Mark my words, there will be a war in the Middle East soon - possibly within the next year.
There’s already a war in the Middle East - Afghanistan. Did you forget about it? It’s been going for a decade. You now want us to get involved in another one? Haven’t had enough?
You want more Pentagon spending to pay for your next middle east war? Where will the money come from? Higher taxes or more borrowing from China? And how much money will we need?
I’m tired of “small government” conservatives who favor big expensive government in the form of endless foreign wars.
Who cares... We don’t have a CIC anyway. The less the muzzie has to wage war on behalf of the Islamic countries the better.
We can all just sit back, swipe our EBT cards, wait for that Social Security Direct Deposit, and head off to the casinos.
I am glad you mentioned Social Security. That seems to be the only priority for many so-called "small government Conservatives" today.
They would rather see our military taken apart, and the men and women who put up with 5-6 deployments back to back suffer, than forgo even a smaller increase to their COLA increase to their checks.
Did you read that article? It is true, we cut Defense by $487 Billion before the $600 Billion sequestration cuts were levied upon it.
There are few Ronald Reagan Republicans any longer, who understand that our economic stability is directly tied to our world standing and our military strength. Instead, we have become a nation of short sighted Federal check collectors. They will rally with every fiber of their being about the "other" person's entitlement check, and puff themselves blue when it comes to protecting their own.
