Okay, not much today - but read Charles Krauthammer today on the truth about the "Moral Values" vote myth. (Remember I wrote this.)

Daily Trek Thursday 11/11/04

On this Veteran's Day I want to thank all of the men and women who have served our country throughout it's history. In addition I wish to thank the forgotten family members of those who have served. There is nothing greater one can give then the service to his country. I personally thank each one of you!

Not much to say today - been awaiting a new batch of injectible meds that should have been here last week - been out since Friday and it makes it rough without it.
But the Key issue in today's trek:

Yassar Arafat, the man who choose the path of terror over the path of peace, has passed away. (See Drudge Report for complete coverage)

The man who is known as the founder of the modern terrorist way of life was also primarily responsible for the Horrible Plight of the people now known as Palestinians.

When Jordan, Syria, and Egypt controlled the territories of Gaza and The West Bank there was no Palestinian outcry. When they attempted the destruction of the state of Israel and lost.......Then and only then did the cry come out that these people had to be kept in refugee camps that were barely habitable.

And what did Arafat do about it? He sent the sons of these innocents to their deaths. He attacked Israel in the most horrific manner and when offered nearly everything he asked for to stop the bloodshed he refused choosing rather the path of terror over the path of peace.

This is what he should be known for. The claim that he was a freedom fighter who became a statesman is beyond wishful thinking but is reflective of the lengths to which the Islamic world will delude itself, thus allowing them to justify the murder of innocent men, women, and children by terrorists.

On to our own delusional population did anyone else hear Nancy Pelosi announce that instead of trying to figure out why the Democrats went off the tracks and fix it the Democratic Leadership Council were meeting to "save civilization as we know it!" The key is that America was NEVER where Nancy and her Moore-on friends saw it! They have managed to delude themselves via the liberal cocoon they lived.

I know it is early, but the first signs are not good for the Democrats. Their delusion prevents any retrospective look at themselves - they believe it is the majority of America that is just stupid and has to change. Rather they would do well to see where they went off the deep end!

Hopefully more tomorrow, the meds should be here!
DKK

More: Captains Quarters puts Yassar in perspective this way:

For all the crimes he committed and people he terrorized, the most ironic legacy Arafat left was the utter poverty and degradation he rained onto his own people -- while he and his wife lived it up on their money. And now the people of the West Bank will send him off with a hero's funeral, compounding the irony.

BTW, here is the full quote from Pelosi World:

What we hope to accomplish this afternoon at the meeting with Senator Kerry and Senator Reid is saving civilization as we know it today, as we go into the next election.

Daily Trek Monday 110804

Okay, now P-Diddy (Formerly Puff Daddy!) has admitted he was wrong with part of his Vote or Die campaign:

P. Diddy says he got off on the wrong foot when it came to his political endeavors in 2004. If he could do things over again, he wouldn't have yelled for folks to get George W. Bush's "ass out of office."

Now I don't think I would be out of line to say that the problem wasn't with part of the campaign. Rather it started when he first entered politics with the absolutely stupid campaign slogan of "Vote or Die".

I think in 30 years, when he has once again changed his name to something like P - Eee Dee (for which he is taking Lavetra!) he will look back and realize that not only was it a stupid slogan, but that the more he hyped his Vote or Die campaign the more people voted for President Bush - this is one of those Moral/Value issues. The Dem's are trying to make this all a gay issue - but I think the it is more of the rejection of the Hollywood values and a reaffirmation of American Values (see what I said here)

Americans proved what I had said in 1992 - Clinton and the Dems are like my alcoholic Uncle Bill. You might let him watch your house but your sure as hell aren't going to give him the keys to the liquor cabinet! When you are in the middle of the greatest struggle in our generation we need to trust our President to do what is right for America. To support our troops and not stab them in the back when they return. The defeat of Kerry could be the final battle of Vietnam. America could finally heal that wound and put to rest the left's Vietnam hatred of our military. Somehow the way the Dem's have clung to the likes of the Lie-N-Hype Moore-on's I doubt it.

The Trek:

DANEgerous has this great analysis of why the left doesn't get it. The NY Times is the perfect example of a too nuanced outlook on life. I think this is important to note! There has been a drop in crime that has corresponded directly with our increased willingness to punish criminals!!! DUH, but they don't get it.The headline:

Despite Drop in Crime, an Increase in Inmates

Certainly the drop in crime rates is directly associated with keeping criminals locked up.

I'm all for clearing out non-violent lawbreakers who are locked up for victimless crimes... but how hard do you have to try to push the agenda.

Here is the real headline... the one the idiots at the NYTimes simply won't print:

Getting Tough on Crime reduces Crime

Anyone remember hearing this wonderful little story from any of the MSM during the campaign?

