Quote of the Day

Wounded and enraged by the atrocities of 9-11, America lashed out, first at Afghanistan and the al-Qaida source of the conspiracy, then at Iraq, which had nothing to do with the attacks. Thus did the Bush administration disunite its nation and forfeit its mandate.

For India to lash out at a Pakistan that was not complicit in the Mumbai crimes against humanity, but harbors elements within that are guilty and are celebrating, would be as great a mistake.

India and Pakistan both have a vital interest in no new war.

But a new war is exactly what the terrorists killed for and died for.

Should it come, they win — and enter history as revolutionary terrorists alongside Princip and the perpetrators of 9-11.


Best Conservative Blog Entry Ever

There are very few Fundamentalist Baptist Christians that I can honestly say that I agree with.

But this man right here, I personally believe is one of the best.

Dr. Laurence Vance posted an excellent short Blog posting over on Lew Rockwell’s Blog. Which captures in essence why I like this man so much.

His Books:

The Rest of his Books.

I honestly believe that if there were more men like this man and David Cloud, the IFB Churches would be in better Shape.

NYT & Democrats Now Spinning on Iraq

It is not every day that I agree with the Neo-Conservative Blogger. But today is an exception.

It seems that some idiotic liberal columnist, by the name of Thomas L. Friedman is now encouraging the Liberal Democrats to steal credit for the Iraq War.

Friedman Writes:

In the last year, though, the U.S. troop surge and the backlash from moderate Iraqi Sunnis against Al Qaeda and Iraqi Shiites against pro-Iranian extremists have brought a new measure of stability to Iraq. There is now, for the first time, a chance — still only a chance — that a reasonably stable democratizing government, though no doubt corrupt in places, can take root in the Iraqi political space.

That is the Iraq that Obama is inheriting. It is an Iraq where we have to begin drawing down our troops — because the occupation has gone on too long and because we have now committed to do so by treaty — but it is also an Iraq that has the potential to eventually tilt the Arab-Muslim world in a different direction.

I’m sure that Obama, whatever he said during the campaign, will play this smart. He has to avoid giving Iraqi leaders the feeling that Bush did — that he’ll wait forever for them to sort out their politics — while also not suggesting that he is leaving tomorrow, so they all start stockpiling weapons.

If he can pull this off, and help that decent Iraq take root, Obama and the Democrats could not only end the Iraq war but salvage something positive from it. Nothing would do more to enhance the Democratic Party’s national security credentials than that.

I am in agreement with Confederate Yankee in this one.  This would be the most underhanded thing that the Far Lefty idiot Liberals could ever do. Since 2003, the Far Left has done nothing more than persecute the Bush Administration over Iraq and done nothing more than bad mouth, Insult, and outright disrespect our Nation’s Military and now they want to take credit for a war, that they did not even even fight in??!?!

You must be fucking kidding me. I’m sorry, but that’s just outright fucking bullshit. I mean, this is the same damned newspaper the printed this:

ntyassholes

…..and they want to take credit for this war? Please.

That would be like the 1960’s hippies take credit for winning Vietnam. 🙄

Can you now see why I left the Democratic Party and will never, ever vote for anyone running in that Party again? That’s because that Party stopped the party of the “people”, like me, Moderates who did not buy into extremism of either stripe and sided with people of the communist, Anti-American far left. They have also abandoned their principles of “Property and Wealth are not entitlements to rule”, in favor of supporting a man, who’s greatest accomplishment was being born black.

Plain and Simple, Democrats or Liberals or as some like to be referred to as Progressives, which is such a fag sounding name; Hate America, Our Principles and our Military. It is a mental disorder of the highest order, and one I intend to fight on this Blog, for as long as I am able to write.

Oh Noes! – Soliders returning from battlefields are Screwing like Rabbits!

Hey, it’s a bit of a crude set up, but it’s true….

Back story Here

I mean, to hear the people at Good Morning America talk, this is a bad thing. I mean, they are liberal and all. But anyhow. Enough of my smart mouth. 😛

I mean, if you were away from your sweetheart for like 12 months at a time, wouldn’t you be Tappin that….Uhm… Stuff? I would! 😀 😉

Let me be clear on something……..

While I might dismiss some of the more idiotic fearmongering that goes on. I do realize that the terrorism is a real thing.

