America committed resources to these conflicts without obvious success. Now the money is gone and we don’t have any more.

When one finds oneself in a hole on should stop digging. Do you believe we have the resources to continue our foreign adventures? Having the fortitude for it is only half the equation.

Reagan brought down the USSR by forcing them to over commit. Are we to be brought low in the same fashion?

So you are saying if we just appease the terrorists more and more they will be nice to us. Appeasement does not work against thugs. How did the appeasement policies work for Nevile Chamberlain and England 60 some years ago?
Yes our national defense is expensive, but freedom does not come without a price. What did 9/11 cost? What did Pearl Harbor cost? Not just in dollars, but in lives.
Now I know your messiah thinks they were America's fault because we did not appease our enemies enough. Do you agree? Do you think appeasement is the answer to the terrorist threat?
