HARTtalk

Laying it on tough-guy thick for the redneck, whiteguy, and bluedog, the Senator pontificates about we who would be Rome. I introduce to you a man who is so proud of his words in the wake of the then "recent events", he opens with them again:
"we will find Osama bin Laden, give him a fair trial as we did in the old West, and then we'll hang him."

This, to make the point that "the mission changed" and that's where we lost our way. As if all things pre-2005 were just donkey dory, money well-spent and on the moral high-ground "in that perpetually troubled land."
"We were a nation out for vengeance and right was on our side."

Class A bullshit, Donkey-style.
