#11 Poor Folk writes: “And yes, he[Chaney] was the vice president that talked more about his paranoid delusions concerning those that disagreed with than trying to come up with solutions to win the two hot wars he started…”

#15 Robert V. Kennedy: “Rumsfield[sic] knowingly and willingly sent American Soldiers into combat without enough personnel support and without proper gear and armor.”

The trolls are so hysterical about the dive in Obie’s popularity with independents and their dislike of his failing efforts to fascisticize the country that they are losing their grasp on reality.

Only the armies of countries led by dictators bent on attacking and destroying their enemies, such as North Korea and Iran, are well prepared for war, or think they are, when it starts. Secretaries of Defense and Vice-Presidents have no power to send troops into combat anywhere. Hussein started one hot war, the Taliban the other. Bush responded to warmakers.

Truman’s army, unprepared for the Korean war. FDR’s army, unprepared for fighting on two fronts, ETO and the Pacific. Kennedy’s army, unprepared for the initial battles of Viet Nam. Shall we go back to Lincoln? No, let’s look to the future shall we? Obama’s foreign policy and military weakened and unready to prevent North Korea and Iran from building and deploying nukes.

Trolls are highly susceptible to swine fever of the brain.
