Obama vs Bush vs Reagan

OK, real men do put up drapes and curtains... But can you imagine Obamie out in the woods using a chain saw?

Pelosi proves that she is a liar about EIT

All the Lefties are in a twitter trying to protect their heroine, Nancy P of the "I will save the world clan!" (While getting rich on investments she can control the out come of as Speaker of the House... but I digress.)

In truth she has admitted that she knew what the CIA was doing, and thus proved that she has been lying. Let's look first at what the CIA memo says.

The memo, issued by the Director of National Intelligence and the Central Intelligence Agency to Capitol Hill, notes the Pelosi-Goss briefing covered "EITs including the use of EITs on Abu Zubaydah."

Now, Pelosi has admitted to that.

"As this document shows, the Speaker was briefed only once, in September 2002. The briefers described these techniques, said they were legal, but said that waterboarding had not yet been used," said Brendan Daly, Pelosi's spokesman.

Now, all of the EIT’s have been held to be torture. I happen to disagree with that, but Pelosi does not.

And then this fact. The waterboarding of Abu Zubaydah has been know since 12/10/07 when ABC broke the story. So she knew about the techniques in 9/2002 and knew which one had been used and who it had been used on 12/10/2007.

She is a liar. She is a serial liar. Now, if the Left want that kind of person to be third in line to be President, that is their choice.

But they MUST drop all the silly "moral values," "world opinion" and "we must take the high road BS" or just admit to being hypocrites!

Fraud days - I couldn't make this up!

14 EU fonctionnaires investigated for suspected injury benefit fraud have been awarded an extra 3000 euros each from the taxpayer, after it transpired the EU’s fraud watchdog failed to tell the accident-prone civil servants that they were to face criminal proceedings in Italy.

And they wonder why many Americans look at Europe and just shake their heads.

Dogs days

And no, I couldn't make this stuff up.

MADISON, Wis., May 5 (UPI) -- The University of Wisconsin-Madison campus said dogs are being brought to the school to help ease the stress of students preparing for final exams. The school said "counseling canines" will be on hand from 3:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. Wednesday on the Library Mall under the supervision of University Health Services staff, The Capital Times of Madison reported Tuesday.

And the Left can't figure out why political correctness has became a symbol of stupidity. Maybe because the Left is...............?

Life gets tedious- Churchill and stuff

Ducky asks, "How come we get to chose from just two people to run for president but over 50 for Miss America?"

It has rained and stormed for 5 out of the last 6 days. I sure wish that Global Warming would get here....

I think I am suffering from overload. So much to be shocked and outraged about and so little time.

Some good news? Well, maybe funny news. In case you missed it Old Changeable Specter didn't get a lot for his sell out. He is now the JUNIOR Senator, having lost all seniority when he became a Dimicrat.... Specter.... Specter... Spectre.

Bond. James Bond. Shaken not stirred.

Maybe I should show another cat picture, or dog picture....

More funny news? Silicon Valley is all upset at Obamie for changing the way they have been avoiding taxes. Speaking of getting what you deserve..

Preview of what's to come to the US when the hate crime laws are in place?

Michael Savage is barred from going to England because his words provoke....that old free speech gets'm every time.

Some good news?? The market is all the way back to 8500 and the Lefties are crowing like it never fell from 14000 after they took over Congress... and gasoline just cracked $2.00.... The Left never learns.

Feel good stuff... Just rejected a comment from Weeder Gander. Decided to take Ducky's advice...

Serious time? Well, remember last week and Obamie screwed up what Churchill did re terror?? Well, here's a bit more...

PRESIDENT Obama's forays into history, especially Eu ropean history, are interest ing but not always accurate. Who can forget his description during the presidential campaign of African-American GIs liberating Auschwitz? (It was the Russians.) Or his admission during his recent European trip that he didn't know how to translate a certain word into Austrian? (There is no "Austrian"; Austrians speak German.)

His evocation of Winston Churchill in his press conference last Wednesday took confusion to a new height. The president cited the great British prime minister in support of his ban on enhanced interrogation techniques at Gitmo and elsewhere, noting that Churchill never allowed torture of German detainees in World War II "even when London was being bombed to smithereens."

Apparently, Obama got his new, sunny view of Churchill not from reading the Churchill biography that Prime Minster Gordon Brown gave him last month but from Andrew Sullivan's blog. Maybe we should be grateful to Sullivan and Obama for their confusion, however, because Churchill's actual position on what is morally permitted against a nation's enemies illuminates much more about the relationship between torture and civilization than their fictitious version.

Churchill recognized that torture -- the cruel, needless infliction of pain as a means of domination and control of others -- was emblematic of man's barbarism, as opposed to the values of what he called "Christian civilization." It was precisely this barbarism that he saw in the Nazi death camps and the Soviet gulag -- and that we see among the Muslim fanatics who will stone women to death for refusing to wear the veil or behead reporters.

But Churchill also understood that, if barbarism was one enemy of civilization, another was a moral cowardice disguised as moral qualms -- an instinctive flinching in the face of danger, dressed up as "upholding our values."

Churchill had seen this flinching in such 1930s appeasers as Neville Chamberlain, and he feared that he'd see it again among Britons and their leaders after the war.

There is a reason I call Obamie, Obamie. Remember Jackie is the diminutive of Jack.

There is a question that I keep asking the Lefties... If my side is right and your side is wrong, will you accept moral responsibility for all the deaths and injuries?

The silence is so very loud and clear. The poor dears are afraid to be harsh to our enemies and afraid to take what will come if they do not. What a dog's life they lead; pandering to every bit of PC nonsense and denying what their eyes must show them!
