			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color: #52090a;">Someone posted this on a forum I belong to and I thought I&#8217;d share:</span></p>
<blockquote><p>Subject: THANK YOU OBAMA</p>
<p>Thank God for Barak Obama<br />
He destroyed the Clinton Political Machine – Driving a stake thru the heart of Hillary’s Presidential aspirations – something no Republican was ever able to do.  Remember when a Hillary Presidency scared the daylights out of you!<br />
He killed off the Kennedy Dynasty – No more Kennedy’s trolling Washington looking for booze and women wanting rides home.  American women and Freedom are safer tonight!<br />
He is destroying the Democratic Party before our eyes!</p>
<blockquote><p>Dennis Moore had never lost a race – quit<br />
Evan Bayh had never lost a race – quit<br />
Byron Dorgan – had never lost a race – quit<br />
Harry Reed &#8211; GONE (Or at least on the way out)</p></blockquote>
<p>These are just a handful of the Democrats that whose political careers Obama has destroyed! By the end of 2010 dozens more will be!<br />
In December of 2008 the Democrats were on the rise.  In the last two election cycles they had picked up 14 senate seats and 52 house seats.  The press was touting the death of the Conservative Movement and the Republican Party.</p>
<p>In one year Obama put a stop to all of this and will probably give the house, if not the senate back to the Republicans.<br />
He has completely exposed liberals and progressives for what they are.  Every Generation seems to need to relearn the lesson on why they should never actually put liberals in charge.  He is bringing home the lesson very well!</p>
<blockquote><p>Liberals tax, borrow and spend – check<br />
Liberals won’t bring themselves to protect America – check<br />
Liberals want to take over the economy – check<br />
Liberals think they know what is best for everyone – check<br />
Liberals aren’t happy till they are running YOUR life &#8211; check</p></blockquote>
<p>He has brought more Americans back to conservatism than anyone since Reagan In ONE year he rejuvenated the Conservative movement and brought out to the streets millions of Freedom Loving Americans<br />
Name me one other time in your life that you saw your friends and neighbors this interested in taking back America !<br />
In all honesty one year ago I was more afraid than I had ever been in my life.  Not of the economy but of the direction our country was going.  I thought Americans had forgotten what this country was all about.  My neighbors, friends, strangers proved to me that my lack of confidence of the Greatness and Wisdom of the American people was flat out wrong.</p>
<p>When the American People wake up, no smooth talking teleprompter reader can fool them!<br />
Barak Obama woke up these Great Americans<br />
Again I want say Thank you Barak Obama!</p></blockquote>
<p>Aint that the truth&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In 2006, America elected a Democratic majority in the House and Senate, the country blames Bush</p>
<p>The democrats spent the next two years blocking, and railing against the POTUS in the media, on the net and on blogs, Blaming Bush</p>
<p>The Democrats took control of the House and Senate in GOOD economic times, unemployment was at less than 5% . Do not mention Bush.</p>
<p>By early 2008, the signs of an economic collapse were evident, but the national battle cry was blame George Bush.</p>
<p>Then came the election of 2008.</p>
<p>Americans then gave Democrats MORE power, and elected them to a super majority.</p>
<p>By the middle of 2009, the economy was in free fall, deficits rose to never before heights, unemployment was around 9.5%. Still Blaming Bush</p>
<p>By the end of 2009, Unemployment hit 10.2%, more spending ensues. Still blaming Bush</p>
<p>By the 3<sup>rd</sup> month of 2010, the unemployment figure has dropped to 9.7% spending ensues. NOW, the Democrats are serious about helping to create jobs. They just passed an extension of unemployment benefits, and will take the next 2 months to ram down health care reform, they will also tackle Illegal Immigration. Spending ensues, taxes are being raised, and unemployment forecasts are grim to say the least. Still Blaming Bush</p>
<p>Is there anyway possible to give the Democrats MORE power? I mean that must be the problem right….</p>
<p>In November 2010, it’s time to reverse course. We must reverse course or our nation will cease to exist. The progressive Democrat ideals are putting us into 3<sup>rd</sup> world status fast and if we don’t fix it this year hope is lost.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I hate to say I told you so, but <strong>I told you so. </strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Attention Tea Party Faithful, this is a deliberate attempt to divide and conquer and it&#8217;s so &#8220;Transparent&#8221; it&#8217;s pathetic.</strong></span></p>
