J's Cafe Nette

As much as I love Tonto I must strongly disagree with two posts he has made today.

Since my allergies are giving me a lot of trouble I’m going to combine my thoughts into this one post and title it J’s Corner.

The first, and probably most important to me, shows the difference between a liberal and a conservative. Titled Not My Fight Tonto explains why he feels we should not be in Iraq.

Well, you know what? I don’t want to be there either, but we are there and saying we shouldn’t be is a moot point. We can’t shouldn’t do anything that has already been done.

I don’t care about Iraq or it’s people. I care about the children that we are sending over there to fight a lost cause. There are so many things that we could be spending the money on that we are pouring down the toilet over there. I think that we should stop being such cowards when it comes to terrorist, boogeymen.

This is only a lost cause if we make it a lost cause. We are now trying to force the Iraqis to learn to defend themselves and it will take time.

I don’t like losing one American life over there, but war is about killing.

Terrorism is not something I call a boogeyman. A boogeyman is something that scares a child at night. Terrorism scares this adult all day for the sake of our children living today.

These radical Islamists are out to form a world-wide caliphate and nothing will stop their desire to do so except force, and I’m not sure how long that can continue with people wanting to cut losses and run.

That’s not the America in which I grew up until the Viet Nam war.

Historians now tell us we actually won the Tet Offensive but because the major media, and Walter Cronkite, at the time said we should be out, we came out with our tails tucked between our legs. Our soldiers who fought over there were spat upon when they returned and called baby killers.

We have lost less troops in this entire war than we were losing in a week in Viet Nam. Who cries over their deaths today? Who did back then?

No one because it’s only politically expedient to say you support the troops when in fact you don’t support them or you wouldn’t be sending bad morale signals to them day in and day out.

This is my war because 19 terrorists made civilian airplanes airborne missiles on Sept. 11, 2001. We had done nothing to provoke these barbarians except be non-Muslims.

bin Laden said he could do this to us because we wouldn’t have the guts to see it out, and sadly, some are proving him to be right.

Saddam didn’t attack us, so let’s get that out of the way right now.

He did, however, harbor Al Qaeda terrorists in Iraq and only killed one who was a leader there for medical treatment after he figured out the president was serious about with us or against us.

He provided a place and a wrecked plane for Al Qaeda to use for training how to hijack a plane in a place called Salmon Pak.

He was daily shooting at our aircraft that were flying to enforce the no-fly zones he agreed to in 1991.

It’s not because I love the Iraqi people because I know some are sneaky and will tell you one thing to your face while stabbing you in the back.

It’s because I want to contain the rat-infestation called Al Qaeda and radical Islam to their land and not my land. This is why it’s my war.

The second post I want to comment about is called Back to the 90’s.

Go back a bit further in history, about 20 years before the 90’s and you will see the entire thing played out to its ugly end in the Nixon presidency.

I’ll comment more on that with the post titled Tony Has Flipped Flopped.

If the aides of the president are required to testify under oath in public to a Congressional Committee looking for anything they can find to impeach this president they will be open to any questions Leahy and his counterparts in the House and colleagues in the Senate want to ask them.

It won’t stop at why did you fire the US Attorneys?

I’ve seen this before and it will not stop until the president has to devote so much time to defending himself and the administration that he won’t be able to do the job he was elected to do and our country will suffer because we have a president who is distracted.

It won’t stop until the Democrats have destroyed every single decent public servant who has served this president and hung out all the dirty laundry that may be hiding about the fired US Attorneys.

The president has the right to appoint and to fire political appointees, and that’s exactly what US Attorneys are. No reason has to be given, and Congress knows it.

What if they find out the voting fraud cases involved Democrats and the US Attorneys weren’t bringing charges because who knows why? Do they really want to know the inside scoop on all of that? I doubt it.

The bigger question is: do they really want to know about the firings of the US Attorneys, or do they want to destroy George W. Bush by any means necessary?

I’m convinced the very reason Clinton had so much grief while in office was pay-back for what happened to Nixon when he was in office, and GWB is having to pay for what happened to Clinton and round and round she goes. Where she stops nobody knows.

It’s time for it to stop now! Nothing illegal was done and Leahy and Schumer and the House Judiciary Committee chaired by John Conyers know it.

Congress needs to move on and get about the job of doing the nation’s business instead of trying to hurt someone for the rest of his life.

Tonto, you know I love you and I always will, but we just disagree on certain things. It’s nice we can do it and still have love and respect for one another.
