That is where the money is.
Haliburton. SAIC. Custer Battles. Bechtel. Kellogg, Brown, & Root. Titan. Ageis Defense Systems. Blackwater. The CEOs of these firms donated heavily to GOP campaigns, and are now reaping the benefits.
We sold weapons to both sides of the Iran/Iraq conflict. What moral paragons we are! God must surely be most pleased that we have profited so heavily from the wholesale slaughter and maiming of so many of His children.

If war is waged it turns America's attention to something besides the hipocracy, greed, and trading away of Americans' basic rights in exchange for "safety, or security" or "a more moral society", that republicans seem to prefer practicing. The same way a quick change artist trys to distract a cashier with some other subject-just before the theft.

1. they are afraid so they seek protection.
2. They often live in rural areas and never meet foriegners, this creates fear of the unknown.
3. said unknowing fear leads to all sorts of imaginations about the boogeyman. (like they want to kill us all etc)
4. They fail to see other peoples as people with concerns and needs. it is some other group or society to them.
5. nationalism that any country cultivates, seriously for practical reasons, like willing to die.
6.

Because waging war is easier than talking.
Of course, they claim to be "Reagan Republicans", but even Reagan spoke to that "evil" Russia often.

There is a time for talking and a time for action... Saddam Hussein was the subject of diplomatic talks for years... If Iran is allowed to develop nuclear weapons, they will not be speaking with us, I guarantee that.

No one wants to "wage war," and saying that is a typical liberal lie.
Seek therapy for your liberal mental illness, and get out of America before your pathetic "diplomacy" toward people who want to burn us to a crisp destroys us.
What is it going to take to wake you up, having your loved ones charbroiled and looking like hamburgers at Burger King?
Ladies and gentlemen, do you see what we're up against and what might happen if voters who think like this poster (if he's even old enough to vote, which is doubtful) elect a Democrat? God help us.

There is no diplomacy with terrorists.

Diplomacy requires brains, which is hard for a moron who can't even speak English right. "Fool me once... urgh urgh..." LOL

They never learned from the mistakes that we learned about in high school history classes.

You're right. We should have a meeting with the terrorists and ask them why they are so mean to us. I'll bring the milk and cookies, and you bring the chips and dip.
