Bush should get the song translated into Arabic, Persian and French and have the Marine band - conducted by Donald Rumsfeld - play it at his inauguration.
ROFL!!!!!
What a great Idea........
I thought Kerry's theme song was the old Slade standard:
"Run, Run Away!"
I suggest we send all those Senators who voted AGAINST the funds for up armoring the Hummers, yet are now screaming from Rumsfiled's head, to Iraq to explain to our troops WHY they voted AGAINST giving them the tools for the job.
I also suggest we tell the troops it is open season on US Senators and their is no bag limit.
Scum, pure unadulterated scum is all these Media Whores are.
Because of his great overall direction of the war effort, Rumsfeld was able to actually send letters to the 1000+ dead. Johnson and the instigators of other Democrat wars have had to send telegrams to the families of the thousands of casualties their 'conflicts' caused. The only people writing letters then were the officers who suffered from their mismanagement.
Rummy 2008!
Patton was made to apologize for slapping a GI. Rumsfeld tells troops asking for armor 'tough sh-t' and there must have been too many deaths for him to take the time to sign his name. Bush took the time. Troops deserve respect. Rumsfeld should go back, call the troops together and apologize as Patton did before he was allowed to continue in command.
This is a wise man.
We are winning.
Everything (except the media) says it.
Those who don't admit it are the deluded or the deceitful.
Get Nancy Sinatra to redo her famous These Boots are made for Marching song. (That is, if she is still alive!)
Merry Christmas to Our Troops
Armor fiasco could backfireExcerpt:Now Bush's critics (including some self-interested Republicans) want him to admit that the war in Iraq has gone wrong by firing Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld. The immediate justification is equipment shortages, an issue that made headlines when a G.I. complained to Rumsfeld that he and his buddies had to rummage in scrap heaps to "up-armor" their vehicles.
The President has no reason to do this. For one thing, his policy in Iraq is not a failure. But it will be if he listens to his detractors.
The U.S. can't lose a shooting war in Iraq. Its military might is too great. But insurgencies are fueled by optimism. The hope of the jihadis and Saddamites is that they can persuade Americans that this war, like Vietnam, is unwinnable.
Bush's job is to take that hope away by making America's enemies, in Iraq and beyond, believe that the U.S. cannot and will not be stopped.
Reelection helps. Nobody in the Middle East read the results as a vindication of Republican principles on gay marriage, abortion or Social Security reform. It was seen as a mandate for war. Bush is the strong horse, and he has been given four more years to run.
The Arab world understands the determined use of force almost as much as it is mystified by irony (bitterly cynical humor is another story). Bush's victory, followed by the successful election in Afghanistan and the brutal capture of Fallujah, has had a clarifying effect.
Suddenly, the Sunnis in Iraq are talking seriously about participating in the Jan. 30 election. This is not due to a spontaneous outbreak of Jeffersonian enlightenment in Saddamland. On the contrary, it is a cool appreciation of which way the strong horse is running.

No wartime President can afford to be Hamlet, or even Bruce Springsteen. This is Tom Petty time: Gonna stand my ground, won't be turned around/And I'll keep this world from draggin' me down/... I won't back down.
Bush should get the song translated into Arabic, Persian and French and have the Marine band - conducted by Donald Rumsfeld - play it at his inauguration.
Please let me know if you want ON or OFF my General Interest ping list!. . .don't be shy.
George Patton Speech
I want you to remember that no bas*ard ever won the war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor, dumb bas*ard die for his country. Men, all this stuff youve heard about America not wanting to fight wanting to stay out of the war - is a lot of horse dung! Americans traditionally love to fight! All REAL Americans love the sting of battle ..
And HERE is the full statement (both the MOVIE version and Patton's actual speech are here).
Which is exactly why the Liberals and clueless RINOs are attacking Rumsfeld.They want us to cut bait and run.
LOL. Classic.
Great idea. And they can make sure the Jihadi Patsies McCain, Hagel, Collins are seated as far in the back as possible....behind a post.
What the 'Rats and 'Rat media don't get is that the election is over - and that whatever temptation Bush might have had for unprincipled actions because of the pragmatics of re-election - it is long gone now.
Bush will rule for the esoteric good of the nation - a concept that 'Rats haven't understood for a long time, if they ever even did. Now - when they nitpick from all these trivial angles, like a 3rd world juvenile pickpocket, Bush can serenely tell them "Rumsfield is doing a great job, he has my full confidence - and you can cram it."
Big GWB and Rumsfeld ~ Bump!
