Real Clear Politics/Investors.com ^ | 9/29/06 | Investor Business Daily

Posted on 10/01/2006 7:31:56 AM PDT by Old Badger

Both sides have failed the Democrats in a more profound manner than the Republicans. At this point the failure to address the border is the largest threat.

The Democrats are allies of the terrorists. They want President Bush to fail in the war on terror. Therefore they want our troops to fail; they want our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan to be killed, wounded, and defeated. The Democrats are frustrated that there have been no terrorist attacks in the United States since 9/11/01, because it tells all who have a brain that President Bush has done an excellent job in his main duty. The terrorists would clearly prefer a Democrat in the Oval Office - someone like BJ Clinton.

NEVER FORGET..Reason No. 98:


After WATERGATE weakend the American Prsidency's capacity to wage War on behalf of the Freedom of others,

...the Democrats in Congress cut-off all U.S. funding for a then Free South Vietnam's Military to fight for its own Freedom with.

...This, just as the Communist Soviet Union gave $6 Billion in Military Aid to Communist North Vietnam for its 'Final Solution' in the South.

Our country is at stake if another Carter gets elected. The Kerry's, Murtha's, Kennedy's and their ilk seek to destroy this republic, and, may succeed by virtue of a dumbed down electorate.

This is an excellent article. Many points worth repeating and emphasizing. Here's one I particularly like:

a group of Russian generals were asked about the one key that led to the collapse of the USSR. They were unanimous in their response: "Star Wars."

Thank you for your kindness.

We're just trying to stop Election Year 2006 from becoming another Election Year 1974,

...after which the Demcrats ABANDONED a Free South Vietnam while gutting our own Intelligence Community's capacity to protect US.

But this time around it's another 'Cut and Run' Decmocrat move, coupled with their already planned filing of House Articles of Impeachment against President BUSH over his bringing Freedom to Iraq and Afghanistan.


Totally NUTS.

Long ago TED KENNEDY did in fact lead Congress into abandoning a then Free South Vietnam's Fight for it's own Freedom, when he just KNEW better.

See 5th Picture in the below Vietnam War Pictures' link of a young Senator KENNEDY persoanally touring a then Free South Vietnam's War for its own Freedom, taken long before he went a "bit" off the Deep End:

And a 'Deep Ended' Senator TED KENNEDY is at it again now, with OUR own Freedom directly at stake here at home.

You always remind us of what was important about the pullout of Viet Nam. It's still vitally impactful.

Thank you for that and for your service to our country.
