POPSBarack Obama Will Do The Unthinkable In London This Week With the world as his stage, Obama, 46, hopes to persuade Americans that he is ready to become commander-in-chief. His minders are determined there will be no pictures of him in a flak-jacket or tank looking wimpish — the cause of Michael Dukakis’s downfall in the 1988 White House race. A poll in The Washington Post last week showed that 72% of Americans thought McCain, a Vietnam war hero, would make a good commander-in-chief; only 48% felt the same way about Obama. Yet the global coming of the Obamessiah is manna for critics who claim the Illinois senator has embarked on a humourless cult of personality. Exhibit A last week was his po-faced reaction to a satirical cartoon on the cover of The New Yorker showing Obama as a turban-wearing Muslim and his wife Michelle with a black-power Afro, wearing military fatigues. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/us_and_americas/us_elections/article4363044.ece

POPSWar Zero Nothing Honorable About the Vietnam War
Between one and two million Vietnamese and 58,000 Americans were sent to their deaths by a succession of presidents and Congresses–fed to the flames of greed, hubris, and stupidity. The event used to justify starting the war–the Tonkin Gulf “incident”–never happened. The Vietnam War’s ideological foundation, the mantra cited to keep it going, was disproved after we lost. No Southeast Asian “dominos” fell to communism. To the contrary, the effect of the U.S. withdrawal was increased stability. When genocide broke out in neighboring Cambodia in the late 1970s, it was not the U.S., but a unified Vietnamese army–the evil communists–who stopped it. Not even General Wesley Clark, shot four times in Vietnam, is allowed to question the McCain-as-war-hero narrative. “Well, I don’t think riding in a fighter plane and getting shot down is a qualification to be president,” he argued. The Obama campaign, which sells its surrogates down the river with alarming regularity, promptly hung the former

POPSThree Servicemen sculpture in Apalachicola honors Vietnam Vets "And beyond that, he wanted the sculpture to be a heartfelt and simple thank you from the citizens of this nation to the service and sacrifice of the veterans and their families." She quoted from her husband's last public speech in May 1999, a few months before his death. "By the expressions on the faces of the intensity of the strain and the anguish that was part of the Vietnam veterans experience on the battlefield and at homecoming, and by their endurance and youthful dedication to duty, they reveal themselves as true heroes," she said. She told of how the sculptor had learned from his talks with Vietnam vets that "all treasured their deep bonds of loyalty, comradeship and interdependence," or as one veteran put it, "At first we thought we were fighting for our country but soon we came to realize we were fighting for each other."

POPS The Late Col. David Hackwoth's take on McCain's service What is very revealing is how he treats the spouses of the men who were MIA or believed to be POW. He has no compassion for them at all. I think he wants these POW to stay missing for fear that one of them may remember what he did as a POW.

POPSMcCain, complete and utter netwit It took me a couple of years with books and a recovering brain to understand computers. He has had plenty of time if he had the interest. My motivation was the search for information and I'm loving it. McCain feels he will be needing information if he becomes president. But not now?

POPSMcCain has another bad week. The sad thing is he'll still probably get elected, because the voters only listen to the fluff and razzle-dazzle and ignore the substance.

POPSChuck Hagel to Join Obama on Trip to Europe & Middle East Sen. Chuck Hagel (R) will join Obama on his trip. Some have advocated for an Obama Hagel ticket in November, arguing that such an historic ticket would be the ultimate sign that Obama intends to be the coalition building President he has promised. One thing is certain: By placing a Republican on the ticket, Obama could shave off many Republican votes, especially those already disgruntled with McCain, and and almost certainly defeat McCain in November in a rout.

POPSU.S. occupation "Now those that hate the US can condemn the US for its brutal success in defending its interests and those of other free nations around the world. But to instantly brand “Occupation” a dirty word belies the truth of history. The better economic and social system always wins...."

POPSObama: "I need to earn troops' trust" Before they can trust, they have to respect. Clinton never got the respect of the troops other than the lickspittle Gen. Wesley Clark. Similarly, this empty suit, al Qaeda sleeper cell Hussein Obama, will never gain that respect. He represents the Left who continually stabbed them in the back during the long war.
