I loved that skit!

Thanks for reminding me of a time when SNL didn’t suck.

The oldest told them that he wants to be with the rest of the smartest Americans, in uniform.

Remember the SNL skit with Chris Farley as Newt doing Its A Wonderful Life. Hillary is President and the USS Nimitz is turned into a homeless shelter.

The electorate can’t be as stupid as she thinks they are.

can they?

Here’s your answer …..

Democrat front-runners for president are Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama and John Edwards.

Let’s not forget that Clinton ran on the promise to immediately lift the ban on open sodomy in the military- the gay vote was critical to his victory in 1992. Don’t ask, don’t tell came about as a result of the backlash when the homosexuals weren’t immediately rewarded for their efforts on Clinton’s behalf.

Senator Clinton has made the same promise this time round. Do we really want to trust the Clintons again with the well-being of our military? I don’t think so. There is a reason why the military is majority Republican.

I should have linked to Michelle’s debate coverage from that night. She nailed all of this squarely, including our National Idiot Edwards changing the subject — “It’s nawut anuuff to tawuk abaout ait, Tayum…”

Heh.

Allah, I love you, brother, but I swear you must sit around thinking about new ways to give the benefit of a million doubts to these lying douchebags.

Good Lord, man. Give me one effing statement of any kind in support of the Solomon amendment by these craptastic, pandering scumbags in the last four years, before this BS festival with Russert.

Obama, spell Solomon for us. Hillary, give us video of the scolding you gave Yale and Harvard for their ROTC failures and abject anti-Americanism. Edwards … oh, never mind you worthless douche.

This isn’t going to go over well with the Nuts. Expect some crude “Hitlerly” photoshops to pop up on Indymedia sites later today.

My sons are shooting for ROTC and NROTC scholarships and are top in their perspective classes. Their HS teachers and fellow students ask them why they want to serve in the military since they are too smart. The oldest told them that he wants to be with the rest of the smartest Americans, in uniform.

Great kids…..(proud dad posting)

Should either gain the White House, I don’t think I’ll hold my breath waiting for this to happen.

I don’t think whether we believe them matters. I think we’re better served if the Left believes them.

Even after years of Clinton lies, I remain astonished at their dishonesty.

I remain astonished that people actually want this back! What, eight years wasn’t enough?

ROTC on campuses for a military that won’t need it. That’s an easy promise.

As I noted on the night of the debate, I honestly don't think Obama knew what the Solomon Amendment was when he was asked. That's why he shifted the discussion.

Wasn’t it the Clintons who made the Marines on guard in the White House wear civilian clothes because they were put off by the sight of the Marine uniforms? Is that the same Hillary who’s gonna force universities to accept the military, a military she herseld does not accept? Is this the same Hillary who used Air Force liaison officers in the White House as waiters at her social functions? These are the same Clintons who appointed people to the Pentagon who briefed their astonished uniformed staff that they considered everyone in uniform their enemy until they proved themselves differently.

Even after years of Clinton lies, I remain astonished at their dishonesty.

It’s also completely superfluous, seeing as how Mt. Olympus has already handed down its judgment on this issue.

This is the type of completely empty political gesture you’d expect from both.

I call bs on this. The most they’ll do is give it a half assed attempt.

Of course they do . . . now, about these bridges I want to sell. We know they lie but what really bothers me is the people that believe them.

Really, more proof that they will say anything to get elected so that they can then proceed to stab us in the back .

Yeah right, and as soon as they’re elected, that’s one more promise down the toilet.
