I am a disabled veteran. I can no longer remain silent about the following.
Most democrats continue to politicize our national security. During the debates, on Wednesday evening, in Philadelphia, both Clinton and Obama came off as military hawks when it came to Iran and its nuclear capabilities. They would respond forcefully if Iran obtains nuclear weapons and uses them against Israel. "An attack on Israel would incur massive retaliation by the United States," said Clinton. Obama said, "The U.S. would take appropriate action."
They both maintain, with regard to Iraq, the strategy of a massive and expeditious exodus. Those of us that posses a critical ear, know that a large majority of the democrats oppose this war for political reasons only. Reason # 1 is in an effort to appease their constituency. # 2 is to make the Republicans look like warmongers and reason # 3 is to regain the White House. These observations will be interpreted, by some, as right wing radicalism. They shouldn’t be to quick to label us. Did you hear Hillary answer, how she would convince super delegates, why she should get their vote? I did. One of the many reasons given was that she would "take on Al-Qa'ida" . You can see where Im going with this. Just where does she plan to "take them on?" Essentially, we would be taking them on in our own back yard. She cant have it both ways. We either stay in Iraq and finish the job, or, do as the democrats think is politically correct. If we do, we will be inviting Al-Qa'ida right back into the US for round two of terrorism.
