What our Commander in Chief has led us to in Iraq

ABC News ^ | 19, NOvember 2005 | Jeff Head

[Jeff Head]

Regarding Senator John Kerry's comments this morning (November 19, 2005) on Good Morning America's Weekend edition, where he said of President Bush and the War in Iraq, "What we need is a little more commander-in-chief, and a little less campaigner-in-chief,”...let's see, Mr. Kerry, President Bush took us to war in Iraq as the Commander in Chief. In the midst of that war, he defeated you in a presidential election where this very issue was the principle part of the deabte...and he defeated you with the largest voter turnout in the history of this country, by a clear majority. In that time and since, our military and diplomats, under his command and leadership, have:

1. Completed the fastest, most effective military advance in military history.
2. Defeated the 4th or 5th largest military in the world in quick fashion.
3. Freed 30 million people from abject tyranny.
4. Deposed one of the most ruthless tyrants of the last fifty years, along with his Ba'athist party.
5. Destroyed all attempts by the remaining Ba'athists and their terrorist allies to regain the upper hand, killing the tyrant's two sons and capturing him in the process.
6. Secured the vast majority of the nation and handed sovereignty back to the Iraqi people on schedule.
7. Held the 2nd largest, freest vote in Iraqi history to vote on their own interim government, in the face of and despite terrorist attempts to thwart and disrupt that process.
8. Had the interim Iraqi government develop and introduce a republican constitution on schedule, in the face of and despite terrorist attempts to thwart and disrupt that process.
9. Held the largest free vote in Iraqi history to approve the constitution that the interim government proposed, with even the Sunni minority now participating in that vote, in the face of and despite terrorist attempts to thwart and disrupt that process.
10. Assisted the Iraqis themselves in putting the former tyrant on trial for his crimes.
11. Are preparing for what will undoubtedly be the new largest vote in Iraqi history to elect their own government under their new constitution, again, in the face of and despite terrorist attempts to thwart and disrupt that process.
12. Trained an Iraqi military that is now actively taking major support and lead roles in fighting for their own free nation against their terrorist enemies, losing many more of their own lives, and spilling more of their own blood in that process than our own soldiers.

No, Mr. Kerry, your lame attempts to paint this historical mission and tremendous victory in negative terms and throw that negativity on the very leader who had the foresight and the commitment, in the face of abject corrupt opposition abroad and here at home, do not "carry" (or should that be "Kerry") any weight of moral certitude whatsoever. These attempts by yourself and others to try and use your political position to influence us to snatch defeat out of the jaws of victory and, "cut and run", are nothing Moore than odorous political gas passing in the wind.

"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious.

But it cannot survive treason from within.



An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known, and he carries his banners openly.

But the traitor moves among those within the gates freely,
his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys,
heard in the very hall of government itself.

For the traitor appears no traitor.

He speaks in the accents familiar to his victims,
and he wears their face and their garments,
and he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in hearts of men.



He rots the soul of a nation.

He works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of a city.

He infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist.

A Murderer Is Less To Be Feared."

Cicero, 42 B.C.

Phil, that is a wonderful job of graphically portraying Jeff Head's words about GWB's terror fighting successes. It's going up on the wall next to my desk. Thank you.

That image says it all.

...and they want to do it, not because they have any desire to safeguard this nation...or protect the troops...or do what's best for this nation's security and interest. They want to do this our of their own political ambitions, power and greed.

They are the enemy within in every sense of the word IMHO, and their actions are aiding and abetting an enemy who themselves have indicated in word and deed that they are sworn to kill and destroy all we stand for, value, and hold dear.

[Jeff Head]

Thanks you! And thanks for the link to that site and all they do to support our forces and their mission.

Please forward this message on to them and point to this thread on FR so the word regarding our support can be spread as well.

The more our people at home and abroad understand the level of support they have...the better.

[Jeff Head]

Thanks...sorry for the miscomm. I was responding to what ABC reported regarding Kerry's statements. I probably should have linked to my own site and the message there.

[Jeff Head]

Thanks Phil...though I have a few difference with the Bush administration, overall their actions in the war on terror in general, and specifically in Iraq are not among them.

...and, whatever differences I may have (on campagin finance reform, health care benefits, and particularly immigration, etc.), pale in comparison to what we would face and experience in the wake of a Gore or Kerry presidency overall as well as those specific issues. Either of those individuals, or anyone associated with them or their constituency, would be an abject disaster in those areas as well as all others.

GREAT collage of modern pictures to go with those time worn and true words. Thank you!

[LucyJo]

Absolutely priceless post - thank you.

[Lady Jag]

Oh, God, up till now, it was beyond imagining that she could be any more hideous.

[Dawgreg]

I totally agree keats5! I don't think he realizes that the American people WANT him to come out swinging (so to speak), STAND UP to his critics and lay things out as they really are........I just don't think he get's it......yet.

[Dawgreg]

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You, Jeff.

Looks like some serious inbreeding, complicated by late-stage syphilis.

[Jeff Head]

You are very welcome...I was just so upset over the things Kerry was saying yesterday.

Thanks for putting it into perspective Jeff. I hope you won't mind if I steal your work for a few letters of my own.

[Lady Jag]

You naughty, naughty girl, Lady Jag, LOL! We all remember, don't we?

Hey, I report, you decide!

Is it me . . . or she?
