Gee, what's the point of wasting a trillion dollars a year on the
military (or close to a trillion) when we don't have the wherewithal to
give the Saudis a smack upside the head for something like this? I
mean, what would disgruntled Saudis do, crash airplanes into the new WTC?

Are you really suggesting we start another no win war in the middle
east?


Not at all. I'm merely wondering why we blow so much money on the
military when we don't the wherewithal to give the Saudis a smack upside
the head.


They call that an act of war.


So, we can’t use it and they know we can’t use, except on third world
countries in Africa and Asia and countries with no government at all. Do we
need to spend a trillion on that?


I don't think we need to spend nearly as much as we do but it is a
jobs program.

Two words we seldom see in the same phrase. It makes more sense
if you include "not".
Not Krause, brilliant
Krause, not brilliant
Krause brilliant, not

See what I mean?
