The Wrong Party at the Wrong Time Driving the Wrong Bus

Cross posted by request-Snooper

I give you the Democratic Party. Please. Take them. They are all yours. I don't recognize them any longer as a viable party let alone a viable source for a.n.s.w.e.r.s. Never before in the history of this nation; all 236 years of it, has there been such a shallow minded and a fettered gang of lucid drivel oozing from the mind-set of an American governing body, such as the once GREAT Democratic Party. Never. Ever.

The Republican Party ain't much better but at least there are still those that remain that give a damn about this country and are not the power-mongering, jealousy-ridden and easily led by the short-hairs ingrates such has occupied the Democratic Party. Those that are in bed with the Democratic Leadership might as well jump ship...their days are numbered in the Republican Party. And THAT you can take to the bank...with interest.

I have been reading a plethora of blogs today. I have been reading ALL of the once Main Stream Media, now the Lame Stream and Passe Media. I have been reading the way out there in the outer reaches of space left-handed moonbat rags. I have been reading the way out there in the outer reaches of space right-handed freak-show rags. And, as Spree said earlier today in a comment board, "LOLOL, today has been chalk full of idiocy in the news, hasn't it?"

Yes. It has. I even watched CSPAN for a while and had to turn it off...I ran out of air bullets (I'm going to have get some more of that ammo). Fox News was a joke and many other "news" groups were equally staffed by inept concierges of moonbattiness. What has happened to by-God HONESTY? Personal Integrity? Professional Integrity? What is with the sly looks into the cameras and the gaudy showmanship? I don't watch the news to be entertained. Do you?

And why do people park in driveways and drive on parkways? Who decided that?

I left the safety of my Death Chair and strolled into my domain...The Garage. I have a VERY clean garage. It wasn't clean enough. I turned on the "didio" and listened to that evil Talk Radio as I commenced making a mess of my perfectly clean garage...the three cats looking at me like I had lost my marbles. Evidently, I messed up their entire existence but they hung around in earnest curiosity as I guffawed now and again and spit nails the rest of the time.

There are some really odd people in this world and I have decided that most of them stroll the Halls of CONgress roaming around seeking those of whom they may devour. We have the RINO of The Bridge Leading To Nowhere in Alaska getting busted for being a egotistical charlatan right on down to the Freezer Man.

We have the reddest-faced Mutant Murtha the Toad that has just GOT to be messing in his drawers. He reminds me of that British cartoon of forest creatures and the key character was a toad. That is Murtha. A pompous, egotistical baboon. I sure hope he gets what is coming to him and I hope it is a United States Marine that does the deal.

We have Reid The War Is Lost In Spite of the Plethora of Good News Via Once Staunch Critics of The War moron sinking ever lower into obscurity and irrelevance as each day passes. Yet he maintains that ignorance stance and beleaguered stature and thinks he is the cat's meow. I will venture a guess here that if Reid were to sit down in my garage, my three cats would commence to bury him; the turd that he is.

We have a People's Rep Kansas Rep. Nancy Boyda stepping out of a hearing room last week while a retired Army general testified about U.S. progress in Iraq. And I quote;

“There was only so much that you could take until we in fact had to leave the room for a while,” Boyda said after she returned, according to a transcript of the hearing. “So I think I am back and maybe can articulate some things — after so much of the frustration of having to listen to what we listened to.”

Yes, Sir. That's my baby. No, Sir. I don't mean maybe.............moron. Boy does SHE have some "splainin" to do, eh? How in the HELL do these people get elected?

Others walked out as well but I shant list them. If you need to know, go find out. I am not in the mood.

We have Hillary saying she wants to develop "re-education camps" for public servants. What is that all about?

We have theoretically very highly educated people running for public office that won't debate on Fox News (even though Big Man donates to Hillary's campaign) but they will blow bubbles in the bathtub to drool over the Kos Kids.

We have John effing Kerry that said in an interview not all that long ago that there were NO killing fields in Cambodia, now being called on the carpet as a material witness by a fellow being charged with crimes against humanity than ran the "torture club" in Cambodia after he and his ilk lied to the American People and thousands upon thousands upon thousands died. There's something to brag about to Queen Heinz, eh? (By the way, there are absolutely ZERO Heinz products allowed in my household...NONE.)

