The principle of holding the current position at all costs until reinforcements arrive - as opposed to deserting your posts or surrendering to the enemy.

Say Jim, thanks for the discussion. I'm looking forward to seeing you Mama Bear and the rest of the Fresno Freepers on the 12th. Take care.

I understand where you're coming from. I'm just very frustrated these days.

What principle are you adhering to by voting for whoever the GOP trots out just because they aren't democrats? Whatever it is, I don't understand that one either.

But if there are no 'reinforcements' in the forseeable future? -- Is it not better to make a strategic retreat, hunker down in your FR bunker, build up new allies and fight on another day?

Allright, I see what you're saying. Don't frag the LT, right?

Nice military analogy, sir. Squared away.

HOOAH!

Jim, is a there a point at which sliding to the left can no longer be defined as "holding the current position"? If so, doesn't reaching this point require a redefining of just who or what the "enemy" really is?
