A Reponse To A Freeper......
The Freeper said....Voters, fellow Americans, Citizens of this Great Country of ours,

Remember this: All the social issues in the world don't matter if we don't have a strong military and a strong National Security strategy and policy.........


My reply is as follows....

Great point....I took all of that into consideration last week as I filled out my Mail in Ballot....Our military is in a state of low moral, they know that their Commander and Chief is an idiot....they know that their SOD is an arrogant uncaring cheapskate who sent them into Iraq without being properly equipped to defend themselves from IED, they would like to see him resign yesterday....and Dick the Chief of everything that is evil about this administration...he is a friggin war profiteer....

Now on to strategy,,,,what is this administration strategy for Iraq??? The same ole three words recently repackaged...STAY THE COURSE....I have listen to bush stump several times since he started playing the DEM DONT Have A Plan and you know what I still haven't heard his plan....I guess CON-rad Burns was right.....its a secret...so why should the DEMS reveal theirs????.......BUSH'es selfish go it alone attitude will continue to elongate our stay in Iraq.....Why hasn't bush been able to keep the world engaged in Iraq...how many country's have cut their presence in half or just cut and run????.....bush believes that bombs,bullets and bullshit are good policy......What about just a plain old diplomacy....I guess after he pissed the world off and invaded Iraq that pretty much went out the window....

When you go into the booth today ask yourself have you been properly served by those who represent you in your city,state and on the federal level...if not forget about seniority boot them out....

1. My brother knows from experience
and he'll be the first to tell you: if you want a better military, vote Democrat. I guess he just wanted the type of body armor they promised him...

4. good points, also ...
All the "strong" military in the world won't protect us when the young and disenfranchised in our own country start turning against the center. When they start dropping out emotionally, economically, financially and, a few, violently, the center will not hold.
These stupid idiots never seem to get it -- when you drag the pendulum too far in one direction, it always "corrects" to the opposite
side.

5. China has a strong military defense and a strong security
strategy. You might ask 'em if they'd like to live in China.
The little things do count, or should.

6. And, if I recall correctly, the Germans were more afraid of the
Russians taking over than the English/Americans ...

As the Russians were advancing on Berlin, Hitler said "f*ck it" and committed suicide ...