<blockquote><p><a href="http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/03/05/president-meet-key-senators-week-immigration/?utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Feed%253A+foxnews%252Fpolitics+%2528Text+-+Politics%2529?test=latestnews" target="_blank"><strong>Obama to Meet With Key Senators Next Week on Immigration</strong></a></p>
<p>WASHINGTON &#8212; President Barack Obama plans to focus attention on immigration next week by meeting at the White House with two senators crafting a bill on the issue.</p>
<p>White House spokesman Nicholas Shapiro said Obama will meet with Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York and Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina on Monday.</p>
<p>The president is &#8220;looking forward to hearing more about their efforts toward producing a bipartisan bill,&#8221; Shapiro said Friday.</p>
<p>The meeting will be the first Obama has had with Schumer and Graham on the proposal they are developing since they began focusing on it last year.</p>
<p>Immigration has taken a back seat to the economy and health care on Obama&#8217;s agenda since he took office just over a year ago. Immigrants and their advocates &#8212; promised by then-candidate Obama that he would tackle the issue in his first year as president &#8212; have been growing frustrated by the inaction.</p></blockquote>
<p>Our good RINO Lindsey Graham will undoubtedly sign on to an <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">amnesty</span> immigration bill which will produce outrage in the tea party movement. It will also invoke hurt feelings, bad blood and anger from all different factions of the tea party movement.</p>
<p>This is exactly what I was warning folks about. Don&#8217;t get distracted, don&#8217;t let them put a divider in the party and diminish the power of the movement. Do you honestly believe Obama wants to push this NOW? Nope, he&#8217;s doing it for 2 reasons.</p>
<blockquote><p>1.The tea party is scarring the Democrats.</p>
<p>2. IF he can push through an amnesty program, he&#8217;ll have something to take back to his progressive libturd base on the campaign trail. All he has now is &#8220;Saved or created&#8221; jobs that is debatable at best.</p></blockquote>
<p>Obama, Carville, and Clinton&#8217;s job now is &#8220;Divide the tea party and get health care rammed through, then the Dems retain power in the house/senate.&#8221; That&#8217;s what they think&#8230;</p>
<p>Carville and Clinton are working together to destroy the Tea party, they are pushing the liberal progressive agenda full tilt and they know immigration is a hot button issue, it will do a couple of things as well. Discussing this issue now takes the attention away from health care, it allows Obama and his supporters to say &#8220;Look what we accomplished&#8221;&#8230;. The truth is what they are accomplishing is the total destruction of our country and we need to stop his progressive ass.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s no mystery what causes companies to leave California &#8212; high taxes, undue regulation, workers’ comp costs, a legal environment stacked against businesses, and lengthy and costly construction permitting requirements.</p>
<p>Other contributing factors include agencies being staffed with individuals unsympathetic or even hostile to business concerns. Wildly excessive government spending contributes to unpredictable government behavior at the state level and also the local level.</p>
<p>A California blogger has put together a list of 100 businesses that have left California due to the anti-business climate of this state.</p>
<p>The important thing to remember is, when jobs leaves a state with it goes state revenue. All of that revenue that would be spent on education, PD, fire, infrastructure and even the pet projects of the elected officials disappears&#8230;.So what happens then? THEN the state &#8220;Borrows money&#8221; to keep doing the same stuff with less money&#8230;NOW California is BANKRUPT, and business keep leaving, due to the climate of &#8220;Hate the rich, tax the middle, and give to the undeserving&#8221;&#8230;..</p>
<p>Check this out:<br />
From <a href="http://thebusinessrelocationcoach.blogspot.com/2010/02/californias-hostile-business-climate.html">The Business Relocation Coach</a></p>
<blockquote><p>Apparently, No state agency keeps track of enterprises that move out of California or which companies elect to expand in other states even though they are headquartered here. That lack of knowledge is quite convenient for elected officials who deny that state&#8217;s anti-business attitudes and policies hurt commercial enterprises. Hence, without a central repository, it&#8217;s difficult to determine how many jobs are lost specifically because of California&#8217;s unfriendly business environment.</p>
<p>In this blog, I&#8217;ve attempted to note facility moves and disinvestments in California on a catch-as-catch can basis based on incomplete media reports. Below is a roundup of activity that I&#8217;ve been able to find since I started this blog in July, 2009. This imperfect and incomplete list of <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>100 moving-out-of-state events</strong></span> is the &#8220;tip of the iceberg&#8221; about the loss of commercial enterprises in California:</p>
