Is the War on Terror coming to an end now that the surge appears to be working? Hardly. This will be a war of attrition. The jihadis are banking on the press and the liberal factions to wear down Americans and destroy our will to fight.
Face it, the libs have done a fine job of turning this from a nation of resolve who persevered against the forces of evil in WWII to a bunch of nancy boys who have nothing to think about but their next manicure appointment.
So what will it take? What kind of leader do we need? The man pictured above had a take no prisoners approach (literally by some accounts). A man with such contempt for his enemy that he "pissed in the Rhine" on his way across that river (pictured).
Are there any George Pattons today? If there are, God help them. He would be considered a dinosaur. This is a kinder, gentler USA. Gen. Patton's methods would never be tolerated today. In fact, even then the liberal press stirred up a great deal of trouble over his slapping two soldiers he considered goldbrickers.
I worry about the future of this country when I think about these things. For a Hillary Rodham or Barack Hussein Obama to be put in charge of our armed forces would be a huge and drastic mistake.
I hope the American people will take this into account when deciding on a Commander in Chief this November.
God bless....