Historian Douglas Brinkley, author of a wartime biography of Kerry, cautioned that Kerry’s diary included mention of a meeting with some North Vietnamese terrorists in Paris. Edwards was flabbergasted. “Let me get this straight,” the senator said. “He met with terrorists? Oh, that’s good.”

Newsweek has it now that the election is over!

Tim Blair has this prespective on the election:

BIGGER THAN BRITAIN

• Number of people who voted for Bush: 59,651,262

• Number of people who live in Britain: 59,600,000

Via Quentin George in comments. Oh, I almost forgot:

• Number of dentists in Britain: 31,600

Back on Trek Tonight

Okay, had a bit of a problem with edema over the past few days - serious reaction to something but not sure what. Maybe the stress of the media's attempts to elect Kerry, who knows.

I should have the treks starting back tomorrow! Just random thoughts today.

Mainstream Muck

Get this, the picture below was posted on CNN.com. The file name for the picture...........asshole.jpg, I kid you not (as of 1am central).

EDIT - okay they changed the name, but it was a picture of President and Mrs. Bush!

Interesting isn't it - this underscores the reason for the Democrats loss this year.

(thanks Captains Quarters)

American Morals

The morals issue - thank the radical gays and activist courts for a Bush win is what I keep hearing!

But even deeper then that is the pure and simple moral fact that you don't attack a sitting war time president as a liar and thief!

The moral bankruptcy that the media highlighted by CBS and it's Rathergate fiasco. The comments I made about Moveon and Moore-on and Senator Kerry's attacks on our troops in battle were reflected in the "morals" vote!

When your a Senator you don't obstruct - you take action not fostering inaction! When your a judge you don't legislate from the bench!

Don't get me wrong, the religious right was a key to victory. Anti gay marriage was important but when it comes down to it the morals issue was more a result of the American belief - which we saw in Australia just last month - that it is IMMORAL TO ATTACK YOUR OWN COUNTRY! The American belief that the pledge of allegiance is a good thing and there is right and wrong, black and white! America is what is good in the world and since his days as an activist Kerry has been wrong on these key issues!

Was morals another word for American values and patriotism - I think so!

Kerry Concedes/Bush Accepts

John Kerry finished his presidential campaign with the dignity and grace that he and the Democratic party failed to show during the entire 3 years of the past campaign.

Some are saying if he had shown this during the campaign he might have won - and I have to agree. Had Kerry stopped pandering to the Lie-N-Hype Moore-on wacko left then I believe he could have won Ohio - he still would have lost the popular vote but as we learned (those who didn't remember the Electoral College from their school days) the only vote that mattered was the EC.

By appealing to the far left wacko's of his party he did more to instill the fear that he was not fit to be the President then anything else in the campaign. The Swifites made an impact and planted that seed but Kerry and the Moore-on's watered and put enough bullshit on it to make it grow into a 3.5 million loss for Kerry.

Now, can the Democarts be as gracious as Kerry?

After 2002's house loss they swerved left picking Nancy Blowsme (Pelosi) as their house leader and keeping the greatest obstructionist of the Senate has produced Tom Daschle - who lost - the first time a leader has lost since 1952.

Will they react by pulling even further left or will they realize that they are not in touch with the majority of America. Michael Moore has repeatedly said that the US is a liberal country but he has repeatedly been wrong! He is not the mainstream.

We really are compassionate conservatives!

President Bush gave a gracious acceptance speech reaching out the the left - but not as far as I know they would like! His agenda - the War on Terror, Schools, Social Security could be more then the left can handle.

It was a hard fought victory but the ones that matter always are.

God Bless President Bush, God Bless the gracious John Kerry, God Bless America, God help the terrorists and the Lie-N-Hype Moore-onic traitors!

Election Night - Results and comments

It appears as though President Bush has won the election - and has become the first person since 1988 to get more then 50% of the popular vote.

It hinges on Ohio, but the margin is nearly 150,000 votes - more then in Pennsylvania by the way!

I have got to get to bed now - no trek today at least for the morning. I'll try later.
DKK


Earlier I said:
Hah, too early - I will try to update as the night goes on.

If it means anything the Dow swung from 76 up to 20 down on the rumor that Kerry was ahead in the exit polls. That can't be good for the economy of a Kerry administration.

5:22pm still time to vote - get out there if you haven't!

7:12pm nothing surprising yet - red still red, blue still blue. My nerves are completely on edge though! I haven't been this concerned about something since 9/11 - seriously.

Don't come here for up to date projections! I don't have them. Try Fox News or Drudge.

Election Trek 110204

Today is it - get out and vote everyone!

As I get ready for bed I wonder if I will wake up in an America that is the land of the free and the home of the brave that remembers it is a post 9/11 world.....

Or If I will wake to

The land of the Moore-on's, traitors, crooks and weasles that would do anything to return to the old ways that worked to line their pockets before 9/11 (French/Russian f'n crooks)

As Polipundit put it:

Tomorrow I will be working the polls in Eastern Pennsylvania, and I do not know if I will be back before the votes start coming in after 6:30 on the East Coast.

