    Those stupid racist tea baggers need to be P.C. correct. Progressives are hilarious.

    tenth amendment. let the states rule. Like they are supposed to . Maybe it is destiny. We should be a beacon for the rest of the world with the way we live. Our way of life shouldn’t be forced down another countries throat. You can have individuals making it on their own, or a govt picking winners and losers. The history of govt. is not good. The states having the power is the key. Then the people can have 50 choices to move to. Best system in the world. Flawed? Perhaps. Perfect? No. Life is not for the perfect, but it is for the flawed. Choice is freedom.

    Our next war will be civil, sadly. Man’s lust for power will be the reason.

    Remember the Maine. Some say we blew it up. Spain was torturing the Cubans. I do think that some of our wars are fought by our politicians for good hearted reasons. Having said that, we should go back to our early history and learn from it. We did not get involved with Napolean. Why? We were neutral. Lies? Iraq did have WMD at one time. He used it. BUT not against us. Our treasure is spent on people that do not want it, when it comes from our military. Look at the polls. Americans want out of Afghanistan, yet we send more troops. Does not compute. Liberals and true conservatives do not want unprovoked wars. The progressive movement started the nation building under Wilson, and has been undertaken for the last one hundred years. I agree with the tea party. Starve the beast. Keep the money in the states. States can not declare war. If a state wants to be socialist, so be it. If a state wants limited govt, so be it. The feds should be limited. War powers act should be repealed. Maybe the tenth amendment will be our saving grace.

    I do not support the way we are fighting. You got me mixed up with someone else. I am an Iraqi war vet. I think our troops should be home, protecting our borders. Period. America can sustain itself, and be like George Washington. Neutral.

    In this case, it is for the defense of country. You have a choice. Capture on battlefield, or kill them on battlefield. our interests are American. If we capture, we must get info. to protect our soldiers. If America does not have the stomach for war, do not enter them. having said that, soldiers should never be used to nation build. That is a progressive idea, that has mostly failed. I will accept the Marshall plan as the one and only time it was good.

    Left message with Rubio, got through to Nelson and was told the message would get to him, Rep. Nugent will get the message. The message is, charge this guy or let him go.

    I agree with that, but you gotta charge this kid with the crime. Not charging him is against his rights. Charge him or let him go. Without being charged, his lawyer sees no evidence against him. I was not really paying attention to this story until yesterday. I was one of the hang em high one’s. But after looking into what is being done by the feds, I agree with the progressives on this one. Not many times do I agree, as I am Libertarian. I am calling mt congressman and Senators today. Message is simple. Charge him or let him go. From my perspective, the evidence is week, at best. The govt needs to show it’s hand. That is Manning”s right, and as a Libertarian war veteran, I will fight peacefully for his rights. It makes us all look bad when our govt does these things.

    They should allow sleep for at least six hours at a time. Who is making that allegation?

    You gotta prove the torture first. I am sure your version of torture may be different than mine. To me, taking out one’s nails would be torture.
