North Carolina GOP wants apology from McCain

April 29th, 2008 . by TexasFred

Once in a while a really good rant just falls into your lap and when I got up this morning and checked my email, there was one waiting for me to blast off on, here it is…

subject: Petition: Sen. McCain, Apologize to N.C. Republicans

mailed-by: titlesarticles.com

Dear Fellow Conservative,
It’s time for John McCain to apologize to North Carolina Republicans.

Please sign our petition, at ConservativeHQ.com, calling on him to do so. (The petition is at http://conservativehq.com/active-petitions/mccain-wright-obama/.)

As you probably know, Senator McCain attacked the North Carolina GOP as “out of touch with reality and with the Republican Party” for running an ad criticizing the Rev. Jeremiah Wright and Senator Barack Obama, along with two gubernatorial candidates who endorsed Obama. He suggested that their ad was out of place in the “party of Abraham Lincoln.”

As Rush Limbaugh noted this afternoon, McCain was essentially calling North Carolina Republicans racist.

Yet even Obama admitted, yesterday on “Fox News Sunday,” that his ties to Wright are a legitimate issue. And, after Obama gave him permission, McCain chose to criticize the Democratic frontrunner’s connection with Wright.

Time after time, Senator McCain has criticized Republicans and conservatives for their legitimate criticism of Democrats and liberals. It seems that he has leapt at every opportunity to apologize for the behavior of his own party.

Isn’t it time he apologized to us? At least, he should apologize to the North Carolina Republicans whom he smeared as “out of touch with reality” and out of place in the party of Lincoln.

Of course, he won’t apologize unless there is an avalanche of demands that he do so.

That’s why it’s so important that you sign our petition, at ConservativeHQ.com (http://conservativehq.com/active-petitions/mccain-wright-obama/) and that you pass this e-mail along to your friends and others who might agree with you.

If John McCain keeps alienating himself from the people whose support he needs the most, soon there won’t be anyone left to alienate.

Please join us in calling on Senator McCain to apologize to Republicans of North Carolina.

Sincerely,
Richard A. Viguerie

And you expect McLame to actually apologize?? Many of us have tried to tell you, for quite some time, McLame is one of the Dems, he’s as much a Dem as Hillary is…

Suck it up, you’re Repubs, take it like a man, you guys put him there, DEAL WITH IT!!

And that my friends is exactly how I feel…

Why would anyone want McCain to make a LAME apology?? One that he doesn’t mean?? One that would be nothing more than a less than sincere attempt at pandering to Republicans who are so desperate in their fear that they would support this RINO, this Dem in disguise??

And so everyone understands, I have NO problem with the North Carolina GOP attacking Obama or his Rev. Wright, I took a really good shot at them myself yesterday, but the immaturity of the GOP leadership simply astounds me…

They want an apology?? From McCain?? For being a RINO?? For showing his true self?? For making it crystal clear that he is NOT what he claims to be??

John McCain has proven to me, and many real conservatives that we were right in our estimation of him, and to all those Republicans that are supporting him as if he were the 2nd coming of Christ, sit on it, you’re the ones that put him there, we had several very good REAL conservatives running early on and the Republicans did what they have done for a long time now, they fell for the party line of BS and have settled for the lesser of the evils, except in this case, I’m not too sure that McCain IS the lesser…

Wright says criticism is attack on black church

April 28th, 2008 . by TexasFred

WASHINGTON (AP) - The Rev. Jeremiah Wright says criticism surrounding his fiery sermons is an attack on the black church.

Barack Obama’s longtime pastor says he hopes the controversy will have a positive outcome and spark an honest dialogue about race in America. Wright says black church traditions are still “invisible” to many Americans, as they have been throughout the country’s history.

Wright spoke at the National Press Club Monday morning before the Washington press corps and a supportive audience of black church leaders beginning a two-day symposium.

He said the black church tradition is not bombastic or controversial, but different and misunderstood by the “dominant culture” in the United States.

Full Story Here:
Wright says criticism is attack on black church

He was misunderstood?? What he said wasn’t bombastic?? What he said wasn’t controversial?? It was just different and misunderstood??

I don’t know about you, but what I heard was The government gives them the drugs, builds bigger prisons, passes a three-strike law and then wants us to sing ‘God Bless America.’ No, no, no, God Damn America! and for those of you that won’t accept a report from the AP or ABC News as truth, here’s an even more scathing report from World Net Daily, Not God bless, but God d— America!

This is Barack Hussein Obama’s preacher and spiritual adviser, his pastor for over 20 years, this is the rhetoric that Obama has heard, and regardless of what he says, apparently he approved of it, he would have ended his association with Wright long before the 20 years or so had past otherwise…

Wright doesn’t want honest debate about racial problems in America, he wants to stir up hate and discontent, and that’s exactly what he has done, but on the bright side, he’s also given us a DEEP look at Obama’s beliefs as well, Obama did NOT come out and condemn this man for his words, and in my opinion, a lack of condemnation for those words translates into an approval of them…

Obama wants to become the president of this nation, and he has many supporters, but not all of those supporters are Americans, some are Muslim terrorists, Hamas Endorses Obama, so, you have got to ask yourself, WHY would Hamas support Barack Hussein Obama??

