[Paul Ross]

The Cold War is not over.

Agreed.

But the people who let the Communists back off of the mat where they had been pinned (from both parties)...aren't admitting it...or doing anything to defend us in it...they still arbitrarily have the strategic U.S. Defense procurement Holiday still going full tilt...

If they admit that the threat of tyranny has returned...their entire foreign policy record is disgraced...and they aren't "adult" enough to acknowledge it.

"If they admit that the threat of tyranny has returned...their entire foreign policy record is disgraced...and they aren't "adult" enough to acknowledge it."

They aren’t competent enough to understand the real threat, plus the only thing politicians are concerned about is winning the next election. Most people are only focused on the Middle East threats. The US can't handle another enemy politically, because we made it a "Global" War on Terror. This is exactly why we should have never asked for other countries consent in attacking Iraq. Russia will be able to do whatever it wants without pressure from any other country. Russia has a lot of leverage right now. Once Russia completely gags its media, watch out.
