Re: Liberal "Patriots"
Nor did excessive use of the military begin with Iraq.
After Vietnam plenty of people realized that we overuse our military in this country. We have a military industrial complex at work, and some people realize this. Since the cold war ended we have had no legitimate need for a large military establishment. Anybody with this position is well justified in opposing recruitment if they choose to voice it. |

It only happens when we use our forces for battles that aren't ours to fight, and can't be easily won fighting guerrillas, and wars that were initiated for faulty reasons. In other words, it only happens when it should happen. If we are using our forces in stupid counterproductive ways, then people should oppose recruitment at that time. Makes perfect sense. |

I'm still waiting for an answer. Obviously you can't come up with anything because it hasn't happened notably in any other time in American history. Quote:
