May I ask if YOU have children who will risk death if we take out another dictator? In a few short years, I will have 4.

May I ask where in the speeches of George Washington or other founders we see it as a national purpose to take out dictators? We have also kept them in place, and this a fact that my Conservative friends do not like to acknowlege.

My only reason for using the word UN was to show our hypocrisy, if we based our policy on your idea of taking out evil people. It would have been the same point if I said we'd have to invade half the nations of the world in order to be morally consistent.

Why assume I don't love my country ever bit as much as you, just cause I deplore the losses in liberty and life we have suffered ourselves since the income tax was illegally started and Big Govt Socialist Democrats started remaking our nation in their faulty vision.

Since you said you'd pray, and I don't doubt it, please pray that a certain apt that a friend of mine owns in China will be able to be used for "smuggling" North Korean refugees out of China. They are being sent back to be tortured and killed and I"d like to see the Underground railroad work better in China so these Christians came make their way to freer lands.

Tell you something, constitution IS freedom but why hord it here, lets spread it around and if it means kicking a few arses along the way, so be it.

No kids available to be killed in a war. Myself, I droped of of college to go to Korea and have two 1st cousins killed there and did not make it to korea myself. I wanted to go and would not regreat it for one minute if I had gone. If I had a son I would encourge him to go into the service and fight if he was ordered to do so. I have two girls but if they had wanted to and do their thing in the service I would have been proud of them.

You keep tripping over the "moral purity" argument that we should treat all our enemies the same. This is a standard DNC talking point, and relativism at its worst. The only thing pure about doing the same thing in every situation and to every country is stupidity. Your suggestion that since we supported dictators in the past we must support one now is even more inane. Reminds of Emerson's,

"A foolish consistency is the hobglobin of little minds,
adored by little statesmen and philosophers and divines.
With consistency a great soul has simply nothing to do.

I have two children approaching draft age all too soon. We must take down Iraq presicely for their safety.

Sorry, I won't trade my children for Saddam Hussein.
