Quote of the Day: "Terrorist attacks are not caused by the projection of force; they are invited by the perception of weakness."
That pearl of wisdom dripped from the fangs of our glorious vice-leader, Richard B. "Go Fuck Yourself" Cheney, in a prepared speech today at the conservative thinktank, The Heritage Foundation.
So, then, what the hell is going on in Iraq, where we have about 150,000 troops in the aftermath of what was once referred to as "shock and awe"? Are we not projecting enough force to dissuade terrorist attacks? In fact, if my memory serves me correctly, there weren't too many terrorist attacks in Iraq prior to the coalition invasion in March of 2003. And since our troops have been there, the number of attacks has increased...oh...just a tad.
Our leadership continues to talk out of their asses in the hope that people aren't paying attention. Sadly, most people probably aren't, and many who are paying attention already have swallowed the kool-aid. So we continue to hear the same old crap from these people.
Is there any reason why we should believe what they say? Of course not.
Thanks for talking to us, Mr. Cheney...er...Dick.

Yeah, nothin' like 150,000 of America's Finest armed with the best killing weapons since the dawn of time plus air power of unrivaled proportions and the greatest navy known to man not to mention having the H-bomb to give the enemy a comforting perception of weakness...
"Say, Omar, where's that weakness again?
"We shall attack Cheney's testicles!
Hey, I love "Dances With Vito". A classic!
Dick Cheney is my worst nightmare of a human being. Think how much better of a place this world would be without him1
Soooo, I guess Iraq must have looked weak to somebody because they are certainly enduring one long terrorist attack while we lie in wait to pounce on the next one.
Oh by the way, Google has given you an ad for Rick Perry (Governor Goodhair) on the sidebar. ;-)
