Barry Farber and Ed Koch (yikes!) are both absolutely correct. I've said it before on these boards: All the issues that may divide us as Americans won't mean a damned thing if we don't defeat radical Islam.

Has Bush spent too much on BS? Sure. Has he made mistakes in the war? Yes, he has. However, as long as he wins reelection, America retains a future and a workable destiny. If the skeleton from Massachusetts ends up being President, we may as well start burning every religious text except the Koran.

If Kerry is elected, even if he brings along a Crat Congress, I believe we will still win the war. Kerry will put it on hold, maybe even withdraw from Iraq and Afghanistan, but when the 2nd or 3rd city goes up (I don't see him reacting to losing just, say, central Chicago)even Kerry will fight. But what do we get then? We get a universal draft that will waste tremendous resources trying to force women into 50% of combat slots. We will have a WWII style total takeover of industry that will cripple the economy just as we need it to run full tilt. We will have a radical takeover of medicine and a concomitant radical diminution of health care and we will lose some major military campaigns before we resort finally to nukes and a Kerry will resort to nukes.

It will be infinitely more expensive and damaging to our society and economy if we do it the Liberal-Crat way. Post-war recovery will be infinitely harder than it was after WWII. The liberal voters may prefer destruction of America to fighting back but politicians, even liberal politicians,especially liberal politicians, want to survive. Politicians have major egos and liberals have weak or no belief in anything transcendent. They will not do suicide.

Even understanding that Kerry would ultimately fight and win, the Crat way of war would leave no resources to implement the utopia the liberals must work for.

Bush is their best bet for socialism just as Bush is our best bet for Constitutional government. He works for neither but he will leave the possibilities on the table.

Keep saying it NCPAC...it's true and it's the bottom line.

It will take many years for many to understand, so we have to keep at it relentlessy until the vocal majority overwhelms the elite media and the issue takes center stage for what it is!
