John McCain put his life on the line for his country. Barack Obama has not. While I have never thought that military service was a prerequisite to public office, it certainly gives one a lot more experience and is an asset for the presidency. And as a bottom line, a candidate whose campaign denigrates military service shows himself as unfit for the role of Commander in Chief.

Let%u2019s point out a few things about Barack Obama:
In %u201Cthe matter of national security policy making.%u201D Barack Obama hasn%u2019t ever done anything.
In the matter of gauging your %u201Copponents%u201D, Obama wants to meet with them without preconditions despite having no national-security, military, or diplomatic experience.
Barack Obama hasn%u2019t been on the Senate Armed Services Committee.
Barack Obama hasn%u2019t had any executive experience.
Barack Obama hasn%u2019t commanded anything, in wartime or not.
Barack Obama hasn%u2019t dealt with diplomats in any capacity at all.
Barack Obama hasn%u2019t ordered the bombs to fall, although to be fair, he has associated himself with someone who has %u2014 William Ayers.
Not only can every argument Clark made get applied more to Obama than to McCain, he has now made it clear that the Obama strategy is to demean and belittle McCain%u2019s military service %u2014 and by extension, military service in general. This will undoubtedly play very well among Obama%u2019s nutcase fringe supporters as well as idiotic fired commanders of NATO, but that%u2019s a mighty thin list of voters. The rest of the nation will hear these attacks and stand aghast at the dishonorable and outrageously stupid disparagement of a lifetime of service to this nation and understand with crystal clarity the radical nature of Barack Obama and his team.

Bush is still a drunk, a cocaine user and used to be a cheerleader and yet they voted for him. The same guy who went to harvard when Bubba had to settle for ole miss and yet bubba was to dumb and retarded to realize that just because W is white don''t mean he is the same as a country boy is.

While I''''m no fan of the guy, Bush Sr was a decorated WWII pilot, with several Japanese kills to his credit.

That being said, he was a failure as a president too.

Americans do absolutely nothing to eliminate our dependency on oil except Swift Boating.

THAT''''S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU TURN THE CONGRESS OVER TO THE DIMNOWITS. In two years time, they have caused the stock market to decline, gas prices to increase and the economy to go south. Wait til they give us universal healthscare.
