Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad Promises to Fill Vacuum in Iraq

If the left in this country can not see what Iran is doing and is planning on doing, they are truly blind. For the last three years liberals have called for the United States to pull the troops out of Iraq. (Whacked out liberals like John Murtha have even proposed re-stationing the troops all the way over in Guam. Obviously he never looked at a map) For the last few years Iran has directly and indirectly interfered in the affairs of Iraq (and denying their involvement) After three years of this constant whining about Iraq by the Democrats, along with their willing accomplices in the MSM, the American people have finally turned against the war. Still, I would imagine a majority of Americans could not even state why the US needs to pull out without regurgitating cut-and-surrender talking in the media. Just the US needs to leave because Katie Couric, Keith Olbermann, or some other liberal talking head said so. These talking points do nothing but hurt America.

Seeing blood in the water, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has come clean with his plans for Iraq.

“The political power of the occupiers (of Iraq) is being destroyed rapidly and very soon we will be witnessing a great power vacuum in the region,” Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said.

 

“I can tell you there will be a power vacuum in the region. We are ready with other regional countries, such as Saudi Arabia, and the people of Iraq to fill this vacuum.”

“They are trapped in the swamp of their own crimes,” Ahmadinejad said. “If you stay in Iraq for another 50 years nothing will improve, it will just worsen.”

Sometimes I wonder who is quoting whom. If I had someone read me the quote, I don’t think I would be able to tell the difference between quotes from Democrats or from our enemies. That alone should scare all Democrats, but it doesn’t.

Now the Iranian President tells us what he will do when we leave, which is what Republicans have been saying all along. He will occupy Iraq. If you think the Middle East is dangerous now, just wait until Iran takes over. It will make 9/11 look small and insignificant in comparison.

The Democrats have hobbled the President in conducting this war at every turn; from the ‘warrentless wiretaps’ fake scandal, to trying to close down Gitmo, to accusing US soldiers of torture, to….you name it. They have denounced the US and our soldiers here in the US and overseas. They have called our troops murderers (John Murtha). They have called our troops terrorists (John Kerry). They have said that we can not win (Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, and others). They have called our troops stupid (John Kerry again). They have railed against the President in a time of war. They have called for a deadline for troop withdrawal. They have done everything they can do to rally the terrorists and demoralize our troops. The simple truth is that the Democrats own defeat. They want defeat for the US in order to make short-term political gains at the ballot box. And then when Republicans call them on it, the Dems say we are questioning their patriotism. And yeah, I guess I am. I will question the patriotism of anyone whose words places greater danger on our troops. I will question the patriotism of anyone whose vile words of hate are used against us by our enemies. I will question the patriotism of anyone who calls our troops murderers and terrorists. And I will question the patriotism of anyone who supports terrorist ‘civil’ rights over the safety of our troops.

Herb Denenberg of ‘The Bulletin, a Philadelphia family newspaper says it most succinctly.

In 2007, we are also in a two-front war against Iran, Syria, and other terrorist groups such as al-Qaida. But we are not fighting back. Instead, we are at best ignoring and denying the reality of what’s happening and at worst waving a white flag (Sen. Harry Reid), denying we’re under attack (ex-Sen. John Edwards) or in appeasement mode (Sen. Barack Obama).
One of the reasons we can be oblivious to the fact that we are under attack is our so-called mainstream media, which I’ve often described as anti-American, anti-military, anti-conservative, anti-Bush, pro-terrorism and pro-America’s-enemies. It deals in biased and fraudulent journalism that is so distorted and one-sided that it denies us a real picture of the world.

My message to Democrats is simple: wake up. Ahmadinejad wants to take over the Middle East and spread hisIslamic Revolution to the world. This will be the first step in a never ending cycle of violence against the West, and it will all begin in Iraq. And to think, all of this would start because of a power vacuum when America leaves too early. So wake up, Democrats! When America’s enemies are delighting in our ‘defeat,’ something is wrong. We can either face our enemies head on, or we can start running. Of course the only problem with running away is that you never know when to stop.

