					<description>The Democratic party that I grew up with doesn't exist anymore. I remember as a kid watching both conventions and the only difference between the two was in the personality of the candidates. There was absolutely no question that either party candidate would do a good job for the country and were as Red White And Blue as our flag.

Not so anymore. While there are some Dems left that I just described, they are the minority. 

In '08 the vote for POTUS will come down to a vote for traitors or a vote for patriots. That's how I see it.

With the exception of that neo-conartist Rhue Paul, I'll take ANY Republican POTUS candidate over ANY Demogogue candidate for POTUS.

And a vote for HRC would require a willing suspension of disbelief or a complete lack of common sense in order for me to vote for her.

I wonder if HRC smokes cigars.....hmmmmm...       :mrgreen:</description>

					<description>Good Article.

It is despicable the way the left has treated Petraeus, and even more disgusting is the liberal democrats in Washington who refuse to pony up to their new masters (MoveOn.org) and let them know that they were more than out-of-line with that ad in the NY Times.

Really looks to me like the liberal left in this country is hanging itself. The Silent Majority will speak in November 2008.</description>

					<description>Right on John!

Among my circle of friends we have an acronym for this bunch of American haters that want to see America retreat in defeat from the battle not only in Iraq but on the global stage as the only superpower that carries both arrows and an olive branch in her talons … we call them .. AQA = al-Qaeda in America.</description>

					<description>"I guess I will just be forced to willingly suspend my own disbelief when a liberal tells me that they “Support the Troops”!!"

Right on... I get in arguments with these people and I always end by asking if they support the troops. When they say yes I remind them of what I am and ask them, then why does my opinion not matter? If you support those in the military then you should take my opinion in high regard because I happen to be in it. They support the one group of people that they don't allow to have a voice.</description>

					<description>Pat....I heard that in the movie "Basic Instict", Sharon Stone's character, while being grilled by the police, said those exact words "willing suspension of disbelief"...meaning that the person giving the argument can put up such a defense as to believe it themselves, even if it's not true...so basically what Clinton did was to call our General a liar, that he made up something he convinced himself was true.  So basically Clinton is being Clinton, she wouldn't know the truth ( ask Bill). She's been living in the "willing suspension of disbelief" that makes her think that one day she'll be our next President.  Sorry Sillary, even trying to make it seem like it was all "Bill's" idea on the first Hillary Care scam won't cut it...God Bless Gen. Petraues and all of our hero soldiers abroad.  We love you and respect all that you do.</description>

Now how is it that "Dollard Nation" is always ahead of the power curve as compared to the LMSM. They are always playing catch up?

					<description>Dan that is probably the easiest question I've had to field in quite awhile.  The answer is actually very simple.  We think for ourselves and have an open mind, although the LMSM says that they are the most open minds around (unfortunately you have to have a mind to open it).  Tolerence is preached from the left, but not practiced.  We talk and debate thoughts, while the left only wants to talk about feelings.  
It's is not very har to stay out front when you look at what is ahead of you instead of looking for today's talking points and what I am supposed to believe today.</description>

					<description>Howie:

And how right you are Howie. Tolerance from the left is sophistry at it's finest. The BS artists from the Zinn view of the world continue to play that fiddle while Rome burns in the background. 

And yet there are still those of us left who have not sold their birthright for 30 pieces of silver. 

Great minds...Howie....</description>

					<description>Here is an email I sent to Fox News regarding their interview with Mrs H Clinton:

Dear Fox News Sunday. 

I am writing this to express my opinion of the interview on FNS today of Mrs. Hillary Clinton.

Chris Wallace was too accommodating of the assertions made by Mrs Clinton.  He allowed her to make the blatantly politicized statement that the Bush Administration had “outsourced” the Iranian problem to the Europeans and yet she and her democratic comrades accuse Bush of not doing enough with the Europeans on Iraq.  As always, she is trying to have it both ways.

Speaking of her comrades, she also was not taken to account by Wallace on her evasion of his question regarding the MoveOn.Org attack on Gen Petraeus.  Instead of answering she drew the comparison of this attack with that in the last election on John Kerry.  There is no comparison of either circumstance or substance.  To paraphrase the words of a one time democratic vice presidential candidate, who fortunately lost his election, “John Kerry is very definitely no David Petraeus.”

Lastly, her failure to condemn Columbia University for allowing Ahmadinejad to take advantage of the reputation of an American university to spread his propaganda is reprehensible.  There is no way that Columbia can claim it is upholding the principle of freedom of speech when that same university did not have the decency to punish, let alone stop, stop the radical protestors who disrupted the speech by Jim Gilchrist, the head of the Minutemen Project.  It amazes me that they are more prepared to let speak the terrorist leader of a terrorist- supporting nation that wants the US removed from the world stage (“Death to the United States” being on signs as he left Iran for the UN)  than an American Citizen who is trying to protect this country.  Shame on Columbia!

					<description>Paul is the perfect candidate for 1908 not 2008.  I agree with most of his platform domestically.  Smaller government, less intrusion, more power back to the states, and simple taxation.  The problem is his view of the world and where our interest actually are.  I am all for no more Bosnia's or Somalia's of the 1990's had no strategic interests.  
And until we have hydrogen/electric cars,our plane/train/trucks are replaced with a non-petroleum mode of transporting people and goods I am for the spilling of blood for oil.  It is in our interests to keep our economy running.  
And for the rest of the world, including Europe, you are either with us or against us.  If you work against us or our friends we do not help you in any way.  No money from foreign aid, no disaster relief, and when your country is attacked you are on your own!!!!</description>
