Prior to 48% of 2nd largest Air Force Plane procurement project going to a foreign nation, a nation with 6 million Muslims, I would have said yes.
Fear And Loathing In The Hillary Clinton Campaign
*********************From the Blog **************************
I'd call this the last act of a desperate woman. Neither Barack Obama nor Hillary Clinton present themselves as the person most people would want answering the phone at the White House in the middle of the night. In fact, the Democrats have done their best to minimize the threats to the US, especially since it became clear that John McCain -- with his decades of work on military policy -- would be the Republican nominee.
Does anyone remember the line that the "war on terror" was just a bumper sticker?
John McCain could simply clip off the last ten seconds of this ad and run it for the general election -- no matter which Democrat won the nomination. I can't wait for the pushback against Hillary for this ad.
And his having Reconquista's own Juan Herndandez on his staff sure doesn't help matters in the least.
"There's a big difference between giving speeches about national security and giving orders as commander in chief," said the New York senator, surrounded by retired military leaders during an appearance in Waco, Texas. "There's a big difference between delivering a speech at an antiwar rally as a state senator and picking up that phone in the White House at 3 a.m. in the morning to deal with an international crisis."
Well the ‘Rats got one Barry with the infamous mushroom cloud and the little girl with a flower ad when LBJ got his landslide in ‘64, looks like they’re hoping that lightning will strike twice 44 years later with another Barry. LOL
Protect America Act To Be Passed Soon?

Poor lefties. They ride into Congress in 2006 with the glee of having vanquished the big bad ole’ Republicans. They rub their hands in anticipation that two of the bestest lefties they have, now leading their respective Houses, will run from Iraq, roll back all the legislation intended to secure this country, and “drain the swamp.” Remember….their slim majority was suddenly a “mandate.”
But what happened? The Patriot Act is still around and working well. We still have troops in Iraq, and hell, we sent even more in for The Surge. And now the Protect America enhancements to FISA are about to be enacted. But only if Democrats can play a shell game to protect themselves from those poor, sad little lefties: (via Hot Air)
To break an impasse over legislation overhauling the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, House Democratic leaders are considering the option of taking up a Senate-passed FISA bill in stages, congressional sources said today. Under the plan, the House would vote separately on the first title of the bill, which authorizes surveillance activities, and then on the bill’s second title, which grants retroactive legal immunity to telecommunications companies that aided the Bush administration’s warrantless electronic surveillance activities. The two would be recombined, assuming passage of both titles.
In this way, Democratic leaders believe they can give an out to lawmakers opposed to the retroactive immunity provision. Republican leadership sources said their caucus would back such a plan because not only would it give Democratic leaders the out they need, it would provide a political win for the GOP. It remains to be seen if such a move will placate liberal Democrats who adamantly oppose giving in to the Bush administration on the immunity issue.
But at least this time we got to see how Obama feels on the need to listen to our enemies. He actually voted on the Senate version (instead of his usual “present”), and he voted against it.
Tack this on to Pelosi’s failed attempt to have a couple Bushies strung up when they had the audacity….the AUDACITY to fire some political appointees, I mean how dare a politician fire political appointees, and you can pretty much call this Congress, and the “mandate” that brought them in, a failure.
In the eyes of the lefties. Myself, I would call their failures a success for our country.
So Obama has headed a Senate subcommittee for a full year which is responsible for reviewing policy, he fails to convene a single committee meeting, and, as President, he would move aggressively into Afghanistan and Pakistan. And his excuse is that his presidential campaign prevented him from fulfilling his public duties as a Senator?
This POS is absolutely pathetic. This should be a 49 state landslide for McCain.
Are we going to start having to say "The H word" now when referring to the name Hussein? saddam "The H word", former dictator of Iraq or barack "The H word" Obama has big ears?
“Your vote will decide who answers the call,” says a narrator, “whether it’s someone . . . tested and ready to lead in a dangerous world.”
Hillary is your gal if the phone call is about another ‘bimbo eruption’. But if it’s a real national emergency, maybe she’ll go before Congress and cry about ‘how hard it is to be a woman in the presidency.’
