TERRREEEEEEZZZA PREDICTS OSAMA "CAPTURE"
I thought the Kerry campaign had Tereeeeza Heinz Kerry locked in a basement
somewhere. After her disastrous (and boy do I mean disastrous) speech at
the Democratic National Convention (did I mention her speech was terrible?,) The
Poodle's people have done their best to muzzle his keeper. Well, here she
goes again.
Speaking at a Phoenix f
und raiser yesterday, Her Highness raised $1 million for
the Democrats and had some pretty interesting things to say. She criticized the
Bush administration on tax cuts, the war on terror and the war in Iraq.
But what is getting the most attention was her prediction that Osama Bin Laden
might be caught before Election Day. "I
wouldn't be surprised if he appeared in the next month," said The Poodle's
Keeper. The implication being that George W. Bush and Donald Rumsfeld are
keeping Osama Bin Laden's whereabouts a secret, so that he can be captured just
in time for the election, which would benefit the president. Right.
This completes the left's march off the deep end. You can put this one
right up there with the suggestion that George W. Bush had the jetliners flown
by remote control into the World Trade Center so that he could start a war and
make himself popular. They have now aligned themselves with the Howard
Dean-Michael Moore conspiracy wing of the Democratic party. Since they
don't like the facts of the situation, they simply concoct an alternate reality
to support a theory that suits their ideology. In other words, they just
make stuff up.
The rest of what Mrs. Kerry said was standard stump speech material, including
the lie that Iraq is a disaster. She also said that she was embarrassed to
have received a tax cut supported by President Bush. Hey, if she doesn't
want her tax cut, she can send it to me.
The election grows closer by the day....which is welcome news for Osama Bin
Laden, who is locked in John Ashcroft's basement.
SKERRY'S CAMPAIGN TIED TO CBS FORGERIES
This is getting juicy. We know that there was contact between CBS' forged
documents source Bill Burkett and now Kerry campaign staffer Joe Lockhart.
The Poodle's campaign is trying to brush it off as an innocent phone call...but
it looks like there may be more to the story.
In an an interview to appear in a Forth Worth newspaper, Burkett is saying
Lockhart tried to "convince me as to why I should give them the
documents." Well now that doesn't sound like just an innocent phone
call, does it? Nope...looks like Joe was really wanting to get his hands
on those documents. For whom? No doubt his new boss, John
Kerry. We know that the CBS producer Mary Mapes contacted Lockhart and
told him to call Burkett, as a condition of the handover of the phony documents.
When the smoke finally clears on all this, I bet we'll find that the Kerry
campaign and the Democrat's finger prints are all over this forged documents
story.
THE POODLE DISSES IRAQI PM
Yesterday, the Interim Prime Minister of Iraq addressed the United States
Congress. In the speech, Prime Minister Allawi thanked the United States
for liberating his country. This proud moment should have been broadcast
all over the country, but that's not what happened.
You see....that's good news for Bush. And the leftist media's prime
directive states that and news that is good for Bush must be downplayed or not
reported. So we didn't hear much about it. As soon as the prime
minister finished his address to Congress, out trots The Poodle from the
campaign trail to bash the whole thing.
During his press briefing, Kerry said "The United States and the Iraqis
have retreated from whole areas of Iraq." He also called Iraq a
"magnet for terrorism." "There are no-go zones in Iraq
today. You can't hold an election in a no-go zone." In other words,
John Kerry is saying that he wants Democracy to fail in Iraq. He wants the
United States to fail. He knows that if he is going to get any political
mileage out of the situation in Iraq, he has to promote as much doom and gloom
as possible. Despicable.
Prime Minister Allawi had an answer, however..which also wasn't widely
reported. He correctly pointed out that 14 or 15 of Iraq's 18 provinces
are completely safe, and that there are only three provinces that contain
pockets of terrorists. In other words, what is being reported constantly
is designed to paint the picture that Iraq is an out-of-control place, and it is
not.
Right now, The Poodle and the Democrats are hoping more people die in Iraq
because they think it will improve their chances in November. Now who's
politicizing the war?
RICH GETTING RICHER?
Forbes has released their new list of the 400 wealthiest Americans (Bill Gates
is still the richest,) and there are now more billionaires in America than ever,
with 45 new members joining the list. This is good news, right?
