Where do you stand politically?

The motion sensors that are on them where sold to a company in Iran yes. But the US government was quick to recall there comments about it being Iranian government related. If I made one and used radio shack parts does that make radio shack guilty too?, no

Yay, China can finally shoot down obsolete aircraft!

If you were to audit the pentagon it would fail miserably. And here our government is telling me social security might not be around when I'm at that age. We can keep paying for a war but at what cost to our future? Fighting one evil is just creating another. GOGO Mad Max beyond thunderdome future!

Ahhh, which supports my theory that we need business men controlling the books instead of lawyers.

We also just founds quite the amount of Iranian goods just south of Bagdad...IEDs and rockets.

Have a good one!:s4:

Speaking of paying for this war and the future of Social Security, did anyone see "60 Minutes" last Sunday? There was a really good piece on about our country's comptroller general, a man who has very scary things to say not only about our ability to sustain current war expenses but our ability to sustain Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and the new prescription drug program into the future. It was important stuff and something we all need to hear now. No one wants to address it on either side of the political aisle, but we're heading down a disastrous rode financially. Worth reading and watching!

Being conservative with military spending,is a liberal thing..all liberals want to shift money from the military,to their favorite,latest,greatest socialistic entitlement scheme,and leave America defense-less.

...

Now thatâ??s a silly statement.
I wonder how much % the US spends on attacking and how much on defending attacksâ?¦

And defending yourself in another country doesnâ??t count.

[harris7]

resolve of Americans to hold true to traditional American values,because of yer secular-progressive agenda's..that play into the hands of the enemie's of Freedom.

You do believe in freedom for all,right ?

Have a good one ...

Gotta love these little gems you drop.
True traditional American Values, well if you mean based on the founding fathers then they were dropped a long time ago. They were atheist pot lovers

The enemy’s of freedom. Oh man, do you mean the USA. I’m pretty sure it’s the country trying to control all the others. And more so their own citizens.

I wouldn’t call Americans free. Mainly because of how strongly your country/media structures your minds and thoughts.

can you define freedom. i think not

....we do need more weapons..until every last tyrant is vanquished,and after..to prevent the rise of more tyrants....

when is enough enough? this cold war mentality has given rise to the most deadly arsenal ever seen - and the most useless. we have the capacity to lay waste to the entire surface of this planet, to decimate any foe at the push of a button; but the only reason it would ever be used is for the destruction of all humanity. the use of nuclear force is such a despicable concept that everyone knows it would never be used except by a madman. that's not much of a deterrent when held in the hands of a supposedly sane society. to pay for the upkeep of such a massive and impotent arsenal at the expense of the wellbeing of our citizens is not only irrational; but an act of tyranny perpetrated by our runaway government, the likes of which we claim to be fighting against.

this is a new age in warfare. the debacle in viet nam showed the world that any invader's will to fight can be sapped away by patience. our new enemies are not nations with armies poised for invasion, but ideologies spread throughout vast regions. no amount of firepower can root out such ideologies, no bombs can eliminate poverty and desperation. with each strike we create more fuel to feed the fires of fanaticism, more martyrs to rally around and more scorched earth to fill our screens on the evening news. for every pro-american regime we create and prop up with our military might, three governments turn against us. the age of mighty armies is over and the world's strongest nation didn't seem to notice its passing.

the tyrannies we claim to be fighting against cannot be brought down with armies and the global freedom we aspire to cannot be enforced by them.

i would say war is spreading the ideologies

[Iplaybass182]

I would think eveyone here should be liberterian, we need more freedom.
