Surrender Video Betrays the Real Obama

Wednesday, February 27, 2008

Anyone doubting the dangers of placing a hopelessly ill-prepared and sophomorically idealistic man at the helm of our national defense in these most dangerous of times needs look no further for a startling education.

In this MUST SEE video, the man who would be commander-in-chief promises that, as president, he will not only end the war in Iraq, but will also

  • Cut investments in unproven missile defense systems
  • Not weaponize space
  • Slow our development of future combat systems
  • Institute an independent “Defense Priorities Board” to ensure that the quadrennial defense review is not used to justify unnecessary spending
  • Set a goal of a world without nuclear weapon and to seek that goal,
  • [He] will not develop nuclear weapons
  • [He] will seek a global ban on the development of fissile material AND
  • [He] will negotiate with Russia to take our ICBMs off hair-trigger alert AND
    To achieve deep cuts in our nuclear arsenal
  • While the video was posted on YouTube — with mysteriously modest credential — on February 16th, it has received little attention outside of a few message boards. That is, until yesterday, when it caught the watchful eye of Doug Ross.

    But will unveiling the real Obama represent even a crimp in the tracks to this runaway freight train?

    Oddly enough, this dangerously quixotic world-view from a man who has promised to sit down unconditionally with Iran’s apocalyptic madman Ahmadinejad, will likely make him even more popular with his Bush-bashing base. In fact, while I wonder when this little slice of military naivety was produced, I just can’t help pondering whose decision it was to consign it to the broom closet.

    I suspect that whoever it was soon realized the Frankensteinian general election potential of that which they had created.

    But now IT’S ALIVE.

      Out of all money spent worldwide on defense the USA spends FIFTY PERCENT!
      And a bunch of towel-heads STILL bloodied our noses with a box of $1.29 box-cutters!
      It’s time to start thinking about Methodology and Bang for our bucks, instead of sheer dollars.

      In addition to everything outlined above I would enact a 10 year moratorium between the time a general retires and he can be hired or contracted (even through a 3rd party) by a weapons/vehicle manufacturer (or it’s subsidiaries).
      The reason for this is necessary. This will cut down on corrupt generals stating making advisements that a certain weapon or vehicle is “necessary” in a tit-for-tat move where the company agrees to hire him as a “consultant” later on.

      How to save $$$ on fighting Islamic terrorism?
      When an event occurs:
      1. kill a member of the Saudi royal family, chosen at random.
      2. deport 1,000 illegal arab immigrants, and push them out of the plane 50 feet up over Riyadh
      3. jam Al Jazeera and substitute a prank version showing Bin Laden converting to Orthodox Judaism
      4. broadcast a warning: the next time an American is even annoyed, the Kaaba will be bombed to dust

      Will this work?
      Let’s find out.

      Russia is giving nukes to Serbia, and has said it will use tactical nukes against conventional forces, as well as having all new top of the line 5th generation military equipment which is nuclear ready now, is still upgrading, has refurbished yamentau mountain, it has dropped out of the conventional forces treaty.

      a perfect time to disarm…

      if you work for the other side…

      SDI only helps on ICBM’s so if they use tactical nukes I guess those forces targeted are F’d

      Besides we’ve had more damage to this country from box-cutters, than from nukes.
