IRAQI INSURGENTS ENDORSE THE POODLE

This has to go at the head of the Nuze today.  It's official.  The Islamic bastards killing our men and women in Iraq are pulling for John Kerry.  Most of us aren't surprised.

The Islamic murderers in Iraq ("insurgents," as the media calls them) have now removed all doubt as to their objective.  Is it just to kill Americans?  Prevent democracy from taking hold in Iraq?  Avenge the overthrow of Saddam Hussein?  None of the above.  They  have now said their #1 objective is to elect John Kerry president of the United States next Tuesday.  Surprised? You shouldn't be.  A lot of people, including myself, have been telling you this for months.

Listen to the words of Mohammad Amin Bashar of the Muslim Scholars Association, a pro-insurgency group: "If the U.S. Army suffered numerous humiliating losses, Kerry would emerge as the superman of the American people," Another of The Poodle's supporters among the Iraqi resistance is Abu Jalal.  He had this to say:  "American elections and Iraq are linked tightly together.  We've got to work to change the election, and we've done so. With our strikes, we've dragged Bush into the mud." 

Now you have to ask yourself just why would these America-hating Islamic terrorists be against George Bush?

Easy.  Because they fear him, that's why.  Because he has vowed to destroy them, and they believe him, that's why.  Terrorists like to be appeased, not destroyed.   They like to be given numerous chances to clean up their behavior, then slapped on the wrist when they keep chopping off innocent people's heads.  They know that they will get their way, that America will cower in fear, when John Kerry is elected president of the United States.

Complicit in all of this is the mainstream media, the Islamic jihadists' public relations arm.  The media in this country plays right into their hands, supporting their agenda and blowing their accomplishments out of proportion whenever possible.  The left shares the goal with the Islamic terrorists in Iraq: defeat Bush and elect Kerry.  So the attacks get over-reported, Iraq is made to look like it is a disaster, videotapes showing hostage-taking and demands are show on TV, and so on.

So the burning question is this: will John Kerry accept their endorsement?  Probably so, and then he'll blame Bush for making him do it.

Just remember, when you walk into that voting booth next Tuesday Mohammad Amin Bashar and Abu Jalal, along with a bunch of their friends, want you to vote for John Kerry. 

THE LOUDER THE COMMERCIAL ... THE DUMBER THEY THINK YOU ARE.

I have this theory about car deal ads on radio.  The louder and more obnoxious the advertisement, the dumber the dealer thinks his customers are.  I've now concluded that the same holds true for political campaign commercials.

Now think back over the automobile commercials you've heard in the last few months  When you hear about a commercial with a background of explosions and loud noises, and two announcers screaming phrases like "$99 down, $99 a month" over and over ----- when you hear announcers screaming idiotic, mindless phrases like "All credit applications accepted", you know that you are listening to a commercial for a relatively inexpensive car, the type of car generally purchased on credit by someone at the lower end of the economic scale.  Take the higher-end cars like Mercedes or BMW.  You will NEVER hear commercials for these automobiles delivered in a screaming, obnoxious fashion.   Why not?  Because the dealers know that the type of person who has worked hard and smart enough to get to the point where he can spend $80,000 on a car is going to be turned off by a commercial that screams at him. 

Now .. here's where I get in trouble.  Generally speaking ... and, yes, I know that there are exceptions ... but generally speaking the smarter you are the more successful you will become.  The more successful you are, the more likely it is that you are not going to buy a Chevy or a Toyota.  This means (man, is it getting hot in here or what?) that  ... generally speaking ... those why buy the Chevy's and Toyota's are not quite as brite as the person who drives a Benz off the showroom floor.

That brings us to some of The Poodle's recent speeches and ads.  It is clear from the shrillness, the loudness, and the fraudulent claims [ $99 down --- $99 a month !!! ]  that the Kerry Kamp is working overtime to appeal to the less intelligent voters out there.  Case in point?  The recent idiocy over those "missing" explosives in Iraq.

This, my friends, was going to be the blockbuster story that sent the Bush campaign reeling into the ropes the day before the election.  What a scenario!  The International Atomic Energy Agency warns Bush that there are 380 tons of explosives in one particular facility in Iraq.  Now we learn that the explosives are gone!  They've disappeared!  Glorioski, Bush didn't guard those explosives!   After he got that warning from the IAEA he let those explosives disappear!  What a mess!  Can't this guy do anything right?

