Do Not Reinforce Failure!
Edited on Thu Jun-22-06 07:39 PM by tom22
These days we are getting a lot of slogans thrown out by fat assed cowards who never risked their lives for a single minute in the defense of our country. Let's try to respond with some military common sense. You retreat and regroup when you are sending young men and women to their deaths with no discernible result. And you sure as hell don't reinforce failure.
You do what Lincoln did. You fire generals and you look for a strategy that will succeed. DO NOT REINFORCE FAILURE. This war has gone on almost as long as world war 2. The situation gets worse every month by any discernible measure. DO NOT REINFORCE FAILURE. And do not tolerate generals who fail.

1. The reverse is bushco's operating philosophy - miserable failures are
always praised and usually elevated in status.

bush says - REINFORCE FAILURE

2. I put up this post trying to give our Party
a response. YOU DO NOT REINFORCE FAILURE. and you do not send our sons and daughters into combat (which every administration official avoided). to die a senseless death. Do not let this moment pass without a measured response to the chickenhawks. I offer a response for the Party: DO NOT REINFORCE FAILURE!

3. yes, I understood that. It's a very strong admonition, especially since
the voting public has suffered through many years of seeing bush doing the opposite.

Those four words are powerful.
