Potpourri

This priceless line of BS came from the Democratic nominee Barack Obama:

"We are the party of Roosevelt. We are the party of Kennedy. So don't tell me that Democrats won't defend this country. Don't tell me that Democrats won't keep us safe."

This is the equivalent of a modern day Frenchman pushing this line:

"I am a warrior...just like Napolean was."

The very notion that a modern liberal democrat can be as focused and as preemptive on today's national security is laughable at best. Since Obama loves comparisons so much, lets do a few.
1. FDR waged war against Japan and Germany (who posed no direct threat to us by the way...it was just the right thing to do...imagine that). Would today's liberal jump into the fray like that? Remember these are the same liberals that sit back and allowed hundred of thousands of Rwandans to get massacred, simply because the UN wouldn't help.
2. Jack Kennedy, while young, was tenacious when it came to national security. He understood what needed to be done to combat and defeat Soviet Communism. Do you think Jimmy Carter or Barack Obama would have the testicular fortitude to blockade Cuba and dare Krushchev to do something? Go back read some of Kennedy's speeches. "Hawkish" isn't the word. It's enough to make today's liberal, "peace at any price" democrat crawl into a corner, suck their thumb, and probably relieve themselves multiple times.

To sum up: Today's Liberal is more interested in everyone liking us moreso than actually protecting us.
