I watched John Fund on Fox Sunday.
I could slap this guy silly.
Him and all the other armchair quarterbacks who know pretty much nothing.
Over and over..."we need more troops". It's a mantra and I don't think the pundits have a clue what they're talking about.
Now I DID see Gates, new SecDef, as he interviewed some grunts on the ground. They did say they needed more troops but hey, at least someone bothered to ask them. John Fund is a McCain supporter and he's just repeating talking points so far as I'm concerned.
If we need more troops on the ground, then so be it. I'm skeptical. I truly believe, silly me, that Rumsfeld knew what he was doing, the guy led two sucessful campaigns in Afghanistan and Iraq. If more troops were needed I believe Rumsfeld would have sent them in.
I really despise know-nothings who repeat a given mantra over and over and I have NO trust in their judgement. I speak specifically of wimpy John Fund but there are plenty more.
Frankly, at this point, I don't know who to trust. The leadership of this country is simply NOT leading.
Easy. Trust yourself. I know of no pundit or Democrat who has a better understanding of what is really going on, or what the problems are that we face, than good old Freeper conservatives. The left uses polls to justify their past distain for defending America and the media is collectively knee jerking over those people who would pull out of our committment to freedom and democracy in Iraq or around the world. All these people can turn on a dime, supporting or opposing either side based on whatever poll is current.
I don't know about you or other freepers, but John Fund is an 8 on a 0-10 weenie scale, and Lowry is right behind at 7. I never knew we had so many metrosexual girlie men in the Republican Party before these last two years. It is one thing to be polite and nice, and unbelievably civil under trying situations with the DBM and Rats, but they are just wimpy. It is obvious that they were never in the Military, and I would assign them 6 weeks of Boot Camp, or two months living in Barracks with real men so that manliness can possibly rub off. Almost anything is better than the feminine Hell/Prison they have put themselves in.
