If anothe USS Cole happened next year....

Obama as President? Meet with Islamic leaders and do nothing to defeat our enemy.

Yes, I see. It would be like letting the Chinese steal and strip a Navy electronic warfare aircraft and then playing buddy with the ChiComs.

Oh, wait...

I’m talking about winning a war. If we can support the Soviet Union to win a war against the Nazis, why can’t we vote for McCain to do the same against IslamoNazis?

Yeah, supporting the Sovs turned out so well for us. After we supported them they starting pointing nuclear weapons at us and held us hostage for 40 years. They encouraged the Chicoms to invade Korea, supplied arms to Vietnam, Nicaragua and Cuba.

The moral is: Don't sacrifice your principles for theoretical short-term gains. It will come back to bite you.

Yep, better to lose WWII than to have anything to do with the Soviets. Better to win the factual war than to refuse to win because you may be enemies with that country later.

We would not have won WWII without the Soviets chewing up Nazi’s on the “Eastern Front.”
