John McCain has already traveled to Iraq several times and the Mainstream News Media has hardly noticed. Then Barack Obama decides to go to Iraq for the very first time and the three Major Networks decide to send their News Anchors along with an army of soundmen and cameramen so they can drool over his every word as Obama illegally commits to send more troops to Afghanistan and tries to take credit for everything the Bush Administration has been doing to win in Iraq while Barry was waving the white flag and saying our military wasn’t able to win.

Do I need to remind these media types that Obama, when he bothered to vote at all, voted against funding the troops as well as voting against everything that he is now trying to take credit for, like the Surge. Nothing attracts political glory seekers like success.

And don’t think I haven’t noticed that Obama just can’t seem to bring himself to give any credit at all to his own country and the U.S. Military for the successes in Iraq. Instead, he gives all the credit to the Iraqi Government and al Sadre’s decision to stop fighting. Well Barry, why do you think the Iraqi Government has been successful and al Sadre decided to stop fighting, hmmmmm?

We all know what they’re doing. They want to get lots of footage of Obama acting presidential so that they can use the footage in campaign ads in an effort to overcome his lack of experience. They want to give people the impression that he is a real diplomat. The truth is, ol Barry chairs a Senate Committee on Afghanistan and has never even had a meeting. That shouldn’t surprise anyone. After all, he only had 143 days in the Senate before he started running for president. Before that, name one thing he has done that would qualify him to be president.

Someone needs to remind Barry and the Network News Anchors that he isn’t president yet and shouldn’t be committing the U.S to sending more troops into Afghanistan. Barry also need to be reminded that Afghanistan is a NATO operation and there aren’t more troops there because NATO has decided not to send them. If Barry had been chairing his committee instead of campaigning, he may have known that. Barry, your inexperience is showing again.

At the same time all of this Obama bootlicking is going on John McCain steps off of an plane in New Hampshire today and there is one local reporter and one cameraman there to cover his arrival. Now try to convince me that the Mainstream News Media isn’t in the tank for Obama? Is there any doubt?

It seems that whenever Hillary (or, if you prefer, Billary) says something outrageous it isn’t long before her supporters will jump to her defense by saying, "She had to say that to satisfy her base." Well there is one group that Hillary doesn’t have to pander to. They love her just the way she is. They’re the Islamic Terrorists.

.

Aaron Klein, the Jerusalem bureau chief for WorldNetDaily, recently published a book and devoted a part of it to finding out which American politicians the terrorists liked best. He found out that the overwhelming favorite of the terrorists was, you guessed it, the Democrats in general, and Hillary Clinton in particular. Klein said, "The terrorists understand very well the difference between the Democrats and the Republicans, and they see that a lot of Democratic presidential candidates are competing with each other on who would withdraw from Iraq first, who would create dialogue with Iran, dialogue with Syria, cease fires with some of the insurgent leaders."

.

According to Klein, the terrorist leaders understand that it is in their best interests for Democrats to gain the political upper hand in the United States. That’s why all of bin Ladin’s recent videos basically regurgitate Democrat talking points. Do you really think that bin Ladin give a rat’s rear end about uninsured Americans? But he was sure to mention them in his latest tape. Listen to Ahmadinejad’s speeches. He tends to repeat points that have been written by the staff at the DNC.

.

Klein talked to Hamas leader Ahmed Yousuf and he says that Yousuf has nothing but praise for Mrs. Clinton. Klein said, "He believes that the Palestinian ticket to victory is Hillary Clinton and he’s just one of literally dozens of senior terrorist leaders that I talked to..." Klein says that the consensus among the terrorists is that a Clinton victory in 2008 would open the door for them to impose Islam and Sharia Law onto the rest of the world. That includes the United States, folks.

.

Klein went on, "These terrorists.... are looking to get America out of the Middle East and to destroy Israel. But these are just means to an end. They’re ultimately looking to spread their brand of Islam in the Middle East and Europe, and ultimately to the United States of America. So they’re going to support any political party or candidate that would try to push through their short term goal." The terrorists ..."apparently believe that Hillary Clinton, in particular, is that candidate."

Well, look at the bright side. Any terrorist who enters New York illegally won’t have to travel by cab. Hillary will see to it that they have driver’s licenses.

Every Democrat candidate has come up with his own version of HillaryCare. For those of you who are interested in HillaryCare and other Social Democrat Health Care plans, here's something from a Canadian on their socialized medical care plan. I have added my own comments after each point. I also did not correct any typos in the original.

.
 Subject: Health Care

.

. This was sent from Canada to a friend in the States.

.