After all...the economy must be doing something right...it's creating more
billionaires!
Not so with the media...who are now starting to report that the rich are getting
richer. But that's false...the list is expanding...more are getting
richer, not just the same ones. But facts never mattered to the left...we
all know rich people get that way by stealing from the poor, right?
Some of the billionaires inherited their wealth, but many created their own
fortunes through their own hard work. Despite what the class warfare
mongers say, there are no limits to what you can accomplish in the United
States.
Unless you spend your time whining.
OIL-FOR-FOOD-FOR-TERRORISM
The investigation into the United Nations' Iraq oil-for-food scam has taken an
interesting turn. Investigators into the oil-for-food rip-off, where
Saddam Hussein bribed U.N. officials to look the other way while he used the
money to build more palaces and line his pockets, are looking into whether the
money was used to fund terrorism. That's right...the possibility exists
that money managed by the UN may have been used by Al-Qaeda.
Surprised? You shouldn't be.
According to Juan Zarate, the assistant treasury secretary in the Office of
Terrorism and Financial Intelligence, Saddam wanted to buy weapons to use
against the United States. That was illegal as part of the 1991 agreement
that ended the Gulf War, but the oil-for-food scam gave Saddam the cash he
needed to get around the ban.
Fox News' special investigation has found, for instance, a front company in the
United Arab Emirates that operated under the program, selling all sorts of stuff
to Iraq. Turns out that company was secretly controlled by the government
of Iraq itself, which tried to buy military hardware with it. A lot of money
changed hands, and a lot of that money is still missing. Where did it go?
We know that Osama Bin Laden doesn't personally have the cash to fund Al Qaeda's
$30 million annual budget. Where is he getting it? It is a fact that
Saddam had contact with Al Qaeda....did they do some financial deals?
If it turns out that the U.N. funded terrorism, that makes them a terrorist
organization. Very interesting.
TIME
TO STEP FORWARD AND HELP THE CAUSE
As
you know, I write a weekly (more or less) column for Townhall.com. I was
surprised to see one of those Townhall.com columns referenced in the nationally
syndicated Mallard Fillmore cartoon strip last Friday. Townhall.com is
widely accepted as a virtual treasure trove of conservative thought and ideas by
opinion makers, politicians, businessmen and ordinary citizens who check in
every day to see who is saying what about whom. Townhall.com is engaged in
their Fall pledge drive, and I'm asking you to step forward and help with a few
bucks. Townhall.com pays a small fee for each one of my columns. I
donate that fee back to the cause. Can you help out a bit too so that this
website can continue to present it's valued content to the rest of the nation? I
promise you that every dollar you donate causes another liberal to develop a
sudden headache. Click

Another candidate for mother of the
year found by our friend Psycho.
Election Day is just around the corner, and your Talkmaster says too many people
are voting. How do we weed out the losers? Read
on, in this week's Townhall.com column. Send it to all your
friends....and kick in a couple bucks to the Townhall folks during their pledge
drive.
Wealthy environmental extremists have lost all sense of reality, and are really
the ones keeping poor people down. Thomas
Sowell talks about "the green zealots."
The biggest danger facing whomever wins the presidential election is what to do
about Iran, who is pursuing nuclear weapons. George
Will has more.
John Kerry is not so much a flip-flopper as
he is a dishonest person, according to David Limbaugh. This actually
helps The Poodle. Always a good read.
The rest of the media is coming to CBS' defense...and are buying the theory that
media bias had nothing to do with the forged documents case. Jonah
Goldberg reports.
The Dan Rather forged documents story and John Kerry's campaign are
joined at the hip in more than one way, writes Mona Charen.
The backlash has begun....a
Boortz affiliate has ditched the CBS radio network because of listener
complaints about Dan Rather. Time to pay the price.
Imagine if the candidate running for president in 1944 had insisted that we were
losing World War II, and that he would withdraw the troops if elected. Ralph
Peters says The Poodle is doing just that.
The fact that Kerry has reverted to a message about Iraq exposes one of his
weaknesses. Andrew
McCarthy explains.
Dick Morris
says The Poodle's switch to the anti-Iraq war strategy is a loser...and he
will use it to his defeat in the November election.
CBS President Les Moonves should gather the employees of CBS News together and
deliver a speech. Hugh
Hewitt has a suggested text. |
