Congressman Delahunt Wants Addington Killed!!

I was reading RedState.com when I came across this Article about Congressman Delahunt, and I have to tell you I was ABSOLUTELY Floored!

It's one thing to have a civil discourse where you feel that your way to fix the countries problems are better than my way of fixing the countries problems, but can we at the very least, have a common understanding that Al Quada launched these attacks on us, during first when Clinton was President and later while Bush was president, they want us ALL dead, they don't care if we're Right or Left or whatever, they just want us dead! Even if you don't believe that, we can at least agree that they are a common enemy.

For a Congressman, and Super Delegate to Barrack Obama, to encourage our enemies to kill one of our citizens is about the most deplorable thing they can do, this goes beyond anything that the Democrats have done in the past and if this is not punished then I don't know if we have a Republican Party worth saving.

Here's the text of the Article.
It is no secret that public discourse in this country has become very shrill. Blogs on the left regularly feature vulgar diatribes against the right. Some on the right do the same. Keith Olbermann tells the President to "shut the hell up" on his television program. The New York Times publicly reveals the name of a CIA agent who did the dirty work of interrogating captured Al Qaeda operatives. The left says, "So, the right did it to Valerie Plame," treating as morally equivalent the disclosure of the spy no longer spying and the disclosure of one of the men Al Qaeda would love to behead.

While Congress has also descended into a more shrill style, until yesterday it had not crossed one line of civility that never should be crossed on either side.

David Addington is the Vice President's Chief of Staff. Yesterday, he testified before Congress.

During the course of the hearing, Congressman and Obama Superdelegate William Delahunt (MA-10) asked Mr. Addington about water boarding. Mr. Addington responded that he would not go into details because Al Qaeda is probably watching.

Congressman Delahunt's response was, "I'm glad they finally have a chance to see you."

Mr. Delahunt now denies he meant what he said. But what he clearly said was "I'm glad they finally have a chance to see you." Al Qaeda now knows the face of one of the men who relentlessly pursues its henchmen and deals with their interrogations. Mr. Addington volunteered for public service, not a death sentence with Congressional encouragement. Mr. Delahunt is both a vile liar and a cowardly lion willing to roar down at Mr. Addington while encouraging terrorists to do his dirty work in a war he has been ineffective at stopping.

The left, while attacking Charlie Black for stating the obvious -- that a terrorist incident helps the GOP politically because they are seen as more competent in the national security arena -- is defending this degradation of congressional discourse and vile swipe at Mr. Addington.

This discourse — a member of Congress glad Al Qaeda has a face it can pursue — is beneath the dignity of the Congress and beneath the dignity of civil discourse in this country.

If you do not call your Congressman today and demand the House of Representatives, at the very *least*, censure Congressman Delahunt, well damn us all. We have no right to carry on our fight.

The number is 202-224-3121 and Congressman Delahunt's email address is william.delahunt@mail.house.gov.

And some intrepid reporter should ask Mr. Obama what he thinks of this. After all, Mr. Delahunt was one of Mr. Obama's early supporters and is now an Obama superdelegate. Of course, you can ask Barack Obama yourself at (866) 675-2008.

When you call your Congressman, you should make sure he knows an apology from Mr. Delahunt will not suffice. Delahunt clearly is lying about and denying his statement. "I'm sorry" would just be more of the same.

The Half Trillion Dollar Giveaway

The United States of America is on a course for self destruction on an unprecedented scale. At today's prices we are poised to transfer a Half Trillion Dollars of our wealth over to the Canadians, Mexico, Saudi Arabia, Nigeria, Venezuela, Dubai and the other countries that we import Oil from.
While Europe, you know those guys who scold us for not signing the Kyoto Protocol, is preparing to build dozens and dozens of Coal Fired Electrical plants, we haven't built a single one in 30 years. We've heard of ecological disasters if we do so, and yet, China has built over 1000 of them over the past decade. Where's the Global Warming? Instead the past 2 years have seen some of the coldest winters on record, with record snowfall in North America, some of which contributed towards the flooding in Colorado.
The U.S. has an estimated 800 Billion Barrels of oil, yet we're keeping most of it locked away for what? To help our Arab Friends?
In our rush to 'fix' something that we don't understand, we said we were doing it to help those least fortunate. The world's poor, and yet the poorest around the world are paying for our policies in the form of higher than ever food prices, and literally starving because of this. How many people will have to die before we do something?
We read story after story of Truckers leaving the Hauling business, Airlines dumping planes, and firing pilots, in February alone the U.S. lost 63,000 jobs, and yet what's being done?
In 2005, the U.S. Trade deficit was running at 60.9 Billion per month, of that almost half was Oil, and that was when Oil was 1/3rd of the price it is today! Yet as far back as 2005, Democrats in Congress were doing everything they could to either stop domestic drilling, or keep our country from expanding any kind of Fossil Fuels, and the picture hasn't changed at all today.
We see stories on the Discovery Channel on how Dubai and others are building Massive Gleaming Towers, even entire cities off the oil money that we are providing, while we lose thousands of jobs. Jobs that could be provided by a renewed Oil industry here in the U.S. and jobs that would be created by consumers actually having cash in their hands to spend. The average suburban household is now spending almost $300.00 a month more for gas than they did just 3 years ago, how many coffee shops will have to close, how many bakeries, how many electronics stores, hair salons, cell phone shops, how many stores in the Malls will have to close, because the American family must divert cash they once spent in their local neighborhoods and are now giving it to Venezuelan and Middle Eastern Thugs.
While demand for Gas is down, which in theory should lower prices, that hasn't happened because the speculators see the Democrats stopping any and every proposal to build Nuclear, Coal or any power plant for that matter. Even Solar powered plants are being hampered by excessive regulations. The speculators assume, rightly so, that the U.S. Economy needs more investments in energy, but this is not happening, so the claims of Barrack Obama and other Democrats that "drilling won't help for 10 years", is just foolishness. If the speculators see that we're doing something about the situation, they will start reducing or even liquidating their positions in Oil, and that will help reduce prices now.
I was at the supermarket yesterday talking to a woman in line about this, her response was that we shouldn't drill because she was sure they'd do something like come up with a Paint that generates Solar Power. When I said to her, but lady my $35,000.00 Sedan and my $45,000.00 SUV runs on Gas, am I just supposed to throw those away? Her response was that I should have thought about that when I bought those cars. I said, You've got to be kidding me? Gas was a 1/3rd the price it is today when I bought those cars. Besides that, even if they DID invent that magic Solar Spray paint. When will it go into production? We don't yet have the technology to replace fossil fuels, so do we just do without? And up north, next winter, do the people simply freeze to death because they don't have their Solar Powered heaters?
You see, that's the Democrats response. "Oh well, too bad you suburbanites, you should move to downtown and use public transportation". When you really think about it, this is an assault on the "Red State". The States where most of the population lives outside of town. Where most of the population has to drive long distances and where they have no public transportation. It's the Democrats way of pushing these people who are unaware of the games being played to vote Democrat next time. They're banking on the fact that most Americans will blame their woes on the President and by proxy his party. This is their strategy to win in November.

What can you do? Sign the Drill Here, Drill Now, Pay Less Petition. Also, participate in Operation Drill Bit, let's flood Washington with Drill bits along with a letter letting them know that we're on to them.

We all know that the future belongs to Solar, the question is will we get there in prosperity and in style, or will we get there, beaten broken and in misery.
