Rec,One reason for the GOP's obligation to start a wars is because their largest campaign contributors are usually arms manufacturers. From Lockheed to Northrop, The GOP can guarantee these business a long, protracted war. If there is no country that poses an appreciable threat, then one of the following must be done:

- Wag the dog and construct an invisible enemy. Reagan was incredibly proficient at this -- getting Americans to spend $1 trillion on the Star Wars project to protect America from Soviet ICBMs. This venture was bogus and didn't accomplish anything. It astounds me that Americans were gullible enough to pay for nothing but $3,000 toilet seats. Since the budget was top secret, we'll never know who really got rich; It certainly wasn't the American people.

I disapproved of the Viet Nam "conflict" and have never supported the jingoist war mongers of either of the Bush Administrations. I do, however, support the men and women who are forced by stupid leadership to fight these useless wars. After all, it's not their fault. I don't know if the following link to todays NY Time's article works but it's worth a read. Anyone able to guess how many non-US Citizens have fought for the USA in the Army, Marines, Airforce, or Navy, lost their lives fighting for our country and then been refused citizenship? The numbers are not small.

I support the troops by affixing a small metallic sticker to my car that says so.
Do words and decals really support the troops?