While our allies in the GWOT decry, "Don't go!", we have GOP members wanting to rebrand retreat. WTFO?

Out of ALL the articles I read today...not blog articles...but hired writer's stuff, this one impressed me the mostest.

You'll see why if you read on.

Thanks for sharing.

The Wrong Party

Sen. Joseph Lieberman of Connecticut may officially be an independent after losing his party's nomination to a well-financed anti-war challenger last year, but there's no doubting his heart belongs to the Democratic Party.

In an interview with Washington's Hill magazine this week, Lieberman lamented that after the party's "most important and successful times" of fighting Nazism and communism last century, there is now "a very strong group within the party that I think doesn't take the threat of Islamist terrorism seriously enough."

Clyburn sees a big "problem."

Some Democrats in Congress, he noted, oppose a strong stance against the Islamofascists "because anything President Bush is for, they'll be against, and that's wrong."

Just how wrong was illustrated by James Clyburn of South Carolina, the Democrats' chief vote counter in the House. In a Washington Post interview Monday, he envisioned it being "a real big problem for us" if the commander of U.S. forces in Iraq, Gen. David Petraeus, presents Congress with a positive report of progress in September, which seems increasingly likely as sectarian violence drops. House Democrats could be fractured, making it harder to mandate a pullout, Clyburn repined.

When your country's winning a war is "a real big problem" for you, it's time to take stock of exactly what your party stands for.

Lieberman called Democratic leaders "naive in thinking we can somehow defeat this enemy with talk, or they're simply hesitant to use American power, including military power."

Echoing the late Sen. Henry "Scoop" Jackson of Washington, Lieberman pointed to the "great tradition in our history of partisanship generally receding when it comes to foreign policy. But for the moment we've lost that."

Jackson, a legendary figure from a Democratic Party that is no more, liked to say that on national security, "the best politics is no politics." He was chairman of the Democratic National Committee, was considered for running mate by JFK in 1960 and ran for his party's presidential nomination in 1972 and 1976.

His prescience on the war on terror was, in retrospect, nothing short of astonishing. Before 1980, Jackson was warning, "I believe that the ultimate but seldom-stated goal of these terrorists is to destroy the very fabric of democracy. I believe that it is both wrong and foolhardy for any democratic state to consider international terrorism to be someone else's problem."

Like Lieberman today, Jackson became an outcast in his own party. But just as history has vindicated Jackson's uncompromising stance against the Soviet Union, it will prove Lieberman right and his party colleagues misguided on the war on terror.

All the signs are that we have a chance to win in Iraq and prevent large-scale genocide. Yet rather than going all-out to win there, most Democrats in Congress are going all-out to win in Washington against Bush; they're dying to see him blamed for a failed war. And instead of recognizing the historic threat posed by a nuclear-armed Iran, they pretend that talk can be used as an effective weapon against an Islamofascist madman.

The sadness that Lieberman feels for his beloved party gone awry would surely be shared by Scoop Jackson, not to mention Presidents Franklin Roosevelt and Harry Truman — just as it is by the millions of patriotic Democrats all across this land.

Had enough? Me neither. Read on.

It's all a kerfuffle.

