Obama Would Be First Un-American President
Obama's reprehensible, ill-informed and misleading comments regarding Iraq - and specifically the surge - may qualify him as the first genuinely un-American presidential nominee in history. It's impossible to define a man who would attempt to gain the office of Commander-In-Chief by losing an American war an American. Evidently Obama's upbringing instilled in him nothing of the best of American tradition. He's, purely and simply, a total sell-out - all ego and ambition, with no realistic positive vision for America at all.
What the hell is this below supposed to mean? I was clueless and got it dead wrong, but, if not for that, my judgment would have been right ...?? because I am the messiah come to deliver you from Satan Bush. Now don't ask me anymore tough questions, or I'll write a whiny op-ed in the New York Times that everyone's always picking on me, just as they were my wife before I cried about that. What a pathetic excuse for a man, let alone a would be world leader this clown is.
"Here is what I will say," Obama said, "I think that, I did not anticipate, and I think that this is a fair characterization, the convergence of not only the surge but the Sunni awakening in which a whole host of Sunni tribal leaders decided that they had had enough with Al Qaeda, in the Shii’a community the militias standing down to some degrees. So what you had is a combination of political factors inside of Iraq that then came right at the same time as terrific work by our troops. Had those political factors not occurred, I think that my assessment would have been correct."
Yeah, without an increased troop presence bringing more security due to the surge, the Sunnis would have just up and kicked al-qaeda out on their own. What a scumbag this guy is. He just sold out the entire military in that one statement - and all to try and save his ass for being so absolutely wrong on Iraq. Disgusting.
It's fair to conclude this dilettante would sell-out anyone, or anything to gain a political advantage. Not only does America not need a president like that, frankly, we can't afford one. The all-Obama all the time press coverage of his current travels has to qualify as one of the low points in our media's history. And that is saying something, indeed.
The entire episode has become repulsive. Just as the average American has come to reject our media as worthless, they will come to reject this empty-headed and un-American egotist, as well. Obama is providing the opposition with perhaps the only thing that could lead to a McCain victory in the Fall: good reason to loath Barack Hussein Obama.


Sore.Loser. (Emphasis on loser)

I am a senior citizen and cannot believe that the majority of americans have grown so stupid over the years as to even consider voting for this empty-headed nitwit(Obama) for president. Americans, get your head out your a$$ before you vote!

"may qualify him as the first genuinely un-American presidential nominee in history."
WTF does that mean? Un-american how? What?
"by losing an American war"
One of the problems the NYT had with McCain's op-ed piece was that they wanted him to define victory, and he wouldn't, or couldn't.
The reason?
Its not a war, that part ended years ago, its an occupation.
An occupation of a foreign, sovereign [democracy rules!] country.
How do you win an occupation?

Standing down? To some degree?
How about getting hammered into the ground every time they stuck their heads out from under their rocks.
Oh, and if you can't follow Barry O'Bama's "If things were different they wouldn't be the same" logic, then you're just a racist.

Oh, don't be so bitter. I'm sure Clinton and Carter can't be sold so short so quickly. If you thought about it long enough, you could paint them as unAmerican too. I have faith in you.

As usual the liberal comments shine thru with their hatred of anything conservative or Republican.
Obama's politican godfather was Bill Ayers. I defy anyone to find a way to describe that man as anything but anti-American. Obama considers him a friend. Obama may not be anti-American but he takes money and support from people who are and that makes him a an anti-American cousin.
With a couple more years of experience Obama might even be qualified to be called an empty suit.

"I think that, I did not anticipate, and I think that this is a fair characterization, the convergence of not only the surge but the Sunni awakening"
My goodness is he uninformed. The Anbar Awakening began in early 2006. This is from the February 13, 2008 edition of the Christian Science Monitor.
"The Sahwa Movement, he says, began with a conference of 12 tribal sheikhs, including himself and the late Abdul-Sattar, in early 2006. They all pledged to fight the brutality of Al Qaeda, which had sought to overpower the Anbari tribes. He proudly recounts how he himself used to execute captured Al Qaeda operatives, many of whom were members of his own tribe".
Obama knows as much about Iraq as the boob.

DeB
An occupation of a sovereign country? You're obviously very confused. Rather than use inappropriate labels ask yourself how do you, as an American, help to create peace and stability in Iraq? I think you know the answer.
Why do you think it is in America's interest to have a President who implicitly advocated a military defeat of the United States, at the hands of al Qaeda yet,(and that is how it would have been portrayed) and chaos in Iraq. The effect of his policy would have been that oil rich Iraq would be in the hands of al Qaeda and Iran. There would have been a true civil war and chaos. All because he wanted his party's nomination. It doesn't get any more moronic or scandalous than that.

A message to the libruls out there:

The WAR on terurr has been WON!!!! Mission Accomplished!

