BBC: "al-Qaeda Would Back McCain"

What idiots. From the BBC: (h/t Weasel Zippers)

Islamic terrorists want war. They want suffering - among others and their own people alike.

They would surely surmise that McCain will give them what they want. Bin Laden himself intervened with what many thought was the effect of keeping President Bush in power in 2004 with that weird tape just before the poll.

I think al-Qaeda would back McCain - that is not an argument for or against America backing him, but it seems to me that the vague assumption that the terrorists would back a lefty is lazy thinking..

The only lazy thinking is this idiocy. al-Qaeda wants total domination, they want their version of Islam all across the globe, and they found that having a Republican in office like Bush bit them on the ass….and hard. They are a shadow of their former self, those glory years being the 90’s when it just so happened a Democrat was in office.

But now, somehow, this bozo believes al-Qaeda wants an enemy that fights back rather then capitulate.

You just can’t make this stuff up….I mean really.

And you just know a post about idiots couldn’t be complete without a Hollywood idiot:

Sharon Stone believes the Sept. 11 attacks should not have been used as a pretext for the United States to launch wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, according to her comments published Monday in a pan-Arab newspaper.

In her interview with Al Hayat, the actress also bemoaned what she called Americans’ decision to ignore the deaths of so many Iraqis.

“I feel at great pain when the spotlight is on the death of 4,000 American soldiers, while 600,000 Iraqi deaths are ignored,” she said. “War is not a movie, it is a tragedy of dead bodies, victims, the disabled, orphans, widows and the displaced.”

John McCain opposed protecting our borders and voted against barring gang members and terrorists from entering this country. He also giggles and talks to himself and on national TV when he knew the cameras were on him. He looks like he is about to have a breakdown.

Well, while given their biases,the BBC is in touch with Al Quaeda sensibilities, this is just nonsense. Hussein Obama wants to surrender in Iraq and cease monitoring terrorist communications. Clearly the terrorists would prefer Hussein Obama, a man married to a woman who shares their hatred and contempt for America. A man who counts terrorists’ lawyers as important contributors and supporters.

Did you know that McCain has also voted against more agents and assets on the border everytime? Forget the wal and the amnesty bill.

Did you also know that he has major funding from the owner of Univision? Or that he has advocates of Reconquista working in behalf of his campaign? To say he is any better than Hillery or Obama is like discussing whether its better to slice your wrist or just go straight for the jugular—you bleed out either way.

My brother is an ICE agent and resident of AZ (and very conservative). Mention being for McCain in his house and he’ll likely pistol-whip you. That is his level of disgust for the man. A disgust shared by the majority of his rank and file colleagues.

In the end, though, I will pull the lever for him. At least he might kill a few more of the jihadis before they get here. My brother will not even discuss voting for him. He’ll probably write Tancredo in again like he did in ‘04.

When it comes to the border, McCain is bought and paid for by Mexico.

In the end McCain will fart away scarce military resources on sideshows. There are hotspots coming up all over the world right now, very few of which are of any strategic importance to us. An examination of his record in government will reveal he has no real vision of how to fight terrorism, where even to lead the country nor how to prioritize. (The only pattern that does emerge is of a narcissitic, crotchety coot masquerading as a serious leader.) The advantage of having someone who's clearly a rookie is that everyone knows he is and no one's embracing false hope. With McCain RINO's and other pseudo-cons can continue to operate under the delusion that because he's got an R after his name, he knows the duties of the Commander-in-Chief.

You’re probably right.
