"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Orwell in Babylon: Obama's War-Continuing 'Withdrawal' Plan
Submitted by Christopher Lempa on Thu, 2009-02-26 16:00
?It would be superfluous in us to point out that a plan to 'end' a war which includes the continued garrisoning of up to 50,000 troops in a hostile land is, in reality, a continuation of that war, not its cessation. To produce such a plan and claim that it 'ends' a war is the precise equivalent of, say, relieving one's bladder on the back of one's neighbor and telling him that the liquid is actually life-giving rain.?
