Once again, Obama sells out the troops.

Resident Hack

by George Dienhart

This piece in the Washington Times says it all.

In a nutshell- Obama once again prioritized his election to the presidency as being more important that the lives of those serving in the military. To Obama the election was more important than the lives of innocent Iraqi's. It was also more and more important than the country itself. That's the problem with Obama- for all his bluster and lies, he really doesn't care about anything other than power.

As a U.S. Senator, he never once stood up to his party- he is a senator that has served as part of  the most unpopular congress in history- yet he votes the party line 95% of the time. He voted against the Republican sponsored legislation to fix the high risk mortgage problem- two years ago, He was for the fed paying on defaulted mortgages only 2 weeks ago. Once he found out Pelosi and crew were against it he flipped and is now against it. He was wrong on the surge.

All of these were political moves. Designed to consolidate his base- regardless of how out of touch and radically liberal that they are. Never once has this man thought about what's best for the country- and that's a problem.

Sen. Obama actually spoke to the Iraqi leaders two weeks after clinching the Democratic nomination.
Sen. Mr. Obama actually urged the Baghdad government to delay any agreement with the Bush administration until next year- after the election. In Obamaland- it's always all about what's best for Obama.

The question we must ask is who is better qualified to be president. A many that was willing to sacrifice his life for his country, or a man who is willing to sacrifice his country for his life. Who's got your back America? I think the question has an obvious answer.

Introducing Incognito

Incognito is our newest staff member- her bio says it all.

I'm a working actress, writer, artist. I'm also a somewhat-moderate Republican, although I haven't always been. In my youth, I was out there demonstrating with the best of them. I even voted for Jerry Brown in the California primaries. I might even have voted for Jimmy Carter (God forgive me if I did), but then I grew up! Saw the Light, so to speak. I wish I could be open about my politics, but in the Arts one has to remain close-mouthed because they do blackball those with ideas contrary to their own. I would be considered a moderate, of sorts, because I'm a proud member of all my Unions: AEA, SAG & AFTRA and though I'm not sure what I think about unionizing Pizza Delivery drivers, I do believe the Actor Unions are very important. I also tend to be pro gun control. Perhaps someday, if and when I give this all up, I'll finally have the courage to proudly proclaim "I'm a Republican and proud of it!".

She will continue her own blog "Confessions of a closeted Republican". Please welcome Incognito to GPD

Of magic dust and prancing goblins

Everything and in between
by Frase Poo

Of magic dust and prancing goblins. Nonsense, right ?

Thats what I think of the "undecided voter".

How can you not make a decision based on all that you have seen or heard by now ?
To most people it should be clear what Obama and McCain stand for.Though I'm not sure if the debates have helped any.There seemed to be a lot of finger pointing for my taste but thats another topic for another day!

If every "undecided voter" took it upon themselves to educate themselves about what each candidate believes or voted for,they wont be a "swing voter" anymore.

It comes down to what you believe in,what your morals and values are and how each candidate will serve,protect the country.Dont base it on race,financial standing,looks etc of the candidate.
McCain was not my first choice for the Republican presidential candidate,I would have loved it if Condoleeza Rice had run.But I believe that a man who served the country at war and who was a POW is a man who believes in the good of the country and I believe him when he says"Country First".Is' nt that what it should be ?

GPD Welcomes it's newest staff member.

I'd like to welcome Frasypoo to the Georgia Political Daily. Frasy brings a unique perspective to GPD- she's a native born Indian and recent transplant to Georgia.

Frasypoo says that she is "one in a handful" of Indian Republicans and this rarity started her off in blogging.

Her passion for politics is something that is like a raging fire and is hard to keep under control. Thus, it pours out onto blog posts.

She was born in India,met her husband online and moved to Georgia in 2002.When she got her citizenship in 2006,her husband took her to eat at The Varsity in the Fox News Room. And thats where her Democrat friends say the "brainwashing" began.She swears its not true!Its what you believe in that matters, not trends, not the way the media leans, nothing else. 

She is Baptist, a wife, a runner, a dog enthusiast, loves all things vintage and most of all loves riding with her husband on his Harley(his second wife!)

She has a degree in Women Studies,Journalism and English Literature and a "literal" degree in Sarcasm and Cynicism.

Playing the percentages

by George Dienhart

I recently saw an ad posted by Vets for Freedom. It stated:

Obama skipped 45% of Senate votes...
...but voted against funding our troops.

Wow- I knew this was going to be ugly, but really- 45%? No wonder he didn't want to go back to Washington to work on the bailout bill- he probably doesn't remember how to get there.

Trust me. I'm German.

by George Dienhart

A nice little quote from German Finance Minister Peer Steinbrueck.

"The United States lacked laws, a regulatory framework that would have prevented" what Social-Democrat Finance Minister Peer Steinbrueck called "uncontrolled speculation The USA will lose its superpower status in the global financial system. The world financial system is becoming multi-polar,"

I saw this guy spewing this garbage last week, but it slipped of my radar. I believe he said this right before the German Investment giant IKB failed and was bailed out. That set off a panic sell off of German bank stocks.

Hey, Peer- that's a big slice of Karma for you...

The Times They Are-A Changin

SHOTS ACROSS THE BOW

by Charles Jackson

With twenty-seven day to go, this is still an election too close to call. However, whatever the outcome, Sarah Palin is an invigorating breath of fresh air and she represents a new wind blowing across the country’s political landscape and headed fiercely towards the GOP of old.  That wind is blowing from a proud, old American political tradition - Populism. 

Remember the 1976 movie, “Network?”  Peter Finch’s memorable performance with his “I’m Mad As Hell and I’m Not Going To Take It Anymore!” just about sums up the mood of the country, particularly of everyday, ordinary folks – who’re the country’s foundation.
