Could Someone Tell Barack It Was AAZ That Got Us Into Iraq, Not WMDs - And Pass It On To Hillary

Thursday, February 28, 2008

Two presidential hopefuls, Republican John McCain and Democrat Barack Hussein Obama, are trading shots on what could, would or should be done in the future regarding the Battle for Iraq in the War on Terror.

Obama said during a debate with his Democratic opponent, Hillary Clinton, that he wants US troops out of Iraq yesterday, but might send them back in "If Al Qaeda is trying to establish a base in Iraq."

That in itself is a less than rousing statement, but wait, there's more.

McCain responded during a campaign speech that Barack should have known that Al Qaeda already is in Iraq, and we have to deal with that reality. McCain added, and I am paraphrasing here, that surrender is not an option.

Barack then said in response that the only reason Al Qaeda is in Iraq in the first place is because George Bush and John McCain started a war there.

And that my friends is where Barack Hussein Obama dug himself into a hole he will never be able to get out of, regardless of whether or not he gets the Democratic nomination.

My Two Cents: Bin Laden Offers a Truce

Al Qaeda is now offering a conditional truce (in addition to threatening more attacks, of course) and some of the moonbat crowd is actually saying that we should negotiate.

My immediate thought was of General Anthony Clement McAuliffe of the 101st Airborne, who during the Battle of the Bulge in December 1944, was offered a surrender by German forces that surrounded them. Not because of the surrounding, mind you, but because of the sentiment.

His response, which I like to believe is sanitized for posterity, was

"To the German Commander: NUTS! The American Commander."

FYI, the Americans held Bastogne.

My second thought was of the story of the Turtle and the Scorpion:

A scorpion and a turtle stood at the edge of a river. As the turtle prepared to swim across, the scorpion asked, "Will you give me a ride across?"

"Absolutely not," the turtle responded. "You are a scorpion, and you will sting me before we get to the other side."

"No I won't," the scorpion answered. "That wouldn't make any sense, because if I sting you while we cross, we'll both drown. I want to get to the other side as much as you do. So let's work together, what do you say?"

It took a while, but the scorpion finally convinced the turtle to let him ride on his back as he swam across the river. As they drew close to the opposite shore, the scorpion raised his tail and stung the turtle.

"What did you do that for?" the turtle cried. "Now we're both dead!"

The scorpion just shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'm a scorpion. It's what I do."

Bin Laden and Al Qaeda are murdering, vile terrorists. It's what they do. No amount of negotiations and hug-a-terrorist campaigns are going to change that.
