THIS WEBSITE has photos from Gulf War I in which Saddam Hussein set Kuwait oil wells on fire as his military was removed.
DFU NOTE: As we watch the battle between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, we have been given some hints at what Hillary has planned.
Behind the scenes, the Clintons and their surrogates are attempting to negotiate with, bribe, and threaten Super Delegates.
Hillary has been working on this presidential race for a couple decades. She is not going away quietly. As did Saddam Hussein, she is prepared to "burn the oil wells." She is not going to back down. She is prepared to destroy individual lives and the Democratic Party if it stands in her way. Anyone who has followed politics even superficially knows that there is nothing she will not do to acquire power.
There will be a battle of attorneys over the unseated delegates from Michigan and Florida. The Clintons have unlimited funds to fight the battle. They have unlimited funds for private investigators to dig up dirt and threaten to release it as necessary. And they have surrogates in the mainstream media prepared to advance the historic Hillary effort to become the first female president.
As we have seen, surrogates talked about drug use and the middle name "Hussein." They cleverly claimed that it was something the evil Republicans would do; it wasn't Hillary's doing. Oh, no.
We are going to see more negative stories about Obama. They will certainly come from the Hillary research team. I haven't been impressed with the ability of the mainstream media to do research.
The chances at this moment are that a Democrat will be in the White House. Some say that will happen even if the GOP candidate wins. We can disagree, but I fear Hillary more than Obama. The info on him hasn't even begun. He may fall as quickly as he arose when the voters see that he really is an empty suit with a good delivery. That is not presidential when we are fighting the Islamofascists.
The Clintons are a criminal enterprise; they are the political Mafia of this country. They are capable of doing anything to anyone at any time. She will shut down talk radio without Congressional involvement. I believe she will name sites such as FR as hate sites and find a way to censor them.
If it comes to it, we will fight Obama. There is a very good chance that he will be portrayed as he is -- a left wing extremist who is totally incompetent to run our foreign policy and oversee our economy. For now, a stake must be driven into the heart of the vampire.

Cannot agree with you more Doug. You’re spot on.
If Florida is seated, the proportional representation is 105 to 67 for Hillary.
Hey Doug,
I agree with your assesment however my belief is that it is over for the Clintons. One of the favorite things the press enjoys is their power to create sacred cows. But what they love more than anything is to turn that sacred cow into hamburger and have a bbq.
When ted kennedy endorsed obama that was the signal for the press to go to it. Have you ever seen so many negative stories on hilary as you have seen in the last 10?
They hauled her up high enough to watch her twist in the wind. I think we are in for a long ugly decomposition of the former clintonese family.
Destroy the Democratic party. Could not happen to a group of more deserving people.
Lemme know when it starts. I’ll bring the popcorn.
I call Gore on the 4th ballot.
I call Gore on the 4th ballot.
Dittos, 100% spot on!
However, I think the Billerys will take Texas and Ohio and sit down with the DNC and Obama to hammer out a deal that gets Obama the VP spot and Bubba some UN bureau in Switzerland to keep him out of the news.
All for naught, I hope. Because, I suspect the McCainiac will pick a certifiable conservative for his VP and win.
Now if he blows a gasket early in his term, all will be right with the world.
Hey, I can dream, can't I?
Not sure about the money. She has the strong backing and support of the Rockefeller people (John D. IV). They have lots and lots; they hate backing losers though.
Excellent analysis Doug.
The Clintons are classic stalkers. Their intended is “power”.
Like all stalkers, if they cannot have their intended, then nobody can. They will destroy it rather than allow their perceived competition to get ahold of it. In this case, that means Obama and the Democrats.
Her rage and desperation will call for an act of mutual assured destruction. That way, she’ll live to fight again in 2012.
I have to quibble, Doug.
She Who Must Not Be Named is the Anointed One. The plan all along was for Her to be the nominee. Barak Husayn Obama is nothing more than a stalking horse, so She can point to this campaign and say, “See? I had to fight for this nomination, it was NOT given to Me!”
The problem is, Barak Husayn has taken on a life of his own; a Frankenstein monster, who wants to live his own life. This whole Obama-gasm by the media was unscripted, and the Clinton machine will now react to it in the only mode they know: The Politics Of Personal Destruction.
Doug - Thank you for all you've done to try to thwart the hag.

Clinton could turn toxic as options dry up (Memo: Hillary To Go Nuclear Against Obama)

Analysis: Clinton could turn toxic as options dry up
The Wisconsin defeat for Hillary Clinton means that she has to win big on March 4 - and may campaign more negatively
A few months back, as Barack Obama’s campaign was just beginning to look like it might seriously challenge Hillary Clinton’s presidential ambitions, a senior Obama campaign official sent a warning to his staff.
It was a succinct message designed to forewarn and forearm his people against what was expected to be a ferocious onslaught from an increasingly desperate Clinton campaign.
“Better get your hazmat suits on”, the memo told them
Mrs Clinton is running out of options. There’s a growing sense that she may now choose to go aggressively negative. She is under pressure from some in her campaign to step up the attacks on Mr Obama, especially over his inexperience.
The Clinton campaign may need to reach deeper into the negative campaigning armoury if they are to have any chance. They will doubtless be looking at Mr Obama’s remarkably low negative ratings in polls and wondering how they can push them up.
Until now the danger has been that negative attacks could backfire. That is a risk that will probably now have to be taken, even if it damages the Democratic party as a whole. The Clintons have only a matter of days to save their lifelong aspirations. They will not give them up without a fight.
