OSAMA ENDORSES KERRY!

Sorry, but there's just no other way to look at it.  Osama  bin Laden's video exhorting American to prove that they feel all nice and warm about Muslims can be seen as nothing but an endorsement of John Kerry.  Anyone who actually believes that Osama would call off his rabid Islamic jihadist dogs if Kerry won and made nice-nice is a fool.  Osama and his serpent followers don't just want the infidels to leave them alone in the Middle East, they want  our culture and society to die ... to cease to exist.

I'm joining Sean Hannity, Oliver North and others today to visit Jacksonville, Orlando, Pensacola, Dayton, and Cincinnati on a get out the vote rally.  Suddenly, after that tape, I realize how important this is.  The families of 9/11, as well as your children and grandchildren are depending on you. 

And remember ... there is no secret ballot this Tuesday.  Either you stand in that voting booth with Osama bin Laden's arm around your shoulder, or you stand there with the victims of Islamic terrorism and vow to fight on.

We'll see you on the road.

THE POODLE'S 380-TON OBSESSION

John Kerry has decided that the defining issue of the last week of his campaign for President of the United States is this story about whether or not somebody was guarding an arms depot in Iraq almost 2 years ago.  If that doesn't speak volumes about the left's desperation, I don't know what does.

Of course, it all started when the New York Times and CBS were going to run the story that the Bush Administration left the explosives unguarded and allowed them to fall into the hands of Islamic terrorists.  That plan came crashing down when other news organizations reported that the weapons were already gone when Coalition troops got there.  That didn't stop The Poodle from talking about it, and so now there's some more news.

The New York Times is running a story that says a videotape made by a television crew with the troops that opened the bunkers does indeed show a huge supply of explosives still there nine days after the fall of Saddam Hussein.  The Pentagon has released some satellite photos that clearly show trucks at the site after the inspectors left.  What were those trucks doing there?  So who's right?

First, it's important to introduce something that the media and the left doesn't want you to know - perspective.  Yes, 380 tons sounds like a lot...but the U.S. Military has destroyed 400,000 tons of explosives from across Iraq, which means what we're talking about here is less than one-tenth of one percent.

Second, just who is The Poodle really blaming here?  George Bush was not the one guarding that weapons depot, Coalition forces were.  Is Kerry saying the troops are at fault?  What if they were guarding it, but were moved elsewhere more important?  Once again, it's bash Bush first, get the facts second.

And why are the Democrats all of a sudden worried about missing weapons?  These are just conventional weapons...Saddam's weapons of mass destruction are still not accounted for. 

It just depends which way the wind blows...weapons, no weapons...whatever makes the President look bad, that's what the left is going with.

NAACP BUSTED FOR BUSH-BASHING

For years, the NAACP has been masquerading as a non-partisan organization that was supposedly standing up for the interests of black Americans.  What they've really been doing is selling their people out to the Democratic party, all in the name of money, power and influence.  And now they're being called on the carpet.

You see, the NAACP is classified as a tax-exempt charitable organization.  That essentially means taxpayers subsidize their existence because people can write off their contributions.  There is a federal law that prohibits those organizations from engaging in political activity.  Naturally, since the NAACP sold out to the DNC years ago, they've been breaking that law big-time.

So now the IRS is investigating whether a speech made by the NAACP Chairman Julian Bond last summer that criticized President Bush violates that law.  Doesn't mean he can't say what he thinks, just means people wouldn't be able to write off contributions, and that would kill the goose that lays the golden egg.

Black activists like Bond long ago sold out the people he was supposedly representing to the liberals in the Democratic party.

A TERRORIST IN PARIS

So Islamic terrorist Yasser Arafat (or as the media puts it 'Palestinian Leader') is having some health problems. He has been living in his rathole in the West Bank for the last three years.  Why Israel isn't allowed to put him out of our misery, I will never know.

So Arafat apparently needed medical attention (unless he's faking it, which is entirely possible) and the Israelis decided to allow somebody to pick him up and take him to a hospital.  So where did he go?  What country would possibly roll out the red carpet for an Islamic terrorist that supports the killing civilians with homicide bombers?

Why none other than the terrorist appeasers themselves..the French.  Arafat went to Paris, where the French government said they would always stand by him.  Figures.

READING ASSIGNMENTS

The Democrats and their buddies in the media like to say that there as no link between Saddam Hussein and 9/11.  How about this?  Osama Bin Laden tried to purchase the world's largest pearl to give to Saddam Hussein as a gift.  Nope...no link there. Not at all.

Despite spending millions on TV ads, it looks like George Soros is having a little buyer's remorse.  He now doubts a Kerry victory.

So the Boston Red Sox are supposed to be The Poodle's team....except their pitching ace endorsed President Bush on national television.  Not only that, Curt Schilling is campaigning with the President.

Now that the election is coming to a close, George Will says the economy is pretty good, and voters may wind up not being all that excited about The Poodle.

John Kerry is shamelessly lying about the missing explosives, and Ralph Peters calls the myth sayers on it, and lists all of the facts.

Are things really as bad as we're being told this year?  Victor Davis Hanson argues they're not, and says the supposed divide in the nation is really all in the heads of the elitists.

The Poodle had a chance at the end of the campaign to go for the jugular, and instead has come up short.  Dick Morris says his embracing of the dubious missing explosives story is a mistake.

This should come as no surprise....CBS is ignoring the new facts on the 380 tons of weapons, and the Media Research Center is there with a full report.

In The Poodle's fantasy land, he has managed to turn the United States' success in Afghanistan into a failure.  Charles Krauthammer looks at the evolution of John Kerry.

Despite their airing forged documents in the Bush National Guard scandal, CBS was all set to run the story about the missing 380 tons of explosives.  Thomas Sowell says CBS is a disgrace.

The left likes to accuse the president of lying, but David Limbaugh says that's not their real issue and takes a look at a number of their arguments.

The Poodle says he won't make the kind of mistakes that George W. Bush has made.  Mona Charen says she prefers George Bush's mistakes to Kerry's, and explains why.

It sounds as if Dan Rather is predicting a Bush victory here.  Be still my heart.