If you wish you can stop by my bookstore’s section on Islam. There are some very interesting books on this Religion of war. (No, I don’t buy the lie that islam is a “religion of peace”)

Let's say thanks to our troops

You might notice the new thingy on the left there, that says “Let’s say thanks to our troops!” Well, what that is about is this here.  Everyday our American Military serves this Country Faithfully. Right now, we have soldiers serving in two wars. Not matter what you feelings about the events leading up to Iraq, or the fact that we’re even there; one thing that cannot be debated, argued or even dismissed, is the fact that our United States Military is the best, the bravest and the strongest. It is also a fact that they are doing the jobs, that the rest of us will not or cannot do…. and for this the fine men and women serving deserve our praise, honor and respect. Not to be ignored, there are also brave men and women fighting a war, against extremists in Afghanistan, in a country that is increasingly hostile to our presence.

Seeing all of this, I believe that some respect is due. So, I ask you, nicely, to click on the widget on the left and send a nice message to our Military serving in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Clear and Present Stupidity….

John McCormack ponders over at the Neo-Con Weakly Substandard:

I haven’t a clue why support for keeping the prison open decreased since July, but I imagine support would be a lot higher if more people read Thomas Joscelyn’s excellent article on the terrorists at Guantanamo, “Clear and Present Danger”, in this week’s issue of THE WEEKLY STANDARD.

Uhmmm….. Could it be that the rest of sane America knows that over 90% of the people being housed in that facility are not actual terrorists?

Could it be, that the rest of sane America has wised up to the Neo-Conservative fear-mongering of the last 8 years?

An Organization that I think all Americans should get behind

I normally do not like to promote organizations on this Blog, other than the one’s in the links section of this Blog.

But this one, is important; As much as I know that going into Iraq was a mistake, because of bad intelligence. I believe that those that are over there now, mopping up the mess that Bush created over in Iraq are very worthy of our Honor, Love, and Support. That also goes for those still fighting the very justified war in Afghanistan.

I ask that all my readers, of all political stripes, whomever you might be, to head on over to the website Below and give as much as you are able. It is because of these fine men and woman, who putting their asses on the line, that we’re to live free here in America.

Iraq Quietly Fires Fraud Monitors

Something tells me that this is going to be a challenge for the next Administration.

The New York Times is reporting:

The government of Prime Minister Nuri Kamal al-Maliki is systematically dismissing Iraqi oversight officials, who were installed to fight corruption in Iraqi ministries by order of the American occupation administration, which had hoped to bring Western standards of accountability to the notoriously opaque and graft-ridden bureaucracy here.

The dismissals, which were confirmed by senior Iraqi and American government officials on Sunday and Monday, have come as estimates of official Iraqi corruption have soared. One Iraqi former chief investigator recently testified before Congress that $13 billion in reconstruction funds from the United States had been lost to fraud, embezzlement, theft and waste by Iraqi government officials.

The moves have not been publicly announced by Mr. Maliki’s government, but word of them has begun to circulate through the layers of Iraqi bureaucracy as Parliament prepares to vote on a long-awaited security agreement.

That pact sets the terms for continued American presence here after the United Nations mandate expires Dec. 31, but also amounts to a framework for a steady reduction in that presence. Such a change will undoubtedly lessen American oversight of Iraqi institutions.

While some Iraqi officials defended the dismissals, saying there had been no political motivation, others pointed to the secrecy involved as supporting their view that those removed had lost their posts without good cause. Each of Iraq’s 30 cabinet-level ministries has one inspector general. These oversight officials are supported by varying budgets and staffing. – Read the Rest

As much as I would like to say that this is the first I have heard of this, it is not. CNN did an investigative piece on the corruption in Iraq a good long while back.

As a Paleo-Conservative, who felt that going into Iraq was not a very smart idea, and as someone who now is aware that the intelligence that United States had as a case to go into Iraq was in fact flawed; I believe that the smartest thing that the United States can do as this point is, leave well enough alone.  Because at this point, intervening in a situation such as this, can could cause more harm that good. It would be viewed by the Iraqi Government and to the people of Iraq, as the United States meddling in the affairs of the Iraqi Government. Let the Iraqi Government handle their own internal affairs.

Because honestly, it would reek of hypocrisy, if we began to meddle in the affairs of their internal Government, after all, we have corruption in our Government and you do not see Great Britain meddling in our affairs, do you? Of course not; So the United States should do likewise.  One of the worst mistakes and utter missteps that this Nation ever made, was when we started becoming the Policeman of the World. This happened in World War I, which led to the actions that caused Japan to bomb Pearl Harbor, which lead to World War 2.  This happened in Korea, and in Vietnam. It happened in the first gulf war and now in the second Iraq War. My question to my readers is this, when will the United States finally wake up and realize that they need to stop trying to not only rule their own country, but others as well. Until that happens, we will continue to have wars, that have no legal merit.

It is truly a sad commentary on the United States, but it is a true one, unless of course, you are some sort of Pro-War Neo-Conservative shill.
