I am sorry, I do not believe that I can add to the list any further. So as is only polite, thank you for having me at your party, but I think I need to be someplace else for a while.

If you support World War III you are against the US military because any expansion of combat in the ME now would all but destroy our Army and Marines. They are already pretty decimated.

To do what Bush envisions we'd need a draft, higher taxes and all-out war. But against who? Even in Iran's case we're only talking about one element of their society who's against us. And if we go in bombing and killing civilians we'd make more new enemies. There's really no sane endgame to any of this. It's rather suicidal in fact. Or more like murder-suicide. Everyone dies.