Oh Yeah, I forgot
How do you define victory?
Not this:
"The effect of his policy would have been that oil rich Iraq would be in the hands of al Qaeda and Iran"
That's what it's been about all along
No war on terror
No WMDs
No purple fingers
No girls in school

If you think Iraq was peaceful before it was liberated you live in a Michael Moore fantasy world.
And regarding your 6:06 post if you don't think it was important to keep oil revenues beyond the reach of al Qaeda then you're about as swift as boob and Obama. I suggest you read McGrory and Bhattia's Saddam's Bomb. It might help you get a clue.
And boob, you're too stupid to know the difference between joy and anger. Losers are angry. Winners are joyful. I am joyful that I am now and again able to tell you so. And I'm telling you so. You were wrong about Iraq even if you lack the character to admit it. Loser.
Posted by: Terry Gain | Tuesday, July 22, 2008 at 06:22 PM
I believe most people miss the point. The news media does not favor a candidate. They favor themselves. And in a time when print media is facing massive revenue declines along comes a candidate that promises them 4 years of unparralled access and an endless supply of stories. Never mind that this candidate may set America on it's ear. The news media gets to document the ride and increase revenues.
John McCain doesnt offer them the same opportunities. If you were running the news media, who would you be pushing for?

Nice fluff piece there President Carter.
Nothing like linking the fellow trolls in the MSM for your Messiah fix.
That is proof positive that the troops in Iraq love the "One"
Just what ABC news intended for you to believe don't you think.

This guy Obama sounds like what that Louisiana Nat Guard guy was talking about when he said "stuck on stupid."
What Barry Hussein-O means is that if he hadn't been wrong, he would have been right!
No wonder his minders are avoiding interviews & keeping him glued to a teleprompter!
And even terminal-wuss David Gergen noted that negotiating with a Prime Minister in time of war is unheard of [actually, it's a violation of the Logan Act, I believe.]

How about you Sactownman - can you think for yourself? Cause from your posts, your, uh, thinking doesn't ever seem to get past the latest republican talking points. That and you seem a very, very angry man. You need to learn to relax, cause it's going to be a long, long eight years under two-term President Barack Obama.
That's right, just like the video, it's Obama for TWO.

“If you think Iraq was peaceful before it was liberated”
No, I don't think Iraq was peaceful before it was Invaded & Occupied.
Saddam was 8 different kinds of Butthead,
But an illegal invasion is an illegal invasion.
“keep oil revenues beyond the reach of al Qaeda”
Saddam did not get along with Al-Qaeda; he wasn't giving them any oil revenues.
“you're too stupid to know the difference between joy and anger”
Well, I used to date Joy, and isn't Anger a punk band?

There must be a full moon since the moonbats are out in force. Just like Hussein they talk and talk but never say anything other than I hate America. I love to see freedom loving Americans deny freedom to others, but that's the democraps way. Just the replacement of the American flag on his aircraft with the 'next' world emblem should tell you all you need to know and if you were paying attention last week when he proposed the civilian 'security' force equipped, armed and funded to match the military, be scared, really scared of this fool. The last time a country had a force like that they were called the Jack Booted SS and wiped out millions of Jews and anyone else their 'godly' leader wanted wiped out. Well another Hussein did have a similar force that but only wiped out a couple of million of his own people. Not a radical Islamist my a**.

SacTownMan, Be kind to the Messiah, he will stop the ocean from rising, as soon as he finds his crib notes written by some white guy hiding in the back room. The uh and aw's are simply a stall until his father (Osama) shines the light on him. "If the political climate changes to the bad, I will stand with Islam". B Hussein O, in his own words, in his own book about his only hero, himself. Not Islamic my arse.

This is really funny. For years these libs have been complaining about Maliki, how he was wasting our money, how he couldn't get along with his opposition, how he was failing to make political "progress". But now he says American forces should leave when conditions permit, say in 2010, and the libs go gah gah over what a great man he is all of a sudden. Gee if Maliki sides with Obama, Obama must be right. All hail Maliki. What a typical lib joke.

Some random thoughts...
@ Scrapiron:
As nice as it would be to think that Obama's campaign was doing something unlawful with US aircraft (at taxpayer expense), he has not done anything wrong. The aircraft, tail number 755NA, is in fact a rented Boeing 757 under US registry from North American Airlines, a charter airline and subsidiary of Global Aero Logistics, Inc.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_Airlines
This Freep post goes into specifics:
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2049741/posts
Analysis:
Illegal? No.
Sinister? Maybe, as is his seemingly dislike of the American flag in blace of his "LOGObama".
Egotistic and entirely too presumptive of victory in November? Definitely.
@ Islamic Llama and fellow trolls: If I may repeat a mixed metaphor...
Don't count your chickens before they come home to roost: Obama is NOT guaranteed a victory in November, however likely that might seem at present, much less a second term. Just remember Madame Senator Clinton, who was thought to be all but certain to be crowned the nominee as recently as last year.
Unless of course, there really is something illegal and fraudulent in the works, and some of you lot are in fact subversive ACORNistas tipping your hand with insider knowledge.

What about Eisenhower's promise to get us out of Korea and let the Commies take over? Doesn't that qualify as the first Un-American President. Can you not apply the same criteria to both situations? http://www.eisenhowerbirthplace.org/legacy/ike0001.htm
Oh and while I'm at it, where are the hundreds of aplogies to Obama for the accusations about his Uncle not liberating a concentration camp? http://www.huffingtonpost.com/huff-wires/20080723/obama-s-wwii-uncle/ I know you're all contrite about that one.

"How do you win an occupation?"
You leave, or reduce forces, or put them under size controls of the local popular government.
Like Obama has said and McCain cannot accept.
By the way Reagan's people negotiated with Iran before Carter left office.
