    So far, we (as part of a coalition of nations) are doing nothing more than imposing economic sanctions on Syria. In your opinion, is that too much US involvement there?

  3. So Obama increasing the pressure on the Syrians is now an act of war? Since when is the US not at least a friend to those who demonstrate for freedom? Even Grover Cleveland, who was so anti-imperialist he wouldn't even annex Hawaii, thought we should be a friend to anyone looking for liberty.
    I mean, this isn't just taking it to an extreme; this is zany. Stupidly so.

  4. Democrats, faced with the tough choice of whether to help our allies defend themselves against the onslaughts that will certainly destroy them, or to continue the welfare-inner-city-reservation system that brings them those all important Black Votes without which they could not win an election... are doing the right thing [just ask'em] and dumping their allies all over the world!! Go Democrats!!

  7. Why is it our job to defend other nations ?

    Bushs Iraq war will cost over 4 trillion,4,000 American lives lost,over 100,000 Iraqi lives lost,30,000 American troops wounded,Saddam kept Iran in check now that he is gone warmongers are expecting The US to do it and warmongering neo cons like you just want to do it over and over and over again.
