One of the things that struck ME about this convention was ALL these BIG names coming out ALL WEEK LONG denying that there was EVER any kind of a serious Rift among the Democrats,,

THEN we’re supposed to BELIEVE that Saint Hillary was the SOLE engineer of the "healing" of that rift that DIDN’T exist with her Unparralled Graciousness and Unprecedented Statesmanlike call for a "Nomination by Acclamation"..

And NOW,, we’re supposed to believe that the WHOLE Democrat party,, which was NEVER devided in the first place,, is somehow unified as NEVER before??

Happy days are HERE again!!!!!

At the SAME time,, we are LED to believe that the Messiah Obama,, the ONE and ONLY,, made some kind of Magnanimous gesture by calling for the Restoration of the Fla. and Mich. delegate Votes…

So tell me people,,WHERE is the risk in DOING this when a DEAL had ALREADY been made between Obama and Hillary to have this "Vote of Acclamation"??

Tell me Florida Democrats,,YOU voted for Hillary..

WHO did your Florida Delelgates vote for last night??

We are ALL left with a sense of an intense struggle and a Heroic Effort  to overcome a rift that DIDN’T exist according to the the events that transpired last night..

YOU Democrats have WON!!

YOU are VICTORIOUS!!

And you are SO Satisfied and Gratified in your victory..

OHH,, HOW we Americans LOVE a "Triumph over  Insurmountable Odds" Story..

We'll wipe away the tears and congratulate ourselves over our Great American Spirit..We'll tell ourselves that,, in America,, and ONLY in America,, ANYTHING can be accomplished as LONG as you JUST don't give up..

And Yet,,  the ONE that YOU voted for didn’t even get ONE VOTE last night... NOT ONE!!!

YOU are FOOLED into believing that YOU won something EVEN though you were,,  in FACT,, SIMPLY taken OUT of the Game..

IT WAS ALL SO PLANNED……..ALL so Choreographed..

THIS convention,,and the ONE coming UP,, are BOTH a FARCE..It NO longer matters what the American People want or EVEN what they call for..It DOSEN'T even matter  what WE VOTE for anymore..

Is it ANY wonder that the Voter Turnout was so LOW during this most recent of elections..On top of ALL of the election controversies we NOW KNOW as PLAIN as day that EVEN when there’s NO indication of "Voter Fraud" our votes STILL don’t count..

We NO longer have a say so in the vetting or nomination process..THEY tell US who’s going to run and their ONLY job is to convince US that THEIR choice is what WE wanted ALL along..

I KNEW,, and said so MANY times over the past 4 years,, that when an UNKNOWN State Senator from Illlinois was introduced at the LAST Democrat Convention,, and EVERYBODY wondered WHO he was,, that Obama was going to be the NEXT Democrat Nominee for President..

OVER and ABOVE the FACT that WE were TOLD time and time again that it was OWED to Hillary..That HER  nomination was going to be a SURE THING..

We’ve ALL seen the questions on these sites and elsewhere,, Hell,, SOME of us have even ASKED them..

HOW is it that our Nominees end up being,, a NOBODY coming from NOWHERE managing to wrest the nomination from as POWERFUL a PARTY Figure as is Hillary on the ONE side,, and on the other,, HOW is it that the OTHER guy,, if ANYTHING ,, comes from being "OUT of the Race" at ONE point BECAUSE he IS known ALL TOO WELL by EVERYBODY and ONE who SINGLE handedly spurred on the Republican Revolution that PUT the Democrats IN control..

How is it that ALMOST overnight THESE are OUR ONLY choices??

There can BE only ONE answer..They are not OUR Choices at ALL..They are EACH and in EACH case,,

THE Parties’s choices…….

Immigration reduces wages by 4 percent for all workers and 7 percent for those without a high school education; Between March 2000 and March 2004 the number of unemployed adult natives increased by 2.3 million, but at the same time the number of employed immigrants increased by 2.3 million; Analysis shows little evidence that immigrants only take jobs Americans don’t want.

For one thing, immigrant job gains have been throughout the labor market, with more than two-thirds of their employment gains in jobs that require at least a high school degree;

In job categories such as construction labor, building maintenance, and food preparation, immigration added 1.1 million adult workers in the last 4 years, but there were nearly 2 million unemployed adult natives in these very same occupations in 2004.

About two-thirds of the new immigrant workers in these occupations are illegal aliens; Not only is native unemployment highest in occupations which saw the largest immigrant influx, the available evidence also shows that the employment picture for natives looks worst in those parts of the country that saw the largest increase in illegal immigrants..

So,,ONE of the reasons for unemployment among Natives who can FILE for Benefits is that their Jobs are going to Illegal Invaders who CAN’T ..

There are MANY reasons why the Rate of Unemployment Fluctuates from time to time but of ALL of them,,

TAX cuts have NOTHING to DO with this..

I LOVE Fox News and I’ll TELL you WHY..( which incidently is the SAME reason the FAR Left Whackos HATE Fox News..)..

Since Friday when Emporess Pelosi shut down Congress to AVOID a stunning Defeat,, I have been watching Democrat after Democrat try to get on FOX News and try to AVOID explaining their position on this drilling Issue..

WHY they shut down Congress without allowing a Vote..

EVERY one of them tried to do their BEST to make the discussion STRICTLY about ANTI- Republicans,, Anti-Oil Companies and Anti- Bush and the reporters are having NONE of it…

NONE will answer a STRAIGHT question and it’s SO apparent that THEY are USED to being catered to and fawned over by the Liberal Hack MSM..

It is refreshing to see that at least ONE News Organization isn’t a Puppet dancing to the SWAN song of the Democrats….

( BTW---They’re JUST as tough on Republicans too )…

Maybe the Democrats should just stick with Chris Matthews and Dan Rather….LMAO..

The threat of militant Islam on US college campuses

By Lee Kaplan Friday, May 16, 2008

An unusual thing happened on April 29th at the University of Colorado.

