If this doesn’t define the difference between Republicans and Democrats, nothing does.
War is simple to Republicans. Kill the bad guys, help the good guys, win the war. But as Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords (D-AZ) demonstrates, Democrats have other concerns, more nuanced concerns, more sophisticated concerns. Like whether we’re fighting a green war.
Giffords actually asked General Petraeus if, in light of the BP oil spill, the military is going to start using renewable energy at our Afghanistan bases to reduce the need for oil.
Even a cool, calm customer like Petraeus found himself at a loss for words.
Congresswoman Giffords, we salute you. You are the official IHateTheMedia.com Idiot of the Day.
