Bill Clinton and Dems can’t wait to get spending the “peace dividend”. Dems seem to view the military as the armed wing of the Peace Corps.

In post #76 virulent venereal…

…provides a prime example of what I refer to as the “blame Democrats” syndrome…

…the right wing idiocracy never miss an opportunity to point the finger of blame for any and everything wrong in this country at Democrats…

…but especially the “weakened” military canard…

…what virulent venereal won’t explain to us is how/why its gods Bushiva and L’il Dick…

…KNOWING they were attacking a toothless tiger (Saddam/Iraq) RUSHED in with as Rummy says, “…the Army you (they) have”…

…if the military was SO depleted by Clinton:

1) What was the rush to war in Iraq (OR Afghanistan)?

Bushiva had been in office long enough to bolster the military, and could have waited before invading to up-armor the humvees and provide the proper body armor…

…but he/they didn’t…

2) and it (virulent venereal) won’t explain how Clinton’s depleted military wrapped up Saddam and made it to Baghdad in RECORD time, with (then) minimal casualties…

…while almost simultaneously dismantling the Taliban in Afghanistan…

…now how’d that happen if Clinton depleted the military so badly…

…as the right wingers are so fond of pointing out?

It’s Bushiva, L’il Dick and the right wing repulsivescum Party who are responsible for DEPLETING the U.S. military by taking on much more than they could chew…

…occupying TWO countries at once is MADNESS…

Like I’ve said repeatedly THE DEMONS are liars, EVERY ONE of them…

…virulent venereal is no exception…
