It Doesn't Get Any Better Than This

" ....... I heard Dick Morris say that he believed the request for more troops was really an effort to make President Bush reinstate the draft (we're already using reserves). Has anyone else heard this? Does anyone else subscribe to that theory? It's an interesting thought because aside from partisan political gain, there is no logical reason for all of the Assrabbits to keep parroting "more troops....more troops....more troops.......""

They already tried that

Rep. Charles Rangel, D-N.Y., wants to reinstate the military draft, saying fighting forces should more closely reflect the economic makeup of the nation. CNNfn's Peter Viles reports (January 8)

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Rep. Charles Rangel introduced a bill in Congress Tuesday to reinstate the military draft, saying fighting forces should more closely reflect the economic makeup of the nation.

The Democratic Party is our enemy.

First Durbin.....I can't stand the guy. I wrote a polite but direct letter to him regarding the judicial nominees/filibuster ..... never received so much as a form letter in return.

As for the accomplishments of the Administration and President..... the dems continue to "misunderestimate" the "stratergery". Failing any bad turn of events, I suspect the perfect storm is brewing for the democrats in 2004. The shift will be seismic - in the presidential election and congress. It will be as much the President's doing as it will be the dems. The map on election night will be red, baby!

she reminds me an awful lot of the stereotypical public grade-school cafeteria drudge. all she needs to complete the image is a plastic hairbag and a big mole on her lip with a few nasty hairs poking out...

Thanks for the post. I haven't read a lot of Fred Barnes' articles, but this is by far the best that I have ever read. He really nails the mental instability of the individuals cited.

[King Prout]

talking points... and to keep their various factions agitated and unassimilated into the American norm.
"slavery reparations" is a case in point. All it does is keep a large demographic in a constant state of dissaffection and desire for government handouts.

President Bush is brilliant, and what's more, he's brilliant FOR us! For OUR security, OUR prosperity, OUR well-being!

I agree. We are in the midst of the Great President and an Outstanding Administration.

[Ditter]

Great piece, thanks for posting it.

(i am a BUSH bot ... i am a BUSH bot .. i am a BUSH bot ... she sings happily)

YEA! President George Bush YEA!

Democrats were flummoxed by Saddam's capture.

He stole my word. :^)

[Samwise]

Here's the list: capture of Saddam Hussein, Libyan dictator Muammar Qaddafi's about-face, enactment of a prescription drug entitlement, signing of the first rollback of Roe v. Wade, fastest economic growth in 19 years, quickest pace in worker productivity gains in 20 years, two-decade high in increased manufacturing activity, significant drop in jobless claims, lowest underlying rate of inflation in 38 years, and rock-bottom interest rates. Oh, yes, the stock market: A week before Christmas, the Dow's up 23 percent for the year, 4 percent since Thanksgiving.

The Democrats are getting caught in The Perfect Storm,

The science and art of using all the forces of a nation to execute approved plans as effectively as possible during peace or war while simultaneously allowing the enemy to flummox himself.

Quaddaffi is a direct result of the "Saddam factor" that Dean said didn't exist. I realize negotiations had been going on for some time---even years---but it is just too coincidental that ol' crazy eyes suddenly decided to move on this.

Think about it: Afghanistan, Iraq, and Libya all "pacified" or "neutralized" as terror theats in less than three years. Iran, Syria, and Yemen must know they are on the agenda. I look for Syria and Yemen to start making all the right noises. Iran may take some covert ops to topple the government. Then it will be all eyes on the North Koreans.

Given the "level of difficulty," Bush has scored a 9.8 so far. If he gets Osama, and Syria, Iran, and Yemen fall into line, this will go down as one of the most incredible international campaigns in human history.

I'm just now reading a book by a former leftist on Sacco and Vanzetti. It's amazing how the Left rabidly defends the most guilty of murderers just because they "must" be innocent (in the Left's view).

[chiller]

Hmmmm.....I'm dieing to know if W and Rove knew the content of the Demo response and went public with Saddam's capture on hoping to splatter big egg on the Dems faces. They obviously scrambled fast enough to avoid disaster.

OTOH, probably not. By holding the news a few hours they would have splattered egg all over Durbin.

[chiller]

"this will go down as one of the most incredible international campaigns in human history.

You are not overstating the impact. Hundreds of years from now, this will be seen as a turning point in this planet's history.

a big mole on her lip with a few nasty hairs poking out

She's such an a**hole, she has a pilonidal cyst on her face. ;)

That woman is a real embarrassment to this country.

And hopefully, there will be a footnote in that history of Howard 'Doc' Dean getting a job as a senior ski instructor in Aspen in the winter of 2004!

Hey Doc, "What was your favorite choice of skin treatment when you went skiing with that "bad back" after the military let you slide - Reflectant Sunsceen Cream, Sun E45 High Protection, or Coppertone UltraShade 23 Lotion?

Democratic presidential frontrunner Howard Dean reacted with remarkable pigheadedness. He inserted in a speech the claim that Saddam's jailing did not make America safer. Earlier he had said Saddam was a "threat" to the United States. So Dean would have it that a threat was removed with no gain in safety for America. That defies logic. Besides, documents from Saddam's briefcase showed he was in regular touch, by courier, with terrorist cells perpetrating attacks on American soldiers and Iraqis. Once that was known, Dean could have revised his view. He didn't. He tossed out three charges against the president. One, Bush had claimed a direct link between al Qaeda and Saddam and later retracted the claim. Two, Bush had said the United States knew where Saddam's weapons of mass destruction were. Three, Bush had declared Saddam an "imminent danger." Dean was wrong on all three counts.

Dean to Saddam: Hang in there, buddy !
I've already put in a call to Johnny Cochran !

[MeekOneGOP]

And let's not forget about Mad-Maddie Halfwit and her question to Mort Kondracke about Bush hiding away Osama! ... She is one pathetic creature.

Amen to that ! What a LOSER !! ...
