BUSH 7, TERRORISTS 0
September 10, 2008


Morose that there hasn't been another terrorist attack on American soil for seven long years, liberals were ecstatic when Hurricane Gustav was headed toward New Orleans during the Republican National Convention last week. The networks gave the hurricane plenty of breaking-news coverage -- but unfortunately it was Hurricane Katrina from 2005 they were covering.

On Keith Olbermann's Aug. 29 show on MSNBC, Michael Moore said the possibility of a Category 3 hurricane hitting the United States "is proof that there is a God in heaven." Olbermann responded: "A supremely good point."

Actually, Olbermann said that a few minutes later to some other idiotic point Moore had made, but that's how Moore would have edited the interview for one of his "documentaries," so I will, too. I would only add that Michael Moore's morbid obesity is proof that there is a Buddha.

Hurricane Gustav came and went without a hitch. What a difference a Republican governor makes!

As many have pointed out, the reason elected officials tend to neglect infrastructure project issues, like reinforcing levees in New Orleans and bridges in Minneapolis, is that there's no glory when a bridge doesn't collapse. There are no round-the-clock news specials when the levees hold. You can't even name an overpass retrofitting project after yourself -- it just looks too silly. But everyone's taxes go up to pay for the reinforcements.

Preventing another terrorist attack is like that. There is no media coverage when another 9/11 doesn't happen. We can thank God that President George Bush didn't care about doing the safe thing for himself; he cared about keeping Americans safe. And he has, for seven years.

If Bush's only concern were about his approval ratings, like a certain impeached president I could name, he would not have fought for the Patriot Act and the war in Iraq. He would not have resisted the howling ninnies demanding that we withdraw from Iraq, year after year. By liberals' own standard, Bush's war on terrorism has been a smashing, unimaginable success.

A year after the 9/11 attack, The New York Times' Frank Rich was carping about Bush's national security plans, saying we could judge Bush's war on terror by whether there was a major al-Qaida attack in 2003, which -- according to Rich -- would have been on al-Qaida's normal schedule.

In my visits to Europe Germany and Italy weren’t perfect in the train scheduling department but those wily clock and watch makers the Swiss were.

Here's one of the reasons that I excerpt Coulter's columns every time I post them. This is on her sidebar, under "QUOTATIONS FROM CHAIRMAN ANN"

September 9, 2008, 2:23 AM

Q: How many community organizers does it take to screw in a light bulb? -

A: Nine. One to screw in the light bulb and eight to organize the busloads of protestors to the nuclear plant that powers it.

She always has interesting information on her Chairman sidebar.

Bush ... so many good qualities and he’s a man of good character and integrity.

Screwed the pooch on immigration and energy. So/So on the economy. OK on taxes.

But, whatever. We are still here. Good chance we might not still be if Kerry or Gore had won the WH.

and if the guy could speak, we would be
carving his face into Mt. Rushmore.
Unfortunately, George,
communication is part of the job

Yes, I believe he will be vindicated, too.

[Marysecretary]

Maybe YOU should run next time. I’m sure YOU would be the most perfect president we ever had...NOT.

[Syncro]

Nope, it was just before "Musso" and his fellow fascists took over.

It was a good PR move, it's pretty much accepted as fact unless research is done.

Politics hasn't changed much.

[RonDog]

...George Bush is Gary Cooper in the classic western "High Noon."

The sheriff is about to leave office when a marauding gang is coming to town. He could leave, but he waits to face the killers as all his friends and all the townspeople, who supported him during his years of keeping them safe, slowly abandon him.

In the end, he walks alone to meet the killers, because someone has to. - Ann Coulter

That would be, from www.teachwithmovies.org:

[Syncro]

Doing good, how about you and the family?

Ya should have come to the picnic last weekend in Fresno, it was a good time.

[Kenny Bunk]

Maybe YOU should run next time. I’m sure YOU would be the most perfect president we ever had...NOT.

Steady, Mary. He is a good man, but not ready for canonization. See you at the polls How about a write in?

Thats "K E N etc.

Coulter was pretty much speaking about that attitude when she wrote this:

As Bush has said, we have to be right 100 percent of the time, the terrorists only have to be right one time. Bush has been right 100 percent of the time for seven years -- so much so that Americans have completely forgotten about the threat of Islamic terrorism.

Kinda like yea, he didn't do too bad, we're still here.

It is nice though that people in this Great Country can take it for granite that we will be safe. It sure takes a lot of work though.

Bush with a lot of help pulled it off pretty good.

[RonDog]

Also from www.anncoulter.com:

...Name one other person in Washington who would be willing to stand alone if he had to, because someone had to.

OK, there is one, but she's not in Washington yet.

Appropriately, at the end of "High Noon," Cooper is surrounded by the last two highwaymen when, suddenly, his wife (Grace Kelly) appears out of nowhere and blows away one of the killers!

The aging sheriff is saved by a beautiful, gun-toting woman. - Ann Coulter

That would be our "Thrilla from Wasilla" (suggested by FReeper BunnySlippers):

President Bush is a great man, and we know he is because we know he doesn’t care if he is vindicated on earth by other humans, his view is an eternal one.

[RWB Patriot]

As Truman said “Do your duty and history will do you justice.”

..when it comes to an ann coulter thread, rules is rules

[alloysteel]

Gary Cooper and Grace Kelly, and the allusion to “High Noon”.

What a beautiful comparison.

[allmendream]

You got it. Fascism had something to offer the tepid Italians, it made the trains run on time. ;)

In Germany the trains ALWAYS run on time. They are German.

[MovementConservative]

Ann Coulter? Isn’t she the one who was complaining loudly about the selection of John Roberts to the Supreme Court?
