It Is Certain to Be “A Dangerous Time”: 44’s First 365 “3 a.m.” Moments
By Bronwyn's Harbor on November 1, 2008 at 10:40 AM in Barack Obama, Current Affairs, Foreign Policy, John McCain, National Defense, National Security, Qualifications
We are facing the prospect of a naive and relatively uninformed young president whose world view has been largely formed by the far-left anti-American radicals he’s chosen as some of his closest friends for decades.
We are facing the risk of a president so little traveled that he had to make a whirlwind tour of Europe this summer just to get a “postcard” feel for the continent, who did not visit our gravely injured soldiers in Germany because no photographers could accompany him, and who spent most of the time prepping for a lavish rally in Berlin that was nothing more than expensive theater:
Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama paid a German company nearly $700,000 for staging, sound and lighting services at a time he delivered a speech this summer in which he declared himself a “citizen” of both the U.S. and the world… (Flopping Aces blog)
Given that the first year of a presidency is especially dangerous, American voters must ask if it is John McCain or Barack Obama who is best able to face frightening international crises that come out of the blue. Mike McConnell, National Intelligence Director, explains:
And … remember this … who do YOU want answering that phone?
You all remember Hillary’s “3 a.m.” ad that shattered the “rose-colored glasses” of many voters and led to the stark realization that she would be a steady force as our nation’s leader but that Barack Obama simply didn’t have the experience or qualifications. In three words, he isn’t ready.
Then think about this:
Today, U.S. Senator John McCain issued the following statement concerning Barack Obama’s hedging on foreign policy and Iran:
“Earlier today, when asked about efforts to prevent Iran from becoming a nuclear power, Senator Obama said he might apply tougher sanctions — ‘potentially.’
I have called for tougher sanctions against Iran for years. I have supported tougher sanctions during this campaign that Barack Obama opposed, and if elected, I would work to lead an international effort to put tougher sanctions in place — not potentially but actually.
Senator Obama last year opposed legislation with broad bipartisan support that called for tougher sanctions on Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps for its terrorist activities.
Senator Obama was also asked today about capturing Osama bin Laden — he said he would ‘try him, apply the death penalty to him where it is necessary.’ I do not know why Senator Obama would have any doubt that it is necessary. There is no one more deserving of execution than Osama bin Laden. If he survives capture, the death penalty would be necessary, just and appropriate.
Senator Obama continues to hedge his bets on national security issues showing his inexperience and weakness. Senator Obama’s comments demonstrate once again that America cannot afford untested leadership when facing the threats posed by Iran and Osama bin Laden.”
Here is what Barack Obama told Wolf Blitzer on CNN’s “Situation Room” yesterday, October 31, 2008:
CNN’S WOLF BLITZER: Senator McCain says he knows how to capture Bin Laden and he says I’ll get him, if he’s elected president. Do you know how to capture Bin Laden?
BARACK OBAMA: I’m reminded of — he said this during the debate. I think that night, maybe, Jon Stewart on Comedy Central said, you know, why have you been holding out on us over the last six years? The fact is, along with George Bush, John McCain championed the strategy that distracted us from capturing Bin Laden that focused on Iraq that had nothing to do with 9/11. And so clearly, Senator McCain doesn’t know how to capture Bin Laden because he was supportive of a huge strategic blunder when it came to accomplishing the task. I will focus on what Secretary Gates and others have indicated is our number one security threat, and that is Bin Laden and Al Qaeda. We will go after him. We will kill him or capture him, try him, apply the death penalty to him where it is necessary. That’s the threat we should have stayed focused on. That’s the threat I will focus on when I’m president.
BLITZER: Senator McCain says that if he’s elected president, Iran will not become a nuclear power. Can you make that same commitment?
OBAMA: Well, I’ve said I will do everything in my power to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons. I think it would be a game-changer. It would not be acceptable. It would be a threat to our strongest ally in the region, Israel. But it would also potentially trigger a nuclear arms race in the region. And we have to both apply much tougher diplomacy and sanctions, potentially, if they do not move in a better direction. We have to give them some inducements to walk away from their nuclear program and we should never take a military option off the table.
