Impeach for Peace Treasonists

Ladies and Gentlemen, it's official. I'm a definite burr under the saddle of some treasonists out there and they let me know it today.

First, the background. There is a very prominent logo here, the Victory Caucus. Our mission statement is this:

1. Deliver the perspectives and news on the war effort which the mainstream media neglects to help the American public understand the nature of our conflict and its true progress.
2. Provide tools and infrastructure to help citizens who are committed to victory organize into a recognized and influential caucus.
3. Identify opportunities for the caucus to act and exert influence on America's leaders and to directly aid and support the men and women or our military

and our belief is this:

--We support victory in the war against radical Islamists. We supported the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq, and we believe victory is necessary in both countries for America's self-defense.
--We believe that the radical regime in Iran, while not representative of the Iranian people, is a menace and that it cannot be allowed to obtain or build nuclear weapons.
--We believe that Hezbollah is a terrorist organization that has killed hundreds of Americans and which waged war against Israel in violation of every law of war this past summer, and will do so again in the future.
--We believe Israel is our ally and friend and deserves the full assistance of the United States in its battle with radical Islamists. We believe that Israel has repeatedly shown its willingness to negotiate a just and lasting peace, but that its enemies do not want peace, but the destruction of Israel.
--We believe that the American military is the finest in the world and indeed in history, well led and superbly trained, and populated at every level by America's best and brightest.
--We support the troops, and those organizations which assist the wounded in their recoveries and support the families of those who sacrificed everything.
--We support leaders who support victory

There are several veterans on this site and several people who have relatives currently serving in our military.

On March 12, 2007, we received word that a particular group, "Impeach for Peace", was going to be present at the anti-war rally in Washington today, March 17, 2007, and who, on March 19, 2007, were going to be meeting with defeatist/treasonist representatives to present their "individually drawn up petitions" calling for Bush's impeachment (there is apparently some codicil in the Constitution that states if enough individuals call for impeachment they can present the petition to representatives who then present it to Congress; I personally haven't yet checked this out).

I engaged in conversation. Two other members of Victory Caucus also engaged. Impeach for Peace had no success in "converting" us to their loony-leftist-liberal treason. I had to break off conversations because I had to catch a plane for a four day legal conference. I ended by inviting these people to Victory Caucus for discussions. To date, however, they haven't had the guts to do so.

Fast forward to today. I received this in my personal mailbox:

This is going out to everyone who posted on the following thread on our news blog:

http://impeachforpeace.org/impeach_bush_blog/?p=479

Just this week we have received confirmation that Valerie Plame was an active agent as confirmed by the current U.S. Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs (commonly: Assistant National Security Advisor) Stephen Hadley himself when she was 'outed'. The potentially treasonous war-time 'outing' of Plame was a concerted, conscious effort by multiple members of the Bush Administration - as Libby Trial testimony, and a graphic submitted to the current Congressional CIA Leak Investigation clearly reveals:

http://impeachforpeace.org/impeach_bush_blog/?p=709

This after four years of incessant Neo-Con loyalist and covert employee ( 'troll' ) chatter that she simply had a desk job and that it was common knowledge that she was CIA 'around town'. Trace back who has been pushing that lie and you can easily see whose loyalty is to party, power and profit over truth, justice and the best interests of our national security.

We at ImpeachforPeace see no coincidence in three forceful Neo-Con supporting voices converged on our blogsite Press Release for today's March on the Pentagon leading up to Monday's visits with members of Congress (emphasis mine).

Nice to know that we are a threat to your lies.

Another lie, as put forth in the same blog by [redacted--my real name] - that Muslims, Iraqis and Iranians are hateful, evil, sinister villains hellbent on the destruction of all things American is also revealed to be a falsehood below:

The myth of Muslim Support for terror

The common enemy is violence and terrorism, not Muslims any more than Christians or Jews.
By Kenneth Ballenï

DEAN ROHRER WASHINGTON -

Those who think that Muslim countries and pro-terrorist attitudes go hand-in-hand might be shocked by new polling research: Americans are more approving of terrorist attacks against civilians than any major Muslim country except for Nigeria.

