If not wanting to piss away our blood and treasure in no-win "wars" makes me a Democrat, then I guess that's what I am.
I believe in fighting wars this way:
1. Go in with overwhelming force.
2. Fight without restraint until the enemy is brought cringing to the surrender table.
3. Go home.
Show me where we have fought like that since the Japs surrendered in 1945.
I apologize for being rude...not enough sleep.
I think with all nuclear capabilities, it is better to have less actual interaction than to be powerful enough to get what you want ‘peacefully’, if possible.
However if you are going to WAR...you have it right.
Enjoy the night.
In my #109 comment, the word ‘than’ should be ‘and’....typo from tired person...lol
We are on same side! :)
Curious...Why did you choose name ‘Eric Pode of Croydon. I realize it is book, which I have not read... is there a significance I should know from name?
