Gotta link?

To what? The post where someone said the military was not a conservative issue? That would be:

Or 1100, where this is said:

The fact that most liberals have chosen to oppose the war on terror and the military does not make it a conservative issue. You and many others have fallen into the trap of believing that anything that is opposed by the left is automatically a conservative position.

As someone said, I failed the intelligence test. I don't understand this.

Are you devoid of common courtesy or did you simply forget to ping me?

As I explained later, most of America’s greatest military successes (think WW2) were when the GOP and the Democrats agreed to unite for America’s good. It would be BEST in the WOT if that happened again, but unfortunately it isn’t. With the exception of Joe Lieberman and Zell Miller, the ‘Rats have chosen to place petty politics and hatreds above America’s interests.

NONE OF THIS changes the fact that until Vietnam, politics was left out of foreign policy because national defense is above politics. The GOP did this with Clinton and it is despicable that the ‘Rats won’t do it now. Conservatives are for a strong defense, but principled liberals should be able to rise above it (like Lieberman and Miller).
