Advice From the Hindu Kush (Oliver North on Romney)
Creatots Syndicate ^ | September 28, 2012 | Oliver North

Posted on 09/27/2012 11:43:44 AM PDT by jazusamo

EN ROUTE TO AFGHANISTAN — Dear Gov. Romney,

It seems as if every pundit, campaign consultant and professor of political science has been on the air or in print lately, offering advice on how you can "jump-start," "turn around" or "reset" your presidential campaign. Most of them say that your best chance of "regaining momentum" will be during the upcoming presidential debates. Seeing as I will be in Afghanistan keeping company with our American heroes while you're debating their current commander in chief, this seems like a pretty good time to send you some of what I have heard them say.

~snip~

—If you make me your commander in chief, I will bow to God Almighty — but never to a foreign potentate.

—I never will apologize for the blood and treasure our country has sacrificed in offering others the hope of freedom.

—I never will send young Americans to fight in difficult and dangerous places without telling them who our enemy is and without providing them what they need for victory.

—I never will call an act of terrorism "workplace violence."

—I never will abandon America's steadfast allies — or demand they surrender territory essential to their very survival.

—I will be unequivocal about ensuring that Iran cannot acquire nuclear weapons, and I assure you we will build and deploy ballistic missile defenses to defend our homeland and the American people.

—I never will announce an arbitrary deadline for withdrawing from battle and give advantage to our adversaries.

—I will rebuild our intelligence capabilities and won't tolerate leaks of classified information that puts brave Americans or those who work with us at greater risk.

—I won't beg the Russians — or anyone else — for more "space," saying I can be more "flexible" after an election.

.... if you elect me [Romney] as our next president, I never will allow our flag to be defiled with a campaign logo ...

Obama tried to usurp the American flag for campaign propogana and ended up with an 'Obama Cult Flag' ... the cult flag has been withdrawn from the campaign website but this image remains in our memories:

I was totally beside myself when I first saw that abomination, he and his supporters responsible for that are childish fools and border on being traitors.

Thanks for posting.

“border on being traitors’ ???

I say that 3/4 of this administration should be indicted for treason, malfeasance & other crimes.

They have been totally disgusting.

Thanks for the ping jaz. I hope Romney addresses these issues outlined by the service members, and Lt. Col. North. It can only help.

Yeah, but then we’d have to spend a jillion dollars cleaning up the mess from all the senior officer heads that exploded with the announcement.

I can live with that.

Yeah, but what a way to get some of those hacks out of the loop.

That’s actually a mish mash and perversion of both the American Flag and the Indonesian flag. The Indonesian flag has five red stripes and four white.

Thank you for the ping, Jaz.

God bless Ollie for sending those messages to Gov. Romney from our precious troops. If Romney talks that talk in the debates and walks that walk when elected, he will be one of our finest presidents.

I’m skeptical about the formerly-liberal governor, but he can certainly redeem his reputation by becoming a real Republican, leaving his RINO days behind him.

Amen, TOL.

I don't believe he could have worded that message from the troops any better.

Like you I'm skeptical of Romney but praying he'll be a topnotch CinC and straighten out our foreign policy.
