In the first 6 months? Nah, in the first 24 hours
Abe Greenwald on The Baltic Missile Crisis?
And you think the Russians haven't listened carefully to the video in this post, where Obama essentially promises to unilaterally disarm? That video took me right back to reliving the nuclear freeze movement in 1983. Or they haven't noticed Obama's lack of historical knowledge?
BTW, how about this?
Just like we learned after the 1990's, there can be no holiday from history. ACORN and related thuggery may help you commit domestic voter fraud, raise illegal monies, and win domestic elections but such Alinsky-esque "community organizing" won't help a bit when dealing with real Commie thugs who come from a political lineage which has killed tens of millions of people in their pursuit of power and control.
ADDENDUM
More.
And even more.
Yeah,DUH,the real "commie" thugs are just authoritarians with a stage name and LOTS of hardware and troops-ths Alinskyites are the first ones to get "liquidated" in any commie regime-the proof of the pudding is in Hunagry-when the commies took over they got rid of the leftist intellectuals like sh*t through a goose.The former Arrow Cross fascist paramilitaries got hired by the AVO,the communist paramilitary.
Why?Because they knew how to do "stuff".
OTL-you know this is true.Skills trump ideas.
It's starting to look like Joe Biden's "within six months he'll be tested" scenario is on the fast track.
All of those young Obama-ites may soon learn a life lesson about "being careful about what you wish for."
The problem is, the rest of us are going to have to participate in their lesson.
Jimmy Carter was a feckless Commander in Chief, but not disloyal. GIven Obama's past associations, feckless might be the best case scenario.
God help the United States of America and our brave men and women in uniform.
Posted by: Tom W at November 5, 2008 10:54 PMJimmy Carter was more than feckless.he was a disaster.He is largely responsible for the immigration mess.He seriously mishandled the whole business with the Shah and the resultant jackpot we are embroiled in with Iran.He wasn't any great shakes dealing with the USSR either.For an intelligent man,he was life stupid as President.
