McCain's buddy speaks the truth, media flips it's cork…

The Story: McCain POW bud: Muslims ‘going to kill us’ | Naked Politics

One of John McCain’s fellow POW’s in Vietnam defended the war in Iraq, saying, “The Muslims have said either we kneel or they’re going to kill us.”

In a phone call with reporters arranged by Republican Party of Florida, Colonel Bud Day added: “I don’t intend to kneel and I don’t advocate to anybody that we kneel, and John doesn’t advocate to anybody that we kneel.”

The man spoke the truth, and that’s a problem?

Muslim leaders have complained that they have been villified as terrorists since the Sept. 11 attacks.

Two Words, tough shit.

Here’s an excellent video, made by Republican Party of Florida:

In case anyone hasn’t noticed, Islam IS a religion of war, and NOT peace, don’t believe me?

Watch this:

I rest my case.

Some good news out of Iraq, for a change…..

Finally, Some good news from Iraq.

Quote:

In the area of security cooperation, the President and the Prime Minister agreed that improving conditions should allow for the agreements now under negotiation to include a general time horizon for meeting aspirational goals — such as the resumption of Iraqi security control in their cities and provinces and the further reduction of U.S. combat forces from Iraq. The President and Prime Minister agreed that the goals would be based on continued improving conditions on the ground and not an arbitrary date for withdrawal. The two leaders welcomed in this regard the return of the final surge brigade to the United States this month, and the ongoing transition from a primary combat role for U.S. forces to an overwatch role, which focuses on training and advising Iraqi forces, and conducting counter-terror operations in support of those forces. – Statement by the Press Secretary on Iraq (Via The White House’s Official Website)

Of course, the Communist Liberals, who are on a crusade of defeat in Iraq, want firm timetables and when we reach them, they can say, “Okay times up!”, so they can have their little Commie Liberal Vietnam moment.

I have to give Jack Moss credit, he is right here:

It’s not a “concession”, but what the President had been saying all
along, that when the Iraqis are ready and want us to go we will go.

I agree with you 100%, Jack. Only reason this discussion of timetables ever started is because of the defeatist commie liberals want us to not complete the job we started and not fix what we broke. They, that being the Anti-American, Troop Hating commie Liberals here in America. Time tables, glad we didn’t do that during World War 2, or we’d be under German or Japanese rule today.

Do you need anymore proof, that Liberals hate America?

Another Conservative jumps for Obama

Larry Hunter has decided that Obama is the answer for America.

Who is Larry Hunter?

Quote:

I’m a lifelong Republican – a supply-side conservative. I worked in the Reagan White House. I was the chief economist at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce for five years. In 1994, I helped write the Republican Contract with America. I served on Bob Dole’s presidential campaign team and was chief economist for Jack Kemp’s Empower America.

This November, I’m voting for Barack Obama.

So, why is Larry supporting Obama?

Quote:

The answer is simple: Unjustified war and unconstitutional abridgment of individual rights vs. ill-conceived tax and economic policies – this is the difference between venial and mortal sins.

Taxes, economic policy and health care reform matter, of course. But how we extract ourselves from the bloody boondoggle in Iraq, how we avoid getting into a war with Iran and how we preserve our individual rights while dealing with real foreign threats – these are of greater importance.

He does not mince words about Juan McSame either:

Quote:

John McCain would continue the Bush administration’s commitment to interventionism and constitutional overreach. Obama promises a humbler engagement with our allies, while promising retaliation against any enemy who dares attack us. That’s what conservatism used to mean – and it’s what George W. Bush promised as a candidate.

So, why is this man throwing his Conservative principles into the wind and voting for Obama?

Quote:

“But here’s the thing: Even if my hopes on domestic policy are dashed and Obama reveals himself as an unreconstructed, dyed-in-the-wool, big-government liberal, I’m still voting for him.

These past eight years, we have spent over a trillion dollars on foreign soil – and lost countless lives – and done what I consider irreparable damage to our Constitution.

If economic damage from well-intentioned but misbegotten Obama economic schemes is the ransom we must pay him to clean up this foreign policy mess, then so be it. It’s not nearly as costly as enduring four more years of what we suffered the last eight years.”

