The Right Report
First off I want to thank David for allowing me to
contribute to the great foundation that he set up here on The Right
Report. I could not be more excited to
put my "two cents" in on many of the issues that David and I have
talked about and are going to share with you. Although I agree on majority of
the basic principles that are in politics today, David and I differ on the
finer details, which will be fun for us and you as readers.
Iraq may play perfectly into the Republican campaign for the
2016 election. The ISIS (Islamic State
in Iraq and the Levant and Islamic State) with it's violent executions and
downright brutality in Iraq have backed the President up against the
ropes. His already weak foreign policy
is under the microscope again. The U.S.
Military recently rescued 20,000 Yazidi Iraqi's with a series of
airstrikes. This is exactly why troops
are necessary in foreign countries. The
people need help defending against these attacks, not to mention the food, and
water needed for when they are stranded in the desert fleeing for their
lives. It sounds crazy with the media
making it sound like everyone is thrilled when the President announced troops
coming home, however the American public does not like to run from a
fight. That's what the Republicans need
to make one of their leading stances. We
will not run from conflict, because that is what makes America great! We may take it to extremes, but I'd take
participating much over sitting out any day of the week. With the stance that bringing the troops home
would make the United States vulnerable and weak, (which it will), Republicans
may grab a lot of those blue collar, "put your hard hat on and go to
work", votes that Democrats seem to always receive. Not to mention the most powerful tool in an
election is Nationalism. Pure passion
for your country. If you think that
bringing troops home to sit and wait shows your country and its people that
there is no better place on Earth than America, you're kidding yourself. We need presence in these countries, and if
the Republicans can bring that passion in 2016, I think it will be a great
start.
