The most sacred duty of a President? Protect the nation.
I remember Cheney's promise..."Help is on the way." We were promised administration by adults. W had access to all his father's brain trust. Cheney was a former Chief of Staff and Secretary of Defense. I assume they recognized the threat, WHICH THEY DID NOT CREATE. Who, really, says they were the masterminds of 9/11? That's straw man nonsense. Stop it please.
The Algore nonsense put the new administration behind schedule. Tom Daschle played prevent defense with administration appointees. Trent Lott rolled over and peed on himself.
A President needed to stand on his hind legs and say, "Tom Daschle and the Senate are playing politics with the security of the nation. Trent Lott is MIA."
Had W taken them to the woodshed the history would be much different. Had they not responded history would show they were responsible for leaving the nation undefended. Rove would have achieved his generational realignment.
No, W was committed to his d@mnable "New Tone." He was going to be the President of all the people. He was going to show good manners. He chose (poorly, in my opinion) and the Twin Towers burned. They were a casualty of what we now call the Establishment.
Trump is correct..."The Buck Stops Here." A Presidential election is the proper place for this discussion. Trump, God bless him, is raising all kinds of uncomfortable truths. The only question in my mind?
We're being offered a change. Can we recognize it as such, or will we as a whole remain stuck in out plantation mentality?
Trump gets marked down on style points...I DON'T GIVE A D@MN. He's out there on an island. I said months ago it would be a miracle if he won because he had to take on the RATS and the LSM and the 'intelligentsia' and his own party, and sadly...those who should have the sense to be this allies.
You wish Trump said that, unfortunately he didn’t
