I'm okay with Joni Ernst going back to Iraq. She can take her new playmate, Scotty, with her.

The fact is, we are already back over there.

We're not arguing over whether we will go back, just over whether we will go with commitment or with lip service.

How did you derive that ignorance from my post? We should eliminate isis and take our weapons back. Again you can thank Obama.

**** it, let's just invade North Korea. They're a way worse country, and the best part, doing this risks angering both Russia (who is already a bit upset with the sanctions) and China, which would give of two other countries to invade, both of which have a massive military force. Imagine how much the defense contractors would make if we got to start World War 3?!

News flash ! We will be back over there and any Candidate that says or thinks we wont is either an idiot unfit to be Commander in Chief or lying. You can thank Obama.
That is of course if we aren't fighting them over here first. Better strap it up folks it is going to get real ugly by the end of the year.

Well look who we found who is willing to be the tip of the spear once the first troops get in Iraq to fight ISIS. I am sure you two have no problem pulling up your real boot straps and M 16 and fight with the front lines with the Marines.

Hey better yet, why don't you two volunteer to fight if you believe they are such a threat. Better that way than you demanding that my tax dollars be wasted for another useless war that will only make matters worse.

Any candidate that wants to go back is an idiot and isn't fit to be the commander and chief.

It's in their DNA (not actually fighting in one, of course, but sending other peoples sons and daughters into them)
Absolutely.

BTW, how many have been killed since obama has been elected?

I seem to remember that prior to obama, you could find the daily death count.....why can you no find that now? <<<< No need to answer....we know why.
Look, you wanted the war back in 2003, you got the war...even got to serve in it. The war ended up being a farce and a disaster.

There's no sense in going back so just leave it at that.

I'd prefer lip service. If you were smart, you'd prefer it too.

What's next?
Boots on the ground in Syria!

You do realize you really don't know anything about people on this forum right?
You have heard the old saying about assumptions right?
I stated a fact... we will be back over there no matter who is President. No where did I say that I think we should be or that I want us to be. It is the basic nature of the situation again thank Obama.

If a Republican is elected president, we will be at war within six months - or less. The GOP loves war and war money.
