"Republicans love war. They won't pay for it, they won't fight in it, but they love war."

1. Mark Shields in one of my favorites.

He served in the Marines, so he walks the walk as well as talking the talk.

Unlike a couple of hundred conservative columnists and pundits I could mention....

2. Wow

Finally someone who sees American just I have seen it for the past 40 years.
If one see's most of my post for the past 40 years on any political sites I have been on,one will see that constant theme that America Love's War.

Most Americans on the right,especially the Republicans Conservatives and the fundametalist Christian right love and worships Weapons,War and the military,and Hates Gays,Arabs and immigrants,and really do not like peace.
We always have to have a enemy to wage war against,and if we dont have an enemy, we will create one from the least liked of our so called friends allies.
Lately it has been Arabs who have been the main target,and anyone who supports Palestinian rights and oppposes Israeli/US mid east policies.
Some of the worst comments I hear from some Christians who are ardent supporters of Israel is that the US should just go in Wipe out all the Arabs,or Nuke them all,if we think they pose any threat to Israel,because they are nothing but savages
