End the cowboy diplomacy
On Day One ^ | 11/9/2007 | Joe Wilson

End the cowboy diplomacy. The next President needs to begin their term by restoring American credibility and American political and moral authority around the globe by reaching out to the rest of the world.

I really think that we need to take part in this conversation. This site is run by the UN and I think its important that we ensure that the conversation is balanced and that there is at least a measurable amount of a conservative/realist perspective presence.

“The next President needs to begin their term by restoring American credibility”

It’s so funny how liberals think we’ve lost credibility with the world when in truth, it’s the other way around.

Excuse me:

As an old New Mexico cowboy, why is this term not something to be damn proud of?

It Joe Wilson. Why anyone would pay any attention to a know liar who’s public posturing about Iraq is 100% at odds to what he reported to the CIA when he was on the Govt’s payroll is a mystery to any thinking rational being.

Sorry, we don’t waste any time here at Freeper on Leftist clowns who have been willing to be extreme liars just to cater to the political bigotries of the Leftist US Media Establishment.

I agree.

Cowboy diplomacy versus what?

Limp-wristed diplomacy?

I'll take cowboy diplomacy over a purse-swinging enemy-pleasing metro-sexual diplomacy any day of the week.

The next President needs to increase the size of the Military and go more on the offensive to destroy our enemies. I do not care what the rest of the world thinks if they want live under the yoke of radical Islam as slaves or converts then they will become enemies also.

I’d rather see the Cowboys in the Super Bowl than any team from New York.

Every now and again you say something I agree with, and this is one of those times. Every time it happens I feel like playing the lottery. lol
