Inexperience vs. Experience

“Mark my words. It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy. The world is looking. We’re about to elect a brilliant 47-year-old senator president of the United States of America.”

“Remember I said it standing here if you don’t remember anything else I said. Watch, we’re gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy.”

“He’s gonna have to make some really tough - I don’t know what the decision’s gonna be, but I promise you it will occur. As a student of history and having served with seven presidents, I guarantee you it’s gonna happen.”

“We’re going to face a major international challenge. Because they’re going to want to test him, just like they did young John Kennedy. They’re going to want to test him. And they’re going to find out this guy’s got steel in his spine.”

"And he's gonna need help. And the kind of help he's gonna need is, he's gonna need you - not financially to help him - we're gonna need you to use your influence, your influence within the community, to stand with him. Because it's not gonna be apparent initially, it's not gonna be apparent that we're right."

Senator Joe Robinette Biden, the Democrat Vice-Presidential candidate, uttered the above quotes. Do his words scare you? They should. He is saying that our enemies will do something to see how much they can get away with if Senator Barack Hussein Obama becomes the President of the United States. Let’s think this through.

In a sense, Senator Joe Robinette Biden is correct. Since World War II, our enemies have tested all of our President, with Soviet Russia being the main instigator. Since World War II, our Presidents were tested with the Cold War, the Korean War, the Viet Nam War, China turning to Communism, the rise of Islamic terrorism. The many ways our various Presidents have been tested are too numerous to mention.

While I do not want to demean the past, to be blunt these tests have all happened outside the United States. But that changed on September 11, 2001.

January 2001 we witnessed the inauguration of President George Walker Bush. His first test came when the Chinese Communists forced down one of our planes in their territory. Then came September 11, 2001 when Islamic terrorists decided to push the United States by testing President Bush on our own shores. The citizens learned that day that no longer will the tests imposed on the United States by our enemies will remain overseas.

Up until that time, when our enemies tested our presidents, these “tests” were far from our shores. While our citizens took notice of how their Presidents reacted, the thought that what happened was not in the United States and did not drastically affect us. In the late 1970’s that started to change when Islamic terrorists tested our Presidents by actively targeting our embassies, our citizens, and our military personnel. The ultimate test occurred September 11, 2001. Now Senator Joe Robinette Biden says an inexperienced junior Senator will have to make a decision that the majority of us will not understand and/or like. Do you want to take that risk?

Listen below to the plans Senator Barack Hussein Obama has for the United States if he becomes President –



September 11, 2001 proved that we are vulnerable to terrorist attacks. Remember when President Reagan took office and the Iranians released our kidnapped embassy personnel that same day? Why? Because the Iranians knew, that President Reagan was not going to mess around. He was going to get those hostages back.

Now we have an individual poised to be President of the United States who – by his own words – has stated he wants to weaken us militarily and has stated he would meet with our Islamic enemies without pre-conditions. Do you want to risk the deaths of citizens living in New York, Washington, D.C., San Francisco, Chicago, Norfolk, San Diego, or in any other United States citizen? Do you want to risk a nuclear device or a dirty nuclear device detonated in any of our cities? Do you want to risk the attack and possible destruction of Israel?

I don’t and that is why I am voting for Senator John Sydney McCain. If he had just graduated from the United States Naval Academy and then did nothing else in his life, he still would have done and achieved more than Senator Obama has ever done in his life. However, let’s not forget what else Senator McCain has done.

He was a naval aviator, sitting ready on the deck of an aircraft carrier prepared to defend the United States in case the Soviet Union escalated the Cuban Missile Crisis into a nuclear war. He survived a horrendous fire onboard the USS Forrestal, a fire that nearly sank that aircraft carrier. On a mission during the Viet Nam War, the North Vietnamese shot down his aircraft, took him prisoner of war, and for 5 ½ years they severely beat and tortured him. His captors gave him the chance to go home early. I would not blame him if he took that offer. Nevertheless, he held firm to his core beliefs and training, saying no all the while knowing his decision would only get him more beatings. He has looked evil and death in the eye and made the right decisions. He has made life and death decisions.

Again, think who you would rather be the President if Iran drops a nuke on Israel. Or if bombs are set off in our cities. Or if biological or chemical weapons are released in the United States. It is dangerous lunacy to believe that Senator Barack Hussein Obama will make the right decision to either protect or avenge this nation.

Favorite Links

I want to take a time out from politics for a moment to discuss the section of this site titled Favorite Links. These alphabetically listed links are websites that I visit from time to time. As I come across other web sites that I find interesting, I will include them. I encourage you to visit these websites.

Ann Coulter is a political commentary and the author of five New York Times bestsellers. She is an unabashed conservative. Her style is cut and burn and she is not for the politically squeamish.

Calvert County is the website of the Maryland County where I live.

