It has to be an All Out Ground War... I've seen a number of posts expressing doubt and trepidation regarding how "tough" it's going to be... How many Americans are going to die, etc... In war after war in which Arabs have been involved in they have shown nothing but cowardice... I remember the pictures from the 7 day war of 10,000's of thousands of pairs of boots left behind by Egyptian "troops" shed so they could run faster... Some people think that it takes bravery and guts to commit a suicide terrorist act but don't forget that these idiots actually think they are going to Islamic "paradise" with unlimited harems, etc... (What a "religion")... I lived in Libya and have worked in Saudi and can tell you that Arabs are a bunch of pussies... They are not only weak physically but spiritually as well... Remember the sight of the hundreds of thousands of Iraqi Republican guards surrendering... crying, begging... We need to take over the Middle East and run it just like we did in Japan after WWII... Install our military, police and Govt. and change these barbaric "cultures"... run the oil reserves for the good of the world, etc... Any Arab citizen or Govt. that resists should be sent directly to "Allah"... Enough is Enough...

One I feel certain of is that a great country does not sustain itself with a small central government. Mark my words, you are not going to be seeing Bush, or Cheney, or Powell promoting the virtues of less spending on the federal government.

Based on my understanding of the Constitution, the central government has one primary role. This is it.

I am a Libertarian, just as the framers of the Constitution were. Our view is the central government should undertake only what individuals cannot. With small exception, that is
pretty much national defense.

I still have not leveled a single attack on you. Still!!!!

Efficiency should always be sought as it is one of the forms of natural virtue.

For that matter you will not hear as much from the left over issues like healthcare, social security and welfare.

What we have now is the #1 reason for your government to exist, if not the ONLY reason.