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
NOW PLEASE READ THIS AGAIN:
Senator Obama continues to hedge his bets on national security issues showing his inexperience and weakness.
THEN ASK YOURSELVES AGAIN:
Is it company he’s kept all these years — all those dinners, meetings, and phone calls for with Palestinian radical Rashid Khalidi, anti-American radicals Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn, and his anti-American racist minister Jeremiah Wright who consorts with the racist, anti-Jewish Minister Louis Farrahan, and many other elite liberals who hate this country — that makes Senator Obama incapable of putting country first, incapable of putting the safety of the American people first, and incapable of being tough when it is essential to the nation’s security that we be tough?
There’s Obama’s list of close friends — Rashid Khalidi, Bill Ayers, Bernardine Dohrn, Tony Rezko, Jeremiah Wright, and Father Michael Pfleger.
Then there’s McCain’s list of close friends — including Joe Lieberman and Lindsey Graham. And those are two patriotic senators who are known for (1) putting country before party, and (2) working effectively with all sensible senators who can cross the aisle.
IS IT ANY WONDER THEN THAT YESTERDAY GOVERNOR ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER SAID:
“John McCain served longer in a POW camp than his opponent has in the United States Senate. … Ladies and gentlemen, I only play an action hero in my movies, but John McCain is a real action hero.”
“The man tested in crisis.”
I believe that that is who we all should vote for, don’t you?









































Another OBAMA SHARE THE WEALTH VIDEO: Obama calls $1 Trillion tax hike a “small adjustment” by re-defining $97K family income as “upper class”
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-SavgJlBLA
The key minute: Watch from 1:15 to 2:15 for Obama’s remarkable claim that $97K family income is “upper class”
I found a video clip in which Obama totally redefines what middle/upper class income is and who should pay more taxes. He is quoted on video. I think this is newsworthy, given the current focus on Obama’s plan to tax a larger number of families. The video shows Obama directly stating this. It is far less difficult to interpret than, say, the Chicago NPR audio-only about redistributive change. This is a video that’s ready-made for a campaign spot and for video news releases. All people will understand it.
In this video, Obama defined $97,000 family income as “upper class” and subject to $1 Trillion in tax increases in debate within the last year and in policy proposals. He also makes a similar claim in writing in an Op-Ed (see below).
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-SavgJlBLA
Of course there are other videos of this same debate, Nov 2007, Las Vegas from which you can clip these quotes, but this one just puts in the context of Obama/Biden redefining Middle Class income from $250K to $200K to $150K to $97K is “upper class.” and the top group—and subject to big tax hikes.
http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/story?id=3638710&page=1
I wonder how many families with 2 or 3 kids in middle class suburbs of our major cities would consider their $97 K income to be “upper class.” If any of those kids plan to go to college, the families will hardly be living like the upper class on $97K.
Obama’s Op-Ed
http://www.qctimes.com/articles/2007/09/21/opinion/opinion/doc46f35dac127eb409456532.txt
“… raise the cap on the amount of income subject to the Social Security tax. If we kept the payroll tax rate exactly the same but applied it to all earnings and not just the first $97,500, we could virtually eliminate the entire Social Security shortfall.” – Op-Ed by Barack Obama, Quad City Times, Sep., 2007

This first post needs to be pulled back on topic so allow me to pull a jerantamiah
From Hotair Blogs
Excellent–that says it all.
Woohoo! Right on brother! You said everything I think, believe and know about this joke of a candidate.
That’s the best rant yet! Ha, thanks, I copied it and sent it on to my sister. She’ll appreciate it.
I’ve gained an even larger respect for Arnold.
His points are SOLID and rational and soulful in places I never knew he had an ability to understand
I’m glad I finally watched it.