Chesapeake Market Place is a website for the Chesapeake Marketplace and Auction House, which deals in antiques and collectibles. If you are into auctions, antiques and collectibles, than you need to visit this site.

Free Republic is my favorite website. Free Republic mainly lists various news stories and the comments on these stories by various Freepers. If you want to find out what the mainstream media is not telling you, than visit this site.

Grand Old Party USA is an excellent site. This site provides links to conservative columnists and pundits, as well as GOP and conservative political news.

Laura Ingraham is a political pundit, best-selling author, and conservative talk show host. She is similar to Ann Coulter, using her brand of sarcastic wit in order to ridicule the leftists.

Mark Levin – perhaps the best radio talk show host next to Rush Limbaugh. He takes no prisoners. He is extremely intelligent especially concerning the United States Constitution. He is also a best-selling author of two books with a third coming out next year.

The Maryland Small Arms Range is a website to a business that specializes in law enforcement equipment and supplies. They also have a gun range where if you own a firearm you can practice or you can rent a firearm and practice in order to become comfortable with a particular firearm.

My Genealogy Home Page is a site I created through Family Tree Maker, listing my family tree. This is a work in progress and seriously needs updating. It is still interesting and I urge you to visit Family Tree Maker if you are curious about your own family tree.

NFL Reference is for the football geek. If you are interested in team histories, players, and stats concerning professional football, then you need to visit this site.

No Compromise is the site of the band by the same name or NoCo. I know the drummer/song-writer of this band and their music is good. They are trying to break into the big time so visit this site and give them your support.

Regular Folks is a new link I recently added. This is a new blog started by Marylander Lori Roman and it’s a great meeting place for people who refuse to be silenced by the media, academia, or the entertainment industry. Please visit this site and support Lori Roman.

Ron Miller is another new link. Ron Miller is a rising star in Southern Maryland Republican politics. This site provides his insights and opinions, allowing you to comment.

Rush Limbaugh – what can I say? Without him, conservatism would most likely be dead. Ronald Reagan provided him the opportunity when his administration eliminated the Fairness Doctrine. After that, Rush took off and the vast majority of radio talk show hosts today – from the left and the right – owe their success to him. Whether you agree or disagree with him, if you spend time listening to his program, you will find out information that the mainstream media will not report on.

Sean Hannity is another popular radio talk show host and best-selling author. He supports the troops – as Vice President Richard Cheney would say – big time! Moreover, I believe, without him, we would not know anything about William Ayers, Jeremiah Wright, ACORN, or anything else concerning Senator Barack Hussein Obama.

Saint John Vianney Catholic Church is the church I attend. This site provides information and links concerning the Catholic faith, the good works performed by this particular church, and links to the Washington, DC Archdiocese.

A short entry for today.

First subject - the election is two weeks away and you have to get out and vote for John McCain. Also, don’t forget to vote for the Republican running in the Senate and Congressional races. Lt. Col. Allen West is running in Florida’s 22nd Congressional District. Andy Harris is running in Maryland’s 1st Congressional District. Michele Bachmann is running a tough re-election race in Minnesota’s 6th Congressional District and is targeted by the Democrat Party in a smear campaign. Collins Bailey is running a tough race in Maryland’s 5th Congressional District. And Lt. Col. Bill Russell is running in Pennsylvania’s 12th Congressional District against the detestable John Murtha. Remember him? He accused our Marines of murder for their actions in Haditha, Iraq. Well, the Marine Corps have acquitted all involved Marines. These people need your help. If you have an extra five to twenty-five dollars, please send it to them. Just remember, the money you spend now on the right candidates may possibly save you from paying more in taxes in the future.

Second subject – I blogged last week about Joe the Plumber. Well, it seems after Joe asked Senator Barack Hussein Obama a question; life has been pretty hard for him. The Obama campaign and the Democrat Party have made it all but impossible for Joe to work by sicking Union goons on him. They have dug into his personal life – his work experience, his finances, and even dug out his divorce history. The points you need to remember is not whether Joe has a plumbers license, whether he owes taxes or not, or even anything about his ex-wife. The first point is the answer Senator Obama gave him – "It’s not that I want to punish your success, I just want to make sure that everybody who is behind you, that they’ve got a chance at success, too. I think when you spread the wealth around, it's good for everybody.”

The second point is what has happened to Joe since he asked his question. The media and the Democrat Party have dug into his life in an effort to shut him up and intimidate him. The message is the Democrat Party and the lapdog media will attempt to destroy you f you dare question a Democrat.

Well folks – in two weeks it is our turn to say something to them! Don’t let Joe the Plumber be destroyed. Don’t let the Obama campaign relegate this wonderful and powerful nation into a Socialist, second-rate country. Stand up, vote for John McCain, and tell the Democrats that this is the United States of America and we reject socialism!
