Liar Liar, Pants on Fire

Well Pelosi has the proverbial mammary gland in a ringer this time doesn't she. First she new nothing about the enhanced interogation, then she had heard of it but didn't know we were using it. Oh yeah, but she forgot that there were, not just one, but several, written records of her having been briefed extensively on the use of the enhanced interogation techniques. Not to mention the fact that she steered 25 million of the tarp funds to her husbands company. Or any of the other stunts she has pulled. Man it sucks when your own witch hunt bites you in the butt.

Obamas team seems to have a large problem with either their memory or their integrity. Our chief of homeland security put her foot in her mouth again today. So bad that CNN even reported on the call for her resignation. It was sandwiched between a story on an elephant getting lifted by a crane and some robins on the whitehouse lawn hatching. (What is with CNN and their animal stories? Did PETA take them over?)

The director of the IRS is a tax cheat, as well as several other members of the cabinet. He just can't seem to hang on to his folks. I don't dislike Obama because he's black. I dislike him because he is classic corrupt Chicago Politics in the white house mixed in with Socialist values. Maybe, like Pelosi, if we give him enough rope he will do like her and hang himself?

The awful truth - War is Ugly

It seems to me that the left wing has this outrageous idea that war can somehow be a polite affair. Our current presidents about face on the potential prosecution of former administration officials falls right in line with this. They just don't get it. War is an ugly, dirty, nasty affair, as it well should be. The horrors of war should act as a deterrent to war in the first place. We should not treat war lightly or with casual indifference, but with a cautious attitude as a last resort.

The people of California should be most grateful because our "torture" of these killers prevented them from being hit. For all we know, they would be a smoking ruin without these techniques. The enemy certainly doesn't have any moral issue with cutting our peoples heads off while they scream. They have no problem raping women from their own people to gain information. I haven't seen that particular tactic in our military yet.

So let's look deeper. Why does President Obama want to out our interrogation techniques, stop the use of them, punish our officials who use them, and leave us open to more attacks? Some of my more paranoid friends say he wants us to get hit so he can use FEMA to suspend government and have a complete takeover. Others believe he wants us to get hit so he can use the opportunity to have a bigger power grab. And finally, there is the possibility that he is just that stupid. I think I fall somewhere in between my paranoid friends and the ones who think its a power grab. I think he does have a reason. Is it a messianic complex so he can appear the savior? I don't know what his reason is, but I'm pretty sure I'm not going to like it. I don't think any american lives should be lost because the left wants to make our country vulnerable.
