Day By Day by Chris Muir May 22, 2008
President Bush has shown an inability to defend or even accurately communicate his policies – and much to the detriment of the GOP.
Now, John McCain is allowing the Left to portray him as a continuation of the inept Bush Administration – a Bush third term.
The President could finally help the GOP by going out on the stump to defend himself and the Republican Party. Bush needs to fight for his party and his legacy.

George W Bush Watch: Slamming Obama for Appeasement Part Two
Michael Ramirez on the Democrat Party and Jimmy Carter
The Democrats go after President Bush to protect Obama and his willingness to negotiate WITHOUT PRECONDITIONS with Iran and other terrorist states but who the President was REALLY addressing was former President Jimmy Carter.
“We did not anticipate that it would be taken that way, because its kind of hard to take it that way when you look at the actual words. … There was some anticipation that someone might say you know its an expression of rebuke to former President Carter for having met with Hamas. that was something that was anticipated but no one wrote about it or raised it.”
 So, Obama and his VP, Senator Joe Biden and the remaining Democrat cabal, plus the MSM have reacted wildly?
Barack Obama is upset at this statement by President Bush. Why? What does he disagree with? Shouldn’t he just have seconded the president’s admonition against falling for such a foolish delusion. Or does he know that his promise to talk with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad puts him in the camp of the foolish delusionists?
What else is new from a NAIVE rookie and his minions?
Obama is still at it today and McCain will respond soon.
Stay tuned……

Joe Lieberman Watch: The President Got it Exactly Right
Senator Joe Lieberman (I-Conn) speaks his mind regarding direct talks with Iran with E.D. Hill on Fox News
And, John McCain agrees.
Senator John McCain, who has been critical of President Bush on the environment and other policies this week, on Thursday morning wholeheartedly endorsed Mr. Bush’s veiled rebuke in the Israeli Knesset of Senator Barack Obama that talking to “terrorists and radicals’’ was no different than appeasing Hitler and the Nazis.
“Yes, there have been appeasers in the past, and the president is exactly right, and one of them is Neville Chamberlain,’’ Mr. McCain told reporters on his campaign bus after a speech in Columbus, Ohio. “I believe that it’s not an accident that our hostages came home from Iran when President Reagan was president of the United States. He didn’t sit down in a negotiation with the religious extremists in Iran, he made it very clear that those hostages were coming home.’’
Asked if he thought that former President Jimmy Carter, who struggled with the hostage crisis, was an appeaser, Mr. McCain replied: “I don’t know if he was an appeaser or not, but he terribly mishandled the Iranian hostage crisis.’’
Jimmy Carter botched the Iranian hostage crisis and disgraced the United States. He continues to be a disgrace.
Barack Obama is NO different than Carter in this matter. The Obama policy of unconditional talks with Iran’s Ahmadinejad: “Speak softly and let your enemies beat you with your own stick.”
Asked if he thought Mr. Obama was an appeaser — the Democratic candidate has said he would be willing to meet with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the president of Iran — Mr. McCain sidestepped and said, “I think that Barack Obama needs to explain why he wants to sit down and talk with a man who is the head of a government that is a state sponsor of terrorism, that is responsible for the killing of brave young Americans, that wants to wipe Israel off the map, who denies the Holocaust. That’s what I think Senator Obama ought to explain to the American people.’’
The Team Obama response is here. And, the Democrat Party cover Obama’s ass response is here.
The Fall Presidential debates WILL be interesting.
Now, will Hillary weigh into this flap?

George W Bush Watch: Slamming Obama for Appeasement
In a speech to Israel’s Knesset, President Bush said Thursday, ‘some seem to believe we should negotiate with terrorists and radicals.’
So, did President Bush specifically SLAM Barack Obama?
You bet he did and the Democrats are screaming BULL, particularly Senator Joe Biden who is being prominently mentioned as Obama’s Vice President choice.
DNC chair Dean calls for McCain to denounce the president’s Jerusalem comments:
Sen. Biden: “This is bullsh*t, this is malarkey.â€
Speaker Pelosi: President’s comments “beneath the dignity of the office.â€
DCCC head Rep. Emanuel: “Does the president have no shame?â€
Appeasement will be the WEDGE ISSUE the GOP will use against Obama in the fall. GOP pushback against the antiwar LEFT of the Democrat Party has just started.
Next, will come the video clips from Hillary Clinton criticizing Obama……..

