5. They are a culture of death.
With the exception of Senator McCain, these are guys who think war is what they saw in Rambo and all those Chuck Norris flicks that they watched to soothe the shame of either dodging the draft during Vietnam, or not being tough enough to sign up and face the music. They're pudgy armchair warriors, not unlike myself. The only difference is that I long since came to terms that I was no hero and there was no glory of that sort in my future. These guys still think they can get some, provided of course that they and theirs don't have to get shot at.

7. We would be at war with EVERY COUNTRY IN THE WORLD
if it was left up to them, because they cannot get along with anyone at all. We would have no allies either. They are THAT impossible to deal with.

8. They'd also be at war with liberals, the middle class & the poor
well, except for the poor serving in the armies.

10. The GOP mindset summed up in a Monty Python bit
This is from Episode 44, "Mr. Neutron":



"Captain Carpenter here, sir. We've been on red alert now for three days, sir, and still no sign of Mr Neutron."

"Have we bombed anywhere? Have we shown 'em we got teeth?"

"Oh yes, sir! We've bombed a lot of places flat, sir!"

"Good, good! We don't want anyone to think we're chicken!"

"Oh, no! They don't think that, sir! Everyone's really scared of us, sir!"

"Of us?"

"Yes, sir."

"Of our... power?"

"Oh yes, sir! They're really scared when they see those big planes come over!"

"Wow! I bet they are, I bet they are! I bet they're really scared!"

"Oh, they are, sir!"

"Do we have any figures on how scared they are?"

"No... no figures, sir. But they sure were scared!"

12. I was just thinking about the same thing
I had a map of Europe and Asia in my mind, blacking out the countries we would be at war with. I had Saudi Arabia, India and Israel, left over. It would amount to WW111. Unbelievable! Chaney wants into Iran that bad.
