Democrat John Edwards Wednesday repudiated the notion that there is a “global war on terror,” calling it an ideological doctrine advanced by the Bush administration that has strained American military resources and emboldened terrorists.
In a defense policy speech he planned to deliver at the Council on Foreign Relations, Edwards called the war on terror a “bumper sticker” slogan Bush had used to justify everything from abuses at the Abu Ghraib prison to the invasion of Iraq.
“We need a post-Bush, post-9/11, post-Iraq military that is mission focused on protecting Americans from 21st century threats, not misused for discredited ideological purposes,” Edwards said in remarks prepared for delivery. “By framing this as a war, we have walked right into the trap the terrorists have set—that we are engaged in some kind of clash of civilizations and a war on Islam.”
Just to add to Martin’s post, what exactly does the Silky Pony call this, if it’s not war? If it is war, but not a war on terrorists, what the hell is it, genius? I’m all ears. What is this?
GO TO HELL, JOHN EDWARDS.
Maybe Silky Ponies are too farking vapid and self-absorbed to remember why we’re at war. I may just register as a Democrat just so I can cast a primary ballot against him next year. Go to hell, John Edwards. You are an amoral, soulless empty suit, completely devoid of any moral compass beyond getting elected for your own selfish purposes.
