I'm not your typical reactionary that thinks we should get our war on at every little slight. At all. In fact, the last war we got involved in that we had any business being involved in was the one against japan, in my book.
But if you want to make a case for korea, nam, Afghanistan and gulf 1 I'm willing to listen, for sure.

Hell, there's a friggin' carrier group in range, has been for weeks, with all the associated aircraft and methods of converting targets to mulch; if he actually wanted to DO anything he already would have.
But that would make Valerie Jarret and his sympathies for islam sad, so he won't.
Of course not... THAT would upset his base...

Wow, these Isis guys don't really need any dehumanizing to want to go fight them, do they?

I have no knowledge of this rifle!
You will.
But HE did kill Bin laden. Don't believe? Just ask him, he'll tell you so.
ReplyDeleteTime to dust off the Warthogs. There's nothing like a metric shit load of 30mm to make a point.