John McCain Watch: “I Didn’t Vote for Bush”
With President George W. Bush’s popularity in the dumpster (what is it 28% or so?) this revelation from MORON celebrity blogger, Arianna Huffington, means what?
Doesn’t this help McCain in his race by helping him distance himself from the unpopular Bush?
Thanks Arianna. Flap knows it was an unintended consequence – dumbass.

Missile Defense Watch: Bush Wins NATO Endorsement of European Missile Defense Shield
President George Bush today won NATO’s endorsement of his proposed missile defense shield for Europe despite Russia’s opposition.
President Bush won NATO’s endorsement Thursday for his plan to build a missile defense system in Europe over Russian objections. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice called it a “breakthrough agreement” for the military alliance.
“Now it is clearly understood in the alliance that the challenges of the 21st century, the threats of the 21st century, make it necessary to have missile defense that can defend the countries of Europe,” Rice told reporters at the NATO summit.
Progress on missile defense represented perhaps the biggest boon to Bush from the NATO summit. Russia has fiercely opposed it.
Rice also noted that NATO has “also asked Russia to stop its criticism of the alliance effort and to join in the cooperative efforts that have been offered to it by the United States.”
A NATO statement calls on the alliance to explore ways in which the planned U.S. project, to be based in Poland and the Czech Republic, can be linked with future missile shields elsewhere. It says leaders should come up with recommendations to be considered at their next meeting in 2009.
The U.S. plan calls for 10 interceptor missiles based in Poland and a tracking radar site in the Czech Republic.
Kudos to the President for his steady support for missile defense for the United States and her allies.

John McCain Watch: Bush Endorses McCain for President
U.S. President George W. Bush shakes hands with Republican Presidential candidate John McCain to the White House Rose Garden in Washington, March 5, 2008. McCain secured his party’s nomination on March 4.
After wrapping up the Republican nomination for President yesterday, Senator John McCain received the endorsement of GOP President George W. Bush at the White House today.
“John showed incredible courage, strength of character and perseverance in order to get to this moment and that’s exactly what we need in a president — somebody who can handle the tough decisions, somebody who won’t flinch in the face of danger,” Bush said, appearing with McCain in the Rose Garden.
The race for the Presidency is on.
How much of a role the President will have in John McCain’s campaign is anyone’s guess due to the President’s very low poll numbers. Bush will help some.
But, except for some fundraising in red states, Flap does not expect to see W’s face at many McCain events.

The AP Lies about “Bush Lied and People Died”
Chairman of the Soros Fund Management, USA, George Soros, pauses before speaking during a seminar at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Wednesday Jan. 23, 2008.
Flap woke up to this NEWS (?) story this morning on Early Today on NBC. Why, of course President George Bush LIED over hundreds of times to lead the USA into the Iraq War. What a load of crap. There was no context, no background and no journalism.
NBC simply reported what the Associated Press and New York Times handed them.
The AP screams: Study: False statements preceded war
A study by two nonprofit journalism organizations found that President Bush and top administration officials issued hundreds of false statements about the national security threat from Iraq in the two years following the 2001 terrorist attacks.
The study concluded that the statements “were part of an orchestrated campaign that effectively galvanized public opinion and, in the process, led the nation to war under decidedly false pretenses.”
The study was posted Tuesday on the Web site of the Center for Public Integrity, which worked with the Fund for Independence in Journalism.
Hummmmm a George Soros sponsored and funded anti-war study with an agenda.
Whatever the motivation, it’s clear that the reporter, Douglas K. Daniel, paid no attention to the man behind the curtain. The Center for Public Integrity is one of many George Soros fronts. Soros pays the bills and his minions, whether they happen to work at the CPI or the Center for American Progress or Media Matters or wherever, dance to his tune. And Soros has made it his life’s work to bring down the Bush administration. He says it’s the “central focus of my life.†Do you think people paid to to “research†by a man with that stated mission are likely to deliver unbiased findings?
More crap journalism, if you can call this journalism from the Associated Press.
The RIGHT Blogosphere rips into the BIAS:
