Why do so many Americans refuse to face the fact that our country is at war with international terrorism?
The leading terrorist group, al-Qaida, is fighting us on the ground in both Iraq and Afghanistan. Both Iran and North Korea are threatening nuclear war. And yet many Americans, including some congressional Democrats, denounce President Bush, and in so doing, weaken our country's ability to resist Islamic fascism. One congressional Democrat, John Conyers of Michigan, announced his intention to impeach the president when Republicans lose control of both houses of Congress. There is something terribly wrong with people seeking to demean and weaken the president in war time, thereby strengthening our country's enemies. As a result of the language and tactics of those opposed to our presence in Iraq, our enemies have been emboldened, believing the American public to be sharply divided on the war and, in fact, at war with itself. To other countries, Americans appear pitted against one another not in an election, but in a verbal bloodbath, convincing the world we are impotent – a paper tiger.
John Conyer of MI :eek: :barf:
Who cares what he thinks not me. :)
