The Middle East sees that, while our warriors are very tough, our politicians are petty, and weak. We have Senators threatening to sue them for not producing enough oil. And then there was our Speaker of the House's incoherent babbling yesterday.
And here we are, sitting atop an ocean of our own oil, not drilling for it. Those who wish to destroy us are motivated by our pettiness and weakness.
Our politicians are petty and weak. And, in many ways, bigger threats than the loons who plot and plan our destruction from afar.
