The one thing I really don’t like about the current administration is it’s like they are pretending we are not at war. The fact that America is fighting a war should be front and center on everyones table.

And yes, the rich need to pay for their wars!

Where did you get the heading for this article? You have one sentence regarding the RNC and the words “War Dodging Chicken Hawks” is not mentioned. If you are suffering from PTSD and are given 100% disability, why should anyone listen to you, let alone be a mentor. If you are 100% disabled with a mental/emotional condition, she should not even be involved with advice or help.

Yeah. Drones are on duty as we sleep. I know two operators. Thanks Fraser. I write about no mention of war and the world remains mute. I think I will vote for canceling the election and force them to legislate. We need deal makers not ideologues and a Spin and Marty show. You gotta finish your homework before going to the drive in. All economic cycles throughout history are in the range of 8 years. So is not this 4 year mutual masturbation game ridiculous? ( If Clint can be risque, so can I, lol!) I guess my voter registration that reads non-partisan since my seminary formation days now tags us as the “persuadeables” I am not persuaded by anyone at this junction. And the job issue is just ludicrous. Between 2000- 2008, 28% of our workforce was exported overseas. They are not coming back. Lets call Caterpillar and ask them. No computer, not one brand is made in the U.S. Not one set of underwear is from any American textile company.This is never going to change. A global economy is here and we did not prepare for it…period. We have allowed ourselves to be morphed into full time consumers.The rest is a charade

IMO, the worst president ever is still holding the office. It’s all a matter of who you believe can best spend the money you earn(Assuming of course you in fact are one of us working jerks), are you better able to decide where your money is best spent, or are the liberal Washington bureaucrats better at it than you? Obama is spending everyone’s children’s and grandchildren’s money like a drunken sailor on shore leave in a house of prostitution. The educated electorate needs to rein him in and take away his American Express card while the country’s credit rating is still in the B range(Before Obama it was always triple A). Better yet, let him seek employment where he isn’t supported by taxpayer dollars. He needs an education in how real people make their money.

How on Earth can the Republican/Tea Party nominate a career corporate
criminal and tax cheat for the highest office in the land? The only
house he should be in is The Big House. Will he finally reveal tonight
how he was able to stash away a quarter of a billion dollars without
paying federal income taxes for nearly 15 years? No, he will blame Obama
for not completely cleaning up after Mitt’s hero, George Bush Jr. By
the way, where are they hiding Bush Jr. these days? They’re not ashamed
of the Worst President Ever, are they? Because we know they have no
shame.

great article! McCain does want to involve us in conflicts that are maybe we should not be. As with Syria there are players in the region that can supply the rebels with lots of equipment. And of course how do you know that the CIA isnt already? I have found on the Web photos of knocked out Syria tanks that have been blown to bits. You dont do that with RPG-7’s My guess is that there is some heavier weapons out there that nobody is talking about. Guess where the rebels got them???

You are so correct Ado. But lets not go to far with the numbers game or we will be like Westmoreland! I am a Vietnam Veteran also. Statistics show that Quang Nam province where I fought in the Marine Corps, had a 50% casualty ratio for grunts. Indeed the numbers were high. But as you point out the topic is one of ‘arrangement” Read the document, “The World Effectively Controlled by the Untied Nations,” a 1962 State Department-commissioned study written by Dr. Lincoln P. Bloomfield of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. We have been slavishly following this modus operandi of “wars of assimilation,” ever since. Chalabi in Iraq juked the entire western world with his phony “iraq National Congress” INC defectors. Not a one was real. All paid actors. Columbia Journalism Review outed him, and all the major media outlets retracted their stories. Not a word, and worse yet, no remembrance of this with our epidemic national amnesia for accurate history. Yet just like the Gulf of Tonkin incident, now documented by retired Admirals, to have never happened, we continue to provide freedom fighters for the world. Might someone help us some day? Or is our war machine too profitable to want allies? King Koch has now replaced King George before the Revolution.

McCain never met a war he didn’t like. He complained loudly about Obama “only” allowed aircraft into the Libyan civil war, he wanted boots on the ground. He would have long ago bomb, bomb, bombed Iran and doubt have us in a war with them. He’s outraged were aren’t in the middle of the Syrian civil war. Thank goodness he wasn’t elected President.

It’s is long past time we stop acting as policeman for the world, and do some nation building here at home.

McCain has been pontificating that Obama isn’t bombing enough people.

“How many men died in Afghanistan this week?”

Well to put it in somewhat of a perspective, not near as many as died during the average week in Vietnam where in less time than this latest war has dragged out, more than Fifty-eight THOUSAND(58,200+) Americans died in a war that was begun on a bogus Gulf of Tonkin resolution perpetrated on the U.S. public by President Lyndon Johnson(D). The politicians may have changed names and the parties in power may have changed, but the end results remain very similar.
