You have got to be kidding. Obama's true colors starting to show



1. cut investments in "unproven missile defense systems." Unproven? Oh really? An Iran with missiles seeking nuclear weapons and he wants to junk the only real defense we would have against them?

2. "Not weaponize space."

Nice. Naive but nice. The Chinese and Russians will be VERY VERY glad to hear that one.

3. "Slow our development of future combat systems".

F-15 is 30 years old. Air Force is aging and needs new generation of planes. The Chinese are currently modernizing their military and are backed by a growing economy. More than a few countries liked hearing this one. By the way Barak, the next time you slam Bush for not giving troops the equipment they need I hope someone points out to you that "future combat systems" are part of that support for the troops. You do support the troops, dont' you?

4. "Set a goal of a world without nuclear weapons."

Maybe there is some truth to the rumors about his his past um, recreations. Not going to happen. The Chinese, Russians, Israelis, French, India, and Pakistan are NOT going to give up nukes. If there is one thing history teaches its that technology can't be put back in the bottle. Like it or not, we are stuck with nukes.

5. "Won't develop any new nuclear weapons".

yeah.

6. "Negotiate with Russia to take our ICBMs off Hair trigger alert."

Frickin idiot. Does the dumbass know that the Chinese DO have nuclear missile and that Chinese Generals have stated that they could use them to keep us from defending Taiwan? Or how vulnerable we would be to a few well-placed nuclear subs off our coasts? Or placing us more at risk against a rogue state with missiles and nuclear technology.

Has there been a serious Democrat Presidential candidate in the last twenty years that has held such extreme positions on national security? Bill? Hillary? Kerry? Gore?

What exactly is the problem here? I agree with everything he said. If anything, this encourages me to vote for Obama (as opposed to not voting at all).

Yeah, I'm not sure what part of this video was supposed to be surprising or upsetting, either. This has been part of his campaign since the beginning, and is a large part of the reason why he's going to be the nominee.

Like Future Combat Systems (FCS), it is a way to get a lot of money to a lot of contractors and ultimately have no functional product because there are both significant diplomatic and technical challenges.

"The projected cost of the program for the years 2004 to 2009 will be $53 billion, making it the largest single line in The Pentagon's budget."

"I don't think that the goal was ever that we would declare it was operational. I think the goal was that there would be an operational capability by the end of 2004," Pentagon representative Larry DiRita said on 2005-01-13 at a Pentagon press conference.

I'm well aware of Pentagon pork and their shell games. Believe it or not, Rumsfeld was very good at reforming that process. He just sucked at wartime leadership. Read some of Colonel Hackworth's old columns where he crucifies the pentagon and "perfumed princes" for their spending.

However, I don't think of Obama as a military reformer but rather someone who is going to gut the military and endanger national security.

Gee, sounds just like the various PMs of Britain during the 1930s.

Sounds like Carter before Afghanistan invasion.

Or Warren Christopher asking Colonel Beckwith if they had to kill the Iranians and if they could just shoot them in the leg instead when they were planning the hostage rescue mission.

I agree with you.... I want a President who puts national security on top of his list.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).

Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.

In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.

Trollfest '07

Jackson Jambalaya is the home of Trollfest '07. Catch this great event which promises to leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Sonjay Poontang and his band headline the night with a special steel cage, no time limit "loser must leave town" bout between Alan Lange and "Big Cat"Donna Ladd following afterwards. Kamikaze will perform his new song F*** Bush, he's still a _____. Did I mention there was no referee? Dr. Heddy Matthias and Lori Gregory will face off in the undercard dueling with dangling participles and other um, devices. Robbie Bell will perform Her two latest songs: My Best Friends are in the Media and Mama's, Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be George Bell. Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.

There will be a hugging booth where in exchange for your young son, Frank Melton will give you a loooong hug. Trollfest will have a dunking booth where Muhammed the terrorist will curse you to Allah as you try to hit a target that will drop him into a vat of pig grease. However, in the true spirit of Separate But Equal, Don Imus and someone from NE Jackson will also sit in the dunking booth for an equal amount of time. Tom Head will give a reading for two hours on why he can't figure out who the hell he is. Cliff Cargill will give lessons with his .80 caliber desert eagle, using Frank Melton photos as targets. Tackleberry will be on hand for an autograph session. KIM Waaaaaade will be passing out free titles and deeds to crackhouses formerly owned by The Wood Street Players.

If you get tired come relax at the Fox News Tent. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both will entitle you to free drinks.Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required, just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '07 is for EVERYONE!!!
