Pax Democratica?
A coworker of mine recently made a remark along the lines of “people who like world peace are looking forward to having a Democrat in the White House.” Let’s take a stroll down memory lane and review the wonderful peace previous Democrats have produced for us.
- Pres. Clinton: World Trade Center attack (1996), Khobar Towers bombing, USS Cole bombing, U.S. Embassy bombings, U.S. bombs Iraq, U.S. bombs Iraq again, U.S. bombs Sudan & Afghanistan, U.S. bombs Serbia
- Pres. Carter: Iranian revolution, U.S. hostages and general ridicule of the U.S.
- Pres. Johnson and Pres. Kennedy: Vietnam War and domestic unrest
- Pres. Truman: Korean War
For all their conceit and yammering, those Democrats sure don’t produce much peace do they?
