I heard this and agree we should not pander over Iraq
Except all NeoCons are not Jewish
But a lot of the originals were
Strong on Israel and nation building
Weak on culture war
Not unexpected really
But Rush took the leftist tactic
Smear rather than refute
You’re better than that Rush
Specifically which memo are you referring to?
Is Limbaugh supporting Jeb Bush’s candidacy?
I’ve listened to Rush, he seems to take Reagan’s 11th commandment to heart, speak no evil against any Republican in these past few months. That’s about all I can say on it.
And I’d say, No, he’s not really supporting Jeb Bush.
Presidents, and that includes Bush, purposely only internalize the facts that support their position. You could put them through a lie detector test and they would pass if asked direct questions. With that said, we were manipulated into going to battle for purposes different than stated which is, stabilizing the region and defeating our enemies. The reason I say this is that the only way to defeat your enemy is to totally crush him. This leads to a rebuilding on principles of law and order to stabilize a country around a Constitution and the will of the people to live freely.
The vast majority of people in the world and especially in the ME want a strong man dictator. Even in America, a slim majority want a strong man in charge.
We should have never interfered other than to destroy and send the message that we can do so at will if messed with.
As America has show over the centuries, we kill a “bad guy” then install our own “good guy” who is only different from the previous ruler in that he initially conforms to our wishes. We call this “bringing freedom” to the “oppressed”. When the new guy T’s us off, we install another “good/bad guy”...infinity... Not since WW II have we had success with this strategy and only then because we had the only working nuclear weapons, the most powerful military, and an intact industrial powerhouse to impose our will on countries that already had been ordered societies for centuries. None of the above facts apply to Afghanistan, Crapistan, Iraq or Libya. They simply do not wish to base their lives around Liberty.
