It's Finally Happened
Washington has totally lost its collective mind and is drowning in a sea of make believe that transcends common sense and even political correctness.
I'm going back to Iraq later on in the year, and I can't wait to see what the young men and women in the military think about fighting the "Overseas Contingency Operation."
They actually thought they were fighting the War on Terror, but their new Commander in Chief and the bunch of politically correct, pantywaist loonies who serve under him are afraid of offending Osama bin Laden or some other scum-sucking, head-decapitating terrorist murderers, so they changed horses in mid stream.
The War on Terror is now the Overseas Contingency Operation, terrorism is now referred to as "man caused disasters" and now the White House has decided that they would no longer call the Islamic fanatics -who want to destroy our way of life- "enemy combatants," but so far the Obama administration hasn't thought of anything less offensive. May I suggest "misguided well-meaning foreign citizens"? That sounds like something the White House can run with.
If it wasn't so dangerous it would be funny. Do these people actually think that by calling something by a kinder gentler name they can make it less dangerous? This is downright stupid. Yes, I said it. It's stupid.
It's like saying, "Mr. bin Laden, we're sorry for calling you all those terrible names. We're really sorry, and if we'll stop using those awful descriptions, will you just leave us alone? Can't we all just put some flowers in our hair and live in peace? Besides it was all that awful George W. Bush's idea."
Well Mr. Obama, I might have missed it but I haven't heard you mention 9/11 once, and just in case you've forgotten these noble enemy comba… sorry, "foreign mischief-making citizens", -or whatever you end up calling them- of yours murdered over 3000 of our citizens in three different locations on American soil and your milksop definitions of these pus ball killers is just not good enough for me.
I have some suggestions for your vocabulary:
Rattlesnake - triangle-headed surface crawler
Black Widow Spider - red dotted black circle
Shark - fish with a toothy smile
Grizzly Bear - big cuddly fuzzball
Dynamite - stringed red stick
Ted Bundy - homo sapien with a slight attitude
Jeffrey Dahmer - peculiarly-appetited loner
The media in this country have their heads so far up the collective posteriors of the Obama Administration that all they can do is sit back and say, "Oh isn't he wonderful? Isn't he brilliant? He has compassion and cares about everybody's feelings!"
Folks, please don't let this bunch of new age liberal fanatics pull the wool over your eyes.
Regardless of what the White House says, we are still fighting the War on Terror. If you don't believe it, ask some of the young heroes who patrol the roads of Iraq everyday at the risk of having their Humvees blown to kingdom come by a roadside bomb, not put there by a soldier but by a citizen terrorist and that does not compute into enemy combatant, "peace-depriving individual" or any other ridiculous politically correct term they can come up with, no matter how you cut it.
The more Obama tries to placate these people, the weaker they will perceive us to be and you know what's sad? It will be the truth.
I remember watching a TV show a few years ago when there was a war going on between Israel and their Arab neighbors. I remember the rapper, Vanilla Ice, walking to the microphone, raising his fist in the air and saying, "Peace in the Middle East!"
I think that's a wonderful idea, Mr. Ice. How about you go over there and fix it for us. I'm sure you and Sean Penn could make all of the problems in the Middle East just go away.
These idealistic platitudes may make the people who say it feel good about themselves, but it does absolutely nothing to solve the situation.
The only thing to be accomplished by soft-pedaling the rhetoric will be to give our blood enemies a good laugh.
I can't help but wonder how the coverage of the trade towers bombing would be reported today, would it be something like…?
"Today misguided well-meaning foreign citizens from the Overseas Contingency Operation inflicted a Man Caused Disaster at the World Trade Center depriving some three thousand people -who probably shouldn't have been there anyway- of their livingness, and besides, we're sure they had a good excuse for doing it."
Film at eleven.
What do you think?
Pray for our troops
God Bless America

Right on Charlie!
Tell em, Charlie!
“Washington has totally lost its collective mind and is drowning in a sea of make believe that transcends common sense and even political correctness.”
See my tagline. (That I shameless stole from another Freeper - Aesop he thought?)
Now that is some language I can get my head around :-D.
God bless our troops and protect them!
Lets see if I understand the equation
Terrorism = Man Caused Disaster
Election of Obama in 2008 = Man Caused Disaster
Therefore there is a strong possibility that the
Election of Obama in 2008 = Terrorism
Have I got that about right?
Charlie don’t pull no punches!
The premise that we try to put lipstick and perfume on pigs to “feel” better will get us killed.
Dopey-Changey will see to that.
I sat and listened to a RINO (Arnold), two gun-grabbing, faux global warming, Left maggots (Feinstein and Boxer) and watched Lee and Dellums...at the OPD funeral...
These Liberals have no idea, and I think that being around 20,000 cops made them nervous.
You know...cops = paid armed militia.
BTTT
POTUS is now TOTUS.

PRESIDENT AUTHORIZES TWO NEW MEDALS (2003)

This complete “administration is using George Orwells “1984” as their playbook and the whole pack should be driven out of Office.
BTT!
Well said and spot-on, Mr. Daniels.
We called it OIF [Operation Iraqi Freedom] because we wanted Iraq to have Freedom.
Now we call it OCO because he'd like them to have Contingencies.
The 'crats never did like freedom. Always been the slave party.....and still are.
Great rant don’tchaknow. And so accurate>
