Quips & Quotes – 7/6/10

image The President and Operational Planning - Time-Based vs. Conditions-Based campaigns! I believe that we can achieve victory on our terms in Afghanistan. All it requires is decisive leadership and strategic patience. If we start leaving in JUL 11 in a Time-Based vice a Conditions-Based approach in any significant manner – mark you calendar. Afghanistan will end in defeat. The second and third order effects of that defeat will be unknown – but our children and grandchildren will curse us for it. Read it all…

He can't resist: Obama bashes Founders on the 4th of July! It appears the President of the United States can't contain his disdain for America's historical roots. On Independence Day, instead of stressing the awesome concepts of the Declaration of Independence, Obama managed to turn a BBQ into an opportunity to disparage our founders, foster class warfare and further division.

Military Insubordination or Administrative Incompetence? ... comes a time when good men have to stand up – …I have not yet read the Rolling Stone article on McChrystal. To listen to the mainstream media, I don’t have to. He’s committed a crime almost as bad as BP. Not quite as bad as racism, but close. In my mind, he’s done what any good commander would do. When pushed, he’s told the truth. We’re in big trouble. American soldiers are dying in Afghanistan and the administration which sends them there doesn’t know, or want to know, how to win.

Socialist slop from Hillary: We Need to Spread the Wealth Around More:
“It’s important, too, that we look at how to promote broadly-based prosperity. One of the problems in societies around the world today is that too much of the productivity of the economies are going to too few. Too few people, the political and economic elite, are realizing the vast majority of benefits from economic activity.
  It’s true in my own country where, unfortunately, economic inequality is increasing. And it’s true in Ukraine. It’s true in Europe and Asia and Africa and South America.
  So part of the challenge of economic growth and prosperity is to make sure it gets down and equally spread among people. And we have to work towards spurring investment and long-term growth in Ukraine. And we have to work together to end corruption in both the public and the private sectors.”

“Feminism is not about choice or pacifism, or the misguided notion that estrogen is anything but an anabolic steroid, and one far stronger than testosterone--which is itself not a monster hormone. It is about equality, and the fact that women are human beings and citizens, with the inalienable right to our lives and the absolute integrity of our bodies. It is about defending that right, not merely legally, but physically and effectively, by any means necessary--including handguns, including concealed carry.” From Elin Solaro  in A Feminist Theory of the Second Amendment and Self-Defense

EUPHEMISM Watch! “There is a lot of talk these days about "state capitalism". What is it? The best definition is perhaps, "a political and economic theory of social organization that advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a whole." In other words, it is textbook socialism. But just as liberals now call themselves progressives, they now call socialism "state capitalism".” -- Erick Ericson
