When will more of us figure out that 95 percent of GOP politicians and 100 percent of Dems are all putting on a pretend show from domestic issues to foreign policy with fake limited wars.

Countries like the US and UK can’t fight a real all out war as their militaries continue to get cut in size and strength.

McCain’s toughness in foreign policy and defense is to make sure taxpayer dollars go to his defense contractor friends but not to fight and win any kind of war.

Some question the necessity of our military committments and others detract the patriotism of those who question military activities against ISIS or Vladimir Putin.

After all the effort and casualties in Afghanistan there are ‘peace talks’ with the Taliban.

Why fight ‘wars’ when the endgame is negotiating with the
‘enemy’ as appears to be a pattern we saw in Vietnam and now in Afghanistan.

You are so correct.

Do not start a war unless you want to win it and win it quickly.

Have a clear exit policy before starting a war.

And finally, never start a war on foreign lands with borrowed money from countries like China.

Our children and grand children are going to despise us for leaving them a national debt much bigger than our GDP. They have no economic future with the ever increasing interest on national debt.
