So strange....the lefts' answer for all non-left points of view...." oh red-state people are uneducated..."
As for military action....
Most of this nations wars have been fought under DEMOCRATIC administrations....
LBJ [Pres. Johnson an nutty new-deal socialist] escalated the war in Viet Nam...though he had absolutely NO intention of winning it...or of letting the troops win it....why...because his enormous ego wouldn’t let him be 'the first president to loose a war'.....try to figure THAT logic out.....
The Clinton Klan...couldn't wait to flex military muscle and [as we now know] Hillary was the big push behind the U.S. invasion of the Balkan States......Did we see huge public divisions created by THIS military involvement? NO. Were there huge protests....NO.....Why...because the idiotic left will support any war...so long as its a DEMOCRAT war.....Now that is HYPOCRISY at it's best.....

Seems logical to me. Hey Mr Clinton...what did Bosnia ever do to us?

This sounds like a thesis written by a graduate of the Rush Limbaugh Institute For Advanced Conservative Studies.

Truth is truth...why do liberals always try to shade the facts in grey?

This makes absolutely no sense. Can't Viet Nam and Iraq be equally ridiculous empire building ventures, both based on smoke and mirrors and scaring the general public into acquiesence? Open your eyes and take off the political blinders, guy. So one guy was Democrat and the other Republcian, whoop de doo.

Why not huge protests with the Balkan War? I think a much better explanation is that it was a smaller engagement that affected much fewer Americans directly and also had much smaller implications for the country should things go south...not too mention cost hundreds of billions of dollars less...so far. Not that we had much business going in there either.

Can't the U.S. defend itself....or its interests without it constantly being 'white-washed' as some sort of latent colonialist tendency??? [put down the Marx]
Nope...
As for smoke and mirrors...that would have to be, with out a doubt, the Roosevelt Administration getting the U.S. involved in the Second World War.
There is a case where we have U.S. and British banks to thank for essentially funding the Nazis rise to power and the rebuilding of the German war machine.
Oh...and thank the Turks and the Brits the Russians the French and the Germans for the mess in the near east...[middle east]....
All this is just the latest move in the 'Great Game'.......and to those not aware....the fight in the Balkans....[still a trouble spot...with U.S. troops and 'advisors' on the ground....all these years later....].....the trouble in Turkey...the wars in Palestine and Iraq....they are all related.....

I dont buy the whole Bush is dumb thing, I dont hate him becuse of that, I hate him because he is a corporate shill who only cares about the wealthy

That is why he was hand picked by the Republican party

I pity Bush sometimes, maybe he is to dumb to realize he is a prostitute for the wealthy, maybe he does have a concience deep down somewhere

I personally have never heard anyone say that "red state people are uneducated". In fact, I hear the exact opposite. Like your statement of "the idiotic left"

I don't believe the Balkan war got this country into the debt it is in today!

Oh, and can you please stop with old news.

Clinton hasn't been president in how long?
Gosh everytime someone on the right feels like they have to get defensive, they use Clinton. It's gettin old folks.

Its a tactic the right uses when they don't want to talk about current issues.
Talk about hypocrisy.

What did the last President do for the poor? Bush has spent more on social programs than Clinton did.
