Democrat Jewry Should Reconsider Their Voting Tradition

Read: The Fallaci Code -Important Info on World Events Written by BRENDAN BERNHARD Oriana Fallaci asks: Is Muslim immigration to Europe a conspiracy? See: http://www.powells.com/review/2006_04_02.html

She is savage about the Left, the "Peace" movement (war is a fundamental, if regrettable, condition of life, she states),

(artists, pundits, filmmakers, actors, writers .). Many of the latter, consumed by Bush-hatred and cultural self-loathing, are perilously close to becoming today's equivalent of the great Norwegian novelist Knut Hamsun, who so hated the British Empire that he sided with the Nazis in World War II,

For the first time since she voted to authorize the Iraq war three years ago, 2008 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is now saying that vote was a mistake. She is very likely to be the next Democrat to run for the office of the President of the United States. Unless they break with tradition, American Jewry will be voting their ideology by pulling the lever for Hillary. Personally, I think the liberal Democrat obsession with social engineering is shortsighted and dangerous in light of the gathering threat from hostile Arab nations.

Most people agree that Hillary had a great deal of influence in the Clinton Administration's policies. The first Arab terrorist attack on the World Trade Center, the embassy bombings, the U.S.S. Cole, and others, all constituted acts of war, and were all but ignored, demonstrating to the world that the US neither had the will, nor the leadership to retaliate against what President Bush called the "axis of evil". The democrat's weakness emboldened the Arab terrorists and no doubt contributed to the catastrophe of 9/11.

Instead of a war on Arab terrorists, the war the Democrats are fighting is against a Christian majority in America, and the fight is for reproductive rights, gay marriage, and more government control of the economy by expanding the power of the Federal Government using the Commerce Clause. Through judicial activism, they have created a right of privacy that does not include the right to bear arms. Democrat leadership has turned against American's who have a constitutional right to own guns. Defenders of the Second Amendment are on the lookout for a new Democrat campaign, already attempted in one state, to brand handguns as "weapons of mass destruction."

Unfortunately, liberals tend to bash Bush without a scintilla of evidence or intellectual honesty. The only people deceived by their bluster are those who rely on 60-second sound bites, headlines, and network news. The result in some cases is that many Americans have a distorted or completely fallacious understanding about the Bush administration and its policies.

Don't say that the mass media is not predominantly composed of liberals who hate Bush because it doesn't even pass the laugh test. Their desire is to arrogate to the power of the press, the power of government. Their aim is to advance their liberal, some say "progressive" agenda. Journalistic integrity gives way to ideology and we see such an example in Dan Rather. Anyone who knows had to conclude that he and his staff must have orchestrated "memogate" to misinform voters.

The liberal power grab ignores what is best for the United States in the short-term. Liberal Democrats have undermined the war on terror by equating it to the quagmire created by Lyndon Johnson in Vietnam. They ignore the vast improvement in the quality of life now enjoyed by citizens of a democratic Iraq. As MSM continues to report the "bad news" of deaths in the war on terror, it ignores the capitulation of Arab nations that are joining the war as an ally of the US. As Americans and coalition men and women die for a noble cause, leaders of the Democrat Party like John Kerry claims that the US Military in Iraq are "terrorizing" women and children.

If you don't want this country to go the way of central Europe, vote Republican.

"I take responsibility for my vote, and I, along with a majority of Americans, expect the president and his administration to take responsibility for the false assurances, faulty evidence and mismanagement of the war," So spake Hillary Clinton looking older, but not sounding wiser. Having to appeal to her eroding far left liberal base, she is once again showing her true colors, which like a chameleon change as the seasons change.

Perhaps we need to remember what really happened and forget the Clinton version of history. On September 12^th,2001, the President of the United States, George W. Bush spoke to the world:

Americans have many questions tonight. Americans are asking: Who attacked our country? The evidence we have gathered all points to a collection of loosely affiliated terrorist organizations known as al Qaeda. They are the same murderers indicted for bombing American embassies in Tanzania and Kenya, and responsible for bombing the USS Cole. [Graciously the President did not remind Americans that Hillary was in the Whitehouse when those bombings took place.]

Our war on terror begins with al Qaeda, but it does not end there. It will not end until every terrorist group of global reach has been found, stopped and defeated.

Americans are asking: How will we fight and win this war? We will direct every resource at our command -- every means of diplomacy, every tool of intelligence, every instrument of law enforcement, every financial influence, and every necessary weapon of war -- to the disruption and to the defeat of the global terror network.

This war will not be like the war against Iraq a decade ago, with a decisive liberation of territory and a swift conclusion. It will not look like the air war above Kosovo two years ago, where no ground troops were used and not a single American was lost in combat. [When Hillary now says that the President gave false assurances, does she remember what he said on September 12^th?]

Our response involves far more than instant retaliation and isolated strikes. Americans should not expect one battle, but a lengthy campaign, unlike any other we have ever seen. It may include dramatic strikes, visible on TV, and covert operations, secret even in success. We will starve terrorists of funding, turn them one against another, drive them from place to place, until there is no refuge or no rest. And we will pursue nations that provide aid or safe haven to terrorism. Every nation, in every region, now has a decision to make. Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists. (Applause.) From this day forward, any nation that continues to harbor or support terrorism will be regarded by the United States as a hostile regime.

Hillary will say that the president promised but failed to enlist the assistance of the United Nations, an organization that her husband has expressed a desire to lead, an organization that is most likely one of the most corrupt and feckless world organization with the possible exception of the European Union. But the president did ask, and was rebuffed, but was not deterred, and retaliated as he should have against forces of evil that are responsible for the most proactive and punitive assault against Americans ever waged on U.S. soil.

We ask every nation to join us. We will ask, and we will need, the help of police forces, intelligence services, and banking systems around the world. The United States is grateful that many nations and many international organizations have already responded -- with sympathy and with support. Nations from Latin America, to Asia, to Africa, to Europe, to the Islamic world. Perhaps the NATO Charter reflects best the attitude of the world: An attack on one is an attack on all.

Our nation -- this generation -- will lift a dark threat of violence from our people and our future. We will rally the world to this cause by our efforts, by our courage. We will not tire, we will not falter, and we will not fail.

It is my hope that in the months and years ahead, life will return almost to normal. We'll go back to our lives and routines, and that is good. Even grief recedes with time and grace. But our resolve must not pass. Each of us will remember what happened that day, and to whom it happened. We'll remember the moment the news came -- where we were and what we were doing. Some will remember an image of a fire, or a story of rescue. Some will carry memories of a face and a voice gone forever. [Hillary has forgotten. Where is her resolve? Where does her loyalty lie?]

We know that our President has the resolve and integrity that the anti-war far left faction that Hillary leads does not have. Hillary has abandoned the dead in New York City, and in Washington, and the heroes and heroines of 9/11 who died in a field in Pennsylvania. To Hillary they are the forgotten dead, but we have not forgotten, and we must remind Hillary that our friends and loved ones have not died in vain, and we must remind her that this President will avenge their deaths but continuing the good fight until the last act of anti American violence has ended in defeat.

Hillary, read the words of a great President who we honor with our prayers and support:

I will not forget this wound to our country or those who inflicted it. I will not yield; I will not rest; I will not relent in waging this struggle for freedom and security for the American people.
