Marsha Blackburn Will Not Fight the War She Starts

[Franklin Pierce]

...and neither will the VN chicken hawks.

Can you warn us what your next dotish thread will be about?

How does it benefit TN for our Senator to visit Taiwan? Not even taking the agitation of China factor into account. It's dumb and nothing more than a virtual signal which she and many on the right are supposedly against.

VM up in here acting like Joe Biden. I bet he his pants today and asked his wife if she did it

How dare you! Ms Blackburn has a distinguished degree in Home Ec. She clearly is not part of this “war on women”.

How are her sandwiches?

It benefits the US to continue occasional visits by higher level Legislative and Executive Branch folks, to show the PRC they don't control our diplomacy. I'm sure there is trade between ROC and Tennessee which concerns Senator Blackburn and justifies her visit.

Her visit, during this time of tension in that region, is absolutely not justified. It was a show and nothing more. She did nothing that could not have been conveyed by video call. She did exactly what JQA warned about in the quote below. Going abroad for monsters to destroy has become the motto of our foreign policy, which has been an ABSOLUTE DISASTER for the last half century. How is Afghanistan doing? Iraq? Libya? Ukraine? etc, etc.

There was nothing gained by her visit and there was surely nothing gained for the state of TN by her visit. She is a lapdog with a bad hairdo, who barks, plays dead and rolls over on command. As if TN doesn't have plenty of its' own problems currently without provoking the Chinese.

America does not go abroad in search of monsters to destroy. She is the well-wisher to the freedom and independence of all. She well knows that by enlisting under other banners than her own, were they even the banners of foreign independence, she would involve herself beyond the power of extrication in all the wars of interest and intrigue, of individual avarice, envy and ambition, which assume the colors and usurp the standards of freedom. — John Quincy Adams

Memphis vs Nashville War on BBQ

I recall the great Battle of Brisket. Won when Texas volunteers showed up in force with some mighty fine brisket. Remember the Rendezvous!