Another Challenger for Senator Cornyn: Rick Noriega

In an earlier post, I discussed the lack of attributes by one of John Cornyn’s Democratic rivals: Mikal Watts.  But there is another Democrat running for the Senate from Texas and that is none other than the liberal Representative from Houston, Rick Noriega.  The left in Texas absolutely loves this guy.  That alone is enough to scare me off of him.

Rick has all the attributes of someone from Texas: he is a Lt. Col. In the Texas National Guard, has a lot of pride in being a Texan and being a ‘regular’ Texan, and he has a job and a family.  So why does Noriega want to run?  Two words: public service.  Yeah, right.  Norgiega has this little tidbit on his website:

Rick Noriega’s dedication to public service has extended beyond the battlefield. Elected to the Texas House of Representatives in 1998, Rick has distinguished himself in leading bipartisan efforts for teacher pay raises, border security and opening doors for Texas students to attend college.

Isn’t that nice?  Rick Noriega supports opening the doors for Texas students to attend college and is also for border security, EXCEPT, he also supports giving in-state tuition and favors extending financial aid to illegal aliens.  Either he is for border security or he is against it, because granting this kind of help to illegals does NOT help border security.  It makes securing the border that much more difficult because of the draw of a good education at the Texas taxpayer’s expense. 

What’s more is that Noriega does not want a fence between the US and Mexico saying that it is a ‘bad idea to separate neighbors.’  What’s he plan on using to enforce the border, harsh language?  Noriega might be a good Lt. Col., but it looks to me he will not be a very good policy maker.  His views are all over the place.  This obvious dichotomy between the Houston Representative’s words and his policy standings shows he is just trying to pander to the crowd at the moment.

And like all ‘good’ Democrats, Rick is against the war.  Good thing he is not making policy over in Iraq, otherwise we would have terrorists back over here.

Once again, the Democrats have chosen another candidate for US Senate who is bad for Texas.

Bush Derangement Syndrome On Display

The left in America is absolutely loopy.  Consider what they think of the MSM and MSNBC in particular.

It is one of the strangest dynamics I’ve seen unfold in traditional media over the last few years: George Bush takes a historic dive in approval, the nation rejects the GOP in an ideology shattering wave election, White House critics like Keith Olbermann rise to the top while many of their foaming at the mouth neocon counterparts start out in the financial red and slide into an inkwell of blazing scarlet. And yet, time and time again the response of the traditional media is to crank out another conservative news talk-show or op-ed. Just recently, MSNBC, usually a more reality-based outlet, filled Imus’ lucrative morning slot with conservative Joe Scarborough. Brilliance, sheer, unadulterated brilliance!  (emphasis added by TRS)

Where do I even start?  Keith Olbermann is not a newsman but by any stretch of the imagination.  He espouses his opinion my like Bill O’Reilly at Fox.  And Olbermann’s ranks have slid so far down the scale as to hardly even show up.  In fact, he can only dream of having the kind of ratings O’Reilly has on the O’Reilly Factor.

George Bush may have a low approval rating, but it is no where near as low as the approval ratings of Congress.  This is typical liberal Bush Derangement Syndrome.

And for those keeping track of such things, how many successful liberal talk shows are there still in existence? (Hold on, I’ll think of one in a second….)  The ratings of Fox News blows the other cable news networks out of the water.  CNN (the Clinton News Network) and MSNBC are far behind Fox, whom I view as fairly neutral. 

I saved the best for last.  How on God’s green earth can anyone in their right mind consider MSNBC ‘a more reality-based outlet?’  With ultra liberal ‘anchors’ like Keith Olbermann and Chris Mathews, MSNBC has to be liberal as well.  Then with the revelations made by Joe Scarborough, it leaves no doubt about the feelings of the network. (courtesy of Newsbusters)

Joe Scarborough has pulled back the curtain on the liberal bias at MSNBC, describing an incident in which people in its newsroom ceaselessly booed President Bush during a State of the Union address.

This is the network liberals describe as ‘reality-based?’  Maybe compared to their ultra liberal views, the network is not all that liberal.

Wow, talk about views not based on reality, the liberal blogosphere is full of it. Mistakes can be excused, but laziness and an BDS driven agenda with lies and poor research is not.
