After a pretty good week the president is off the wagon:

The Obama administration will scrap the controversial missile defense shield program in Eastern Europe, a senior administration official confirmed to CNN Thursday.

I’d keep an eye on Sarah Palin’s facebook page, this one is a fat pitch over the plate.

Lets cut to the Chase, Gates blather not withstanding the reason why the shipboard option is bad is because it is not actually in the country being protected so they have absolutely no control over their own defense or the decision to actually defend themselves.

This kind of stuff is sure going to provide an incentive for countries to be allied with us isn’t it?

That’s as Carter as you can get:

Carter 15 Arthur 9

This is a full You Fool moment:

Exit question: Is this the price from Russia keeping nukes out of Chavez’s hands and is this administration stupid enough to believe him? Can they learn from President Bush’s mistake concerning Vlad?

Update: Nothing on facebook yet but Conservatives for Palin has an awesome title post:

America’s New Foreign Policy – Speak Softly And Carry A Big “Kick Me” Sign……

Pretty good.

Update 2:
Hotair comments

Considering the nature of the McCain/Johnson fight I can’t get this clip from the movie One Two Three out of my head. Key moment comes at :45

Although he denies hatred of Yankees citing his wife, when people as universally respected * as James Edwards, Charles Johnson and Michelangelo Signorile talk attention must be paid.

So I have a blockbusting confession to make. Here in Massachusetts the bluest of blue states Yankee hatred is so prevalent that at the Butcher shop there is a photo that says:

Red Sox fan’s 10% off, Yankeee Fans F— Off

With the exception of Berra and Jeter I must confess that I share that unyeilding Yankee hatred.

Oh and I strongly advise not watching the Movie it has horrible scenes of torture.

Where is Human Rights Watch when you need them, drop the Nazi medals and get on the case!

* Full Disclosure I didn’t specify which universe

Nancy Pelosi sure can’t:

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said yesterday she is clueless about an amendment to prohibit government funds for embattled ACORN, although it overwhelmingly passed the Senate Monday and the White House is calling for the group to be held accountable.

Via that Beck supporting, Breitbart interviewing, “9/12 crowd trutherGlenn Reynolds.

Meghan McCain nails it

She hasn’t been right much lately but when she is she is in spades:

John McCain’s daughter Meghan has a message for 19-year-old Levi Johnston, who has been on a media tour slamming John’s former running mate Sarah Palin.

“I think he should go back to Alaska and take care of his baby, which he claims that he wants to be doing, but I just see him going to events,”

I enjoy politics but reality trumps it. She isn’t conservative enough for my tastes in politics but if either of my sons brought her home I would not be displeased. (Except she is a tad too old for at least the youngest)
