Ok Dug you convinced me.
“Ok Dug you convinced me.”
Pointing out that a strategy will result in defeat is not waving a white flag.
You pointing it out does not make it so. You lose exactly 100% of the battles you don't fight.
Karl Rove and Britt Hume said, and I paraphrase, the Republican Congress’ must give up the power of the purse because the MSM blames them for everything. Really they said that.
We sure have a lot of ‘FR’eepers as much in denial of Nov. 4 as the RATS are, no?
And the meme of Cruz shutting down the Grubermint resulting in horrible awful disapproval rating of republicans last December, well, that didn’t last long, now did it?
“You lose exactly 100% of the battles you don’t fight.”
It is a poor General who wastes his time and strength fighting battles he cannot win.
Nuts!
“Nuts!”
If you do not agree with my statement that: “poor generals waste their time and strength fighting battles they cannot win”, then you must believe that ‘great generals waste their time and strength fighting battles they cannot win’?
Brigadier General Anthony C. McAuliffe commander of the 101st Airborne Division troops defending Bastogne, Belgium, during World War II's Battle of the Bulge. He is famous for his single-word reply of "Nuts!" in response to a German surrender ultimatum.
My friend I was well aware of the source of the quote. Too bad it’s irrelevant. Bastogne was in no way an un-winnable battle since Patton was moving up to break the siege.
Would you care to try again to disprove my comment that “It is a poor General who wastes his time and strength fighting battles he cannot win.”
To what end, nothing will remove you from your bunker.
Some things gnaw at a man worse than dying. Kevin Costner in the movie Open Range.
A coherent, well planned, strategy with a chance of success would ‘remove me from my bunker’. Arm waving, wishful thinking, and an insistence that we must do something regardless of it’s unlikely success will not.
Obama is the matador and amnesty is his cape. Why do you wish to play the part of the bull?
Because you won't.
A coherent, well planned, strategy with a chance of success would remove me from my bunker.
Apparently no plan exists and you don't describe one so you get to stay in your bunker and lament, What Might Have Been.
No plan to resist existed for those Jews that were led to their happy workplace. Had they resisted they surely would have died, so they did not fight a battle they could not win, they still died. Take you GOPe surrender monkey attitude and shove it. Don't tell me what we can't do. tell me what you will do, else get out of they way.
