Note to Republicans---You've Got to Stand for Something

Posted on the 03 July 2020 by Morage @kebmebms

I got a reminder today when I saw that it was July 3. Bing notified us all it was, among many other truly notables, that it was country singer Aaron Tippin's birthday, 1958. I really didn't know who he was but looked closer and found he did this following song.

How timely and perfect, I thought, I think.
At a time when this President has not, to this day, made any attempt whatever to punish Russia, our known, very public enemy, for putting a cash bounty on our American soldiers heads, collectively and individually, who are serving our country in Afghanistan, what better statement to be made presently than "You're got to stand for something"?
These two lines seem especially pertinent, poignant and applicable for and to this Republican Party President and all in Congress presently:
You've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything You've got to be your own man not a puppet on a string
Ironically, very ironically, the Senate today passed this measure.
Senate sends Hong Kong sanctions bill to Trump
Get that.  They're sanctioning China today for not standing up for Democracy there. But even propose, let alone pass a sanctions bill against Russia for putting a cash bounty on the heads of our American soldiers in Afghanistan??
To date, not a word. Not a peep.

So. Republicans. Do you stand for our soldiers in the field? Do you stand with us, with the nation, or with your President who seems to be supporting Vladimir Putin and Russia? And standing for him and that country in this and in other ways, provenly.
We're waiting.
