And “foithermore”.....
So Edwards seems to be running exclusively on his West Point record. Fine and dandy; the man went to one of our military academies, and we can all recognize that as an accomplishment. But, in the end, (to quote Hillary Clinton) “what difference does it make?” when:
1. The Obama administration (which Edwards wholeheartedly supports) has seriously reduced the very same military Edwards takes pride in having served in.
2. Our foreign policy is in shambles, our southern border is porous, and “no boots on the ground” in the Middle East powder keg is actually “boots on the ground”.
2. There is much more to defend than the independence, territorial integrity, and interests of the United States. How about adherence to the Constitution, true marriage, (i.e., man and woman), the unborn, and against job-killing environmental extremism? If Edwards cannot defend all that, he must then stop using his military background as a political prop.
It’s nice that he served in the military but that doesn’t make him good governor material. This ad shows that he’s really a sleazy opportunist. If this is all he’s got, then I think Vitter is going to win this thing.
Will never happen; did you see John F. Kerry do that?
