The tens of millions of people who we have directly impacted feel slighted at best and are responding with violence at worst. and some really appreciate our efforts, Kuwait, Iraq, Afghanistan...wow...you know if you really think about it, we've liberated a ton of people in the last hundred years, just goes to show you that people don't really appreciate you enough... till you're gone...and we're going...going...ggggg


To write off any criticism of CIVILIAN policy as disrespecting a MILITARY organization that takes its orders from said civilian leadership is ANTI-MILITARY to the core as it's placing responsibility for those orders on the troops themselves.this is jibberish, it's Friday, have you begun drinking?


This is the basis for the neocon argument that infected US policy under Bush 43. The world "needs" us to lead them."neocon" is a racial slur

Man, that's some arrogant %$%$%$%$. In a world where 19 guys with box cutters can kill nearly 3 thousand people, one might think a little humility is in order. this sounds exactly like something Osama Bin Laden (oops, I almost said Osama Obama) would say, or have said

Or, we could just work to piss everybody off and claim superiority. Yes, that's a recipe for success...stop all foreign aid, that ought to piss em' off, and let em' fight their own battles too!
