Entry: Foreign Follies Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/foreign_follies#18349 Post contents: Forrest You just described official Republican and Bush policy with the exception of your naive assumption that either side of the Welfare/War party has any intention of cutting back on the Imperial march to war. McCain certainly is not and Obama will be led along the pat by the Democratic "neo-cons" Bankrupt the country to bring on an Imperial Depression to destroy the Federal government. Then private armies roll up the wreckage and a picked man on a white horse is set up as dictator to rule over the wreckage. Not good for those of us who loved the old Republic. But there aren't many of us left anyway. They just need to pick a better guy for the white horse than General Smedley Butler this time. General Petraeus seems to be dictator of choice. It will be interesting to see how much integrity is left in the Officer corps. Sent at: 2008 09 06