Yup ... that was going to be the story.  CBS was pregnant with anticipation over what kind of an effect they would have on the Bush candidacy.  The CBS ploy might have worked if the New York Times hadn't stepped in to spoil their surprise by running the story Monday morning.  And then, to add insult to injury, along comes NBC to spoil the whole party.   It seems that NBC had a reporter embedded with the 82nd Airborne as the invasion of Iraq began.  On the second day of the invasion the 82nd arrives at the site to secure the 380 tons of explosives.  They're not there.  Gone.  Vanished.  The explosives were removed before the first American boots hit Iraqi sand.   

Let's do a little reality check on Iraqi weapons.  Saddam left about 1,000,000 tons of weapons when he ran to his spider hole.  We have destroyed about 500,000 tons.  The 380 tons that are "missing" constitute 0.38% of the weapons Saddam had, and 0.76% of the weapons that coalition forces have already disposed of.  Now for those of you who "graduated" from government schools, those figures don't represent one-third and three-fourths of Saddam's weapons, they constitute less than four-tenths of one percent and three-fourths of one percent of those weapons.  In other words, a very very small amount. 

So, we have two realities here.  First, the amount of explosives we're talking about is small ... less than one coffee bean in a one pound bag.  Second ... the only way George Bush could have secured these weapons was to step up his invasion plans and move in to Iraq before he did.  Is that what Kerry's suggesting he do?

As soon as the New York Times ran its story the Kerry campaign produced a television ad.  Here's the script:

"The obligation of the Commander in Chief is to keep our country safe.  In Iraq George Bush has overextended our troops and now failed to secure 380 tons of deadly explosives, the kinds used for attacks in Iraq and for terrorist bombings.   His Iraq misjudgments put our soldiers at risk and make our country less secure, and all he offers is more of the same."

Isn't that amazing?   Kerry is blaming Bush for failing to "secure 380 tons of deadly explosives" that were already gone when the troops under Bush's command entered the country!  On just what level does that make any sense?

There you go, my friends.  That's Kerry's $99 down -- $99 a month moment.*  He knows his ad is an insult to anyone with a modicum of intelligence.  He also is fully aware that at this point in the election the voters he is most likely to sway are those who are uninformed and those incapable of being informed.  In other words, the ignorant.  You'll find them everywhere, even in today's Atlanta Journal Constitution where a reader wrote "Maybe Gen. Franks can take a break from campaigning and explain how he managed to lose 380 tons of high explosives in Iraq."  How's that for brains? 

Bottom line ... Kerry's tactic may work!  Lord knows there's enough ignorant voters out there to really make a difference.

* You do realize, don't you, that when a car dealer screams "$99 down, $99 a month" he's only talking about paying $99 for about three months.  Then your payments jump.  You did know that, didn't you?  If you're the person that car dealer is targeting, probably not.

BUSH-BASHING MEDIA TRIES AGAIN

Since the story about the 380 tons of explosives hasn't quite turned out to be the smoking gun the media wants it to be, they're now looking for another angle to try.  You do what you gotta do to work for that Kerry victory.  After all, there's still 6 days left....there has to be something in George Bush's past they can dredge up.  In 2000 it was the drunk driving conviction, and the media sure was hoping this explosives thing would seal the deal...but no dice.

How about going back to the old reliable?  Let's dredge up the  Bush National Guard story again!  Even though this has been gone over again and again, and even though CBS lied on the air with forged documents, it doesn't matter.  Time for another whirl in the Texas Air National Guard ferris wheel, circa 1972.  So what now?

New Bush Guard documents show that the President was a capable and well-liked pilot that was honorably discharged.  If we were talking about a Democrat, that would be the end of it.   Since we're not, it isn't, and so the template is followed.  Apparently the documents show that Bush stopped regular drills two-thirds of the way through his 6-year commitment without consequence. The documents clearly show that Bush earned all of the service points necessary to complete his service.  What an outrage!  People who weren't there are questioning why he was allowed to do this....there must be a reason, right?

Well, who knows....or cares.  The question is why is the same standard not being applied to The Poodle, who has questionable Purple Hearts, a controversial 4-month tour in Vietnam, and decades of lies on the record attempting to cover it up?

Because the media wants him to win, that's why.

FACE REALITY LADY .. YOUR SON MAY BE A SLACKER

I was perusing the Naples Daily News on line yesterday and came across a story about some woman whining because her son got a C in English instead of a B.  His overall score was 79.8.  Diane High says that the grading system is not "beneficial to our children."  She's also afraid that the C score will affect her child's chances of getting into honors classes when he goes to high school next year.   She says "He's an A student."

