IMO, you're a bit too skeptical and cynical, and all to eager to blame America first, and "looking inward" is better reserved for the soul.

Personally, I can't stand the "look inward" crowd of appeasers. We at war. I thank God and my fellow thinking Americans for electing George Walker Bush, our Commander In Chief.

You know, conservatives in Britain supported getting rid of Saddam and they support the their troops in Iraq and they support democracy efforts there... but they are critical of how Tony Blair went about it. Should we avoid looking at how it was done because President Bush is a Republican?

But your basic point that I'm too skeptical and cynical has some validity - I try to keep those two character flaws in check but don't always do it.

I disagree that I blame America first... I care so much about the welfare of this country that I am often blind to the welfare of the rest of the world. I'm not interested in blaming America at all but rather figuring out to how to advance our cause.

I am talking tactics... We may have another war coming in Iran or North Korea and we need to handle it differently.
