In Dante’s Inferno was reserved for the Betrayers. I’d say O’s on his way there. Here’s a tip–bring a sweater.

It really does make me sick this apology tour. . It seems that al Obama, MSM and for the matter the rest of the world focuses on is the short term death and destruction that has befallen Iraq since we have overthrown Saddam (as if .this is our fault).
Yes our war on terrorism has taken its toll in human life, the Iraqi infrastructure and the destruction of its cultural and religous institutions and this is sad. However we are doing this in the name of democracy in the Middle East and a long lasting peace. It’s time to get the world to start looking at the long term goals: The proliferation of world wide democracy and free market capitalism.
Unless terrorism is eliminated NOW at any cost these goals will never be reached.

The MSM changed it in the early 90s to avoid the obvious Liberal = Communist comparison.

But that’s still good news from England. Anyone talking about a joint RedState BlueCouncil effort?

& a TV, with cable hookup. Electricity? Check. Fresh clothing, new rifles, and clean hands. Not looking too clammy from the heat. Even those white plastic chairs they sell at WalMart.

Seems like all they need is a little paint on that end table, redo the carpet, some wallpaper, and new trim. Cap it off with a guided bomb or some Hellfire missiles, and I call that feng shui.

that make up a noose. That report is troubling. Especially so since no one in Washington is planning on doing anything about it.

Per The Weekly Standard, after Obama’s Cairo speech he was supposed to have a roundtable with 8 member of the regional media.

Two Arab journalists bolted when they learned they would be sharing table space with a Jewish journalist.

While Obama’s generic approval rating has been consistenly in the low 60s, the polling for his specific policy proposals have been right around break even, with people beginning to voice consistent concern about his spending and the dangers of too much government intervention.

His overall approval is more a measure of his “likeability” and charisma. I’m not a fan of the guy, but he does present himself in an appealing manner, even when I think he’s being less than forthright.

But sooner or later, the overall rating vs the policy polling was going to have to come into balance.

That is it folks, we conservatives are emotion driven with no logic capability to accept homosexuals. I can suggest that disgust by Conservatives is a keen sense of survival to avoid behavior that can be destructive. Our disgust is also important for maintenance of culture and structure while the acceptance of non-harmful behavior leads to pedophillia and beastiality or worse.

Keep in mind that this is a small sample of people that has led the study coordinator Bizzaro or Pizzaro both descriptions are appropriate that Conservatives some how lack in comparison to there liberal counterparts. Also this guy is from Cornell and as a specialist I would not hire any one from that University in my field. To many have come to work for me from that college and have shown little aptitude for problem solving or independent thinking.

…Obama is putting his successors to the office of POTUS in great danger. He is digging a diplomatic hole so big that any future POTUS won’t be able to easily say, “Well, President Obama didn’t really mean that. He only represents the opinion of A QUARTER of our population…” and so on.

On my most recent tour in Iraq, the number one conern was the distribution of reliable electricity. For a country that has billions of barrels of oil, it hasn’t figured out one of the most basic infrastructure problems (and I’m not talking about their sewage issues). An Iraqi in air conditioning is a happy Iraqi!

has encouraged me on many mornings, and I have long awaited today’s tie.

Don’t think that publishers and editors–that is, those not motivated primarily by principle–aren’t watching that rating with growing interest, either. When a non-media-darling such as President Bush lost approval, there was little concern that the inevitable reflection in the media would motivate him very much, but with the current President, I’m quite hopeful that his desperate need for approval could make him start saying some very strange things if the media gets increasingly worried about the cbr of their symbiotic relationship with him.

Thanks for putting this up.