I’m getting a bit overwhelmed from all the videos, commercials, blogs, etc……… anyone else a bit dizzy?
lol
AMEN to that!
And he’s never going to be president,
HILLARY 2012
I will not forget, that this punk made us wait for her another 4 years.
McCain 08
Hillary 12
I borrowed it, too. I hope that’s ok. I have two brothers who think I am being brainwashed by FOX News who need to see it.
AMEN….
That about sums it up. Best rant, evah.
Lol, I never did listen to this Great Speech:
He had that speech written long before Wright became a national issue.
It was rolled out at the moment they new it was needed to plug the hole made by wright.
They Knew it was going to happen and it was all planned long ago how they would deal with it.
You Betcha!
it just blows me away that people are falling for this.
They aren’t falling for it. That’s the reality. The idea that they are falling for it is the illusion that is shattering all around Obama.
I agree Shiloh…it’s all a big ole’ facade, just like those fake styrofoam columns in Denver…
true, red-blooded Americans are going to come out of the woodwork on Tuesday and we will crawl over broken glass if necessary to get to the polls and cast our votes for McCain/Palin
i think there are plenty of people who have fallen for this fakey fraud obama. i think a lot of people are starting to wake up, but i don’t think you can deny that millions have fallen for the hopey dopey empty suit.
Heh, I think you’re right, Shiloh. I’ve been looking at some very interesting internal polls the last day or so. If those numbers are even partially true, I think the nation might get a shock Tuesday night.
Today I caught a glimpse of Obama on the trail, and he has this familiar, strained look on his face. It’s the look he had before the PA primary, when the polls showed him closing, but he probably knew Hillary was getting ready to clobber him.
Many of us have been saying all along that the polls aren’t right, that they’re skewed. And the evidence I’m seeing is beginning to point in this direction more and more.
I’m thinking this Jeremiah Wright ad that’s running in battleground states might be having an effect. When they started, it was only in PA, OH and FL, but they’ve raised a lot more money and might be expanding it.
I also think that a lot of people are getting insulted by Obama’s obscene fund raising and spending – when the country is supposedly in economic crises and so many people are hurting. I’m thinking his slickly produced infomerical may be backfiring on him.
Lastly, I think the polls have missed the impact of Hillary Democrats. There is evidence in FL and PA that Hillary Democrats are going against Obama in droves.
I used to think that (they were falling for it cuz they were STUPID)
now I just think they AGREEEEEEE with it! (because they are happy about the idea of UNIVERSAL
government controleverything.which is even MORE scary!

He’s a disgrace. His behavior borders on the treasonous.
LIVE PALIN RALLY
Does Sarah mention his illegal granny?
I think Palin should lay off that one…Why open a can o worms. McCain ill work on fair and practical immigration reform when he is POTUS…imho…The mention in the press is enough…GOP has to stay focused…The Hispanic vote knows there will be a solution comin down that will be more fair than anything Barky can pretend to come up with…Barky will just ignore it
She should at least call him on his hypocrisy for talking about selfishness while leaving his elderly aunt to suffer in the Boston slums. Or maybe she shouldn’t say anything and let Obama eat himself.
no but she screwed up a few times calling Lakewood the wrong name Lakeland
either that or CNN’s logo was incorrect!
Hmmm…At his stage I think the GOP should do their thang…and stay focused. The Blurb in the papers is enough. Plain and McCain not touching it could work in their favor. Immigration Reform has not been a big PUBLIC ISSUE IN THIS GENERAL…ALTHOUGH IT IS DISCUSSED IN THE LATINO PRESS AND THE RCC CHURCHES…AND THAT IS MOSTLY PRO MCCAIN…Why open a can o worms and a distraction?…The blogs are doing it for them…It’s a strategy that GOP doesn’t need right now…imho…
Let Republicans be Republicans…lol…
Democrats have a history of underestimating them…( except for WJC of course…)
Does Sarah mention his illegal aunty?
The crowd is ENERGIZED. USA! USA! USA!
She connects.
Is the MSM covering the illegal granny? I hope they are!!!
