The Warmongering Republicrats
Well. Interestingly enough, I just got done being in a shouting match with my suitemates. My three roommates are all in my program. We honestly, and easily, have the most diverse room easily. I’m a libertarian, my roomie is a hardcore Democrat, my suitemate is a hardcore Republican and my other suitemate claims he is an independent.
The heated argument between me, the Dem and the Rep today involved war. While the Dem agreed with me that the Iraq War is wrong, he agreed with the Rep that we should police the world. He believes that we should enter Sudan. AND he believes America should police the world because we have a right to spread democracy around the world.
This kind of thought pattern is…..”f’ed up” to say the least. What it comes down to is that Democrats think we should go to war, but only if it’s not a Republican’s idea in the first place.
If Clinton would have started the second Gulf War, would they have supported it? Probably yes.
Let’s not forget, that the Democrats were behind WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam and Somalia (Clinton). Gulf War I and II were Republican skirmishes, both of which Democrats didn’t support. Don’t forget that the Democrats got the support from the defense industry this election.
So who is the anti-war party? Not Obama and his fanatics. Obviously not the facist McCain. But Obama, who ran on an anti-war campaign is not someone the american people can expect to KEEP us out of war. We should be prepared for the worst.
Darfur. Russia. Pakistan.
Who knows what will be first on Obama’s list?