<ul>
<li>Abraxis Health, a unit of Los Angeles-based Abraxis BioScience Inc., opened a new plant that will create 200 jobs in 2010 &#8212; in Phoenix. This follows the company&#8217;s Phoenix expansions that occurred in 2007 and 2008.</li>
<li>Alza Corp. in 2007 eliminated about 600 jobs in drug R&amp;D while also exiting its Mountain View, Calif., HQ. At the time the company said that its 1,200-person Vacaville facility will continue to operate. But the Vacaville Reporter on Oct. 23, 2009 revealed that the plant is being offered for sale by J&amp;J, its parent company. It&#8217;s unclear if more layoffs are in the facility&#8217;s future.</li>
<li>American AVK, a producer of fire hydrants and other water-related  products, moved from Fresno to Minden, Nevada.</li>
<li>American Racing moved its auto-wheel production to Mexico, ending  most of its 47-year operation in California.</li>
<li>Apple Computer has expanded in other states, most recently with a $1  billion facility planned for North Carolina.</li>
<li>Audix Corporation relocated from Redwood City, Calif., and to accommodate growth moved to a 78,000-square-foot facility in Wilson, Oregon.</li>
<li>Apria Healthcare Group of Lake Forest is shifting jobs from  California to Overland Park, Kansas, a K.C. suburb.</li>
<li>Assurant Inc. cut 325 jobs in Orange County and consolidated  positions in Georgia, Ohio and South Carolina.</li>
<li>Automobile Club of Southern California placed 1,100 jobs in Texas.</li>
<li>Barefoot Motors, a small &#8220;green&#8221; manufacturer, moved from Sonoma and  will grow in Ashland, Oregon.</li>
<li>Bazz Houston Co. located in Garden Grove, has slowly been building a workforce of about 35 people in Tijuana. In early 2010 the company said it expects to move more jobs to Mexico, citing cost and regulatory difficulties in Southern California.</li>
<li>Beckman Coulter, a biomedical test equipment manufacturer headquartered in Brea, relocated part of its Palo Alto facilities to Indianapolis, Indiana, two years ago. In early 2010, it&#8217;s making a multimillion-dollar investment to expand and create up to 100 new jobs in Indiana. The company said the area offers a &#8220;favorable business environment and lower total cost of operations, plus a local work force with strong skills in both engineering and manufacturing.&#8221;</li>
</ul>
<p><span id="more-1788"></span></p>
<ul>
<li>Bild Industries Inc., which specializes in business news, directories and market reports, moved to Post Falls, Idaho, from Van Nuys, a part of the San Fernando Valley in Los Angeles.</li>
<li>Bill Miller Engineering, Ltd., suffering under the &#8220;hostile business climate&#8221; in California and Los Angeles County, moved from Harbor City to Carson City, Nevada.</li>
<li>BMC Select has conducted an unusual relocation. The company, which had shifted its headquarters from Idaho to San Francisco, relocated its H.Q. back to Boise in January 2010. The building materials distributor said that regaining its footing in Boise retained access to high-quality employees while reducing wage and occupancy costs.</li>
<li>BPI Labs, which formulates, manufactures, and fills personal care products for the health and beauty industry, relocated from Sacramento to Evanston, Wyoming, a move the company&#8217;s owner called &#8220;very successful . . . . It felt good and I’ve never looked back.”</li>
<li>Buck Knives after 62 years in San Diego moved to Post Falls, Idaho.</li>
<li>CalPortland Cement has announced in late 2009 closure of its Riverside County plant because of new environmental regulations from a state law (AB 32). The company&#8217;s CEO wrote, &#8220;A cement plant cannot be picked up and moved, but the next new plant probably won’t be built in California meaning more good, high paying manufacturing jobs will be lost to Nevada or China or somewhere.&#8221;</li>
<li>California Casualty Group left San Mateo for Colorado, cutting  operating costs to remain competitive.</li>
<li>CalStar Products Inc., headquartered in Newark, Calif., in the San Francisco Bay Area, in January 2010 was awarded $2.44 million in federal clean energy tax credits. The company said in the future it expects to build additional plants in the Mississippi Valley and the East Coast. In late 2009 CalStar opened a plant in Caledonia, Wisconsin.</li>
<li>Checks To-Go moved to Utah where workers&#8217; comp rates helped make the  troubled company healthier.</li>
<li>Chivaroli &amp; Associates, a healthcare-related insurance service based in Westlake Village, Calif., moved a regional office to Spokane, Washington.</li>
<li>CoreSite, A Carlyle Company, is delaying a Santa Clara project while  it expands its data center in Reston, Virginia.</li>
<li>Creators Syndicate may flee L.A. because it operates like a “banana  republic.”</li>
<li>Creel Printing Left Costa Mesa for Las Vegas and SoCal loses 60 more  jobs.</li>
<li>Dassault Falcon looked at building an aircraft services facility in  Riverside County but instead located in Reno.</li>