"A decidedly pro-U.S. and pro-Israel event took place on Ward Churchill’s old stomping grounds at the Boulder, Colorado campus as former PLO terrorists

"I’m just worried the event will be disrupted like our others," Jack Roldan, vice-chair of the CU College Republicans, told me just days before the event. "When John Ashcroft was our guest, the radicals and MSA carried on so much during his speech nobody could hear him. The same thing happened when we invited Madeleine Albright. Not only was the interference by leftist Palestinian students and the Muslim Students Association, but also from off campus groups like

***Hanan Ashrawi is a member of the Palestinian Legislative Council. She has long been the darling of certain segments of the Western media thanks to her fluent English, her PhD, and her gender. For example, Leslie Stahl of 60 Minutes has lauded Ashrawi as a "Palestinian who has been at the peace process longer than almost anyone" (program aired December 11, 1994). Ashrawi frequently appears on American television and radio. One rare exception to the journalistic fawning over Ashrawi was Barbara Amiel's 1993 profile of the Palestinian spokeswoman in the London Sunday Times. Amiel was struck by the "lies and distortions" in Ashrawi's retelling of events. A Palestinian Christian who is a longtime Holocaust denier, Ashrawi officially joined the PLO's "Palestinian Diplomatic Committee" and the "Intifada Political Committee" in 1988. Then, in 1991, Yassar Arafat appointed her as Official Spokesperson of the Palestinian Delegation to the "Middle East Peace Process." She served as the PLO's Minister of Higher Education and Research, and for one year was Head of its Political Committee. While pretending to be an "independent" civic activist outside the PLO, just quietly interested in protecting human rights for everyone besides Jews, in fact her non-profit organization (named MIFTAH) is propped up with $850,000 per annum granted it directly by Yasser Arafat. Ashrawi's MIFTAH web site makes it clear that she has never come to terms with Israel's existence and has never met an Arab suicide bomber she does not like.***

The 2 ex-terrorists event marked a watershed moment in getting the message out that jihad being promoted on US college campuses and can be checked if only some minor efforts are made by those seeking to present the truth in cooperation with college administrators and campus law enforcement.

I was attached to the event by the Walid Shoebat Foundation to organize in advance attendance and to head off any problems with the MSA on the Boulder campus. This event, titled "Why We Want to Kill You," after Shoebat’s latest book, introduced attendees to the terrorist backgrounds of Shoebat and Saleem, both of whom were once assigned by the Muslim Brotherhood to promote militant Islam and jihad within the United States during their younger years and who had been actively involved with terrorism through the PLO in the Middle East in their youth. Shoebat explained to a rapt audience about how he had been assigned to Loop College in Chicago and worked from a basement with a militant imam to promote jihad in America. Saleem told the audience how he went on his first terrorist mission for al Fatah while less than ten years old and later as an adult who was assigned by the Muslim Brotherhood to spread jihad within the US, particularly on college campuses.

The event, like previous events, had many obstacles to overcome just the week before. Posters about the event that were authorized by the campus administration were torn down almost as fast as they went up or covered with posters from an Islam Awareness Week presented by the MSA on campus that same week. The distribution of free advance tickets, available at the Student Union also had problems; when people came by to get them they were at first told the event had already been sold out and was inaccessible or that persons without student ID could not obtain them. It was never made clear if this was intentional or an error on the part of staff. The campus police demanded double the police officers for security resulting in an additional $5,000 expense for the College Republicans that was ultimately met.

But the worst vilification in advance of the event came from the local

The MSA in one breath would declare both men as terrorists that should be arrested if they were really ex-terrorists, then proclaim its support for terrorist groups like Hamas and Hizballah. Both Shoebat and Saleem were accused of being frauds out to make money and the press cited as their source comments from Ibrahim Hooper, the head of CAIR that has had several of its leaders already indicted and prosecuted for aiding terrorist movements like Hamas. Some intelligence gathered before the event revealed the MSA planned to drown out the speakers by screaming "Allahu Akhbar" during the event. But once the campus police were alerted about this and advised to warn the MSA not to do so, the plan fell apart. As an added precaution, every seat at the event had a disclaimer listing the state law about disrupting a lawful meeting and the legal penalties involved with a warning that intentional disruptions would lead to prosecution. There was no repetition of near riots and heckling as has occurred atUC Irvine, UC Berkeley and other campuses in the past.

Only days before, some MSA students approached the College Republicans’ table in the student union where tickets were also being distributed to declare they found the event "offensive." These students spoke of "Israeli state terrorism" in the same breath they claimed to oppose terrorism, but also acknowledged their support for Hamas. At the same time, when I asked how many of the MSA students had read the Hamas charter, none had. One 18 year-old, who identified himself as Vice President of the campus MSA, whose family came from Iran, said that Iran does not persecute Jews, that Ahmadinajhad never said he wanted to wipe Israel off the map, and was misquoted by all the news agencies of the world. He claimed that all exhortations to jihad and calls to kill Jews were mistranslations (apparently only he knew how to translate the Koran). The next day at the question and answer period after Shoebat and Saleem spoke, he, thje student, announced that if the US went to war against Iran, he would go fight for Iran that he referred to as "my country," despite his growing up in and attending college right here in America.

It was to ideas like these that both ex-terrorists addressed as a need for people in America to understand that worldwide jihad is being promoted as much in the colleges of America as it is overseas through the Muslim Students Association and its affiliated groups. Kamel Saleem pointed to the US flag on stage and said, "I don’t advocate against all Muslim people. There are many good Muslims," he continued, "But I want to see Muslim-Americans running with the US flag saying they support America against America’s enemies,." emphasizing the epiphany he had since starting out with the Muslim Brotherhood.

Accused by another MSA student of staging the event to make money or sell books, Walid Shoebat replied, "I’ll gladly open the urged people to become aware of this and fight it. Despite the clarity of his message, one student, a former President of the MSA at the University of Colorado tried to shout over him, "What’s your message? What’s your message?" as if he had spent the last two hours in a vacuum.

