If congress is similar to Australian politics, it is full of people who couldn't make it successfully in the "real world".

Our Constitution still stands, somewhat amended, but it is still standing. Giving us reason to vote, and vote we must. Should we let the 'Progressives" run our country. They were in power when we had to withdraw from Viet Nam. And they were influenced by the liberal "Progressive' demonstrators. Flip-flop Flip-flop.

General David Petraeus was subject to an inquisition by quislings proves 
the founding fathers were correct to point out in Federalist 75 that 
Congress should have a minimal role in foreign policy.</SPAN>
</p> <P>
<SPAN>In the Federalist Papers Alexander Hamilton 
wrote:</SPAN> 
</p> <P>
<SPAN>"<A target="_blank" href="http://thomas.loc.gov/home/histdox/fed_75.html">Accurate and comprehensive knowledge 
of foreign politics; a steady and systematic adherence to the same views; 
a nice and uniform sensibility to national character; decision, SECRECY, 
and despatch, are incompatible with the genius of a body so variable 
and so numerous</A><A target="_blank" href="http://thomas.loc.gov/home/histdox/fed_75.html">.</A>"</SPAN>
</p> <P>
<SPAN>What I found most disturbing in the proceedings 
was the emphasis of certain members of Congress on the themes of -- losing, 
unwinnable, intractable, not worth it, mistake, fiasco.</SPAN> 
</p> <P>
<SPAN>The point I have yet to hear from those 
opposed to winning the war is exactly how a precipitous withdrawal and 
defeat is a geopolitical silver bullet.</SPAN></P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/2C69E438-D770-4B35-8EAA-B9E8DC19598B/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
