cut the number of illegal aliens already in the country through attrition by law enforcement — something Mr. Huckabee said he will achieve through his nine-point immigration plan.

Yeah Right. I don’t buy it. Neither does Michelle Malkin.

Get out and Vote!

ivoted

My question is, Did you?

I’ve always said, anyone who doesn’t get out and vote, has no right to complain about the way things are ran in Washington D.C.

It is a part of our Democratic process and it is one of the privileges as United States Citizens.

No matter which side you are voting for, that doesn’t matter, what matters is, that YOU ARE DOING IT!

What are you still sitting there for!?!?!?!?!  GET OUT AND VOTE!

This has just gone beyond stupid.

I’m referring to this.

Yes, there’s primary here. and No, I am NOT voting for Her!

She can go to hell. I’m voting uncommitted or "other".

If she gets the nomination, I will hold my nose and vote Republican.

I’m all for Progressive Thought and for "Change" as they call it. But I am not for causing division of the Black Race, which is what Hillary is doing and yes, I think it’s crap.  Angry

I hope like hell she loses and ends up being HIS Vice-President!

Like I said in the title, this whole damn thing as gone well beyond the realm of stupid.

Score one for Dubya…..

I knew this was coming.

Sorry, Barack, You’ve lost Iraq. By Michael Hirsh (via Newsweek)

Camp Arifjan in the desert kingdom of Kuwait, America’s depot to the Iraq war, feels about as far away as you can get from South Carolina, Super Tuesday and the election-year squabbles back home. And George W. Bush, who is currently midway through his six-nation tour of the Mideast, is doing a good job of distancing himself from the politics of 2008. But as Bush rallied U.S. troops at the base here on Saturday with a "Hoo-ah" and conferred with his Iraq dream team, Gen. David Petraeus and Ambassador Ryan Crocker, he indicated that he was setting in motion policies that could dramatically affect the presidential race–and any decisions the next president makes in 2009.

Yep, we were warned that he was going to do this and he did.

More:

Most significant of all, the new partnership deal with Iraq, including a status of forces agreement that would then replace the existing Security Council mandate authorizing the presence of the U.S.-led multinational forces in Iraq, will become a sworn obligation for the next president. It will become just another piece of the complex global security framework involving a hundred or so countries with which Washington now has bilateral defense or security cooperation agreements. Last month, Sen. Hillary Clinton urged Bush not to commit to any such agreement without congressional approval. The president said nothing about that on Saturday, but Lute said last fall that the Iraqi agreement would not likely rise to the level of a formal treaty requiring Senate ratification. Even so, it would be difficult if not impossible for future presidents to unilaterally breach such a pact.

You didn’t think that ol’ Dubya was going to leave office and let them mean ol’ Democrat Liberals ruin his war game did you? Rolling Eyes

and the most telling of all:

The upshot is that the next president, Democrat or Republican, is likely to be handed a fait accompli that could well render moot his or her own elaborate withdrawal plans, especially the ones being considered by the two leading Democratic contenders, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. Obama, undeterred by the reported success of Bush’s surge, is pushing ahead with his plans for a brigade-a-month withdrawals that would remove the U.S. military presence entirely. If current Defense Secretary Robert Gates can draw down to, say, 12 brigades by 2009, a senior Obama adviser told me Friday, "then we can get the rest out in eight to 10 months."

But Bush may have the upper hand now. The president touted the surge’s success on Saturday, and he reiterated that "long-term success will require active U.S. engagement that outlasts my presidency." The "enduring relationship" he is building with Iraq, Bush added, "will have diplomatic, economic and security components–similar to relationships we have with Kuwait and other nations in this region and around the world." Some of those relationships have now lasted decades. And as in Japan, Germany, Korea and Kuwait, they include a substantial troop presence. Far away in the Persian Gulf, Bush is creating facts on the ground that the next president may not be able to ignore.

Score one for Dubya, Checkmate.

Have Conservatives just given up?

January 12, 2008

Have Conservatives just given up?

 

Nobody likes to lose; it is a common trait among human beings. We all love being winners. We all like winning the prize; some are just down right obsessive about it. If you do not believe me, you can stop by your nearest ball field or sports arena, you’ll see enough testosterone and obsession with winning to last you a lifetime.

However, I happened to have been reading articles by Rudy Takala and Dr. W.R. Marshall, Ph.D and by reading these articles, I get the impression that they must believe that the Democrats have already won the White House and both houses of Congress, and the G.O.P. had been dissolved. Last time I checked, we were only in the Primaries. The General election had not been started yet.

Yes, Barack Obama does seem to be the candidate on the left that has been made the darling of the liberal media. However, Obama has not answered questions, as to how he is going to make this so called “change” that he speaks of. He only has spoken in generalities, not in specifics. I believe that if the Conservative candidates for President want to beat the Democrats in the election in 2008, they need to stop bickering amongst themselves over minor policy differences, rally behind one of these candidates, and take Obama to task on his policy intentions.

As a right of center voter, I do truly believe change is needed, in the White House, (Unlike Mitt Romney!) and in Washington DC as a whole. However, I do not believe that this change should involved raising my taxes to make this change possible! While I do believe that, we do need jobs in this country, and more specifically in this state here, (I live in Michigan) I do not believe that we need to steal money out of the hands of successful business men, who have worked hard all their lives to make their fortunes to make this happen.

I mean, I, technically, would be considered in the poor class economically, but the last thing that I would want to do is demand that someone who has worked hard for his money, surrender it to me. I am sorry, that, my friend is not the American way that is called highway robbery and outright socialism. I might not be as well off as some, but I do not expect those who are well off to give me their money. I believe that if you want to be rich, you ought to work for it and earn it, like everyone else. I mean, sure, I would love to be a rich syndicated writer, like Ann Coulter, but do I expect Ann Coulter to give me her wealth so that I can be? No! She has earned her wealth, by writing and by being a lawyer. She went to school to be a lawyer. Her good looks did not hurt either, but that is not the issue here. (tee hee)

The issue is that Republicans candidates need to stop the stupidity, and debate the issues at hand. The Republican candidates weed out the cranks, like Ron Paul and get down to the business of serious politics, why Ron Paul has been allowed to continue this far, is very much beyond me. The fact that Fred Thompson, Rudy Giuliani are even still running, shows that there is just too much dissent in the Republican Party. I say let us pick 3 out of the top runners and let the rest to go home.

We do need change, but we do not need the change that the Liberal Democrats want to bring to America, by negotiating with terrorists, raising taxes, and giving hand outs to everything from former slaves to Iraqi suicide bombers.

If Conservatives are going to win, this is what needs to happen.

Ms. Magazine Hates Israel

But they’ll publish ads that promote liberalism. Rolling Eyes

Ms. Magazine refuses to publish ad about Israel’s most powerful women (Via Yourish.com)

The magazine co-founded by Gloria Steinem doesn’t seem to like Jews when they’re Israeli Jews. Or at least, that’s the impression they’re giving after rejecting an ad for Israel that the AJC wanted to place.

This should not be a surprise, seeing Gloria Steinem founded the magazine. 

The Ad in question:

and they wonder why I won’t align myself with those God hating thugs.
