Right on!
The point is that if you're gonna act like John Wayne, Clint Eastwood, and Steve McQueen all rolled into one then you better be damn sure you can back it up!
It isn't sufficient to reply "well Clinton didn't serve either!" (really, that tactic is truly played out), after all you don't see Democrats beating the war drum like a pack of power-mad jackals the way the oh-so-manly men of the Republican Party do.
Democrat service really doesn't come in play because they aren't playing the bullsht alpha male card...
...you know, actually that REALLY irritates me. This whole false assumption that in order to succeed at international diplomacy you need not be anything more than a playground bully would be hilarious if it wasn't so prevalent. Do you REALLY think that international relations are on par with those between 10 year olds?? Gimme a break.
but I digress..good article Joe!