The survey, conducted in December 2006 by the University of Maryland's prestigious Program on International Public Attitudes, shows that only 46 percent of Americans think that "bombing and other attacks intentionally aimed at civilians" are "never justified," while 24 percent believe these attacks are "often or sometimes justified."

Contrast those numbers with 2006 polling results from the world's most-populous Muslim countries “ Indonesia, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Nigeria. Terror Free Tomorrow, the organization I lead, found that 74 percent of respondents in Indonesia agreed that terrorist attacks are "never justified"; in Pakistan, that figure was 86 percent; in Bangladesh, 81 percent.

Do these findings mean that Americans are closet terrorist sympathizers?

Hardly. Yet, far too often, Americans and other Westerners seem willing to draw that conclusion about Muslims. Public opinion surveys in the United States and Europe show that nearly half of Westerners associate Islam with violence and Muslims with terrorists. Given the many radicals who commit violence in the name of Islam around the world, that's an understandable polling result.

But these stereotypes, affirmed by simplistic media coverage and many radicals themselves, are not supported by the facts “ and they are detrimental to the war on terror. When the West wrongly attributes radical views to all of the world's 1.5 billion Muslims, it perpetuates a myth that has the very real effect of marginalizing critical allies in the war on terror.

Indeed, the far-too-frequent stereotyping of Muslims serves only to reinforce the radical appeal of the small minority of Muslims who peddle hatred of the West and others as authentic religious practice.

Terror Free Tomorrow's 20-plus surveys of Muslim countries in the past two years reveal another surprise: Even among the minority who indicated support for terrorist attacks and Osama bin Laden, most overwhelmingly approved of specific American actions in their own countries. For example, 71 percent of bin Laden supporters in Indonesia and 79 percent in Pakistan said they thought more favorably of the United States as a result of American humanitarian assistance in their countries not exactly the profile of hard-core terrorist sympathizers. For most people, their professed support of terrorism/ bin Laden can be more accurately characterized as a kind of "protest vote" against current US foreign policies, not as a deeply held religious conviction or even an inherently anti- American or anti- Western view.

In truth, the common enemy is violence and terrorism, not Muslims any more than Christians or Jews. Whether recruits to violent causes join gangs in Los Angeles or terrorist cells in Lahore, the enemy is the violence they exalt.

Our surveys show that not only do Muslims reject terrorism as much if not more than Americans, but even those who are sympathetic to radical ideology can be won over by positive American actions that promote goodwill and offer real hope.

America's goal, in partnership with Muslim public opinion, should be to defeat terrorists by isolating them from their own societies. The most effective policies to achieve that goal are the ones that build on our common humanity. And we can start by recognizing that Muslims throughout the world want peace as much as Americans do.

Kenneth Ballen is founder and president of Terror Free Tomorrow, a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization dedicated to finding effective policies that win popular support away from global terrorists.

Now, keeping in mind I had invited this man to come over to Victory Caucus and engage in truthful conversation, and he simply didn't have the balls to do so, here is my response to him:

Mikael,

You may twist my words to suit your purpose; that's okay. You may even misquote me and name call and that's okay. However, if you were honest with yourself, you will recall I invited you to join us at www.VictoryCaucus.com and join the conversations. You haven't done so. To me, that shows an extreme lack of courage and an extreme bias on your part, though you stated you wished for give and take conversation on your site. If you had half the courage you purport to have, you would have visited and you would have seen that we indeed endorse Muslims who have escaped the horror of the terrorists and are very vocal about what they've seen, what they've experienced, even what they've done and turned away from.

Now, while I may be a Bush supporter, that doesn't mean I'm not thoroughly discouraged with several things that have transpired. No one walks on water and that includes our president. However, I feel that supporting our CIC in time of war is paramount or the wrong message is sent to the very people we wish to take out of the game and that is the terrorists. It emboldens them and encourages them. And, I do feel that Bush has a much bigger set of cajones on him than the beloved favorite of the liberals, and that's Clinton. At least Bush has the courage to confront the terrorists while Clinton ran. Further, Bush hasn't committed perjury and Clinton did. Regardless of what that perjury pertained to (in his case, sex), it's still a crime and he was impeached for it.

