Will on Conk War Rhetoric

Pretty fair piece by old George. Says the Republicans can't really claim superiority in the area of defense at this time. Really not much difference between Bush, Obama, Romney etc.
Republicans need more than rhetoric on defense
By George F. Will, Published: February 8
Osama bin Laden and many other “high-value targets” are dead, the drone war is being waged more vigorously than ever, and Guantanamo is still open, so Republicans can hardly say that Obama has implemented dramatic and dangerous discontinuities regarding counterterrorism. Obama says that, even with his proposed cuts, the defense budget would increase at about the rate of inflation through the next decade. Republicans who think America is being endangered by “appeasement” and military parsimony have worked that pedal on their organ quite enough.

Hardly, Z. Each day the world situation evolves so that new thinking must be exercised. Donks have not wavered from the dialogue route....and the world will be more peaceful for it.
And we all realize you guys want Obama to fail because he is black.

Donks -- the only ones on this board to use the "N" word with an apprpriate asterisk pastie or two -- play the race card from the bottom of the deck, again.
