5. Piers Morgan a bit ago. It was a short blurb but it struck me.

I'm not sure if he's at a Clinton Initiative event or if he invited them on but Chelsea was there.

3. It's simply not sustainable without waves of recruits

Heaven forbid that the Economy would spring large. Where would the otherwise-unemployed, flyover-ville recruits come from?

4. i have to agree with him

the american people wouldn't have accepted 11 straight years of another world war two

what they accepted was a death by a thousand cuts.

6. He's right, it was built for continuous fear of war.