You didn't ask, you assumed. And you conveniently twist the Libby hearings to suit your purposes...the real "outer" of Valerie Plane was Armitage. Why aren't you concentrating on that?

Go ahead and play your games. Go ahead and name call and twist. I expect nothing more from you. And like most liberals, when offered a chance at real dialogue on another site, you did just as expected--you hid.

By the way, this is his email address: "Mikael Rudolph" minneapolis@impeachforpeace.org

Among other things, he neglects the fact that Richard Armitage was the true "outer" of Valerie PlameAND THE FACT THAT ARMITAGE ADMITS THIS--it's more convenient to continue the lie the defeatists/treasonists have compounded about Libby; he also neglects to mention her Vanity Fair interview, complete with pictures.

It's amazing how far people will go for their own agendas, even if that means bringing terrorism to our shores. These intellectual gnats don't seem to understand if we lose the war on terror, there will BE NO CONSTITUTION for this country and every right, every freedom we enjoy will disappear. I call that "ostrich syndrome".

Friday Potpourri

Several things that have caught my eye during the week:

Gathering of Eagles in DC tomorrow: http://gatheringofeagles.org/. There's an anti-war rally in DC tomorrow and this is a grass roots effort to protect the memorials while supporting the troops and the job their doing. A rather good article from the Post Chronicle is here: http://b.casalemedia.com/V2/44508/50488/index.html?www.postchronicle.com/inc/pop1.html and from Yahoo (didn't stay up very long, you had to catch it quick): http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070222/ap_on_re_us/protesters_the_wall

Iran has been sanctioned and has decided to pull a "Saddam" in thumbing it's collective nose at the sanctions AND Ahmadinajad has asked to speak at the UN on the day the Security council votes on a new resolution regarding those sanctions: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070316/ap_on_re_mi_ea/iran_nuclear

The Little Red Book of Wisdom hits the shelves (I heard about this book on Hugh Hewitt's show, sounds like a GREAT read): here's where to get it: http://www.thelittleredbookofwisdom.com/

Of course, Hugh's book, "A Mormon in the White House? 10 Things Every American should know about Mitt Romney", has also hit the shelves. Again, sounds like a good read, you can get it at Amazon.

From the Twilight Zone, two Hillary quotes: "...But let me be clear, if George Bush doesn't end this war before he leaves office...when I'm President, I will." (Feb. 17, 2007 Press release, http://www.hillaryclinton.com/news/release/view/?id=1334) and “...remaining vital national security interests in Iraq” that would require a continuing deployment of American troops." (March 14, 2007 NY Times, "Clinton Sees Some Troops Staying in Iraq if She Is Elected", http://www.nytimes.com/2007/03/14/washington/14cnd-clinton.html?_r=3&hp=&oref=slogin&pagewanted=print&oref=slogin&oref=slogin)

So, the question is, WHICH IS IT? I guess she wants us to believe you really CAN have it all, even when it's diametrically opposed.

And finally, from NewsMax.com: Bill Clinton to NY Times: Stop Picking on Hillary (awwwww her wittle feelings are hurt!)--Read about it here: http://www.newsmax.com/archives/ic/2007/3/16/111433.shtml?s=al&promo_code=2F64-1

That's about all for now...If you see anything weird, contradictory or just plain outrageous, let's get it here for all to see!

Let Me Clarify a Few Things

I haven't really gone into this yet, but I will now.

This blog is set up for the sole purpose of constructive dialog, centering on a
VICTORY theme.

I don't want to hear anything about the faults of the conservatives, the president, the true patriots of this country.

I don't want to hear about right wing conspiracy's, how the US is wrong on all fronts, how great the democratically controlled congress is, full of treasonists as it is.

I don't want to hear any nonsense. I don't feel the need for hearing the justifications of the liberals or listening to the hypocritical drivel they can't help themselves from spewing and believing. I don't want to hear how I can't talk about religion, Judeo Christian religious beliefs and then someone tell me how great some wacked out cult like Islam is.

