The Arrogance, Ignorance of The Left.

Hey folks,

Good Thursday morning to you. This is what you should expect, the complete arrogance and ignorance of the Left. Examples like these for the next two years. Make no mistake about it, this is NOT about Iraq. This is NOT about attempting to find a solution to the war, nor is it about, bringing our troops home. This is about 15 minutes of fame. This is about power. This is about the spotlight and politics.

Let me ask you a question. Do you know who Sen. Bill Nelson of Florida is? I do. If you follow politics, you most likely have heard his name. He is a little less obscure then some, but most probably would answer, no. But you will know who he is now.

"In a direct affront to the Bush administration, a Democratic senator spent an hour Wednesday with Syrian President Bashar Assad in Damascus, emerging from the meeting to say Assad was willing to help control the Iraq-Syrian border.

Sen. Bill Nelson of Florida, a member of the Armed Services and Foreign Relations committees, met with Assad after the State Department said that it disapproved of his trip. The United States has limited diplomatic ties with Syria because of its support of Hezbollah and Hamas, which the U.S. deems terrorist organizations, and President Bush has expressed reluctance to seek help from Damascus on Iraq until the Syrians curb that support and reduce their influence in Lebanon."

He said after the ONE HOUR meeting,

""Assad clearly indicated the willingness to cooperate with the Americans and or the Iraqi army to be part of a solution" in Iraq, Nelson told reporters in a conference call following the meeting. The U.S. says foreign fighters often enter Iraq across that boundary.

Syrian officials have indicated a willingness before to engage the U.S. in discussions about Iraq, which the Bush administration has treated with skepticism. Nelson said he viewed Assad's remarks as "a crack in the door for discussions to continue. I approach this with realism not optimism."

Nelson said he reported the information to embassy officials and will brief his congressional committees on the trip. Also expected to visit Syria is Sens. John Kerry, D-Mass., Christopher Dodd, D-Conn., and Arlen Specter, R-Pa..

"We don't think that members of Congress ought to be going there," White House press secretary Tony Snow said, adding that the United States continues to denounce Syria's meddling in Lebanon and its ties to terrorist groups."

So this Idiot, who claims, "I have a constitutional role as a member of Congress," knows better than those who know these people and have been dealing with these people for years? He is smarter than the President, wiser than those on the ground there. Just one hour of "smart talks" with Assad will convince him that we can work together, stop funding those killing our troops and our allies, and bring peace in the nation. Yes folks, just an hour conversation of the brilliance and compassion from these far superior intellectuals will convince them to just get along, and play nice.

"Another Democratic senator announced he too was heading for Syria for a meeting with Assad next week. Connecticut's Chris Dodd said in a statement he originally planned to make the trip in April but at that time heeded a senior administration official's warnings not to go.

This time, he said he was going despite State Department opposition because "it is clear that a policy of isolation has not altered Syria's behavior and the instability in the region is greater, not less, than it was eight months ago."

STOP! Translation time, Dodd said "Yeah I know they are continuing to fund those who are killing our troops. I know they haven't stopped. I even just said that. But since the President will not talk to them, I will. I will be a hero. I will dazzle them with my vast brilliance and they will see that we are the good guys, and they will stop. They will like us. They will help us."

White House spokesman Tony Snow said,

"I think it is a real stretch to think that the Syrians don't know where we stand or what we think. We have made it clear and we will continue to make it clear."

"What has not happened is the appropriate response by the Syrians in terms of their adventurism within the region, especially with regard to Lebanon, their continued support and housing of terrorist organizations."

But wait Tony, these idiots are smarter than you. They are smarter than the President. They do not care if they are meeting with those that are funding the killing of our soldiers. When they are done talking with them, there will be peace and harmony in the region and the world will like us.
Yes folks, this is what you have to look forward to for the next two years. The arrogance, the idiotic attitude and actions, of the LWL. Like this story out of NY,

"A New York state senator (Democrat, Bronx - 31st Senatorial District) stole $423,000 in charity money to pay for indulgences like a Dominican cigar-making company, authorities said on Tuesday as they announced charges against him.

Between 1999 and 2005 Efrain Gonzalez Jr., 58, directed the state legislature to send grant monies to a Bronx charity, where a friend redirected the funds to a shell charity that was the senator's "conduit for paying personal expenses," the U.S. attorney's office said."

Along with Murtha, Reid, Jefferson, Clinton, you have the corrupt who will investigate corruption, the immoral talking about religion and morality, and those who know NOTHING about the situation in the war, talking to those that want us dead. Are you sure this is what America voted for?
