"Appeasement" my ass !

President Bush and later, John McCain dared to say the word “APPEASEMENT” with a wink at the Democrats.

For you that don’t know your history and especially your WWII history, appeasement is a word identified with Neville Chamberlain, the British Prime Minister who thought he “appeased” Adolf Hitler by giving him parts of Czechoslovakia so as to have “peace in our time”.

Well, we all know what happened next.

Bush and McCain inferred that the Democrats would rather “appease” our enemies than to crush them before they can harm us. This all stemmed from the fact that Obama said he would talk to the President of Iran as part of his foreign diplomacy efforts instead of just attacking the country.

Needless to say, my blood immediately started to boil at the chutzpah of an idiot that has caused so much damage to the world and his own country through his cowboy diplomacy (shoot and then talk). Bush has the nerve to defend his totally failed, disastrous foreign policy on the eve of his leaving the presidency with the facts of his debacles staring him right in the face; is he totally insane or just delusional – maybe both?

Once I calmed down I thought that this political ploy; equating Obama with Neville Chamberlain, could and would resonate with the conservative male sector of this country, the ones that feel that the sword is always mightier than mere words.

Bush and McCain are obviously implying that the Democrats are willing to sacrifice our safety for a false sense of peace. This is called fear-mongering and has worked in the past.

The Democrats, to their credit, did immediately respond but I think the response should not only be loud but prolonged!

I think the nation should be shown from all angles, what the Bush / McCain philosophy has wrought. The nation has to be shown how things would be so different today if a “sane” person was president and how things will not change if another republican is elected to the presidency.

McCain, who has been trying to distance himself from Bush on some sound advice, may have made a fatal error by endorsing and supporting Bush’s “appeasement” charge against the Democrats.

Lets make some noise about “appeasement”…