NO WHINING.

If I don't like what you have to say, I'll read it and decide if I'll keep it. I'm the sole arbiter here. If I delete your nonsense and you don't like it, too bad. If you keep it up, I'll simply block you. You're forewarned.

That being said, I will entertain all legitimate ideas and discussions on the issues facing us in the fight for VICTORY. In fact, I welcome ideas and discussions, productive thoughts and ideas on where we go and how we effect change for the better in a non-violent manner.

Just had to get that out there!

How Does the UN Undermine the US?

I don't have any cold, hard facts on this, just my personal opinion. Others are welcome to jump in with their opinions and facts, if you've got 'em.

It seems to me, though, the world expects the US to do all the dirty work. We're expected to bail countries out monetarily, provide food, comfort and aid to those in need, defend those too weak and too small to fend for themselves (I'm talking countries here, like say, France). And we do it. No one has to ask us, we see it happening and we go and we do.

Why do we do it? Because as the greatest nation on earth, we are the most compassionate, most generous people on earth as well. So, we do while others sit.

And, yet....

On our own soil we are subjected to some of the nastiest filth to come out of anyone's mouths, and this filth is spewed from alleged diplomats. Hate speech. Name calling. You name it, we've been called it and heard it many, many times, often from the very people and countries we're trying to help or who have asked for our help directly. They think nothing of biting the hands that feed them.

And we let them spew their hate. Why? Because we ARE the greatest nation on earth. Because WE believe in freedom of speech. Because WE'RE bigger than they are and can shrug it off.

My personal feelings are, though, why don't we just get rid of these guys? We don't need any more dissension in our country, we certainly don't need anymore aimed at us. If they want to spew their filth, let them. But not from here. And, after their nonsense, if they want to come asking us for something? Why, oh why, can't we tell them no--not just no, but HELL NO? After stabbing us in the back with your nonsense you want us to help you now? HELL NO.

Oh, to dream....but we're bigger than that and I know that. Still, how would we go about getting our country out of the viper's nest? How could we get the viper's nest out of our country?

I'm open to ideas!

It's a Brand New Day!

Let's get to know each other.

I'm Miss Beth, and I believe in VICTORY. That's VICTORY with family, in careers, in love and in war. Specifically, the war in Iraq and the greater war on terror. Unequivocal, complete, resounding VICTORY. I don't believe in failure; failure is not an option.

I tend towards long-windedness, so bear with me.

I moderate a forum board on another site; that site also believes in VICTORY. Some of you may have read my postings and musings there.

While the other site is wonderful for lifting the spirits in the greater war as well as ideas flying thick and heavy for ideas on how to replace defeatist representatives and getting through America's heads the notion that VICTORY is good and moral for this country, there are other areas that contribute to VICTORY as well; and we can discuss them here. Some of those subjects are getting our beloved country OUT of the United Nations and getting the United Nations OUT of our beloved country. Immigration and border control are viable issues here as well.

Shutting down "non-issues" and how to do just that (taking the wind out of the sails of the left) is great, too. Some "non-issues" I refer to are people exercising their rights to free speech, regardless of who they are or what position they hold (i.e., Gen. Pace); people exercising their freedom of religion (holiday displays, recognizing the reason/purpose of Christmas and Easter); people exercising their rights to run their corporation(s)/businesses the way they wish without government telling them what to do, and OH MY! making a profit doing it.

Political correctness has no place here; neither does the ACLU and it's boneheaded ideas.

I'm a Ronald Reagan conservative--no apologies, the man had it right. ALL of the above are directly or indirectly affected by VICTORY.

You see, without VICTORY, we don't have freedom of speech. We don't have freedom of religion. We don't have the obligation to vote. We don't have the freedom to practice our own particular faith. We don't have the right to run our businesses the way we wish. We lose the very essence of what it means to be FREE, to be AMERICAN. We lose it all.

VICTORY is the ONLY way. No compromise; no negotiation; no apology.

Miss Beth
