War could be the right answer.
About once every 200 years it could be.

So - you better make a hell of an argument it is now.

Now, in the 1940's the childen of our presidents fought such wars.

You know - TRR's kid commanded at D-Day, FDR's kid flew Joe Kennedys wing the day he died, too.

Show me the arguement - or shut up.

Joe

1. War IS the answer.
What is the question?

Who commands what sovereign right to enslave in asking?

3. Sweetheart - that is a great name.
I only say -

War CAN be a answer, rarely.

And if one imposes it as an answer - you better be able to back it up.

So it can be a response - under the most extraordinary circumstances.

Not here though,

Joe

4. i happily borrow the moniker from existance
until time asks me to return all the library cards.

It is not an answer in my lifetime, to no thing on this earth,
is overt war and force a solution except in the minds of infantile
teenage criminals who are so reality deficient they edit CIA internal
memos to fit their fanciful universe of disney crabs and happy mermaids...

Then "asylum" is the answer, but certainly not war, no, no, not war, no, please please no.

2. Too many R's in Teddys initials -
TR- not TRR.

My typing is just bad.

6. Answer to what?
Are there generic answers that apply to anything, or is there something in particular that we are to show war is or is not a good answer to? As it stands, this sounds like babble.

9. But there are standards -
Are there such answers? - well, buddy there are.

Generic answers - go F*ck youself.

The question is if one could show greater cause - a 200 year cause - cause if you can't - well, then our kids should NEVER die for BS -

It is JUST like that.

And they ARE dieing.

Joe

The only sensible things to fight over are food and women.
