If Obama fails to embrace the report, he will be seen as ignoring his own congressional committee’s findings– and so knowingly failing to appreciate the threat of “radical Islam” and being willfully soft on terror. It might be time to censure this fool. He needs to stop calling himself a Democrat!!! He is a NEO-CON

Colbourn: “I was told that was Peace Corps policy,” she said. “If you did test HIV-positive, you were medically separated from the Peace Corps.” .Come on Peace Corps-It is well past 1986. Stop discriminating.

Charlie Black’s connection to the anti-wind fight, the Alliance to Protect Nantucker Sound has been represented for years by Tom Loeffler. Who is Tom Loeffler? McCain’s Campaign Chairperson. Great story. We have to use more than just fossil fuels. I thought McCain was such an environmentalist?

During a speech before the National Rifle Association convention, former Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee, who has endorsed presumptive nominee John McCain, joked that an unexpected offstage noise was Democrat Barack Obama looking to avoid a gunman. “That was Barack Obama. Somebody aimed a gun at him and he dove for the floor.”
For those that do not understand the significance of discussing shooting a Presidential Candidate, I want to remind people that we lost several wonderful leaders to the hand of gunman. I also want to remind people that Ted Nugent recently made a similar comment about a machine gun and Senator Obama. It is disgusting and Huckabee needs to apologize.

This has received little attention to this day. But President Bush’s recent comments on appeasement makes this a worthy topic for discussion. The man that claims he is for Israel and courts the end-timers, one has to ask why to both?

As Bush flew into Riyadh, the White House said the United States, the world’s largest energy consumer, had agreed to help protect Saudi Arabia’s oil resources and help it in developing peaceful nuclear energy. Let me guess, we will get mangoes. Now everyone will have the bomb. Why is this man still in office?

If you are going to accuse someone of Appeasement, please understand what Appeasement means. Stop revising history like all of the history deniers. It is time to correct the ills of a failed policy.

So what has changed McCain???? Oh yeah, it is an election, I must pander, I must be bombastic, I must play to my base (I am not sure what my base is but I must play to it), I must lie about my opponent, and I must continue George W. Bush’s foreign policies.

This is an example of why the Republican Educational system has destroyed the debate in America. Teaching to the test affects everyone-even talking meat sticks. Chamberlain gave away half of Czechoslovakia-that is appeasement-NOT TALKING TO ENEMIES.
