"Words" (As published on Pearl Harbor Day)

Last night, President Obama. "The King of the TelePrompter," said something to placate everybody except those of us who wanted to hear the words "win" and "victory," and how he proposes to achieve them. Instead, he gave us "warm puppies," and emboldened the enemy with the word "withdrawal."

The most effective military actions involve "massive force" applied "unexpectedly," catching the enemy off guard, and destroying his will to fight. I'll bet that's what they teach at West Point, where the cadets ignored instructions to respond enthusiastically, and dozed off while the President "bloviated."
