Bolton/Burge ‘08
July 26th, 2008 at 2:39 pm by BrianS&L posits an interesting proposition but unless there’s a coup at the RNC convention we can still expect the Pompous Pilate Pope of Hope to square off against the Aging Arizonan.
Still, I can dream of a day where John Bolton conveys his executive middle finger to the White House press corp the way he does to Obambi’s Innocents Abroad speech:
Perhaps Obama needs a remedial course in Cold War history, but the Berlin Wall most certainly did not come down because “the world stood as one.” The wall fell because of a decades-long, existential struggle against one of the greatest totalitarian ideologies mankind has ever faced. It was a struggle in which strong and determined U.S. leadership was constantly questioned, both in Europe and by substantial segments of the senator’s own Democratic Party.
C-Span re-aired The Greatest Speech To The Largest Audience In History (each speech greater than the last) this morning and I must say that Amy Winehouse would do well to be as substance free as your typical Obama speech. The idea that the Berlin Wall fell because the world grabbed a Coke and defeated Communism with a rousing chorus of “I’d Like To Teach The World To Sing” in our collective native tongues is beyond preposterous. But it’s what he says. Speeches as vacuous as lyrics to a U2 hit and the sunglasses to boot.
Bono Diplomacy may “raise awareness” but to date it hasn’t solved a single problem save moving a few ipods.
The successes Obama refers to in his speech — the defeat of Nazism, the Berlin airlift and the collapse of communism — were all gained by strong alliances defeating determined opponents of freedom, not by “one-worldism.” Although the senator was trying to distinguish himself from perceptions of Bush administration policy within the Atlantic Alliance, he was in fact sketching out a post-alliance policy, perhaps one that would unfold in global organizations such as the United Nations.
Seeing as how the UN is going to be run by African tinpots and the usual kleptocracy of one-world appointees for the foreseeable future, good luck with that whole “never again” Darfur thingy. You think those soldiers can tell the difference between the Janjaweed militia and civilians anymore than you can tell a Shia from a Sunni? You think that’s a compelling US interest to expend blood and treasure?
Maybe it is. Maybe it isn’t. But you certainly can’t make that case if Iraq didn’t meet the criteria.
Here’s a real-life “Dreams of My Father” in today’s Financial Times. This is the reality of what The One-Worlders accomplish when One World foolishly relies on them. If the US had gotten involved there, they would be trying to indict our representatives in the Hague instead of the true purveyors of genocide.
Can a Bolton/Burge ticket save us? I think I found my write-in.
