The US is not safe with Bush

That is the meme... that is what Russert was screaming about on IMUS today...

So where the hell are all of those so-called "Security Dems"???? This is was the one reason he was re-elected... he told the country that he could keep the US safer than the Democrats...that is not true.

So why is not Al From and Simon Rosenberg screaming that this is a failure in keeping the US safe... why??...

The Centrists like Al From, Simon Rosenberg, Joe LIEberman, Breaux and Bull Clinton... security means one thing... funding from the military industry... keeping them in enough dough to swagger around with big guns... so they keep reenforcing the credibility of the Iraq War... all advocating that the "War on Terror" a GOP construct created in a right wing "think tank"...can be won... yeah and I got a bridge in Brooklyn I wanna sell... they just want to get rich(er) by selling the Democratic party to the military lobbyists.

The only Real "Security Dem" I have seen in the past three years... has been Dean. He warned in the primaries that Iraq was no place for the National Guard. Dean warned that we were dangerously low on first responders... He warned that great photo ops like Saddam being captured did not make America safe... but our Democratic "Military Hawks" poo poo'd him... no place for dirty hippy talk.

No Dean is not a "Military Hawk" because the definition of war is a Diplomatic FAILURE ... and two ingnorant entities have decided to slug it out instead.

So... for all those Dems wringing their hands that people don't vote for Democrats is because we don't prance around bullying people... well here is the reality...

WE ARE NOT SAFE... AND HAVE NOT BEEN SINCE 9/11

All those Military-Hawks-Security-Dems are strangely silent....

Not safe with the *REPUBLICANS* (none / 0)

Take the long view: pin this on REPUBLICANISM, not on Bush, who's going down down down anyway and can't be reelected.

Re: Not safe with the *REPUBLICANS* (3.00 / 1)

I remember Dems discussing a "Kerry Cabinent" always with the Republican as Secretary of Defense... I have never seen such a blatant act of self castration...
Besides telling us how to live, think, marry, pray, vote, invest, educate our children and, die, the GOP has done a fine job of getting gov't out of our lives.

Clinton had a Republican (Bill Cohen)

And Bush even has a Democrat (Norman Mineta)

So it's not exactly unprecedented

because they wouldn't want to upset the apple cart and have a reason to Stop Roberts... at this point the mustn't even sneeze or they may be in danger of collasping this adminstration... by mistake.

This is beginning to look like a "thrown" boxing match were the "loser" props up the winner during the fight... Dems should just go ahead and take the dive... this handholding is getting too embarrasing...

really? (none / 0)

Do you even read any national security dems Parker? No. You take a swig from your bottle of conspiracy juice and jump to conclusions. Go to my site and click through some of the links. Wanna know what percentage of national security dems are silent? NONE!

Arianna steals my diary

yes I am flattered...

Ariana:

Will the Dems Ever Learn? "It's The National Security, Stupid"

  • Did the Dems learn nothing from 2004? Bush won because he had a double-digit lead on the question of who was going to keep us safer.

  • So how come the Democrats are not making the "We will protect you better" case?

  • The debacle in New Orleans contains all the elements necessary to show how Bush's misguided priorities -- especially his obsession with Iraq -- have left us far more vulnerable, unsafe, and insecure. It's the perfect opportunity to redefine national security in a way that would ironically -- by putting America first -- most appeal to the red states.

Me:


It is the SECURITY...Stupid

  • The GOP won the 2004 presidency and the swept the Congress on the fact that they were "trigger-happy"... because 9/11 scared the shit out of them and they wanted a "Bad Motherfucker" in charge who wasn't bashful about going "Mid-evil" on some terrorists ass...

  • Where the hell are all of our "Security Dems" and left-wing "Military Hawks"?

  • Thousands of people have died this past week (some estimate say 10 time the amount of 9/11), 1.5 million were made homeless and a landmass the size of Great Britain (or the size of a nuclear attack) lay in ruins and the "Security Alert" never moved up from YELLOW... so what does that tell you. This adminstration has no clue on how to keep Americans safe...
