[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8163384, member: 614752"] [B]They're[/B] Please point out where the US federal government has the authority to enforce their will on ANY other sovereign nation? Where does it authorize the president to pick a side in every third world ********'s civil wars? Perhaps you were stoned or sleeping through Civics 101 (and likely English as well), but outside of Washington DC, Puerto Rico, certain government buildings and naval bases, and other territories as enumerated, the federal government pretty much only exists to: 1. Coin and regulate the value of money. 2. Maintain a NAVY and defend our borders from invasion. 3. Regulate interstate commerce. Of course in the open-air asylum we have created here (with the help of the terminally dumbed down and uninformed masses) they are completely failing to do the first two of their duties and using the pretext of the third to pass laws to intrude on every facet of the lives of what should be the sovereign states and their citizens (subjects?). If you feel so passionately about Syria's civil war, nobody is stopping you from buying a flight over there and lending a hand on whichever side of their revolution you want to support. Seems that our collective definition of "genocide" that we should be outraged about varies greatly depending on the political and religious leaning of the country in question. Nobody raised an eyebrow when the Bolsheviks and then Stalin slaughtered over 60 MILLION of their own people. Your socialist media, teachers and "leaders" don't really seem to mind the 45 MILLION high score of Chairman Mao. So where DO we draw the line? I assure you the pablum spoon-fed to you by the media or the Kenyan in the white house has nothing to do with the reasons we will or will not get involved. I can also assure you that public opinion has NOTHING to do with the outcome anyway. I'd wager the outcome is already planned and we're just watching the stage show now. If you want to be a UN citizen, go move to UN-istan of wherever their "country" is. How about take a look at the UN charter and see that it grants absolutely NO individual rights and was largely borrowed directly from Marx. In short, Go to night school and get a remedial education. Learn to read and communicate, then read some books and try to develop the ability for critical thinking. Weak kneed liberal/progressive (communist) types ninny about how dangerous guns are and how we should need a license to exercise a God given right, but they'd have every illiterate breeder voting without even proving their identity. I ask you all, which is more dangerous, a gun in the hands of a responsible citizen, or a ballot in the hands of the uneducated? (Protip, the "right" to vote is NOT among those rights given by God, and guaranteed by ANY of our original founding documents) But when Israel does it, or we do it, it's called "freedom" and is OK. None of our business whatsoever. We created them in the first place when we recruited, trained, and funded OBL in the 80's. Watch the movie Rambo 3.... the Afghani "insurgents" were "freedom fighters". It's amazing what a little media brainwashing and changing words will accomplish. So butting out of internal affairs of other sovereign nations is a sign of weakness? [/QUOTE]
