America - Land in Peril because of the Gutless
A NEW SONG: Where Has All The Backbone gone….gone to jelly everyone….When Will They Ever Learn, When Will They Eveeeerrrrr Learn?
According to press reports “…Senator Warner, an influential Republican on defense matters, urged President George W. Bush to announce by Sept. 15 a plan to begin withdrawing U.S. troops from Iraq…” This gutless politically correct Senator may want to demoralize the troops and “surrender”, his choice. Reprehensible, but his choice.
But, I can tell you there will be thousands of screaming, committed, patriotic, flag waving, hard nosed Americans that utterly reject surrender, and we will be standing on the streets, “boots on the ground” in Washington, DC, on September 15, 2007.
Eagles locked arm in arm, shoulder to should, still committed to the oath we took to “support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God.” We will not shrink our duty…we will lift America, we will give hope to our troops, and honor our memorials to our fallen, missing and their families.
In Senator Warner’s words, “We simply cannot as a nation stand and continue to put our troops at continuous risk of loss of life and limb without beginning to take some decisive action,'’ “Warner, who returned from Iraq last week and met with top administration officials yesterday, said during a news conference at the Capitol.”
The only area I agree with Warner is “decisive action”….. but the “decisive action” is not “surrender”, but to attack………we should have been attacking Iran and Syria years ago……..the gutless cowardly Congress has fought and rejected a winning strategy for years, openly defied the Commander in Chief, hypocritical in voting to go to war and then threatening to not fund it; contributed significantly to the disunity in America, encouraged and emboldened the enemy, and the Commander in Chief has listened to spineless advisors with a “cannon fodder” mentality………attack, attack, attack should have been the cry from day one until unequivocal victory…….if we know where the threat is, why in God’s name would we give them sanctuary; let them continue to attack and kill our warriors without consequence, without accountability?
Now the JCS wants to withdraw troops, General Petraeus and our leaders on the ground don’t, the Administration seems against it, Congress is leaning toward withdrawal…………who in hell is in charge? Is the Commander in Chief in charge or not? If he is then, there is only one way…attack, attack, attack………….
Leadership in Washington, DC may be guilty of criminal activity…I can think of nothing more despicable that having the wherewithal to win but choose to surrender..giving the enemy the advantage, giving the Islamic butchers hope to hold on, just like the gutless leaders in Congress and anti-war movement of the 60s and 70s led us down the surrender path, sacrificing the lives of our men and women warriors to satisfy personal political agendas. Where are the patriots with a backbone?…. gone to jelly everyone………..
Let us sing an old song in Washington, DC on September 15….that old song is “Victory, Victory, Victory…America, The Land of the Free Because of The Brave.