I hate to admit it, but I agree with him. I believe that the Republican Party needs to be punished, harshly, for it’s allowing of a Neo-Conservative, Big Government, Pro-War, Agenda to overtake it. The Republican Party needs to take the next 7 years to rewrite the party’s entire message.

Barry's Plan in the New York Times, just more of the stump speech

It seems that B. Hussein Obama wrote a Op-Ed Piece in the New York Times.

I won’t bother quoting any of it. Why? Because it is basically the same old muddled stump speech that he gave in the damn primary. It’s short of specifics, short on details, and basically is the same old mantra of Hope, Change and get out of Iraq.

If Barry hopes to have any sort of a prayer in hell of getting elected to the office President of the United States, He had better get more specific, as to how exactly he plans on getting us out of Iraq, without that country falling into utter chaos.

His little stump speech is based upon the conditions on the ground in 2006, and NOT 2008. If he has any plan on getting elected, he had better update his damn teleprompter or he might just be getting him a job as the White House shoeshine boy, for John McCain.

Yes, that was me….

Yes, that was me, that you heard on the Downsize D.C. Radio Show. Which is on the Genesis Radio Network.

I was giving Jim my views on what’s happening with the United States and Iran. Which I do not believe we are going to war with.

After all, according to the Washington Times and Times of London, we could very well be pulling our forces out of Iraq.

Personally, like I said on Jim’s show. The people of the United States of America are tired of this war, period. This is why the President’s approval ratings are through the floor, this is why the congress approval rating is very low as well.

Personally, as I said on Jim’s show, I personally believe that we are NOT going to go directly to war with Iran. I believe that we are going to first use negotiations, via third party talks. Then, if that does not work. We will pursue Military via proxy though Israel.

So, again, I very highly doubt that the US would be foolish enough to pursue military action directly, with Iran. Because for one, George W. Bush does not want to drop two wars into the lap of an incoming President, because he wants to be the Republican hero. Not the President who drops a war to the next President.

Remember, we tried to be the hero’s in the middle east and it failed, and the situation in Iraq is just now starting to come around in Iraq. We’re not going to make that mistake twice, at least not with Bush in the White House.

….and that’s my take on it.

A News Article that Goerge W. Bush and Staff need to read..

This is serious Business and Bush had better read this. This here is why we cannot afford to go to war with Iran.

The Story: OPEC warns against military conflict with Iran (via International Herald Tribune)

The head of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries warned Thursday that oil prices would see an “unlimited” increase in the case of a military conflict involving Iran, because the group’s members would be unable to make up the lost production.

“We really cannot replace Iran’s production – it’s not feasible to replace it,” Abdalla Salem El-Badri, the OPEC secretary general, said during an interview.

Iran, the second-largest producing country in OPEC, after Saudi Arabia, produces about 4 million barrels of oil a day out of the daily worldwide production of close to 87 million barrels. The country has been locked in a lengthy dispute with Western countries over its nuclear ambitions.

In recent weeks, the price of oil has risen higher on speculation that Israel could be preparing to attack Iranian nuclear facilities. The saber-rattling intensified this week with missile tests by Iran. That has further shaken oil markets because of concerns that any conflict with Iran could disrupt oil shipments from the Gulf region.

“The prices would go unlimited,” Badri said during the interview, referring to the effect of a military conflict. “I can’t give you a number.”

I highly recommend that everyone, of all political stripes go read this article. This is why we cannot go to war with Iran. Not because of our Military, but rather because it would kill us, even worse than it is now, at the gas pump.

We just cannot afford, I cannot afford, the Nation cannot afford another war with another country.

Iran's Photoshop Psyops

It seems that Iran, Not content with trying to piss off the United States of America, not to mention the members of the United Nations, with the Missile test that it performed yesterday. Now it has been discovered that the Iranians actually photo shopped a picture, that was given to Reuters.

What does this mean? Well, for starters, it means that we cannot trust Iranian people, no further than we could throw one of them. It also means that they’re playing a little Psyops game with the rest of the World. Which really means, Iran is already in war mode, either they are convinced that The United States wants to attack them, or that Israel wants to attack them. Either way, that is a dangerous mentality to have, because Iran could attack Israel, because someone at the switch has heartburn or something. (Sort of a simplistic way of putting it, but I think you all know what I mean here…)

Either way, someone in that part of the country, like Qatar, needs to go to Iran and assure them, that we’re not interested in invading that country.
