Neo-Cons to the Right of Me and Peaceniks to the Left of Me. Where do you stand?


Ever since George W. Bush had his grand opening and dedication of his new Library in Texas, the Neo-Cons have been out in full force trying to find another war where they can trick America into engaging a foreign enemy and a war that no one of them will ever physically participate in.  Reminds me of a bully or manipulator, like Satan, who gets others to fight their battles for them, risking not one hair on their balding scalps.  It’s like not allowing any kind of conflict to go without a war attached to it. 

Then you have the Peaceniks who also are using the revision of the Iraq War found on full spectacle in the George W. Bush Library allowing them to make their point that we all should be making “love not war”.  That if we just stick our heads in the sand and pretend that we are all alone here in this universe; the universe would leave us alone.  In the words of Jesus Christ, both are fools and hypocrites.  So where do you stand? 

Are you solidly in the corner of one or the other or do you stand as I do.  Willing to re-don my military uniform and lead those who follow into the sacred art of bullet dodging but before that try all that I can to sit down, hammer out or come to an agreement which will end bloodshed not add to it.  You decide and when you do stop allowing those from either extremes to dominate your airwaves and TV time.  If they wish to push war but will not be the ones dodging bullets please tell them to shut the hell up and sit down.  If they push evading inclusion into the conversation by just shrinking as little as you can and hope the big bad demon of war pass on by, please tell them to shut the hell up and sit down. 

What we need now is a strategy that takes as much time as we need to make as sure as possible that the only option left is war before we declare it, but once we are pretty confident declare war quickly and take the gloves off of our military so that they do what they do so well and so well trained to do.  Making sure to understand that these same people who are now pushing that we go to war will later find several things wrong with that decision because of who made it and those who say just be quiet and they will pass you by will not be the ones standing there with hat in hand when more embolden enemies emerge because we are now viewed as weak. 

Whichever side you choose to take or if you are like me, choosing only the side of right, you will be known by only one talent.  Your talent to flip-flop when what you proclaimed in the beginning turns out to be false or standing up and admitting that you were wrong if that does become the case.  You see, a true hero is not measured by what he/she does base on ideology but strictly on principle.  In other words any fool can talk the talk but only wise men and women will walk the walk.  Where do you stand?