So here is my final plea:

Do you believe in an America that has the strongest military on the face of the Earth?

Do you believe in an America that wages a relentless campaign against terrorists

Do you believe in an America that holds the sponsors of terrorists responsible for their crimes?

Do you believe in an America that defends itself and does not rely on failed organizations like the United Nations to do the job?

Do you believe in an America that has brought together a large coalition that has brought down the regimes of the Taliban and Saddam Hussein?

Do you believe in an America that has destroyed Facism and Communism and now seeks to vanquish terrorism?

Do you believe in an America where are students receive a quality education?

Do you believe in an America where Americans retain more of their hard-earned money?

Do you believe in an America where children are welcomed into this world?

Do you believe in an America where our respected institutions and symbols are respected?

If you do, then go out tomorrow and vote for President Bush. The fate of the world, of generations yet unborn depends on you. I know you know what to do. I want you to do it. Get out and vote! Get out and encourage others to vote! TODAY IS THE DAY!

LET’S ROLL!

We will see - I get worried but I can only hope I wake to the same America I went to bed in.

This explains my thoughts almost exactly (click on What's at Stake), then there is these from Cox and Forkum

Remember this last one as you enter the voting booth!

Daily Trek Monday 110104

Red State Danger - Blue State Safe! For anyone who bought the Democrats line that Osama either wanted Bush to win or didn't care - a new analysis of the tape, in proper translation context indicates that Osama was threatening those states that vote for Bush! Yep, he indicates that he will be watching the election and those states that vote for Kerry will be safe in the next round of attacks.

As it was stated by Dick Morris on Fox last week - Bush has done such a good job that Osama couldn't send a bomb so he sent a tape! (knock on wood!)

“This message was a warning to every U.S. state separately. When he [Osama Bin Laden] said, ‘Every state will be determining its own security, and will be responsible for its choice,’ it means that any U.S. state that will choose to vote for the white thug Bush as president has chosen to fight us, and we will consider it our enemy, and any state that will vote against Bush has chosen to make peace with us, and we will not characterize it as an enemy. By this characterization, Sheikh Osama wants to drive a wedge in the American body, to weaken it, and he wants to divide the American people itself between enemies of Islam and the Muslims, and those who fight for us, so that he doesn’t treat all American people as if they’re the same.

Oh and in case you missed the 12 minutes of Osama's tape that were edited out and not shown Random Nuclear Strikes has this:

Osama bin Laden doesn't seem nearly so cocky in the unedited version of a videotape aired on al-Jazeera, complaining that the manhunt against him has hampered al Qaeda.

Osama bin Laden's newest tape may have thrust him to the forefront of the presidential election, but what was not seen was the cave-dwelling terror lord talking about the setbacks al Qaeda has faced in recent months.

Officials said that in the 18-minute long tape — of which only six minutes were aired on the al-Jazeera Arab television network in the Middle East on Friday — bin Laden bemoans the recent democratic elections in Afghanistan and the lack of violence involved with it.

On the tape, bin Laden also says his terror organization has been hurt by the U.S. military's unrelenting manhunt for him and his cohorts on the Afghan-Pakistani border.

Osama's brother was asked about the video - here is his reply (GWOT):

It’s the violence. It wasn’t a surprise to know that he was still alive. I always thought that if he was killed, everybody would know it. It seems that he might have seen the Michael Moore movie Fahrenheit 9/11.

Still think that fat fu...nky looking guy isn't a traitor?

And speaking of the media's white glove treatment for Kerry and their abiltiy to do a Lie-N-Hype Moore-on move comes this from LGF:

Here’s the original MSNBC transcript of John Kerry’s interview with Tom Brokaw, dated October 28: MSNBC - Sen. Kerry: Nation ‘is polarized’.

Brokaw: Someone has analyzed the President’s military aptitude tests and yours, and concluded that he has a higher IQ than you do.

Kerry: That’s great. More power. I don’t know how they’ve done it, because my record is not public. So I don’t know where you’re getting that from.

And here’s the more recent version of the same transcript, dated October 31: MSNBC - Kerry: ‘America can do better’.

Notice what has been removed, from a critical passage that has been much noted in the blogosphere:

Brokaw: “Someone has analyzed the president’s military aptitude tests and yours, and concluded that he has a higher IQ than you do.”

Kerry: “That’s great. More power. I don’t know how they’ve done it.”

Wonder why these documents aren't public - could it be that he really did receive a less then honorable discharge for his own traitorous activities as an activist? It sure is a possibility!
We may never know. Check out spoons for unconfirmed story and links - this was in the NY Sun nearly 2 weeks ago - go figure a mainstream paper puts out bad news for Kerry and it is not mentioned anywhere else in the press - what is up with that?

