I Don't Think The General Gets It.

Quote:WASHINGTON — While the nuclear agreement with Iran will not stop it from funding organizations the United States considers to be terrorist groups, the pact reduces the chances of a near-term military conflict between the two countries, the top American military leader, Gen. Martin E. Dempsey, told Congress on Wednesday.
That's exactly what the republicunts are upset about. As long as they ain't fighting them and their leash holders are getting rich off of them, wars are not things to be avoided.

These are the Shitheads that call Carter disaster, you know the guy that that never fired a shot in his presidency and was in term for the most peaceful 4 years since WWII.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

You know, as much as I can appreciate the man's principles, I remember the Carter administration. Economically, it was a disaster.

They usually refer to his foreign policy.

That's what you get for not starting wars.

There's a lot more to foreign policy than not starting wars. Carter projected weakness - something you must not do when facing down wolves. I doubt it's any coincidence that the Iranians released the hostages on the day Reagan took office.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

That was Iran's final "fuck you" to Carter. Had nothing to do with that senile old fuck, Reagan.
