Texas analogy for Congress

Posted 11 Jan 2007 in Congress, Iraq, military, war

 

Yep, it’s a good thing modern Democrats weren’t at the Alamo…

Senator Ted Kennedy (D-Mass.) makes their position pretty damn clear:

“In Vietnam, the White House grew increasingly obsessed with victory, and increasingly divorced from the will of the people and any rational policy. The Department of Defense kept assuring us that each new escalation in Vietnam would be the last. Instead, each one led only to the next. There was no military solution to that war,” Kennedy said. “Echoes of that disaster are all around us today. Iraq is George Bush’s Vietnam.

Obsessed with victory? WTF? How can you be in a conflict and NOT be obsessed with winning?

Conversely, the Democrats are obsessed with defeat. They’ve been opposing this war as soon as it became politically expedient for them to do so. Kennedy was all for defeat back in 1974 (cutting off funding for the Vietnam War) and he’s pushing for it now as well. It’s sad that he apparently doesn’t remember how that worked out for us.

The name “Defeatocrats” fits them more and more every day.
