While We Go About Our Daily Lives . . .

America's men and women in the military continue their mission in some really god-forsaken parts of the world in order that we can experience life in this great country.

 

 

The Power of the Military

You tell me this wouldn't rattle your body just a bit if you were on board the USS New Jersey at the time these bad boys fired ! ! !

 

Ignorance is Bliss Apparently . . .

. . . as the President lives in never-never land seeing the world through his limited and shockingly uneducated view of the Arab-Israeli conflict.

Just absolutely amazing . . .

The Man Is Too Small

a phrase that describes so perfectly the current occupant of the White House . . . 

Rich Lowery explains why he says it is so in today's edition of the National Review Online. Click here to read an excellent piece on "The Whiniest President Ever".

Revisionist History Gets A Reality Check

this is so good . . .

Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice is someone that we can all agree is very calm and is not a flame thrower. I've always appreciate her thought process; her understanding of the world and the realities of that world. So at a recent forum on the Iraq War, it was great seeing her stop "the perky-one", Katie Couric, in her tracks when Couric went down the Left's favor path of revisionist history on the Iraq War:

               

 

Now that was refreshing and I just love Rice's polite but stern rebuke of Couric and the Leftist radicals that love to play gotcha-hindsight-revisionist history.The take away phrase from this is:

"What you know today can effect what you know and do tomorrow but what you know today can not effect what you did yesterday."

 

"Facts are stubborn things"

Thank You . . .

Hope And Change Goes Nuclear

yet another leftist policy that ignores reality . . .

President Obama is bringing Hope and Change to our nuclear deterrent policy and it's not good. Our good conservative friends (sarcasm inserted here!) at the New York Times write that Obama's new nuclear strategy narrows down the conditions under which the U.S. will use them. Basically put, we are telegraphing to any and all when we will use them.

For those unfamiliar with the position taken by all nuclear age Presidents up to The Arrogant One, The New York Times explains it this way:

"It eliminates much of the ambiguity that has deliberately existed in American nuclear policy since the opening days of the cold war. For the first time, the United States is explicitly committing not to use nuclear weapons against nonnuclear states that are in compliance with the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty, even if they attacked the United States with biological or chemical weapons or launched a crippling cyberattack."

My god man have you completely lost your mind? Oh, sorry, I forget, we are playing nice now. I guess this goes along with the bowing to foreign leaders; siding with Terrorist states over the interests of Israel; making warm and fuzzy with Latin American dictators. Yup, got to love all this Hope and Change.

Maybe next, we could just open up our computers to anyone who wants to take top Defense Department weapons plans. I mean, heck, this way it evens out the playing field of war and makes us all warm inside.

Good lord, so how much longer do we have these amateurs in the White House???????

Closing Gitmo Changes Nothing

leftists and anti-American voices will be emboldened if we close Gitmo . . .

So tell me how closing Gitmo and moving these low-life slugs onto U.S. soil in Illinois solves anything?

The argument of the Left and soft Republicans like Lindsey Graham of South Carolina is that Gitmo is a recruiting tool for terrorists.

So how exactly is moving these folks inside the U.S. going to make a difference Mr. Graham? Hello, they will actually be on U.S. soil, common sense says if Gitmo is a recruiting tool than Gitmo-north in Illinois will be too. 

The stupidity of all this is just astounding. This isn't taking the moral high ground Mr. Graham, it's a moral house of cards.

Terrorist Rejoice-Obama's Got A Great Recuitment Plan for You

this could turn out to be the biggest single set back to freedoms fight against terrorists . . .

All through last year's election, Obama and his cult followers linked Gitmo to terrorist recruitment. If it wasn't for the arrogance of Bush and his putting these poor, misunderstood folks at Gitmo, there would be no terrorists they said over and over again!

Former Vice President Dick Cheney described this irrational cult like view earlier this year as "recruitment tool theory". Obama repeated this claim as recently as May 21, 2009 in his speech at the National Archives when he said:

"The existence of Guantanamo likely created more terrorists around the world"

Ok, so now let's fast forward and Obama through his front man Eric Holder, is going to bring five of these low life pieces of garbage onto the world stage and into our civil court system via a big screen near you.

Now think about that. Each trial will be televised. And for the big tuna in this whole catch,  professed 9-11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, his trail will be 24/7 coverage on all the cable outlets. It will make the OJ Simpson circus dwarf in comparison.

But the worst part is that you can bet KSM and his co-horts will be fully dressed in white Middle East garb from head to toe. They will play the part of the victim. I can just see it, their images broadcast world wide to every cave in the Middle East. And their ACLU-pro-bono attorneys will take the attack that OJ's lead attorney Johnnie Cochran took. Put the Government on trial; force it to release classified document; reveal intelligence methods; etc.

Gosh, you think this worldwide televised event, day after day after day, will be a recruitment tool for terrorists around the world??????????????

You think?

As Rush says, "How's all this hope and change working out for you?"

THIS JUST IN:

The Chairmen of this Year's Rush-Pledge Class for the Islamic Jihad Fraternity are revealed:

It's Good To Be An American

would be nice if Mr. Obama would express that as he talks to those around the world . . .

Many have mentioned how President Obama failed to talk about our exceptionalism during his speech to the United Nations this week. Instead, he took his apology tour directly to the U.N. and again took the opportunity to lower the United States to a level of the likes of Iran, Venezuela, North Korea and Libya.

It’s mystifying why the President didn’t mention that we believe in people; we believe that the best is yet to come; we believe that the call of liberty and freedom finds comfort in the hearts and minds of people worldwide. Ours is a nation of immigrants and a safe harbor for those seeking freedom of expression and religion.

Rather than apologize to the world, Obama should have reminded members that the United States has led the world in the search for innovations and advancements to improve the quality of life and extend the life expectancy of man.  When the people of the world face natural disaster or disease, the United States leads the world in providing relief and cures. When the people of the world are searching for hope, the United States is the beacon of hope for the downtrodden. When the people of the world are threatened by dark forces, the United States steps forward to combat the threat of evil.

We are a nation of people whose diverse backgrounds derive from every remote area of this planet. Each unique experience weaves a rich history of the world yet melds into a unifying voice called the United States of America.

We will continue to lead and search for solutions to the world’s problems and we ask that each of you join us in that pursuit, for the people of the world deserve the best that we have to offer.

That is what I would have preferred to hear; sadly just the opposite occurred yet again.
