There Are No Innocents: The Ayers Tapes Part 2
Cross posted at: TexasDarlin Blog
Barack Obama wants you to believe that there is nothing sinister to him hanging around American terrorists. It is as if he thinks that we all have our closet terrorist friends, being the dumb small town bitter hicks that we are. But contrary to Obama’s completely out of touch misinformed viewpoint, most Americans have no respect for or patience with members of groups that declare war on the United States of America. And some of us believe strongly that an American that declares war on this country is a traitor and should be punished as a traitor. But not Barack Obama. He believes that it is cool to go over to their house to have a political fundraiser. He thinks that we should accept paid positions serving on the same boards with them. And he believes that it is ok if his children associate with these unrepentant American terrorists.
Of course Obama thinks that he has a perfectly good excuse for not having his associations with these people mean anything. As he stated during the last debate:
Transcript: Obama and Clinton Debate
And the notion that somehow as a consequence of me knowing somebody who engaged in detestable acts 40 years ago, when I was 8 years old, somehow reflects on me and my values doesn’t make much sense, George.
8 years old? Isn’t that when he said he was in the process of formulating his superior foreign policy skills? When he was an 8 year old child in Indonesia? Should we take Senator Obama at his word that he was a child prodigy who somehow managed to develop vastly superior foreign policy experience at that age? If so, then it wouldn’t be a stretch of the imagination to suppose that he also formed his political morals at that age as well. Wasn’t the Autobiography of Malcolm X his favorite book? I know I heard him say that on more than one occasion. Whitey = The Devil.
Authorization to Use Misleading Falsehoods
On this sad 5th anniversary of the war in Iraq it is time to come clean, time to set the record straight and time to unify in our heartfelt deep opposition to this war. Unintended collateral damage is an inevitable consequence of war. Sometimes innocents are destroyed. That is just the nature of it all. But today I want to redeem one particular innocent that has been riddled with more bullets and blown up with more bombs than anyone I can think of in recent history. The person I speak of is a brave soul, a smart person that has fought a lifetime to bring the hope of a better life to all Americans. The person I am here to redeem today is Hillary Clinton.
Much has been made about the failure to find any Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq. As this was the whole purpose of the war to begin with I find it necessary to examine the facts of the times as they existed on the ground prior to the invasion. The most overlooked fact of all of this is why we thought that Iraq had WMDs. Well the answer to that is both simple and complicated. First the simple:
After the Iranian takeover of our Embassy in 1979 the United States started looking for an ally in the region to help stem the tide of Islamic fundamentalism. The person that offered to halt this was Saddam Hussein of Iraq. Prior to our “relationship” with Iraq it had been placed upon the list of countries providing support for State Sponsored Terrorism. But we needed an ally and we needed someone ruthless. And Hussein fit both of those requirements.
