Yes- I agree 100%! And yet we waste our resources in these fruitless invasions and empire builing? And meanwhile conservatives are told (yet again) that we must suffer "Big government" to fight this threat and compromise with the Liberals at home. And they are not exactely opposed to this war either.

Meanwhile conservatives are split, our culture decays and becomes even more hedonistic as the temporary benefits of Empire feed our unearned desires and undermine our very beliefs.

Empire is the death of every nation in history.

The problem here is that those, like yourselves, who are against the war have no plan for dealing with the mad Moslem who packs a suitcase nuke intended to level a US city or an anthrax vial intended to kill Americans in large numbers. These Moslem monsters, who represent the dreck from a decrepit, degenerate society, have been murdering Americans for forty years with impunity. They've already been targeting us, and will continue to do so, unless forced to stop. The "moderate" Moslems, if there even is such a creature, have shown that they have neither the will or the wherewithall to police their own neighborhoods. Those of us, like yourselves, who are blind to this reality may wish it were otherwise, but these monsters aren't going to stop just because your ilk would bend over for their depradations. In the spirit of good will and peace, of course.

Thank God we have a president who understands these dangers and is doing something proactive to deter the threat. Which, like it or not, is real and serious. And don't try to hide behind some sort of "libertarian" bullshit that obfuscates the truth of this problem. Those who adhere to your way of thinking are no better than America-hating Democrats. You all have a death wish!

A. We don't know if Iraq and Afghanistan are fruitless invasions or not -- it is a long term strategy and the results are not clear yet. B. It is not "empire building" -- the US has no desire to conquer territory (or oil), but to create a better (and hopefully safer for us in the long run) Middle East.
