The ScrappleFace Enterprise Institute, a satirical think tank, this morning released a sequel to the popular ‘Because of Iraq‘ commercial featuring former Gen. Wesley Clark.
‘Because of Iraq II‘ expands upon the concept Clark introduced in the first commercial, encouraging Americans to ponder the consequences of President George Bush’s foreign policy.

I knew they would figure it out in time. I seems that it’s all Karl Rove’s fault! He has a secret cache of Kryptonite and had his minions secretly put a piece of it near enough to cause Superman [aka John F(unny) Kerry, who btw also served in Viet Nam] to undergo a linguistic malfunction causing ignorant folks to not understand what he thought he meant to say.
Same trick Rove used in ‘04 to steal the Presidency from Superman [aka John F(unny) Kerry, who btw also served in Viet Nam] They are currently back in Romper Room re-reading their old comic books to try and determine how their hero overcame such threats in the past.
If they can only succeed, Superman [aka John F(unny) Kerry, who btw also served in Viet Nam] might just let them start sitting at the big peoples table. eh, what?

Having been to Iraq last May, and living among the local people for several weeks, I saw first hand what hope they have now that the tyranny of Sadaam is gone.
If there is no support for them, Islamic fascists will crush and destroy them.
How about doing a bit of polling on the streets of Iraq to see how they feel?

Fact: America and Coalition forces won the war against Saddam’s regime and Saddam himself is standing trial for his crimes against humanity.
Fact: With the help of Iraq’s National Army, America and Coalition forces also won the second war against foreign terrorists.
Fact: Right now we are engaged in handing off all internal security matters to Iraq’s national government. As foreign interests we cannot win this third war unless we are willing to declare war against Islam itself and those who murder in its name. All present violence is the result of internal Islamic strife which could prove that Islam may indeed be incompatible with Democratic principles of true liberty. We could win this war through military means but it would be a Pyrrhic Victory, one in which the American people has no stomach for since it would mean killing about half of the Iraqi population steeped in the militantism of Islamic fundamentalism. Muslims are murdering Muslims in the name of Islam. That’s an irrefutable fact. We have no dog in that fight. This is something that Muslims themselves have to wake up to, their hatred for their own kind.
FACT: We are still at war with militant Islamic fundamentalism despite what happens between the Shia and Sunni sects in Iraq. We must never lose sight of the fact that Muslims are “peaceful” in spite of Islam, not because of Islam. We may be able to justify a war against militant Islam without being at war with truly “moderate Muslims”. It is important to recognize Islam as a political ideology little different than other ideologies like Nazism, socialism and fascism. We must also be ever mindful the Koran is a jihadist cookbook and what we call “radical Muslims” are actually those who are the most devout to the unvarnished teachings of the Koran.

It’s not a fact that Saddam Hussein was deposed and is standing trial as we speak for war crimes?
It’s not a fact that most of the violence in Iraq right now is sectarian–as in, Iraqis fighting Iraqis–rather than caused by foreign terrorists sent into Iraq by al-Qaeda, Iran, and Syria, as was the case two years ago?
It’s not a fact that there are more prominent leaders in the Muslim world who support Osama bin Laden than who condemn him?

The only fact that matters about Iraq is that Bush and his cadre botched the war.

Is this war worth it? If so, why don’t we increase the troops? Why not ask Americans to sacrifice?
Fact: Iraq is a mess because of Bush.

Who would have thunk it. Another liberal artist hypocrite. I heard about this story about a month ago but InstaPundit is resurrecting it again:
A familiar paradox about leftist celebrities in the entertainment industry is that their embrace of progressivism almost never includes a wholehearted embrace of progressive taxation, i.e., the principle that the richer you get, the larger the percentage of your income you ought to pay in taxes. The latest example is U2’s Bono, a committed and unusually sophisticated anti-poverty crusader who is taking surprisingly little heat for the decision by his band, U2, to relocate its music-publishing business from Ireland to the Netherlands in order to shelter its songwriting royalties from taxation.
The irony was stated in admirably stark terms by Bloomberg’s Fergal O’Brien, who reported on Oct. 16: “Bono, the rock star and campaigner against Third World debt, is asking the Irish government to contribute more to Africa. At the same time, he’s reducing tax payments that could help fund that aid.”
This ought to find its way into a revised version of the book slamming hypocrite celebrities: Do As I Say (Not As I Do): Profiles in Liberal Hypocrisy.

