I've lost count now. How many wars we in?
We got the war on terra, the war on Islamofascism, the war on the middle class, the war on Christmas.
Oh yeah...the one on drugs.
We used to have one on poverty, but I think we lost it.
Probably the one on hunger, too.
Was the drunken driving thing ever a war?
Or just a (fill-in-the-blank) AGAINST it?

I'm just not sure we're equipped to fight all these wars on all these fronts.
Do they ALL have to be 'wars'?
Maybe we could just downgrade a few of them to 'strongly disagree'?

I dunno.
I can't keep up with them anymore.
:shrug:

you'll hear the drumbeat starting up for war with Iran. It scares me.

8. Whatever happened to "police actions?"
They used to be popular. I guess Korea and Vietnam kind of soured people on them.
