Simple questions for the RW
Can you tell me how many lives in the US were saved by the wars we are now in?

Is there a CBO estimate of how many people here would have died had we not went to war? Is there a general or generals out there who can lay out to the American people exactly the immediate threat to us - not just "well, X could maybe possibly someday might happen" but real numbers and real evidence that can be used to justify all the money and lives lost (on both sides)?

Spend X, Save Y - for the RW it is all about the money and where it goes and why. So we know where it went, was it a good investment?

Did more people in the US die because of the wars, from lack of spending to help fellow citizens here (whom some of you think are not worth saving)?

If your REAL goal was to save people here, why did you tell us that fellow US Citizens, your fellow Americans, are not worth anything because they cannot find a job after you made it easy for companies to send our jobs overseas?

YOU believed that companies would do the 'right thing' for your country, and when they stabbed us in the back for profit you attacked the very people who spent their lives working hard and at the same time blamed illegal immigrants for stealing jobs (news flash, most the jobs were not stolen, they were moved to near slave labor in other countries so that the few could increase their dividends - and among those few are foreigners in Saudi Arabia who invested in our companies and demanded lower costs so that they could make more).

More people here in the US have been harmed by your policies than by anything any other country has done to us.

All in the name of money. The root of all evil according to Jesus (you do remember that guy right? Or do you only invoke his name when it comes to certain issues?)

When Jesus spoke of the woman on the scarlet beast he was talking about the US. You don't believe in his words or ideals, you believe in how those words can increase your bottom line ahead of those that suffer most.

The anti-christ is not a person, it is an institution. One where people claim to be Christian while all the time they act in ways that are against it's very principles and ideals.

The golden calf is alive and well and being worshiped by you.
