How To Lose A War: The Sequel (Ollie North)

GOP USA ^ | 11-18-05 | Oliver North

[FairOpinion]

You may want to ping your Iraq ping list -- it breaks your heart how dedicated our troops are and what traitors the MSM and Dems are.

"This sudden loss of assurance in our fighting forces has nothing to do with casualty figures, troop levels, the leaders prosecuting the war in the field or new acts of terror by a ruthless enemy. Rather, the anxieties I'm now hearing from those I have covered in combat come in questions like: "Do you think that they are going to pull us out before we've finished the mission?" and "Will we abandon Iraq like we abandoned Vietnam?" Interestingly, not one of the thousands of young Americans I have covered in Iraq or Afghanistan has ever asked about or commented upon pre-war intelligence. "

WE WILL NOT REWRITE HISTORY & WE WILL NOT REPEAT HISTORY!

 

We have to make this a battle cry

Thanks to the anti-American propaganda from leftists in this country, I bet the enlistment and reenlistment of soldiers drops dramatically.

Military effectiveness will go to hell and who will the voters blame? Remember, 49% voted for Kerry. That means 49% do not care!

The current strategy of cordon, clear, hold with Iraqi forces is a formula for success.

It makes perfect sense when seen in the context of 90% of the Iraqi provinces being calm.

That prospect of an elected government and a military success is really troubling some people. They don't want us to get there. That will ensure conservative domination for years. Therefore, they need to pull out all stops to prevent it. If they can't, they'll pull out all stops to redefine it.

It is more important than Medicare, the next Supreme Court justice, foreign trade deals or tax reform. If we lose the war -- and we could -- none of these things will matter.

Try to explain that to a liberal. He won't agree because he won't get it. The matter between his ears is NOT gray....

And if they succeed, we will need to go to ground because WWIII will be brought to our front doors in Anytown, USA.

Those people are insane if they believe otherwise.

I hope all you fun loving folks that thought that bashing Bush over Meirs, the length of the White house grass, and other equally important things was wise, now realize that our enemies will use everything and anything to destroy the President, EVEN IF IT MEANS SACRIFICING OUR TROOPS AND LOSING THE WAR If the Rats get Bush, we wish for the 9/11 days.

They don't want Iraq to become stabilized and become a democracy that might actually allie with us in the future. So many of them by their speaches show how deeply ill-informed they are. Few probably spend any time in an effort to actually become well informed. Their words give them away. Those Islamofacists are waiting patiently. They laught as they see how they are going to win in the end, just identically as North Vietnam did back when. And the powers that be that own these L/MSMs see they are the ones that have won the battle. They have with their craft carefully molded the outcome which is apparently is unfolding before or eyes over the past year and a half.
Clearly the POTUS must break with tradition and start giving such forcefull increminating speaches, well crafted so that even the dummest Americans wakes up and says..........Oh my God...........now I see what he is trying to say. Or the gig is up.

To me this is the beginning of deja vu all over again, as Yogi Berra would say.Except when he said it,it was funny

Not this time.

I was going to college on the GI Bill,after returning from Vietnam,when the Democrats cut off funding to our war effort then.

It wasn't the military that lost that war, it was the Democrat Party.

The President,the miltary and still some Republicans are steadfast today.All of us have to support them and not let them down.

I know you will,xzins, but I just had to rant a little bit.

[ImpBill]

"Republicans need to realize that wining the war in Iraq is the only issue that really matters right now."

Col. North is exactly right.

Unfortunately many of our GOP leaders... office holders are only interested in matching, with different verbage, the Democrat position in an election year.

I am through with the bastards.

[faithincowboys]

I really wish the Bush Administration had a maverick thinker who could find new ways to reach the American people. They coasted so long-- some people thay can't reach anymore.

[smoothsailing]

See my post #12,Uncle.It's always a pleasure to share a thread with you, my FRiend.

[Humidston]

I am through with the bastards.

Agreed. Maybe it's time for another March for Justice???

[ImpBill]

Actually, and I mean this quite seriously, it is time for more hours on the Golf Course. I stink at it, but don't get nearly as frustrated pinning my hopes on a hopeless political party ... machine.

[smoothsailing]

You're right,Ronnie.The K twins,Teddy&Johnny

I started college, too, in 1974, the year Nixon resigned and the final year in Vietnam. I had just gotten out of the army on my first ets in order to do college and seminary.

It was such a demoralizing time. I remember the news showing helicopters laden with people fleeing. Then the curtain fell. Then there were sporadic reports of the mass murders, boat people, and inability for the hypocrites to report on the events. (No free press at that time and place.)

I hate our socialist MSM and our socialist politicians. From my guts, I despise them, detest them, wish them the worst. May they be accursed. Hell is too good for them.

It's hard to know what the right thing is.

Once you know what's right, …it's hard not to do it."

(Ben Kingsley in The Confession)

Now is the time. This is the issue. This is the fight. We must stand up to these bastards and take it to them. The traitors in our midst must be driven off the stage and the jihadis must be eliminated from the gene pool.
