Two Great Reads on the Folly of the Democrats
Did you notice how gleeful Nancy Pelosi was after the passing of the non-binding resolution of defeat? Well, Blue Star Chronicles did.
Nancy Pelosi Smiles While Telling the World America Can Not Be Trusted. Yes, it’s true. The message that was sent to the world in the 1960s is being reinforced by the democrats in Congress.
Please read the entire post. At least the Pelosi could have looked sullen after this vote, just as if a teenager in her district had been denied access to an abortion.
Additionally, Blue Star Chronicles, caught this great public letter addressed to Reid and Pelosi from Charlie Daniels. Now I usually make sport of the intellectual prowess of celebrities, but this letter is right on target:
An Open Letter to Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi
Dear Sir and Madam,
You have said often enough that you don't believe in the war in Iraq and
that you want to bring the troops home. Yet all you do is talk and sign
non-binding resolutions which only goes to show that you really don't mean
what you say about ending the war or that you're just playing political
games and in doing so giving aid and comfort to a dedicated enemy.
Now if you're serious about ending the war you have the means and the votes to do just that. Simply cut off the funding for the troops, bring them all home and the American people can transfer the deed to this war and the
ramifications of what you do to the Democrat party and you can live with the results.
You say you support the troops, but that has to be a lie. If you supported
them and you truly think the war is wrong, you'd bring them home or either
dispense with the poisonous rhetoric and get in behind them and help them
get the job done.
You can't have it both ways. If you support the troops do something. Your
party won a majority in both houses, so you have control so take the
responsibility.
Of course, I think you should remember that when the terrorists follow us
home from Iraq and start their attacks on American soil it's too late, so
you'd better have a plan to deal with it. Do you have a plan?
And if Iran goes into Iraq and makes it a staging ground for Al Qaida to
plan and carry out attacks all over the western world you'll need to deal
with that. Do you have a plan?
And if Iran decides to go into Kuwait and cut off the oil flow from the
Persian Gulf, you'll need a way to make up for the shortfall. Do you have a
plan?
The world would look at us as a country that has not finished a commitment to war since 1945. Do you have a plan for dealing with that?
The purpose of this letter is to call your bluff. I don't believe you have
the guts to do anything but talk and talk is cheap. Oh you have no shortage of words but I seriously doubt the amount of backbone you have.
Do you really think that signing a non binding resolution is really fooling
anybody into thinking you're anything less than career politicians trying to tip the scales of the O08 Presidential Election.
What you're doing is silly and dangerous. If you really don't like what's
going on, change it, do something about it. You've got the power but have
you got the guts?
Pray for our troops.
What do you think?
God Bless America
