From what I've read this was huckleberry's finest moment of the night. I agree with every word he said:
! No longer available
In the short time I listened, I heard several statements in which I completely agree......but words are easy to spew. Their actions over the last 10 year say something totally different, especially when we held the Presidency and both houses.
I hope that you recognize the context in which I presented huckleberry's video. It wasn't meant as a blanket endorsement of him. I haven't thrown in with any camp yet.
I don't cling to any false notions of a "white knight" no particular pun intended) riding in to save the day. IMHO we have to deal with the here and now and the cards we've been dealt. As a nation we have become schizophrenic - two voices that share no commonality. Every day the gulf widens a little more. It is my personal belief that we have truly passed the Rubicon upon which our "experiment in governance" was constructed and the only way beyond it will come with the pure cleansing nature of flame.
In the meanwhile, since we have yet to progress to open warfare I have to work with what I have available. Unlike some (definitely
not implying you!) I am willing to listen to anyone - left or right. I'll hear what they have to say and will acknowledge and even commend what makes sense. You'll notice that I don't often acknowledge or commend anything coming from the left, and that's for a reason. There is precious little that any of them ever say that is worthy of note or commendation.
I have read or seen soundbites from nearly all of the pubbie candidates, and there are some nuggets of truth to be found here and there. Huckleberry was spot on regarding the purpose and proper disposition of the military. Whatever else that he says that is goofy or naive, you (editorial you) can't take that away from him.
