Mission Accomplished
Three summers ago, when Obama and Murtha were busy selling out the anti-war movement, we had a discussion on Liberalism with some friends. Now, as the progressive sideshow winds down on the domestic front, the Obama regime can concentrate on revitalizing American empire. Recovering lost imperial glory — tarnished by the crudeness of the Cheney/Bush years — won’t be easy, but with “Netroots Nation” behind them, Barack and Hillary should be able to at least rebrand the US image in the minds of politically illiterate Americans. And while that may not seem like much, it’s probably enough to kill off any talk of reducing the behemoth Department of Defense budget in order to cover our rapidly dwindling health and education infrastructure.
As W once said, “Mission Accomplished”.