Weekend Trek 10/30 & 10/31

Michael Moore - Lie-N-Hype 9/11: George W. Bush sat there and read My Pet Goat for seven minutes while our nation was under attack.

John F. Kerry: George W. Bush sat there for seven minutes - seven minutes as the planes were flying into our buildings

Osama Bin Laden: We never would have imagined that your Commander in Chief would sit there for seven minutes as 50,000 Americans were under attack.

Now, who you gonna vote for?

John Kerry's career began in 1971 attacking every member of the United States Armed forces including their families here at home leading to the worst treatment of our servicemen in our nations history.

Hopefully John Kerry will end his career with this final attack (pick your poison - the failed in Tora Bora or they let the weapons in Al QaQaa disappear) on every member of the US armed forces!

Who you gonna vote for?

Osama and Kerry - Moore'ons

Osama released a video today sorta endorsing John Kerry but definately endorsing the Lie-N-Hype Moore-on's ideas! When will the looney left understand that bashing our nation gives direct aid and comfort to our enemies! They would BBQ Michael Moore in a hearbeat if he weren't so helpful to them!

Instapundit:

DEPARTMENT OF NONSENSE: So Osama has released a new video in which he harshes on Bush:
"It never occurred to us that the commander in chief of the country (Bush) would leave 50,000 citizens in the two towers to face those horrors alone ... because he thought listening to a
child discussing her goats was more important," bin Laden said, referring to Bush's visit to a school when the attack occurred.
Just goes to show, you get a little nutty when you spend too much time living in a cave.

Seriously, had you heard this anywhere but from the Moore-on's and terrorists!

As Daly Thoughts puts it:

I look at it as very good news for America.
Al Qaeda wanted to influence the Spanish elections, and did so by bombing and mass murder.
Now they want to influence our elections. They did so by releasing a tape.
They would have hit us if they could.

Knock on wood! Remember if they can they will hit us before the election if they think it will defeat Bush!

We'll just have to pray and keep on attacking them on their land rather then waiting for them to hit us here!

Daily Trek Friday 10/29/2004

You may have noticed that the Treks have been focused this week - that is on purpose as these points are important enough that they deserve the days thoughts. Following the election they will return to a review of daily news rundowns. Now here is today's Trek:

"Your taking an illogical premise and proceeding logically to an illogical conclusion." Donald Rumsfeld

This is what the elite left has been doing for years in their intellectual high minded nuance they have managed to completely eliminate any right or wrong from our society. In they process they have eliminated any personal responsibility.

In the War on Terror I couldn't say it any better then Right Wing News did here:

Consider that in just 4 years, Bush took down Afghanistan, a nation that stymied the Soviets for a decade in 2 months, smashed the Taliban & Al-Qaeda's training camps, and helped Afghanistan to have a successful nationwide election earlier this month.

He also crushed Saddam Hussein, who had been sticking in his thumb in our eye since the Gulf War, and that country has elections scheduled for January of next year. (I might add that Saddam attacked our airmen every day as we did the work of the UN)

That's 50 million people freed from tyranny and two enemies of America taken down.

Furthermore, we've rounded up more than 3000 Al-Qaeda operatives world wide and captured 3/4ths of their pre-9/11 leadership. And if Osama Bin Laden wasn't killed at Tora Bora -- which is a big "if" -- he has been hiding in a hut somewhere laying low for almost two years and unable to run day to day operations for Al-Qaeda. That's one of hell of a record.

On top of that, Bush has convinced Libya to get out of the WMD and terrorism business, turned Pakistan from a terror supporter to a terror fighter, broken a nuclear arms ring that had been run out of Pakistan, and he has gotten Russia, China, Japan, and South Korea together to bring North Korea to heel. He has also, amazingly enough, kept Al-Qaeda from hitting us again since 9/11...at least so far. How many people would have predicted that on 9/12/2001?

If that's a record of "incompetence", we should be so lucky as to have another four years of it.

But, you know why people like Sullivan can get away with calling Bush "incompetent" without people laughing at them for saying something so ridiculous?

Because they obsessively focus on minutiae. The press spends weeks examining every detail of relatively unimportant stories like the minor looting that occurred at the Baghdad museum, Abu Ghraib, and these Al-Qaqaa explosives which were almost certainly moved before we ever arrived, while hardly looking at the big picture.

Imagine if the spinmeisters and the press spent as much time incessantly carping about every little thing that went wrong in WW2 as they do about the war on terror? How do you think things would have turned out if the Republicans and the press were all calling the war an unwinnable quagmire a few weeks in and saying a thousand men lost was an unacceptable loss? And in 1941, we didn't have to worry about a Kamikaze or a Nazi sneaking a nuclear weapon into New York or LA and making the city disappear under a mushroom cloud.

