The recent Iraq ISIS insurgents has made me wonder one thing about the liberal platform. Liberals want to see more nations have similar civil rights to America such as the issues with Muslim militants trying to kill if not capture Muslim girls who are actually getting an education. But yet, many liberals oppose going to war to bring about these rights as we've seen with Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria. My question is why is this the case. To me it sounds somewhat hypocritical. Maybe someone can explain that to me.
If your neighbor has a cold, do you cure him with a shot of malaria?

And yet that is the neocon platform that led to Iraq. The OP is dishonestly labeling that concept as exclusively a liberal idea and attempt to attack liberals, whereas it has actually been a tenant of US foreign policy for a century.
The OP needs a history lesson. This whole Iraqi omnishambles was W's great mission to spread democracy to the middle east..or at least that is what we were told in part...Given current history, to state that it is liberals that want to send troops into foreign lands to spread democracy is laughable.
He didn't mean to let that slip out...But it did. Tells you all you need to know..
