Is it really not enough that the US spends more on military the next 10 countries combined? More than China, more than North Korea even.
Have none of these stodgy conservatives ever stopped to wonder WHY the US has to spend so incredibly much on military?
Much less stop to consider that the more the US stomps into other countries for things that don't concern them, the more enemies it will make, thus the more that will need to be spent. In lives, money, and energy.
Only in the US and North Korea would so many prioritize the ability to needlessly invade other countries over the health, education, and wellbeing of its own citizens on its own lands.
What is with you throwing the word "Muslim" around as if every single American that happens to be Muslim is a criminal in your eyes. Are you are a religious bigot? Do you actually know any Muslims, cause I live here in Philadelphia (your location) and there are loads of them. Why don't you walk up to one of them tomorrow and tell that what you have been saying on here as a keyboard warrior.
I never said American Muslims, I even put "radical Islam" in my post---try reading next time instead of spewing PC garbage and trying to twist my posts. And yes, I know a few Muslims who aren't bad, but I've also had a few negative experiences with them.
No he isn't.. and hopefully you guys will shut up about Obama being soft or not defending America. I voted for Obama twice and this military crap is frustrating. My brother graduated from the Naval Academy so I'm not against the troops. However, this constant war mongering needs to stop.
After we fund rebels to fight ISIS we will have to fight those rebels who will be called ESES or some made up acronym and it will go on and on and on...

This is where you guys go off the rails in your dream world that we can just "bring all the troops home and mind our own business". When Obama campaigned on such nonsense many of us said it wouldn't happen because hope fully when he got elected there would be some adults in the room to teach him the reality of such nonsense. Bush 43 predicted exactly what is going on right now if Obama attempted to appease those campaign promises. It is not Warmongering. It is stopping evil.
So I'm sure you are for closing foreign bases and no longer being world policeman....right?!? After all it's called the Department of DEFENSE!!!!
No, that is a dangerous and expensive notion.
