“Look what the Republicans did to a genuine war hero,” Ickes said, in a reference to John Kerry.

I did some serious news research yesterday-March 31, 2008-and was shocked to see how many members of the “objective” mainstream media are even now, almost 4 years later, “reporting” that the military people who served with Jean Kerry and who DARED to question his military experience are “liars” and “smear merchants”.

No mention of course that he’s never released all of his military records to the public, only to 3 select reporters from newspapers who endorsed him for President.

What’s he hiding?

Not once to my knowledge have the Obamites floated the theory that Monicagate and Whitewater and impeachment and the various other peccadilloes that have so endeared the Clintons to us over the years should be revisited in the primary, before the Snidely Whiplashes at the RNC can use them to bludgeon Her Majesty into oblivion.

Perhaps they think that since these never sank Billy Jeff, they can’t sink her, either.

“Look what the Republicans did to a genuine war hero,” Ickes said, in a reference to John Kerry.

I’m glad I wasn’t drinking anything when I read this! Would have soaked my monitor!

remind again what a fine writer, and entertainer you are, AP.

I had the very same reaction. AP: *Respect*

“Look what the Republicans did to a genuine war hero,” Ickes said, in a reference to John Kerry.

Says the only person more to the left of Herself! and tied with Sid “The Squish” Blumenthal in loving the Clintoons.

Ickes is insane. Kerry a war hero? That jackass spent 4 months in Vietnam mining for medals and then abandoned his comrades in arms and went home trash all of us. Good lord, he wasn’t in the combat zone long enough to qualify for R&R. How that phony dolt manages to still show his face in public is beyond understanding.

John “The Gamer” Kerry, a legend in his own mind.

Just as the dust surrounding Sen. Barack Obama’s long-term association with controversial minister Rev. Jeremiah Wright has begun to settle comes new reports of the democratic presidential hopeful’s connection to another racially divisive public figure—the stridently homophobic Rev. James T. Meeks, an Illinois state senator who also serves as the pastor of Chicago’s 22,000 member strong Salem Baptist Church.

Described in a 2004 Chicago Sun Times article as someone Barack Obama regularly seeks out for “spiritual counsel”, James Meeks, who will serve as an Obama delegate at the 2008 Democratic convention in Denver, is a long-time political ally to the democratic frontrunner.

When Obama ran for the U.S. Senate in 2003, he frequently campaigned at Salem Baptist Church while Rev. Meeks appeared in television ads supporting the Illinois senator’s campaign. Later, according to the same Chicago Sun Times article, on the night after he won the Democratic primary, Sen. Obama attended bible study at Meeks’ church ‘for prayer’ and ‘to say thank you.’

Since that time, not only has Meeks himself served on Obama’s exploratory committee for the presidency and been listed on the Obama’s campaign website as one of the senator’s ‘influential black supporters’, but his church choir was called on to raise their voices in praise at a rally the night Obama announced his run for the White House back in 2007.

Interestingly, the Chicago Sun Times has also reported that both Meeks and Obama share a history of substantial campaign contributions from indicted real estate magnate Tony Rezko.

Tip of the iceberg…

Obama has the Wright scandal and “Rev.” Meeks and Wright are twins, so to speak, and both are affiliated with Obama. A person with sense would totally discount Obama, but obviously many are not to be found, because he still has scores of supporters. Of course I can not grasp that.

Hillary and Obama have enough ammunition to destroy each other.

Clinton Inc. has the nuclear weapon coming in the form of Resko. …
We’re at the tip of the iceberg here folks…

Yup, it’s the tip of the iceberg. But I think it’s Obama’s Wright wing radicalism that’s going to hurt more than Resko eventually.

Right the **** on rplat!

Obama has an arsenal of weapons by which to pull from as pieces of the Clinton kitchen sink continue to hit his ship. Obama has the media as his launching pad; Clinton Inc. didn’t expect this weapon to land on the Obama ship, therefore they have been somewhat slow with planning their attacks. But now the planning is complete, and the weapons are getting launched on a steady basis. Each time Obama launches a bomb towards the McCain ship, the bomb fails to detonate. Clinton Inc. can’t afford to waste any time launching bombs at the McCain ship; she must focus her weaponry on Obama. Clinton Inc. has the nuclear weapon coming in the form of Resko. Obama will be forced to go nuclear also, digging deep into the many skeletons in her closet.

We’re at the tip of the iceberg here folks… The Lib campaign has been fun to watch, and the best is yet to come.
OPERATION CHAOS has only just begun.

“We must destroy Obama with the Wright scandal before the GOP does”

Sounds like a plan to me, Ickes. I say go for it. And hey, why don’t you throw in Obama’s support for his trouble-making Muslim cousin in Kenya while you’re at it.

Update: Some new, fun, archived video from Newsbusters. The left’s sure going to be sore to discover that attacking McCain for his ties to Hagee now qualifies as a low blow, unfit for public discourse.

Good greif I posted that video over a month ago glad to see someone else on it

Though this is big, but old. Surely the Clintons will come up with more, at the right time.

Entelechy on April 1, 2008 at 6:37 PM

The Wright thing isn’t over. Perhaps a candid shot of Barry leaping to his feet and applauding wildly at one of the sermons he says he never attended? She’s cornered and she’s dangerous.

Harold “Ickies” name speaks for itself!
