“In a war, you do not fight battles that you are certain to lose...”

Hmm.

I guess he never read nor saw the accounts of the 101 Airborne, Screaming Eagles, for one, who marched into the Bastogne forest, completely surrounded by enemy in the dead of winter with no coats, gloves, ammo, food nor fire, not even a decent company commander, to emerge after one month in the snow, everyone but a few having been dinged or wounded or killed, victorious due to a morale and character of knowing they were on the right side, their mothers would be proud and they were in a state of grace fighting a godless entity.

Sure to lose, bull.

I don’t care if he was a marine, I’d like to know if he joined the band and bowed out or something.

I am a combat veteran and I come from a long line of the same and a big group of fighting obnoxious Irish.

Ted Cruz can get in there and fight for our constitutional rights, as he has done successfully before the supreme court nine times.

Thomas Sowell can’t come close to that.

Ted Cruz is it

And the formerly well respected, in this house, Thomas Sowell can, in the words of that lovely fireman from Long Beach, kiss my Royal Irish A

The fact that Sowell seems to overlook is that the Colonists started a war that they had no conceivable chance to win. But is was for THE GLORIOUS CAUSE that they took on the most powerful military in the history of the world and beat it.

There were dozens of times that the Congress had considered suing King George for peace and giving up, but Washington’s tenacity in the face of certain defeat led to a miraculous and hard fought victory over tyranny.

Sowell and the GOP simply don’t have the stomach for a fight. That is the bottom line. So they are attacking the General who could lead us to victory.
