Don’t worry, Bush will be on Pelosi and the Dems like stink on s..t, calling them allies of terrorism, etc.

Any minute now.....

[Tax Government]

Democrats are traitors, pure and simple.

In a rare but revealing slip, Democratic Congressman James Clyburn said that an American victory in Iraq "would be a real big problem for us" in the 2008 elections.

Don’t stop until the job is done.

I think she is getting her orders from her good buddy Murtha. One of the first lines of defense in a war is to cut off the enemies supply line. In affect that is what she hopes will happen. Nothing else has worked to end the war thus far. This is their new tactic.

Was the IBD attacking Bush and siding with Clinton and Gore in 2000, when Bush was using recognizing the Armenian holocaust as a campaign issue?

[mtnwmn]

I have no idea if IBD was or was not. Don’t recall Bush using the Armenian holocaust as a campaign issue either.

There is no doubt in my mind that the democrats will do whatever it takes to lose this war.

Let’s not use the word ‘treason”. Instead, Roget suggests:

“crime, deceit, deceitfulness, deception, disaffection, dishonesty, duplicity, faithlessness, lese majesty, mutiny, perfidy, revolt, revolution, sedition, seditious act, seditiousness, subversion, traitorousness, treachery”

It’s a Democratic Party U-Pick!

[nickcarraway]

Well, I wouldn't say it was a major issue, but President Bush did make a point of saying he would recognize the Armenian holocaust. It was an issue he used against Gore, since Clinton and Gore were so pro-Turk.

Mr. Vasken Setrakian

Dear Edgar and Vasken,

Thank you for your inquiry to my campaign regarding issues of concern to Armenian Americans.

The twentieth century was marred by wars of unimaginable brutality, mass murder and genocide. History records that the Armenians were the first people of the last century to have endured these cruelties. The Armenians were subjected to a genocidal campaign that defies comprehension and commands all decent people to remember and acknowledge the facts and lessons of an awful crime in a century of bloody crimes against humanity. If elected President, I would ensure that our nation properly recognizes the tragic suffering of the Armenian people.

The Armenian diaspora and the emergence of an independent Republic of Armenia stand as a testament to the resiliency of the Armenian people. In this new century, the United States must actively support the independence of all the nations of the Caucasus by promising the peaceful settlement of regional disputes and the economic development of the region. American assistance to Armenia to encourage the development of democracy, the rule of law and a tolerant open society is vital. It has my full support.

I am encouraged by recent discussions between the governments of Armenia and Azerbaijan. The United States should work actively to promote peace in the region and should be willing to serve as a mediator. But ultimately peace must be negotiated and sustained by the parties involved. Lasting peace can come only from agreements they judge to be in their best interests.

I appreciate the tremendous contribution of the Armenian community to the United States. The Armenian community has been and will continue to be a model of dedication to values of faith and family.

Sincerely,

(signed)
George W. Bush

Should we institute sharia law here in the U.S., because we might offend Turkey if we don’t? Should we let Turkey bully the supposedly great U.S., even though we give them tons of money and support?

[null and void]

Hmmmmmm. Anyone know how to get Google to show an image of Pelosi any time someone searches for an image of a turkey vulture?

Nor do I recall Clinton or Gore being so pro-Turk?!?! In the letter it seems to me Bush is pushing peace through democracy.

The issue today is Pelosi and her ilk interfering in matters that worsens the situation as far as American lives and interests are concerned.

I stand corrected on the Murtha part:
