He is an empty vessel to be filled by the febrile dreams of fetishists and losers.

This morning Vets for Freedom Political Action launched its first internet advertisement, which asks Senator Barack Obama (D-IL) why he is willing to meet, unconditionally, with foreign dictators, but has shown no interest in meeting with Commanders on the Ground and has not visited Iraq in over 2 years.

The 60-second ad, which was released at 8 am E.T. today, features retired Iraq war veteran Sergeant Garrett Anderson. Click here to view the ad. Sergeant Anderson served in Iraq with the Illinois Army National Guard, and was severely wounded when his patrol was hit by an IED.
The ad highlights the unfortunate fact that:

1) Senator Obama has never met, one-on-one, with the Commander in Iraq, General David Petraeus.

2) Senator Obama has not visited Iraq, and our brave troops on the ground, in over two years. His last visit to Iraq was January 2006, and he was there for less than two days.

3) On April 8, when two-dozen Illinois veterans went to his office for a meeting, Senator Obama was unwilling to meet with them. He was in the office, just wouldn’t come out. Sergeant Anderson was a member of that group.

Why, EVERYONE knows that there is no need for a military in this country anymore....

After all, why do we need nuclear bombs and fighter jets, aircraft carriers and such anymore??

We all now that the world is WAY past the need for war. After all,once that evil Bush and those evil neo-cons are out, then we can ALL live happily ever after, and all that will be needed anymore is a handshake, and a promise from the other countries—and we will ALL live in peace for evermore!!

I live in Boston you idiot and am the furthest thing from a “metro dwelling radical leftist” you ever met.

Then it is time, perhaps past time, for you and other conservatives to get out of those ground zero targets -- by moving to more conservative strongholds or at least, for Boston area conservatives, by moving to New Hampshire.

But moving to relatively conservative strongholds such as Houston and Colorado Springs may not be wise either since the Islamists may target those places too.

I get it - - I should leave my home of 69 years - - leave my children and grandchildren - - all of my friends and go to a state that subsidizes Ward Churchill.

Are you on drugs or something?

I am still amazed that you celebrate the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Americans because you disagree with their politics.

By the way, only liberals have the arrogance to decide other people’s lifestyles.
