The Anti-American, Defeatist, Far Left fringe never learns

Roll Call Reports,

"Liberal Democratic lawmakers will push House leaders to return the Iraq War to center stage as early as next week."

When things are getting better why not just pull out. They want defeat at any cost. It is just shamefull they hate America so much.

Berkley Council Guilty of Treason

The Contra Costa times reports,

Hey-hey, ho-ho, the Marines in Berkeley have got to go.
That's the
message from the Berkeley City Council, which voted 6-3 Tuesday night to tell
the U.S. Marines that its Shattuck Avenue recruiting station "is not welcome in
the city, and if recruiters choose to stay, they do so as uninvited and
unwelcome intruders."
In addition, the council voted to explore enforcing
its law prohibiting discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation against
the Marines because of the military's don't ask, don't tell policy. And it
officially encouraged the women's peace group Code Pink to impede the work of
the Marines in the city by protesting in front of the station.
In a separate
item, the council voted 8-1 to give Code Pink a designated parking space in
front of the recruiting station once a week for six months and a free sound
permit for protesting once a week from noon to 4 p.m.

"I believe in the Code Pink cause. The Marines don't belong here, they
shouldn't have come here, and they should leave," said Berkeley Mayor Tom Bates
after votes were cast.

This is the ultimate case for treason. It is one thing to have an opinion and voice it about the war, it is quite another to remove Marine recruiters. This kind of action should not be tolarated in America. Those who voted for this resolution should be found quilty of treason and removed from office. Tell Mayor Tom Bates how disgraceful his actions and comments are, his email address is mayor@ci.berkeley.ca.us

Gen. David H. Petraeus possibly getting a Promotion; He has most certainly earned it

The New York Time is reporting,

The Pentagon is considering Gen. David H. Petraeus for the top NATO
command later this year, a move that would give the general, the top American
commander in Iraq, a high-level post during the next administration but that has raised concerns about the practice of rotating war commanders.

A senior Pentagon official said that it was weighing “a next assignment for
Petraeus” and that the NATO post was a possibility. “He deserves one and that
has also always been a highly prestigious position,” the official said. “So he
is a candidate for that job, but there have been no final decisions and nothing
on the timing.”
General Petraeus has earned a promotion. He has successfully implemented the surge and has made tremendous progress in Iraq. Then instead of being given the appreciation he deserved, the far left took an ad out labeling him a traitor. None the less, he showed up and served admirably. He would serve as an excellent Commander of NATO. I am proud that such great American Patriots exist and are willing to stand up to those who want to blame America for everything and label our Heroes as traitors.

No, Iran is not up to no good, just keep believing that

From the AP,

The top U.S. Navy commander in the area said an Iranian fleet of high-speed
boats charged at and threatened to blow up a three-ship U.S. Navy convoy passing
near but outside Iranian waters on Monday, as they headed into the Persian Gulf
through the Strait of Hormuz. The Iranian fleet "maneuvered aggressively" and
then vanished as the American ship commanders were preparing to open fire, said
Vice Adm. Kevin Cosgriff. No shots were fired.



If you listen to some Iran has been the victim of the big bad United States. I think this incident puts it more in line. Iran is up to no good, but how dare anyone mention that.

Far Left Fringe Alert: Code Pink attacks the Democrats too, now

From the Washington Times,

The mostly female group — famous for disrupting congressional hearings and its
demonstrators clad in pink T-shirts and tiaras — has applied for a new tax
status that permits political work for its campaigns against Democrats as well
as Republicans, Code Pink co-founder Medea Benjamin said.
"We felt betrayed
by the very people we helped to put into office," Ms. Benjamin told editors and
reporters at The Washington Times. "We have a particular break with the
leadership of the Democratic Party."

No, they have a break with the American People. The fact remains the anti-america left wing fringe groups want us to lose no matter what the cost is. The fact is troops can not be pulled tommarow without destablizing Iraq. They are not different than the anti-war groups in the late 60's that went as far as to carry Vietcong flags. They are a small group, the "silent majority" of Americans want America to remain strong and finish the job. This is why congress will not change the policy. Later in the story this quote sticks out

"We are disgusted with all of them," Ms. Benjamin said of the Democrat-led
Congress. "We were in Congress today saying, 'Close Gitmo,' and I changed my
sign to say, 'Close Congress.' "

It is amazing that Ms. Benjamin does not get the America Poltical system. Congress is doing its job preventing a small fraction from endagering the country. I hope Code Pink does try to take on the democrats and the Democratic Party shows them just how much of a fringe group they really are.

Democrats dont look now Baghdad is starting to thrive

The New York Times has the article.

"As a result, for the first time in nearly two years, people are moving with freedom around much of this city. In more than 50 interviews across Baghdad, it became clear that while there were still no-go zones, more Iraqis now drive between Sunni and Shiite areas for work, shopping or school, a few even after dark. In the most stable neighborhoods of Baghdad, some secular women are also dressing as they wish. Wedding bands are playing in public again, and at a handful of once shuttered liquor stores customers now line up outside in a collective rebuke to religious vigilantes from the Shiite Mahdi Army."