"My message," said Shoebat, "is for you to shut up!" at which point the entire audience rose to their feet in a standing ovation. The MSA members remained seated, but it was clear the rest of the Boulder, Colorado crowd did enthusiastically get the message.
And this time they got the point with no interruptions. Not one heckler had to be removed that evening to the astonishment of the

THIS is a warning that WE must NOT Ignore and the warning AND the DANGER are BOTH coming from our OWN,, from within our OWN institutions of Higher Learning…OUR OWN COLLEGES..

We have LONG known that there is a difference between Intelligence and Education..

We have YET to recognize the difference between Education and Indoctrination whether it be Islamic Militantism or Socialism..It is ALL Anti-Americanism…

EITHER way..Beware the ENEMY within…They represent the most DANGEROUS Threat to America,, the American People and the American way of life..MORE so then ANY outside Enemy,, no matter HOW powerful or well equipped THAT enemy may be..Even MORE dangerous then the "Phony Soldier"…

The Florida Chamber of Commerce and The Florida Retail Federation argued for three years that business owners had an absolute right to control their employees. That’s why they kept calling it the,

"Take-Your-Guns-to-Work" legislation.

They claimed they could search employee vehicles and ban firearms from those vehicles in the employer’s parking lot.

When the argument came up about CUSTOMERS’ rights under the law,, They claimed businesses didn’t care if customers had guns in cars, they only cared about their right to control employees.

When the legislature passed the law protecting the rights of workers, The Florida Chamber of Commerce and the Florida Retail Federation filed a lawsuit in federal court asking the Court to throw out the law.

They argued that the law requiring businesses to allow guns in vehicles in their parking lots constituted an unconstitutional "taking" of their property.

In court, the federal judge ruled against them – THEY LOST.

They argued that OSHA regulations require them to provide a safe work environment for their workers, which required them to ban guns in parking lots to comply with OSHA requirements.

In court, the federal judge ruled against them . – THEY LOST.

They argued that, as employers, they had an absolute right to control the conduct of their employees and could ban guns from employee vehicles in company parking lots while employees were at work.

In court, the federal judge ruled against them – THEY LOST.

Those are the three points argued by the Chamber and the Retail Federation.

"A nice-sounding bill called the "Global Poverty Act," sponsored by Democratic presidential candidate and Senator Barack Obama, is up for a Senate vote on Thursday and could result in the imposition of a global tax on the United States. The bill, which has the support of many liberal religious groups, makes levels of U.S. foreign aid spending subservient to the dictates of the United Nations

Senator Joe Biden, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, has not endorsed either Senator Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton in the presidential race. But on Thursday, February 14, he is trying to rush Obama's "Global Poverty Act" (S.2433) through his committee. The legislation would commit the U.S. to spending 0.7 percent of gross national product on foreign aid, which amounts to a phenomenal 13-year total of $845 billion over and above what the U.S. already spends.

The bill, which is item number four on the committee's

A

The legislation itself requires the President "to develop and implement a comprehensive strategy to further the United States foreign policy objective of promoting the reduction of global poverty, the elimination of extreme global poverty, and the achievement of the Millennium Development Goal of reducing by one-half the proportion of people worldwide, between 1990 and 2015, who live on less than $1 per day."

The bill defines the term "Millennium Development Goals" as the goals set out in the

The U.N.

In addition to seeking to eradicate poverty, that declaration commits nations to banning "small arms and light weapons" and ratifying a series of treaties, including the International Criminal Court Treaty, the Kyoto Protocol (global warming treaty), the Convention on Biological Diversity, the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women, and the Convention on the Rights of the Child.

The Millennium Declaration also affirms the U.N. as "the indispensable common house of the entire human family, through which we will seek to realize our universal aspirations for peace, cooperation and development."

Jeffrey Sachs, who runs the U.N.'s "Millennium Project," says that the U.N. plan to force the U.S. to pay 0.7 percent of GNP in increased foreign aid spending would add $65 billion a year to what the U.S. already spends. Over a 13-year period, from 2002, when the U.N.'s Financing for Development conference was held, to the target year of 2015, when the U.S. is expected to meet the "Millennium Development Goals," this amounts to $845 billion. And the only way to raise that kind of money, Sachs

(S.2433) was introduced in the Senate by Senators Barack Obama (D-IL), Chuck Hagel (Chief RINO and Democrat Wannabe-NE), and Maria Cantwell (D-WA) on December 7, 2007.evidence that "CTR funds have eased the Russian military's budgetary woes, freeing resources for such initiatives as the war in Chechnya and defense modernization." He recommended that Congress "eliminate CTR funding so that it does not finance additional, perhaps more threatening, programs in the former Soviet Union." However, over $6 billion has already been spent on the program. exposed as having funded nuclear projects in Iran through Russia. bill itself quotes Bush as declaring that "We fight against poverty because opportunity is a fundamental right to human dignity." Bush's former top aide, Michael J. Gerson, writes in his new book, Heroic Conservatism, that Bush should be remembered as the President who "sponsored the largest percentage increases in foreign assistance since the Marshall Plan..."

Obama's bill has only six co-sponsors. They are Senators Maria Cantwell, Dianne Feinstein, Richard Lugar, Richard Durbin, Chuck Hagel and Robert Menendez. But it appears that Biden and Obama see passage of this bill as a way to highlight Democratic Party priorities in the Senate.

The House version (H.R. 1302), sponsored by Rep. Adam Smith (D-Wash.), had only 84 co-sponsors before it was suddenly brought up on the House floor last September 25 and was passed by voice vote. House Republicans were caught off-guard, unaware that the pro-U.N. measure committed the U.S. to spending hundreds of billions of dollars.

It appears the Senate version is being pushed not only by Biden and Obama, a member of the committee, but Lugar, the ranking Republican member. Lugar has worked with Obama in the past to promote more foreign aid for Russia, supposedly to stem nuclear proliferation, and has become Obama's mentor. Like Biden, Lugar is a globalist. They have both promoted passage of the U.N.'s Law of the Sea Treaty, for example.