I think the answer is obvious, he is one of them, as one of my good friends calls him, he is a “Stealth Muzzie” and he is, in my opinion, the real life version of The Manchurian Candidate

Obama is wrong for America, he has no business leading this nation, he has, in MY opinion, no business being a Senator, but him holding that office is the direct responsibility of the citizens of Illinois and it’s their responsibility to remove him from that position…

It’s our job to keep this person OUT of the White House, it’s our job to stop this nightmare from happening and to save this nation from suffering through what I feel will be a direct move to Islamic control of this nation if Barack Hussein Obama were to be elected president…

Real Americans must unite in this effort, even if Hillary Clinton and John McCain aren’t the perfect choices for president, I don’t believe that either of them would give this nation away to Islam, I fear that Obama is waiting to do exactly that, with his Rev. Wright at his side as he does indeed cause God to DAMN America…

Green Zone attacked during sandstorm

April 27th, 2008 . by TexasFred

BAGHDAD - Militants fired a salvo of rockets or mortars at the heavily guarded Green Zone in Baghdad on Sunday, while officials reported that Iraqi security forces had found more than 100 bodies in two mass graves.

The militants apparently were taking advantage of a sandstorm that blanketed the Iraqi capital Sunday and grounded U.S. helicopters and drones that normally track their activities.

Fifty bodies were found in a mass grave in central Iraq on Sunday, a military source in the area said, and another team said it had discovered more than 50 bodies in a grave south of Baghdad on April 17.

The grave found on Sunday was in the village of al-Guba, 50 miles north of Baghdad, in the troubled Diyala province, where al-Qaida Sunni Arab militants have regrouped after being driven out of other parts of the country.

Most of the bodies had their hands bound and gunshot wounds in the head. Some were decomposed, according to the military source, who declined to be named.

A senior security spokesman in Baghdad, Major-General Qassim Moussawi, said police and Iraqi military had uncovered 51 bodies in a grave on April 17 in Mahmudiya, a town 20 miles south of Baghdad.

He added that security forces had taken them to the morgue of a local hospital and some families had already identified the victims as their relatives.

Green Zone attacked during sandstorm

I sure do wish ‘The Queen of the Bush Bots’ wasn’t avoiding me, I’d love to hear one of her “I got my information while hanging out behind the ‘O’ Club” stories, you know the stories I am talking about, the ones that she tells as Gospel about how everything is just lovely in Iraq, yeah, those stories…

These lies from the MSM are just so depressing, I had come to count on “Queenie” because of the truth and accuracy in her reporting the facts from a place she’s never been and never will go to either…

One of MY contacts, a guy that I thought was my friend, a guy that really IS in Iraq, in a capacity that’s way over the pay grade of anyone that ‘Queenie’ knows, well, he must be a liar too, just like the MSM, he tells pretty much the same stories that the MSM is putting out there, rocket and mortar attacks, references to civil war, heavy stuff in some areas, yeah, those lies, I guess he’s making it up, or, he may be having flashbacks to a time past when he was flying for Air Am, uh, doing some humanitarian work in S.E. Asia, yeah, humanitarian work, that’s the ticket!!

And we all know what liars those humanitarian types can be…

13 die in Mexico border shootouts

April 26th, 2008 . by TexasFred

TIJUANA, Mexico - Massive, running gunbattles broke out between suspected drug traffickers on the streets of this violent border city Saturday, killing 13 people and wounding nine, law enforcement officials said.

Dead bodies scattered along the road marked one of the deadliest shootouts in Mexico’s three-year-old drug warfare.

All of the dead were believed to be drug traffickers, possibly rival members of the same cartel who were trying to settle scores, said Rommel Moreno, the attorney general of Baja California state, where Tijuana is located.

Two of the dead were believed to be senior hit men for the Arellano Felix cartel and were identified by the large gold rings on their fingers. The rings carried the icon of Saint Death, a ghoulish figure that gangsters believe protects them, police said.

“Today shows we are facing a terrible war never seen before on the (U.S.-Mexico) border,” Moreno said during a news conference.

Police cordoned off all the surrounding roads, forcing workers at a nearby maquiladora to walk through the crime scene to get to work.

“Another shootout,” said a woman who gave her name only as Lisa. “There are just too many, we are so afraid.”

13 die in Mexico border shootouts

I just want to ask a couple of questions of my readers, how long do you think it will be before this type of thing spills over the border?? How long before U.S. citizens become the victims of these brainless thugs??

And it WILL happen, right here on our streets, in Hometown, USA??

And what will YOUR reaction be when it does??
