Perhaps that sort of thinking is the result of reading a book or two without the discipline imposed by formal instruction, reading lists, and intensive discussion one might find in decent, college-level, liberal arts courses, eh?  I recall a college-level class in German in which someone posited that the reason Germany had been involved in so many horrific wars, including WWII, had *only* to do with that nation's desire to extend its geography to "protect" German nationals in other countries, and to create a buffer for the homeland. Well, of course, that was hogwash, and fellow was hooted in class for the day. I think it might have been the instructor who said that, actually. He was a German ex-pat, and though he was far too young to have been involved in WWII, he apparently took some of what Hitler had "speechified" to heart. In any event, I enjoy your dissertations...for a while, anyway. You never pointed out anything I said that was not true. Oh, really? Gosh. Well, then, let's post an example that shoots your comment about U.S. wars in the 20th Century/Democratic presidents to hell in a handbasket. How about...the *first* Gulf War, kinda planned in the Reagan misadministration and planned for real and executed in the G. H. W. Bush administration. How many Americans died in the first gulf war? What? Are you now claiming that the first gulf war doesn't count as a war stated under a Republican president because not enough Americans died? It is the excuse you guys use when anyone wants to bring up Kosovo, Haiti or Somalia. Well, of course, because in everything important, Kosovo, Haiti, and Somalia, and the first Gulf War are all equivalents in the non-critical loonytarian mind. You are the one trying to equate a 100 hour war in Kuwait with a 10 year war in Vietnam and a war in Korea that is still technically going on. We are simply in a cease fire. No I am not. I am simply pointing out the error of a previous comment of yours, you know, the one in which you claimed that *all* our wars in the previous century were initiated during the presidencies of Democrats. And please don't tell me that Jimmy Carter was responsible for that war. Was your red barn an 'error' that should be pointed out! Krause made a number of errors that contributed to his financial ruination. |
