Oh dear, how depressing. What a Hobbsean choice America faces: An aging, nice but wishy-washy liberal (poor guy’s so confused he thinks he’s a Republican) and a mendacious extreme left charlatan. Rocks and hard places spring to mind. It’s very bad news not just for the US but the whole world. How on earth have we ended up with the present bunch of clueless world leaders at such a time of extreme danger. In fact the only leaders who seem to understand how History works are those seeking America’s destruction. Now, lambs and slaughters spring to mind.

Even so there really is only one rational choice: McCain. Which is why, with irrationality in the political ascendancy, I fear it will be the catastrophic Barry 0. Heaven help us all.

Actually the solution is so simple. Occupy the oil fields. That way you’d kill several vultures with one stone. Results:

1,Secure energy supply.

2 Utterly defeat the Jihadi states and their proxy terror groups who have no other source of income.

3, Grab other potential enemies, Like China, Russia and the EU, by the short and curlies and force them to behave.

Really think about it. Total victory in one bold stroke and a piece of low-casualty cake for the US military to take and hold the barely populated desert. Afterwards, America could afford to be magnanamous and say; “OK, now would you like to talk?” ……I know, dream on.
