Bill Maher is a joke.....

Forgive me, Lord, I know he is one of Your creatures and You love him, but I can't excuse this:

Three YEARS after 9/11, now we hear Bill Maher criticize President Bush for staying with the schoolchildren in the Florida classroom for seven minutes that morning. Yep, libs everywhere have just recently "realized" the audacity of a man who didn't decide to run out of that classroom, arms whipping in the air, going quickly to "do" something.

Let's see....could he have used his superpowers to fly to DC and singlehandedly stop the plane headed for the Pentagon with his powerful cowboy hat??

Exactly WHAT could he have done in those seven minutes which would have prevented anything that transpired on that horrendous day? Nothing. But I guess he could've appeased Maher and his buddies by just "doing" something, because liberal mantra dictates style over substance and "doing" rather than "being".

I saw a President that morning in two ways---first as a human, horrified by what he heard, quick to react (yes, Bill, QUICK) and decisive, wanting to return to DC ASAP and addressing the nation that very night from what could have been the intended fourth target of the day. Second--I saw him as a sea of calm and reassurance in a raging nightmare (and even moreso, Mayor Guliani), showing the nation exactly how to react to show the world that our enemies will never destroy us. With all the cameras that were in that classroom that morning, imagine the Katie Courics and Bryant Gumbels of the day (Gumbel was still on the CBS Early Show at the time) react with shock as our President "panicked" in a time of crisis, all the time the cameras in that classroom racing down the hallway to capture images of a Commander-in-Chief in panic mode. Yet that mindset now rebuke him for not doing that very same thing.

Oh, and by the way, Senator Kerry sat in an office watching TV with other senators, frozen by what they saw, until they saw the Pentagon explode from their own window. I could be crass and say, "John Kerry was not DOING anything for over 30 minutes; he must not have cared about the citizens of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts." I think that statement is a bunch of bogus crap, too. Everyone had a right to be stunned for a moment.....even our leader.

So the bottom line is two-fold:

1) Bill Maher critcizes President Bush for a) acting calmly, and b) like a human, for 7 minutes (like no federal, state, or local authorities could move a muscle to help until the President's body was actually in motion, pointed in the direction of DC---you know--- WAIT NYPD, GEORGE ISN'T POINTED NORTH YET!!)----but he absolutely loves a guy who gets sexual favors from an intern while on the phone with a Congressman in the Oval Office. Oh, that's because he was still "doing" something....kinda gives "action speaks louder than words a whole new, and deplorable, meaning...)

2) The "7-minute" criticism was conveniently placed on a three-year delay.....just in time for the homestretch of election season.

FAR more importantly than their reaction to any old Kerry war story controversy, THIS shows me the reality of those who want Kerry in the White House as good as anything except for that other mantra.....

"Anybody but Bush"

Hey libs, I hear Saddam Hussein is available....interested? After all, he's not Bush.....
I found this upcoming link at one of my favorite blogs.

Click here to remember why we don't "wait for an attack, and then respond".....

Click here to see a wonderful common sense blog from a lady having to deal with the Greater Philadelphia area, and still stand up for conservative values....

I know I said I wouldn't be too political on this blog, but this one couldn't be given a free pass.....
