37. “Tired of Swatting Flies”
Does anyone else here see the significance of that statement? Consider this:

You’re a bunch of old cold warriors. You’re used to seeing every reversal of US fortune abroad as a cleverly disguised attack from the USSR. The USSR is gone, but the attacks continue.

Your Pinko opponents see a shadowy network of fundamentalist Muslims called "al Qaeda". But you’re not so easily fooled. You see state sponsored terrorism coming from an Axis of Evil.

While the Pinkos want you follow international law and arrest the terrorists, you know that defeating the evil doers is the only option. And that means invasion and occupation.

So how can you convince the US public and your allies to see things your way? Simple: STOP SWATTING FLIES.
