The 1953 story annoys me. I’m fed up with ridiculous rationalizations like the 1953 overthrow. We need to overthrow the intellectual elite like bandow who always blame america first.

It’s old news. I’ll give you that.

Nonetheless, I’m not blaming America when I say we fought this last war the wrong way. A reprisal should be relatively short, it should take out your enemy, and it should reduce the capability of your enemy.

The nation building stuff was an over-reach. That said, GW Bush was my president. I voted for him. He made that decision, so I supported him and our troops. I always pray for their victory.

The problem with our system is that one president gives way to another and old policies get forgotten or set aside.

I blame the leaders.

Bandow is a know-nothing libertarian who persists in the delusion that if we leave the rest of the world alone, they will leave us alone. Stupid, and bad policy. But there is a small stubborn group of idiots who really believe this.
