As a blogger on another site said “Obama is going to kill a heck of a lot of people”.

Study history, we have seen things like this before.

The truly sad thing is this would not have happened except for the incompetence and cowardice of the GOP.

Unless they are just part of the plan. Remember the GOP leadership went to the same schools, runs in the same circles, and belongs to the same clubs as the DNC. You can not expect them to act like anything else than a dim reflection of the other party.

I observe life, like so many others here. One term comes to mind, that my daughter taught me. I think I see how it came into being.

Black kids have a tough life, no matter how things change. I'm glad I was born white. Many excel, in spite of the challenges they have faced .

White kids have whimps for dads (generalization). When confronted with the strong black male, the white kids are intimidated. The result has been named as "whiggers". They are the youth who achieve that mathematic axom, the "lowest common denominator". We see the results in our modern culture, and especially in the schools.

The black kids want to fit. They are strong. The white kids want to fit They emulate (mimic?) that observed strength!

Government beings all work the same, but it's not about color, as much as the intimidation factor. Everybody just wants to get along!

Welcome to Amerika!

That should be the battle of every Republican candidate for office.

They should shout it every day, every night, every interview, every time they are in the public.

Buut they won’t. They are too afraid of being called :mean spirited” by the msm. Therefore they will, in all probability get their asses handed to them again come November.

You would simply have to come east for the celebration and Mrs. Smooth's delicious turkey!

It would be a most enjoyable occasion and an appropriate one. ;-)

Remember the GOP leadership went to the same schools,

Communism is our nation's most serious threat, and schools are their most important and powerful weapon.

We can survive a nuclear suitcase bomb. Katrina proved that. We will NOT, NOT, NOT, survive if the communists in our K-12 schools (especially), colleges and universities continuing indoctrinating the next generation of voters.

There's little disputing the treason and betrayal of he American Left. But they've had plenty of help:

"Ideological descendants of Marx and Rousseau now lead the Democratic Party and they have turned it into a disloyal opposition to an increasingly accommodating GOP."

Then the Congressman Larry Craig sex scandal broke and the Republican majorities in the House and Senate were lost.

As pointed out by a commentator to the article on the original site, this should be "Mark Foley (R-FL)". I am convinced that this was an engineered leak for maximum political effect similar to GWB's decades-old DUI arrest in the 2000 election. The sheeple-liberal media love these things against the 'hypercritical moral right' and run it into the ground. When it is someone like Kerry getting ordered into Cambodia by Nixon, Christmas 1968, then there is no end of explanations. Ditto with Kerry's post-Vietnam testimony comparing GIs to Gengis Khan, the spinmeisters were omnipresent.

"fight back"

Yes, but if they do it the Demo attack machine/MSM gets into gear, the news cycle starts and the last message we hear is the “hate mongers” from the right calling them “unpatriotic”.

Anyone who believes the MSM is dead is a fool. Their control is less, but far from gone.

The ramifications of the last 8 years are yet to be seen, but it will be bad:

1. Election of the Obamination, reparations, taxes, etal

2. Any president that in the future decides to go to war risks destroying himself and his party unless it will be over in 90 days. He and the enemy both know that.

3. Weakening of the resolve of the American people with serious and dangerous forces at work in the world today such as radical Islamists and adventurous China and Russia.

4. Huge US problems with out of control government spending and $40 trillion in unfunded liabilities in SS and Medicare.

But it is always like this, the threats and problems that should have been seen are ignored, such is the nature of republics.

In the past true leaders have emerged, the people have stepped up and done what it takes to overcome evil. Maybe I am a victim of this anti-American message, but my confidence that we are up to it is just not there.

I don't want to have to see us "water the tree of liberty with the blood of patriots and tyrants"

Neither do I.

I'm not a CW2 advocate. I'm only saying, we aren't going to let the nation fall to a communist revolution, that's what's going on right now, and unless you can conjure up a political solution, there will eventually be a nonpolitical solution.

Me? I'm too old to go bushwhacking, to quote a great American.

Whatever patriotism was stoked within the hearts of Democratic Party leaders by that September Day of Infamy was likely tempered by an unsettling reality: If America stayed united behind George W. Bush and the Republicans during the coming military response to 911, the Democratic Party would be out of power for a long time.


The withering attacks on the Bush Administration took their toll. Bush was slowly becoming a pariah, even within his own political party. His approval ratings, burdened by the vicious attacks on his character and constant attacks on his war policies, sank like a stone.

Sorry, I disagree. Bush himself moved to the left creating a serious schizophrenia in the GOP. Were we conservatives or liberal lite?

With his profligate spending and constant capitulation to the left, he made himself a pariah in the conservative rank and file.

Blaming the media for his loss of political capital is a canard.

>The only thing I detest more than Democrats is Satan himself.<

Where do you think John Murtha(D) got the balls to publically say the Marines at Haditha, “killed innocent civilians in cold blood.” Think that came out of his Democrat wizbag or was he confident that he was speaking for some scummy RINO’s too?

The taste you have in your mouth when the name Murtha(D) is mentioned is the same taste I have when I hear the word Republican mentioned as if they were some kind of f’ing heroes. When the truth is that half of the elected legislators with an R behind their names are RINO’s who vote hand in hand with the Democrats 80% of the time!

When I ask a politician face to face, “Where did the real Republicans go?”, you should see the flexing they go through trying to save face. I have done it in public when there was other voters in the room and almost had to call for an EMT to save the poor bastard from having a stroke. I do know that I made an enemy for life because they hate it when we nail them to the wall for not doing the job we elected them to do. Never has one asked me what I meant. They know exactly what I mean.

I have been in a terrible mood these past few months because of what I have seen happening across America. True patriotic Republicans running for office of the President being shuffled off to the side in favor of this f’king RINO, John McCain(R). Him and Murtha both hate the fools who elected them to office. I hate to think what we are going to see when BO(D) or the RINO, John McCain(R) become our Commander in Chief.

Will every combat mission be reviewed by JAG to see if perhaps they can’t place another Marine under charges? Bush is doing his best to keep the Marines from winning this war too fast for his military/industrial complex supporters. They want to get every dollar that they can before we withdraw the combat troops. RINO, John McCain(R) will attempt to do the same but he’ll have pressure being exerted by his friends, the Dims, to get some more Marines into the civilian court docket. It is clear that general court martials aren’t the way to go. Article 32’s get a lot of media attention because the JAG can drag them out forever and ever but when it comes time to hang the men, the hand selected military jury just won’t do it. Activist civilian judges should do the trick.

***In modern times, things have split so badly along political lines in my family, that one of my brothers (a radical moonbat) no longer speaks to me.***

>So why is so controversial a candidate even in the running to be president?

Because he reflects his Party’s leftist agenda, has unique, prodigious manipulative talents and equally impressive Hollywood attributes.<

The exact same question and answer can be said about the Republican Party’s leftist agenda and RINO John McCain(R)!
