Sure, Kindly...it's not going to make any kind of difference as I've said...no one changes anyones mind on a website. Never has happened.
We're in a war. One we started or not, there are people who are motivated to take us on - economically. Again, I know history, I know how much we've meddled in the Middle East. However, we can't lay down and do nothing. Wiretaps, Secret Prisons...what you think these are new? Heard of an agency called the CIA? They gather Intelligence on people who might want to harm us (the term Intelligence is debatable haha). They've been doing this stuff for decades. The Cold War? That's a fight our whole country was about. Russia ended up folding like a card table and I see no correlation with how our interest in national security is 'Apparently not anymore.'
I know these are all things that make liberals cringe. However, some liberals also tend to be more than idealistic and don't know a thing called 'reality.'
