WE ARE WINNING IN IRAQ!

Newsflash for all you slow thinkers out there: we are winning in Iraq. Our presence alone in Iraq, and in Afghanistan, denies the terrorists a safe staging ground for their activities. Our presence alone in Iraq, and in Afghanistan, denies the terrorists a safe haven to run to, to retreat to, after sorties against us. Our presence alone in IRAQ, and in AFGHANISTAN, denies the terrorists free access to weapons, money, troops, and support, and that, my slow-thinking friends, is why they and their fifth columnists here in America and elsewhere are working so hard to get us OUT OF IRAQ AND AFGHANISTAN.

It’s because we’re winning, just by being there. Like the dog in the manger, our presence alone keeps them out.

You have to learn to think logically and realistically to figure out what’s really going on. You can’t trust the press – you should have learned that by now. We all know the liberal press is too wrapped up in their agenda, that is to crucify George W. Bush and steamroller the Republican party, to bother giving us the straight story on anything.

The terrorists have made it perfectly clear that they want us OUT of Iraq and Afghanistan. They’re getting plenty of support from liberals here at home. So the terrorists and their buddies – apparently including large numbers of elected Democrats – want us out of Iraq and Afghanistan. To any person with average or above intelligence, this should be a strong signal that we should stay where? In Iraq and Afghanistan. If it ain’t working for the terrorists, it must be working for us, right? Right.

Then there is always past history to go by. Remember the old moral: those who fail to learn the lessons of history are doomed to repeat them. In Korea, we cut and run at the 38th Parallel [Didn’t want to make too many people mad, so MacArthur was told to stop there] leaving North and South Korea –which led directly to the VietNam War, where we cut and run, leaving our allies to be butchered in the American Compound as we helicoptered the last few out. And now we’re dealing with Iraq and Afghanistan, which can be traced back to that debacle where America lost what standing we had in the world with our lost honor, because you can’t cut and run and take your honor with you. Honor doesn’t “cut and run.”

The terrorists knew they could get away with whatever they chose to do because they saw that we’d always caved in, cut and run, and that we’d never held anybody accountable for years. We allowed our friends and our enemies to extort money from us; we tried to buy everybody off; we blustered and beg and whined. Right up until the day George W. Bush said, “You’re either for us or against us, and we’re coming after you if you’re against us,” and then he did it. We did it.

And now the Democrats, and the terrorists, want us to “cut and run” again. No. Never again. We, the people of this country, want you who represent us to clearly understand that we are true blue, and we won’t stain. You’d better not, either. To paraphrase John Paul Jones, “Damn the terrorists and their friends, full speed ahead!”

We’re winning in Iraq and Afghanistan. We’re winning! As long as we’re there, the terrorists cannot use Iraq and Afghanistan for safe havens and staging grounds for attacks against us, so we’re defeating them and their goals for those countries. We’re there for the long haul, but no matter how you spin it, we’re winning in Iraq!
