The Right is foolishly giving weight to the Democrat's argument that this administration is weak on defense.
...Just eight months to the next election...
Everyone in unison say it loud: "The Democrats are tough on defense...". Keep repeating until the squishy middle buys it and elects a Democrat majority. I shudder to think...
The administration, not to be confused with conservative America, is weak on border control, and that is a part of defense. So in that respect, yes, there is a massive weakness in defense.
We've got the front door locked, bolted, and fully secured. But sadly, we've left the basement door not only unlocked, but all but wide open with the dog sleeping in another room of the basement.
Interesting observation. That could happen. I remain optimistic that it won't.
Regardless, '06 is going to be an interesting election year.
