18. I suppose we will leave Syria in as good a shape as Libya, things are a humanitarian mecca there now

Our constant meddling in the middle east has always been at least as successful as Libya.

Bush and Obama are correct, military action is well worth the expense in lives and loss of money, it has heralded such wonderful peace abroad and austerity at home!

I am in awe all of all of our military Presidents, war is the goal of all great men.
Social justice at home is the pipe dream of wimps and welfare pushers!

Thank God Obama ran on all war all the time, it set him apart for me and showed me what a great man and President he would be.
I only hope we can fit in Iran before some wimpy Democrat gets in in 2016.

Admit it, the thought of red mist and large explosions swells the pants a bit doesn't it? Is anything more exciting than the thought of killing people? Is death not the power of Gods?
I am as proud as you are and looking forward to our first kills there, I think I need a cold shower, how about you?