<li>DaVita Inc. moved its HQ from Los Angeles to Denver; expects to see  millions of dollars in savings over time.</li>
<li>Denny’s Corp. – the large restaurant chain – once had its headquarters in La Mirada, later in Irvine, Calif, and then moved to Spartanburg, South Carolina. In fairness, I note the move occurred in the early 1990s. However it&#8217;s noteworthy because the company was founded in California and its growth over time created HQ jobs in another state.</li>
<li>Digital Domain, the Academy-Award-winning visual effects studio based in Venice, Calif., placed new studios in Vancouver, British Columbia, and Port St. Lucie, Florida, which combined will have about 500 employees. The facilities will allow the company to reduce costs while continuing to deliver cutting-edge work.</li>
<li>Ditech, headquartered in Costa Mesa, announced in January 2010 a 269-job cut and is moving most activities to the GMAC Financial Services (parent company) headquarters in Fort Washington, Pennsylvania. In 2007, Ditech relocated some workers from Costa Mesa to Phoenix. A once robust Costa Mesa facility employing hundreds will be down to 20 or 30 workers.</li>
<li>DuPont Fabros Technology suspended a $270 million Santa Clara data  center project in favor of one in Ashburn, Virginia.</li>
<li>eBay, based in San Jose, will create 450 jobs in Draper, Utah, in a new $334 million operations, customer support and data center.</li>

The company said the move &#8220;will result in additional annualized cost savings of approximately $1 million and facilitate improvements in operating efficiency. . . .

The aggregate total of these expense reductions will increase our profitability and cash flow in this and succeeding years and, over time, substantially improve our ability to further reduce our long term debt.”</li>
<li>Facebook, based in Palo Alto, will expand in a major way in Oregon by locating a custom data center in Prineville. It will be a 147,000-square-foot facility costing $180 million and will employ 200 workers during construction and another 35 full-time once operating in 2011.</li>

<li>Lyn-Tron, Inc., a supplier of electronic hardware, moved from Los Angeles to Spokane, Wash. Their website has a rather California(ish) statement: &#8220;Our commitment is to maintain a manufacturing environment that is progressive and safe, where our employees are able to achieve their personal objectives, thereby adding to their quality of life and to the community in which they live.&#8221;</li>

<li>Race Track Chaplaincy of America started 2010 by shifting its headquarters from Los Angeles to Lexington, Kentucky. The non-profit group said it had wanted to relocate from the Hollywood Park Race Track for several reasons, one of which is the significant cost of doing business on the West Coast.</li>
<li>Red Truck Fire &amp; Safety Company left Fresno for Minden, Nevada in 2007 because of California’s myriad fees and regulations that meant &#8220;death by thousand cuts.&#8221;</li>
<li>SAIC will move its headquarters east, from San Diego to McLean, Virgina, which the Washington Post called &#8220;Another Coup for Area.&#8221; The announcement was made Sept. 24, 2009; it is unclear how many employees will move east in 2009 and 2010.</li>

<li>Twentieth Century Props of L.A. has gone out of business as  film-making has moved to lower-cost states.</li>
<li>Understand.com moved from the San Francisco Bay Area to Reno, a loss for California in that the company is a leader in web-based patient education content and shows strong growth. The company was named 2007 Innovator of the Year by a Northern publication and the company&#8217;s founder and received a media and Reno-Tahoe Young Professionals Network “20 Under 40” award and was selected as a 20/20 Business Visionary by Nevada Business Magazine.</li>

<li>USAA Insurance closed its 625-person Sacramento campus in favor of  other states.</li>
<li>Yahoo opened a data center in Quincy, Washington, a community that  now hopes to land high-tech manufacturing.</li>
</ul>
<p>The list will grow as Sacramento considers more measures that will increase corporate taxes, increase workers&#8217; comp costs, increase regulatory reporting requirements (along with higher fines for minor infractions), increase gasoline and diesel-fuel taxes, increase water rates, increase electric-power rates, and increase assorted fees that will cause services to become more expensive.</p></blockquote>
<p>Tell me is there any wonder this state is collapsing? DO you see anything similar with DC and California? Take a look at the leadership of BOTH since 2006&#8230;.Then pair that with what is happening now&#8230;.I&#8217;ll wait. IF you still don&#8217;t see the resemblance there is no hope for you.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Well, lets look back at San Fran Nan&#8217;s wonderful accomplishments since she took the House Chair. ..</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll wait until one of my libturd readers point to something positive she has done. But I&#8217;ll help with somethings I know she has been responsible for:</p>
