“These Despicable Republicans…”

I just listened again to kerry’s screed…… he said that what he said (on tape) wasn’t really what he said, and that this was just another campaign trick by “these despicable Republicans…”

John, John, John. Active duty military personnel are not allowed to speak out politically. You know that, and yet you denigrate their intelligence, knowing full well that they can’t say anything back. You’re a coward, John.
But now, you think you can get away with attacking those of us who can speak up, criticize, and hold you accountable? Well, you’re not only a coward, but a fool as well.

Words mean things, John. Here’s how the dictionary defines “despicable”

: deserving to be despised : so worthless or obnoxious as to rouse moral indignation <despicable behavior>

Down South, we have a term to describe the kind of language you have used toward your critics. We call them “Fighting Words”. You care to back them up with more than your wife’s money? No, I didn’t think so……

We will see just how badly you’ve stepped in it, John. The canary in the coalmine will be when you see Bill Clinton climbing in front of the cameras to denounce yet another vast right wing conspiracy. That will mean that the left is going on full alert, trying to stave off yet another election defeat. But, it won’t be enough. And you, John Kerry, will be known forever as the man who snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. Heh. Sweet.

CU Next Tuesday, SUCKAA

You can tell a lot about a person by the friends he keeps. Birds of a feather, and all of that.

I think there’s something similar to be learned by looking at their enemies. Two stories in the news today give us a good take on Dick Cheney. You either love the guy, or hate him with a passion. First is a story from the NYPost.

“Rep. Charles Rangel yesterday blasted Dick Cheney as a “son of a bitch” after the vice president said the Harlem lawmaker would raise taxes and destroy the economy if Democrats take control of the House.”

Heh. Let us not forget that Rangel has promised to do the country the great favor of leaving office if his democrat party fails to take control of the Congress in next week’s elections. Just in case Rangel has forgotten, I plan on reminding him as loudly and as often as necessary.

The second story is from BBC News. “US Vice-President Dick Cheney has said that insurgents in Iraq have increased their attacks in order to influence the upcoming US mid-term elections.”

I expect more of this as the terrorists have learned that they can count on reliable media outlets like al-Jazeera and CNN to “give them a fair shake.”

One more week folks. Hope you have your game face on.

Update at 13:50: I just listened to kerry defend his remarks denigrating the intelligence of the US Armed Services — “It’s Bush’s Fault. It’s Cheney’s Fault. It’s Rumsfeld’s Fault. It’s Rush Limbaugh’s Fault.”

Never once did he apologize.

This liar actually said that if anyone thought that he would do anything that would ever do anything that would harm the troops, then they were” just crazy “.   And then, in a style reminiscent of Genghis Khan, he went on to blast the Republicans for actually having the temerity to hold him accountable for remarks which, incidentally,  are on Video Tape. Heh.
What an asshole.

Muslim Manifesto

Yesterday, I made the following comment about the true meaning of islam:

Saying that these attitudes do not represent true islam is either a true statement, or it is not. It is, however, not the responsibility of the Western world to learn the meaning of true islam through CAIR-sponsored sensitivity training, or by listening to the pious pronouncements of talking-head taquiya saying that islam is a Religion of Peace™.

Honor killing, intimidation, intifada, riot, murder, mayhem, and the constant seething against a perceived insult or slight, speaks with a volume and intensity that words simply cannot excuse. It is time for the islamic world to “Spring Forward” a millennium, and clean up its act, or face marginalization, if not outright separation, from civilized society.

If this article from Chronwatch had been available yesterday, I would have included a link. Just as well. This is a significant read. Listen to Alan Caruba: “The next time anyone tells you that Islam preaches tolerance or peace, think again.”

Plus, I’ll be tagging those same authors that I pinged in yesterday’s rape-sheik post, just in case you missed them.

Also, FYI, Chronwatch provides a pdf link to the 32 page “Muslim Manifesto”. It follows here…

Experts crack cancer ‘gene codes’

How big is this?

US scientists have cracked the entire genetic code of breast and colon cancers, offering new treatment hopes.

The genetic map shows that nearly 200 mutated genes, most previously unknown, help tumours emerge, grow and spread….

Each individual tumour appeared to have a different genetic blueprint, which could explain why cancers can behave very differently from person to person, the scientists said.

“No two patients are identical,” co-author Dr Victor Velculescu explained.

Scientists hope to be able to tailor plans for preventing or treating cancer to each person’s individual genetic profile Ed Yong of Cancer Research UK

Now researchers will study how these mutations occur in breast and colon cancers.

Previous cancer gene discoveries have already led to successful detection and treatment strategies.

Scientific discoveries and medical breakthroughs are happening at an unprecedented pace.
We do, indeed live in interesting times.

