You see, the liberals and Democrats would have all of us believe that this war is unwinnable. They tell the Amercian public, "We cannot win, we must surrender." Withdrawl now IS surrender, because the infant Iraqi government is incapable of defending itself.

The liberals see America as the world's greatest problem. The liberals want us to believe that we will fail and that we must give in to the terrorists of Iraq. The liberals say this because it will help them politically. Because this is all they have left. They have no platform. They have no argument. All they have to offer is American defeat. The Democratic Party, this once great party of Truman, JFK, and Roosevelt, has become irrelevant and stands against America.

Because what is bad for America... Is good for the Democrats.


I am deeply saddened to see you take this road SFTS. But you are a Texan. And an American. And I also know that you are still formulating your view of how our country should be led.


There is NO wrong in questioning our leadership. There is NO wrong in voicing your beliefs. There is NO wrong in making your points heard.

But we must never, ever, ever play to the enemy in order to make gains politically. We must NEVER pursue American failure to promote a political ideology.

And make no mistake: The Liberals want America to fail. If America fails, then the Republican party fails. And if the Republican party fails, then the Democrats will increase their power.

The failure of America is Democratic Party policy when conservatives lead the nation.
Divinus,

You are a rather intellegent fellow, and I respect you. But this last post of yours is shocking and grotesque. I remember when I first wandered, half-drunk, into the backroom, and early on, you encouraged me to really think for myself. (Admittedly, you thought that I could be converted to conservatism by using this method.) Back then, I would actually make a coherent post in the backroom, this being before I became so burnt out on political crap that I just decided to spam at random. Strike still tries to make sense, and care about the issues that come up back here. In fact, he is finally thinking for himself politically, and he is formulating his own political ethos. And now, you try to discourage him from taking his own course of action, and scare him away from individualism. Do you not see what is wrong with that?

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
Then again, if he had started left, and had slid to the right, I would be rooting for whoever tried to scare him back to the left. But still consider what you are doing.