 I  saw on the news up here in Canada where Hillary Clinton introduced her new health care plan. Something similar to what we have in Canada. I also heard that Michael Moore was raving about the health care up here in Canada in his latest movie. As your friend and someone who lives with the Canada health care plan I thought I would give you some facts about this great medical plan that we have in Canada.

.
First of all: 

.
 1) The health care plan in Canada is not free. We pay a premium every month of $96 for Shirley and I to be covered. Sounds great eh. What they don't tell you is how much we pay in taxes to keep the health care system afloat. I am personally in the 55% tax bracket. Yes 55% of my earnings go to taxes. A large portion of that and I am not sure of the exact amount goes directly to health care our #1 expense.

.
 Most Canadians pay out several hundred dollars a month in healthcare premiums. Low income families are exempt. According to the Canadian government that average tax burden in Canada is 40%. In the U.S. it averages just under 33%.

.

 2) I would not classify what we have as health care plan, it is more like a health diagnosis system. You can get into to see a doctor quick enough so he can tell you "yes indeed you are sick or you need an operation" but now the challenge becomes getting treated or operated on. We have waiting lists out the ying yang some as much as 2 years down the road.

.

The long waiting periods for care is why many Canadians opt to come to the United States and pay for their care. Of course this option is only open to the higher income groups. I like what Rudy Giuliani said yesterday. "If Hillary's health care plan gets implemented, where are the Canadians going to go for their heath care?" 

.

3) Rather than fix what is wrong with you the usual tactic in Canada is to prescribe drugs. Have a pain here is a drug to take- not what is causing the pain and why. No time for checking you out because it is more important to move as many patients thru as possible each hour for Government re-imbursement

.
 4) Many Canadians do not have a family Doctor.

.

There is a severe shortage of doctors in Canada. They have all gone to places where they can actually make some money practicing medicine. The few who are left aren't taking on any new patients. According to the Canadian Medical Association 14% of Canada's population does not have a family doctor.

.

5) Don't require emergency treatment as you may wait for hours in the emergency room waiting for treatment.

.

Well, that can even be the case in the United States. You only go to the head of the line if you're about to die. But the wait times in Canadian emergency rooms are legendary, to say the least.

.

6) Shirley's dad cut his hand on a power saw a few weeks back and it required that his hand be put in a splint - to our surprise we had to pay $125. for a splint because it is not covered under health care plus we have to pay $60. for each visit for him to check it out each week.

If you’ve ever entertained any doubts that the Democrats in Washington are really invested in the defeat of the United States in the Middle East, there can no longer be any doubt.

.

You see, indications are that things are going very well in Iraq right now. And the Democrats can’t allow that to happen. They can see their hopes in 2008 going down the tubes if the United States military were to actually win over there. After all, they’ve already declared that the war is lost and that U.S. soldiers are just running around over there bombing villages and murdering civilians. They’ve called General Petraeus a liar when he said that we’re winning. So they can’t allow him to be right.

.

Well, fearing an eminent victory in Iraq, the Democrats have been feeling pressure coming from their Left Wing base to get more serious about opposing the Bush Administration’s efforts to win the war. To that end, Nancy Pelosi is presenting a resolution to the House condemning Turkey for killing Armenians during World War I, calling it genocide. The Resolution has already passed the House Foreign Affairs Committee on Wednesday.

.

Turkey has always denied that any genocide of Armenians took place. They say that both Turks and Armenians died as the Ottoman Empire collapsed at the end of World War I and they are very sensitive to suggestions that there was any wrongdoing on their part.

.

Whether it happened or not is up for debate. But, even if it happened, that was almost a hundred years ago. So what possible purpose could such a resolution serve today? Especially given the fact that the U. S Congress has already passed two resolutions since that time that said the same thing.

.

Simple folks. Turkey is a critical ally in the War on Terrorists. They allow flyovers of U.S. military aircraft as well as allowing us to use their country as a staging area for men and supplies being deployed in Iraq and Afghanistan. So the Democrat strategy is to alienate this important ally in the war in the hope that it will hinder our efforts to win victory in Iraq and Afghanistan. Think about that, folks. The Democrats are actively trying to sever the supply lines to our troops in their effort to cause them to lose the war. I find that unbelievable. In fact, it's downright treasonous.

.

Passing this resolution will be considered a gross insult by the Turks. In fact, the Turks have already recalled their Ambassador. Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan commented last Friday that U.S. Turkish relations are endangered because of this resolution. He used a Turkish idiom to describe how bad relations are by saying, "Where the rope is worn thin, may it break off."

.

