First, I'll take invading far off places over rolling up to a private citizen's house in tanks ala' Waco.

Secondly, people don't understand what Grenada was about. It wasn't about Grenada. It was about sending a statement to the world about what we would/would not accept. I'll take that over the erasable red-line statements we make today...

These folks set their standards based on whether the President has an R or D behind his name, which means that in their eyes, the Iranian hostage crisis and the Benghazi embassy attack are the worst foreign policy catastrophes in American history. Can you imagine the reaction from these folks if the Bierut bombing, the Pan Am 103 bombing and the shootdown of KAL 007 had happened on Obama's watch? There's nothing that happened on Carter's or Obama's watch as calamitous as these events which happened on Reagan's watch, and Reagan cut and run after the first event, did nothing after the second and third, and yet his worshipers have nothing to say about them. And then there's 9/11. . . . .