Daylight Savings Millennium

As Americans “fall back” in their biannual hourly Daylight Savings time adjustment, muslim women in Australia are hoping for a much longer and more permanent adjustment in the misogynous attitudes as characterized by a Ramadan sermon delivered at the Lakemba mosque near Bankstown, Australia.

The Australian last week revealed that in a sermon last month, Sheik Taj al-Din al-Hilaly blamed the rape victim for being raped, and likened immodestly dressed women to “meat” that attracted voracious predators.

“I am not fresh meat; he should not compare girls to meat,” said one young Muslim woman. “It was totally unacceptable and I am embarrassed by him,” said another. Yet another described him as “ignorant, unprofessional, unacceptable”.

Another speaker said:

“No matter what colour or creed, it is just not right. I think the majority of Muslim women would feel this way, it would be unimaginable for them to support him. Being a woman, how could you support that view?”

She said that as an educator she taught children they needed to be responsible for their actions. “This is what a leader should be saying to his male followers, that they should be responsible for their actions.”

Saying that these attitudes do not represent true islam is either a true statement, or it is not. It is, however, not the responsibility of the Western world to learn the meaning of true islam through CAIR-sponsored sensitivity training, or by listening to the pious pronouncements of talking-head taquiya saying that islam is a Religion of Peace™.

Honor killing, intimidation, intifada, riot, murder, mayhem, and the constant seething against a perceived insult or slight, speaks with a volume and intensity that words simply cannot excuse. It is time for the islamic world to “Spring Forward” a millennium, and clean up its act, or face marginalization, if not outright separation, from civilized society.

KGB-Kennedy Collaboration is “breathtaking”

An editorial in The Washington Times covers much of our previous discussion of the 1980’s treachery of two sitting US Senators: John Tunney and Edward Kennedy.

Even in a jaded world, it is breathtaking to discover a U.S. senator — brother of a former president — actively and secretly collaborating with Soviet leaders in an attempt to undermine the president of the United States’ nuclear defense policy during the height of the cold war.

Much of this information has been in the public arena for several years, as discussed at American Thinker, and today at Power Line.

No great surprise to El Nuko.

I mean, I’m glad to see Edward Kennedy get a little comeuppance in the national press, but to feign surprise is a little much. He’s been getting away with this kind of stuff for years, and this story has been out there since 2003.

Kevin Mooney draws some much needed attention to this matter, as outlined in Paul Kengor’s book, The Crusader: Ronald Reagan and the Fall of Communism.

NewsFlash: That sound you hear in the distance isn’t thunder. It is the sound of millions of angry elephants, stampeding toward the ballot box from the heart of Jesusland.

The green, green grass of home….

Here in the Welsh valleys there is a saying, “if you can’t see the hills it is raining, if you can see the hills, it’ll be raining soon”. Such is the price we pay for living on a west facing coastal belt. The up side is that the green hues of the South Wales countryside in spring and summer are lush and saturated beyond expectation. At such times it takes the breath away to stand on this hinterland to the Brecon Beacons and view the fields and forests below with the mountainous wilderness rising to heights in the middle distance. The vista seen bathed in sunlight is otherworldly. At other times the lower levels are covered with rolling mists. It looks like a mythical floating world.

This is the land where the merlin flies, a small swift raptor that graces us in the winter. Its darting low-level flight is as exciting to humans as it is deadly to the small prey it targets. Here is the home of the peregrine, red kite and kestrel.

It is hard to stand on these rugged escarpments, consider the magnificent view, and have a political thought. Why come down from these glorious heights? Yet it’s here the realities of today will cut deepest tomorrow.

This week on Fox News Mark Steyn simply shrugged Europe away as lost to Islam. He may well be right, he so often is. Remember, it’s the demography stupid. Islam is on the rise and we are on the wane. We are enfeebled by a combination of low birth rates and unrealistic expectations of the role of rationality in the human condition. We continue in the collective delusion that if only we could properly educate the world we would not have to be defended by the gun and warship. It’s the millennium equivalent to buying the world a coke and teaching it to sing in love and harmony.

That’s why Europe distrusts the USA. America has the nerve to look reality in the face and call it by its name. In truth we have been defended by American might for too long. America pays the bills; your good soldiers pay in blood for our defences. Meanwhile we can enjoy the comfort and luxury of the café culture ‘peace dividend’ and curse the yanks for their ‘gung ho’ attitude to world dictators. What stupid president would talk of an ‘axis of evil’? What foolish country would visit Islamic extremism on our heads by invading Afghanistan and Iraq?

God help us if we cannot see who our friends are in these troubled times.

Standing here on these ancient hills these thoughts seems so remote. But one day if Steyn is right my children or (by God’s grace) grandchildren will no longer be able to stand here in freedom. Unless we wake up from the fool’s paradise we now inhabit and get the backbone to defend the freedoms we blithely take for granted, the future is under a crescent moon. This land will go through a dark night of fascist oppression or at best a baptism of blood.

