How is this President Bush's or America's problem to solve? These are the same people who don't want us to 'interfere' in the affairs of 'sovereign' nations like Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, the DPRK (North Korea), Cuba, etc... Are we an empire, or a republic? You can't have it both ways! If we are to be the 'world's policeman' then we need to start collecting taxes from the rest of the world for the service we are providing. I am serious. Say a 5% worldwide (excepting the United States, of course) sales tax on all goods and services to pay for the US military & foreign aid that is currently provided free of charge. In return, all other countries may disband their militaries, and merely keep a gendarme/paramilitary force on hand, at a much lower cost.

I don't think this is America's problem to solve. I do think that America can impose trade sanctions against the countries that knowingly allow this to happen. We did this in South Africa and Apartheid was over within a few years (even though the system that replaced it isn't any better, it's just different).

How is this President Bush's or America's problem to solve? <<<<<<<<<<

Your question is one that I have been asking for years...

the answer, is that we have so much in America, that we
must now be forced to share it with the rest of the world.

Once you know the game plan, it is clear and you will hear the commies calling for our money all over the world.....

And they are getting it.

To me a liberal, democratic and a few other names, are nothing but communists.

All the information is out there, use Google, ask them the
questions that we have asked ourselves.

Ok, granny will get off her soap box.
