Maybe it’s just me, but when I watch poker players I don’t see them telling the people they’re playing against that the game will be over at midnight no matter what.
I haven’t played racquetball players who say, “Let me throw these last five points because I’ve got to get out of here by six.”
I haven’t seen too many football games where people say, “We’re not playing the fourth quarter. It’s late and we’ve got to get home to watch Desperate Housewives.”
But when it comes to warfare, many of the highly paid politicians whom we elected to represent us seem to think it is their mandate to quit no matter what the cost and to make sure that our enemy knows this.
Let’s be clear on this. As I said in my previous post HILLARY CLINTON CAN NOT STOP THE WAR ON TERROR. She can’t stop the war now as a Senator and won’t be able to stop it as President (shudder). By the way, Hillary doesn’t seem to even know where the war is. She thinks the war is in Iraq, apparently. She got this from the media.
We do have a lot of soldiers, sailors, marines, and airmen in Iraq, and they are fighting. They are fighting in the War on Terror in Iraq, but Iraq is not the war. It is a battleground in the war. We have soldiers, sailors, marines, airmen, FBI guys, and CIA operatives in a lot of places fighting the war.
So here’s the way it could work. Hillary gets elected President (shudderbarfgoodgod). She has enough Democratic buddies in Congress (barfshuddergodbarfgeezelouise) to defund (or zero the funding for) the war effort. Troops are called home (assuming we have the money to transport them home). We have a parade, declare major combat operations over, and watch as Iraq and the rest of the Middle East come under Iranian control (except for the Kurds who have had it with subjugation, oppression, and terror and are ready to tear any perceived enemy’s head off at the slightest provocation).
Hillary will begin “negotiations” with Iran, Syria, Libya, the Palestinians (not to be confused with Palestine) and East Timor in an effort to improve our approval ratings with radical Islamic countries. Doubling our approval rating in those countries would raise it to about two percent. These “negotiations” will continue while Hezbollah and Hamas attack Israel, radical Islamic groups attack France (who cares), England, Germany, Italy, and Denmark. Hillary will convince the voting public that these attacks are our fault because we did not successfully curb global warming or provide universal health care.
That brings up The Answer. The Answer from the Hillary Administration for responding to Radical Islam will be universal, government mandated health care. It won’t be paid for or provided by the government. Even Hillary isn’t dumb enough to try and take over the nurse’s unions. So it will be mandated rather than provided.
But, that’s not the point. The point is that the distraction of trying to provide universal one-size-fits-all health care will kill all interest in the war. At least it will kill our interest. The big question is “Will the enemy respect that we have lost our will to fight and are too busy to continue the War on Terror?”
The Other Answer is “No, you idiot. They’re still going to try to kill you.”
