No, they won't. Nobody wants to invade the U.S. Nobody. Not Saddam Hussein, not Fidel Castro, not Kim Jong Ding Dong, not the Communists, not the Muslims, nobody. Nobody wants to enslave you.

That's what the Kuwaiti's thought in 1990.

If there's an annoying tendency among liberals (besides the desire to associate conservatives with Hitler) it is the simple unwillingness to address reality as it is, and not as they wish it to be.

The world is a dangerous place. There are bad people out there. Anyone who announces that he is unwilling to defend himself and is just going to sit around and think happy thoughts is targeting himself.

Do you really, honestly think that a global utopia of non-violence and peace is possible?

"That's what the Kuwaiti's thought in 1990."

I was talking about the U.S., not Kuwait. If Canada suddenly lined up 40,000 armed troops at the northern border (the way Saddam did in 1990), I would change my mind.

"...the simple unwillingness to address reality as it is, and not as they wish it to be."

This is another one of those statements I've seen on Liberal discussion forums (except it was targeted at Conservatives).

"The world is a dangerous place."

Let go of your fear.

"There are bad people out there."

Let go of your fear.

"Anyone who announces that he is unwilling to defend himself ..."

I am willing to defend myself. I support a strong military. I support the right to bear arms. But as I look around at the global political picture and count the number of threats to the U.S., it comes to... let's see... zero.

" Do you really, honestly think that a global utopia of non-violence and peace is possible?"

Yes, I do, as do millions of others around the world.
