War and Rumors of War

War with North Korea

South Korea is planning a massive retaliatory strike, not a pre-emptive strike.  They have already been attacked twice this year.  Hence, they will be retaliating.  Japan is willing to join in, but I won’t count on the Obama administration.  Obama suffers from rigor mortis.  Japan and South Korea can get the job done in a matter of a few weeks.  North Korea was only able to conduct a strong first strike during the Korean War because China was in there helping them. China will be reluctant this time around because they have much more to lose than gain. 

Truman should have allowed MacArthur to take our troops over the Yalu River and attacked China.  China would not be what it is today if Truman allowed MacArthur to do what he had proposed. Instead, Truman fired MacArthur.  Stupid.  Same thing with Patton.  He wanted to attack Russia, but Truman and Eisenhower kept him from doing that. Had they allowed Patton to attack Russia, the Soviet Union would have never been along with the 50-year Cold War, which Reagan ended.

We are in very dangerous times.  It is not a good policy for national survival to take a “weak on defense” approach to provocation by rogue nations upon our allies.  Where are Patton and MacArthur when we need them?

Obama will Back down from North Korea’s Bravado

Obama is a wuss. Hence, he will never attack North Korea. You can count on him dithering on such a bold decision. It is not in his DNA to man-up and fight. During critical times as this, he cannot even play basketball without getting his lips busted in.  What is he playing basketball for anyway?  He should be preparing for a highly potential major war in the  Far East.  Actually, he will end up paying the North Koreans billions of dollars as past administrations have done. Jimmy Carter won the Nobel Peace Prize (LOL!  We were caught as suckers.) for calming down the North Koreans with mucho dinero. Count on the Obama administration to do likewise. Maybe Obama will win a second Nobel Peace Prize for continuing to be a wuss.

Response to a War Hero

I have the greatest respect for Marines because a young Marine saved my life from drowning when I was around 10 years old.  So, I won’t parry with you in your special way of discussing serious matters with people. You come across as a bit bitter.  I like to stay above the fray, refrain from personal putdowns, and boasting about combat experience and medals. I try hard to remain professional in my debates with those who revel in verbal combat. 

However, I did serve for four years in AFROTC, over eight years of active duty in the USAF, and over a quarter century in the aerospace and defense industries developing military systems for our warfighters. Every military person has his areas of expertise and some serve in battle because of their physical prowess, while others (like me) support the warfighters with our education, knowledge, experience, and mental acuity. 

When I was working on my master’s degree in astronautics at the Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT), I volunteered to serve in combat in Vietnam.  However, the AFIT commandant told me to go back to my studies and graduate because they had enough grunts (I embarrassingly admit that he used the word “idiots”) to fight in the jungles of Vietnam.  He said, “Plus that, our U.S. warriors would probably mistake me [an Asian] for the enemy and shoot me dead.”  So, I sheepishly went back to my master’s research project in the Aero Propulsion Laboratory at Wright-Patterson AFB, Dayton, Ohio, and finished up my studies firing a shock tube instead of firing a rifle. 

So, I am sorry I cannot brag like you about any combat experience or earning silver or bronze stars for heroism. However, I did earn several ribbons, badges, medals, and awards–although none as impressive as your 12 decorations.  Hence, I thank you for your service and am glad that you did not unknowingly make the ultimate sacrifice as many of my friends did.  I hold your track record in high esteem.

Tea Parties Not Formed by Black Man in the White House

Some guy claimed that a black man in the White House caused the Tea Parties to form.  A black man in the White House has absolutely nothing to do with the formation of the Tea Parties. A Marxist-socialist in the White House has everything to do with the formation of the Tea Parties. It could have been any color man in the White House that was a Marxist-socialist, and you would have the formation of the Tea Parties.

Additionally, BHO is not a black man. He is just as much a White man as he is a Black man. He is a mulatto. So, people should stop bringing race into the mix. Those who inject racism into the discussion are racists themselves.  I am a yellow man.  If a yellow man was in the White House, and he was a Marxist-socialist, I would be against him and would join a Tea Party.  To be honest with you, the mulatto in the White House constantly plays the race card. Therefore, he is a white racist.  So, there you go.
