Seriously, did you not pay attention to the Bush administrations stripping the military of every single dollar they could while funneling money to Haliburtin and paying the mercs in Blackwater much more than the regular soldier to take fewer risks? Check it out, the Republicans have ALWAYS voted to send folks into war and then cut funding whenever they can for veteran's family and health care. All the GI and VA benefits were Democratically based. Check out this link

it's dated, but repeatedly the Republicans talk about supporting the troups, while opposing any actual bill that supports them.

The left reads books and articles based on fact and history AND opinion, the right reads books and articles based on made up facts and opinion only (was anybody paying attention to the health care attack referring to Hawking?) . If you make up a good lie (Obama wasn't born in the US, there are death panels in the health care bill, or how about Cheney and his company Haliburton did not profiteer against their country in war time) and stick with it, the faithful will follow. Just like the Bush administration threw out any scientific or political realities in order to do whatever they wanted, the Republican faithful just throw out any reality that doesn't fit.

The apple didn't fall far from the tree. I can't blame the American public for electing Obama with an idiot like McCain to vote for. Had it not been for Palin, McCain's campaign would have lost by a true landslide.

And, as America has noted, the Republican party has been relegated to a slim minority of far right wingers. When your political party's registration consists of about 20 percent of the American public and still shrinking – compared to the Democratic party that is still growing, and then there is still the fastest growing block of voters in the nation: Independents/unaffiliated – it is a clear sign that the GOP are the extremists that everyone is already running from.

Political inclinations in the US, as with intelligence, are distributed in a way that can be depicted graphically as a bell curve. Most people are not extremists; most understand the need for a strong military. Obama did not achieve an overwhelming victory, particularly in view of his Republican opponents. I expected the win to be far more decisive. Huffington readers are extremists, often working as much against the middle as against the far right. Ditto for the far right, respectively, attacking from the AM airwaves. Now, Obama runs for the hills to find the support of moderate Republicans; his proposals, to gain ground, will increasingly sound centrist. Extremists need each other to produce what the framers of the US Constitution knew we'd need to survive: legislation mainstream Americans could live with, as long as it served some purpose. The signers of the Constitution didn't intend for the far ends of the spectrum to get along happily with one another, but they did hope the political wars would be fought with words and not weapons. Encourage debate, use your voices intelligently. The far left will fight the far right, inevitably. It is when the middle decides you serve no good purpose that you die politically.

Talk about ideology and kool aid, you are in deep, wow! They have you snowed. There is obviously no reasoning with you if you deny Reagan as one of the greatest presidents ever. By the way, he ended the Cold War, he didn't start any.

And what "illegal wars"? What, like the one you signed up to fight in? How was it illegal, it was voted for by Congress! And I don't know of any wars that didn't have "aggression". Should we have offered Sadam a cookie and said "pretty please don't gas thousands of people anymore??" Perhaps a thumb war? Thats not too aggressive. Grow a pair!

How are you infantry with a vagina? I feel sorry for your unit, I'm sure it's comforting for your fellow soldiers beside you knowing that you have no faith or confidence in the job you are suppose to be doing and your heart is not in the fight (if you have even seen any). Please do our military a favor and get out of your combat MOS, which I am positive you are no good at anyway. Go save kittens or something that doesn't require any balls, and leave the fighting to the men.

"People sleep peaceably in their beds because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf"-George Orwell

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same." -- Ronald Reagan

Freedom isn't free, and we have not had a terrorist attack since 9/11. The governments main job is to provide defense of this country, and republicans always see that it does. Check how many terrorist attacks happened under Clinton, and he did NOTHING! Pathetic! And you agree, disgusting.