As Abraham Lincoln said of Ulysses S. Grant, a man who was criticized for his tactics even he has helped lead the North to victory, "I can't spare this man — he fights". And yes, George Bush may have a position on gay marriage that Andrew Sullivan doesn't care for, but we cannot spare George Bush because "he fights" and he has shown that he can do it exceedingly well...

Make your plans now to vote on Tuesday for someone who will Fight for our nation not someone who will spend their time following the illogical conclusion that the United States are always on the wrong side of every issue. The terrorists do not have valid reasons to murder innocent people.

The United States is not the evil empire! John Kerry was too nuanced to confront evil in the 1980's and based on his "plans" he would find it hard to do so now because it isn't in his nature!
DKK

Daily Trek Thursday 10/28/2004

In 1971 John Kerry became a media hero by attacking the reputations and actions of every soldier who served in Vietnam. In addition he, in all his infinite wisdom, proclaimed that he could do it better and the administration (3 actual administrations, although his attack was primarily on the Republican Nixon Administration) was killing our brave young men for a mistake. Please don't misinterpret this, it was and is his belief that fighting for freedom is never a legitimate reason to go to war (see Gulf War I Kerry vote against authorization despite UN approval). Kerry took these actions because it advanced his personal and ideological goals no matter what the cost!

Despite the fact that he was aware that his actions were based on lies he continued until the US was defeated here at home. The result was the slaughter of millions throughout South East Asia, the prolonging of the suffering of the POW's in Vietnam, the demoralization of our troops, the demoralization of the United States, and the division of the US population.

In 2004 John Kerry has reemerged as a media hero by attacking the reputations and actions of every soldier currently serving in Iraq and elsewhere in the War on Terror. He has advanced the theory that everyone from the President to the lowliest private has not done their jobs in the manner they should have! Proclaiming that he, in all his infinite wisdom could do it better. He has done this to advance his personal and ideological goals no matter what the cost.

In so doing he has emboldened our enemies and a John Kerry victory in the upcoming election could bring about the same type of demoralization of America and her brave troops that led to the slaughter of over 2 1/2 million innocent people in communist Asia.

John Kerry is a member of the intelligence committee and if he had bothered to attend the meetings he would have known that his actions were based on lies. He has jumped upon a story that is falling apart under the light of logic and today we find out that The Russians moved the missing explosives prior to our invasion of Iraq. John Kerry might very likely have known that this was a strong possibility based on the satellite photo's available to him if he attended these committee meetings (his attendance record is less then 25%) . It is also a possibility that he was aware of these facts but decided that the promise of a Kerry Presidency justified the lies.

I need to add that I am on a roll lately - Just days ago I mentioned that it was very possible that the President knew something about this (and WMD, which I mentioned weeks ago) that he was not at liberty to disclose for various military, security, and diplomatic reasons! If John Kerry was aware of the possibility of the Russian involvement in the missing weapons he most likely knew that the President was not able to discuss it. John Kerry chose to use it to advance the attack on this and in so doing he very well may have jeopardized our national security!

Even worse is the fact that John Kerry's answer to all of our problems is the UN and those Old Europe allies that Saddam had in his back pocket!

The President's failure to admit mistakes, as the Lie-N-Hype Moore-on's like to say, could be because he KNOWS he did not make these same mistakes he is being accused of! If this proves to be the case then John Kerry needs to be tried for treason and given the punishment that a guilty verdict guarantees in the constitution.

There are many keys here that give us a look into John Kerry's beliefs, but one of the most disturbing is the fact that it is difficult to tell if he is just so ideologically driven that he believes that the ends, a Kerry Presidency, justify the means, the attacks on our soldiers, President, population, and reputations - THE DEFEAT OF THE US HERE AT HOME.

Either that or he is such an opportunistic Fuck that he would do anything to get what he wants - the Presidency.

What we do know is that President Bush has the interest of the United States as his primary motive for every decision he makes! John Kerry has placed his own interests and the interests of the UN ahead of his own country.
DKK

PS - This may be a rambling mess, but I am very tired right now and wanted to lay out these thoughts while they were fresh.

Wow, what power!

Wow, it worked already:

Caroline Kennedy (via Drudge):

CAROLINE KENNEDY TO BUSH: STOP INVOKING MY FATHER
Wed Oct 27 2004 15:19:01 ET

WASHINGTON, DC *In response to George W. Bush's invocation of prominent Democrats including President John F. Kennedy, Kennedy's daughter Caroline Kennedy Schlossberg issued this statement. "It's hard for me to listen to President Bush invoking my father's memory to attack John Kerry. Senator Kerry has demonstrated his courage and commitment to a stronger America throughout his entire career. President Kennedy inspired and united the country and so will John Kerry. President Bush is doing just the opposite. All of us who revere the strength and resolve of President Kennedy will be supporting John Kerry on Election Day." Developing....

