While I have mostly contained links in this blog, I am extremely aggravated right now and need to vent this information. Yesterday, I posted a piece from Fred Thompson's radio show in which the Senator stated that "The War is Lost", now people are criticizing Fred and trying to say that he is doing to Obama what Senator Harry Reid did to President Bush on Iraq.
There is no comparison when discussing the comments. Senator Reid made his comments in a manner that was meant to weaken President Bush and our Military. However, Senator Thompson is stating that the "war is lost" because we have a spineless jellyfish as POTUS who lacks the integrity to make the decision necessary. We now have as a President a Commander-in-Chief who does not know how to make decisions on anything, and has to read off a tele-prompter when he is saying “Thank you”. It is clear that in his first 11 months in office he has demonstrated that he is a devoted pacifist and is more than willing to embarrass this country time and time again. He has bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia and the Prime Minister of Japan; Heads of State do not do that as it weakens the stature of The President of the United States. This is a man who has time to fly to Europe to bring the Olympics to Chicago, however, he can not fly to Germany on the anniversary of the falling of the Berlin wall and Ronald Reagan is not even mentioned by him, however, Mikhail Gorbachev is praised for his leadership!
It has been months since General Stanley McChrystal’s original request for an additional 40,000 troops and a decision still has not been made. This Entire Administration should be brought up on charges of Treason and Aiding and Abetting the Enemy in a time of War for the lack of a timely response in regards to General McChrystal’s Request.
It is a damn disgrace what he is doing to our country, out troops, our history and the United States of America. The time to rise up is now!
Good post. I believe Fred recognized that what BHO is doing in Afghanistan is precisely what the politicians did with Vietnam. Running a war effort based on politics is a surefire recipe for defeat. It's obvious to you, me, Fred, and anyone else who has a grasp of American history. Unfortunately, it's a concept lost on BHO.
