MTP and other BS

"O" premised his campaign on opposition to the war. One might use the term antiwar. An association with an antiwar radical by a candidate with no military experience is of concern and a legitimate source of debate.

Gen Powell answered questions about his continued support, even in retrospect, for the war and finishing the war. I think Powell talks to "O" about Iraq like, Bush I did to Billy about China.

And Ms. Palin. I read the interview, posted below. How many myths must she debunk before you admit a bias. Praying against Homosexuality, no. Evolution, yes. She clearly did not say she did not read a newspaper, she did not want to be locked into one and took umbrage at the obvious implied insult regarding Alaska as a backward state.

The left, don't get on their wrong side Joe. Oh, and if you owe taxes, does that preclude you from asking a very poignant question?

I don't remember the GHWB/Clinton China reference. What are you referring to?

Powell adds heft to O's campaign. It should help bring along reluctant independents.

They are saying that "undecideds", most of whom are independents, will move 2-1 to McCain on 11/4. If true, Obama needs to really work this group.

On This Week, the conversation was about the other areas of political and security dynamite. Pakistan, Iran, the battle may be over but the war continues. Gen. P, feels the war in Afghanistan is unwinnable. I remain amazed by the shortsightedness of my pacifists co-bloggers.

Clinton was posturing against free trade with China, who you will remember was a special interest of B-I.

Jim:

Gotcha - good, because we don't want to leave prematurely. I'm delighted with the Iraq Agreement.

Say what you will about O, you must admit he surrounds himself with a quality crowd.

Who are you referring to as a quality crowd? Reverend Wright or Bill Ayers?