The so-called "Lugar-Obama initiative" was modeled after the Nunn-Lugar program, also known as the Cooperative Threat Reduction (CTR) program, which was designed to eliminate weapons of mass destruction in the former Soviet Union. But one defense analyst, Rich Kelly, noted

Another program modeled on Nunn-Lugar, the Initiatives for Proliferation Prevention (IPP), was recently

More foreign aid through passage of the Global Poverty Act was identified as one of the strategic goals of InterAction, the alliance of U.S-based international non-governmental organizations that lobbies for more foreign aid. The group is heavily financed by the U.S. Government, having received $1.4 million from taxpayers in fiscal year 2005 and $1.7 million in 2006. However, InterAction recently issued a report accusing the United States of "falling short on its commitment to rid the world of dire poverty by 2015 under the U.N. Millennium Development Goals..."

It's not clear what President Bush would do if the bill passes the Senate. The

Even these increases, however, will not be enough to satisfy the requirements of the Obama bill. A global tax will clearly be necessary to force American taxpayers to provide the money."

So NOW you know what this Gorebal Warming Scam is REALLY all about.. DISARM America…THEN,, Resdistribute America’s Wealth through the Usurption of her SOVEREIGNTY in order to establish the United Nations as a WORLD Dictator..…

And OBAMA is ALL for it…Hell!! He’s PUSHING for it……

The ( DEMOCRAT ) Senate Ethics Committee report said that McCain's,

"actions were not improper nor attended with gross negligence and did not reach the level of requiring institutional action against him.

Senator McCain has violated no law of the United States or specific Rule of the United States Senate."

On his Keating Five experience, McCain has said:

"The appearance of it was wrong. It's a wrong appearance when a group of senators appear in a meeting with a group of regulators, because it conveys the impression of undue and improper influence. And it was the wrong thing to do." ( WRONG but NOT Illegal )

Several accounts of the controversy contend that McCain was ONLY included in the investigation in the FIRST place so that there would be at least one Republican target. Glenn's inclusion in the investigation has been attributed to Republicans who were angered by the inclusion of McCain, as well as committee members who thought that dropping Glenn (and McCain) would make it look bad for the remaining three Democratic Senators.

Regardless of the level of their involvement, both senators were greatly affected by it. McCain would write in 2002 that attending the two April 1987 meetings was "the worst mistake of my life".Glenn has described the Senate Ethics Committee investigation as the low point of his life.

So what do we REALLY have here..WE have McCain saying that ATTENDING the MEETINGS was the "worse mistake of my life" ONLY because it gave the APPEARANCE of something wrong..

He did NOT admit to,, NOR WAS HE FOUND TO HAVE BEEN DOING ANYTHING Illegal or unethical..

ONCE again the Left LIES through Distortions and out of context quotes..

Now THAT'S it..THAT'S the WHOLE story..The WHOLE truth..

All this other BS is NOTHING more then Slanderous RUMORMONGERING..

"Democratic Rep. Dennis Kucinich of Ohio,, who is leading the charge such as it is to impeach President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney,, finally got a hearing on Capitol Hill to consider what he calls the two men’s "culpability for leading the country to war under false pretenses."

The hearing before the House Judiciary Committee went for nearly six hours in response to Kucinich’s "Articles of Impeachment..

Democratic leaders (who were themselves CALLING for the Invasion as far back as 1998 ),, resisted Kucinich’s efforts to hold a hearing on his Impeachment Articles and seemed reluctant to fuel the Impeachment fire that rages strong among some of their party’s ( Far Left and ) Liberal supporters.

The hearing was initially billed by Kucinich and others as an "Impeachment Hearing.".. By July 17, when it landed on the House Judiciary Committee’s calendar,, it had been renamed as a hearing on the "Bush Imperial Presidency.".. THEN earlier this week, it was changed again to a "Hearing on Executive Power and Its Constitutional Limitations."

Republican members of the committee,, who sometimes avoid showing up for hearings that they view as completely partisan,, eagerly attended the circus,, if only to needle Democrats for holding an event they know FULL WELL will NEVER lead to Impeachment Proceedings.. ( because the DEMOCRATS really DON’T want that.. They’d rather PLAY the LIE on TV then reveal the TRUTH of their OWN culpability..)

"It seems that we are hosting an anger management class," said Texas Republican Rep. Lamar Smith. "Nothing is going to come out of this hearing with regard to impeachment of the president. I know it, the media knows it, even the speaker knows it."

Rep. John Conyers,, ( Who is Facing his OWN Ethics Charges ) is the Michigan Democrat who chairs the committee,, and he acknowledged it wasn’t an Impeachment hearing..

"To the regret of many, this is not an impeachment hearing. To have an impeachment hearing, the House of Representatives has to vote to authorize that a committee begin an inquiry, and that has not taken place yet."

Undeterred,, Kucinich, who maintains a special Impeachment website,, relished his victory in getting this far. "Americans have been waiting for Congress to hold the President accountable for his long list of misdeeds and misrepresentations. This hearing is a long overdue first step," Kucinich said in a statement…

The event featured testimony from several experts on impeachment and notable critics of the Bush administration’s ALLEGED excesses, including Bob Barr, the Libertarian Party presidential nominee and former Republican congressman, Bruce Fein, former Reagan administration associate attorney general, and Kucinich himself.

Democratic leaders in Congress have been assailed by some ( Left Wing ) Liberal supporters for not doing more to stand up to Bush on Iraq War funding and,, more recently,, on the update to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act,, which oversees the government’s eavesdropping powers.. "

Now,,if you ASK ME,,,,

THIS issue is NOT news because it’s a DEAD issue,, It was DESTINED to be DOA from the very beginning..

EVEN if the Republicans didn’t oppose it the DEMOCRATS would have…

Somebody should Impeach Kucinich and Conyers for wasting Congress’s time and tax payers’ money.

The Keating Five were five

After a lengthy investigation, the

At the SAME time,D-OH) and John McCain (R-AZ), were CLEARED of having acted improperly.

Senators John Glenn

The attacks on John McCain can be traced largely to the work of one man, Ted Sampley, of Kinston, NC. The following is a direct quote of the entire chapter about Sampley from Ms. Keating's book;

*** Shortly after war broke out in the Persion Gulf, I received a call from longtime POW activist, Ted Sampley. " Did you hear what happened to Wetzel? ", he asked, " I mean, what really happened to Wetzel?"

Navy Lieutenant Robert Wetzel was an A-6 Intruder pilot shot down on the first day of the war. At the time of Sampley’s call, the airman was listed as missing in action. According to Sampley, that designation was just a cover for the grisly truth:

Wetzel had survived his shoot down, only to parachute directly into a mob of angry Iraqis. Sampley said that the anti-Semetic crowd had assumed from his nametag that Wetzel was Jewish. They had all happened to be carrying knives, so they had carved him up on the spot. Bits of Wetzel’s body had been doled out as souvenirs.

" Tha Pentagon doesn’t want anybody to know about this.", Sampley confided. " But I already told the family."

Wetzel eventually came home, alive and intact. Sampley later admitted he had never entirely believed the story but had told it anyway to publicize the plight of POWs.

Fortunately for Sampley, he did not wake up one morning to find himself surrounded by a crowd of angry Wetzels. In fact, over the course of his long carreer as a MIA rumormonger, Sampley has never received a thrashing either from the Wetzels or from any other family whose grief he has co-opted. ***

To Sampley's way of thinking, that is as it should be. He presents himself as somewhat culpable, but always forgivable; just a likable, big-hearted oaf who sometimes gets carried away by the POW crusade.

Unlike his colleagues who uncover POW "evidence" and solicit funds to embark on rescue missions, Sampley specializes in media manipulation and public relations. He has been invaluable to the activists, who rely on him to fan the flames of existing MIA stories, either through phone calls to legitimate journalists or on the pages of his own newspaper broadsheet, U.S. Veteran News and Report. In addition to his work in support of fellow activists, Sampley specializes in orchestrating stunts that are dramatic and at times dangerous.

See the REAL story of Ted Sampley at the link below…

www.miafacts.org/prankster.htm

So NOW he has decided to take his well documented " Ends Justifies ANY and ALL means " approach and use his talents against John McCain, launching a Wetzel style Smear Campaign that the Left has SO eagerly picked up on..

A LONG drawn out and desparate attempt is being made by the left to discredit McCain in light of the COMPLETE and UTTER FAILURE of Obama’s Trip overseas to produce the desired effects..Indeed,, As Obama seeks,, in his MONUMENTAL ARROGANCE,, the recognition by world leaders as the Presumptive "PRESIDENT of the United States" ( POTUS ) and WE at home watch in AWE as he makes speech after speech reflecting the moveon.org/Micheal Moore view of AMERICA and AMERICANS,, HIS numbers in the polls ACTUALLY continue to drop as a result..

We sat and we WATCHED and listened as he REFUSED to admit that the Surge,, which HE opposed and McCain PUSHED for,, was successful and had ANYTHING to DO with the "Positive" news coming out of Iraq these days..We WONDERED at the News Blackout for the past year and MANY of us posted comments that to the Liberal MSM,,"NO news must mean GOOD news" and we were IMMEDIATELY attacked and called names like Right Wing Nut Jobs,, Bush bootlickers and other more profane labels..We were CONSTANTLY berated and harranged that the War was LOST and that Iraq was a waste of Time..

Obama STILL preaches that EVEN as the MSM distorts the Truth and attempts to Hi-Jack the news from Iraq by placing credit,, by DISTORTING the quotes of Iraqi Officials,, on the shoulders of a Senator with 143 ACTIVE work days behind him..

The contention that McCain is somehow inelligible as a leader based on his experiences as a POW nearly 40 YEARS ago is a BLATANT exploitation and distortion of the facts at hand and is PURELY a result of an extremely Biased and Politically Motivated Agenda..

As far as the reprinting of Sampley’s conclusions are concerned,, it JUST goes to show how FAR the Left is willing to stoop to distract from Obama’s inadequacies as a LEADER and his inept blunders with regard to world affairs..They CANNOT possibly raise Obama above the level that HE’S capable of so the next best thing is to SMEAR the other guy..

In THIS case, a REAL American Hero by the name of John McCain…

And Hey,, I say this and as I have posted MANY times,, I don’t EVEN like the guy.. But I HATE Liars even MORE…

I TRULY believe that ALL Muslims are NOT terrorists..That the Religion’s Image has been Hi-Jacked by these Thugs..

I Wonder what it takes to turn an otherwise peaceful member of such a religion INTO such a thug and I have come to a conclusion..

What Must it BE like to be a young Muslim in the harsh lands of the Middle East…

To be BORN in a War that your Grandfather was born into..To be raised to Hate the Filthy Israeli Animals that Occupy MUSLIM lands and KNOW that THIS is an ABOMINATION before your GOD..To HEAR this propaganda every day of your life..To sleep with a rifle from age 7..To go to a school that drills such hatred into your young skull each and every day..To constantly hear,,over and over again until it becomes a PART of you,, that the EXTERMINATION,, to the LAST man,, woman and CHILD is the ONLY solution acceptable to ALLAH..To KNOW that your Brothers and Sisters,, Mothers and Fathers,, Uncles and Aunts and ALL your neighbors,, ALL your friends,, EVEN the OFFICIAL stand of your COUNTRY ALL reflect this malignant and putrid Hatrid as DID your ancestors before you....To LEARN a ONE SIDED History that tells you that the most HEINOUS atrocities committed by YOUR ancestors were SANTIONED by your GOD and therefore RIGHTGEOUS while the SLIGHTEST opposition was a BLASPHEMY in the eyes of Allah and therefore becomes a CRIME of the WORST possible kind,, a crime against your GOD,,,,and KNOW that this is worthy of NOTHING short of a DEATH MOST FOUL as DEMANDED by that very SAME GOD..

And,,

Paradise awaits those who would but Pick up the sword and OBEY Allah…

Into THIS comes the al-Queada recruiter who FURTHER tells you that YOU have a DUTY to rise up and take ARMS against the present day CRUSADE mounted by the SAME Westerners who invaded all those many centuries ago…Stories of those ancient Atrocities come to mind as you pick up your rifle and prepare to face your ancient and eternal enemy…YOU,,, have decided to GO TO WAR!!!

In the Midst of all this,,You SEE the Anti-War Propaganda Machine,, IN AMERICA,, CHAMPION your cause while VILLIFYING your ENEMY,, THEIR OWN SOLDIERS… You learn on an American Television Network ( CNN ) that EVEN the LEADERS of your Hated enemy,, the present day ALLIES of your ANCIENT enemy,, regard THEMSELVES as Terrorists ( Kerry ) Murderers of the Innocent ( Murtha) and members of a force reminiscent of the most notorious regime in the Annals of History,, the universally condemned for ALL time NAZIS ( Durbin )…On TOP of that you Learn from the preiminent leaders of the Party in Power,, and the Party itself ( Reid and Pelosi ),, that FOR your ENEMY,, the War is LOST…

We will NEVER fully know the exact toll that these people have had on our OWN American Soldiers..The Soldiers KILLED by those who these people,, and MANY others,,, have CONSISTANTLY INCITED,, BOLSTERED and SUPPORTED by word and deed…..

Instead,,

We wonder at the successes of the Terrorist’s recruiters over there while ignoring and dismissing the successes of the recruiters for al-Queada over HERE,, amongst our OWN Leaders..

There are MORE ways then ONE to Spit upon your OWN soldiers……And those who DO these things TODAY are NOT the first to wipe the spittal from their mouths while claiming to "Support the Troops"..

I have ZERO respect for ANY terrorist but,,

In MANY ways,, EVEN NO respect for a TERRORIST is an improvement over how I feel towards TRAITORS…

Another Gaffe or Fruedian Slip

In a never-ending string of mis-steps showing that Barack Obama isn't ready to be President, he has chosen to give a major campaign speech at a monument set up by Hitler to symbolize German dominance over Europe, a monument that celebrated Prussian victories over other European countries.

Still, even as the issue of his speech's location has now been settled, a number of politicians in Berlin continue to be dissatisfied with the site. The Siegessäule -- or Victory Column -- was erected in memory of Prussia's victories over Denmark (1864), Austria (1866) and France (1870/71). The column originally stood in front of the Reichstag, Germany's parliament building, but was moved by Adolf Hitler to its current location in 1939 to make way for his planned transformation of Berlin into the Nazi capital "Germania."
The Siegessäule in Berlin was moved to where it is now by Adolf Hitler. the deputy leader of the Free Democrats, Rainer Brüderle, told Bild am Sonntag.

Obama previously was going to campaign at the Bradenburg gate, forcing the German Chancellor Angela Merkel to "dissuade" him (another of Obama's many acts which put our allies in a bad situation). Apparently he didn't think it important to actually LEARN the history of the countries he is visiting BEFORE he Dictates HIS policies to them….

"He saw it as a symbol of German superiority and of the victorious wars against Denmark, Austria and France,"

I LOVE the way the Liberal Media headlines this…

"Maliki Embraces Obama’s Timetable for withdrawal"..

Turns out that the German Newspaper ( and our OWN Liberal MSM ) isn’t any better then Jimmy Carter when it comes to reporting the TRUTH accurately about what Foreign Prime Ministers say…

Here’s TODAY’S headlines.;

"Iraqi Gov’t Statement Released Claiming Prime Minister Does Not Endorse Obama Withdrawal Timetable."

"Ali al-Dabbagh, the chief spokesman for al-Maliki, said in a statement Sunday that the prime minister's comments were "not conveyed accurately" ( and REPEATED here ) by Der Spiegel. "

"Al-Dabbagh said al-Maliki did not endorse a specific timetable but instead discussed "an Iraqi vision" of U.S. troop withdrawals based on negotiations with Washington and "in the light of the continuing positive developments on the ground." "…

In other words,, he wants ANY Timetable to be predicated on "positive developments on the ground."..

That was NEVER Obama’s Plan,, it has ALWAYS been Bush’s….

It was NEVER Obama’s plan to remove our troops as a result of a VICTORY..He has ALWYS said that Victory was IMPOSSIBLE…

HE VOTED AGAINST THE SURGE THAT EVEN MADE THIS INDICATION OF AN APPARENT VICTORY A REALITY…

He was calling for this withdrawal when EVERYBODY,, including HIMSELF,, was still saying ,, FALSELY,, that we were LOSING..

HIS timetable was part of his SURRENDER strategy..THIS is NO secret..We’ve ALL been HEARING this and commenting ON it for a LONG time..

The Democrats seem to think that they NOW own the term "Timetable" and that ANY use of the term HAS to signify THEIR plan and ALL credit must be given to THEM…NOT SO…

The FACT of the matter is,,, a timetable of SOME kind was ALWAYS an inevitable conclusion here..The argument has ALWAYS been WHEN to execute it and under WHAT conditions,, and when NOT to execute it as part of a SURRENDER...

Despite the FACT that the Democrats have been against this war almost from the very day that they VOTED FOR IT and have claimed ALL along that WE were LOSING,, it NOW appears that they are trying to Hi-jack whatever CREDIT there may be from this irrefutable evidence of a VICTORY…

On TOP of THAT.. They’re TRYING to INFLUENCE an upcoming ELECTION by CLAIMING that ALL this was done by a FIRST term Senator who has spent roughly 145 Days ACTING like a Senator instead of being a candidate..

In Other words..OBAMA had NOTHING to DO with this...In Fact,,HE and his Democrat Cohorts have done EVERYTHING Possible to SEE that THIS day should NEVER come..

