Its sad the state

It’s sad the state we’ve gotten to where, apparently, even firing incompetent executive branch appointees amounts to a win for the terrorists. Back in ’04 we were still enough of a superpower that only turning out a president amounted to a win for the terrorists. That suggests that the terrorists truly have us over a barrel. We are so intimidated by them that we have to hold on to a failed defense secretary presumeably forever. Or until there are no more Muslims with a beef with us. Whichever comes first. It’s cool that we’re standing so tall.
