In our blog \u201cStrategy\u201d we discussed how military campaigns should be conducted and how military strategy and tactics apply to politics.\u00a0 We should always attack the enemy where it hurts the most and, given that dictum, find where his most treasured plan is the weakest.<\/p>\n
Where should we begin our quest against \u201cfundamental change?\u201d<\/p>\n
The obvious answer is to attack \u201cObamacare.\u201d\u00a0 Obamacare is one of a plethora of Leftist attacks upon our freedom, but it is vulnerable to a tactical attack that could bring us the rewards required by our campaign strategic aims.\u00a0 Presently, the computer program being implemented to impose this political monstrosity upon the American public is a huge crack in the wall of the socialistic tyranny that confronts us.\u00a0 It is our tactical duty to attack this weakness with all the power, cleverness and ingenuity at our command.<\/p>\n
So what is this greatest weakness?<\/p>\n
A brilliant computer program analyst that I know points out that the Obama Care Program is a classical example of what information technologists (IT) call a \u201cBlack Swan.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/b> \u00a0\u00a0In this context, a Black Swan is a program that is a total flop in every way.\u00a0 The Obamacare program is, among other things, inaccessible, inaccurate, untested, full of bugs, unprotected from hackers, hugely over complicated and generally unmanageable, not forgetting to mention hugely unpopular.\u00a0 Its programmers have made it almost impossible just to gain access to it, thereby delaying the shock that will confront the prospective user when\u00a0the program can finally be seen for what it is.\u00a0 A Black Swan is such a serious problem in the computer industry that is has the potential to bring the company presenting it to bankruptcy and in this case this Black Swan could possibly bring down the Democratic Party.\u00a0 The judgment of the IT community is that the best cure for such programs is to scrap them and start over. \u00a0\u00a0Of course, the government, for political reasons, will not scrap it, for that would be admitting incompetence, the tactic of its managers will be, as always, to blame third parties for its failures.\u00a0 My analyst friend assures me that the Obamacare program will never be without bugs or \u201cglitches,\u201d so many in fact that it can never be satisfactorily repaired. \u00a0 You can make book that it will not be ready for implementation by March 30.\u00a0 But, by chance on long odds, if and when it does work, the American public will see the program for what it truly is \u2026 the first step in totalitarian socialized medicine. When this is understood it is probable that popular disgust will turn to true outrage.<\/p>\n So how do we take tactical advantage of the situation?<\/p>\n The Republicans and those who treasure the American Republic must fight it by continuously pointing out its basic un-Americanism and relating the free market alternatives to it.\u00a0 This is a genuinely primo chance to start a national debate over the advantages of freedom and individualism over the discredited darkness of tyrannical socialistic collectivism.\u00a0 \u00a0Enlightened leaders have already begun.\u00a0 One of our Generals, Ted Cruz, made us aware of the danger and declared political war on this unworkable monstrosity, although many lesser generals and much of the RINO trained officer corps remained unconvinced.\u00a0 General Cruz and his staff were overly enthusiastic and made a frontal charge to overthrow the demon by demanding immediate repeal.\u00a0 When they failed, the \u201cmoderates\u201d of the officer corps suggested that the roll out of the demon be deferred for a year.\u00a0 Some of them were ready to capitulate completely, but wisely decided to retreat to prepared positions, the trenches of political discourse.\u00a0 Of course, mistaking tactical withdrawal for victory, the advocates of the demon refused to defer implementation, ridiculed the Cruz forces and knowingly plunged ahead with their Black Swan, which they already knew was not ready for prime time.\u00a0 We are now at the crucial point to initiate the proper tactics, guided by our campaign strategy, to do the demon in.<\/p>\n How do we do it?<\/p>\n We can hope that our political Generals and enlisted troops will understand the tactics and bring the campaign to a happy conclusion, as the fate of the American experiment may well rest upon their valor.<\/p>\n In our next blog, \u201cThe thrill of victory and the agony of defeat,\u201d we will make some suggestions on how to proceed \u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In our blog \u201cStrategy\u201d we discussed how military campaigns should be conducted and how military strategy and tactics apply to politics.\u00a0 We should always attack the enemy where it hurts the most and, given that dictum, find where his most … Continue reading
