Interesting development…

Developing…..

The statement by an aide to Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki calling his remarks in Der Spiegel “misinterpreted and mistranslated” followed a call to the prime minister’s office from U.S. government officials in Iraq.
Maliki had expressed support for a withdrawal plan similar to that of presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama in an interview with Der Speigel. U.S. troops should leave Iraq “As soon as possible, as far as we’re concerned,” Maliki had said. “U.S. presidential candidate Barack Obama talks about 16 months. That, we think, would be the right timeframe for a withdrawal, with the possibility of slight changes.”
But after the Spiegel interview was published and began generating headlines Saturday, officials at the U.S. embassy in Baghdad contacted Maliki’s office to express concern and seek clarification on the remarks, according to White House spokesman Scott Stanzel.
Later in the day, a Maliki aide released a statement saying the remarks had been misinterpreted, though without citing specific comments. -Source: Maliki Aide’s Statement Came After U.S. Call | The Trail | washingtonpost.com

Of course, the usual suspects of Bush cheerleaders are dismissing this. But some are not. I am taking a wait and see approach. Either way, this whole thing does not look good for John McCain.

Stay Tuned.

Ever notice?

The following:

(Via e-mail, a prominent Republican strategist who occasionally provides advice to the McCain campaign said, simply, “We’re fucked.” No response yet from the McCain campaign, although here’s what McCain said the last time Maliki mentioned withdrawal: “Since we are succeeding, then I am convinced, as I have said before, we can withdraw and withdraw with honor, not according to a set timetable. And I?m confident that is what Prime Minister Maliki is talking about, since he has told me that for many meetings we?’ve had.” — Marc Ambinder (July 19, 2008) – Al-Maliki’s Announcement: A Big Deal

Ever notice, that every time some commie liberal quotes a Republican saying bad things about their chances of winning the White House, that it’s an anonymous person?

Something tells me that Marc Ambinder is lying out of his ass.

Just a big haunch that I have.

A article that I think everyone needs to read.

I think all Americans should read this.

“Obama ain’t black.”
I turned to look over my shoulder to see who had uttered that ridiculous statement.
“Pardon Me?” I squinted at the dark-skinned man who had just interjected himself into my over-coffee conversation with my buddy, Kevin.
“Obama ain’t black.” He said again more matter-of-factly as he walked around the porcelain dividing wall and stood at our table where he could be more active in our conversation.
“My name’s Andree,” he said as he extended his hand. “I couldn’t help but hear what you boys had been discussin’ and I don’t mean to stick my nose in where it don’t belong, but I couldn’t leave without settin’ you straight. Obama ain’t black.”
I looked at Kevin as he shifted nervously in his seat, not sure how to take this visitor to our table.
“Well, have a seat Andree,” somewhat trying to judge the book by its cover. “I’m Dave, but most folks call me Coach, and this is Kevin.” Kevin extended his hand politely.——- Click the link to read the rest of Conveniently Black by Dave Daubenmire (via NewsWithViews.com

I will simply say the following, that it is pretty telling when Obama is doing better in White America, out in places where blacks are in rare supply, than he is in the more urban communities.

I don’t have much to add to this article… Because Dave says it all in this article. Enjoy.

As I thought, Iraqi P.M. says that his words were misunderstood.

Uh-huh, So I thought….

Via Commie News Network, (of all places…)

Quote:

A German magazine quoted Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki as saying that he backed a proposal by presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Sen. Barack Obama to withdraw U.S. troops from Iraq within 16 months. <
“U.S. presidential candidate Barack Obama talks about 16 months,” he said in an interview with Der Spiegel that was released Saturday.
“That, we think, would be the right time frame for a withdrawal, with the possibility of slight changes,” he said.
But a spokesman for al-Maliki said his remarks “were misunderstood, mistranslated and not conveyed accurately.”
Government spokesman Ali al-Dabbagh said the possibility of troop withdrawal was based on the continuance of security improvements, echoing statements that the White House made Friday after a meeting between al-Maliki and U.S. President Bush.

Such as I thought, the Democrat owned and ran communist Liberal media attempted to spin this to make it say that Iraq’s PM wanted us out yesterday. The Iraqi Government saw that and rushed to make it clear, as not to insult those who helped give them Liberty. Good for them.

Of course, the Liberal AP is already spinning that.

What further proof do we need, that Liberal are just commies with a fancy name?

In a related report, even Fallon, who worked at Centcom, says that we should stay there until the damn job is done.

More Local News: Sickening — Fake Ad on craig's list uses dead Michigan soldier's name

Seriously, What kind of sick fucking asshole does something like this? Who? 😡

In response to a Better Business Bureau warning and a freep.com story, the Michigan Attorney General’s Office is looking into an Internet scam that uses the name of fallen U.S. Army Spec. Byron Fouty, spokesman Matt Frendewey said Friday.
Tim Burns, spokesman for the Southfield-based Better Business Bureau said Friday that his office has received several calls about the scam, in which someone claiming to be Fouty’s father, Mick, allegedly is selling his son’s 2006 BMW M6 with an $80,000 Kelly Blue Book value for $2,800 on www.craigslist.org.
But the slain soldier never owned a car, according to his stepfather, Gordon Dibler, who found out about the ad this week. – Phony ad plays off name of soldier (via Detroit Free Press)

Disgusting.

Whoever did this ought to be sent to prison for the rest of their damn lives. Of course, here in the land of Liberal Michigan, they’ll must likely get a slap on the wrist, or at most a few years of prison time.

However, most likely it was done by some poor negro child and the damn liberals will want to have some sort of kumbaya moment and will want to push the idea of his rather ignorant stupidity was caused by how poor he was. Watch, it’ll happen.

The Obamassiah makes it overseas, Iraqi PM supposedly backs Obama's plan of defeat.

A good Saturday afternoon to you all. 😀

The big news cycle today is Obamassiah is on his overseas ~~PhotoOp~~ Trip, and already there is a story out that the Iraqi P.M. is supposedly supporting Obama’s Plan of retreat and defeat.

Actually, this is what is going to happen in Iraq, regardless of what that turban-headed idiot thinks, or his people.

Video:

If you would like to look at the left, wetting themselves over a story, which is most likely been distorted, please feel free to click here.

….and that’s your Saturday non-headline of the day! 😉

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.

You know the silly season has started when………

A Republican Presidential candidate’s campaign accuses a Democrat running against him of being just as bad as the current Republican President.

Via TPM’s Election Central:

The McCain campaign is taking their effort to distance their
candidate from the unpopular President Bush to a whole new level:
McCain’s advisers are now openly attacking Bush on Iraq — and not only
that, they’re also saying that Barack Obama is the one who is like Bush on the war!
On a conference call just now with reporters, McCain foreign policy
adviser Randy Scheunemann compared Barack Obama’s insistence on a
timetable for withdrawal from Iraq to Bush’s insistence that we were
winning even as things went badly for years.
“I think the American people have had enough of inflexibility and
stubbornness in national security policy,” Scheunemann said. When asked
later by the Huffington Post’s Sam Stein whether the campaign was
disparaging President Bush, Scheunemann dug in: “We cannot afford to
replace one administration that refused for too long to acknowledge
failure in Iraq with a candidate that refuses to acknowledge success in
Iraq.”
Forget “McSame.” The candidate who would really continue Bush’s policies is “BushBama.”

Wow…. 😮 😯 Talk about spinning like a top. I have a very bad feeling this is going to backfire on McCain in a really big hurry.

Anyone who thinks that Barack Obama is anything remotely similar than Bush, quite frankly, has got a screw loose.
