YouTube of the day: Why Vote Republican

Here are some facts that Democrats have conveniently not mentioned in their diatribes.

McClain: Clinton-N. Korea Policy A Failure

Original Article

I wonder... Why are policy failures of Bill Clinton and his administration summarily explained away with the 'he tried' excuse, but President Bush's setbacks are assailed as abject blunders. Makes you say ...hmmmmm! Anyway...as long as it last...Sen. McClain seems to be back on the team telling the unvarnished truth.

SOUTHFIELD, Mich. Republican Sen. John McCain on Tuesday accused former President Clinton, the husband of his potential 2008 White House rival, of failing to act in the 1990s to stop North Korea from developing nuclear weapons.

"I would remind Senator (Hillary) Clinton and other Democrats critical of the Bush administration's policies that the framework agreement her husband's administration negotiated was a failure," McCain said at a news conference after a campaign appearance for Republican Senate candidate Mike Bouchard.

For the funny side of the Clinton Administrations' attempts to appease the North Koreans...

Warning: YouTube is currently pandering to the Democratic Party and is very likely to censor this video because it lampoons one of their untouchables...Bill Clinton. As Barbara Streisand would say, "Shut the fuck up, can't you take a joke?"

Why Democrats' Foley Strategy Likely to Backfire

Gary Gagliardi of the Warrior Class Blog writes...

This Washington Post article quotes Bill Clinton on politics:

“All of this is a head game, you know. . . . All great contests are head games.

But Yogi Berra got the strategic math more accurately when he said:

Baseball is ninety percent mental. The other half is physical.

A strategic position exists both in the physical world and the mental world. Though you must think to grow rich, the ninety percent that is mental doesn’t depend alone on what you think. And at least fifty percent of what other people think is judged on physical reality. Strategy applies to all situations where you must foresee others’ actions correctly in order to take the correct actions yourself. If you fail to get the mental picture right, the physical mistakes soon follow.

Clinton is right judging the political mistakes of Democrats as largely mental. They consistently misjudge the electorate, no by a lot, but just by enough to keep them out of power. The recent Foley sex-message scandal is a good example. Democrats may or may not unleashed it as an October surprise, but how can the Democrats think that an extended political discussion of homosexuality and sexual misconduct breaks in their favor in the minds of the average American voter?

Democrats are not positiioned to condemn sexual misconduct in office since they spent years during the Clinton administration defending it as a private matter. There is no specific circumstance in this case: the homosexuality, the age of the pages, or the abuse of office involved that Democrats can use to say “this case is different.” In 1983, a Democratic congressman, Stubbs, admitted to having sex with a 17-year-old page. He was not only was not thrown out of Congress by the then Democratic majority, but continued to proudly run on the Democratic ticket and was reelected by his Democratic constituents until he retired over a decade later. We don’t even have to go into the more recent homosexual escapades of Barney Frank, a leader spokesperson of the party who was involved in a gay prostitution ring operating out of his house.

At least when Republican are caught behaving badly, their party quickly shows them the door instead.

Federal Budget Deficit Dropping!

Breitbart reports:

The federal budget estimate for the fiscal year just completed dropped to $250 billion, congressional estimators said Friday, as the economy continues to fuel impressive tax revenues.

The Congressional Budget Office's latest estimate is $10 billion below CBO predictions issued in August and well below a July White House prediction of $296 billion.

The improving deficit picture _ Bush predicted a $423 billion deficit in his February budget _ has been driven by better-than-expected tax receipts, especially from corporate profits, CBO said.

Georgia Gov. Sonny Perdue Leads Taylor by Double Digits

In a new ad, Lt. Governor Mark Taylor(D) claims that Gov. Sonny Perdue cut educational instruction by One billion dollars. Now... When I first heard this figure something just didn't ring quite true. Well, as the ole saying goes..."time always tells" and this time it apparently shows Mark Taylor has no problem dealing in half-truths to mislead the citizens of Georgia when he has something to gain.

Fact: Governor Perdue's Administration has increased the Educational budget of Georgia by $6 billion to $7 billion dollars since taking office. Source: Atlanta Journal - Constitution

The Good News: Mark Taylor's misleading accusations appear to be falling on deaf ears. Check out the latest Rasmussen Reports poll on the race...

Perdue has a 53% to 39% advantage over Taylor in the latest Rasmussen Reports election poll in Georgia. That's not much different that our last poll before Taylor's primary victory. As if a 14-point lead wasn't enough, Perdue began the general election campaign with $9 million in his campaign war chest while Taylor had just over $1 million.

If Taylor stays true to recent Democratic form, we will witness Taylor's unveiling of the angry, mean-spirited, "I've been victimized" Democrat who will attack Governor Perdue using some other half-truths. stay tuned...

Top 10 Democrat Sex Scandals in Congress

Since Democrats are so inclined to short memories and quick tempers, let's look at the top ten sex scandals involving the other party....

10. Sen. Daniel Inouye. The 82-year-old Hawaii Democrat was accused in the 1990s by numerous women of sexual harassment. Democrats cast doubt on the allegations and the Senate Ethics Committee dropped its investigation.

9. Former Rep. Gus Savage. The Illinois Democrat was accused of fondling a Peace Corps volunteer in 1989 while on a trip to Africa. The House Ethics Committee decided against disciplinary action in 1990.

8. Rep. Barney Frank. The outspoken Massachusetts Democrat hired a male prostitute who ran a prostitution service from Frank’s residence in the 1980s. Only two Democrats in the House of Representatives voted to censure him in 1990.

7. Former Sen. Brock Adams. The late Washington Democrat was forced to stop campaigning after numerous accusations of drugging, assault and rape, the first surfacing in 1988.

6. Former Rep. Fred Richmond. This New York Democrat was arrested in 1978 for soliciting sex from a 16-year-old. He remained in Congress and won re-election—before eventually resigning in 1982 after pleading guilty to tax evasion and drug possession.

5. Former Rep. John Young. The late Texas Democrat increased the salary of a staffer after she gave in to his sexual advances. The congressman won re-election in 1976 but lost two years later.
