Halperin: 'It Paints Such a Different Picture' if Obama's Standing With Republicans When Announcing
Oh isn't this lovely? More Villager group think from the cast of Morning Joe. After Scarborough doing his some water-carrying for Dick Cheney and ranting about Obama delaying his decision on troop levels in Afghanistan, Scarborough and Mark Halperin both agree on one thing. Obama just needs to kiss more Republican ass to be taken seriously—because we know in the world of the Scarborough’s and Halperin’s out there, only Republicans have any credibility on national security.

Halperin: Imagine two scenarios—he announces it standing there by himself, or with Democrats (gasp!) when he makes this decision, or imagine him standing there with John McCain, or other prominent Republicans on national security. It paints such a different picture if he’s with the Republicans.

Yeah, that’s just what he need Halperin. Obama and Mr. Bomb, Bomb, Bomb Iran standing hand in hand announcing his Afghanistan policy. News flash to Halperin—McCain lost the election. And Obama needs to be listening to his base, not McCain.

I'd rather that he stand with 'F Troop' than those obstructionist jackasses!

1. How about he stands with Cindy Sheehan when he makes his announcement?

4. It was either that
or a flock of chickens. You couldn't tell the difference between the GOP and the COOP.

3. The good news: No one cares what Halperin thinks
about anything.

5. It'll look like they took him hostage
and if they were there at all, it probably is true.

6. Republicans have been thoroughly discredited on national security matters.
There is nothing but disadvantage in standing with Republicans where war and peace is concerned. They have proved themselves to be evil, traitorous, lying, thieving bloodsuckers.

Stand with THEM? Nixon famously said "I am not a crook" -- because he was a damned crook! And during those Watergate months almost all of the Republicans in Congress backed him up -- because they also were crooks. Only when their position became untenable did they start to turn on Crooked Dick. Nothing ever changed. It's the same old Republican Party whether they call themselves Tea Baggers, or Conservatives, or Oligarchs.

Some people with this same criminal bent are also in the Democratic Party. They just don't run the show. They are plants, in my opinion, there to throw monkeywrenches and threaten filibusters and in general be sorry bastards who claim to be holier than thou, and yet whose faith and allegiance is to the Almighty Dollars flowing into their bank accounts. They are ALL morally corrupt. If they weren't, they wouldn't be drawn to the Republican Party.

Even somebody like Olympia Snowe -- if she were truly a decent and "moderate" person, she'd leave the Evil Republican Party. She could call herself an Independent, but to stay with the Party of the Damned is all I need to know about her, or Susan Collins, or any other so-called moderate caucusing with the Criminal Wing of the Congress.

Nothing sickens me more than the fawning over people such as John McCain and Lindsay Graham because they are "moderates" -- they are a couple of bastards who talk out of both sides of their mouths. I guess that makes you a moderate in the Republican Party?

To hell with them all. I don't trust them. I don't think they give a damn about this country. I think they use religion for their own selfish purposes to gain power. I think they are crooks of various dimensions and rank who are into the racket of seeking elective office to get rich from middle class people; in short, they are snakes, jackals, hyenas, weasels and toads. The hell with 'em.

I feel better now.
