No al Qaeda - Saddam Connection? Think Again.

Perish the Thought


I wonder if the Iraqi Study Commission will be updated.


When the Commission found no "conclusive" evidence of a connection between al Qaeda and Saddam or Iraq, did everyone accept that finding as "conclusive?"

No. Common sense prevailed for many of us.


If the wise leaders who contributed to that Commission had a "do over," would their conclusions be any different?


Look ------- when the GWOT was initiated, there were admitted errors in the preliminary planning. But the core principles were right-on, based on available intelligence and common sense. As more of Saddam's documents are translated and more al Qaeda figure-heads are captured, more will be learned.


And confirmed, no less.

WE NEED JOE LIEBERMAN -- NOW!

Perish the Thought posts a convincing rationale for asking Joe Lieberman to either switch political parties or caucus with Republicans to STOP the dems from submitting to terrorists.

To stop Pelosi, Murtha and the defeatist dems, Harry Reid must be replaced as Senate Majority Leader. Hyscience (which Gull quotes) has Joe Lieberman's contact numbers and addresses.

Take a stand if you cherish the sacrifices of our troops and our national security. Democrats are placing a political vindetta against George Bush above their Constitutional duties to protect this nation.

We must stop Harry Reid and the surrender-crats before it is too late.

Contact Joe Lieberman if you share a concern for
funding our troops,
congress as commanders-in-chief,
enabling the enemies of this nation, and
personal vindettas above Constitutional duty.

Ask Joe to take a more proactive role in removing Harry Reid as Senate Majority Leader. He'll know what you mean. Ask him to change the balance of power in the Senate so he can work directly to promote our fight against Terrorism.

Harry Reid is the current lead-defeatist who does harm, not only to his own party, but to this nation. Dems have been unable to gag him; instead, they apologize for him and clarify what he means. That's not good enough.

Do the right thing and ask Joe to step up.

Feingold-Reid Offer Bill to Redeploy Troops -- Again

You've probably already seen the press release or read the headlines, so it's time to act.


Contact your representatives, your neighbors and your distant cousin. Ask them to join you in stopping the slow bleed of American troops and their fight against terrorism. Do it now, please. Your personal security and welfare may be at stake if the Congressional Defeatists are not told to STOP SLOW BLEEDING AMERICA!

Knowing that their war funding supplement with it's Iraq withdrawal date will be vetoed by the President, House leaders Harry Reid and Russ Feingold have another bill to offer:


(a) Transition of Mission - The President shall promptly transition the mission of United States forces in Iraq to the limited purposes set forth in subsection (d).(b) Commencement of Safe, Phased Redeployment from Iraq - The President shall commence the safe, phased redeployment of United States forces from Iraq that are not essential to the purposes set forth in subsection (d). Such redeployment shall begin not later than 120 days after the date of the enactment of this Act.(c) Prohibition on Use of Funds - No funds appropriated or otherwise made available under any provision of law may be obligated or expended to continue the deployment in Iraq of members of the United States Armed Forces after March 31, 2008.(d) Exception for Limited Purposes - The prohibition under subsection (c) shall not apply to the obligation or expenditure of funds for the limited purposes as follows:(1) To conduct targeted operations, limited in duration and scope, against members of al Qaeda and other international terrorist organizations.(2) To provide security for United States infrastructure and personnel. (3) To train and equip Iraqi security services.


Reid and Feingold can expect another veto.

Contact your representatives and let them know that our nation does not need 200+ Commanders-in-Chief. Our Constitution specifies that we have only ONE. And that one is the President of the United States.
