In the latest attempt by Democrats to ensure a clear run for Hillary in 2008, they have begun a campaign against the re-alignment of US troops throughout the world. Never mind that the leaders of Germany, South Korea, and NATO have all endorsed the planned troop movement. Never mind that we've got soldiers in Germany to protect a border that doesn't exist from an enemy that doesn't exist. Never mind that Kim Jong Il has nuclear capabilities so it doesn't matter if our troops are ten miles from the border or fifty.
It's amazing how much the liberals in this country hated the Cold War. They argued that it was the worst move we could make, that we were arrogant, that we were going to end the world in a horrible nuclear disaster. Apparently, without notifying anyone else of the fact, they have decided that they now love the Cold War so much that they don't want to officially bring it to an end. Now they'd like for our troops to stay on in Germany fulfilling a job that was finished ten years ago.
And the real kicker is that now we have to watch the press treat Wes Clark as if he had a brain again. Does no one remember the disgraceful manner in which this incompetent man ran the Kosovo campaign? Even more importantly, have we forgotten that he was fired from his job by Bill Clinton for being so incompetent? Of course, the Democrats are jumping on the fact that McCain is also "worried" about this shift. I like McCain, I think he's got some good ideas. But he's wrong on this and it's becoming a parody that the Democrats love him so much.
Deep down, this reflects exactly what is wrong with the Democrats this year. They have no agenda. They claim that they do, but a brief glance reveals the cold bitter truth. They have nothing to run on save disgust for George W. Bush. That has been their entire platform since the primaries began and it is still serving to guide their actions. They will criticize anything that this President says just because of how much they hate him. Kerry has officially become the anti candidate. That's not a platform I'd be interested in supporting.
