I write this knowing it will provoke a response from my fellow columnists. I’m happy to help get those creative juices flowing because God knows there’s nothing worse for a liberal than to have nothing to complain about. (Considering liberals, maybe I shouldn’t even use the term “God.”)
As we’ve seen lately, if there’s nothing to complain about liberals will make something up, even if it ends up exposing their own hypocrisy on issues. I say this because I have to take a few minutes to talk about Barack Obama and the liberal response to the surge and the current success we are having in
As we move closer to the November election, I’m amazed by the nerve of Barack and his left-wing supporters and their already revisionist perspective on the war on terror, as well as their continued opposition to protecting Americans and our economy. It is so disgusting that on Barack’s world tour — with stops in such friendly countries as
And people actually had the unmitigated gall to compare that speech in
Barack Obama seems to think the only way to win this election is to destroy the very credibility our country has taken centuries to build. Barack and his merry band of far-left advisors believe that if they spend any time talking about the successes of this country, it will hurt their candidate and their chance to occupy
I for one believe elections should be about issues and what you have done and will do if elected, not about feel-good slogans like “change.” I guess this leads me to ask Obama: What is his “change”? Oh, nobody knows because he refuses to elaborate. So far all we’ve gotten from him is that he very badly wants to leave the impression that our country is bad — evil, racist. He has essentially told us that the sum total of his whole life’s experience has left him and his wife embarrassed to call themselves Americans, at least until very recently.
What does that mean? I’ve never been embarrassed to call myself an American. As a matter of fact, I’m thankful every day to God (uh-oh, I used that three-letter word again) that I am an American.
Thank you, John McCain
But I need to get back to my main theme: Elections should be about issues and what you have and have not done. John McCain isn’t right on all the issues. As a fiscal conservative I have to tell you his stance on cutting taxes and his immigration stance worry me. But he is right on the most important issue, and that is the surge and the war against terror.
Barack is wrong on the fundamental issue of national security. Remember, if we are wrong on the war on terror, all the other issues don’t much matter. Who cares if you are right on fiscal issues — and Obama’s redistributionist approach isn’t by the way — but are so wrong on national defense that we end up victims of an attack that renders our country completely incapacitated? I emphasize this point because Barack is wrong on the very issue that trumps all others right now: securing the safety of this country and our citizens.
While Barack travels around the world acting like a rock star and bashing
Thank you, John McCain. And I hope for the safety and for the future of the entire free world that people wake up and realize we are electing a president, not the winner of American Idol.
