Michael Savage is a moronic embarassment, but he had it right last night. It does my heart good to know that the Democrat party is so out of touch and desperate that this is what they are reduced to embracing as a political issue. And still the American public disagrees with them. Sad, really.

BUSH ON DECK

Here's a newsflash: President Bush Lands Jet on Henry Waxman's Nose

Good heavens, there are WAY too many smiles in those pictures for the Dims. No wonder their heads are exploding!

Hehehe ... the truth scores and burns them to the core.

But most of those folks are happy to be free.

read this ARTICLE by one of them in the Wall Street Journal.

Our free advice to Democrats is that they stop worrying about Mr. Bush's stagecraft and start looking for a candidate of their own in 2004 who could engender the same outpouring of admiration and respect that Mr. Bush met as he made his way around the Lincoln's flight deck.

They will be searching way beyond 2004 for a candidate that will garner the respect President Bush does.

Excellant post, Thanks

Ahhhhh...thank you for providing me the opportunity to present a Clinton 'military' moment.

Col Homes /Clinton..

Bill Clinton's letter to Col. Eugene Holmes, Director of the ROTC program at the University of Arkansas ..3 December 1969.

Copy - 1992 Affidavit by Lt. Col. Holmes:Regarding Bill Clinton's Draft Evasion

Here’s a small Clinton ‘military compilation of various threads on the FR forum

Dems Attack Bush's Use of Aircraft Carrier for Speech

Naaaaaaaaah, the Dem's wouldn't do that.

Presidential visits to Navy ships

President Clinton piped aboard the USS Independence, April 17, 1996.

"On the Senate floor Tuesday, Sen. Robert Byrd (D-W.Va.) questioned "the motives of a desk-bound president who assumes the garb of a warrior for the purposes of a speech."

I guess that nobody remembers when Bill Clinton wanted to have a "photo op" with the Navy at Vietnam where the American flag was to fly lower than the Vietnam flag?

AUGUST 23 2000: American flag dips to Vietnam, China? Naval officers claim Clinton to change regulation to placate totalitarian regimes

AUGUST 25 2000: Navy deniesflag allegations Says Clinton won't changeregulations to placate communists

SEPTEMBER 18 2000: Clinton finally makes it to Nam?

OCTOBER 15 2000: Navy flag-lowering plan confirmed CINCPACFLT officer: 'There was a proposal to change the regulations'

OCTOBER 16 2000: Flag flap follow up

DECEMBER 18 2000: Justice confirms Navy flag flap Islands' top judge corroborates high-level talks to placate communists

DECEMBER 18 2000: Flag-flap vindication

So, Bush has a photo op on an American carrier where he evokes pride in our accomplishments and the Democrats cry fould, yet Clinton attempted to stage a Navy photo op where he diminishes the Navy and makes them subordinate to a dictatorial regime.

Commemorating the 50th anniversary of D-Day aboard the U.S.S. George Washington off the coast of Normandy, France, June 6.

No photo ops there!

[prairiebreeze]

The President honored our military by arriving at the carrier in the manner he did. Peggy Noonan had it right a couple of nights ago, that the President showed his trust in the pilots, crew etc. to allow them to fly him in a jet.

The Dims haven't a clue as to how to go about honoring someone. All they can do is spew. And their spewing is demeaning and demoralizing to our troops. THis is another finely honed skill of Democrats.

Think I may spend some time emailing Dim senators and Reps today pointing out their hypocrisy and their lousy treatment of our excellent military.

I don't see any frowning faces for the way President Bush used them for this photo op!

[prairiebreeze]

Ohhh. Now I need some Kleenex.

A real top gun.

If you have an article about all the trips abroad Clinton took, please post that as well. Thanks.

I know some people might consider this mean-spirited, but I truly think Henry Waxman should not be allowed to appear in public without one of those "elephant man" bags over his head. That snout of his reminds me of a bat, or a pig that got punched out by Mike Tyson.

Do it for the kids. He scares the kids. Hell, he scares me.

[Modernman]

One of the things that struck me about the Bush pictures was the true diversity of our fighting men and women. Liberals talk about 'diversity' all the time, but they're always trying to create it through social engineering. In our military, Americans of all races, sexes and religions can succeed based solely on their abilities. No affimative action here. It must annoy liberals that the most color-blind place in our society is the military.

Michael Savage is a moronic embarassment

Huh?

[WaterDragon]

Americans need to be reminded of the contempt the Democratic party showed our troops in Florida in 2000 -- when they tried to disenfranchise them by disallowing the military ballots.


The Democrats already know the military loathes them.

[Jeff Head]

The dems are just mad because they know how much respect the military and patriotic Americans hold for Bush over Iraqi Freedom. They are mad because Bush had the guts to take the risk in Iraq that none of them would EVER have taken, going against both the UN and Europe ... and emerging so completely victorious and vindicated.

They are mad because he had the guts to make that dangerous carrier arrested landing and the personnel LOVED him for it.

That's what this is about. They know that his actions will garner political support that they can only dream of, and it will come naturally ... while they have to go through all kinds of mechanisms and payoffs to get whatever fleeting support they can garner.

His heart's in the right place, but he is an uninformed blowhard and to the uninitiated, he makes conservatives look boorish.
