My "hate" as you call it is not about America. I revere and have fought to protect the constitution and laws of the United States.
I do have a disgust and disapproval of the neoconservatives and the military/industrial establishment and their fixed ideology of endless WAR for profit, which has had a death grip on our govt's policies for 4 decades.
You have me confused with someone else if you think i'm a lockstep dem or political partisan, my friend. I'm partisan to AMERICA, and the US CONSTITUTION and BILL OF RIGHTS. I like IKE and the old Republican party before neocons took it over.
If you think posting a far right site (heritage foundation), which is a well known neocon think tank is a viable response to the failures of the neocon policies, then you are the person who needs to be checking your indoctrination.
I'm still waiting for someone like crispy or 2008 or yourself to tell me anything NEW that will solve the problems of an endless occupation.....but, so far, all I've gotten are insults, lies and namecalling from them, and more neocon propaganda from you....
Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. This is not a way of life at all in any true sense. Under the cloud of threatening war, it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron.
Dwight D. Eisenhower, From a speech before the American Society of Newspaper Editors, April 16, 1953
We merely want to live in peace with all the world, to trade with them, to commune with them, to learn from their culture as they may learn from ours, so that the products of our toil may be used for our schools and our roads and our churches and not for guns and planes and tanks and ships of war.
Dwight D. Eisenhower (1890 - 1969)
I hate war as only a soldier who has lived it can, only as one who has seen its brutality, its futility, its stupidity.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
"Should any political party attempt to abolish social security, unemployment insurance, and eliminate labor laws and farm programs, you would not hear of that party again in our political history. There is a tiny splinter group, of course, that believes that you can do these things. Among them are a few Texas oil millionaires, and an occasional politician or businessman from other areas. Their number is negligible and they are stupid."
President Dwight D. Eisenhower
