Contrary to what "BO" and Hillary may think, we do in fact have being perpetrated against America today, a war. A war that has been ongoing and without any serious retaliation, except at the hands of Republican presidents, for decades and originating from one particular area on our globe. Furthermore, it is a war essentially created through the shear ineptitude and idiocy of a particular Democrat president whose willful inaction regarding a long standing ally of America and the effectively ushering in of the founder of the same Islamic Revolution that we’re facing today. This action alone resulted in the bringing about of a crisis that amounted to being the first shot fired in this continuing war. So it was then that this very same Democrat President essentially assisted in the lighting of the fuse igniting this war we are being forced to fight todayand must win. Compounding that initial ineptitude and unbelievable ignorance, there followed yet another boob of the same political persuasion whose inaction did nothing but exacerbate the situation, causing a needless loss of innocent lives. Culminating this outrageous chain of events and continuing a Democrat tradition of a willful disregard of a president's primary duty to protect the citizens of this country, we have today yet another Democrat President who now chooses to dictate that there is now no actual "War on Terror" that what in fact we now have is nothing more than a "Overseas Contingency Operation." What he is effectively doing is nothing short of raising the white flag of surrender. Now doesn’t that just give you a warm fuzzy feeling all over?
Now, the point of origin for this war, or this Overseas Contingency Operation, of which I speak, is a specific area of the World that since it came into being has, thus far at least, created not one invention or made one discovery in science nor made one contribution to medicine or philosophy. Among this group of gifted people, these heirs to one of the World’s civilizations, hardly a single individual who springs forth from this hotbed of violence in the World, has earned any kind of international reputation except to be as a beneficiary of "his" country’s politics or his country’s oil extraction. Or, as a world renown leader of a terrorist organization. Those residing in this particular area of our World are simply unable to accept the fact that Westernization and not a return to the 7th Century is the only way out of their continual failure, backwardness and humiliation and and can assist them with their inability to at least make some progress toward entrance into the 21st century. Unfortunately, what they see instead, at least those in power, is Westernization, especially the "Great Satan", as the root cause of all their problems, to the degree that it must be destroyed so that they can then resurrect their World as it existed in their beloved Seventh Century. Dare we consider the fact that had they not been provided with the gift of oil, they may have had the initiative to progress just a little farther than the point in time in which they seem to stuck.
Again, as "BO" and Hillary now refuse to call what it is in fact that this country is involved in as a War on Terror, the evidence available that it can be identified as nothing else than a war is basically irrefutable. Yet they now advocate returning to a philosophy of dealing with these mindless terrorists that has been proven time and again over the course of 30 years to be completely ineffective. We are engaged in a battle, a battle that we quite simply cannot afford to lose. Returning to the failed policies of the past does nothing but to help ensure victory for those who are currently trying to kill us. So, the question remains, do "BO" and the Democrats want us to in fact prevail in this battle for our very survival? As that old saying goes, "Actions speak louder than words", and the actions of "BO" and the Democrats speak volumes. What follows is a very interesting timeline that shows in stark contrast American responses to terrorist acts when there is a Republican in the White House compared to when there is a Democrat residing there:
September 1978: The Islamic Revolution begins in the Iranian city of Qom.
American response: Nothing
December 1978: President Jimmy Carter states America will not get directly involved to support the Shah of Iran, an American ally.

American response: Nothing
November 4, 1979: Iranian "students" take sixty-six hostages at the U.S. embassy in Tehran, holding most of them for 444 days.

January 2009: Barry Almighty sworn in as President, swearing to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America
The War on Terror is proclaimed to be at an end, replaced by an "Overseas Contingency Operation"
Does anyone besides me see any kind of a trend developing here? Looking back at the incompetent boobs that were then Presidents Carter and Clinton, we now find ourselves with yet another incompetent president assisted by a just as incompetent and inept Secretary of State doing their absolute best to perpetuate those very same failed Democrat policies of the past. If it had not been for the ineptitude of the Carter/Clinton dynamic duo, I think it is fairly safe to say that 9/11 may in all likelihood never have taken place. And we are now with "BO" doing his presidential best to create just such an environment making it possible for yet another attack on this country. It should by now be obvious even to your average "BO" supporting moron that the policies of appeasement and pacifism do not put the least bit of fear into the hearts of those who are trying to end our way of life. You cannot do, as "BO" did, go out onto the World stage as the President of the United States, representing the citizens of this country, and bow before a King of a country that is nothing more than a purveyor of vile hatred against our country. It is force, superior and overwhelming force, that is what it is going to take to put these fanatical, maniacal religious zealots where they belong, PLANTED FIRMLY IN THE GROUND!