Meant to say aunty. Come on people. I can’t watch the news but those brave enough can. Are they?
Illegal?
yep, she is here illegally, and has been donating to his campaign. that is illegal, too.
Hmmmm….his aunt, who is an illegal alien, donated to his campaign.
I wonder how many other illegal aliens contributed to his campaign?
Tip of the iceberg?
DIDN’T YOU SEE TRUTHTELLER’S SUPERB STORY JUST BELOW on the AUNT?
Amazing post and so timely!
In today’s world, trajedy can happen at warp speed!
We know now that we are vulnerable to attack.
God forbid that we are placed in reactionary mode ever again…I want leadership that will focus on national security!
Afterwards is too late!
McCain will give his all for this country, and I will proudly trust him with my vote and my life!
BREAKING NEWS RE: OBAMA AND HIS AUNT:
“Senator Obama has no knowledge of her status but obviously believes that any and all appropriate laws be followed,” Obama campaign spokesman Bill “I, like Obama, lie every time I open my mouth” Burton said in a written statement given to FOX News.
No knowledge huh? LMAO!!
What a bunch of liars!!
Obama is not his borther or sister’s keeper…he’s the grim reaper!!
NOBAMA!!
Country First!!
Didn’t he also say: “she’s not one of my advisers”?
ruh, roh. Auntie under the bus and then deported to Kenya. Now those are family values.
THIS COMMENT belongs in the STORY ABOUT THE AUNT below. NOT in this post. Please stay on topic. It is very frustrating and discouraging to the writers who work so hard on their stories that people think they can post whatever they want — ignoring 1) the relevant stories and 2) the open threads, either of which will fit the comment.
“I didn’t know”… well, it has worked for him so far. Why change a winning strategy of… “I didn’t know”, “that is not the _____ I knew”, “that is above my pay grade”. His problem is growing up nobody must have ever disciplined him at all. He thinks “I didn’t know” is acceptable. Unbelievable.
WOW I actually feel sorry for this Obama guy, he had no knowledge his aunt was here illegally and living in a slum, had no idea his pastor for 20 years was a racist freak, had no idea his buddy william ayers was a terrorist, had no idea Tony Rezco was a slumlord and tax fraud, had no idea Rashid Khalidi hated Jews, I think someone has to open up Obama’s head and see if there is anything in there, I’m thinking it’s empty
I have decided THE ONE is Master Sergeant Schultz reincarnate from Hogan’s Heroes who always said, “I hear nothing, I see nothing, I know nothing!”
He’s also a damn LIAR.
OT:
The “Honest and Open Election Hotline ” has been launched by the McCain campaign to help voters find their polling place and report fraud, and intimidation.
The phone hotline can be reached at 866-976-VOTE.
In announcing the hotline, McCain’s national political director, Mike Duhaime issued the following statement:
“The hotline will allow us to learn about and take steps toward remedying any voter irregularities at polling places across the country. While we are hopeful that Election Day will be free of any wrongdoing, allies of the Democrat Party, such as ACORN, have shown a willingness to commit fraud in both this election cycle and in 2004. Given the tightness of the polls, all examples of fraud must be addressed to preserve the integrity of the election.”
In 2004, multiple forms of voter fraud occurred, including voter intimidation, fraudulent registrations, multiple ballots cast and votes bought for money. Already during the 2008 election cycle, a dead woman in Missouri cast an absentee ballot, individuals were arrested for voting twice in Florida and people in Ohio registered and voted on the same day.
In anticipation of voting problems resulting from the combination of an expected high turnout and millions of new voters, both campaigns have lined up literally thousands of lawyers to deal with Election Day improprieties. According to the Times, the Obama campaign is expected to send at least 5,000 lawyers to Florida alone.
Fortunately there are a lot of unemployed lawyers.
and it looks like she’s “under the bus” now-
according to Fox he wants the book thrown at her
not the Auntie Z he used to know.
