I Support U.S. Troops, Period

Hi: I’m Steve Maloney from Ambridge, Pennsylvania, and I have a blog on Townhall.com. It’s accessible at http://www.camp2008victory.townhall.com. I hope you’ll visit it as I’ve visited your blog or other site. I’m very interested in supporting bloggers from PA and adjoining states. Tell me how I can help you build up the number of visitors to your site. My blog talks about political and social issues, with an emphasis on electing conservative candidates in Pennsylvania and elsewhere. Over the years, I’ve written on political subjects for many publications, including Fortune, Newsweek, and The National Review. I was heavily involved in Diana Lynn Irey’s 2006 campaign against John Murtha. Many people ask me what Diana’s up to these days, and you can check that out at http://www.irey.com. Please visit my blog and leave your comments if you’d like. Here’s the excerpt from today’s column.



If you’re a Democratic candidate statewide or in a district outside Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, how do you get elected? You run on the proposition that you’re in favor of the rights of the unborn, gun owners, and labor unions. You’ll also say regularly that you “support the troops,” although you’ll be vague about how you can do so while denigrating their mission. You’ll talk about the need for fiscal restraint, but that won’t apply to “pork” projects benefiting either your district or that of a political ally. In most cases, you’ll proudly note that you’re a Christian, usually a Roman Catholic (like Congressman Jason Altmire, Senator Bob Casey, and even yours truly). You’ll demonstrate regularly that you’re a big fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers (like Altmire) or the Philadelphia Eagles (like Governor Ed Rendell). When you cast a vote in Congress that your constituents might not like, you’ll remain silent about your reasoning on the subject. You’ll maintain extremely close relations with Nancy Pelosi and the rest of the Party’s liberal leadership, and you’ll vote with them on critical issues. In cases where your vote is not needed, they'll let you cast a vote that establishes your credentials as a “conservative.” You’ll look at your elected office as a lifetime position, and you will do everything necessary to retain it. During your many years in Congress, you'll never do anything to offend John Murtha, who has a long memory. You will have long and relatively happy life. Is this a caricature? No, it's very reliable advice on career planning.

explain to us what the exit strategy is,

BUSH IS A JERK. I AM A VIETNAM VETERAN AND A MARINE AND HE NEEDS TO GET US OUT OF IRAQ..

John Edwards: The Bilderberg Candidate (Revised)
by URI DOWBENKO

When you own all the ponies, you don't really care who wins the race. So it is with the US presidential elections in 2004.

After his triumphant appearance at the Bilderberg Conference in Italy even the New York Times was gushing at the performance of John Edwards. The selection of John "Bilderberger" Edwards by John "Skull and Bones" Kerry was inevitable, as the secret societies own all the candidates in this "election."

This time around George "Skull and Bones" Bush is not favored by the elite as his father George H. W. Bush was replaced by Bill Clinton in 1992.

The New York Times wrote -- "Several people pointed to the secretive and exclusive Bilderberg conference of some 120 people that this year drew the likes of Henry A. Kissinger, Melinda Gates and Richard A. Perle to Stresa, Italy, in early June, as helping win Mr. Kerry's heart. Mr. Edwards spoke so well in a debate on American politics with the Republican Ralph Reed that participants broke Bilderberg rules to clap before the end of the session.

REPUBLICANS CRITICIZED CLINTON DURING KOSOVO CONFLICT
From March 24, 1999 to June 10, 1999, the United States and NATO engaged in a military
campaign to protect ethnic Albanians in Kosovo from Serbian aggression. While American troops
engaged in battle, Republican presidential candidates and leaders in the House and Senate criticized the Clinton administration and the war in Kosovo, including the proposed supplemental funding for the conflict.

REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES:
Then-GOP Presidential candidate Governor George W. Bush: According to the Houston Chronicle:

“Bush, in Austin, criticized President Clinton’s administration for not doing enough to enunciate a goal for the Kosovo military action and indicated the bombing campaign might not be a tough enough response. ‘Victory means exit strategy, and it's important for the president to explain to us what the exit strategy is,’ Bush said.” [Houston Chronicle, 4/9/99]