It’s hard to believe that we could have a political party in the United States that is so desirous of seeing their country defeated in a time of war that they are purposely trying to alienate our allies. This is the same party that has been bashing Bush for years claiming that he has alienated the rest of the world from us. This is the same party who seems to be obsessed with what other countries think of us. This is the same party who seems to feel that we must get the permission of other countries before we can defend ourselves. Yet this same party is willing to insult our allies if it serves their political ambitions. That is almost beyond belief.

.

I say again. If you had any doubts that the Democrats were so invested in our defeat that they are actively working to undermine our efforts to win the victory, there can be no doubt now.

The latest bit of brain flatulence to exit Hillary’s noggin is the idea that you and I, through the Federal Government, should give every baby born in America $5,000. She says that the money could then be invested and grow so that when the child grows up they can use that money as a down payment on their first house, college tuition, etc., etc.

. 

Well here’s the question that I’d just love to hear the media types ask Mrs. Bill Clinton. Are you people at Fox listening? When George Bush proposed allowing people to take some of THEIR OWN MONEY they are currently being forced to throw into that black hole called the Social Security Fund and invest it so that it can grow and they can get MORE MONEY when they retire Her Thighness had a fit. She said that it was a stupid idea to allow people to invest their Social Security money into the private sector. What it the Stock Market fell? What if they didn’t invest it properly. And, God forbid, Wall Street types might actually make some money from the fees involved.

.

Well, if investing money in the private sector was such a bad idea when Bush proposed it, why does Billery think it’s such a good idea when SHE proposes it, hmmmmm?

Nobody with an ounce of working grey matter can deny that the Democrats are so completely invested in the defeat of the U.S. military in Iraq that anything good that happens in the war on terror is bad news for them. That’s why they tried their best to discredit General Petraeus by calling him a liar before they even knew what he was going to say. By the way. I’m still waiting for the evidence they had that showed that what Petraeus said was untrue. They just SAID it wasn’t true and their buddies in the Media loyally regurgitated it as truth.

.

Well, it’s bad enough when they say what they say about the U.S. when they’re here. But what would you think about a Democrat Presidential Candidate who goes over to Syria and bad mouths the United States on SYRIAN TELEVISION?

.

Well, that’s exactly what Democrat Presidential Candidate Dennis Kucinich just did. In every conflict you will find useful idiots who give aid and comfort to the enemy and Dennis Kucinich has chosen to play that role.

.

Kucinich recently went to Syrian to meet with the Syrian President Basher Assad and while he was there he appeared on Syrian television in order to bash his own country for all the Muslim world to see. And remember, he is a Democrat Presidential Candidate. This has to be the first time in U.S. history where a Presidential Candidate has gone to a country that openly seeks our defeat in order to aid their propaganda efforts against us.

. 

What’s even worse, our Justice Department has been sitting on their thumbs doing nothing about it. Friends, it is illegal for anyone but the President or someone who is authorized by the President to negotiate with a foreign government. And Kucinich said that he told Assad that he was going to ask U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon to follow up on the "dire conditions" posed by leftover Israeli cluster bombs in southern Lebanon. He said, "There has to be a commitment to cleaning up these cluster bombs." He failed to mention the rockets that Hezbollah is firing at Israeli citizens every day. He also told his fellow Democrats that Assad was open to his plan for peace in the Middle East. Of course he was open to it. Kucinich’s plan is WE SURRENDER. This guy thinks he already President.

.

Kucinich also praised the Syrian president for giving sanctuary to over a million Saddam loyalists who fled Iraq to escape capture. He went on to tell the Syrians that he refused to visit Iraq because, "I feel the United States in engaging in an illegal occupation...I don’t want to bless that occupation with my presence."

.

Well, Assad illegally got the office of president because of threats passed out by his father’s gangster friends. His father wanted to continue looting the country. Assad openly supports Hamas and Hezbollah. He is the main exporter of Iranian arms into Iraq. And he trains Islamist killers and sends them into Iraq to murderer Iraqi citizens and U.S. servicemen. He has also placed hundreds of Kurds and other dissidents into Syrian prisons to be tortured and killed. But Kucinich – the guy who wants to be your President – just loves the guy!!!

.

Well, as far as I’m concerned, Mr. Kucinich, you don’t need to bless us by coming home. If you hate the United States so much that you are willing to go on television in Syria – a country that openly supports international terrorism – and bad mouth your country before people who are openly trying to kill us, you shouldn’t be allowed to enjoy the benefits of living in this country. Stay in Syria with your pal Assad.

.

Mr. Kucinich, How can you possibly claim to love your country and yet betray everything it stands for? And how can you do that at the same time you’re telling us you’d like to be our President? You sir, are a disgrace!
