Re: Wartime Presidents....
This idea that there is something noble about war is baffling...
Grunts die in the mud and the sand - and they are just kids mostly - that is the honor of war

America = World Police

Obama has forced 2 countries to change governments, Lybia and Egypt, with very little American blood lost. Syria is on the verge, 1 more term and Iran will fall.

The glorification of war in this county stopped with the Korean War. That was well before most of us were born.
