We have a contingency of hippy hold outs who believe that surrender and the subsequent slavery to totalitarians is preferable to fighting for freedom. I know, I know, they are a smelly, ridiculous bunch... trouble is, they are in positions of power called Congress, and backed by another position of power called the Hitler Press.
It is very hard to overcome these groups when you have no power other than logic, reason, and truth. After all, they can't be expected to waste their time with such nonsense.
We have that waste of DNA Bill Clinton who has stated that "the war was the right thing to do" but also claims it "was a mistake." To those of us who think first and feel second, this makes no sense. How can something be right and a mistake? And why the 180 degree change in direction?
Oh wait... it's Bill Clinton. OK, that explains the "blow with the breeze" change in direction, but still leaves unanswered the "right thing and mistake" comment.
It would appear from history that such is the hippy liberal rationale. Like the spoiled little children they are, their cries can be heard across the world: "It's haaaaaard... I don't wanna!" If we left everything to them, we'd be knee deep in hairy legs and communism, kumbaya and bongs, dirty hair and blow jobs.
Hmmm... another explanation as to why Bill Clinton so epitomizes this group. Interesting that both explanations have the word "blow" in them, isn't it?
Here we have Congressmen who supported the war when it benefited them to do so after an outraged America demanded "something be done," but then read a few Hitler Press manufactured polls and reacted with a twist that would make Chubby Checker jealous.
They are a bloated, gassy monument to the easily led fools that pack history.
I disagree….KILL IT WITH FIRE NOW!
Being a real leader is tough work. You have to make decisions, take the helm, and direct your ship amid the many voices telling you to "Lo here" and "Lo there." You must study and make hard choices. These need to be based upon your beliefs founded in solid principles, morals, reason and priorities. We as Americans believe that freedom is paramount, which makes it our top priority. Ask any of the nations we have helped to free--except France, who is as smelly, whiny, and childish as the hippies--and they will tell you that freedom is worth the fighting and dying.
And bear in mind that the “dying” is only and always due to those who seek to kill your freedom (but never theirs), not from those seeking to defend your freedom.
The only ones who don't get it are those easily led fools who are trying to lead us.
They're even too stupid--or too cunning, depending on whether or not you believe them to be idiotic stooges or fiendish manipulators--to grasp the fact that never ever in history has an evil regime stopped its behavior of its own accord. Not once, not ever.
It has taken men of conviction and purpose to stop those who would steal our freedoms, our beliefs, our God, our families, and our lives.
These are the men who should be leading us... not the current collection of con-men, the same fools who actually believe that writing a few angry letters, sanctioning, and shaking our fingers at foul leaders will cause them to say, "Hmmm... I need to stop my evil ways and work for the betterment of mankind."
Since those who defend matter most in making decisions regarding it, here is what my friend "R", who served two tours in Iraq, has to say: If we withdraw now, we and Iraq lose... We need to take an aggressive posture. We need to double or triple the troop strength, secure the borders as much as possible, and then train an Iraqi Army. This last step is long overdue, and may be too late... Our only path to victory is a strong Iraqi Army.
This hardly sounds like the outlandish Congressional and media logic of handing the keys over to them and leaving the candy store.
Sanctions never work, especially not in the long run or in overthrowing wicked regimes; they only hurt the innocents of the nation. Males such as Saddam or Kim Jong Il do not suffer from sanctions... there is ALWAYS money out there if you threaten and murder and blackmail enough, and the hippies have proven over and over again that blackmail works if the evil leaders hold out long enough, threaten long enough, and throw in the occasional high-impact murder enough. They seem to truly believe that you can buy the right thing from men who have no intention of ever doing the right thing, and who have made it undeniably clear that the only thing on their minds is the wrong thing.
The fact is, freedom requires vigilance to keep it. That vigilance requires warriors to be its defender. Those defenders require countrymen who stand with them to create a united front that will not be spinelessly led to defeat. And those countrymen require a law and a leader who understands it’s his job to protect and defend those countrymen and their freedoms.
What we have now is a Congress and a media who appear to have not known that war is hard work, and that good young men die doing that hard work. This is absolutely unacceptable in a leadership, and they should all be fired and even brought to trial.
You do not tell the enemy where you plan to bomb, what your plans are for a battle, and when you will be leaving! You kill and destroy them until they submit--and I mean total submission--and then rebuild among the good people of the nation who understand what has been paid for them. And you never, ever, EVER leave before the job is done, and done right! You listen to the men on the ground who have gained the trust and rapport of the people and you kill your ego because you love the law and the people it represents and defends.
YOU are NOT the law. YOU have NO power here. But WE do. And maybe you need some painful reminding of that fact.
One of the things that we as Americans believe is that freedom is worth any cost; not just American freedom, but the freedom of brothers everywhere. Apparently Congress has decided that some people are worth freeing while others are not.
We either believe in freedom or we don't. That belief is not conditional, it is universal and total. The hard reality is that the desire of wicked men to take away your freedom always begins with them taking away someone else's freedom first.
In 1981, Israel was the only nation on earth with the balls to "put up or shut up."
Saddam was just finishing up a facility that would produce nuclear weapons for him to use at his all-too-evil discretion. Israel bombed it into oblivion, and Iraq never recovered enough to rebuild what was lost. No one on earth with an IQ higher than their shoe size could believe that his first target wouldn't be Jerusalem. But for Israel and “Operation Opera,” Saddam, who fancies himself the third Nebucanezer, would have gone down in Islam's already wretched history as the one who extinguished the Jews.
There is also no doubt that America would have been next. But for Israel's chutzpah, there would be no "exit strategy" to discuss... we'd all be an ashen memory, and the world would be in the clutches of Islammunism--the secret combination of the two greatest evils on earth: Islam and Communism. The USSR would never have fallen--which it has done in name only; communism is alive and well, mostly thanks to the femmies and hippies here in America--and all that would have resulted from our policy of capitulation and nasty UN letters would have been more nukes, more wild regimes, and less freedom.
Had Israel wasted time talking as the UN and present-day America tends to do, we would be speaking of them in past tense. No one knows more of the dangers of looking the other way while wickedness takes over the leaders of a nation than does Israel. They learned that lesson the hard way 70 years ago, when they and their fellow Europeans chose to ignore the ominous rumblings from both the Nazis and the communists.
They weren't the only ones who paid dearly for that choice. They weren't the only ones who swore "Never again."
They appear to be the only ones, however, who will actually do anything about it.
What would Israel do? Don't ask Congress; they are far too easily led to believe in, and far too evil to trust.
Pray, America, because that ancient den of thieves is here. And take hope. Evil will always rear it’s ugly, Pelosi head. It will always attack the righteous. It may even kill the righteous. Or so it thinks. Because it’s a fool.
The good survive. The good come back. The good win.
Keep the faith, bros, in all things courage, and no substitute for VICTORY.