Lady ... you kid isn't an A student.  He just got a 79.8 in English in today's generally dumbed-down schools.  That's not an A, and it wasn't a B when I was going to school either.  If I remember my days at Pensacola High I believe I had to get close to an 85 before a B showed up on my report card.  Giving an unearned grade to your child would not be beneficial, as you put it.  But I'll tell you what would be beneficial.  Instead of showing your child that you'll rush to his defense when he slacks off and gets a merely average score in a subject, yank his Play Station away and lock his butt in his bedroom for a few hours of after-school hard-core studying until those grades come up.

And quit whining.  If you really gave a flying damn about your kids education you wouldn't have him in a government school in the first place.

STUDY FINDS MEDIA ACTUALLY BIASED

A new study by from the Project for Excellence in Journalism has found that the media coverage during the presidential debates was much more favorable to The Poodle than it was the president.  Be still my heart.....really?  You swear?

During the two weeks sampled, more than half of all the Bush stories were negative in tone, while only one-quarter of the Kerry stories were.  Imagine that!  This must come as such a shock to the media, who just can't imagine there is such a thing as media bias.

One needs only to tune into the CBS Evening Kerry with Dan Rather every evening to catch the daily half hour of Bush-bashing.  The broadcast networks' evening newscasts (with their viewership dropping like a rock) continue to cling to their very liberal reporting, while outlets like Fox News continue to grow.  Sooner or later their parent companies, no doubt interested in making a profit, will either cancel their broadcast or make them change the content.  Maybe.

Despite the overwhelming evidence of media bias, people still deny it.  Then again, there are people who believe the Earth is flat, the holocaust never happened and the Apollo moon landing was faked. 

READING ASSIGNMENTS

They're getting a head start.  Democrats have already filed 9 election lawsuits in Florida.  They're charging plots to disenfranchise minority voters.  We're still six days away from the vote!  It's all about building a fire under black voters and getting them to the polls.  Now .. bear in mind.  If Republicans hatched a plan to drive more white voters to the polls they would be called racists .. but you already knew that, didn't you?

There's still hope....nearly 1 in 10 voters have already cast their ballots for president, and 51 percent say they've voted for George Bush.  But how is the president doing amongst the dead vote?

There is another group voting at the polls that we aren't hearing much about this year: illegal aliens.  Michelle Malkin takes a look at this group, and once again asks the burning question of why people aren't asked to produce identification at the polls.

Dick Morris says nobody knows who's going to win the election next week, because of a variety of factors, including cell phones and people's hatred of pollsters.  He also says beware of an October Surprise from the left.

The first Libertarian Party candidate for president  in 1972 is supporting President Bush for reelection.  Why?  Because he says there is too much at stake not too.  Just as it should, he says it all comes down to The War on Terror.

A top Israeli Rabbi says that Jewish people should vote for Bush.  Unfortunately it doesn't matter, because for some reason the overwhelming majority vote Democratic.

Well, you knew it would happen eventually....billboards in Florida are blaming President Bush for the hurricanes.  And who is behind the effort?  Why, none other than a bunch of environmental nutcases and the NACCP.

Democrats are already getting out the fraud vote....the governor of Ohio says more people are registered to vote in 4 Ohio counties than there are people of voting age living in those counties.  Two words: Check ID.

Meanwhile, Democrats have filed 9 lawsuits in Florida already.  Heaven help us all.

The supposed "October Surprise" was a big flop for the networks, who were sure they had Bush nailed to the wall.  The Media Research Center reports.

The black vote is as dependable for the Democrats as anything, but Thomas Sowell wonders why this is, considering the Democrats have done everything they can to hurt their cause.

How should people vote?  Walter Williams explains that most people vote for whichever candidate promises the most handouts.

Reaching into his mailbag once more, Professor Mike Adams responds to an urgent letter from a colleague at another University who is having a problem with some leftists.

Should be an interesting Thanksgiving dinner at the Kennedys' house this year.  California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger is poking fun at Uncle Ted's weight...relentlessly.  Even compared him to a pumpkin!

Communist Cuba has announced it is eliminating U.S. currency from circulation.  Too bad...looks like Jimmy Carter will have to bring his pop bottles next time he visits his buddy Fidel.

Even CBS is now admitting that there's nothing to the story about the bulge in the back of President Bush's suit jacket during the first presidential debate.
