The Truth

BY: DR. FOREST LEWIS

Once again, our fearless leader has bowed to those on the left.

While the democrats stand behind their own, despite some of their outrageous comments and behavior, George Bush is busy throwing his supporters overboard. The latest casualty is Marine Corps General Peter Pace, the now outgoing Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The Bush administration gave us all a surprise when it was announced that the General would not continue as the Joint Chiefs Chairman.

Now, General Pace is saying that he was asked to voluntarily step down--or face being "Kicked Out." The General, a Marine to the end, said he opted to not step down. So, Bush and his hencemen threw the General under the bus. General Pace said that, "To quit in wartime would be letting down the troops." Apparently, Bush's loyalty only goes so far.

Pace said that he heard the scuttlebutt that his nomination to a second two-year term was in trouble in mid-May. On June 8, Defence Secretary, Robert Gates made it official, General Pace would not be recommended for a second two-year term as Chairman of the Joints Chiefs of Staff. General Pace elaborated on why he placed his own neck on the chopping block:

"One thing that was discussed was whether or not I should just voluntarily retire and take the issue off the table. I said I could not do that for one very fundamental reason, which is that no soldier or Marine in Iraq should think ever that his Chairman, whoever that person is, could have stayed in the battle and voluntarily walked off the battlefield"

General Pace's term comes to an end on October 1st. He says he plans to finish the job that he was hired to do. In the meantime, the jackals from the Bush administration have already named Pace's replacement. He is Navy Admiral, Michael Mullen. Pace was the first Marine to ever hold the Chairmanship of the Joint Chiefs.

Pace was reportedly fed to the the lions because of the war in Iraq. Recently, he came under fire from weasel House Major Leader, Harry Reid. Reid said that Pace was "Incompetent."  According to Harry "The Lion Heart" Reid, General Pace had failed to give the Congress a candid assessment of the war. What this little backstabber was really saying  was that General Pace did not give the democrats the kind of assessment they wanted. Remember, it was this little coward Harry Reid who announced that "We Had Lost The War In Iraq." And then the little cretin has the nerve to say, Oh by the way, "We Support The Troops."  If anyone is incompetent it is Harry Reid and "Featherhead" Nancy Pelosi.

The so-called "elite media" isn't sounding the trumpets over Reid's and Pelosi's low approval ratings. They work overtime to make sure that their message on Bush's low approval ratings are heard. But, their pals Reid and Pelosi's, well that is another story. For the record, since the democrats took the reins on Capitol Hill earlier this year, the public's assessment of Congress is at its lowest level in more than a decade. Not even the Republican controlled House could manage to screw things up as royally as the socialist democrats have. And they have managed all of this in less than six months. Yet, this little weasel Harry Reid has the unmitigated gall to call General Pace incompetent. In psychological parlance, that is called "Projecting."

According to a just released Los Angles Times/Bloomberg poll, only 27% of Americans approve of the job Congress is doing. That is down from 36% in January, when the democrats took control of both chambers. The poll found that, "63% of Americans said that the new democratic Congress is governing in a business as usual manner, rather than working to bring the fundamental change that party leaders promised after November's mid-term election."

Only 36% of Americans said that they thought Nancy Pelosi was doing a good job. Contrast that with Newt Gingrich who was Speaker of the House at the same point that Ms. Pelosi is at, 46% of Americans liked what Mr. Gingrich and his party were doing. Mr. "Competence" Harry Reid's approval rating was pegged at a whopping "18%."

Buried in this Los Angles Times poll were the results of how liberals viewed their heroes. Keep in mind that one third of liberals make up the democrat party's base. Yet, "58%" of liberals said they disapproved of the way the democrat led House was doing its job. Back in January, 43% of libs said they liked what was taking place on the Hill.

And how did Pelosi and Reid react to this latest poll? Like the typical arrogant idiots they are. Spokespersons for both of these geniuses said that both Pelosi and Reid were not concerned about the public's anger. Now that is arrogance at its highest level!

It is refreshing to see that the American people have started to wake up and realize that the democrat party is a party devoid of any ideas that would fit into the mainstream. Democrats are good at only two things, (1) Increasing Our Taxes  (2) Spend the "People's" money.

They are also good at one other thing, "Blame Bush." But, that tired old refrain has apparently made the American people tired: Tired of the democrat party.
