Great letter ............
I especially liked this

...Initially, I was not a George Bush fan. I am not even a Republican. I normally vote Republican, because of my total despise of Communism, Socialism and the far-left in this country. I am a Conservative. However, during his watch, I feel President Bush just happened to stumble upon the leading edge of the greatest threat this country has ever faced. Mistakes have been made, because of the newness of the threat. Overall, the President has done a superb job dealing with the threat, and at the same time held off the constant ranting, raving, deceitful and malicious escapades of the far-left attempting to regain political power. .....

Except I always was a W man.

“To hell with political correctness. The President can’t say this, but I sure can. I smile every morning when I get up and realize that one of our great cities has not been blown away. And, there is zero doubt in my mind that if we pull out of Iraq prematurely, that will happen within a short period of time after our departure.”

Someone has to say it, and who better than someone who knows from first hand experience!!!

Good article but what you have missed is that the Dems do not care what happens to this great nation. They must have already made deals with al-Qaeda for their continued seat in the power wagon and will be surprised when al-Qaeda does not honor their agreement. They cheer when any Americans are killed just like they did during Vietnam they are the scum of the earth and will remain so until the American people wake up and if they do not then our country is gone as it almost is already through the left-wing anti-American fascist who want to destroy our Constitution. Just as I consider anyone who helped the Communist in Vietnam by their anti-war demonstrations to be NAZI I consider the same for those that now support al-Qaeda.

IT IS ABOUT PROTECTING THIS GREAT COUNTRY FROM ALL ENEMIES, BOTH FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC.

It's not just DemoncRATs that are domestic enemies, and it's not just the military forces that need bolstering in this period of open borders.

An outstanding editorial, but, unfortunately, the left will only bury their collective head further into the sand, with their index fingers in their ears, loudly repeating “La...la...la...”.

No, one finger in one ear, and the thumb of the other hand where the sun don’t shine.

In a two year period from 1979 to 1981, there was not one day when more that one-third of my assigned aircraft were flyable. It is amazing the lengths we went to in those days, cannibalizing parts, expending twice the time and energy to fix every little item, and still two-thirds of the birds were always broken because of no spare parts.

Yup, that was my Air Force, too. Over 100 F-111As in the 366th Tactical Figher Wing, and two days before the failed Iran Hostage Rescue mission we deployed every available aircraft to our alternate base in Turkey. We were able to launch 25 aircraft...

This should be posted on every board you all can think of. It is one of the best writings I have seen. Being “Specific” is not very PC but I have reached the point that I don’t care. I don’t care if the world is considered small today.....I think that’s a bunch of bull anyway. We’ve just been convinced that that’s the way it is. We need to care about others but we need to care about our own country first. If we fall, the rest of the world falls with us and it’s not worth it.
