I say we pull our Troops out and put them on that Mexican border where they're needed.
Then let N and S Korea fight it out. And no more Taxpayer dollars to either of them!
Fucking Clinton gives N. Korea $1 Billion of the Taxpayer's money and they build rockets and nukes with it! Shouldn't that POS be tried for Treason?

Would anyone like to agree life is not linear as we think, but in fact circular, history that is people and what they do always comes around again, if not in one place, it is another, but always the same pattern as if it is a lesson we just have not got the answer to yet. Perhaps if we see history as a lesson, we might actuallly evolve from our primitive mentalities and create better histories for the future people.

That's right! Haul that bastard in, then let's do a Saddam Husein on him. We'll get somebody in there with a cell phone camera so we wan watch him swing like a pendulum!

Yeah boy!

After that we can have an award ceremony, the 'Reagan freedom award for selling guns to the enemy' in honor of the guns sold to Iran starting a week after the hostages were released, and the 'Oliver North freedom award for importing cocaine to the US' in honor of urban businessmen.

But Clinton needs to swing!

I am just tired of this country thinking it has to be the world's policeman to protect itself.
How is it that we are constantly in wars while other countries manage to mind their own business and get along just fine?

OK, I see a short lesson is in order. "Austerity" means cutting off unemployment checks to people who are suffering. It doesn't mean cutting back on the billions we give to Blackwater, GE, KBR, and so forth.

We need a smaller, less intrusive central government. And by "smaller, less intrusive central government", I mean one that stations military forces on 1,000 bases around the globe, and ensures that every nation on Earth bend to our wishes, desires, and most importantly, financial interests.

One that establishes permanent war, so as to provide endless jobs for those employed in the states and districts of influential Senators and Congressmen.

This state of endless war of course, carries risk of retaliation, so therefore the smaller less intrusive central government must protect the American people by wiretapping their phones, reading their email, and at the slightest suspicion of errant behavior, whisk American citizens off to secret prisons where they can be subjected to torture- er, enhanced interrogation, all without the messy distraction of things like "courts" or "evidence" or "due process".

This globe-straddling superpower that enforces its will upon all the people of the Earth is exactly the sort of smaller, less intrusive government the Founders had in mind.

Had you been a regular Glenn Beck viewer you might have understood.
