Save Iraq - Surber smacks em with an AWESOME quote.
Devestating, especially the last part with arguable the 'quote of the year'. Just devastating.The lefty story line is that the Iraqis want us to leave. If only Americans go home, the war will end. They said the same thing about Vietnam. We left. Thousands of people were slaughtered. A million took to the sea to escape and millions more were forced into re-education camps. Then came the killing fields of Cambodia, where Hanois surrogates slaughtered 2 million more people. That was the peace the American left brought to Southeast Asia. They cut off funding. Arabs are not dummies. They know our history. They know the situation. The numbing significance of the statement from Senate Plurality Leader Harry Reid that the war is lost was not lost on the head of the only relief agency in Iraq: In Washington for a series of advocacy meetings in Congress, Said Hakki, the president of the Iraqi Red Crescent, expressed concern that by setting a withdrawal timetable, the U.S. would abandon Iraq at the height of a humanitarian crisis. It is important to remember that Reid voted for this war, when that was popular. Now that it is unpopular, he seeks to shrug it as if it were last years hot new dance craze. Ouch! Yowza! Ah yes, the UNs vaunted humanitarian effort. It made Kofi Annans son rich and kept Jacques Chiracs pockets lined, but it starved thousands of Iraqi children. Pow! Look, it is up to the United States to help Iraq. No one else will. Too much of the political debate in America is focused on old issues WMDs and whether Hussein was a major tyrant or a third-rate dictator. People truly concerned about peace about the fate of the Iraqi people would stop discussing the past and begin working on the future. I find it interesting that the left is so concerned about carbon footprints. What about humanitarian footprints? What sort of tree do you plant as penance for turning your back on 24 million people? Just savor that sentence.Think about it. Wizardry with words. Delicious. Parsimonious. Thoughtful. Niice. It is THE question every Presidential Candidate should be asked. So easy to set up, so devestating to see the bumbling responses of the dhimms. Will the MSM ask? Posted by: Brett 2007-04-24 |
