Prevent defense will just prevent a win. This is the first time in my life I feel like we have the ball.
If it wasn't for the "refs" (media) trying to fix the game I'd say stay on defense...but that's not the case.
We need to keep our foot on their throats, because trust me once we get to the last yard in the longest mile...we'll still have the hardest yard; the last yard.
And just as importantly we need to make sure we don't make any unforced errors.
then the game starts over, then the game starts over, then the game starts over ~ since the time of the pre-dynastic pharaohs. This is the struggle of the human condition between the powers (chiefs, kings, emperors, priests, and family matriarchs and patriarchs) vs the people.
That is why it is never taught in the gubermint schools. This morning Bannon said how right after the Declaration Of Independence was signed the British expeditionary force came down from Nova Scotia and landed at Syracuse. Washington's great achievement was to hold the army together as we lost battle after battle until we won. He also mentioned that Jefferson said after the War of 1812 that the importance of building our own ships and weapons and becoming an economic powerhouse was the only way to maintain our independence. Side note: after the War of 1812 there were a large amount of people who said we should have gone on and taken Canada.
Swabbie, in respect to your comment re. the historical significance of the War of 1812 and the necessity for a strong navy, Ian Toll's magnificent SIX FRIGATES illuminates that part of our history perfectly. I re-read it a couple of times His trilogy which subsequently detailed the history of the US Navy, from its beginnings, through WWII is equally worthwhile.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom - go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!
Yes. We need to stay on offense.

Ryan, perhaps because I'm a lot older than you I realise that there will always be that "last yard".

Exactly. Well said.
And our Founders incessantly warned us about this.

Thanks.
The conventional army loses if it does not win. The guerrilla wins if he does not lose.
