I haven’t been writing much lately. Mainly because the Democrats still have nothing to say and I always knew what ‘cut and run’ was, and is. Looks as though we’re in for a 2 year cruise of treading water in the manner that Clinton did for eight years.
Haven’t heard anything in the media about ‘the first 100 hours’ of the new Democrat majority congress. 100 hours being long gone now, working 20 hrs/wk it would take them 5 weeks to get to their first 100 hours. So there’s still plenty of time.
The obvious ones are winning the war-on-terror, economic policies like making the tax cut permanent, fixing Social Security, educational policies like allowing school choice via the school voucher program (No child left behind), real tort reform, earmark removal just to name a few.  The party has nothing to say about the issues they just ran on. Oh that’s right, it was ‘Bush sucks.’
“Peace activists” and Cindy (Chavez) Sheehan, go demonstrating at Club Gitmo. They want the detainees to be let go.  Setting terrorists free to continue to kill in their jihad is a peaceful thing? And that makes sense to who?  Useful idiots, that’s who.
Isn’t it amazing how peace activists don’t criticize the terrorists for what they do?Â
I think they should go to Tehran or maybe Gaza, or Sadr City, along with their signs and t-shirts and tell those terrorists that they need to stop suicide bombers and quit tossing rockets into Israel. Also demand that they be tried in International Courts (whatever that is) for crimes against humanity.  And be sure to leave a last will and testament before you leave the United States.
al_Qaida, repulsed from Mogadishu by the Somali government with significant military help from Ethiopia, is hit today by a C-130 gunship. No one has, so far, officially confirmed the report but it is very good to know that it happened.
The Left can now be expected to denounce the attack as a stunt to take some wind out of Nancy Pelosi’s sails, while continuing to deny we’re in a global war.
Who’s fighting a war, and who isn’t? The ’06 campaign was all about the difference between winning in Iraq and leaving before winning. The Right was chastised for calling the Left’s position in Iraq as cut and run. It was unfair because that is not what it was, they said. Matter of fact, even through the election we still didn’t know what their position was. But now we know. Its cut and run.
“Our troops and the American people have already sacrificed a great deal for the future of Iraq,” the letter from Reid and Pelosi said.
 “After nearly four years of combat, tens of thousands of U.S. casualties, and over $300 billion dollars, it is time to bring the war to a close.”
A more clear example cannot be made, that the democrat party does not get in the slightest that the Iraq war is but a front in the war on terror, than their own words.
Be on the lookout for a MSMÂ headline, ‘They do want to cut and run.’Â Just don’t hold your breath.
Mayor Koch had a few good words to say about President Bush concerning the war on terror. He also puts the war in a perspective that is not only true, but, unfortunately, new to those presidential hopefuls on the left.
These dreamers naively believe that if we feed the wolves what they demand, they will go away. But that won’t happen.
Three reservations at Club Gitmo pending, the three are Fazul Abdullah Mohammed, Saleh Ali Saleh Nabhan and Abu Taha al-Sudani, thought to be in Somalia.
Prime Minister Ali Mohamed Gedi said three al-Qaeda suspects wanted in the 1998 bombings of U.S. embassies in east Africa that killed more than 250 people were hiding in Kismayo. The three are Fazul Abdullah Mohammed, Saleh Ali Saleh Nabhan and Abu Taha al-Sudani.
Islamic leaders had vowed to make a stand against Ethiopia, which has one of the largest armies in Africa, or to begin an Iraq-style guerrilla war.
Now that an apparently unofficial cell phone video of Saddam Hussein’s last two minutes of life is on YouTube, it was amusing to hear Wolf Blitzer on his Late Edition show today, wringing his conscience over the release of it. He and the folks at PMSNBC had no problem (after much careful consideration you know) showing our soldiers getting murdered by al Qaeda snipers October 19, 2006.
Ethiopia helps Somalian government by bombing their own airports, including Mogadishu’s. The Islamofascists in Africa haven’t left Somalia. In fact, they have so troubled that government that they sought military help from neighboring Ethiopia. Just a reminder that the war on terror is real, don’t you think?
The New York Times, the intelligence wing of al-Qaeda, has again obtained known classified documents and made them public. Like I said before, there ought to be a law.
