I like the Rat line that says the money being spent in the war could be better spent here at home.

If there were no war that money shouldn’t be spent at all.

I viewed that clip a few nights ago.

My only words were, “My God...”

Baraq Husayn ibn Mahomet wants us drawn back to the “Hollow Army” days of the Carter years.

Wow, he should just say I will scrap the whole military. That is really something especially since we hit a target in space last week. He says he would not go after a star wars program? It already exists and works perfect.

Wait a minute! Money spent on National Defense IS spent here at home. DOD does not procure many weapons systems from foreign sources. The vast majority of DOD spending is for personnel, and while a large number may be deployed overseas, almost all of their pay and benefits stay right here in the US.

In short, “I will not defend my country.”

He will “cut tens of billions of dollars in wasteful spending” AND he “will slow our development of future combat systems”
...

Senator Barack Obama is a danger to the future of the nation. Not just a liberal. The man is a menace wrapped in uplifting rhetoric.

Money well spent...especially if we stay the course.

Look at Kuwait!

Oh wait....no one hears a solitary peep about the successes there since we booted Saddam out of THAT particular country.

BINGO!

I’ve never heard a presidential candidate say anything like it- and since 9/11...it’s madness.

My point was not that the money was well spent or not. As for Kuwait that success is only sustained by the current fight in Iraq.

My point was the ridiculous DemocRAT assumption that if the cash weren't being spent on the war, a worthwhile cause in my estimation, it should be spent on Rat vote buying social programs.

It seems that most of the canidates this year are too eager to tell us how much they will punish us for voting for them, don’t it?

Got ya...and indeed you’re right.

I also love how the hypocrats say we can’t afford the war and then make the idiotic leap that we can therefore somehow suddenly afford all these social programs, sheerly because it’s not W’s doings...or the evil Dick Cheney’s.

Or that somehow had we not been in Iraq, Katrina would have somehow turned out better.

ObamaNATION of ISLAM actually said we could have repaired every bridge and every road in this country with the money spent on the liberation of Iraq.

It boggles the mind how stupid hypocrat liberals truly are! It just boggles the mind!