Have we got the nerve, have we got the resolve to take the steps to prove Mark Steyn wrong? The Jury is still out on that one and it won’t be making up its mind any time soon. Anyway aren’t we locked into a conundrum in Europe? Isn’t what we seek to preserve the very decedent culture that is killing us slowly with its charmed song of eternal peace and prosperity?

But well heck- just look at that! Too late!

You really should have seen that merlin take a linnet in mid flight….

Wolf’s Blitzed

(hat tip JimF9)

Lynne Cheney gives Wolf Blitzer a lesson in tv journalism….

“Right, but what is CNN doing? Running terrorist tape of terrorists shooting Americans. I mean, I thought [Rep.] Duncan Hunter asked you a very good question, and you didn’t answer it. Do you want us to win?”

Almost reminded me of Clint Eastwood saying, “Do you feel lucky? Well do you, Punk?”

Ahhh. Loved it. Great way to start the weekend.
Have a good’un folks.

Free Cuc Foshee

Vietnam has been given the go-ahead to join the World Trade Organization, and could be installed as the 150th member next month. President Bush is also scheduled to visit the country next month.

Vietnam continues to hold Mrs. Cuc Foshee, “an ailing 58-year-old Florida woman who has been held in a Vietnamese prison for more than a year on terrorism suspicions is threatening to derail the president’s plans.

The case against Thong Nguyen “Cuc” Foshee highlights both Vietnam’s human rights record and the lingering passions of former refugees for the country they fled three decades ago. It also exposes the tension between the administration’s dual efforts to promote business and foster democracy.

Foshee, a prominent Republican supporter of Bush from Orlando, was seized by Vietnamese authorities in September 2005, a day after she arrived to attend the wedding of a nephew, according to her family.”…

“The case is “an obstacle to getting the trade package forward,” said a senior State Department official. Rice has received assurances from Foreign Minister Pham Gia Khiem that he understands how important the case is and will work to resolve it, the official said.”

Thanks John, another great piece. And, good luck, Liz, we’re hoping for good news, and soon. We echo your call to President Bush: “Please Mr. President, Bring Mrs. Foshee Home.”

The Gathering Storm

Just got a ping from Freeper bitt. The full text of Rick Santorum’s speech, “The Gathering Storm” had been posted from a primary document at National Review Online.

There are two types of people in America, and it’s not Left or Right, Liberal or Conservative, Republican or Democrat. With regards to the critical issue of National Securty, it is simply this: There are those who get it, and there are those who don’t get it. I don’t blame Democrats for being weak on National Security. They don’t get it. They really don’t. The responsibility is with those of us who do get it, to not allow this issue to be neglected. Even now, as mid term elections just over a week away, the attention of a large part of the electorate is caught up in the distraction-of-the-day news cycle.

I’m tired of Mike Fox, Mark Foley, polls, negative news stories, and anything that allows us to become distracted, discouraged, and apathetic. Santorum’s speech brings a sharp focus on the true threat facing our country. I had intended to excerpt a few paragraphs, but excerpts just don’t do it justice. If you truly “get it” on National Security, then you need to take a few minutes and READ IT ALL.

It’s that good.

Fence Bill and Free Nacho

President Bush is scheduled to sign the Secure Border Fence Act today. AP writer Deb Reichman leads her report with the political implications of the bill.

WASHINGTON (AP) – When President Bush signs a bill authorizing 700 miles of new fencing along the U.S.-Mexico border Thursday, he’ll give GOP candidates a pre-election platform for asserting they’re tough on illegal immigration. Yet the centerpiece of his immigration policy, a guest worker program, remains stalled in Congress.

Securing our nation’s borders is the right thing to do.
Furthermore, protecting the men and women who risk their lives to secure the border against drug dealers, smugglers, and ‘coyotes’ is equally important. This seems like common sense to me, but it is nowhere to be found in the case of Border Agent Ignacio “Nacho” Ramos, and Agent Jose Alonso Compean.

In a month that has seen outrageous sentencing from the judicary, Agents Ramos and Compean were convicted and sentenced to 11 and 12 years respectively for violating the civil rights of a drug smuggler!!

Yes, You Read That Correctly. The agents were arrested, tried, convicted, and given a draconian sentence for shooting an armed, fleeing drug smuggler who also won a civil judgement against the United States for $5 million

After the trial, three jurors gave sworn statements that they felt pressure to convict, not understanding a hung jury was possible. Attorneys for the agents sought a new trial before the sentencing, but their request was denied.

Mr. President–You have the power to commute these outrageous sentences, and to grant Agents Ramos and Compean an immediate pardon. Please do it today! While you are signing the fence bill, announce your support for the agents who defend the border. It is the right thing to do.
