DPW: Just The Facts Please

Posted by AJStrata on February 28th, 2006

Jim Geraghty has compiled a list of information and misinformation. Those serious about this debate should note two things:
I don’t begrudge someone for having concerns about this deal.
However, I do begrudge someone for not having their facts straight.
Actually, I ignore people who cannot get the facts straight on an issue. When I listen to […]

Rockefeller Lies - Is It A Coverup?

Posted by AJStrata on February 28th, 2006

Senator Jay Rockefeller wrote a pathetic piece in The Hill newspaper today on why Congress should play armchair general in a war. Ignoring the unconstitutionality of such a political wet dream, the Senator illustrates why we don’t want 400+ armchair Generals deciding military actions based in what will generate the most votes. Politicians aren’t open, […]

Democrats, NY Times, ACLU Align With Al Qaeda

Posted by AJStrata on February 28th, 2006

 UPDATE:
I hate WordPress 2 and its new editor interface.  When I copy a post to spell check it in word it loses all the links.  I fixed the link I lost to the original article
END UPDATE
“Democrats, NY Times, ACLU Align With Al Qaeda” - catchy title, isn’t it? Makes you wonder what twist of words […]

The UAE Demonstrates Statemanship

Posted by AJStrata on February 28th, 2006

Interestingly enough it appears that many in the UAE were prepared for our failure to discern Arab allies from Arab enemies, and in a very important way are demonstrating to us how we should be addressing the UAE-DPW issue. This is an email fellow blogger Wavemaker (how is apparently on a hiatus from blogging) received […]

Tommy Franks: Our Ally The UAE

Posted by AJStrata on February 28th, 2006

Tony Snow had General Tommy Franks the other day (which I missed) but he replayed some of the discussion with new facts about The UAE efforts as our ally. This caused me to go do some research on Tommy Franks comments. The first two are what I heard (sorry, no transcripts yet).
(1) Tony Snow Show: […]

I’m With Richard Cohen

Posted by AJStrata on February 28th, 2006

** Major Update at End: Sen Reid Endorses Michael Savage **
Mark this on your calendars, I am with Richard Cohen on the DPW issue.
There are times when President Bush sorely disappoints. Just when you might expect him to issue a malapropistic explanation, pander to his base or simply not have a clue about what […]

NY Times Covering For Rockefeller?

Posted by AJStrata on February 27th, 2006

In a blindly stupid move the NY Times is attempting to sue the US government to disclose classified, national security information regarding NSA monitoring of our enemies.
The New York Times sued the US Defense Department demanding that it hand over documents about the National Security Agency’s domestic spying program.
The Times wants a list of documents […]

Saddam Was A Threat

Posted by AJStrata on February 27th, 2006

Saddam had WMDs and an interest to use them covertly.
Democrats believed we could trust Saddam with his WMD technology and terrorist ties.
That’s all you ever need to think about when voting this fall.

Democrats Playing With Fire - Bush Will Rebound

Posted by AJStrata on February 27th, 2006

George Bush has been patiently trying to set a positive, concilliatory tone for debate in this city since he got here 5 years ago.  But the Democrats are not class acts and have no inate ability to hold a civil debate.  But to many, Bush seems a push-over.  In reality he has the calm of […]

Nick Coleman’s Inferiority Complex

Posted by AJStrata on February 27th, 2006

I have never seen such childish actions as from NickColeman of the leftwing rag Minneapolis Star Tribune.  The entire Deomcratic apparatus is trying to shut down people who have lost loved ones in Iraq and who back our efforts there.  These frightened liberals have been bashing these people for week’s now, illustrating a level of […]

Face Saving On DPW Port Deal

Posted by AJStrata on February 27th, 2006

Here is a copy of a comment I left at Captain Ed’s site on the face saving compromise for all those we went crazy in opposition to the deal after the media and liberals (Schumer? pulleeaze!) yanked their fear chains.
You know, given all the doom and gloom scenarios this means nothing. It is face […]

What Democrats Want

Posted by AJStrata on February 27th, 2006

While the panic subsides from the news a UAE company might buy a UK company and operate some terminals in some of our ports, we need reflect on what the Democrats want if we as a nation consider putting them in power in 2006. A while ago I collected the Democrats’ issues on Iraq and […]