What will the Democrats do now. It has become clear that they will only accept failure at any cost, but as the sucess becomes more clear what line will they take. I find this as an indication of why Congress's poll numbers are so much lower than the President's now. While Congress continues to waste time delaying on the war and not handling the real buisness of the nation our Military has been winning. It is time the Democrats got off their soapboxes and did the real work of the people.

Congressional Democrats want to Lose Iraq War so much they just ignore the military reports

The Washington Times has a great article about the lengths to which the Congressional Democrats will go to lose in Iraq at any cost. They reject the reports now that keep rolling in that progress is being made. They just want to ignore them and pull out leaving Iraq worse off than it is today.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi,

"Certainly any time our military is engaged in military action, we want the best possible outcome for them, and they have produced that," she said. "But their sacrifice and their courage has not been met by any action on the part of the Iraqi government."

Interesting, they have met more benchmarks than her house has passed appropriation bills. Is she really the person to judge the effectiveness of government?

Independent Joe Lieberman observed what is really going on, the war critics "remain emotionally invested in a narrative of retreat and defeat, even as facts on the ground show that we are advancing and winning."

House Minority Leader John A. Boehner went even further, "Democrats can't acknowledge the fact that our troops are winning the war against al Qaeda in Iraq without admitting that they've been dead wrong on the biggest national challenge of our generation at the same time."

In the war in Iraq the death tolls of military and civilians has decline dramatically. Al Queda is on the verge on being eliminated. They are even being able to ease curfews and restrictions throughout Baghdad and the nation. Yet the answer for the democrats to that is not build on the success and finish the job, but all you hear from them is cut and run we cant win. I guess American lives and sacrifices mean nothing to them and their defeat at all cost approach.

Why the anti-war movement should be called what it is Treason!

Michelle Malkin has been posting some stories about a group of anti-war protestors in Washington State. These people have been trying to stop the movement of military supplies to and from the port there. They have even gone as far as to use children as human shields.

Go Read Michelle's Stories

This is no longer a protest. When you prevent the movement of items needed to conduct a war it is sedition and treason. These "protestors should not be allowed to continue and not face the consequences. Part of living in America is actually supporting America, or at the very least not try to prevent our brave troops from getting the supplies they need.

Murtha is going to be challanged in 2008 by career army soldier


Representative John Murtha, the anti-war poster child of the democrats will be challenged in 2008. He is being challenged by William Russell a career army soldier. Murtha's constant anti-war message has caused a backlash among conservatives in his district that has man defense related jobs. While Murtha has cited his experience with wounded veterans as why he is in favor of a full withdrawal from Iraq, Russell has the opposite outlook. Russell feels that cutting and running would make the sacrifice of the soldiers in Iraq pointless. On the campaign trail Russell refers to Murtha's views on the war as just flat wrong. He also condemns Murtha's reliance on earmarks and pork barrel budgeting.

While William Russell may not have a real chance at unseating the Democratic chairman of the House Defense Appropriations Subcommittee, at least someone is willing to challenge this corrupt Member of Congress who was once an unindicted co-conspirator in a corruption case.

Another Code Pink Fiasco: Protester waves blood-colored hands in Rice's face


Today Code Pink again disrupted a Congressional Hearing. This one is more alarming since the protestor got within feet of the Secretary of State. Code Pink has shown time and time again that instead of a rational discussion of ideas they have decided that spitting on the institutions of the United States in a better philopsophy. Time has come for Congress to take a stand and forbid the Code Pink Women from coming into the halls of Congress. They have showed that they can not be trusted to act in a rational manner. Our system of government was set up to allow for discussions of ideas, but in any represenative form of government you do not always get your way. When you are not getting your way it is not rational to time and time again come to serious meeting and disrupt them with high school level stunts. I respect all people who bring ideas to the table, but I do not respect people who can not operate in a rational society. I can only hope that those in the anti-war movement will condemn this group for their shameful tatics.

Democrats realize the Bush administration was right after all; this time on wiretapping

The Democrats have claimed that they would rollback the wiretapping policies of the Bush Administration. Now the Democrats are prepared to provide broad blanket authority for the NSA for several years. The Democratic leadership fears that they will not be able to maintain their majority in Congress if they appear weak on the war on terrorism by refusing to give the powers to the intelligence community.

After the war discussion, the investigation, and the grandstanding Congress still has not done their job

Congress has spent countless hours talking about useless measures and ammendments on the War that dont accomplish their goal of getting out. They have spent even more hours investigating the Bush administration. The remainder of the time has been spent grandstanding on the previous two issues and a myriad of other items. Lost in the shuffle they forgot to do their job. Congress appropriates the money the nation spends. Yet Congress seems to not have found to do their prinicpal job. I for one am outraged they have yet to pass final versions of even one appropration bill and wonder why this outrage is not getting more attention.
