That's funny. *I* do not live in the real world?
It's not me that thinks we have a million man standing Army that can invade and occupy Syria, Iran, Libya, etc.
It's not me that thinks we have the firepower/money/resourdes to take over any Muslim nation we don't like!
2/3rd of our Infantry is right NOW in Iraq/Kuwait! That's a "suppressed response?"
And it's not me that thinks we have the right to invade ANY country simply because we don't like the way they run their government/country.
King..we've had to call up the National Guard to take over duties normally run by the regular army. So do we use the "weekend warriors" to invade Iran then? Or are you now saying that we need to re-start the draft?
Evan the Taliban is making a comeback in Afghanistan. There were several stories from the AP today about how resurgent the Taliban has become in Afghanistan. And we have a WHOPPING 5000 soldiers to patrol the entire country!
