The problem is not peculiar to Barack Obama. If it were there would be nothing to worry about. But his ideas, to use a current term, are mainstream, at least within certain circles. For example, the Chicago City Council led by a variety of leftist aldermen, Scott Ritter, Walt Mearsheimer and Karen Dolan are embarked upon a "hands off Iran" campaign. After Downing Street writes, "Obama's Hometown Considers Resolution Against War with Iran". Hamas and people like Hamas are heroes to a lot more people than one would think.

And that's how it was back when. It's embarassing to recall now, but in the 1930s the cool thing a young man or woman to be was either a "virile" fascist or a "committed" Communist. To wear a blackshirt or a red armband then was as cool as it is to wear a keffiyeh today. If you weren't a fan of one of these two totalitarianisms you were a jerk. A Colonel Blimp. A Salvation Army tootler. And that fact illustrates, to a large extent, why totalitariansm was so dangerous in Europe.

If Bush and McCain addressed the last 4 years in this manner Republicans wouldn’t be in dire straits now.

Drop the new tone crap and kick butt.

Being a committed Bible believing Christian, I can only say that bible prophecy is being fulfilled daily as the Lord is making Israel a burdensome stone and all nations that will come against her God will destroy in the person of Jesus Christ.
We are living in the latter days and bible prophecy is being fulfilled as God has stared the timeclock Israel to bring in the 1000 year rule of Jesus Christ on the earth.
And he uses fools to bring him glory as He undermines them while they try to destroy us.

Just as the Soviets squealed like pigs when the truth was told about them, Obama’s hagiographers and brazen sycophants are whining about how unfair it is to even criticize a policy Obama has advocated. It's even racist in their minds not to agree with the great leader. Obama is weak on democracy. He's eager to fight with Bush, but Wright, dictators abroad, and anyone who hates America gets Obama’s respect, friendship, and admiration.

“Some seem to believe that we should negotiate with the terrorists and radicals, as if some ingenious argument will persuade them they have been wrong all along. We have heard this foolish delusion before. As Nazi tanks crossed into Poland in 1939, an American senator declared: ‘Lord, if I could only have talked to Hitler, all this might have been avoided.’ We have an obligation to call this what it is — the false comfort of appeasement, which has been repeatedly discredited by history.”

What a brilliant definition of today's Dims! Worthy of framing! Trully defines George W. Bush' legacy as a great statesman! No wonder the Dims are squirming! Couldn't have given McCain any better Home Run Ball if the magnificent bastard, Rove, himself had written it....let's see if McCain can knock it out of the park!

"The speed with which Democrats recognized themselves in that particular paragraph is telling."

W tossed a shoe out there, the Dims promptly put it on and it fits just right.

Course the Rats claim there is no attacking outside the Country, like their attacks on President Bush never happened.

Pray for W and Our Troops

Bush was referring to Carter.

Go to Drudge and you will find the article there.

The Drive by’s are trying to tie McCain to President Bush’s statement. That McCain has not weighed in yet tells me he is playing Rope A Dope. Rope A Dope is a very good tactic for this Dope.

Considering the nitwit mentality of the Democrats--and their degerate, decadent, odious, meretritious, self-serving, anti-American positions--electing a Republican President and Republican majorities in both houses of Congress this November should be a cinch.

However, we can depend on the invertebrate and agonadal Republicans to reach all the way into the duodedum of Victory to wrest out defeat.

What ought to be a Republican landslide in November is likely to be a cliffhanger--thanks to Republican assaninity.

Obama: "I will cut investments in unproven missile defense systems, ....I will not weaponize space... I will slow development of future combat systems... I will institute a 'Defense Priorities Board' to ensure the quadrennial defense review is not used ..."

Then, there will be peace in our time without the evil republicans causing war!

My change is good for Muslims, Islamofascists, Black Racists, and Chrislims. $crew the Christians and real Jews!
