Thanks Mia T for the ping. Another great effort and warning re the damage done; and the threat posed, by the Clintonites. . .the 'Left' et al. I do hope your work - somehow - gets recognition beyond the 'far and the wide' world of Free Republic!

As to your comments . . .[ The Bush camp has failed miserably here... and it continues to fail. When the Bushies finally do (occasionally) respond, their answers are much too oblique and genteel. . .The Bushies must understand that this campaign is not an exercise in personal loyalty or achievement; it is a collective loyalty to the Constitution. Bush swore to preserve, protect and defend it.]. . .

Could not agree more, Mia; and this has been one of my biggest concerns/peeves/gripes and disappointments, re the 'Presidents Bush' and in general, Republicans who just feel compelled to 'make nice' as they wipe another shot of Demrat spit out of their eyes or off the pages of our Constitution.

I am well past understanding that our Repubs want to be better than that; or their just not realizing that collective America and the authors of our Constitution deserve a response to these attacks that are equal to the threat they pose. It is beyond infuriating; and it is demoralizing.

But the enemies of America deserve to hear the harshest truth. We deserve to hear the truth, if only calmly, from our leaders, of those who arrogantly and determinedly, define themselves as our enemies here at home.

Many similarities, beyond the metaphor, as it relates to our war on terrorism. But then; 'war is war' and our enemies, are just that.

In my heart of hearts; believe if GW has not taken the 'gentle path'- which he walked for his campaign against Gore; then Florida could not or would not - have happened. And felt the same re his Father; as he campaigned against Bill Clinton; imagine a different ending.

But hey; Life happens!

Thanks Mia T. and a bump included, of course. ;^)

The man is beyond belief. Here we have the usual sniveling self-congatulatory leftist in Effington on one hand and krinton, the rapist-sociopath, on the other.

Forget a return to morals. Forget saving the Republic. What we really need is to graduate more well trained shrinks.

Just 7 virgins? It used to be 72 virgins. Guess so many have blown themselves to smithereens that there's a shortage of virgins. Soon, there won't be any and then what?

Bush is asking the wrong questions....

The overriding issue is not about matters personal. Bush's personal ambition (or lack thereof)... or personally loyalty... must not cloud the calculus.

The overriding issue is this: Will President George W. Bush remain loyal to the Constitution?

"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

Article II, Section 1 of the U.S. Constitution

Preserving, protecting and defending America is the president's only charge.

We are facing annihilation now because, frankly, Dubya's dad, similarly indisposed to the notions of the street fight and a larger collective loyalty, enabled the election of clinton, profoundly, dysfunctionally, self-servingly dangerous in much the same way Kerry is profoundly, dysfunctionally, self-servingly dangerous.

Worse still, George H.W. Bush allowed the election of someone he KNEW TO A CERTAINTY was profoundly, dysfunctionally, self-servingly dangerous.

George W. Bush must put aside the personal... and all conservatives must put aside the provincial. Winning this apocalyptic war is all that matters now.

Achieving a low soldier mortality rate with a policy of artful battlefield-and-responsibility-avoidance is hardly the measure of commander-in-chief success.

THE CLINTONS--AMERICA'S BIGGEST BLUNDER
Hear Bush 41 Warn Us--October 19, 1992*

CNN's favorite general, Wesley Clark, has also been heard to opine that our troops are getting bogged down in Iraq. His competence to judge American generals is questionable since his command was limited to working for NATO. We prefer to hear from American generals. Clark's contribution to international relations consisted of mistakenly bombing the Chinese embassy in Belgrade. In his zeal to prevent troop casualties, he ordered pilots to fly at such high altitudes that the pilots complained that they were being forced to incur unnecessary civilian casualties.

Ann Coulter
The enemy within

hear
*Thanx to Cloud William for text and audio

 

LEHRER: President Bush, your closing statement, sir.

PRESIDENT BUSH: Three weeks from now--two weeks from tomorrow, America goes to the polls and you're going to have to decide who you want to lead this country ...

On foreign affairs, some think it's irrelevant. I believe it's not. We're living in an interconnected world...And if a crisis comes up, ask who has the judgment and the experience and, yes, the character to make the right decision?

And, lastly, the other night on character Governor Clinton said it's not the character of the president but the character of the presidency. I couldn't disagree more. Horace Greeley said the only thing that endures is character. And I think it was Justice Black who talked about great nations, like great men, must keep their word.

And so the question is, who will safeguard this nation, who will safeguard our people and our children? I need your support, I ask for your support. And may God bless the United States of America.

(Applause)

"Worse still, George H.W. Bush allowed the election of someone he KNEW TO A CERTAINTY was profoundly, dysfunctionally, self-servingly dangerous."

You know, I do think Bush was blinded by his own 'goodness' here.

He surely knew Clinton's reputation; and think that in even the wildest of his ruminations re the 'Clinton sleeze factor'; could the gentle/refined Bush imagine a 'President Clinton'. Believe that Bush assumed that Clinton was 'over-reaching'; and that America could/would see; what so many already knew.

Of course, by the time the realization of Clinton succeeding had set in; it was too late. . .

GW can have no such illusions about the nature of our enemy or the kind of battle that he must be engaged. (A few lost rounds with Kennedy, should have been enough of a wake-up call for Bush - but still; he wears the soft gloves). I hope behind the scenes,there is more than meets our eye here.

That said. . .you hit the nail on the head perfectly:

"winning recipe for Bush: add a dollop of New York street fighter..."

And yes, it is not simply a choice; but a duty required. . .

click on the apple.

Bush 1 knew.

But his warning about clinton and national security was too oblique, too genteel.

He should have said, it was his DUTY to say: "This aberration is a danger to our national security."