Daily Trek Wednesday 102704

Wednesday's Trek, drive the liberals crazy:

It’s Truman vs. Dewey all over again! I’ve favored that model for a while now:

Personally, I think the 2004 campaign most resembles 1948. Just as Harry Truman had begun to wage the Cold War and formulated the Truman Doctrine, President Bush is waging the War on Terror with the Bush Doctrine. As Truman engaged in nation-building in Europe, Bush is engaged in nation building in the Middle-East. As in 1948, The domestic political opposition is supposedly “energized” and all the talk is about how the president could be defeated. However, the president isn’t afraid to point out his opponent’s flaws (”Give ‘em hell, Harry!“) and wins because people see him as a simple man, but a well-intentioned, trustworthy leader in a historic time.

-- PoliPundit

That's what he thinks - but I had this strange thought last night that will drive the already loonie liberals crazy, see if you can follow me here:

The comparisons between John F. Kennedy and George W. Bush:

• Both men were elected in the closest elections in their century
• Both men believed in personal responsibility
• Both men dramatically lowered taxes which lead to a economic growth
• Both men believed in a strong offense as the best defense to protect the US
• Both men were met with unprecedented threats and challenges to national security
• Both men fought against the bureaucratic structures that were so set in their ways they would sabotage those changes to keep the status quo
• Both men challenged world opinion in bold military steps
• Both men united the world against a common enemy
• Both men upset the apple cart making them hated by various factions

One was assassinated by what the vast majority of the world believe was a conspiracy of the corrupt rich and powerful in an attempt to maintain that wealth and power. They have yet to be identified.

The other has had repeated attempts to assassinate him politically by what could only be called a conspiracy of the corrupt rich and powerful in an attempt to maintain that wealth and power! They are the UN, the IAEA, the media, and the Lie-N-Hype 9/11 Moore-on's!

(I know you can think of more - add them to the Drive Loonie Liberal's Crazy list by clicking on the comments link at the end of this post!)

See what can happen when that apple cart is disturbed! But can you honestly say that the changed underway now - painful to those corrupted - is not for the better just as they were in Kennedy's day?

A HUGE difference between then and now -the Democrats of today and the Republicans of yesterday - is illustrated by the following article by The Washington Times. This story confirms the depths to which the left has sunk.

John Kerry and the Lie-N-Hype Moore-on's have the blood of Americans and Iraqis on their hands! They have actively positioning the Democratic party and the entire left on the side of those who's apple cart was dumped over for political gain! This is nothing short of treason in a time of war!!!

Here are excerpts - read the whole thing!

BAGHDAD — Leaders and supporters of the anti-U.S. insurgency say their attacks in recent weeks have a clear objective: The greater the violence, the greater the chances that President Bush will be defeated on Tuesday and the Americans will go home.
"If the U.S. Army suffered numerous humiliating losses, [Democratic presidential nominee Sen. John] Kerry would emerge as the superman of the American people," said Mohammad Amin Bashar, a leader of the Muslim Scholars Association, a hard-line clerical group that vocally supports the resistance. ...........................

"American elections and Iraq are linked tightly together," he told a Fallujah-based Iraqi reporter. "We've got to work to change the election, and we've done so. With our strikes, we've dragged Bush into the mud."......................

The most pro-Kerry, he said, are the former Saddam Hussein loyalists — Ba'ath Party members and others who think Washington might scale back its ambitions for Iraq if Mr. Kerry wins, allowing them to re-enter civic life. ..........................

"They say there are 1,100 dead soldiers. That means 1,100 families hold grudges against Bush and hate him. There are 6,000 families whose sons were injured who hate Bush and will not re-elect him."

Now, who did you say you wanted to vote for, of course you have to be careful or you may end up getting your windows shot out by the loonie lefties out there so don't tell the pollsters! However when you get in that booth make sure you remember who's apple cart you want to help push!

Just a Point About Securing Iraq

I am sick of hearing about how we "protected the Iraqi Oil Ministry but didn't bother to secure high explosives!"

Just to explain or make this point - As I have said many times before - Could it be that the President and the Army knew more about what our real enemy/objective was in Iraq?

The weapons were not in the ammo dump when the army got there!

But the Documents that prove the UN was corrupt and was actually paid to be our enemy in this endeavor were still in the oil ministry! Got that! Without those we wouldn't have proof as to why they blocked us - why they stopped our entry through Turkey, which would have freed up our troops to stay behind and guard an empty ammo dump!

We wouldn't have been able to confront them (which I believe will happen in Bush's second term) and cause a real alliance against terror!

Folks, our real enemies in this matter are spinning this and Kerry and the Main Stream Media is helping them just so they can take over power. But what kind of power will they have at the end of this? We will be lucky to have the "spitballs" Zell Miller discussed at the RNC!

