The Choice Between Action and Inaction in Iraq Yes, that was the title of the email I received from the Bush capmpaign. "American (sic) cannot retreat from our responsibilities and hope for the best. Our security will not be gained by timid measures. Our security requires constant vigilance and decisive action. I believe America has only one option: We must fight this war until the work is done," President Bush said. To which I say, ok. If Bush doesn't invade Saudi Arabia, North Korea, Pakistan, The West Bank, Iran, and Syria then we have no choice but to boot him out of office and elect a President that will. If he doesnt have the guts to do what needs to be done then he doesn't deserve to be president. We won't stop until we've taken down any and all governments that pose a potential threat to our safety. Because our security comes first. Its Action or Inaction right? No middle ground. If they support terrorism then they have to be destroyed, for our own safety. By that insipid logic we should vote for the candidate that is willing to bomb the most nations. Because they imply that "war is action" and "diplomacy is inaction". Contaiment is no longer and option right? So bombs away! When is a bad action worse than no action at all? Maybe when its done to build an image of "strength" for political reasons. UPDATE: via atrios and the ajc The true policy choice is between actions that make things better for the United States and actions that make things worse. If we were to assess the invasion of Iraq on those grounds, the outcome would be something like this: What I said, but said better. | |
