The Worst Of The “We Told You So’s”

We told you that things in the hope and change era would be bad. We told you the Obama minions were out to socialize America, to make you all dependent on the government for everything, enslaving you, taking from you what they think you should pay and distributing it to themselves while claiming to give it to the “poor”. And we were right. Government run healthcare with mandates that punish you with fines and even jail if you do not follow the plan; soon to be much higher taxes (though they refuse to call them taxes) when the Bush tax cuts end in January; government control of the banking and finance industries; government ownership of the auto industry. These things cannot be denied or spun into a nice Liberal package and be made to look good for our country.

And we told you it would happen.

Now, the scary part.

We also told you that Obama’s mamby pamby foreign policy was dangerous, that talking with our enemies from a position of capitulation and weakness would only egg them on and engender in them a sense of righteous purpose, fueling their zealous antagonism towards the west and the U.S. in particular and spurring them to even more dangerous and murderous behavior.

Iran is enriching uranium, claiming to any bleeding heart that will listen that their intentions are peaceful while supplying our enemies with the weapons that are still killing our troops in Afghanistan. In Afghanistan itself, the Taliban and Al Qaeda are increasing their attacks daily while Pakistan looks the other way, counting the days until our intentionally announced withdrawal date so they can claim yet another victory for Allah. Here in our own country since Obama took office we have had three nearly successful bombings that only failed due to the ineptness of the attackers and one horrible incident on one of our own military bases that killed seven people and wounded twenty more.

And then there’s North Korea.

As we speak, the North Koreans are threatening retaliation for our U.S. Navy presence along with the South Korean Navy as they conduct anti-submarine maneuvers off the Korean peninsula. The exercises are a show of force in response to the alleged sinking of a South Korean warship by a North Korean torpedo earlier this year, an attack the North denies. The North Korean government run press released a statement that said among other things that the North would launch a “sacred war” with a “powerful nuclear deterrence” against the U.S. and the South Koreans calling our presence there a “provocation”, and in the background, China watches and waits, holding our I.O.U’s in their hands and licking their collective chops.

While the bluster of Kim Jong Il has in the past been merely rhetoric, any threat of a nuclear “deterrence” against U.S. or allied forces is no laughing matter, and Obama is learning the same lesson that Presidents past have learned; there can be no dealing rationally with despotic dictatorial mad men, no concessions that will ever be good enough and capitulation and apology only confirm in the fevered minds of these lunatics what they have always believed; America is a paper tiger and no longer a force to be respected in the world. The last country that made that mistake suffered greatly and still bears the scars of sand turned to glass and flesh burned from bodies.

Let us pray that we don’t ever have to learn that lesson – ever. Let us pray we don’t have to say “We told you so” ever again.
