Sometimes I really wonder where your material comes from. You certainly have an interesting set of tracks that your train of thought travels upon.

One would think the biggest cheerleaders for US global interventionism would be happy to be the tip of that spear. We're also $16+ trillion in debt. How do you propose we finance these wars? Borrowing from our enemies?

probably from George Washington's farewell address when he warned about foreign entanglements. He was of course referring to European issues, but just because our reach has increased over the centuries doesn't make his words any less true.

When did I say start new wars? When did I say anything about global interventionism? AGAIN, we should focus on self defense. Not meddling in other affairs. However, I (and most logical people), know that part of defense is knowing what your enemy is up to. Thus, we have the CIA.

What is so hard to understand about that? Stop putting words in my mouth in order to spew your talking points.

Ok, now you're not seeing it either. I never said we should get into "entanglements". I said we should be on the defensive. Part of our defense is the CIA having info on what those that wish us harm may be planning.

So if we're running guns to other nations to fight our proxy wars, is that not an act of war? Would that not make us the instigator?

For a nation of people who love liberty so much, many of which profess to be Christians, we sure don't care about the liberty of foreign people. We fought off such imperialism to only take over Britains part.

i do see it. But interfering and getting entangled doesn't mean direct military intervention. Look at what our meddling in Iran earned us.
