I recall feeling good about Bush’s Ari Fleischer. But that’s a surface impression, not a matter I’ve studied deeply. In any case, Fleischer left the job early. I’m sure there’s a story behind that, but I never looked into it.

Gibbs certainly makes me sick at my stomach. A bloated, pasty guy who brainlessly mouths the party line without insight or clarity. Does anybody like this guy? I really thought he’d be canned by now.

Robert Gibbs is the worst press secretary ever. The only good one the last 20 years was Tony Snow. The rest are pathetic with Gibbs leading the pack.

You are absolutly right. For the past month I’ve been visiting iceagenow.com and it’s quite interesting. Particulary with regards to the activity of sun, there’s a lot of food for thought.

As far as the President is concerned, he will perpetuate this war without any consideration for victory. He’s coming from a place of weakness. He won’t make any decisions that would place any risk on him.

“Gibbs clarifies Afghanistan timeline”. The only thing Gibbs is capable of clarifying about Afghanistan is that it’s a country with lots of tall hills and opium poppies somewhere over there around them other countries that we’re trying to be friends with so they don’t nuke us. It also points out the Obama sycophants in the press corp, with a few exceptions, that will sit there and take being berated by a condescending Gibbs. He is an absolute disgrace to the podium from which he utters his constant Gibb-erish, and jabber.

Tammy, After hearing the Empty Mask’s speech, at West Point, I tried to put it, in historical perspective.
Do you think history would have been different, had Winston Churchill stated, in his famous speech ” We will fight on, unconquerable, until the curse of Hitler is forever lifted, from the brow of men – or until eighteen months from now – whichever comes first”?

With “commitment” like this from the once, it does not appear Senator Thompson was off the mark after all. If you listen to the Senator’s full commentary on the matter (instead of a 2 minute snipit or a couple paragraphs in the Politico) it is clear he was not talking about the war being lost as a measure of our troops or American people, he was putting full full blame at the feet of the once because he knew the once does not have his heart in this war and he knows our troops know it, our people know it and our enemy knows it, because none of the aforementioned (except the once) are stupid. That was his point. You can look in the faces of those sweet heroes at West Point during the speech. They know.

Tammy you are so right about Gov Palin!
She is a small in stature Conservative God fearing Dynamo of a woman that this country so desperately needs.
My wife and I met Gov Palin, Todd, and her parents at the Fort hood PX tonight.
What a great way to end the night!!

Hmmm…I wonder what our “exit strategy” is for Japan and Germany? If I remember correctly, WWII ended some 64 years ago!! 64 years and still no date set for a beginning of a transition there!!

Leftist social engineering is going to cost so much he can’t afford to commit to winning, in Afghanistan, and only continues there due to political considerations. It would be too damaging to have the immediate comparison and contrast with winning, by a Republican President, in Iraq, from a troop surge, where Democrats tried desperately to declare defeat, and his own simple retreat. In his rhetoric he has been, and will continue, positioning himself so as to blame someone else. After months of more disingenuous, dithering rope-a-dope, he will blame Afghanistan’s leaders. He will blame Pakistan’s leaders. Interesting that Democrats find themselves trying to argue that the tactics we are using cannot succeed, because having the troops there fuels more insurgency, when we actually did win, before Obama, and could again, using more troops.
To him the leftist social engineering is the highest priority and he never stops pushing it. He will push it even at the cost of unemployment and a worsening economy, a resurgence and flood of Islamic extremist terrorism, ignoring the growing certainty that we are in for a new ice age and possibly one of rapid onset. See the links below. He has to push the unraveled global warming hoax past the point that he is already risking a legacy of looking like a fool. I find myself speculating that there is something wrong with him. The links about the ice age are http://www.itsrainmakingtime.com/_recent/climate_part1.html and http://iceagenow.com/
It’s important to prepare. Houston had its earliest snowfall ever today. These scientists are saying to stock up on food. Listen to “It’s a cycle, it’s a cycle, it’s a cycle.”