<p>1. <strong>She&#8217;s chaired the most spendaholic congress ever.</strong></p>
<p>2. <strong>She&#8217;s chaired the congress that has added more to the national debt than any other in the history of our nation.</strong></p>
<p>3. <strong>She spent her first two years bashing GWB and missed the collapse of our economy because she was so focused on damaging the Republican party.</strong></p>
<p>4.<strong> She&#8217;s been in charge of the most corrupt congress EVER, yet no punishment has been dealt to the &#8220;D&#8221; only one slap for the &#8220;You Lie&#8221; guy from SC. oh yeah he was an R.</strong></p>
<p>5. <strong>Her district ( 8th district ) is losing at least thousand teacher jobs, while she&#8217;s busy campaigning for national health care that will ADD to the deficit..</strong>..</p>
<p>I&#8217;m sure there are more wonderful examples of her leadership skills but I think you get the point.</p>
<p>So basically, Nancy Pelosi has done nothing for HER district, and has played a large part in the destruction of our financial system. Anyone with half a brain knows that the real power when it comes to financial matters of the nation rests in the house and senate. They control the purse strings. YET, all the talk is about Obama and his agenda&#8230; WHY?</p>
<p>Obama is pushing his liberal agenda, yep that&#8217;s what ideologues do. BUT when it comes to finances, Nancy Pelosi is in charge of the credit cards and has been since 2006. I suggest WE that still believe in liberty, freedom and a Government BY THE PEOPLE FOR THE PEOPLE start giving Pelosi the credit she is due. Although I&#8217;m sure the libtard Pelosi bots that believe she&#8217;s doing the work of the people will blame it on Bush. The truth is Nancy Pelosi signed the checks, Nancy Pelosi OK&#8217;d all the spending since 2006, and Nancy Pelosi has been in charge under a very liberal President for over year now and the deficit again rose by triple. Can we afford another 2-4 years of a Pelosi led congress? I say NO.</p>
<p>Yes, Harry Reid is an accomplice to the criminal way our elected officials have acted. Time to remove BOTH of them and any RINO or Moderate DEM that went along with their liberal tax and spend agenda.</p>
<p>So Nany Pelosi, Take a bow! You have accomplished the total bankrupting of a nation, I know you had help but you are the speaker&#8230;.Applause and roses should be showered upon you&#8230; <img src='http://americanandproud.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif' alt=':roll:' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em><strong>The American Government under George Bush&#8217;s leadership went to war with Iraq, we&#8217;ve spent the last 7 years trying to bring democracy to that country. George Bush saved Millions of lives because of his actions. Had he not acted against Iraq, Iraq would have conspired with AQ and together launched a Nuclear or Bio-Chemical attack on US soil. George Bush&#8217;s actions prevented things from getting much worse in the middle east. The Bush Administration is responsible for saving or creating an atmosphere of prosperity where otherwise would be turmoil and destruction.<br />
</strong></em></p>
<p>Could you imagine the liberal response to that? But they are very accepting of Obama&#8217;s &#8220;Saved or created Millions of Jobs&#8221; statement, even though they can&#8217;t point to even 100 PRIVATE sector jobs that have been saved or created.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Heaviest Element Yet Known to Science Discovered February 15, 2010 &#8211; 14:09 ET</p>
<p>Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California has now identified with certainty the heaviest element known to science.</p>
<p>The new element, Pelosium (PL), has one neutron, 25 assistant neutrons, 88 deputy neutrons, and 198 assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an atomic mass of 312.  These 312 particles are held together by forces called morons, which are surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like particles called peons.</p>
<p>Pelosium is inert, and has no charge and no magnetism. Nevertheless, it can be detected because it impedes every reaction with which it comes into contact. A tiny amount of Pelosium can cause a reaction that would normally take less than a second, to take from 4 days to 4 years to complete.</p>
<p>Pelosium has a normal half-life of 2 years. It does not decay, but instead undergoes a biennial reorganization in which a portion of the assistant neutrons and deputy neutrons exchange places. Pelosium mass will increase over time, since each reorganization will promote many morons to become isodopes.</p>
<p>This characteristic of moron promotion leads some scientists to believe that Pelosium is formed whenever morons reach a critical concentration. This hypothetical quantity is referred to as critical morass.</p>
<p>When catalyzed with money, Pelosium becomes Senatorium, an element that radiates just as much energy as Pelosium since it has half as many peons but twice as many morons.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>Israelis Baffled by News of Defenseless US Soldiers</strong></span></p>
