During WWII, essentially ALL of America's resources and manpower were dedicated to the war effort. We have been fighting this war for the past five years with almost no inconvenience to ordinary life -- there is no draft, there is no reallocation of resources. What Pelosi and the others fail to understand is that this war never would have needed to be fought if we had addressed terrorism previously. If Jimmy Carter had stood by the Shah of Iran in 1978-79 and not allowed the jihadists to take over there, most of what we have now would have been avoided. BJ Klintoon ignored terrorism for eight years because it interfered with his "legacy"/sex life.

But if Pelosi would like, we could end this war today if we do to the Islamofascist world exactly what we did to the Japanese. Perhaps someone should clarify that for her.

All of that refers directly to the demonstrated facts and a verifiable historical record. Of course, 'history' is a dirty word for Liberals.

Could... should and would have happened back in September of '01 if we had not decided to call Islam a religion of peace and handcuff our troops with KGC warfighting rules.

But the intervening 8 Reagan years were full of kickin' muzzie a$$?
