Editorial: I just lost all respect for Hillary Clinton

Undoubtedly, you already know what it is that I am referring. The statement by Hillary Clinton that she would obliterate Iran, that country attempted an attack on Israel with nuclear weapons.

Here is the snippet of the interview, that is coming up on Good Morning America.:

She did, however attempt to back off the statement on MSNBC:

 

My friends, this is nothing more than a page out the George W. Bush playbook.  Was it not Hillary Clinton, when confronted by some facts about her policies, fly into a screeching premenstrual rage, about Barack Obama’s tactics being right out of the playbook of Karl Rove?  Now, with the table’s turned and Hillary being under the gun, Hillary herself does the same exact thing, only notches up the rhetoric more.  Yet, she gets a free pass, because she is trailing, because she is the underdog.  Not from this writer she does not.

This Nation, for the last 6 years, has been in quagmire called Iraq.  We were lead into this war, based upon intelligence that, in fact, was found to be false.  Yet, this administration has continued to move the goal posts as to the reason we had to remain in Iraq.  Yet our President in his stubbornness and blind allegiance to a totally flawed and poisonous political ideology has almost strained our Military to the point of almost breaking the back of those of whom we entrust our safety, our lives, our well being.

Now we have some so-called underdog Presidential candidate who is attempting to compare herself to Franklin D. Roosevelt, or John F. Kennedy, both paramount leaders in the annals of the history of America, all so she can attempt to appeal to those who think striking Iran might just be a good idea.

The tough reality is, that involving this country in another military escalation of this sort would do nothing more than further strain and possibly destroy what military we have left.  This is outside of the scope of instituting a military draft.  Not to mention, any sort of Military action, outside of the approval of the United Nations would result in further destabilization of that very region.  Not to mention the United States relations with our allies in the region.

I am not sure exactly what Hillary Clinton is attempting to do, but it could spell the very end of her bid for the office of President of United States.

A Video, that everyone needs to watch…

I think everyone needs to watch this:

It’s pretty scary, but all true.

To Gaffe or not to Gaffe…..

The other large headline in the world of Politics is McCain’s supposed Gaffe about the war on terror. This was posted on the Washington Post’s Blog, or one of them at least. Although, right at the moment, I cannot seem to bring up the Blog, looks like the Washington Post needs to get better hosting for their Blog or better servers.

Of course, the Neo-Conservative apologists are coming out in full force defending John McCain and saying he was right in the first place, armed with talking points galore, they look more like Amway salesman, than they do political pundits.

Whether or not the statement was a gaffe or not, is quite frankly irrelevant in my mind. It overlooks the broader issue, that this so called “war” in Iraq was, in fact, a tragic mistake, that was based upon bad intelligence, some say cooked, I won’t go that far, as I do not know personally, as I was not there. But the fact remains is, President George W. Bush foolishly bought the false intelligence and the Neo-Conservative lie, that we could and would dominate the world through Military might, and now we are living in the great chasm that is the Iraq disaster.

Anyone that sees the war and how we go pulled into this landmine filled field of foolishness, any other way, is, in fact, defending the Neo-Conservative flawed worldview. Heck, even the late William Buckley denounced what Bush was doing as wrong. What more do we need, to believe what has happened in Iraq was wrong?

What amazes me is the ignorance of the people that defend McCain and his continuation of the flawed polices of George W. Bush. They know no bounds, and that worries me, greatly.

For the most part, I agree. If the Bush Administration has done nothing wrong, then why threaten to veto? Confused

Sorry, I don’t buy the frivolous lawsuit B.S. Line. 

ABC News reports and Moonbats abound.

Strange.

Voices on Recording May Not Have Been From Iranian Speedboats (Via ABC NEWS.COM

Just two days after the U.S. Navy released the eerie video of Iranian speedboats swarming around American warships, which featured a chilling threat in English, the Navy is saying that the voice on the tape could have come from the shore or from another ship

The near-clash occurred over the weekend in the Strait of Hormuz. On the U.S.-released recording, a voice can be heard saying to the Americans, "I am coming to you. You will explode after a few minutes."

The Navy never said specifically where the voices came from, but many were left with the impression they had come from the speedboats because of the way the Navy footage was edited.

Today, the spokesperson for the U.S. admiral in charge of the Fifth Fleet clarified to ABC News that the threat may have come from the Iranian boats, or it may have come from somewhere else.

We’re saying that we cannot make a direct connection to the boats there," said the spokesperson. "It could have come from the shore, from another ship passing by. However, it happened in the middle of all the very unusual activity, so as we assess the information and situation, we still put it in the total aggregate of what happened Sunday morning. I guess we’re not saying that it absolutely came from the boats, but we’re not saying it absolutely didn’t."

I must confess, I had my doubts about the voice recording myself. But I was nowhere near this Moonbat here:

If a bully stands outside your house with rocks and a baseball bat and you’ve seen them break your next door neighbours windows with rocks and the previous owner of the house had their windows broken by the same bully throwing rocks, would you let them throw rocks at your windows or would you confront them? Who is threatening who in this scenario? FDR provoked Japan into attacking the fleet at Pearl Harbour so that international bankers and arms manufacturers could get their hands on US money through war loans and the interest repayments as profit from WWII. The Gulf of Tonkin Incident (which I notice no warmongers have mentioned) was fabricated by the same aforementioned international bankers & arms manufacturers as the pretext for more profits in an unnecessary & unwinnable war in Vietnam. The same agents provocateurs armed Saddam Hussien to the teeth then invited him to retake Kuwait into the pre-WWI borders of Iraq as a pretext for GWI. GWII (The Invasion) was already in the pipeline along with the forced removal of the Taliban/AlQuaida (both of which were created by the CIA incidentally) and 9/11 was the excuse for that. Iran was a peaceful nation ruled by Mosadek who was ousted by the CIA and then ruled tyranically by the Shah (MI6 & CIA stooge), The Iranians then bravely took their destiny & freedom into their own hands & got rid of him, for which the CIA/international bankers/MI6/arms manufacturers never forgave them… Iran has a LOT of oil. BTW the wiretaps 6 months before 9/11 were to find out if anyone had found out about the plans to REALLY fly planes into the WTC, the Pentagon and Congress, not just the cover excersizes. Martial Law would have been implemented had the Military obayed orders to allow Flight 93 to continue on it’s diabolical mission. They shot it down and the world was saved from the prospect of God only knows!

Moonbats at their finest! No wonder the Republicans think they’re all crazy. Rolling Eyes Must be one of Alex Jones’s buddies. The guy also needs to look into a spell checker and a dictionary! Hee hee

I say Kudo’s to our Navy for not blowing those boats out of the water.