Daily Trek Tuesday 102604

Wow, what a difference a day makes - not! The media is still doing everything in it's power to push Bush out of office - this time the NY Times is teaming up with CBS (of the Rathergate fame!) to report on missing explosives in Iraq!

I have said in the past that the media NEEDS a Kerry Presidency in order to recapture it's heyday!

To start The Trek let me highlight:

Point A - Well all I have to say is it is a war for goodness sake!

But common sense will give you a bit more insight, to start with you have the amount of explosives, reported to be 380 tons. (some confusion as to weather it is metric tonnes or english, but that isn't that important) In a land where we KNOW there were 600,000 tons of weapons - KNOWN WEAPONS 380 tons isn't that large an amount. Now don't get me wrong, any amount is dangerous - but seriously, see point A above!

Next is the timing of the reports - it seems the last IAEA confirmation report was in January 2003. The weapons were reportedly sealed in March 2003 but were open when our troops liberated the munitions dump April 10, 2003.

NBC had an embedded crew with the army unit that found the dump and confirms that the weapons were not there when they were located. Drudge is all over this - the weapons were not there when we got there! What is the deal - see point A above!

He is also reporting that MSNBC is reporting this line about our wonderful allies: Jim Miklaszewski quoted one official: "Recent disagreements between the administration and the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency makes this announcement appear highly political."

What, how could that be - considering the huge sums of money that were dancing around out there could it be that they weren't quite as political as financial in their concerns!

Captain's Quarters is reporting that the NY Times didn't get the memo from NBC - they are attempting to hammer the story one more time! Just to make their point that George W. Bush is a bad man! And they have first ammendment protection!

They should be ashamed of their behavior, as Roger Simon point points out:

But I cannot shut up. This kind of biased behavior is unconscionable. Although it is nowhere near as drastic, of course, it makes me think of the days of Walter Duranty, that Timesman who won a Pultizer while white-washing Stalin. How could such things happen, I always wondered. Now I know. They happen when people think they are doing the right thing for the right cause and in their zeal don't stop to consider the reality of what they are saying and writing. Yes, this is worse than Jayson Blair.

I couldn't agree more!

By The Way (BTW) can someone point out to me how many fighting allies we had in World War II? It was only 17! Yep, only Seventeen! There were non-fighting ("Moral Support") supporting allies primarily from south and central America.

Now, although they attempted to pay off Hitler by giving him Europe Hitler wasn't able to pay off leaders of other nations in an attempt to ensure his survival! That level of greed and slime wasn't reached until the current century 0r was it, here are the reasons the League of Nations was considered a failure:

• It lacked any armed forces.
• Unanimous vote was required.
• A number of major countries were not included:
  • Even though president Woodrow Wilson had been a driving force behind the League of Nations, the United States never joined, after its Senate refused to ratify the Treaty of Versailles and on January 19, 1919 voted not to join the League.
  • Germany was a member only between 1926 and 1933.
  • Japan and Italy began as permanent members, but left in 1932 and 1937, respectively.
  • The USSR joined only in 1934, and was expelled on December 14, 1939 for aggression, after it invaded Finland.
• Ineffectuality in specific situations, notably the mid-1930s crisis over Italy's invasion of Abyssinia.
• A non-permanent council and assembly made for slow decisions.
• The most important members protected their respective self-interests.

Man three of the five reasons apply to the United Nations of Today!

Daily Trek Monday 102504

Okay, the big news is that John Kerry is either dillusional, a self aggrandizing exaggerated - usually because of a HUGE inferior complex - or an absolute liar!

None of them are good choices - but I would guess it was a combination of the last two, after all he lied about the Cambodia incident and he re-enacted battlefield scenes for the sake of filming them for his future political use. In addition he is the Senator who demands front of the line treatment in Boston asking others, "DON'T YOU KNOW WHO I AM?"

In addition to that on C-Span Elizabeth Edwards was caught telling a supporter that they didn't need to worry about riots or violence as long as Kerry/Edwards wins! Didn't I just talk about that in my last post right below here! Is she really saying that her supporter needs to barricade the doors if they lose - I wouldn't put it past them!

What's it all about? The Trek:

Well, as you can see in this video (The Daily Recycler) John Kerry stated that he had met with the entire UN Security Council before he voted to authorize the Iraq war. This was at least the second time he made this claim. But the problem is that it just didn't happen! The Washington Times investigation proves that he met with 3, and perhaps one more, but that is unconfirmed. There are 15 member council. That is a HUGE difference! Were these 3 the same for who he earlier claimed wanted him to win? Amazing to no one is that France was the only confirmed meeting with a permanent member of the Security Council.

Here is what he said:

"This president hasn't listened. I went to meet with the members of the Security Council in the week before we voted. I went to New York. I talked to all of them, to find out how serious they were about really holding Saddam Hussein accountable," -- JFKerry(D)

Speaking before the Council on Foreign Relations in New York in December 2003, Mr. Kerry explained that he understood the "real readiness" of the United Nations to "take this seriously" because he met "with the entire Security Council, and we spent a couple of hours talking about what they saw as the path to a united front in order to be able to deal with Saddam Hussein."

