Dum Pendebat Filius

A sniff in the kortevar, that what you cry for, yeled? A prert up the cull, a prang on the dumpendebat?

Every Dead Muslim is a Dollar in Your Pocket

You might have been wondering, readers: How does Sen. McCain propose to reduce the size of the federal deficit? Well, the McCain campaign has answered the question for us: All we gotta do is WIN THE WAR(S)!

The McCain administration would reserve all savings from victory in the Iraq and Afghanistan operations in the fight against Islamic extremists for reducing the deficit. Since all their costs were financed with deficit spending, all their savings must go to deficit reduction.

Yes, readers, that’s an actual quote from Page 4 of Sen. McCain’s official economic plan. PDF icon

What could be simpler? All we need to do is continue to hemorrhage money fighting useless wars overseas until the magical day arrives where we DEFEAT THE TERRORISTS, at which point we can put down both our M-16s and our checkbooks. Then we’ll be SAVING money, and we can use those savings to reduce the federal deficit. C’est simple comme bonjour, as those cowardly French surrender-monkeys say.

  1. Stram:

    Talk about a ‘flip-flop’ — I thought we weren’t leaving?

    That plan, to save all the money we’re wasting in our bogus war on terror sure isn’t a McCain idea. A lot of us said that way before they ran up their trillion dollar bill. Little late dumbasses!

    Some one must of told the old senile fool that al-Maliki wants a ‘timetable’.

  2. dumpendebat:

    What I find most ridiculous about this idea is the implication that there’s a working definition of “victory in the Iraq and Afghanistan operations” somewhere.

    How are we going to know when we’ve “won” in Iraq, or Afghanistan, or the whole “War on Terror”?

    What is “victory” going to look like, pray tell? What conditions will satisfy the definition of “victory”?
