We don’t have to go to war. The U.S. government is getting more and more incompetent. The real issue now is to simply develop self-sufficiency as much as possible, so that when the government officials commit the foolish war move, we can work o rebuild the nation out of he wreckage and save lives in the process.

Of course we don’t, but it certainly sounds like half (or more) of this site is ready to follow Obama right into Moscow, just like the Germans with Hitler in WW2.

DEFINITELY self-sufficiency is one step. Another step is to BEFF-UP our military. If the Russians are building up, then WE BUILD UP. Instead of taking 25 years to deploy the next strategic bomber, why not 5 years? Why one carrier every 10 years (while decommissioning 2 or 3 in that time period) - how about a new carrier ever 2 year, to get to a 600 ship navy? SDI anyone?

Back to self-sufficiency - how about drilling in ANWR, Keystone, securing our borders? Yea, we talk about stuff like that, sometimes, but once the war drums start beating we follow this sick president right into annihilation.

What angers me is that we sit here with an old, burnt-out, decaying military while Russia has been building brand new, STRATEGIC WEAPONS for the past two decades and NOW it’s time to go to war??? I don’t know about you, but I’d actually like to have a chance of winning, if we have to fight them.
