Oh My God! Did I read Brzezinski right?

Via the Hot air headlines The Weekly standard finds a bombshell hidden in this daily beast story!

How aggressive can Obama be in insisting to the Israelis that a military strike might be in America’s worst interest?
We are not exactly impotent little babies. They have to fly over our airspace in Iraq. Are we just going to sit there and watch?

What if they fly over anyway?
Well, we have to be serious about denying them that right. That means a denial where you aren’t just saying it. If they fly over, you go up and confront them. They have the choice of turning back or not. No one wishes for this but it could be a Liberty in reverse. [Israeli jet fighters and torpedo boats attacked the USS Liberty in international waters, off the Sinai Peninsula, during the Six-Day War in 1967. Israel later claimed the ship was the object of friendly fire.]

It’s interesting to note that the Beast fails to mention the subsequent apology and payment of over $12,800,000 in compensation for the dead and wounded and for damage to the ship itself.

Zbigniew Brzezinski I would remind you was Jimmy Carter’s National Security adviser.

In his newly published book The Army Insider. (My review here, Buy It!) Retired Sgt Major David C. Carden says this about the Jimmy Carter years on page 141:

Circa 1977 to 1981. There are more learned people than me that can write about Jimmy Carter’s presidency. I can only say that from day one, the Military started belt tightening; there was a 444 day black mark painted on the United States of America: eight American Servicemen died attempting to wipe away that black mark: and one payback is still owed.

There must have been something good during those years when Zbigniew was national security adviser. Dave?

The best thing that happened for the military Services and America during the Carter administration was that Ronald Reagan was elected the next president of the United states.

I’d have to agree.

Apparently like Buchanan ol Ziggy hasn’t gotten over the Liberty either.

His daughter is still a handsome woman no matter what Robert Stacy McCain says.

As Michael Eric Dyson goes on about race in response to the Carter Nonsense Maria Closes with THE shot.

“Obama had a 70% approval rating, now it’s down to 50% did all those people suddenly become racists?”

That’s gotta leave a bruise. Don’t mess with Italian women they have more to offer than just looks.

She isn’t buying Acorn’s story either!

Jimmy Carter the gift that keeps on giving

When I saw Barak Obama he he reminded me of Jimmy Carter the first week the blog was open I quoted myself concerning what I thought:

You sometimes get a rookie pitcher with a winning season but usually not. I’m hoping for Chester Arthur but I’m expecting Jimmy Carter.

so much I started the Arthur/Carter Watch to see if he would be Jimmy Carter or Chester Arthur (Arthur was a Machine Pol who became president when Garfield was shot but governed like Prince Hal, turning away from his old self)

Now Carter has joined the Maureen Dowd Chorus saying to oppose Obama is to be Racist:

I think Mickey Kaus is dead on concerning this:

A good example of how, if the MSM wants to tilt against the Republicans, it’s often too wedded to its own conventions–e.g., the desire to ‘make news’ with an ex-Pres.–to be effective. … No sophisticated campaign propagandist would say, “OK, let’s throw Jimmy Carter at them. They’ll be reeling!

I’m starting to think comparing Obama to Carter is too much of an insult to Obama.

Jimmy Carter is our worst ex-president ever with only John Tyler competing and he only competes because he sided with the Confederacy so he would be an actual traitor, but Carter maintains his lead. Jay Nordlinger said it best years ago:

The ex-president is known as Joe Human Rights, but he’s mighty selective about whose human rights to champion. If you live in Marcos’s Philippines, Pinochet’s Chile, or apartheid South Africa, he’s liable to care about you. If you live in Communist China, Communist Cuba, Communist Ethiopia, Communist Nicaragua, Communist North Korea, Communist . . .: screw you.
