Republicans Pray for War !!!
They keep telling us the left is a "small, finge group", outnumbered by "real Americans".

They keep telling us that they have religion on their side.

They keep telling us that "prayer works"

The left has been praying for peace forever

So, I can only conclude....

people for quite a while.

Since this is Memorial Day weekend, the channels have a lot of old military-type movies. 'God Is My Co-pilot' is the perfect example of a good, clean Christian boy that goes off the kill Japs. Onward Christian Soldiers!

Quite honestly, I'm tired of watching that 'stuff'.

5. And they call themselves "pro life."
I'm a liberal; I'm anti-death.

6. Some see it as an expression of Faith. There is no leap at all from
killing or enabling the killing of innocent people elsewhere and killing them here. All is subsummed into one's faith.

I believe there is a significant minority of Americans who would welcome war on our soil.

10. Or, at minimum, cause the nation such grevious harm as to be worth even losing such a match.

12. And the problem is that they operate just under the legal radar, until some other poor benighted
FOOL starts something.

Just like Republicans.

13. They've always thought war is good business.



They have never seen a war they didn't like.
