Some Lib named Gerald Fisher had this letter published in the Daily Punctilio (AKA the Ft. Wayne Journal Gazette) on Sunday. Lex fired a letter back to the DP. I ignored the low hanging fruit in Fisher’s piece – the idea that B-HO the dope who thinks hope is a substitute for policy has wisdom. Instead I zeroed in the pompous “’combat uber alles’” BS. To answer the idiocy that B-HO has wisdom would take 1,000s of words and you only get about 300 in a letter. Here’s the response:
It’s not a big surprise that CNN loving Libs want to credit success in Iraq, not to the heroism of American troops but rather to an “Iraqi awakening.” Does anyone else find it a bit too coincidental that “the awakening” didn’t take hold until AFTER “the few extra brigades” of Americans arrived in Iraq to believe that the surge wasn’t the main catalyst for the success?
But, that’s not the real problem with Fisher’s letter. The real problem is his total mischaracterization of John McCain. He refers to McCain as a “’combat uber alles’ – type.” Wow, that’s sophisticated – very international – and it makes the writer sound so smart. It also fits into Barack Obama’s appeal for Americans to learn another language – though oddly Obama doesn’t speak one himself, hmm. If only the “combat uber alles” shtick were true.
It isn’t. Fisher probably knows it’s not true. But then if his only information sources are CNN and Mother Jones, maybe Fisher IS ignorant of the fact that when McCain made his “100 years” comment on Iraq, he went on to say – “as long as Americans are not being injured wounded and killed.”
What a “combat uber alles” phony! How can you be a “’combat uber alles’ – type” and NOT be willing to have Americans injured wounded and killed?
Last, Fisher’s idea that “the Mideast’s socio-religious reality” will not support a long-term US effort to put that region on a path toward representative government and freedom sounds a little like racial profiling. What other groups around the world is Fisher willing to condemn to tyranny because of faith? It’s not the socio-religious reality in the Middle East that prevents freedom. Tyrannical, dictatorial and hereditary governments are the real problem in that region.

I wonder how many people like Fisher are lining up for a gov't job under Obama? This guy says he is transfixed by Obama's wisdom. Does he know that the moon landings never really happened and were filmed in Hollywood to fool the world? Does he know that bigfoot is an experimental government project gone crazy? Obama and wisdom? Here is a pretty key chain for you to play with until November.
