And Conservatives are high-fiving themselves about what a heckuva job the Bush Administration is doing.

What ever happened to, “if we’re there [Iraq] for six months, that will be too long”? (President Bush’s Secretary fo Defense Donald Rumsfeld, the man VP Dick Cheney identified as ‘the greatest Secretary of Defense in History”).

Or are Conservatives not permitted to remember that?

Flopping Aces has great commentary on Barack Obama’s presposterous statementthat he would withdraw American troops from Iraq and then re-invade Iraq if Al Qaeda establishes a base there after the withdrawal, and John McCain’s response. Recommended re…

Bill Clinton just used the War on Terror to to drum up votes for his wife according to this WSJ Story

“Given all this, why would Bill Clinton, who had ignored the 3,226 clemency petitions that had piled up on his desk over the years, suddenly reach into the stack and pluck out these 16 meritless cases? (The New York Times ran a column with the headline, “Bill’s Little Gift.”)

Hillary Rodham Clinton was in the midst of her state-wide “listening tour” in anticipation of her run for the U.S. Senate in New York, a state which included 1.3 million Hispanics. Three members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus — Luis V. Gutierrez (D., Ill.), Jose E. Serrano, (D., N.Y.) and Nydia M. Velazquez, (D., N.Y.) — along with local Hispanic politicians and leftist human-rights advocates, had been agitating for years on behalf of the FALN cases directly to the White House and first lady.”

“FALN bragged about the bloodbath, calling the victims “reactionary corporate executives” and threatening: “You have unleashed a storm from which you comfortable Yankees can’t escape.” By 1996, the FBI had linked FALN to 146 bombings and a string of armed robberies — a reign of terror that resulted in nine deaths and hundreds of injured victims.

On Aug. 7, 1999, the one-year anniversary of the U.S. African embassy bombings that killed 257 people and injured 5,000, President Bill Clinton reaffirmed his commitment to the victims of terrorism, vowing that he “will not rest until justice is done.” Four days later, while Congress was on summer recess, the White House quietly issued a press release announcing that the president was granting clemency to 16 imprisoned members of FALN. What began as a simple paragraph on the AP wire exploded into a major controversy.”

You have to read the entire article to understand just how vicious the killers Bill Clinton released were and just how far the American leftist politicians will go to show their contempt and hatred for America’s law enforcement and/or military personnel. Bravo to the brave American lady who wrote it.