. . . she’s under the bus, and I suppose will soon be out of the country . . . with a big piece of duct tape on her mouth.
wonder how this will play with the Hispanic voters given the whole illegal immigrant issue in their communities and how Barry wants to help them be “legal”. That’s what happens when you try to be everything to everyone.
Xcellent Article…NQ ROCKS!
SOETEROBAMA WILL BE A DISASTER FOR FOREIGN POLICY…WHY?…NO GRAVITAS…nuff said…
FACTA NON VERBA! REPUBLICA PRIMO!
DEEDS NOT WORDS! COUNTRY FIRST!
First the half brother living in the hut in Kenya on $12 a year, then the aunt in the Boston slum. It’s just one of those stunning flashes of insight into the character of a world-class poser. Obama is a fraud and a phony and even his supporters know it. I’m hearing stories every day here in Ohio from friends and neighbors about how people they know who were for Obama are changing their minds. I know of at least four houses within a mile who have taken down Obama yard signs in the last two days.
When you prepetrate a fraud, all you have to do is make it hold up until a certain critical point. But when it cracks and collapses, it will fall fast. Obama is the Humpty-Dumpty of 2008.
I sure hope you’re right. Coffee anyone?
First, I just didn’t think anything of him. THen the shit happened in the primary that made me mad. NOw I’m just scared for this country. The guy is a fraud and we don’t need the cowardly lion making the final decision on the safety of Americans.
God Bless America, not god***** America

This is proof in the pudding to me that John McCain needs to be elected.
The thought of Obama as leader of the free world , and surely after reading this , a dangerous one, does not belong in the hands of a man will little experience and a radical past.

DON’T GO TO GRETAWIRE RIGHT NOW. INFILTRATED BY VICIOUS BOTS LIKE EPYNOMOUS. VERY VICIOUS IN TRYING TO COVER FOR OBAMA!!!!
Historically, when the bots come out like that, it usually means there is trouble in Obama world. Personally, I think that people are finally starting to take a real look at this snake oil salesman who wants to be the next President.
I’ve read a couple of places that in early voting, there appears to be no surge of young people voting. I’m shocked! I was just watching his rally NV, and I didn’t see any young faces in the crowd. Could the youngsters have gotten bored with The One and just moved on?
I’m sure the Barack of the primaries was much more fun, with the rap music at the rallies, everyone chanting Yes We Can, and occasionally dusting his opponent off his shoulder. Maybe they don’t like this new Barack in the GE, with his working class hero persona, conventional music, and all wrapped in the Flag and Mom’s Apple Pie.
Pollster John Zogby: “Is McCain making a move?
The three-day average holds steady, but McCain out polled Obama today, 48% to 47%. He is beginning to cut into Obama’s lead among independents, is now leading among blue collar voters, has strengthened his lead among investors and among men, and is walloping Obama among NASCAR voters. Joe the Plumber may get his license after all. “Obama’s lead among women declined, and it looks like it is occurring because McCain is solidifying the support of conservative women, which is something we saw last time McCain picked up in the polls. If McCain has a good day tomorrow, we will eliminate Obama’s good day three days ago, and we could really see some tightening in this rolling average. But for now, hold on.”

bronwyn, yes, arnie spoke the truth. cant imagine obama as pres. no experience, all the wrong influences. more like a radical. yeah, obama has united americans allright. total and complete polarisation. Who is he? I cant figure out if hes a communist or a fascist (far-left or far-right). He combines both.
Who knew how real all the jokes were back then, that the 3AM call would be followed with a host of phone calls to Hillary, Bill, Al, and now probably John for HELP if it’s NObama in the WH.
Oh and of course, Barry never answered the first question Wolf asked, ” Do you know how to capture Bin Laden?” He wen’t in to repeating what a comedian said about McCain.
