09/04/2004: "Reality Check"

“Chechen rebels” my foot! They are Islamic terrorist and the media should plainly state it. The terrorists who took over that school and killed innocent women and children did so under the same pretenses as militant Muslim groups across the globe. They want an Islamic state under Sharia Law. Horse poop, they want world domination. If all they wanted were their own country, they would probably get it. But like Palestine, that’s not good enough. For Palestine, the big picture includes their own state and the destruction of Israel. And the bigger, global picture for these militant groups includes the destruction of all western civilizations.

Allies and coalition partners of America’s War on Terrorism have been told they will be targets of attacks because they helped us in Afghanistan and Iraq and we have desecrated Muslim soil by invading Muslim lands and by our mere presence in Muslim countries like Saudi Arabia. So why would Russia and France be targets? Shouldn’t they have some immunity for working so diligently to oppose us? Doesn’t that atone for some of their past transgressions?

The dumb ass media keeps reporting that the French journalists are being held hostage because of France’s ban of Muslim headscarves in schools. The French didn’t “ban Muslim headscarves,” they banned all religious symbols (from any religion) in their schools. Their careless and irresponsible reporting would make you think that Muslim communities are suffering religious persecution and discrimination. They aren’t. But all of us will, if the militants are allowed to get their way. The only way they can win is if we choose to let them by sticking our heads in the sand and hoping it all goes away. Hope is not a winning strategy for a war and like or not, this is a war.

The most important election of our lifetime will happen in eight weeks. The Time magazine poll is encouraging and discouraging. The President has picked up an eleven-point lead. That’s encouraging. What I find discouraging is that the highest percentage of the sampled population considers the economy the top issue at 25%, followed by the war on terrorism 24%, followed by Iraq 17%, moral issues such as gay marriage 16%, healthcare 11%. Let me help put this in perspective. 69% of the sampled population have their heads in the sand.

To the 25% of the sampled population in this poll who think the economy is the top issue of this election, “It’s not the economy stupid” because IF WE HAVE ANOTHER MAJOR TERRORTIST ATTACK IN THIS COUNTRY, WE WILL NOT HAVE AN ECONOMY TO WORRY ABOUT. You can spend your time now looking at all the different ways to stimulate the economy and who will do the better job between the candidates and your time will have all been wasted after the next attack and the economy tanks as a result. It has taken three years to overcome the devastation to our economy from the attack on 9/11. You protect the economy by preventing the attack. First things first, WIN THE WAR.

The 17% who think that Iraq is the most important issue and not terrorism clearly don’t see the common thread between the two. Failed states that provide safe haven or reward financially the terrorist are part of the same problem. The problem is terrorism and it breeds in failed states. Saddam Hussein paid money to the family of homicide bombers to thank them for their service. If you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem. The President meant it when he said you are with us or you are with the terrorists and he was right. Saddam is not the only one and he won’t be the last to be toppled. Don’t get caught up in the nitpicking minutia and political spin, keep your eye on the big picture. WIN THE WAR.

To the 27% who consider moral issues such as gay marriage and healthcare the top issues, don’t worry. If we loose the war on terrorism these problems will all go away on their own. Gays would be executed and so would you because you are an infidel. Once you’re dead you won’t need healthcare benefits unless your healthcare benefits are going to include mortician services, which won’t be necessary FOR YOUR MASS GRAVE BURIAL.

The voters of this country have a big decision to make. Are we going to fight this war the Neville Chamberlain way or the Winston Churchill way? My mom used to tell me, “Don’t believe anything you hear and only half of what you see.” Don’t listen to the rhetoric of politicians, look at their deeds. Look at the votes they have cast and the accomplishments of the incumbents. If you have made the first decision, to fight and win this war in the tradition of the victorious Allied forces of WWII, you have an assignment now. The job is not done. If you have not read Hugh Hewitt’s book “If It’s not Close They Can’t Cheat-Crushing the Democrats in Every Election and Why Your Life Depends on It” get it and read it. It is available at Amazon. Read it and implement it now, time is short. If you have read it, become a “Wagon Boy,” Your life and mine may depend on it. Donate to the President, now!

I was glad to learn of the semantic embellishments of Kerry's campaign claiming he fought in the navy as opposed to the naval reserve and to discover his futile attempt at deferment. How this man has the gall to present himself in such a vainglorious manner is beyond me, except that I recognize the classic narcissistic personality most recently seen in Bill Clinton. Even Kerry's taking of a camera to Viet Nam was most telling. Whereas you or I or any normal person would have been filming our comrades with a perhaps a few shots of ourselves included, this fellow has reels of footage of himself performing re-enactments of their experiences. How do you spell Phony? K-e-r-r-y. This man is a poseur and not a very good one at that.
