Adultery - The New Republican Family Value
"Three of the top potential Republican candidates are admitted adulterers ... McCain was still married and living with his wife in 1979 while ... aggressively courting a 25-year-old woman who was as beautiful as she was rich ... McCain divorced his wife, who had raised their three children while he was imprisoned in Vietnam, then launched his political career with his new wife's family money ...
Giuliani informed his second wife, Donna Hanover, of his intention to seek a separation in a 2000 press conference. The announcement was precipitated by a tabloid frenzy after Giuliani marched with his then-mistress, Judith Nathan, in New York's St. Patrick's Day parade ...
Gingrich obtained his first divorce in 1981, after forcing his wife, who had helped put him through graduate school, to haggle over the terms while in the hospital, as she recovered from uterine cancer surgery. In 1999, he was disgraced again, having been caught in an affair with a 33-year-old congressional aide while spearheading the impeachment proceedings against President Clinton ..."
Listen up, kids: Never, EVER, believe what any Republican politician tells you about morality, family values, faith, God, love, honor or duty. They talk pretty, but they fuck dirty.

Easy For Fat, Lying Leakers To Sit In Washington And Tell Soldiers To 'Stay The Course'
"He’s sitting in his air-conditioned office on his big, fat backside, saying stay the course. That’s not a plan. … We’ve got to change direction. You can’t sit there in the air-conditioned office and tell troops carrying 70 pounds on their backs, inside these armored vessels hit with IEDs every day, seeing their friends blown up, their buddies blown up — and he says stay the course? Easy to say that from Washington, DC." (Click thru for video)

Another Brush With Disaster
So now we see how close we came to another 9/11 scale attack in 2003:
"U.S. officials received intelligence that al-Qaida operatives had been 45 days away from releasing a deadly gas into the city's subways when the plan was called off by Osama bin Laden's deputy in 2003 ... Ayman al-Zawahri had canceled the plan in January 2003, despite the likelihood that the strike would have killed as many people as the Sept. 11 attacks."
Aint it just a shame Bush didn't capture the Al-Qaida leadership when he had the chance? But of course, his mind was already on other things:
"Despite the importance of finding al-Qaeda's leaders, by early 2002 the United States was already shifting its attention and resources away from Afghanistan. (That shift began early: according to Bob Woodward, in late November of 2001 President Bush had asked the Pentagon to revamp its Iraq war plan, an 800-page document known as Op Plan 1003.) For more than a year and a half the search for bin Laden was given relatively low priority ... Intelligence and military assets that might have been directed at bin Laden were directed largely at Iraq."
