"...And a Sniper Shall Lead Them".

Despite Liberal outrage, the movie,"American Sniper" has now grossed over 200 million at the box office .But why? War movies have been a Hollywood staple since the days of silent film, and movies like "Zero Dark Thirty" , and "The Hurt Locker" have addressed the war on terror and have  had decent box office success as well. But, what makes this film different? Why has it had such critical acclaim and monetary success despite the condemnation by leftists such as filmmaker Michael Moore and Democrat Party Chairman Howard Dean? Because, it speaks the truth. It shows the war on terror and the men who fight in it, not as Hollywood wishes them to be, but how they really are. American Sniper's main protagonist is real life Navy Seal Chris Kyle , a sniper par excellence who was nicknamed, "The Devil of Ramadi ",by the terrorists he targeted. Kyle lost his life in 2013, at the hands of  Iraqi war vet and former Marine Eddie Ray Routh who was supposedly suffering from PTSD syndrome. Kyle and a friend,Chad Littlefield had taken the troubled vet to a shooting range in an effort to bond with the man and help him overcome the demons of war that all veterans must carry with them. Kyle lost his life , not on the battlefield, but back home, trying to aid a fellow soldier . A tragic end for a man who had devoted his life to protecting America, protecting his fellow soldiers , and protecting freedom. This was the lexicon that Chris Kyle lived by , and it forced him to complete 4 tours of duty in Iraq, and ironically, caused him to lose his life after he was retired from the Navy and working stateside as a security advisor for Craft International , a company that Kyle used to help vets like himself, adjust to civilian life and overcome the demons of war .He reached out to help a vet , like he had done so many other times ,in war, and at home,.. and the vet killed him. War, you see, never ends for men like Chris Kyle.The war goes on , whether they want it to , or not.
The movie American Sniper portrays Chris Kyle as a straight shooter, with a sniper rifle, and with his mouth as well. And, when it came to the Iraq war, this former Texas born Rodeo Bull Rider pulled no punches and told the truth . It was a truth that America needed to hear , a truth that seems to be all part of the awakening that America seems to be experiencing right now. The Iraq War was not a mistake .It was justified. Saddam Hussein was a terror sponsor who paid , trained, and gave medical treatment and shelter to AlQueda terrorists .Saddam Hussein did have the Weapons of Mass Destruction that threatened the world. In fact, most of them have been uncovered by ISIS , who has taken control of the Iraq that was abandoned by President Obama. Chris Kyle's 160 confirmed sniper kills were also justified, since he was targeting terrorists who were trying to kill American Soldiers ,not innocent women and children as the left would have us believe.
The war was right, this film seems to say. Our soldiers sacrifice was right, and necessary to stop a terror sponsoring madman who did indeed have the WMD's that he used on his own people, during the first Gulf War.
Bush and Cheney were right on their anti terror strategy and enhanced interrogation program.The Bush Doctrine was right .You do indeed take the fight to the enemy, and strike at them before they can strike at you, and fight them on their own soil, so that you don't have to fight them on American soil. The Patriot Act was right, and gave us the terror intel we needed to keep America safe . This was the strategy that kept us terror free for the entire eight years of the Bush Presidency after 911.
It worked. It was right. All of it. The war was right, period. And now, this film is right. The film American Sniper, is just a symptom of a growing movement across America , a new awakening of patriotism that has seen the disaster wrought by 6 years of Democrat rule. 6 years, plus the last two years of Bush as well, of tax and regulation hikes and a systematic weakening and downsizing of our economy, and military.
The American people woke up to the truth . Not just the truth espoused by Chris Kyle in this film, but the truth about America itself. They saw that every State in our union controlled by Republicans were prosperous , while Democrat controlled States were bankrupt . They saw a strong economy and military under Bush ,..while both withered under Obama. The American people now see who was right, and that is the reason the Republican Party has its biggest majority, its greatest victory ,in both Houses,..since the 1920's. They saw the State of the Union Address , where our President claimed the Nation's economy  was prosperous, and growing, our terror enemies on the run, and not Islamic,..and Global Warming was the biggest threat to our nation , ..a threat that can only be fought with more tax dollars from the pockets of hard working Americans.
They now know  who really grew the economy, who really supports our military, and who really puts  fear in the hearts of our enemies.
It's the Republican Party. It always was, and it always will be.
That's why Speaker Boehner, and not President Obama, invited Isreali Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to speak before Congress in March, on the Iran and Al Queda threat.
That's why all new entitlements President Obama insisted on during his State of the Union Address will not become reality.
And, in the end, that's why "American Sniper" has made over 200 million dollars , despite sniper-like twitter attacks by the liberal left.
The American people, like Navy Seal Sniper Chris Kyle, now see the truth. And this movie's victory at the box office is just part of a larger victory  by the Republican Party in general.
The line in the sand,..has been drawn.
We the People have now ,finally,..chosen a victor in the battle for the political soul of the nation, and it is the Republican Party.
It had to be this way.
For, there could be no other victor, once America accepted and embraced the truth the way their new hero , Chief Petty Officer Chris Kyle did.
Chris Kyle always went into battle carrying a bible. He was a Christian who lived by the words,"The Greatest Gift a Man can give, is to lay down his life for another"
Chris was always willing to make this sacrifice, for our nation, ..and for freedom.
Can We the People, fresh from our greatest triumph ,..be willing to do less?
