politicians

11/2/'05
Our lovely country seems to be slowly sinking into a political stupor thanks to the increasingly inane and destructive actions of Democratic politicians. As a group they haven't done anything constructive, benefitting the country since George Bush became President.

That fact alone appears to be driving their every day political actions to just destroy him and his administration, no matter what the cost to our country and the world.

Because the world indeed is going to suffer even more, as will we here, from the well financed and growing terrorist threats to our existence. All this has nothing to do with Americans not being nice enough to people in the Middle East but everything with a fanatical, religiously driven effort on the part of militant Islam to wipe Israel off the map and car-bomb us back to impotence.

Militant Islam decided WE were THEIR enemies, not the other way around and if we let them do that we will take most of the world with us. The Democrat politicians do not seem to understand that fundamental happening. They are too focussed onto their immature political games of badmouthing and character assassinating Republicans and obstructing the proper and responsible working of the Congress and the Executive Departments. It is shameful and in the end hopefully self-destructive of this Democratic effort. The USA cannot afford this home-grown obstructionism anymore. We saw what happened in Vietnam where we won militarily but lost politically only because a Democratic Congress stopped funding the Vietnam military after 1973.

We now have a new Iraq fifth-column trying to get us out of a war prematurely, but which we need to finish properly for the benefit of the Middle East and the rest of the world.

As Tony Blair said the other day, talking about Iran after the Iranian prime minister said they should wipe israel off the map: "Can you imagine such a state with such political leaders and would you want them to have nuclear weapons??"

Because that's what would also happen if we did not put Iraq and its people back on their feet sooner rather than later. Democrats don't see this or don't want to see this but do believe they know better about these things. History is against them. President Wilson said he wanted the USA to stay out of WW I when he was running for re-election in 1916, but changed his mind 4 months later. Roosevelt didn't want us in WW II, but decided Lend-Lease was necessary although it took Pearl Harbor to wake him up to the real danger. Truman pulled us out of Europe prematurely with disastrous results. Kennedy flubbed the Bay of Pigs and got us into Vietnam which Nixon got us out of against his better judgment because the country didn't understand the essential need for the conflict as a result of endless Democratic mismanagement and public relations.

Now we are in Afghanistan and Iraq and need a cohesive government that understands this could be a fight to the finish between radicalized Islamists (not all Muslims feel paranoid) and Western Civilization, which has done more good for the world than any other, bar Rome. Our Democrat politicians should grow up, admit they lost 2 elections for good reasons and get back on the team. We need everybody's help to make that happen. How about you?
