Welcome To Okinawa

Read my lips .... Nancy Pelosi is pushing John Murtha for House Majority Leader. OK, now that you’ve s**t your britches, let’s take a little trip back into recent history ...

Got all that? Good, because come January when the Donks descend on Washington, we are going to witness the biggest train wreck in American politics since ... well ... since never. For six years the rabid jackasses have ranted and railed and complained that Republicans are doing everything wrong and as you can see from the above, the rhetoric has bordered on the insane at times.

The problem they now face is that they have to reverse course on everything just to prove they were right. Otherwise, they will be forced to admit they were full of shit all along. Putting freaks like John Murtha in charge is only the beginning of what is going to be a long nightmare for all of us. I only hope we can survive until 2008 without too much damage.

The Democrats just don’t get it. Somebody forgot to tell them that we are at war with people who are trying to kill us ... and that’s just the beginning. They want to pull out of the fight and lose everything we’ve gained to date in the war against radical Islamofascists. Not to mention the kooks in Iran and North Korea who are on the verge of throwing nukes at everyone.

On the bright side, our troops will be pleased to know that the weather in Okinawa is rather pleasant this time of year with temps at 75 degrees and humidity of 54%. Clear skies and warm Pacific breezes are in the forecast for our weary troops. There’s only one problem that Rep. Murtha overlooked ... we gave Okinawa back to Japan in 1972. I wonder what the Japanese will have to say about 140,000 American troops suddenly descending on their tiny island.

Stay tuned. We have a long and bumpy road ahead of us ... and there’s a jackass behind the wheel ... and he just got his learner’s permit ...

Pelosi Puts Weight Behind Murtha in Leader Bid
_{(ROLL CALL) - Sunday, Nov. 12; 7:08 pm}

Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), in line to become Speaker in January, is throwing her support to Rep. John Murtha (D-Pa.) in the race for Majority Leader, a move that will be an early test of her influence and will weigh heavily on Murtha’s contest with Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) for the post.

Pelosi, in a letter distributed Sunday to newly elected House Democrats, wrote that Murtha’s outspoken opposition to the war in Iraq helped change the electoral campaign for the House this fall. Murtha began calling for a U.S. pullout from Iraq a year ago, and his open opposition to the war made him a focus of intense criticism from Republicans and the White House.

Pelosi, though, credited Murtha, one of her closest allies in the House, with changing the national debate on the issue and helping provide Democratic challengers and incumbents with a winning argument for the mid-term elections.

“With respect to Iraq in particular, I salute your courageous leadership that changed the national debate and helped make Iraq the central issue of this historic election,” Pelosi wrote in a personal letter to Murtha. “Your leadership gave so many Americans, including respected military leaders, the encouragement to voice their own disapproval at a failed policy that weakens our military and makes stability in that region even more difficult to achieve.

The enthusiastic response of Americans all across this nation gave an enormous lift to our Democratic efforts, and your unsurpassed personal solicitations produced millions of dollars which were new to the effort. Those resources made a huge difference and particularly for the candidates on whose behalf you campaigned.”

Pelosi added: “Your strong voice for national security, the war on terror and Iraq provides genuine leadership for our party, and I count on you to continue to lead on these vital issues. For this and for all you have done for Democrats in the past and especially this last year, I am pleased to support your candidacy for Majority Leader for the 110th Congress.”

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
