This has likely been posted before, but it is well worth repeating to keep matters in perspective.

We are doing well in Iraq, and will continue to do so no matter what Propaganda the DIMs and MSM push.

If you want carnage, read about WWI! The battle of Verdun alone the French lost 350,000! I wonder what the RATS would say to that today.

Great article. Bookmarked.

Regarding Janet Reno and the Branch Davidians: That atrocity was an unprovoked Clinton/Reno military strike against religious US civilians (including the torching of innocent children) on our own home soil.

Say what you want about David Koresh and his cult, but consider again the level of force used for the supposed infractions and the resulting outcome.

I still think Waco is one of the darkest moments in US history and one of Clinton's worse sins.

Germany may not have attacked us at Pearl Harbor but they declared war on us immediately thereafter. A better analogy might be that our first counterattack vs. Hitler was in North Africa, clearly not in a direct line with Berlin.
