"Wasn't trying to be mean."

Yours was a perfectly aimed shot at that phony "TJ." I love how you use his guy's (the real Thomas Jefferson) words to destroy his phony pacifist portrayal of #3. Good work! Sorry for the crude attempt at humor, but I kind of thought you rogered him rather thoroughly.

During the Viet Nam war, the American people did not fully understand the peace movement, and some fell for their propaganda. Well buddy, this is no longer the 1970s, Lyndon Johnson is not in the White House, and we have all seen what happens when the peace movement gets its way.

Good post

Hey Tex!!!! Have you seen the ping where our friend last night considers you and I "somewhat reasonable" and then suggest that we need some help understanding how it is?

Simply amazing

Whether or not you are interested in my opinion was never the issue. Your opinion, and your willingness (or lack thereof) to elaborate, is. Which you still haven't done, by the way, elaborate, that is.

I was simply trying to figure out why you seem to feel that Afghanistan was better left alone. Sure there has been innocent loss of life. But imagine the lives that have been saved by throwing out the Taliban - they murdered people daily, and made life a living hell for the rest. Can you honestly say that changing such a situation isn't worth the risk? If not, tell that to the Northern Alliance who had been fighting and dying for a better Afghanistan for quite some time before we went in to back them up.

Not to mention the fact that those responsible for murdering 3000+ innocents on US soil were hiding out there. Nothing like pointing out the obvious.

"Arab solidarity"

Bahahahahaha!! Good one! Forward bases? Didn't I hear the doom & gloomers fretting about that in Afghanistan too? That was a prescient argument, wasn't it? So was the nilly willy worrying about the cave fighting. We've got the entire country of Iraq to choose as a forwarding base. We can either seize their air strips or build our own. And they don't have the capacity to stop us.

Another Reaganite conservative takes a principled stand against an unnecessary invasion of non-threat third rate power Iraq. Thanks for posting this. Sorry to see you get beat up by all the warmongering neocons on this thread. They did the same to me and I'm not even a Libertarian. I'm an arch-conservative! How dare they call themselves conservatives...I don't think they know what conservatism is anymore. Its not bombing the whole world into submission that's for sure.
