A Grateful Memo To Neal Boortz From Nancy Greggs
Having read your comments re the Virginia Tech incident, (i.e. ) I have to say that I couldn’t agree more with your analysis of the situation.
Our young men and women are becoming way too wussified, and that bodes ill for the entire country – especially in these times when we are virtually hours away from having to fight terrorists right down the road at the local mall.
But given the role models our children are growing up with, is it any wonder that they are turning out the way they are?
One has to look no further than the current administration to see where this glorification of wussification started. We have a president whose daddy had to get him into the National Guard during the Viet Nam days, because Junior was too scared to do his military duty – and then the little pisser (obviously as lazy as he was cowardly) couldn’t even be bothered to show up for cushy duty.
And things certainly haven’t changed. Remember when Lil’ Georgie was questioned by the 9-11 Commission – and insisted that Uncle Dick Cheney go with him? I guess he needed Uncle Dick to hold his hand because his Mommie wasn’t allowed to attend.
The Wuss-in-Chief just loves playing dress-up Commander Guy, and yet he can’t even face a crowd of people if they haven’t been pre-screened and hand-picked ahead of time. It just cracks me up when he talks about fighting ‘em over there instead of here, because it’s obvious that all Al Qeada would have to do to take the guy down is ask him a question that wasn’t pre-approved and pre-answered. Geesh, no wonder American kids are turning out to be such cowards, with that kind of Zero-the-Hero at the helm.
Then there’s Dick “Five Deferments” Cheney, the girly-man who, after shooting his friend in the face, had to have the Little Lady of the house he was staying at go out and deal with the reporters. What a wussified dick he turned out to be. No wonder he spends most of his time at an undisclosed location – he’s too damned scared to do anything else.
I hate to tar an entire group with one enormous crybaby brush, but you can’t ignore the impact of those Republicans who rubber-stamped every idiotic Bush-the-Wuss idea that came down the pike. Want to spy on citizens? Want to use illegal wire-taps? Want to bankrupt the country with debt? “Oh, yes, sir, yes, sir, whatever you want. We’ll forget our oversight role and just give you whatever you demand.” And people have the audacity to wonder why the younger generation are growing up to be so spineless, when the root of this evil couldn’t be clearer.
The real tragedy is how all-pervasive this wussification has been during the Bush years, and if you look at the C-in-C’s (Coward-in-Chief’s) so-called advisors, the PNAC crowd, it is blatantly obvious how this all started. I mean, Bill Kristol, for God’s sake? Imagine being in combat with that shrinking violet; you’d have to call for a time out in the middle of the War on Terror every fifteen minutes so he could have his hair re-fluffed and his manicure re-done.
As for your statement about the “ludicrous campus ban on licensed conceals”, I think that pretty well sums things up. Had all of the VT students been packin’ heat, this tragedy could not have been avoided – but we’d certainly have had way more dead students than the paltry amount we wound up with. It could have been a glorious free-for-all, with guns blazing and literally hundreds of students being shot to death in the confusion that ensued.
Granted, a lot more parents would have been burying their children – but their grief would have been more than compensated by knowing that their kids went out in a blaze of glory, firing their last round with pride and a sense of patriotism that has been all but lost over the past few years.
I think we can agree that losing a child in such a manner would be a tragic thing. However, there are worse fates for one’s offspring; like watching them grow up to be an idiotic radio personality who cowers behind his microphone while telling everybody else what they would have done in any given circumstance, if only they’d been there.
We may have become a wussified nation – but knowing that you are at-the-ready to protect us gives me hope for a safer, more secure America.
