Well, it is a difficult thing to swallow, but a potentially constructive opportunity for America. What is this comment? What is the title about? As a federalist, patriotic military son, I have a deep rooted love and belief in America. She is who she is because of nearly 300 years of the birthing, formulating and enacting of the idea that Liberty is for all, Government should be limited and because of this we can be strong. Thus, when the President bows to a foreign leader, talks trash on America or is absent in world politics and hyper-sensitive situations; frustration set in...heavily.
Naturally an article spotlighting the French tends to make my blood ... at least heat up... Further, to read a comment from Pres. Sec. Gates making us look like we (even a world collective, with us "at the helm") do not have it all together...oh, ok, now my blood begins to boil. Here is the comment:
"[T]his command and control business is complicated. We haven't done something like this, kind of on the fly before. And so it's not surprising to me that it would take a few days to get it all sorted out."
Yes, the French shooting a plane down and not our boys does create frustration. However, in consideration of the event...maybe it is not all that bad for another country, especially one not known for military prowess, to step out and "man up." Having a list of countries supporting the no-fly is good too.
But what is the over-arching plan here? Is this simply an "oil-thing?" If so, Mr. President, why not give your speech to America that you delivered in Venezuela! Seriously! Why can they drill, deposit an "oil container" in the gulf...and not us? We are the most environmentally conscience country out there by the very nature of how we protect land, but we are burdened with EPA regulation and contraptions that hinder growth! Why should a country like Venezuela be energy independent and not the US? This is crazy. Mr. President you are so out of touch, so manipulated by forces you may not even know - and are acting in a damaging way.
Conclusion: Mr. President, you need a plan. Listen to some of the common sense right, logical right, level-headed right. Not the Rhinos, but true American conservative, fiscally responsible, small government individuals. Act within the limits and guide of the Constitution of the United States of America. Be bold. Be confident.
