Re: [AsburyPark] Re: Blaming The President?
If now is not the time to discuss this, when the tradgedy is a reality and clearly on everyopne's mind, when is? 6 months? 12 months? 100 years? History will be the ultimate judge, but how many tradgedies must be suffered before it's politically correct to raise the difficult questions? Tony, That's exactly the problem. We live in a period of time where Joe McCarthy II is in charge. He makes Nixon look like a saint. You simply CAN NOT have a reasonable argument that makes the president look wrong. This president is never wrong. He never hears from anyone that disagrees with him, fires those that do, and believes that stubbornness - even when wrong - is a good trait rather than to evolve and change your mind or perspective on things. I cannot believe that anybody else would have gotten away with changing the reasons a nation was led into war as many times as this president has done. This is one of the most difficult decisions a president has to make and he lied to us repeatedly over what our soldiers are dying for. But you've gotta give the administration credit. They've successfully branded anyone with a different opinion as unpatriotic and made a lot of good people keep their mouth shut for the past few years. I'm still waiting for someone to be brave enough and admit that we were wrong: 1 Saddam didn't have weapons. He was just king of the hill and wanted his nation to believe he had weapons to fear him. 2 We will have spent about TEN times the amount the president originally said this war in Iraq was going to cost by the time it's over (if ever) 3 We have done very, very little to protect homeland security since 9/11 - all you had to do is take a train or subway during the past 4 years to wonder when changes were going to happen 4 The border has been opened up during a period of time when we're supposed to be stopping terrorism. Why make it easier for them to come across into the US? 5 We have not only stretched our military forces thin but our reaching all-time lows as far as recruiting goes. Nobody wants to be sent to war forever. And yet, people are scared to discuss this. Folks, discussing this is NOT UNPATRIOTIC it is the opposite. It is the most patriotic thing we can do. Silence is what kills a nation. I have German blood running through my veins and I know that it was the silence that led that nation into ruin. When people fail are afraid to speak up, what does that say about the freedoms we are supposedly having soldiers die for? Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~-- Get fast access to your favorite Yahoo! Groups.