<p>Many Israelis want to know: why didn&#8217;t the soldiers attacked by a U.S. Army major-turned-terrorist return fire?</p>
<p>When a Muslim goes, well, Muslim in Israel he is typically shot to death by someone&#8211;say, a reserve soldier&#8211;within seconds of screaming &#8220;Allah Akbar.&#8221;</p>
<p>In contrast with the Israeli experience, it took 10 minutes before civilian police officer police officer at  Fort Hood was able to shoot and stop Muslim fanatic Nidal Malik Hasan.</p>
<p>How could that happen? How could so many people trained in the strategies and tactics of modern warfare be so defenseless?</p>
<p>The answer&#8211;and this may astonish many Americans&#8211;is that the victims were unarmed. U.S. Soldiers are not allowed to carry guns for personal protection, even on a 340-acre base quartering more than 50,000 troops.</p>
<p><strong>So it goes in brain-dead, liberal America. </strong></p>
<p>Fort Hood Hood is a &#8220;gun free&#8221; zone, thanks to regulations adopted in one of the very first acts signed into law by anti-gun President Bill Clinton in March, 1993.  <a href="http://americanandproud.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/r190_14.pdf">Click here for the file</a></p>
<p>Contrary to President Obama&#8217;s crocodile tears, his administration is bent on further disarming the U.S. Military, and all Americans. Obama and his people will not rest until every American is a sitting duck&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>POST Script: Israeli teachers, from kindergarten on up, are also armed; so, a Virginia Tech-type slaughter is highly unlikely at an Israeli university.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Israelis, who have had to combat terrorism all their lives, are not afraid of guns. They are an armed people, ready, willing, and able to defend themselves and their country.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Unlike indoctrinated Americans, paralyzed by fear and political correctness, Israelis understand that people, not guns, kill people.</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So, Biden say&#8217;s Obama&#8217;s greatest achievement is Iraq? It&#8217;s very typical of the liberal mindset to &#8220;Write History as they want it&#8221; rather than be true to it. The truth however is very different from their version of &#8220;history&#8221;&#8230;</p>
<blockquote><p><a href="http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/washington/2010/02/joe-biden-update-larry-king-iraq-obama-sarah-palin.html" target="_blank">Joe Biden Update: Iraq is Obama&#8217;s Greatest achievement </a></p>
<p>Many Americans recall the ex-Sen. Biden&#8217;s Democratic primary plans to give in to Iraq&#8217;s fractious factions and carve the country into three territories. And even more probably recall Biden&#8217;s boss&#8217; plan to halt the Iraq war years ago. As long as it got started anyway without the permission of the then state senator.</p>
<p>Plus, of course, the vehement opposition of the Nobel Prize winner to the 2007 American troop surge of you-know-who from Texas that Obama knew for certain was only going to worsen sectarian strife there. (See 2007 video here.)&#8230;.<br />
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="350" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/P_igpyewuzQ" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/P_igpyewuzQ"></embed></object></p>
<p>Well, of course, it didn&#8217;t turn out that way, thanks in large measure to the brave service of hundreds of thousands of U.S. troops who served in that war-torn land and helped peace to break out despite the loud political acrimony back home over their role.</p>
<p>Now, the Obama-Biden pair that opposed the Iraq war and its tactics and predicted their failure is prepared to accept credit for its success.</p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #800000;">Regardless of how you feel about the Iraq war, these two asshats had nothing to do with it&#8217;s so-called success. IF America&#8217;s fighting force is removed and Iraq falls into total chaos (Worse than it is now) THEN yes Biden and Obama can claim credit for it. IF We leave and everything is fine and a new democracy is formed in the heart of the middle east. The credit for it&#8217;s success rests with GWB and his admin. The only thing Obama and Biden did was provide additional hope for the enemies of freedom and the terrorist network that had developed in Iraq after the war began. The liberals are again on the wrong side of history and thanks to modern technology, their LIES are captured and their actions are widely known.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;">Obama is now in charge of the most awesome war fighting machine in the world and I for one am scared shitless because his actions to this point have been 100% bass akwards&#8230; Try again Obama and Biden, look for another &#8220;Success&#8221;&#8230;.</span></p>
