 CAN CYNTHIA MCKINNEY BE UNSEATED?
There is some good news from yesterday's primaries in Georgia. Last Evening's Moonbat Ball didn't go quite as planned. Cynthia (the cutest little Jihadist in Congress) McKinney invited her fellow moonbat and bosom buddy Cindy Sheehan (Omigod! Two Cindys!) to her victory party last night ... only there was no victory! There were more votes cast against Cynthia McKinney yesterday than votes for her. Now she's in a runoff with Democrat Hank Johnson who, by the way, is a supporter of the FairTax! There is a ray of hope that Georgia's embarrassment, might be sent packing by the voters ... again! We'll have plenty to say about this as the runoff approaches! FAIRTAX RESULTS! As I told you, The FairTax was on the primary ballots in three Georgia counties yesterday. I have the results of the voting! Here you go. These are all metro Atlanta counties: Gwinnett County: Total Votes: 35,755
Yes - 31,068. 86.9%
No - 4,687 13.1%
Cobb County: Total votes: 39,458
Yes - 33,598. 85.15%
No - 5,860. 14.85%
Fayette County: Total votes: 11,517
Yes - 9,828. 85.33%
No - 1,689. 14.67%
There seems to be some consistency there. In each county the FairTax received about 85% of the vote. What's more, there was something very interesting in my emails yesterday. I counted 12 emails from listeners who said that they had no intention of taking the time to vote in yesterday's primaries ... until, that is, they heard me say that the FairTax was on the ballot. At that point they made up their minds to head out and cast their vote for the FairTax. So, if 12 people took the time to send me that email, how many more felt the same way? Politicians .... are you listening? The FairTax gets votes. Simple as that. WHAT THE HELL, IT'S ONLY MONEY  Have you ever thought about how much of your tax dollars goes to fund the hospital bills of those illegal aliens in your community? The New York Times reports on an alarming dilemma that many states—particularly Texas and California—are facing. Yup ... you got it. These hospital emergency rooms cannot refuse to treat people who are in this country .. and in those emergency rooms illegally. This is starting to cost big bucks. Bucks that are taken out of your paychecks.
This from The New York Times: "Across Texas, the debate over illegal immigration has spilled into county commission hearings and hospital board meetings. A study ordered by commissioners in Harris County, which includes Houston, found that about one-fifth of the patients in its health system last year were immigrants without documents, most of them from Mexico. Their numbers had increased 44 percent in three years, the study found, and their care had cost the county $97.3 million, about 14 percent of the health system's total operating costs."
That's $97.3 million that could have been in the pockets of the people of the community. And California spent over $1 billion on health care for illegal immigrants just last year alone!" Nice, isn't it. Any illegal alien -- any invader or gate-crasher -- can just walk into an American hospital and get the same medical care that legal residents and citizens receive. They can then just waltz back across the border to home and never have to bear the responsibility for paying one cent toward their medical care. What kind of suckers are we? Some gets sick in Mexico. Some woman is about to deliver a baby in Mexico. They just walk across the border and present themselves at some American emergency room. There they are treated. Their treatment is paid for by American patients and taxpayers. The Mexican invader just heads back home without a care. AND IT'S GAY MARRIAGE YOU'RE WORRIED ABOUT? Astonishing, high-impact news coming this morning! Pamela Anderson and Kid Rock are going to get married! Alert the media! Ring the bells! The institution of marriage is safe! Pamela and Kid are going to tie the knot! What incredible news this is. The institution of marriage is safe, for what ... six months? Who knows? Maybe this lovely couple will make it long enough to begat a tricycle motor! Kid's kid! One thing for sure; we all know that these two will be held up for years to come as an example of the strength of the wonderful institution of marriage in our modern society. Well, maybe not years. Maybe weeks. Is Britney going to be a bridesmaid? TAXPAYERS TO BAIL OUT TOURISTS
 It is nauseating to watch the whining "tourists" complaining on TV about how they are stranded in Beirut and the United States isn't getting there fast enough to bail them out. There were some 25,000 Americans in Lebanon...and it's been slow going transporting them out of there. The overall perception seems to be that we're suppose to just swoop in and pull somebody's fat out of the fire who happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.
The State Department is making these rescued Americans sign promissory notes to pay back the cost of their transportation. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi is outraged. She says the United States should pick up the tab. And it looks like the taxpayers will indeed be footing the bill. As most Bush-bashers like her, she couldn't resist taking a shot at the president, comparing the transportation situation in Lebanon to Hurricane Katrina. Said Congresswoman Moonbat: "We've spent hundreds of billions of dollars in Iraq, we've paid Halliburton money that they haven't even earned, and yet we charge individual Americans who are caught in the crossfire in Lebanon for their transportation costs to get out." Yes, that's right, we do. And we should.
Beirut and the entire country of Lebanon has been a war-torn area for well over a quarter of a century. Until recently, Lebanon was occupied by a terrorist state, Syria. The Islamic terrorist group Hezbollah controls part of Lebanon. Against all common sense, if an American chooses to go to school, work or vacation in Lebanon, then they shouldn't be surprised when a war breaks out. That's what happens in Beirut because that's what's been happening for decades. Perhaps people who visit the region should do their research next time.
So it's time for a little personal responsibility here. The feds need to tell these people: you chose to go there, you knew the risks. If you want us to rescue you, it's going to cost you. Money should not be confiscated from the American people to pay for somebody else's stupidity.
And why go on vacation in Beirut, anyway? Was Pyongyang all booked up? Tehran a little too expensive this time of year?
BUSH GIVES ISRAEL A WEEK
 According to a news report running in the British press, the United States gave Israel the green light to go to war against Hezbollah. The same story also says the Bush Administration is giving Israel another week before they call on them to wrap up their war and send in the peacekeepers. This is too bad, but not unexpected.
The Bush Administration is simply following the appeasement template of the last 30 years. It goes like this: just when Israel has an Islamic terrorist group on the ropes (in this case Hezbollah but it applies to Hamas and the "Palestinians,") the administration caves in to the Euro-weenies, Islamic countries and the American Left and demands Israel use "restraint." Restraint is a weasel word that means "appeasement."
So now the same thing is happening. What we should be doing is supporting Israel as much as possible. In fact, let's encourage them! They are doing the good work that we should be doing: stamping out the Islamic terror group Hezbollah. It would be to our advantage to sit back and let them have at it. Because as we all know, Islamic terrorists are like cockroaches. No amount is acceptable and if you see one, that means there are thousands more.
But sadly, that won't happen here. Appeasement will be the order of the day and Hezbollah will be allowed to strengthen and regroup so they can kill more innocent people. All while the failed, mythical fantasy of the "Mideast Peace Process" is pursued.

So now the filthy addicts who poison people with their death sticks will have to seek lodging elsewhere. Hopefully every other hotel chain follows suit!
Israeli officials say their goal with the war is to eliminate Hezbollah. Of course, this makes appeasers all over the world shake in their boots...because the very idea that a terrorist group might be wiped off the Earth doesn't square with their agenda.
The Washington Post is running a story about conservatives breaking with George W. Bush over his foreign policy. But the real story in this article is the quote from Newt Gingrich, near the end of page one. Priceless!
