Discovered in the directory left wide open by the Obama site designers: a PDF file containing Obama’s plan to “hold accountable any perpetrators of war crimes” in Iraq.
And something tells me they don’t mean Al Qaeda.
Obama's campaign is kicking around the idea of calling for a complete re-write of Iraq's constitution even as they are withdrawing troops. How they would convince the Iraqi's to go along with this is anyone's guess, but there is no surer perscription of chaos and bloodshed than what they are proposing. It only took nearly two years to get the current Iraqi Constitution, with everything up in the air, how to they propose to keep the peace? The whole concept is idealistic insanity
Now the prospect of perhaps trying the previous administration for the commission of War Crimes is also breath taking, and it leads you to the general understanding that Obama and company are revolutionaries. Danial Ortega perhaps could be considered a conservative beside these people. Nevertheless, this statement is nebulous and they could say it refers to Al Qaeda types.
I can see his lawyers destroying the lives of American Soldiers and Marines everywhere due to his witch hunts.
Said witch hunts will be conducted to inspire more cash donations from his lunatic supporters within the ranks of dangerous organizations like Daily Kos and MoveOn.org. Their targets for prosecution for "war crimes" will be 99% white males.
It will be a damn circus, and it will yield much pleasure for communists, anarchists, terrorists and other assorted criminals already in Obama's bed.
Obama=treason/war criminal and he SHOULD face justice. Jest sayin’. He’s endangering us all.
It would seem that the US Secret Service would obligated to ask Mr. Obama exactly who he has in mind for these war crime trials.
Send this to McCain’s people.
So the die is cast. And then there were two. Now that the Democrats have “finally” decided on a candidate the real work can begin. This is probably the most boring election we have had in years, at least that I remember.
But the lines could not be any more clearly drawn and the differences any more acute. On the one hand we have a Vietnam veteran who is more a moderate than a conservative. On the other we have a virtual unknown Illinois senator who is about as liberal as they come.
If John McCain is elected, we will have a seasoned politician who will be strong on defense, strong against terrorism abroad, may be weak on immigration, may be weak on appointing constructionist justices to the bench and possible weak on conservative social issues.
If Barak Obama is elected, we will see the economy spiral toward full-fledged recession. I know that because he has promised to raise taxes. Historically that has never worked in growing the economy. Carter tried it and it was a failure. Everyone doubted Reagan when he said he would turn it around by lowering taxes and by gum it worked. Obama will also be weak on defense and terrorism. He has said he will sit down with talks with Hamas and Iran. That will only embolden the enemy and their allies.
Historically, English Prime Minister Chamberlain met with Adolf Hitler prior to World War II offer to settle issues thru discussion. It only emboldened Hitler and 50 million people died in that 6 year war.
One of these two men will be the next President of the United States. One we can live with and the other will be the worst thing in modern American history. I can live with and not love John McCain. I will and millions of other Americans will watch our great country spiral out of control if Obama becomes President.
If we need experience in this time, only McCain has it. Obama is the candidate of change, but is not experienced nor tested. We cannot afford ineptness.
Not yet, its the American voters and our MSM press that are making these very choices.
A new study says that the whole nation is almost in agreement that Obama is getting sweetheart coverage from the Media. Folks are not angry yet, and frankly, I don't know when they will get angry. But, I know in my circle of friends, several "Liberals" are for the first time waking up to the fact that something is terribly wrong.
This last weekend when Neil Cavouto was admonishing a Hillary supporter to get back on the reservation, it was breath taking. But, she held her ground. Folks heard what Hillary had to say about Obama being dangerously naieve and not ready to be president, and even now that she has taken it all back and said, essentially that she was just exaggerating, folks already got it.
Boring is not the word I would have selected. Upsetting, Frightening, Sickening come to mind, but bored, this election has been a hoot!
Yes, McCain is a nightmare right out of central casting. The Dems selected him because they couldn't stomach their own choices, but the Republicans can generally work with the guy. The more important elections are the ones for Congress and frankly we need to wake up and hit the trenches on winning back at least one branch of Congress as difficult as that may be.
In yet more anecdotal evidence, I am finding the same thing here in NJ. While not citing the liberal news coverage of Hussein, the Democrats I know, and this being NJ, most of whom I know are Dems, do not like this man and to a person have told me they will not be voting for him. Of course this can change but so far it seems as if his support is not among anyone over 50 years of age or white.
Of course those who would perpetrate War “crimes” who would be held accountable are only US citizens, never the madmen who behead, raped children and murdered infants who have muslim after their names. THEY are much too kindred spirits for B. HUSSEIN obama to prosecute.

And what would McCain’s people do with it? Will McCain attack a fellow Senator? The one public loyalty that I’ve seen McCain keep is his loyalty, backing and support for fellow Senators. McCain defended John Kerry and attacked the Swiftboat Vets among other examples.
Isn’t it a war crime to engage in combat while not wearing a uniform. What about all those insurgents hiding among the people? That’s one reason why so many innocents get caught up in it.
Obama is hijacking the Nuremberg tribunal script to selectively prosecute certain sectors of the antiterror militaries and support the bureaucrates who do nothing.
Darth Grievious comes to “power”
Russian Roulette of a Presidential Election, the stakes are incredibly high, higher then anytime since 2000.
Kerry was a Ubber Liberal, Obamao makes Kerry seem like Jesse Helms.
His Global Poverty Tax contains appeals to the UN Millenium Declaration, which includes the International Criminal Court and Kyoto and the UN Convention on Small Arms Trafficking.
Not even Ubber Lib Kerry was that Commie, and he negotiated with Commies in Paris.
ask Mr. Obama exactly who he has in mind for these war crime trials.
Osama Bin-laden has been under indictment since 1998, so they’ll have a long wait.
It’s easy if you think of Bush and Cheney as “War Criminals”.
