It seems that the Democrats are siding with the average American when it comes to what to do with Osama Bin Laden and Al-qaeda. The will of the people is to take action and get rid of Osama and Al-qaeda where ever they are. Democrats such as Barak Obama and Hilary Clinton have been catering to the crowd by making statements such as “If you have a target like Osama you take him out” said by Obama or “OK we gotta go get Al-qaeda” said by Hilary. Great, I’m glad they want what I want, even better they want what Bush wants. The main goal on Bush’s war on terror is to rid the world of Osama and Al-qaeda. Truth be told that is more of a dream than a possibility, it’s just not gonna happen; but they can be slowed down and shrunk, both beneficial goals.
Now don’t get too excited that I sound as if I am siding with the Democrats here. Let’s get the whole picture here. Let’s see the truth behind the stance of people like Obama, Hilary and others. Yes they want Osama and Al-qaeda caught and/or eliminated like most Americans want, but where is the how? How do we do it? How do we capture Osama if he is believed to be hiding in the mountains of Pakistan? How do we capture him when the Pakistani Gov’t has not allowed the US military to cross the Afghan border into Pakistan? Do we invade Pakistan? Do we bomb the hell out of those mountains regardless of who we hit? Please, someone tell me how do we solve this problem. The Democrats seem to have the passion to want what the people want, but lack the solutions as to how to do it, or do they? Think about it, the reality is that the only way to succeed in giving the American people what they want, to go after and take out Osama and Al-qaeda, is to do everything Bush did in Iraq. We will have to send a small army (because we don’t have the man power according to many) to invade Pakistan (repeat history anyone, I thought invading was a bad thing) against the Pakistani Gov’ts wishes (be arrogant and ignore the international laws?) and pound the hell out of those mountain (more “collateral damage”) till they give up. Did I miss anything?
Let’s face it, the Democrats (and Republicans, they are no saints either) are all words and zero actions. Right now they are more concerned with passing legislation to make radio talk shows more balanced and making illegal immigrants legal in 24 hours ignoring those who have waited for years and have endured the painful and expensive process to become legal immigrants the legal way; issues I find hard to believe the average American is insisting must be taken care of. Well actually, let’s give them the benefit of the doubt that they are taking a bit of action. The Democratic Presidential Candidates all agree we need to bring our troops home, most before the end of the year. But wait, doesn’t this contradict the idea of “If you have a target like Osama you take him out” and “OK we gotta go get Al-qaeda”? How do we “take out Osama” or “go get Al-qaeda” when our soldiers are going home? How do we fight terror when we want our soldier’s home? How will our soldiers feel knowing they left the Iraqi people to die at the hands of these militants and insurgents and even Al-qaeda?
We have become a nation of cowards, a nation of ignorant people, a nation of teenagers who want Daddy Gov’ts money and for Daddy Gov’t to pay our bills but don’t want Daddy Gov’t to invade our privacy; even if it’s for our own safety and security. We have become a nation who cannot commit and does not know how to finish what we started.
It seems that my articles are always full of questions; and chances are the replies will either be filled with answers from the opposite side or a bunch of excuses, insults and out of topic answers from the main party in question. The Democrats seem to wanna side with (a line from Col gene) “the vast majority of Americans” on todayis issues but always leave me with a lot of questions as to how they plan on taking care of the issues. Anyone can point out a problem; the trick is to have a solution. For now I would rather go with a party that has solution, even if not so good ones, than a party who only acknowledges the problem but lacks solutions.
What say yee(spelling?)?
