If we withdraw from everywhere its about like saying "Hey. Let the Democrats have it all..."

Simply put, that would be running away from the fight, ideological even.

Those people who say "America is a hegemon...those pigs...etc" what do we do? Let them continue on in ignorance about us? Should we let them have an uncontested slam dunk against us? Even when its not true? Like I said, Europeans want to be on top of things. They are the real root of the problem.

For me, we have to be who we are and discredit those types of people, and expose them for the ignoramuses they are.

The quickest way to discredit the Dems would be to allow them to enact their agenda with no one else to blame it on. Now THAT would be an unmitigated disaster, and I would die before allowing it to happen, but if it did it woould be most satisfying to see them realize that Ayn Rand was right after all. God, I love that book - ATlas Shrugged for those who don't know. The feeling I get when reading that is the feeling I am talking about.

Let South Korea blow "sunshine policy" at North Korea all they want. Then when North Korea comes across the border to loot, the only way communism can survive, sit back with a beer and watch, saying "I told you so."

I also think we should tell Europe to butt out. They get to have it both ways - criticize us, tehn join in to avoid irrelevancy and to share in the glory when it turns out we were right all along. Screw 'em.

Again, for some posters, I am not for abandoning strategic military bases. I am simply saying that South Korea is not a strategic advantage, having Japan, Guam, and other bases right there. We have options that will allow us to respond to the new threats. It is no longer in our interests to spend lives and money containing some old threats - like North Korea. Let them invade the South, and see if the Frogs or the UN want to do anything about it, with out us.