Too bad the comedian didn’t give an answer on how he thought nObama would have captured OBL, he could have repeated that line, too.
obamawhore ben smith has been using made up stories from other repoters to call mccain supporters crazed loons. Now he says former Democratic speechwriter Wendy Button getting death threats, personal insults and creepy phone calls threatening to posion her dog are just Wendy getting a lot of “grief”:

Yup. Death threats, personal insults and creepy phone calls are what smith calls getting a lot of grief when it is oborg attacking an American. But made up stories by his fellow reporters are proof mccain supporters are crazy whackos.
Remember, Camp Obama and his surrogates PROJECT EVERYTHING. THEY ARE ADMITTIG THEY ARE CRAZED LUNATICS, not that we all don’t know that.
This shows their desperation. They’re now attacking the voters. Good way to win over support sleezeballs. Bitter, Bigots, Racist, Clingy, now selfish and lunatics. They didn’t learn from their attacks on Joe the Plumber and his “small town” comments, huh?
The Headline Speaks For Itself…
EXPLOSIVE: Hillary Clinton Accuses Obama of Voter Suppression and Intimidation
http://www.israpundit.com/2008/?p=4562
Gotta love those Passive Agressive Clinton Folks…chuckle…thanks for the link ironman….
Wow! That’s definitely explosive! And quite frankly it’s about time some of that crap came out. If anybody is curious, there’s about 2,000 affidavits floating around out there that have to do with what occurred in the Texas caucus as well.
Even though the party was already divided, Hillary would have been accused of directly causing it, if she had pushed some of this stuff during the primary. If I recall, Dean and the DNC got Hillary to agree to sit on all of those allegations – in the spirit of unity and to not hand the GOP an issue.
It is ironic that this letter – written in January – might cause big trouble for Obama right here before the election.
How can OHitler make these decisions? His FRIENDS are the ones who want America and/or Israel blown off the planet. I mean, WTF? OHitler would be getting a call that his pal Ayers needed some funding for his next bomb on the Pentagon. Wright, Farakhaan, Khalidi, all of them…their LOVE in life is ISLAM and Arab terrorist screwballs. The conversation at 3 am would be OHitler answering the phone and saying “wait, let me get to Air Force One, get in the air, and let your missiles fly…” OHitler HATES AMERICA as much as our enemies. He’s ONE OF THEM. That’s what makes this whole race a joke. HE’S ONE OF THEM.
I was just watching this and Obama has thrown his Aunt under the bus!
He basically said that secret services can with her whatever they want! Didn’t even try to come to her defense or explain why she’s living in a slum.
I read this on another forum, WOW just WOW, but hey Obama, I thought U are your brother’s keeper, remember what Michelle said “If you cant take care of your own house how can you be expected to take care of the White House” I don’t think the bus has anymore room for all the people Obama has thrown underneath it
GAME CHANGER – the thing with the Aunt…She’s been sending in like $5 contributions because she is poverty stricken and this is how OHitler TREATS HER? OMFG…This just shows what trash he is. On the OTHER side…McCain had no idea how many houses his wife owns because most of them are being lived in by family members. Rent free of course. If this doesn’t make it clear who to vote for….WTF?
Yes, McCain takes care of his family…..Obama takes care of Obama.
God, I’m scared. I’m so scared. God help us if the Obama Messiah is elected. I don’t think anything can stop this now. Patrick Fitzgerald apparently can’t or won’t get anything on him. It may be a case of too little too late. God help us. God help us.
Hey, give the guy a break on Auntie.
He explained it already.
That settles it for me, don’t ya think?
Gotta go, gotta go to a BHO rally at the cemetery, help dig those folks up so they can vote.
Later, comrades.
why is no one talking about obama’s plans for a civilian militia? why do we need this? who will it consist of? (obamazoids?)will they be armed? how much power will they have? this sounds frighteningly like hitlers brownshirts. americans need to be aware of this yet no one in the msm is questioning this.
Check this out. It is very scary and exactly why we can’t ever allow Obama or his peons to touch our government.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8sj91NH5fvw&feature=related
I cringe every time I hear someone refer to Soertoro/Obama as “a naive and relatively uninformed young president“.
