Leading Democrats, in the US Senate, have begun a renewed effort to get the US military to retreat, give-up, surrender, admit defeat, cut and run, and in any way possible show our backs to the enemy in Iraq.
You may call it anything you like, but it all boils down to one word… COWARDICE! Utter, complete, foot kissing, blubbering, pleading for mercy, COWARDICE!
It is COWARDICE of this kind that brings shame upon generations of Americans. It gives the lie to honor, and integrity, and the determination these same politicians "mouthed" when they gave the President of the US their approval to send American military forces into Iraq.
Now, they find they can’t take it. They don’t have the “testicular fortitude” to stay the course. Their own cowardice is embarrassing to them so they must cloak it in false claims of concern for the well being, and the safety, of our servicemen and servicewomen.
It is disgusting! It is shameful. It is bringing disgrace upon this nation. If they cannot find, somewhere, deep down inside themselves, the nerve, the fortitude, the courage, to stand in the face of an enemy that would cut their collective throats in the blink of an eye, then they should step down. They should resign their seats in the US Senate and go home!!! The last thing we need in the Government of the United States is COWARDICE. And COWARDICE, to this degree, is despicable!
Their actions are causing the deaths of more American servicemen, a
nd servicewomen, and prolonging the war. It encourages the enemy!One thing is absolutely certain. If we cut and run in Iraq, we will only have to return… as soon as we elect a President who has the courage of a real American.
Real Americans don’t run. Real Americans don’t quit. Real Americans give their word and stand by it… no matter the cost.
And what about all those men and women who have given their lives, on the word of those same Senators, who today would make their sacrifice, and the sacrifice of their families, totally meaningless? What about the honor of the veterans of the Iraq war? What about the honor of the United States Military? Surely, they must know that a dishonored military is worthless. Then, again, these people hate the military and they, apparently, would like to see our armed forces disgraced. That is exactly what they are suggesting with their calls for the President to bring the troops home.
We can never again allow the Democrat Party to be charged with the “National Security of the United States”. This display of their cowardice has forced them to forfeit any right, they ever had, to govern the American people.
Disgusting, despicable, discouraging, unpatriotic, un-American… call it what you will. It is all of these and more. I have no words to describe the unfathomable depths of their cowardice.

I admire your courage to fight to the last drop of somebody else's blood.
ReplyDeleteJay, as a Veteran, I paid my dues. I was a volunteer... as are the men and women in uniform today.
ReplyDeleteBesides, its not the military who want to cut and run, it is the cowardly politicians. They are bound, and determined, to do to those kids, in uniform today, what they did to those in uniform in my day. The cowards in Washington would not allow our military to win in Vietnam. The US Armed Forces, and the Veterans, of that era carry that as an albatross around their necks to this day.
Our military is not trained to lose a fight. They are trained to win and, to do whatever it takes to win. But when the limp-wristed crowd in the anti-war movement, both in Washington, and out of Washington, sells them out by snatching defeat from the jaws of victory it scars them to the bone.
Warriors cannot bear being restrained from victory. They can deal better with outright defeat.
I would advise you, sir, to thank the Vets for all they have done in all of America's wars and all they are doing now. Remember, the US Armed Forces, when they go to war, must fight the enemy facing them with guns, and the enemy in the Mainstream Media, and the enemy in the anti-war crowd, and the enemy in their own national legislature. They go to war vastly outnumbered.
If unleashed, the US Armed Forces could roll a country up inside a week. But when you ask them to rebuild what they just tore down, that is unfair to them. It cheapens their efforts at destroying it.
So, do not preach to me of a patriotism which does not support the efforts of American men, and women, in military service to their country. There is no such thing. From now on, we SHOULD question the patriotism of those who smear the efforts of the US Armed Forces.
Someone once said that a man who has nothing for which he is willing to fight is a miserable creature.
There are a number of miserable creatures in the US Senate. The would seem to understand little of the meaning of HONOR. Giving our country's word to another people, or country, and then reneging on that promise, is not only dishonorable, it is disgusting!
They are a miserable, pathetic, disgusting, substitute for men and cast a dark shadow upon the very word AMERICAN!

What is your point?
ReplyDeleteIn answer to your question: What is your point?
ReplyDelete"Not only is the American Left not helpful to America, they present a danger to to the security of the nation".
this is not a war for or about America mr. shortstreet. Its a war for oil, no I do not support it, but if the left declared war on the right in this nation I'd sure as hell fight it, just to kick some sorry republican butt! Why aren't bush's daugthers over there fighting? too busy slutting it up over here? Are yor children or grandchildren over there for a war? I think not. The only thing prolonging this war is that demonstrators against the war have "Die ins" to represent dead soldiers instead of clear acts of patriotism in taking this country back by force if necessary! And it is becoming clear hoe necessary it may be.
ReplyDeleteI wish this WAS a war about oil! It would be a much less complicated affair. But the thing that contiues to trouble me is... where is all that oil the Left swears we're fighting for? We sure as heck don't have it!
ReplyDeleteThe oil is not for you or me. it is for BP, TEXACO, CHEVRON, and also for "National security". We can no longer suck oil from the ground as fast as the world can consume it, so we need to secure as much of the world's oil for us if we wish to remain a world super power. Atleast that is how the right sees it. However it would be better to have spent the money and mental resources lost in Iraq to develope solar or wind. The real problem is that none of the companies mentioned above own the sunn or the wind! The trouble with bio-fuels is we use 10 calories in fossil fuels to produce 1 calorie in bio-fuels. Don't call us or me the left, call me and my party the "educated ones" we'll call you the ignorant ones. jackass!
