Recently President Obama announced the end of combat operations in Iraq in only his second oval office address. In doing so, he reluctantly acknowledged Bush's patriotism and that there were "disagreements" between them. Then, he took credit for ending combat operations in Iraq "as he had promised".
Regardless of the President having congratulated himself for the accomplishment, we all know, he does not deserve it. Who can forget that years of incredibly brutal warfare in Iraq, were made agonizingly worse for our soldiers by Obama and the rest of his cronies doing everything they could to defeat the effort. From John “our soldiers are cold blooded killers” Murtha, to Harry “the war is lost” Reid, to Nancy, denying the MRAP to our troops, Pelosi; to Erick "the detainees are victims" Holder; to the New York "the CIA are torturers" Times, to the ACLU the military tribunals are illegal, to Code "Bush and Cheney are war criminals" Pink, To Kieth "Bush lied people died" Oberman, to Everybody all together now: "the surge won't work", and in a thousand other ways, liberals relentlessly tried to defeat us in Iraq.
This is not the first time liberals have tried to defeat the US in war. The pattern is becoming all too familiar. Liberals relentlessly tried to stop the Korean War. They eventually caused a stalemate that allowed North Korea to survive. Sixty years later, its now nuclear and is one of the most repressive and destabilizing regimes on earth. Liberals caused us to pull out of Viet Nam on the verge of victory and then refused even monetary or military supplies to the South, resulting in a slaughter and dislocation of millions. Our embassy was attacked and employees with diplomatic immunity held hostage by Iranian radicals; an indisputable act of war. Liberals refused to fight. Thirty years later a, soon to be nuclear, Iran is a major source of world terrorism and threat to world peace. Liberals relentlessly fought Regan's military build up that ended the cold war. This time,they pulled all of the familiar efforts to defeat the US in Iraq and a bunch of new ones, but lost. Sorry liberals. Nice try but we won this one in spite of you.
If we had not gone into Iraq, what would the situation be today? You know the answer. Iraq would be on the verge of going nuclear like Iran, and it would be exporting terror around the world. Terror would be king and we would be on the run instead of the opposite. Liberals would be saying what can we do about it? A recent poll shows 58% of Ameicans think the Iraq invasion was the right decision in spite of the massive media campaign to villify Bush and Cheney.
The returning troops, all who served in Iraq and George Bush should have a victory parade down Pennsylvania Avenue. Hundreds of thousands if not millions would be lining the streets to cheer their heros. And, since he’s so good at apologizing for the American people, Obama could then and there apologize to the American people for himself and his fellow Democratic Party leaders, for their vitriolic campaign against anyone who in any way supported the war, for almost defeating the US in Iraq and for always doing whatever they can to make the world a much more dangerous place for Americans.
