Bush raised terror level to claim victory? I think not.

Former Pennsylvania Governor, Republican Tom Ridge, has released a book in where he alleges that the Bush administration, or Bush himself, pushed for the terror level to be raised before the election, to push him into victory. Over 33,000 google hits register when "Bush raised terror level to win election" is punched into the search engine. Obviously, this myth has been around for a long time.

How about we debunk it. Looking at why Bush won the election, and how the terror level had nothing to do with it.

1.Bush won in Ohio, not because of rigged voting machines, but because Ohio was voting on a Constitutional amendment to ban homosexual marriage in that state, and Bush supported/supports a Federal Constitution ban on all homosexual marriage, that played well for Bush in the 2004 election, with "social Conservative Democrats".

2.The terror level was raised on August 1st (May I also add, that it was raised on August 1st, three months before election day, not on the eve of election day, but three months before hand) - November 10th to the "orange" threat level, because of intelligence pointing to a possible car bomb or attack on specific buildings in New York City & Washington D.C., this level would have been raised/remained high anyway, given the fact Osama Bin Laden released a tape right before the United States election, and flashbacks to Spain were probably in the minds of the folks at the Department of Homeland Security.

3.I would also question the motives of Tom Ridge as well, as he has been out of political power for almost four years now, considering the fact he was in public or government office for over two decades straight, and he was even talked about being the Vice President selection of John McCain, and a possible Senate candidate against Arlen Specter, I suspect he is attempting to gain attention for a possible run in the future. What better way to get the liberals on your side, then to release a book full of crap, based on President Bush.

The terror level was raised for real reasons, and the video tapes released by al Qaeda's top two terrorists right before the election, and the horrific political ploy by John Kerry (as documented by legal Insurrection) probably led to the 2004 Presidential victory for George Bush, including the social conservative vote in Ohio.

Kennedy Thinks About Kennedy

Senator Ted Kennedy is asking for the Massachusetts legislature to change the process from a special election to fill the United States Senate seat, to an appointment by the Governor of Massachusetts, he claims so the Democrats will not lose a vote, I personally believe it is so another Kennedy will be swept into power.

I personally believe in the original Constitution way of selecting Senators, that the state legislatures & governors control the process, as the United States Senate is suppose to be the direct representative of the states, and the indirect representative of the people. However, Kennedy is doing this for complete political purpose, and he is attempting to use his political capita to literally change the way United States Senators are appointed in case of death, resignation, etc.

Standing for Israel, Standing Against Radical Islam

Lets face it, the only nation in the entire world that 100% supports Israel, other than Israel of course, is the United States of America. Very shocking indeed; better yet lets ask this question - how many other nations are opposed to radical Islam, and Islam taking over their nation and enforcing Islamic laws, or 'Sharia,' which are barbaric at the least.

I really cannot think of many of them either...I know in a few nations there are some brave souls who have stood up against radical Islam, such as France with their first ever pro-American President, and Geert Wilders of the Netherlands.

A man who has been fighting against radical Islam, and even Islam in general for the past several years, he sees the dangers involved with the radical Islamic beliefs. Wilders is best known for his movie, which he created about Islam in the Netherlands, Fitna, about how radical terrorists are using lines from the Qur'an to justify their evil terrorist acts, and wanting to spread Islam all through out the world.

While the movie has been showcased on American shows such as Glenn Beck, the movie has been attacked viciously across Europe, and has led to Geert Wilders being banned from England because of his views (just like Michael Savage).

Wilders has also noted how Israel is the first line of defense against radical Islam for the western world. Not only that, but because of major differences between himself and his original party, Wilders has formed his own political party, which is the most popular in the Netherlands. Wilders personal principles also closely reflects those in American Conservative circles.

How about the Nation of Sweden? Are they pro-Israel? I highly doubt it, especially since their nation has been overrun in the past years by Islam, and has become a hot spot for anti-Israeli views. Just think about the article, written in a radical left leaning newspaper, "Our sons are used as involuntary organ donors, relatives of Khaled from Nablus said to me, as did the mother of Raed from Jenin as well as the uncles of Machmod and Nafes from Gaza, who all had disappeared for a few days and returned by night, dead and autopsied."

The Israeli foreign minister was pissed beyond belief, "Whispers in the dark. Anonymous sources. Rumors. That is all it takes. After all we all know what they [the Jews] are like, don't we: inhuman, hardened. Capable of anything," the opinion piece says. "Now all that remains is the defense, equally predictable: 'Anti-Semitism' No, no, just criticism of Israel."

The Foreign Ministry reacted angrily on Tuesday to the report. Ministry spokesperson Yigal Palmor said the newspaper's decision to publish the story is "a mark of disgrace" for the Swedish press. "

Lets face it America, we have few allies when it comes to supporting Israel, and even our own government is now anti-Israel on almost every issue. It appears we might have a few more allies when it comes to fighting against radical Islam, however......they are in the minority.

Please note : I am not anti-Muslim, I am anti-radical Islam, which the United States is currently fighting against in Afghanistan & Iraq, this has nothing to do with religion in general (I am not opposed because I am a Christian, I am opposed to radical Islamists who hate Christians, and the free world), all to do with a radical version of the Muslim religion which has become the enemy of America. If you do not understand what I just said, you are an ignorant fool who has forgotten September 11th attacks.

The Democrats Have to be Kidding

People in the Democratic party have to be smoking something, as many claim 'they are done with reaching across the political spectrum to Republicans.' My question: when did they start?

-The stimulus was rammed through without any GOP consideration.
-Cap & Tax was pushed through, with an additional 300 pages added in the middle of the night.
-The Democrats have ignored Republicans through out the health care debate, are looking at an unconstitutional procedure to pass the legislation in the Senate, and will not consider one Conservative opinion.

They complain that is time for the GOP to give some ground up. Principles mean a lot more then "reaching across the aisle, my friends", especially when that means passing an unconstitutional measure, an anti-capitalistic, anti-freedom, anti-personal responsibility, anti-American, and anti-common sense legislation. This will cost us hundreds of billions of dollars in debt, perhaps trillions, cause tens of millions to lose their current health insurance, destroy the greatest health care system in the world, and give more control of our lives to the federal government. Not to mention increase tax rates to near 60% in some spots across the Nation.

The Democratic party does not want to compromise; in consideration of this legislation, that is not even practical, given every single measure goes against Conservative principles in one fashion or another. They want to ram it down our throats, and have control over more & more Americans.

So Democrats, next time you claim you were 'working with the GOP,' go tell it to your crazies and leave us alone.
