Hi SS, very good piece. The above sentence says it all for the mindset of the Democratic Party from the early 70's to present.
We can't let it happen again.
We will not let it happen again.
BUSH STOLE MY GAS CAN! :D
Good evening, looks like you're chipper as am I. Posted on the FReeper Canteen thread tonight and used the word new, they sure have a lot of welcomers there. LOL. Sure is great what they do for the troops, especially the weekly music night.
Always fun to chat with you, though! :)
Were you able to pick up that interview with the Gunny on FNC today? It was a good one.
Great article. Thanks for posting it. I liked the phrase about Carter's creation of a "habitat for inhumanity" by his abandonment of the Shah of Iran (I really think Carter is one of our very worst presidents) and the way the article highlights Jamie Gorelick's involvement in preventing us from connecting the dots.

Her Royal Jewness Barbra ,Queen of the Hollywood Left and self-proclaimed foreign policy expert, is she aware of those origins?
Good piece, but almost too short for the scope of what it's trying to relay.
No cheers, unfortunately.
Unfortunately, I think we already have. From day one of his first administration, the rats & old media constantly pilloried the President and purposely divided our nation. They continue to do so in time of war.
The result is a nation without the will to win.
At this point in WWII we were fire bombing Japanese cities and about to land at Normandy. Fast forward and here we are in the fourth year of horrible asymmetric urban warfare in Iraq. By splitting the country, the rats have made sure that we will not do what is necessary to win. Imagine our military being allowed to fight at the same level as the irregulars. The rats, media, UN etc would howl for his impeachment.
The rats know they cannot allow George Bush to win the Iraqi war, lest they be cast in the political wilderness for many years. Make no mistake. Rat opposition to the war is purely political. They gladly watch our brave soldiers and marines died horrible deaths in order to brighten their chance of regaining power.
bump
but during the administration of Jimmy Carter. On taking office in 1977, he declared that advancing "human rights" was among his highest priorities. America's ally, the shah of Iran, was one of his first targets, with Carter chastising him for his human rights record and withdrawing America's support.
(With Apologies to the Bard)
Lord, what fools these democrats be!
I don't think they really (I mean really) believe we are at war. They look at this the same way they do..say highway subsidies. It's either that or large protions of our population are stark raving mad.