Winston Churchill Quotes

A prisoner of war is a man who tries to kill you and fails, and then asks you not to kill him.
Although personally I am quite content with existing explosives, I feel we must not stand in the path of improvement.
Although prepared for martyrdom, I preferred that it be postponed.
Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference.
Battles are won by slaughter and maneuver. The greater the general, the more he contributes in maneuver, the less he demands in slaughter.
Danger - if you meet it promptly and without flinching - you will reduce the danger by half. Never run away from anything. Never!
I always seem to get inspiration and renewed vitality by contact with this great novel land of yours which sticks up out of the Atlantic.
I am an optimist. It does not seem too much use being anything else.
I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.
I like a man who grins when he fights.
I was only the servant of my country and had I, at any moment, failed to express her unflinching resolve to fight and conquer, I should at once have been rightly cast aside.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time-a tremendous whack.
In war as in life, it is often necessary when some cherished scheme has failed, to take up the best alternative open, and if so, it is folly not to work for it with all your might.
It is no use saying, 'We are doing our best.' You have got to succeed in doing what is necessary.
Moral of the Work. In war: resolution. In defeat: defiance. In victory: magnanimity. In peace: goodwill.
Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few.
Never, never, never give up.
No folly is more costly than the folly of intolerant idealism.
One ought never to turn one's back on a threatened danger and try to run away from it. If you do that, you will double the danger. But if you meet it promptly and without flinching, you will reduce the danger by half. Never run away from anything. Never!
Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.
The first quality that is needed is audacity.
The nose of the bulldog has been slanted backwards so that he can breathe without letting go.
The truth is incontrovertible, malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end; there it is.
There is no such thing as public opinion. There is only published opinion.
These are not dark days: these are great days - the greatest days our country has ever lived.
They are decided only to be undecided, resolved to be irresolute, adamant for drift, solid for fluidity, all-powerful to be impotent.
True genius resides in the capacity for evaluation of uncertain, hazardous, and conflicting information.
Victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory however long and hard the road may be; for without victory, there is no survival.
War is a game that is played with a smile. If you can't smile, grin. If you can't grin, keep out of the way till you can.
War is mainly a catalogue of blunders.
We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender.
We shall draw from the heart of suffering itself the means of inspiration and survival.
When the eagles are silent the parrots begin to jabber.
When you are winning a war almost everything that happens can be claimed to be right and wise.
You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life.

Ronald Reagan Quotes

"The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they're ignorant: It's just that they know so much that isn't so."
Above all, we must realize that no arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is so formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women. It is a weapon our adversaries in today's world do not have.
All the waste in a year from a nuclear power plant can be stored under a desk.
Approximately 80% of our air pollution stems from hydrocarbons released by vegetation, so let's not go overboard in setting and enforcing tough emission standards from man-made sources
Come here to this gate! Mr. Gorbachev, open this gate! Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!
Concentrated power has always been the enemy of liberty.
Double, no triple, our troubles and we'd still be better off than any other people on earth. It is time that we recognized that ours was, in truth, a noble cause.
Facts are stupid things.
Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.
Freedom prospers when religion is vibrant and the rule of law under God is acknowledged.
Government exists to protect us from each other. Where government has gone beyond its limits is in deciding to protect us from ourselves.
Governments tend not to solve problems, only to rearrange them.
History teaches that war begins when governments believe the price of aggression is cheap.
How can a president not be an actor?
How do you tell a communist? Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It's someone who understands Marx and Lenin.
I have wondered at times what the Ten Commandments would have looked like if Moses had run them through the US Congress.
I will stand on, and continue to use, the figures I have used, because I believe they are correct. Now, I'm not going to deny that you don't now and then slip up on something; no one bats a thousand.
In Israel, free men and women are every day demonstrating the power of courage and faith. Back in 1948 when Israel was founded, pundits claimed the new country could never survive. Today, no one questions that. Israel is a land of stability and democracy in a region of tryanny and unrest.
Let us ask ourselves; "What kind of people do we think we are?".
Man is not free unless government is limited.
My philosophy of life is that if we make up our mind what we are going to make of our lives, then work hard toward that goal, we never lose - somehow we win out.

The United Sates has much to offer the third world war.
There are no easy answers' but there are simple answers. We must have the courage to do what we know is morally right.
To paraphrase Winston Churchill, I did not take the oath I have just taken with the intention of presiding over the dissolution of the world's strongest economy.
Today we did what we had to do. They counted on America to be passive. They counted wrong.
We are never defeated unless we give up on God.
We have the duty to protect the life of an unborn child.
We must reject the idea that every time a law's broken, society is guilty rather than the lawbreaker. It is time to restore the American precept that each individual is accountable for his actions.
We will always remember. We will always be proud. We will always be prepared, so we will always be free.
Within the covers of the Bible are the answers for all the problems men face.
You know, if I listened to Michael Dukakis long enough, I would be convinced we're in an economic downturn and people are homeless and going without food and medical attention and that we've got to do something about the unemployed.
