if liberals they hate our soldiers, do they want America to just have no military while other countries keep theirs? if that isnt anti-American, then what is? do they want a weak one while others are strong, or one thats just as strong as others because then it would be "fair"? why do they cut funding for the military? if they think they are terrorists, they are only doing what their bosses tell them. you cant expect someone to quit their job and find another one, or to just not do what their boss tells them. oh and cutting funding wont limit the military's control, it would only help them fail wars.
if liberals, incuding the liberal Republican Henry Kissinger hate the military in general (any military in the world), then what alternative would they suggest? we dont need military to have war, we could have something similar to tribal warfare, so screw the excuse that military "causes" war.

I get the feeling that the liberal left democrats and their ilk want all americans to get undressed and lay down so that when whatever country wants to invade us, when they are kicking us and raping us and robbing us they won't hurt their toes on our belt buckles or anything.

Being anti a particular conflict is not being anti the military, nor the men and women who fight within the forces. Soldiers do not start wars, politicians do, and the troops fight them. There is a famous line from a WW1 war poet which depicts the soldiers dilemma, 'Mine is not to reason why, mine is just to do or die'.
Military for defence is a perfectly valid and reasonable political choice and tax cost. Fighting political or religious crusades against foreign states because their government won't sell you cheaper than market price oil, or because you don't personally like them, is illegal and immoral. This is George W & Tony Blairs crime, not your troops.
You wouldn't need such a large army if they were at home, and the war purely justifies the budget the Pentagon gets, and keeps those unneccessary troops off the Unemployment figures.

if this isn't last minute election day panic and grasping at straw's propaganda by the right, I don't know what is.
It is Bush who cut spending for veterans programs. Democrats love our troops enough to not kill and poison them with depleted uranium and be sent into battle for a lie and have their lives and limbs squandered when it is not absolutely necessary.Nearly all Americans love those in the military. republicans like the widespread propaganda that liberals hate the troops, hate their country, are weak, love the terrorists, are Godless, and have no moral values which NOTHING could be further than the truth. They love speading such lies.
People like you who make sweeping generalizations of 50% of the country (who are liberals) are just as guilty of propaganda as fox news and rush Limbaugh.

it incredibly is staggering how actual their brains are controlled. they have not have been given any evidence or examples, and that they do no longer care. As a team they are crammed with fake bravado, yet they are pathetic cowards in my view. I undergo in concepts seeing video photos of Hitler while i replaced into youthful and questioning, “how ought to every physique take that little Gomer with the humorous hair and stupid mustache heavily”? Now i know, in spite of the indisputable fact that it continues to be no longer common to have faith. It replaced into no longer common to understand why they rolled over quicker than a $2.00 hooker to offer up their Constitutional rights. Then i found out that they actually didn’t care approximately their rights as long as they have been given to be sure another American lose theirs. It consists of over to their faith additionally. they do no longer assume the Rapture so as that they could be close to their God. they seem forward to it using fact the belief-approximately staring in any respect non-believers go through provides them a sort of sexual exhilaration. the only distinction between them and their radical Islamic cousins is that the guideline of regulation stands of their way. it incredibly is the reason at the back of their consistent attack on the U. S. shape. they decide to wreck u.s.’s secular democratic republic and replace it with a quasi-theocratic fascist government based on the humanity-hating doctrine of their sadistic God.

I don't think anyone is against having a military. The problem is pick your battles. Do you have to fight every country on the map.
Do you have to be referee for the whole dam world.
I have to ask, if you are so much for war. why don't you enlist?
Why is it the guys who don't go always say they are Republicans.
Go sign up or shut up.
thank you well travel finally someone thinks a soldiers life counts.

how about we just don't start unprovoked wars? Would that be OK? Then we could spend that half trillion dollars on securing our borders? Would that be OK? Or how about when we send them to war, we give them everything they need, but we make contractors bid on the rebuilding, instead of just handing millions of dollars (unaccounted for, BTW) to our buddies' companies? WOuld that be OK? Or should we just stay the course all the way to hell?

It's an awfully big leap to go from a bad joke Kerry told about BUSH (not about soldiers) to "democrats hate soldiers." Democrats don't hate soldiers, but they *do* hate the way republicans use them, and throw away their lives for no good reason.