Recently ( some months ago ) in the news,, We ALL heard of at least 41 Self Rightgeous Democrat Senators

( Senator Reid and 40 of his Left Wing Democrat colleagues ),, who were joined by a Howling MOB including George Soros’ Media Matters,, as they sought to castigate and silence Rush Limbaugh because of his reference to "phony" Anti-War soldiers…

Limbaugh’s comments,, taken IN context,, referred ONLY to Jesse Macbeth and those LIKE him..

McBath is a CONFESSED and CONVICTED phony,, whose faked but graphic war crimes confessions received FAR wider Media Attention,, and COVERAGE,, than did his later confession to the LIES.. He had,, in a WELL Documented Finding of FACT,, been actually discharged in BOOT CAMP after only 40 days of service..

It was ONLY the DISTORTIONS and the SUBSEQUENT Controversy ( and the efforts of INDEPENDENT Internet Sources ) over Limbaugh’s comments that even made McBeth’s Fraudulance and Exposure as a "Phony Soldier" a matter of "PUBLIC knowledge" at ALL..

EVEN TODAY,, one must SEARCH for the REAL truth of this story in order to find it…

The Coverage of REID’S Lies were FAR more reported then were the EXPOSURES of those Lies..

While MANY are well aware of the Controversy over Rush’s Comments,, FEW can even cite the NAME of the "Phony Soldier" in question and Indeed,, MANY still try to paint Limbaugh as "Anti-Military" and "Anti- Troops" when in fact,, it is THEY that seek to do HARM to BOTH….And ALL of this was based on the INTENDED and FULLY knowledgable Distortions of his comments by those who FALSELY claim to "Suppoort the Troops"....

Macbeth follows a grand tradition of fake soldiers whose "war crimes" confessions have been used by the Left to slander AMERICA through the service of her troops…And MAKE no mistake about it..THESE are attacks on AMERICA!!!!

The Troops are MERE Pawns,, to be USED,, DESTROYED and/or discarded by the Left when their Purpose has been served....Other then THAT,, they mean NOTHING to the Left..

The "Phony Soldier" will frequently claim,, Over and Over and Over again,, as though to CONVINCE themselves of the Lie,, a military expertize and/or background born of Combat Experience.. Usually but NOT always they will claim some kind of Security Clearance to further establish SOME sense and degree of credibility.. They will often claim to speak for the MAJORITY of our troops in their Anti-War Rants.. They’ll expouse the Moral Vaccuum that exists in America’s involvement and often cite PERSONAL War Atrocities commited at the insistance of "ORDERS coming from on high..".. When Pressured they’ll claim that their OWN lives were threatened if they didn’t commit these atrocities.. They NEVER seem to have a suitable answer to the question,,

"If what you’re saying is TRUE,,WHY DIDN"T YOU REPORT THIS..If NOT then,,,WHY NOT NOW??"

And HOW come you’re NOT in Prison???

THEY won't answer that question but I will..THEY don't report these things because if they DID,,THEY'D risk EXPOSURE for their LIES...

They will CLAIM to SPEAK for the Indigenous people when they say that there is an overwhelming opposition to our presence and generally portray the War as being a LOST cause from the beginning…

For example,, Micah Ian Wright,, author of the 2003 anti war best seller,, "You Back the Attack,",, was an Army Ranger and Combat veteran PRAISED and often QUOTED at USC’s Annenberg School and in Media Icons such as the Washington Post until he was finally "outed" as a complete and utter FRAUD..

Many similar examples of "phony soldiers" used by the Left for war crimes confessions are WELL documented in B.G. Burkett’s bestseller "Stolen Valor"...

Indeed, the problem became so epidemic with the Left that a Republican Congress in 2005,, at the urging of many REAL veterans,, was moved to pass the "Stolen Valor Act",, finally CRIMINALIZING such activities as those of Macbeth and MANY others..The LEFT Howled in PROTEST at this so called "Violation" of FREE SPEECH…..

There is NO one more INJURED by phony war crimes charges lodged by "Phony Soldiers" than Legitimate Veterans themselves whose service is dishonored,, Usually Forever it seems,, by the slander…

I know… In 1971,, in addition to listening to John Kerry falsely compare our forces in Viet Nam to "the Army of Jhengiz Khan,",, I heard Al Hubbard,, the PRESIDENT of Kerry’s VVAW,, appearing with Kerry in forums such as "Meet the Press" and before Congress confessing to war crimes such as the " bombing of innocent villages" and the "Cutting off of the Ears and Noses of INNOCENT Civilians" in an ORGY of Despicable,, Criminal and Bloodthirsty Rampages..

Hubbard was presented as an Air Force pilot,, who appeared on NATIONAL television on the MOST trusted NEWS NETWORKS of the time while wearing the Distinguished Flying Cross and many other medals ALL while bemoaning America’s guilt and criminal activities in Viet Nam…

The Problem with this IS,, HE was NONE of these things,, having left the Air Force as a Sergeant and never having served in Viet Nam at all…EVER!!!

The result??

EVEN after the Frauds were exposed??

Americans sat in their homes nightly and listened to NEWS coverages of the War REFLECTING these accusations.. ALWAYS with the ever present underlying theme that WE NO longer had ANY Business being in Viet Nam..That we had LOST the Moral Clarity to continue.. That we should NEVER have BEEN there in the FIRST Place..

And THUS,,,The So-called "Unbiased" MSM had become the WILLING Propaganda Machine for the Anti- War Left as it STILL is today...

Walter Cronkite,, "the most TRUSTED man in America",, sitting in New York at a desk App. 9000 miles from Saigan,, declared that the Viet Nam War was Indeed LOST..

In the Post Viet Nam Era,, AFTER the returning soldiers were SPIT upon and CALLED many names like "Baby Killers" and WORSE.. ( ALL thanks to the Phony Soldier ) There came a proliferation of such movies as,, "Apocalyse Now",, "Full Metal Jacket" and "Coming home"..ALL portrying the certifiably "Troubled" Viet Nam Soldier and Vet in the mold of the "Phony Soldiers" of John Kerry... All were portrayed as being ONE word,, ONE step,, ONE incident away from Snapping or "Flashing Back" with unbridled violence,, to their days in Viet Nam..

A REAL and TANGIBLE FEAR of the Viet Nam Vet. emerged as a consequence..

And so,,, From OUT of the LIES of the " Phony Soldiers",,, The Post Viet Nam Era quickly became the Era of the Pycopathic,, Drug Induced,, Murderous,, Blindly Violent and WHOLLY UNPREDICTABLE Stereotype of the Viet Nam Vet...

Those of us who lived through those days remember it ALL too well..We LEARNED to HIDE and EVEN DENY our Military Service and Experiences and SOME even came to LOATHE them..

NOT so much because of their experiences over in ‘Nam but because of their experiences upon COMING HOME..

No Ticker tape parades for Us..No siree,, No free Drinks at the neighborhood bar celebrating our return..Oh No..At the ripe old age of 20 to 25 we faced WWII types,,our FATHERS,, who looked upon the Viet Nam Vet with CONTEMPT as AMERICA’S FIRST LOSERS…..

MANY became Homeless as Marriages failed as addictions to drugs and alcohol,,NEVER a PROBLEM in Viet nam,, manifested itself into their lives..This had the effect of further reinforcing the Stereotypes born out of the LIE…An America which was DEFENDED had turned it’s back on the defenders and SHUNNED them…

We remember the sidelong glances and looks of suspicion as others became aware of our military service and we remember the difficulties of trying to get a Job working alongside "Normal" people..More then ONE potential Employer,,USUALLY someone of MY own age who stayed HOME while I was away serving my country,, looked me straight in the eye and quothed,,, " Anyone too stupid to stay out of Viet Nam is too stupid to work for ME.."…

And if you DID get a job,, you ALWAYS seem to get the impression that others were waiting and watching for you to snap as they JUST KNEW you would eventually do….It was ONLY a matter of time…

But I guess,, worst of all by FAR,,and many YEARS later,, was looking at the upturned face of an 8-year old daughter and having to explian to her,, and NOT knowing HOW or WHY she should even have the knowledge to ASK such a question,,,

"No honey,,Daddy NEVER did ANY of those things while he was there.."..

I hear Viet Nam Vets. Being referred to as the "Forgotten Vets." And I say HELL No to that..WOULD to GOD that THAT should have been the case..The KOREAN Vet. was the "Forgotten" Vet,, The Viet Nam Vet.was the REJECTED Vet…AGAIN,,Thanks to the LIES of the "Phony Soldier"…

Thank GOD those days are gone,, May they BE gone FOREVER… I sat and watched recently as some kind of commercial,, I have NO Idea what it was all about,, finally got my attention..I saw men and women in uniform walking through a terminal of some kind..It was Quiet..Then there came the sound of someone clapping,, then another and yet another joined in until the whole room was filled with a chorus of clapping people ALL standing and paying homage to those who would serve their country..

I gotta tell you..We’ve come a LONG way since 1974…I don’t even mind saying that I was moved to tears…

Military personnel all over the world thank God for Rush Limbaugh’s stout defense of our military from these "Phony Soldiers"…In TODAY’S world,, we NEED not depend on the Liberal MSM to "Find out the Truth" of these despicable Characters..By the SAME token,, the SAME technology has made It possible for them to APPEAR anywhere,, on ANY site,, and at ANY time with these Phony Accounts,, accusations and false claims..We NEED to be AWARE of their Presence.. We NEED to KNOW that they are HERE.. It’s ELECTION time and THEY are ACTIVE ALL over the Blogasphere…

However,, In 1971,, there was NO Rush Limbaugh to defend us from the John Kerrys and the Al Hubbards and the McBeths of the world…

Indeed,, it is the U.S. Senate that is a Potemkin Village.. It is a body upon whose failure it WAS and IS to condemn Hubbard’s and Kerry’s 1971 libels and THAT Failure continues to this very day to be deafening.. It is also a place upon whose floor active duty soldiers of TODAY have been compared to the assassins of the Khmer Rouge (Senator Dick Durbin); people who terrorize women and children (Senator Kerry); and (in close proximity) cold blooded murderers (Rep. John Murtha)… HYPOCRACY and COWARDICE are terms too kind for those who DEMEAN our soldiers without regard to the consequences to them… This conduct when coupled with the effort to silence Limbaugh,, a stout and CONSISTANT defender of the troops,, can be best described with just TWO words: What TRAITORS...

And what of the phoney comments made by the likes of Murtha and Kerry?? Both of these so-called war "Hero's" have had their records SEALED and WHO but they know the REAL truth of their military service,, save God himself…

They make CLAIMS of Hero Status but offer NO evidence of it.. Yet their Supporters and the "Phony Soldiers" of today DEFEND these two while ATTACKING McCain’s EXEMPLARY Military Record..

His REFUSAL to go HOME while others were FORCED to stay displays a Heroism in the CLASSIC and HISTORICALLY Recognized sense of the word.. To Dismiss it on the basis of " he made his choice" SMACKS of a STUPIDITY beyond ALL comprehension and reason…It is EXACTLY that "Choice" that makes him the HERO that he IS….If Murtha and Kerry were truely honorable men worthy of the uniforms that once they wore,, they would go public with their military records,, just as many of us Viet Nam Veterans,, after YEARS of denial,, have finally been ABLE to do..

As for the Thoroughly Despicable and COWARDLY "Phony Soldier",, May he forever REAP the Misery that he SOWS….

WHY would THIS Congressman waste Taxpayer Money persuing a LOST cause??

Media Attention??

YOU bet..But a PARTICULAR kind of attention is being AIMED at..

Can ANYBODY say DISTRATION??????

Representative John Conyers has been charged by two former aides with repeated ethical violations:
