Reply #58: That's a shame, because it's, IMO, wasted effort.

I used it to highlight the fact that IF we don't lower our TAX DOLLARS for "War and Destruction" via the Military Industrial Complex, we will continue to keep within low level intensity conflicts.

It is an APT criticism of the ENTIRE SYSTEM. President Obama can't change it overnight. How in hell you saw my posts as Anti-Obama is way beyond me.

WE, must change the system ... it will take time and with the election of more LIBERAL/PROGRESSIVE democrats in position of power. Why? Because moderate democrats are neo-liberals and, in general, pro-war.

MY POINT: President has NO OPTION but to follow the Generals in the Pentagon until WE elect representatives less beholden to the War Machine.

I wish you'd spend half of your efforts fighting right wingers than attacking me. However, there's no need to LIE TO OURSELVES - we will send more troops because the MI complex is too large of a beastie to go up against without stronger representation within our Legislative and Judicial Branches.

Believe it or not, I am part of the democratic team. ;) :hug:
