Is the United States Worthy of Poland’s Confidence? The November election will supply the answer

"Missile Offense" in today's Wall Street Journal (September 10, A14) reports that Poland, at considerable risk to its own safety, has agreed to the installation of ten American interceptor missiles whose purpose is to shoot down Iranian weapons of mass destruction. Vladimir Putin's new Russian Empire has fabricated a complaint that these missiles somehow threaten Russia, even though they are totally defensive and cannot even stop more than a fraction of Russia's still formidable strategic nuclear arsenal. The Poles have nonetheless stuck to their decision, and it is now up to us to show whether we are worthy of their confidence. The surest way for Americans to show that the two Eagles of Liberty still stand for the same values and principles is to elect John McCain, who will stand with Poland the way Poland is prepared to stand with us.

...Polish leaders finally struck the missile deal, after months of national debate, in the wake of Russia's invasion of Georgia. The agreement is largely symbolic, since the 10 interceptors couldn't possibly stop a Russian attack and are really aimed at Iran. But the symbolism is still useful as a message to Moscow that its Georgian imperialism won't cower everyone in Eastern Europe. It is also an expression of Poland's confidence in America as an ally.

The article adds that Ellen Tauscher (D-CA), John Murtha (D-PA), and Barack Obama (D-IL) spokeswoman Wendy Morigi have been doing everything possible to undermine the missile defense agreement with Poland. The term "cowardice" easily comes to mind, because Poland is right next to the Russian Bear and its wrath while the United States is thousands of miles away. (Murtha once served in the Armed Forces and therefore cannot be accused of physical cowardice, but his subsequent Congressional career has certainly been one of moral cowardice as well as politically-correct efforts to scapegoat service members as war criminals. As for Tauscher and Obama, though, we think "yellow" is the color that best suits them, and it is up to them how they want to wear it.) Obama's willingness to undercut missile defenses in Poland also says a lot about his administration will really stand by other democratic allies like Israel, no matter how much lip service he and his shills like Wexler (D-FL) give to Israel's security.

It would be in Poland’s best interest to refuse the missile agreement themselves the day after the election if Obama is elected.

And to buy a large supply of Russian flags; they will need them. Then again, so might we by the time Obama is done with us.

Poland can be bought and sold every weekend.

The question is: Is poland worthy?

If Obama wins, Poland is so screwed.

The three Dims you named at the beginning of your statement are in the dictionary under “idiot.”

Murtha having served in the armed forces of America does not necessarily mean he was valiant. It means he did his job and drew a paycheck.

I did that as a military wife, mom, widow and grandmother, and I’d take his place any day and show him what courage to serve America really means.

Obama is a wuss. He caves in to anyone that tells him he’s doing things the wrong way. He has no yardstick to measure that by, since he’s been lying forever. A rule of thumb for Muslims: A man MUST be dishonest. (From a Muslims lips to my ears!)

Obama is 50% white, 46.5% Arab, and 6.5% black. Can someone explain to me how he fit the profile to qualify for Affirmative Action to get into Harvard?

I keep praying for Georgia and for Poland. My own opinion is that Russia (Putin) made his move on Georgia, thinking Obama had the election in the bag and that he would do nothing to stop Russia. And then McCain brings in Palin. That has changed the ball game, and Russia is trying to find an easy way out.

We may not need McCain, but we DARN sure need Palin!
