Of Pens and Swords

This isn’t the place you want to be,

So he loaded up the truck and moved to Germany;

K-town that is…..

So in the headlines today, I see that Senator Clinton is saying that “If she were president in 2000, she wouldn’t have gone to war.” She also says, if elected, she’ll get get us out of the war.

Talk about what-if’n something. If she were president….nothing like a Clinton to show the strength of the American people. President Clinton did it to us, spread our military to a breaking point, and when pushed came to shove, in a place called Somolia, well, he couldn’t take the pressure and let thugs run us out. Just common, everyday thugs. What strength the American’s have…we make fun of the frenchies, and the thugs make fun of us.

Now, if she’s elected in ’08, she’s going to pull us out of war. Goddamn, are the American people that blind? Well, nevermind, yes they are. We’re a self-serve people that can’t see much past next payday….get us what we want now, no matter the consequence….

Do you people out there understand that this IS NOT VIETNAM?! The Vietnamese people had no intentions of following us back home and killing us here, on our ground, in our streets, at OUR KIDS SCHOOLS! They wanted their country to do whatever things they wanted to do. This is not the goddamned case here. The people we’re engaging here want to kill us. The way these people think, they way they are, this will never go away now. They fucking hold grudges for 1700 years for christ’s sake, over the most trivial matters. What makes any of you think that this is going to go away now if we just pull out.

So I never supported going into Iraq in the first place. That has no bearing on the fact that we’re there now, we have to stay. We now have an obligation to protect our children, our future, from people who have no qualms about getting on a plane and bringing the fight to us.

But, Senator Clinton is going to stop all that. Yee Haw. What the fuck ever…Maybe she’ll pick Ms. Fonda for the 2^nd…or CoS. I’m beginning to believe that the whole PC business, where everyone is right, and give me my stuff now, who cares about the future, is going to be the downfall of us. I have thought this for some time, but never really serious about it. Rome fell for the same reasons a few hundred years ago…They didn’t have big screen tv’s and gas guzzling SUV’s though, so it’s completely different, huh…

Pull your head out of your asses people. We’re in this fight for the long haul. I’m not talking 20 years…talking 20 generations.

Pull your head out, and do some research. Don’t pay attention to all the news reports that come out, the statements from our enemies, how a few are blowing up their neighbors. Pay attention to what we’re accomplishing over there right now…It’s harder to do since for some reason, our government doesn’t want to let positive news come out of the country…but that doesn’t matter now, does it. Nobody here gives a damn that we’ve provided protection to most of the country, we’re rebuilding schools, and water treatment facilities, communications networks, hospitals…not a single one of you care about that though, do you? Didn’t think so. All you care about is that a few American’s have died, most of which none of you ever have known nor cared about to begin with. All you care about is that you feel that We, the American people, are above all transgression, since we’re so enlightened. Being so enlightened, you’ve never once thought about what it takes to keep your fat, happy asses sitting comfortably in front of the TV to watch your shows every night…what it takes to make sure everyone has 3 cars for a 4 person family…a bunch of spineless complainers, each one of you, never willing to do what it takes to get anything done, if it doesn’t affect you personally.

I’m not even sure what I’m trying to protect anymore…It used to be my country, and our way of life….but that way of life has strayed into the purely selfish. I know try to protect my family, which is getting smaller by the day.

Go ahead, hire another Clinton to be president. Show the world we mean business, and that business is pulling out. Show the world that we can say, Fuck Y’all to everybody….even to our own people, our own kids. Show the world that even though our memories only last for no more than 6 months, we have the strength, and even more importantly, the money, to survive a long lasting war on our own ground, in our own back yard.
