Funny you do not even consider alternatives to military intervention. Ever your first resort, not your last one.

I guess the invasion of Grenada took people's minds off the Marine barracks being blown up in Lebanon.

Got to watch those in the grip of PC thinking, Ron. Military intervention is always necessary, right?

You swallow Bush-Cheney propaganda whole, then accuse me of being PC. What a joke.

Louise,
"You swallow Bush-Cheney propaganda whole, then accuse me of being PC. What a joke"
Are you attempting to tell me that I am being non PC? PC is a tactic invented by the Frankfort School and I do not accept them as an authority on anything.
Secondly, what did Bush-Cheney have to do with Grenada-Beriut? Don't you have even a basic grasp of events that happened during your own life?
At least you are fairly good at memorizing the PC line and letting it substitute for thinking.
Ron

It has to do with this:

You're the one who feeds on propaganda, all the while you claim I substitute PC views for thought. You gobble up whatever the US propaganda machine tells you to believe, even going so far as to say that the invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan serve the purpose of the survival of Western civilization.

I believe you are very much deluded by whatever the newspapers may report.

Louise, mi pobre,
" even going so far as to say that the invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan serve the purpose of the survival of Western civilization."
I forgot every morning you are born into a brand new world and can remember only one overriding thought, hate America at all cost and in all things.
You really have no idea what led up to Afghanistan do you? You don't know that OBL the architect of the attack on New York City that murdered 3,000 of your fellow citizens. That is perfectly okay with you, isn't it? You don't know that OBL represents a segment of Islam that has been spreading Islam by the sword since 622 AD. Again that is okay with you because obviously we started the whole thing in 621 AD -- don't let that be too subtle for you.
Your ignorance is pathetic.
Ron

Your war-mongering ignorance is pathetic.

Thank you, Louise,
I will take that as a badge of honor and regale my buddies with stories of your PC naivete.
Ron

Couldn't agree more. So many drink the Gov Kool-Aid..

Must taste great.

Darrel,
"Couldn't agree more. So many drink the Gov Kool-Aid.. . . Must taste great."
You made that comment in response to Louise having said, "Your war-mongering ignorance is pathetic"
Why would you call me a "war monger" and use the term "ignorance" to describe me?
Do you have a reason for taking that position or did it just sound like a good idea at the time?
Ron
