Let's applaud their empty talk, and make damned sure they don't take any more action.<br /><br />The Democrats did change entirely on national defense during Vietnam. Until then, they were as strong on national defense as the Republicans (and perhaps stronger). Kennedy got the Bay of Pigs wrong, but he learned. When the real crisis came, he was up to it. Can you imagine Obama during the missile crisis standing up to the Soviet Union risking a possible global nuclear war in order to avoid it becoming an inevitability after IRBM's were installed in Cuba?LawHawkRFDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17800255923675295515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-84123378058551395182010-03-09T21:55:17.955-05:002010-03-09T21:55:17.955-05:00Stan, Thanks, glad you liked it.

And I don't think the public is in a believing mood anymore.<br /><br />Back when there was only one media that spoke with one voice, people might have accepted it -- or at least not realized that they weren't alone. But not these days. There are just too many ways for too many people to share their views for any sort of new Democratic make-over to work.AndrewPricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11312364467936820986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-49398239951168534302010-03-09T21:38:53.157-05:002010-03-09T21:38:53.157-05:00Good read Andrew.

Democrats words mean nothing, oh hell!…that goes for most politicians in Washington what’s important is their agenda, and there in lies the danger.<br /><br />As far as talking tough for a modern Democrat is laughable, in fact that what be a good retort…to point and laugh. You remember in 2000 Owlgore hired Naomi Wolf, to help him with his manliness, and be less wooden…fat chance right. John Kerry was going duck hunting somewhere, he went into a country store to get his temporary hunting license, and for the people in the store, and everyone watching, it was like he laid out a giant fart…pardon! Duck out of water doesn’t begin to describe the moment. The word “metrosexual” is a liberal phrase to mask their feminine tendencies, in an attempt to further castrate the American man. Any kind of credibility in defense for Democrats died in the jungles of Vietnam.StanHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07395708786509590321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-88468025196407892482010-03-09T20:04:22.729-05:002010-03-09T20:04:22.729-05:00Thanks Writer X!

They've been too weak on national defense for too long for people to believe it if they suddenly start using nastier language about the bad guys -- especially when they then turn around and start talking about the bad guy's rights.<br /><br />It's too bad they won't wake up and realize that they need to change.AndrewPricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11312364467936820986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-52096375937964409942010-03-09T19:33:37.058-05:002010-03-09T19:33:37.058-05:00Tough Talk for Dummies 101?

I read an article today that Congress's approval rating has climbed to a whopping 8%! Raises and champagne for everyone! Actions always speak louder than words. You'd think they'd have figured that out already. <br /><br />Great post, Andrew!Writer Xhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16505411188186283813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-9466497361808615672010-03-09T18:39:30.694-05:002010-03-09T18:39:30.694-05:00Jed, I remember that.

I think you're right, it seems that on issue after issue they think that all they need to do is use the right words and people will forget everything they've done and ignore everything they keep threatening to do, and somehow fall for the soothing tones of their voices.<br /><br />It's like they really do think we're too stupid to notice.<br /><br />And I think you're right that the internet and places like Fox News have made it that much harder for them to get away with saying one thing and then doing another.AndrewPricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11312364467936820986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-28254739319768942462010-03-09T18:14:00.110-05:002010-03-09T18:14:00.110-05:00Andrew, it seems to have always been thus with the...Andrew, it seems to have always been thus with the Democrats. I remember in 2004 when they were trying to come up with a line of balogna that could woo religious people. Yeah sure . . . I think they either are terminally self-centered or realize how full of crap they are and hope spin will cover up what they are really about. That may have worked back in the days when liberals controlled all media outlets, but no longer. There are too many outlets to show them for what they really are. That and the fact most people are smarter than politicians think they are.Tennessee Jedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10604275115906776992noreply@blogger.com