Bush Fails To Prevent Buffalo Blizzard
Minorities Hit Hardest
NBC News 10/14/06
As President Bush and his staff sit comfortably in the White House, the snow continued to pile up on the many poor and African-American victims in the Buffalo, NY, area who could not afford to get out of town or to safety in Florida. Crucial supplies of blankets, hot cocoa, popcorn, gold jewelry, plasma TVs, Colt 45, and dark rum — so essential to surviving the stress of any major snowstorm — lay in stores undelivered.
“Where is the government? I need my sidewalk shoveled so I can get out to buy my lottery tickets!” said one Buffalo resident from his living room. “Why are we wasting money in Iraq when we could be spending it here on me?”
Progressive blogs blasted the President for his inaction. “We find the timing terribly suspicious — just as the North Korean sanctions kick into high gear, what happens?. A major northeast Blizzard. Why now?” wrote one blogger.
Hearings into the Blizzard’s effect on hearings are almost a certainty. Howard Dean has suggested he will call for an investigation once his new medications kick in and John Kerry took a break from his vacation in Aspen to call for new legislation outlawing snowstorms. “The Republican Congress has dropped the ball once again. I have always been a staunch supporter of anti-snow legislation, except for certain locations where I ski. Snow has no business on our roads and the President and Congress know that.”
Calls for impeachment over “SnowGate” as some are calling it already are mounting as deeply as the snow itself, and what will be discovered underneath will prove to have a truly chilling effect on the Republicans, as the inevitable thaw proceeds.
This just in…
More breaking news…Jesse Jackson wants an investigation as to why snow is ALWAYS white.
It is reported that Dick Cheney has stock in Tru-Value Hardware. Do you have any idea how many SNOW SHOVELS they sold today to the unsuspecting consumer?
The American people will demand to know why FEMA has been so late in reacting to this storm. THEY SHOULD HAVE KNOWN IT WAS COMING! And yet they failed to have crews in place to fix the electricity as soon as it went off. It just shows that Bush and the Republicans just don’t care about the people in the Northeast. The Senate needs to investigate this with administration personnel under oath.
We speculate that the great junior senator from N.Y. has opened the doors of her Long Island mansion to all of the heatless poor of her neighborhood and is busy baking cookies for them while her husband applies body heat to the nearly frozen teen-aged girls.

Much like the AP story, you need to tell the whole story. The article, if it will come up, will show you the bias by making you get clear to the bottom of the article before showing the reader there is a major blackmail thing going on.
The accuser called the paper but refuses to show his evidence, meanwhile destroying this pastors life. Now, if the pastor did destroy his life, God can restore him, but before the eyes of man he will never find forgiveness.That is a sad but true trait of human nature.
In this case, time will be the verdict.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.
The president of the National Association of Evangelicals, an outspoken opponent of gay marriage, has given up his post while a church panel investigates allegations he paid a man for sex.
The Rev. Ted Haggard resigned as president of the 30 million-member association Thursday after being accused of paying the man for monthly trysts over the past three years.
Haggard, a married father of five, denied the allegations, but also stepped aside as head of his 14,000-member New Life Church pending an investigation.

The New Yuck Slimes, which never met classified security material that it didn’t publish on Page 1 above the fold, may have inadvertently confirmed Saddam’s nuclear plans. In reprinting the translated seized documents that the government posted on its website about weapons formulations, the TYMZ botched as beautifully as Kerry.
Jim Geraghty at NRO has more here.
“I think the Times editors are counting on this being spun as a “Boy, did Bush screw up” meme; the problem is, to do it, they have to knock down the “there was no threat in Iraq” meme, once and for all. Because obviously, Saddam could have sold this information to anybody, any other state, or any well-funded terrorist group that had publicly pledged to kill millions of Americans and had expressed interest in nuclear arms. You know, like, oh… al-Qaeda.
“The New York Times just tore the heart out of the antiwar argument, and they are apparently completely oblivous to it.
“The antiwar crowd is going to have to argue that the information somehow wasn’t dangerous in the hands of Saddam Hussein, but was dangerous posted on the Internet. It doesn’t work. It can’t be both no threat to America and yet also somehow a threat to America once it’s in the hands of Iran. Game, set, and match.”

I’m always amazed at those who hold to a much lower standard of behavior (homosexuality is okay, you can cheat on your family but do it secretly so it doesn’t hurt anyone, perverted sex is a private thing and doesn’t reflect on the character of the candidate, blah, blah, blah) who end up pointing fingers at those holding a much higher standard of behavior when they occasionally fail.
What’s with the pig criticizing the eagle when its feet get muddy?
Maybe we should cop the third stooge Curly’s attitude: “I have my standards … and I don’t raise them for anyone.” Imagine that, let’s all just lower our moral standards so we all come up smelling like roses.
70 Darthmeister // Nov 3, 2006 at 12:10 pm
This attempt to shame evangelical Christians into not voting because one religious leader was found to be a hypocrite regarding homosexuality is beneath the dignity of the lamestream media. For one thing the man isn’t even a candidate for political office and we don’t even know if he’s a Republican! And even if he is, so what? Is this suppose to make evangelicals decide not to vote for Republicans but rather for Democrats who in most cases literally despise devout religious people, the Bible, and the Ten Commandments of God?
But let’s put this in context, did the same lamestream media claim that based on Jesse Jackson’s adultery that this would and should depress black voter turnout? Of course not, and to have suggested such a thing would have been considered bigotted and palpably stupid in the extreme.
The sins of one fallible man cannot be laid at the feet of an entire religious movement and any real Christian who falls for this guilt-by-association tactic needs to read about King David in the Bible. Here was a man eventually described as being after “God’s own heart” despite the fact he sinned when he engaged in lies, betrayal and ultimately committed adultery with Bathsheba. How can this be? In the final analysis, King David measured himself according to God’s moral standard and REPENTED.