He’s 47. A year older than John F. Kennedy was when he was assassinated. By age 25 Kennedy was a decorated war hero. Kennedy wrote books also, While England Slept, his published thesis which became a best seller and Profiles in Courage to name two. His political career culminated in becoming the youngest president in history.
Compared to Kennedy Sorotoro/Obama, like George W. Bush, has done nothing with his life. He was an unsuccessful community developer, an unsuccessful lawyer and and unsuccessful state Senator. No one should blame his failures on his age because Martin Luther King, Edward Kennedy and many, many others achieved so much more at a much younger age. Because of all the Obama hype, when we look at the accomplishments of so many of our leaders, Soertoro/Obama looks so weak.
Have no fear, Barack civilian army will be here.
Obama said he wants a “Civilian Army” of 250,000 people. Once that Civilian Army is in place, does anyone think that Obama will try to say that the Civilian Army is now the “standing militia”, and try to do away with the right to bear arms under the Second Amendment?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tt2yGzHfy7s
I have no idea what Senator Obama’s true intentions are with his Civilian Army – whether for good or evil. I am positive the end result will be his Civilian Army will use their power nefariously and not for the good of America.
I’m one of those people that Governor Palin scoffed at several weeks ago, who took her world tour of Europe while in college. I suspect Senator Obama shares a similar view of young adults who take off to Europe for a summer of frolic instead of community organizing.
Twenty-six years later, I still have vivid visions and memories of twelve weeks touring fifteen countries. Many are typical college fare – cheap beer on a three hour Heineken cruise of Amsterdam’s harbor – complete with drinking games against college students from Canada and Australia (the Aussies won), flirting with a gaggle of Swedish boys in an open air dance club on a Greek island, picnicking on the shores of the Adriatic near Dubrovnik, a sweet woman who didn’t speak English in a country on the other side of the Iron Curtain who stopped charging me to use the ladies room when she realized I had an urinary tract infection, purple habited nuns scurrying in formation among the streets of the Vatican, the wonder of the Sistine Chapel, the terror of Pompeii, debating South African boys about apartheid on an all night ferry crossing the Mediterranean, skipping through the von Trapp summer house in Austria singing the “Seventeen” song, the beer gardens of Germany, the madness of Ludwig and his Bavarian fairy tale castle, the beauty and apprehension experienced from an Alp cable car swinging in a strong wind, the triumph of winning $250 in a Monte Carlo casino, the beauty of a tan gained from the Spanish sun and beaches, ordering potato chips in London and receiving french fries.
All those emotions, visions and memories are as fresh as yesterday. Among the strongest are the memories of an American WWII graveyard and a concentration camp in Austria. White crosses as far as one could see nestled between serene Italian hills on a beautiful, sunny, summer morning. Gas chambers and furnaces used to terrorize and ethnic cleanse a continent and planet on a chilly, overcast, summer afternoon.
The impressions of the power and determination it took to build St. Peter’s, the Parthenon, Westminister Abbey are mixed with the images of the power and determination it took to build gas chambers and lay thousands of American and allied young men to rest in graveyards across Europe.
Hmmmm….there must be a length thingy on posts and I’ve gone over it. I’ll try posting the rest in installments.
Either the rest is showing up in on everyone else’s screens and not mine or the blog software doesn’t want to see where I was going with my post.
The rest won’t post here, I’m going to try posting the second half on “Why I voted for John McCain and Sarah Palin.

The second part of my post discussed that Senator Obama didn’t visit the concentration camps and military graveyards of Europe. He doesn’t have the emotions from those sites lingering on his skin forever. He has no emotive understanding why power needs to be guarded from evil and misuse. If he did, he would have cast off people like Ayers, Wright, etc… long before he ran for the U.S. Senate. He would understand that radicals (whether right or left) have their place in society, but when given power directly or indirectly, there is a strong risk of corruption and evil.
I’d much rather vote for the man who understands why the history of the Hoover administration is an important lesson today and tomorrow than the man who thinks history is for old fogies with no vision of hope and change for tomorrow.
guess no one has anything smart to say now, eh?
