This Wasn't Supposed to Happen

Here are some of my comments from here and there in the world of politics, which I have entitled, 'This Wasn't Supposed to Happen.'

At the top of the list, of course, is the stunning revelation by veteran conservative commentator Bob Novak that Mrs. Clinton is using Nixonian 'dirty tricks' against her rivals in her own party. Mrs. Clinton stated she had explosive and scandalous information on one of her rivals. No sooner had she released the comment than Barack Hussein Obama spilled the beans that he had smoked pot and snorted cocaine back in his wild, younger days.

Of course, Mrs. Clinton is up to her neck in scandals of her own, not the least of which are planting questions all over the country in supposed 'impromptu' question and answer sessions, flip-flopping at least 3 times in one week on giving drivers' licenses to illegal aliens, accepting dirty money from Norman Hsu and at least a dozen impoverished Chinese donors who supposedly gave her campaigns tens of thousands of dollars.

No one in the mainstream media has of yet held Mrs. Clinton's feet to the fire over these dirty money pyramid schemes, which are illegal.

None of this was in the playbook of the Clinton-Democratic Party-CNN-Mainstream Media political campaign to elect Hillary, of course.


Extraordinary news from the realm of science indicates that stem cell research can be done without the use of human embryos. The stem cells created from adult skin cells are just as effective in research as the use of embryonic stem cells.

GOP Presidential candidate Fred Thompson immediately praised the research that led to the breakthrough, which of course, chaps the backsides of the abortion industry, which has a vested interest in keeping science stuck in a rut--a rut which benefits abortion mills handsomely.

Thompson stated, 'Using adult stem cells negates the need for cloning embryos to harvest their stem cells.'

The only other Presidential contender in either party who praised the latest breakthrough was Mitt Romney.

Again, this announcement comes at a very bad time for those politicians and social activists who have a vested interest in promoting the practice of abortion for the purpose of making money off of 'scientific research.' Perhaps now such persons can best be used as members of the Flat Earth Society.


Speaking of Mitt Romney, the candidate made a reprehensible comment a couple of days ago to the effect that he could support the arrest and incarceration of 'abortionists.' It is to be assumed that he is referring to physicians who perform the procedure.

While one can make a case for the fact that doctors who work exclusively in abortion mills are sleazy, untrustworthy types of the baser sort, many legitimate physicians perform the procedure for entirely legitimate medical purposes. We can see all kinds of confusing legal entanglements resulting from such a move to incarcerate physicians, not the least of which is that the move would be ripe for major mistakes.

In addition, we can just hear many women thinking to themselves that it is only a short step from jailing abortionists to jailing women who have had abortions...not a very encouraging prospect for women who have been through enough emotional angst already.

Romney should have simply kept his mouth shut. This could well be his major faux pas on the campaign trail thus far, and it is a mistake that could haunt him badly.


The Pentagon was ecstatic over the latest news from Iraq. The official statistics on fatalities, casualties, terrorist and insurgent attacks surprised even the most optimistic souls in the U.S. Government. The latest figures show a very sharp decline in violence in the region, particularly in and around Baghdad.

Reports from the region indicate that local residents are actually not afraid to venture out of their homes into the streets, and businesses are beginning to flourish once again.

Leftists and other Democrats are sure to be highly disappointed that such news is forthcoming at a time when they need desperately for America to lose. The primaries are just over a month away, and then the 2008 Presidential campaign will be on in earnest...a bad time for the Democrats to face good news on a war they need the U.S. to lose.

Despite the wonderful news that our brave men and women in the U.S. military are getting the job done, Billy Richardson stated in the last Demo debate that he disagreed that the surge in Iraq is working. In fact, he said it was failing.

My, my, Billy. When the facts are so dismal for you and your Party, just keep pretending that things are as they were back some 8 months ago, eh?

By the way, have we told you lately that you are too dumb to be President?
