Will Ronney/Ryan start and lose a new war ?

This has to be the question you ask yourself every time a Republican is running for the Oval Office.

That and how many trillions they'll bleed the nation's treasury for while losing it.

Probably.

Like Cheney said: "Deficits don't matter."

And he accidentally told the truth of Repub belief. They unbelievably run up the tab, and it ONLY started to "matter" when Barack Hussein Obama became President.

It was their way of hanging the "Bush albatross", and their own fecklessness, around Obama's neck, instead of their own.

Ryan, the dude that's spent his entire adult life in CONgress, we're finding out, is neck deep in it.

The Obama re-election team was/is prepared for all this shit.

GOOD!!!

I don't think a majority of Americans are in a frame of mind for any more wars. And that might influence how they vote.

Göring: Why, of course, the people don't want war. Why would some poor slob on a farm want to risk his life in a war when the best that he can get out of it is to come back to his farm in one piece. Naturally, the common people don't want war; neither in Russia nor in England nor in America, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy or a fascist dictatorship or a Parliament or a Communist dictatorship.

Gilbert: There is one difference. In a democracy, the people have some say in the matter through their elected representatives, and in the United States only Congress can declare wars.

Göring: Oh, that is all well and good, but, voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in any country.

The United States congress has not declared war since Dec, 1941. Everything since 1945 has been a "military action"...11 years, now in Afghanistan, Iraq lasted 9 years. So much for "only Congress can declare war".
