WHat?What a crock of shit.
Damned if we do & damned if we don't in the world of politics.
WHat?What a crock of shit.
Which previous POTUS had to deal with a fully capable nuclear NorK?
Oh ya, and my father fought in the Korean war, so this "CURRENT" dictator bullshit doesn't fly either.
I too wish we didn't have to be the world police, but sometimes it's necessarily forced upon us.
I got no problem with Trump mouthing off at N.K. I am also very suspicious about much of the media spin that has been surrounding the whole thing.WHat?
Damned if we do & damned if we don't in the world of politics.
But there is no way I can buy the last 20 years as us "being forced into being the world's police". "The USA has been seized by a criminal corporate cabal" sounds more accurate.
Not looking just at Obama/Hillary. And I am not looking at the idiot fodder like Benghazi, or Crimea (which I have a lot of questions about). I'll leave the obsessing over that shit for partisan simpletons who can't get any further than regurgitating talking points.Not a chance... Hillary's failures in Benghazi, Obama's "do nothing offensive" approach regarding Crimea topped off with his lame Iran deal along with empty threats about crossing the proverbially red line in Syria emboldened every nation that hates the USA, especially the paranoid little nutjob in brainwashed NorKsville.
I don't know all the facts, but there seems to be much more evidence for the USA being a nation that has embarked on wars of aggression at this point. The "War on Terror" is about as plausible as "Russian collusion/interference by way of FB ads".That "idiot fodder" was proof agreeing with your statement regarding "there is no way I can buy the last 20 years as us "being forced into being the world's police".
Like it or not, sometimes we are the only/best option.

Well, you and I agree more than disagree in your post. But this bit....I consider the War on Terror a fraud. From the top, not the boots on the ground. I don't believe the official version of 9/11 (or 7/7, and the Moscow apartment bombings for that matter).Bullshit!
What else would you call it?
War on Islamic extremists or domestic brainwashed extremists that can...???

First off, not what I want. I would love to be incorrect about this. It is one thing when you can discount something as a rumor, or perhaps foreign propaganda. Quite another when it is a matter of public record.Feel free to believe whatever you want.
That sounds a little like emotional blackmail, and it doesn't add one bit to wherever you are coming from.BTW, boots on the ground are filled with real living human beings, sons or daughters, sisters or brothers, fathers or mothers....
I made it very clear Mr. Boce, I consider the blame lies with treason at the top, and NOT with the boots on the ground, and for you to pull such a line out of your ass makes me wonder if your whole worldview isn't bankrupt, both morally and intellectually.
I am not any of those groups you mentioned."Boots on the ground" has always been a phrase I've despised, especially when used by politicians, media, and others that never served, or even by military officers that can diminish soldiers to such a degree.
Maybe I kneejerked with my response. You bringing up the service members like that smacked of the defense I heard of the Bush admins trainwreckery around 10 years ago, when objections were often pushed aside with the "support the troops" mentality. Apologies.If somehow my response made you feel like I was attacking you, I wasn't.
Indeed. And if it comes out that the USA arming terrorists wasn't a "debunked conspiracy theory" as rightwingwatch.org claimed, will we hold our own criminals to account?More Benghazi idiot fodder...
Abu Khatallah was convicted of two counts of conspiracy to provide material support to terrorists...
When you read about the Phoenix Program, are you proud of your country? When American military and intelligence personnel come forward and tell you similar things are happening again, does it bother you? Or are you too busy sitting there fuming like a pissy-britches because everybody won't stand for your flag at your weekly corporate NFL circus?
Flag protests, and many other hot-topic social issues are meant to distract us from real issues that are going on.
It's interesting in how conveniently a social issue crops up when the heat starts being applied to the Gov't.
Afraid Mr. Hanks is going in the bucket right along with Morgan Freeman. I can't help but wonder, does he really believe this, or is somebody pulling his strings? It is delusional. Like literally delusional.“I believe he called CNN ‘fake news."

"...as an American, it concerns me, because it’s monkeying around with our Constitution. It’s relatively obvious, I think, as what is trying to go forward. When you tear down these institutions to a level and say you can’t believe anything that is in any of them, that raises the stock of those agenda-filled other institutions and what not so that if you can’t believe them, well that means you get to believe some of the other stuff that is in these and so what is happening is that dilution, the dilution of the great … they’re throwing dirt and oil into a bucket of water. So it all becomes undrinkable after a while." ~ Tom Hanks
Hey now... Morgan Freeman's Bucket List was not only funny, but a damn good movie afaic. In fact, I like just about every movie he's been in.Afraid Mr. Hanks is going in the bucket right along with Morgan Freeman.
Oh he has always been one of my favorite actors. At least up until this role...Hey now... Morgan Freeman's Bucket List was not only funny, but a damn good movie afaic. In fact, I like just about every movie he's been in.
