Vietnam All Over Again?

Chaitanya Jyothi Museum Opening, 2000

RAMANAM
In the Name of The Father, and of The Son and of The Holy Spirit, Amen.

Countrymen,

ORBIS NON SUFFICIT
SOLUS DEUS SUFFICIT

The situation today is Vietnam all over again in the sense that once again the Democratic Party, with backing from academe and hostile foreign governments, is using their friends in the media to declare victory defeat so they can acquire the instruments of government.

The partisans of the Democratic Party are willing to hurt our Armed Forces, harm our troops and subvert our national security in order to embarrass a political enemy, the President of the United States, with dissembling of their own making.

Their behavior is thoroughgoing wickedness, from the inside out: it is civil war.

The correct response is patience, let the wind blow, and get on with solving the problems attending World Civil War I (aka, the Global War on Terror), as the partisans of the Democratic Party should be doing also. The correct political response is to lay into them with full-spectrum rhetorical assault, pounding the law, the facts and the table.

Operation Iraqi Freedom is going very well, as did Vietnam so few years ago. Partisans of the Democratic Party, together with their supports in academe, media and hostile foreign governments, are desperate to prevent awareness of the success of President Bush and Coalition Forces in Iraq, as they were then of President Nixon and Allied Forces in Southeast Asia. They are willing to sacrifice anyone and anything to win elections in 2006 and 2008, as they were in 1972 and 1976. Their motivations are and were purely political. They are murderers.
