After reading your infectious essay "Audacity of Victory" and your very kind note requesting permission to excerpt portions of "How America Got It Right" may I say that your weblog "Great Satan's Girlfriend" has also got it right. Congratulations on GsGf's first anniversary.It is inconceivable that the United States, after having conquered Afghanistan and Iraq and driven al Qaeda into hiding, will give up with the job half done.
In Afghanistan we must establish order.
In Iraq we must prevent the Shiites from setting up an Iranian-style tyranny, the Sunnis from reimposing a dictatorship, and both from oppressing the Kurds.
Beyond Iraq, we must track down and kill terrorists wherever they exist. We must keep Iran from building an atomic bomb. We must force North Korea to give up its nuclear program. We must stop these and any other rogue states from selling weapons of mass destruction to terrorists.
These are black-and-white issues for the vast majority of Americans, notwithstanding complaints from the far left. Just as America has gotten it right throughout our history, our government is getting it right today.
The leftist critics have got it wrong—because what they are hoping for, peace without a price, will never come to pass on this earth.

Courtney: I've read some of your comments over at Right Truth while making my own, but with your one year anniversary, I thought I'd drop by. Debbie's right: you are impressive, in many facets.
ReplyDeleteThanks for being all that you are, and on our side.

Happy Anniversary!
ReplyDelete"Beyond Iraq, we must track down and kill terrorists wherever they exist."
They're based in Pakistan, and have been for many years. They have for decades had close ties with the ISI.
"We must keep Iran from building an atomic bomb. We must force North Korea to give up its nuclear program. We must stop these and any other rogue states from selling weapons of mass destruction to terrorists."
Pakistan's A. Q. Khan network, which has never been held accountable for its proliferation, is still active. Khan's network is responsible for passing a great deal of this technology to these "rogue states". Where did Khan's network get it?
Khan's network is tied in with Pakistan's ISI; the Pakistani government has gotten a great deal of assistance from Beijing. Beijing has stolen classified information about every currently deployed thermonuclear warhead in the US arsenal -- and the leaks have never been plugged.
1) Where else do Khan and the ISI get their nuclear secrets from -- and how?
2) Why has the PRC's espionage in the US never been effectively dealt with, despite the fact that these nuclear secrets wind up in Pakistan, and despite the fact that Khan's network has offered nuclear weapons technology to al Qaeda?
3) Why has President Clinton never been held accountable for his treasonous exchange of sensitive US military technology for campaign contributions to the DNC?
4) Why are we siding in the Balkans with traffickers of heroin, arms and sex slaves, who have ties to Osama bin Laden and other Islamic extremist terrorists, against Serbia?
The answers to these questions are related -- and they might surprise you.
Good to see the French announcing more troops to assist with order in Afghanistan, hopefully other NATO nations will now be compelled to follow ...
ReplyDeleteHi Uncle Joe - thank you very much!
ReplyDeleteAlso appreciate the awesome blog of the week award you gave me. Much obliged.
Skunkfeathers. Thank you for saying that. I've thought much the same about your commentary.
ReplyDeleteThe more I learn about American History and current events the more I am convinced She is one of a kind. Especial and essential.
Debbie! Hey there wild woman! Thank you for the awesome congrats. I appreciate all your support and guidance (that is exactly what Right Truth is) You are the standard and it's up to part timers like me to try and meet or try to exceed that standard.
ReplyDeleteI also wish to thank you publicly for the kind comradery you've freely imparted to me.
Thank you is not a big enough word.
The time you've shared (and your other 1/2 for creating those logo blocky thingys) is significant. I recognise that - I know your time is precious and I thank you for sharing it with me.
sincerely,

Hi Yankee Doodle,
ReplyDeleteThank you!
That may make a great guest essay - if you like bang it out and html it to me at my gsgf account (it's listed on the sidebar)
Thank you for visiting - please come back anytime.
Dr Bevin Alexander, thank you very much for the essay. Your book "How America Got It Right" is essential reading. I try my little bit to spread the word and I reccommend everyone get this book TODAY! Dare ya - it will totally change your life.
ReplyDeleteGreat posting, Courtney. I love the essay-ish analytical style!
ReplyDeleteGsGf: yes, Debbie runs an exceptional, very well versed site. So it is clear, do you.
ReplyDeleteWhile my blog tends to stick to general nonsense -- my own pratfalls, misadventures and baiting of email scammers -- I do delve into history now and again. I can never get enough of stories of the Greatest Generation, let alone our first-rate men and women of our current Great Generation, fighting the good fight abroad, while home-front blogging soldiers like you and Debbie wield a fierce pen as a broadsword, fending off defeatists, cowards and the enemy within.
You're our future, and the future is yours. Keep up the good fight against ignorance and Chamberlainism.
Congratulations on your first year!
ReplyDeleteHere's wishing you many, many more...you're consistently excellent.
Your production values are first rate!
Thank you. Buyincoins congratulation!
