I believe I can predict Democrats behavior. I predict that Democrats will do ANYTHING to humiliate George Bush. I predict that they will look for and experiment with more and more creative ways to bring him down in the polls BEFORE he leaves office.
Why? Because he has systematically beaten them at their own game. He has won innumerable political victories by stealing ALL their issues from him. He has attained nearly everything he set out to do. Politically, this is the death knell for Dems. Bush's legacy will be to get credit for all the things he accomplished, despite the fact that some of them were traditionally liberal ideas. If he leaves with any shred of popularity he may well attain "living legend" status. This is a nightmare scenario for the Democrats.
I predict that Democrats will do ANYTHING to humiliate George Bush and prevent this future nightmare scenario. Unfortunately for America, I do mean *anything*. No matter the damage or consequences, this is one political victory before which all other concerns must and will be sacrificed.
Let's take the war, as a highly visible for instance. One inescapable conclusion based on the facts on the ground is that, militarily, we are about to win this war. In fact, since we have yet to lose a single battle it stands to reason that we cannot lose this war. Unless we quit, of course, and that's where the Democrats come in..
All the signs are there. The enemy is losing personnel, losing leadership, losing morale and losing support from the Iraqi people. This is now a war of attrition. Iraq, aided by America, will win its natural place on the world stage. A new democracy will be born in *the most unlikely of places* and George Bush will be able to take the credit for building a democratic nation from scratch IN RECORD TIME!!!
As far as military conflicts go, from such a strong (nearly unassailable) position we need only be concerned with the possibility of sabotage. What might the Democrats be able to do to tip the scales and give Al-Qaeda new life?
Hmmm, let's consider this. If America is not hit with another terrorist attack, that idiot also gets credit for keeping America truly safe. Surely there is something Democrats can do to foster or otherwise get a suicide bomber or somesuch on American soil - just one. We only need one.
We only need one to prove to the world that the Christian George Bush is not the best leader for these troubled times. Just one. Surely the Democrats can find or encourage one from somewhere. Look for it. Watch for it. Count on it.
If America wins in any way, George Bush wins. George Bush, whom they have belittled as being slow and dim-witted, comes out in the end looking like a political genius, and the Democrats look like small-minded, mental midgets.
If America is *allowed* to win this war then that dolt wins the PR battle of the century and Liberals (communists and socialists) the world over will be relegated to the scrap heap of history. The stakes are just that high. Liberals *must* defeat George Bush somehow in the time they have left. This is why they ran against George Bush in the elections. But how can they actually defeat him?
There's only one sure fire way, according to my predictive template.
First, we must consider that whatever is good for America is good for Republicans. Conversely, whatever is bad for America is a boon for Democrats. Inversely, whatever is good for America is poison for Democrats. Let's take a look at some of the legislation they propose now that they are in power.
They *must* find *some* way of tarnishing his LEGACY. I predict they will stop at nothing to accomplish this objective. (Sound familiar?) If Bush's legacy turns out as expected, Bush will be a thorn in their side for the rest of his life. Unencumbered by the dignity he has brought back to his current office, he will be able to take the gloves off and speak with unbearable gravitas against Liberals on the world stage. (Example: Jimmy Carter) George Bush's legacy will stymie them, like Regan's legacy has stymied them for decades.
The legacy must be tarnished. Therefore, look for ANYthing that might be embarrassing to the president. A military defeat would be embarrassing AND humiliating - watch for underhanded behind-the-scenes moves to undermine the military and prevent them from doing what they have been trained to do. Look for micro-managing of the war effort, all with the best intentions, of course, but SINGLE-MINDEDLY in pursuit of DEFEAT AT ANY COST.
And I predict that the Democrats will not propose ANY thing to build America up or to make America proud or to benefit America in any way. Democrats are the party of destruction - they do not build anything except monuments to themselves. Republicans are the party of construction.
To destroy with good intentions - to show pity and compassion, to give handouts instead of REAL support. This is Liberalism.
To protect, to celebrate and to share our good fortune with the democracies of the world. This is Conservatism.
Sure seems like a no-brainer to me.
