I seem to recall during the 2004 election campaign… Those pictures of George W. Bush, with lights positioned to present a “halo” about his head.

You’re going to have a hard time proving that one.

You might find something that has been Photoshopped but nothing untouched.

The (later proven false) story about President Bush taking time off from a hospital visit to “minister to and save” a child who was a patient.

Steve you need to get rid of the “all conservatives” bit. It is old and also false. I think that every conservative that posts or comments on this blog are totally different. We are all difffernt and we are not group thinkers like the Indetity Politics that is in the Democrat Party. I think Robertson is an idiot and have never listened to what he says. I do not like McCain either, but anybody is better than the Obamassiah. He really scares me with what he could do to this country. Just think 20% inflation, Misery Index and Mailaise in the economy. Yes Dhimmi Carter II.

Can someone please link me to a GWB halo pic?

Also, since this thread’s about commander in chief stuff, what CIC policy has Pat Robertson commanded Sen McCain to follow?

Never saw the stories you refer to. Do not listen to Pat Robertson. Do not go to church. And am God Damned sick and tired of your idiotic “every single Conservative”, “100% free pass that Conservatives are required to give to George W. (B)ush”, “setting a record for fillibusters with their 100% loyalty to George W. Bush” (but democrat fillibusters are great things) lies.

All you do is religiously copy/paste your ignorance and garbage from YOUR “thought leader(s)”. All I did above was take the first part of your repeated comments and pasted them.

So let me get this straight, calling Obama the “Messiah” is bad (since evil “conservatives” say it), but you calling republican (though NOT conservative leaders) “Saint” is ok? Oh, I forgot, you are a beknighted elite leftist and we are just commoners.

You are a truly deluded yet devoted person to keep buying this crap and then religiously posting it.

Re: “But he’s the Messiah, McCain should just withdraw and let him save us.”

Conservatives loved those stories, believed them 100% and passed them everywhere.

Now, Barak Obama has generated excitement among his followers. And Conservatives cannot manage to sneer enough at this, with Messiah comments.

Remember, it was YOUR thought leader, Pat Robertson, who made the statements that “God selected George W. Bush to be president”. And every single Conservative loved it when he did.

McCain is the bestof the 2 evils left. He drinks the Manbearpig Cool aid, wants to close Gitmo and is soft on Illegal Immigration. But Obama would be devestating to our economy and our Foreign Policy. He would be Dhimmi Carter II.

There is a total disconnect that feeds those against – or complacent to – Iraq’s successful transition to Arab democracy. They fail to recognize, or believe, that anything happening in Iraq has a direct effect on their own back yards. They are just not capable of connecting those dots. And it is a direct reflection of the disturbing increase in narcissism in the US. We’re good in a crisis. But it always take a crisis to bring out that good.

Unfortunately concern with what happens to an Iraq Republic will always be a nigh on impossible sell. The US only turned a more defensive eye, willing to enter the Middle East with this aggression, in the aftermath of 911. The further removed from that day, sans more attacks on US soil, the more disconnected the dots will become to the average citizen. Understanding the global strategic overview of events and their outcomes is not in their educational make up.

This bears repeating:

There is no way to know for sure, but it seems likely that, facing less resistance, Al Qaeda in Iraq would have continued to gain strength, the fragile Iraqi Security Forces would have collapsed, as would the fragile Iraqi government, militias would have flourished–and the United States would have departed under fire, accepting a humiliating defeat in the war against al Qaeda that would have reverberated globally.

~~~
…When American strategy in a critical theater was up for grabs, John McCain proposed a highly unpopular and risky path, which he accurately predicted could lead to success. Barack Obama proposed a popular and politically safe route that would have led to an unnecessary and debilitating American defeat at the hands of al Qaeda.

And you asked: “Now the question is, reading that last sentence above, would the Obama supporters had cared about the end result? “

Of course they wouldn’t care. Anyone who did care about the end result with it’s bloodbath for innocent Iraqis, defeat for the United States and an enormously more powerful Al Queda would never be so irresponsible to support the policy that Obama backed in the first place.

For all the boo hooing about what went wrong in Iraq remember one thing: It could have been MUCH, MUCH WORSE. Obama and company pretend (fantasize) that their policy alternatives would have NO negative consquences.

Only a fool would trust them with the White House.
