"War looms on the horizon , and the electorate knows it. Who would want an appeasement oriented Congress along with an appeasement POTUS in 2008?

It would take a profound idiot to ignore the parallels our present international situation has to the pre WWII years in Europe."

You should check out the MSM a little more often. War isn't looming, it's been here for a few years now. That, the electorate is well aware of. (unlike you) Also, it's the alleged 'parallels' with pre WWII years in Europe argument that got us into Iraq in the first place. In 2006, the parallel that's emerging more closely resembles Vietnam. The GOP is still in control and probably will remain so in Nov. But with MORE not less troops going into a country that was already supposed to be pacified (according to the neo-cons and hawks of 2003) the present course of events suggest Lieberman's loss marks a turning point with the fence-sitters who actually decide where an (honest) election goes. At present course and speed Iraq could be the ice-berg of the GOP Titanic in 2008.

Certainly I am aware of that. But it has not been a total war. I suppose I should say total war instead of war. We have what many might call a recreational war, which the democrats think is an optional war. We both disagree with that.

I believe that we are only in the outer shell of what is to come, for an Iran with nuclear weapons will redefine the war by necessity. Its only a matter of time before N. Korea, China or Russia provide nuclear arms to Iran, if that has not already happened.

You assume that I am not aware, when in fact my focus is on the nature of the parallels we currently are experiencing to the beginning rise of fascism in Europe. We now have fascism of an Islamic nature and our nation is largely unaware of the parallels. OUr anti-fascist movement is in its nascent stages.

There can be no negotiation with Islamofascists. But we must go through the motions I suppose. Total war is looming on the horizen. We are fortunate to have interdicted this rise, for we waited until too late prior to WWII. Now the task is to prepare for total war, for it is undoubtly at hand.And we must act as our forefathers did.

The Democrats are dinosaurs, and the sooner we begin their riducule and destruction as a party, instead of RINOizing, the better prepared we will be for the very difficult time we are about to face for 20 or 30 years.

Of this I am very much aware. And having lost friends and neighbors in the present conflict, I am also very aware of our present war, contrary to your statement concerning what my awareness is, an interesting leap in rather prejudicial self serving logic from one who knows me not. Insecure are we?

Denigrating one who is anallie is one of the frequent obstacles that we have here on FR. It comes from an assumption of false superiority in terms of knowledge and expewrience. If we are to prevail in the years to come, such comments are hardly contributive or positive in the work we must do together.
