what convention were you watching?

Aaww, shucks.. Me thinks you’ve offended the poor wittle wibawal..

Hehe, great work Le Shawn

But, you are very wrong about the Liberals being hostile to religious faith. Just ask any nice Muslim jihadist who he/she wants to take the White House in November…and it darn sure ain’t Bush!!!!

Isn’t it wonderful to see how accommodating the DNC and their hacks- uh, I mean friends in the media are to people of faith?

Well, Bin Laden, Al-sadr and Ibrahim Hooper’s faith, anyway…

On the conservative front, if dismantling or reforming big government is part of his strategy for 2004 to call the liberals’ bluff, I imagine that would rally true conservatives who felt “betrayed”.

On the liberal front, a couple of weeks ago, Steven den Beste wrote “A Masterstroke:

…Even if the Democrats weren’t revealing themselves as incompetent clowns, come October they would still find themselves in deep trouble.

So what I conclude is that the next Bush “masterstroke” is going to be the November election. The Republicans and the Bush administration have been biding their time, and conserving their money. They have been carefully accumulating political ammunition and have resisted the urge to expend any of it too soon. They’ve laid the groundwork for a very effective campaign this autumn, and the Democrats are going to get routed.

Last October I wrote an analysis of the American party system and primary process and tried to show why it meant that the Democrats had no hope of winning the White House next November. In that post, I said:

Any political position or locus of policies which is viable within the Democratic primary process will be fatal in the general election. Any locus of policies which would be even remotely viable in the general election (such as the one held by Lieberman) is fatal within the primary process. Like Groucho Marx, who said that he wouldn’t want to belong to any club which would have him, the Democrats will refuse to nominate any candidate who actually would have a chance of winning.

I still feel comfortable with the analysis in that article. As a presidential candidate, Kerry is deeply vulnerable. The Republicans are carefully preparing the groundwork for a full-scale assault on his greatest weaknesses. Once they open up active hostilities, it’s actually going to end up being very much like the other Bush masterstrokes, where everything changes permanently and no one can again look at the fundamental issues the same way…

Bush posing as a Trojan chimp boy, until he’s well inside the moonbat walls; stuff like this is what keeps my hopes alive.

Contary to No Child Left Behind ain’t funded rhetoric, Federal funds are over budgeted.

NCLB isn’t giving out money for lack of funding; it isn’t giving it out b/c no one has yet to meet the qualifications, let alone submit their mandated plan of action. How is this Bush’s fault when congress voted for it. Is Kerry implying that he voted for the NCLB, before he voted against it by setting the release mechanism too high?

With regards to other sources of federal education funding, every State in the Union and DC is returning unused monies to the treasury.

Gotta love union leader Andy Stern for blurting out the truth about education, the need for charter schools, vouchers, etc and about disparities in labor classism

All things remaing the same in terms of actual battles, the death toll in 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 00, 01, 02, 03, 04, 05 and beyond will have been much higher. Because everything that Kerry voted against, would have meant our soldiers would have to fight with older equipment.

Where a typical RPG would have bounced off a M1 Abrahms, the M60 crew would be dead.

Instead of the F-15/16, aircrews would be getting shot down in A-7s and F-4s.

And on it goes. Watch for Bush to come out with head to head stats on every weapon system that Kerry tried to kill.

Remember the heroic rescue by Jesse Jackson of the 3 soldiers captured by Serbia back in 99? The only thing that keep those boys alive was that they were in an armored M1114 Humvee. Had it been up to Kerry, they would have been in a Vietnam era Jeep and you know Jesse wouldn’t even bother trying to bring back their bodies.
