that's a pretty thin rail to hang your hat on Ken. Its also not good enough to get you out of answering my challenge. That's okay, I understand the cognitive dissonance is too much for you to handle after losing this bruising but short skirmish that ended with your bloodied corpse on the floor. I'm surprised you even showed your virtual face in this thread. Bush is the biggest embarrassment in American history, and you are his biggest supporter.

They've been beating communists in American elections, have they not?  What more protection do you need?  Take a day or two off being paranoid, you might like it.

Communism died in '89. Whatever Milosevic and Putin wish to call themselves thereafter is quite irrelevant. "Global Communism" is irrelevant.

The campaign in Bosnia was a NATO enterprise. The north atlantic treaty organisation was created to contain Russian ambition. Clinton supported and nurtured our alliances in NATO. He took NATO to war. NATO expanded on Bush's watch, wich is a good thing. He also systematically alienated important NATO Allies. But the heart of the argument we're having my friend, is NATO's raison d'etre (I can use French now that Sarkozy has brought his country back into the fold), the containment of Russian ambition.

That is unquestionably what has come crashing down in spectacular fashion at the end of Bush's presidency. It will go down as the biggest failure of Bush's presidency, something I didn't think possible after the botched occupation of Iraq.

That is why I'm calling you out. It is you that has gone off topic my friend. You can choose to live in 1974, but I came of age after the fall of communism, and my two children

 

will be left with the catastrophic legacy of your antiquated world view. God help us all, and god help you, KenTX. Good night.
