Oh no.

Not this sh!t again.

Would somebody please explain to me what the US interest is here?

Especially given that we are already engaged everywhere else.

And reducing our military by leaps and bounds.

Let’s see. At the same time as we’re dead broke (with per-capita debt MUCH worse than Greece, which is about to go bankrupt even though they are willing to at least TRY to cut spending) we’re still spending worse than drunken sailors on stuff like bankrupt “green energy” companies’ CEOS’s (who just so happened to donate to Obama) .... BUT WE’RE BASICALLY DEFUNDING OUR MILITARY WHILE...

we’re engaging our military all over the Middle East to make sure that Islamist regimes take over what had previously been secular allies in the War on Terror...

we’re putting women in combat because we don’t have enough troops to handle the combat we’re in without putting women there....

we’re getting rid of most of our nukes....

we’ve agreed with Russia not to upgrade our missile defense system...

we’re reducing hazard pay and health insurance benefits for soldiers which the VFW has said will mean we can forget having a volunteer military any more....

we got rid of DADT, which was an incentive to keep sex out of the military workplace (and we all know that with both women and gays in combat situations, we’re inviting soap operas galore, in an environment where relationships HAVE to be trustworthy and low-maintenance, or lives and missions are jeopardized).....

EVERYBODY IN WASHINGTON DC HAS TO BE SUICIDAL TO WATCH THIS HAPPEN. I KNOW OBAMA WANTS TO DESTROY THIS COUNTRY, BUT IS THERE NOBODY THAT WE ELECTED WHO IS WILLING TO STOP THIS SUICIDE?!

It's an election year, we've had three Presidents in a row that like to involve our country in wars that they ostensibly claim are to liberate this group or that group (remember George W. Bush's crap about how Iraqis would view us as liberators, not conquerors?) or that are somehow protecting human rights.

Meanwhile these same three Presidents seemed intent on trampling our rights here...