Lori at Polipundit has this:

Quite a few Polipundit readers are disappointed that this story is another one about Kerry lying. I guess when it is an everyday occurrence it ceases to be big news.

But it really isn't, it is HUGE, this is the man who's entire campaign was based on lies and exaggerations. From Vietnam to his claims that he would be better at building alliances, but it seems his only real concern is France!

In the Mideast, Bush dared to be different That is what the Philly.com says. I said this earlier this month and I agree with when they make these points:

War rather than law enforcement

Democracy rather than stability

Preemption rather than deterrence

Leadership rather than reaction in setting the goals for an Arab-Israeli settlement.

I would have to add the false alliances that were bought by the highest bidders. Hmmm, that is of course Russia and Kerry's UN Security Council favorite FRANCE! Wonder if he picks his alliances based on the same criteria he uses to pick his wife's?

John Kerry was given money by an Albanian terrorist organization known as the Kosovo Liberation Army. They had assisted Chechen Terrorists in the past - the same terrorists that murdered children in their school! (Thanks Wizbang)

Compare this story from Slings and Arrows to the teacher who was fired for having a picture of the President in her grade school classroom:

In this required class, Snider asks students to think about: "Is it right for the Bush administration to use the War on Terrorism for political or commercial purposes? Should Justice Sandra Day O'Connor (search) have been impeached for her partisan, political actions in the Bush v. Gore case? What evidence do we have that Mr. Bush and his cronies lied to the American people in promoting the Iraq war?"

Snider also prohibits students from writing about prayer in public schools, same-sex marriage, the "so-called faith-based initiative (search)," abortion and "so-called creationism," which in his opinion, "[there is] no other side apart from chauvinistic, religious, or bigoted opinions."

Was it Political Science class? No, it was English 101!

I discussed the reasons Europe will never be a real European Union in the past and here is more confirmation of this from Captain's Quarters.

A campaign to make French the official language of European law has been launched in an attempt to show the world that France will not bow to the ascendancy of English without a fight. ...

Teaching unions and politicians have reacted with indignation to a report calling for English to be obligatory in the school curriculum, while one of President Jacques Chirac's objections to Peter Mandelson as an EU commissioner was that his French was not up to scratch.

The foreign ministry has called for a spirited campaign for the language in Brussels while the Académie Française, which campaigns relentlessly for pure French, says defence of the language should be "the major national cause of the 21st century".

English became the primary language of international trade and diplomacy not because governments imposed it but because of the ascendancy of American and British diplomatic and economic power. French influence has steadily declined since the collapse of the Republic in 1940. Instead of freeing the French to create an economic dynamo by abandoning socialism and embracing capitalism, the French have decided to just use Gallic arrogance and insist that everyone speak French because ... well, because they don't want to have to speak English.

The fact that France thinks that a popularity contest of languages is their most pressing national issue while Islamic terrorism threatens the West and their own exponentially-growing Muslim population causes increasing conflict at home demonstrates the essential irrelevancy of Paris. How can anyone take them seriously as a leader in the war on terror while they focus on their language obsession?

I would have to add that not only do they not get it, they believe the world is a zero sum game. As such they think the only way to increase their influence and power - so as to reclaim some of their past-lost greatness they have to hurt the standing of the US.

<>Sounds increasingly like the left here in the US. I used to call them the looney left, but just as it is hard to find moderate muslims it is getting harder to find moderate Democrats.

Ads like the new Moveon ad are a good example. In the ad they have a 9/11 widow who makes a very effective and emotional appeal in an attempt to get people to vote for Kerry. Unfortunately ads like these give an immediate reaction that is followed by a backlash against the candidate. The public reacts almost universally by thinking - bitter widow with misplaced anger that is being used by the candidate or organization to exploit the anger and grief. They definately remember this - but because the loon's are blinded by their hatred they are unable to see this. I wonder what happened to their media people.

UPDATE: Roger Simon wonders if Kerry is a sociopath?

Stolen W's The Beginning

Take a look at the blogs around and you will see that there has been a rash of violent actions taken against Bush supporters. The Dem's in Oregon said the Republicans were causing a fuss about their office being smashed up because they wanted to distract from the Republicans record.

What the F.....

The Portland police are preparing for a reaction by the Dem's in the event they lose on November 2.

Where did this begin - how about this, remember the childish theft of the W's from the computers in the White House when the childish Clinton's left!

Where will it end, if you believe the tales of an internet poster who claimed to be from the future it could be when we realize we are in a new Civil War - John Titor and John Titor. Who knows, the Dem's are easy to get violent against our own - but don't ask them to defend our country against any foreign aggressors!
