Don't believe Leftist propaganda

"Bush lied, people died", "Worst president since Hoover" and "approval rating at 28 percent" dominate the left-wing mantra, aided and abetted by a liberal press bent on bashing a gentleman who kept this nation incident-free for seven years after the worst attack on our soil since the War of 1812. Speak with the trembling citizenry of Madrid and London to determine just how abject fear can grip your every waking moment.

With the Congressional approval at 9 percent, Democrats actively undermine the military mission worldwide while blocking decades-long efforts to drill responsibly on the Continental shelf, in the Gulf of Mexico and ANWR as $5 gasoline hovers just around the corner.

"The war is lost" (Harry Reid); "General Petraeus, General Betray-us," (moveon.org); and "the willing suspension of disbelief" (Hillary, cleverly "borrowed" from Samuel Coleridge.) All from politicians bent on America's failing in Iraq and Afghanistan purely for their own political gain. This despicable behavior resonates from the snake oil salesmen promising the huddled masses "hope" and "change," neither of which will reduce the price of oil nor ensure our nation's security for the foreseeable future in an extremely dangerous world.

Do your homework. Get the facts. Truth will absolutely set you free.
