It says we are gutless, but not to worry, as the self-righteous and ever-irritating Sean Vanity would say, "let not your heart be troubled."
As Mort Kondracke would say, "The shotgun wedding........... the Republican President and Democrat Congress" will take care of everything. (sarcasm off)
I was on another thread where someone was stating to me that America is anti-war. At first I took the stance that we are reluctantly pro-war. Then I began to think to myself of all the wars and conflicts (public and secret) that America has been involved in from the Revolutionary War up to present day Iraq/Afghanistan. Now I've come to the conclusion that we are actually quite pro-war.
However, maybe it is possible that beginning with the 90's, after our large military build up and the end of the Cold War, that Dems and MSM have successfully made us feel ashamed of our conflict ridden past. While secretly deep within the American mind we still desire the victory. That would explain the 'resurgance' in patriotism after 9/11 and our desire to eradicate the enemy which liberals quickly even within the month tried to make us feel guilty for.
I've quite decided that we are not a peaceful nation that avoids conflict. Our history as a nation just doesn't lend credence to that notion. We just need to not let Dems try to shame us for it. XD
Ok let me clarify how my post related to what you said.
We'll stop being gutless after we stop letting the libs shame us for our desire to find and kill the enemy wherever they are. They are always trying to make us feel bad for that which is why we are pussyfooting around too much.
Be assured my heart is VERY troubled.
