Right Wing Defeatists Respond to King Henry’s “ St. Crispin Day” speech.

“We happy few…” Who’s he kidding? King Henry makes a big deal about this distraction of fighting the French for some half cocked reasoning, but hasn’t done a thing to keep the dirty Welsh out of this country. Hell, he probably is Welsh! His poor handing of this whole half witted campaign has us slogging across half of France, and for what? Were no closer to winning today than we were when we landed in the god forsaken country. We should have more mounted Calvary like the French, but King Henry has his heart set on unproven archers from the backcountry. Is that really a strategy? When has that ever worked? We should just get back on our boats and get a fence built in Dover right away and forget this whole disastrous French Campaign.

And where’s our port security anyway? I’ve been waiting for the so called “sovereign” to make some statement about why he’s allowed the Moorish spice traders to have access to Dover and Plymouth, but he’s strangely silent on this outrageous oversight. Once again he has failed to deliver on his promises.

I’m voting for the House of York this time. I’m going to teach the Lancastrians a lesson they will never forget by withholding my support.

Happy St. Crispins day to all of you optimists out there.

You seem to like Shakespeare. Here's a little jingle to show my temerity:

For want of a fence, a border was lost... For want of a border, a country was lost... For want of a country, a culture was lost... For want of a culture, our freedoms were lost...

Sleep tight...
