    Yup. Constant War grows the War State and the Central Government. The Central Government growth comes at the expense of our Freedoms. Our Freedom and Liberty requires that we live in peace. Wars come when we are aggressed, and we fight them, in order to return to a State of Peace. This state of constant war is what needs to change, that is why I refused to vote for Hillary, or that guy from NJ and even Rubio went Neocon a few times, but that may have simply been the flash cards he had been told to memorize before that debate.

    The current state of war in the ME is because of the GWB.
    Something tells me... you voted for him.

    George S. Patton was a narcissist.

    Barack Obama entered the White House being a narcissist. Eight years later Obama left the White House having an inferiority complex. :wink:

    It's early. He is doing fine. The media hasn't accepted the results of the election and is still pushing this fantasy that he is suddenly going to disappear from the presidency, but we all know that the Media is bit short in the marble department. Journalists drink too much, are bad at managing emotions, and operate at a lower level than average, according to a new study.

    Journalists' brains show a lower-than-average level of executive functioning, according to a new study, which means they have a below-average ability to regulate their emotions, suppress biases, solve complex problems, switch between tasks, and show creative and flexible thinking.

    That's science, you can't deny science.

    Don't hold your breath. No-one is going to discount the military power of the US. It's evident. But with power its how it's used that counts. To a large extent Bush the 2nd exposed the limits of US military power as it is applied in the real world. The country with the world's biggest economy and strongest military power also needs to be intelligent enough to work out how it should act in the world, given that great power. Do you want the rest of us to fear the US? Many countries might say they should line up with China in that case, may as well, given the US offers only fear. If you want the rest of us to respect the US then I'm all for that, but as we know, respect is earned, not merely granted. The US may be great again. But I doubt it. I suspect the US, like great powers before her, is in a gradual decline. I say that with sadness because the next one on the starting block for world power is China and I know I don't like it. Don't piss of your allies, even minnows like us in Australia may be helpful if and when teh time comes.

    Most of that is coming from the Repugnant ones you so eagerly support. You live in a Nixonian fantasy.

    Pseudoscience, and, like Trump, a fraud.

    No, only another example of right wing ignorance:


    stoop 1
    (sto͞op)
    v. stooped, stoop·ing, stoops
    v.intr.1. To bend forward and down from the waist or the middle of the back:

    bow 2
    (bou)
    v. bowed, bow·ing, bows
    v.intr.
    1. To bend or curve downward; stoop.
    2. To incline the body or head or bend the knee in greeting, consent, courtesy, acknowledgment, submission, or veneration.

    He aint doing fine one bit.
    And all the problems he is in, is not because of the media.
    The media is just telling the story as is.

    Nothing of that has to do with the current situation, that Trump isnt making America Great again, with the incredible mess he is in.

    I was only referring to America's enemies not America's allies and friends.

    Respect...President Eisenhower and JFK had no respect towards the corrupt President Diem.

    How many with in the FDR administration and the American military had any respect for Stalin during WW ll ?

    Islam and respect:
    Islam only respects the sword. The American army during the Philippine Insurrection didn't earn the respect of the Muslim Moro's with political correctness. They earned the respect of the Moro's with the use of the sword and using pigs as a weapon.

    I'm no expert on Islam but I have studied how Muslims fight on the battlefields for over the past thousand years.

    Was also a student of the late Dr. Gene Scott at his classes on Islam. The Koran is flawed big time. And the spread of Islam didn't happen using the sword but through trade and that's what Muslims fail to understand.

    For over thirty years I have been saying that Saudi Arabia is not a friend of America but are just friendly towards America. Saudi Arabia plays both sides.

    Saudi Arabia has a whole crap load of disposable money and they went with America because our weapons are better than any other nations weapons. And there's the Iran factor and the Arab world aren't happy campers with Iran.

    The only Arab friend America ever really had in the Arab world was King Hussein of Jordan. the current King Abdullah of Jordan seems like a friend and an ally.

    Egypt's President Mubarak was a friend as long as we supported his military and was an ally on our war against jihadist and also protected Israels southern flank but Obama threw Mubarak under the bus hoping to put the Muslim Brotherhood in power in Egypt. Another Obama fail.

    There are some in America who don't want America to be great again. That's why you see obstructionism in Congress and in the courts and sedition on the streets of America.

    If the president did fire the person for looking into his criminal past, than he is obstructing things.
    Obviously.

    My uncle by marriage was aide de camp to Patton in Italy. He described a flamboyant personality not a narcissist.
