Really, I'm missing something, about what the point of contention is, the game, the rules of the game - things like that.

I have nothing else here except to assert my privilege to have an opinion like anybody else. Nothing else meaning nothing else.

17. For someone proclaiming a right to have an opinion, this is a pretty odd and over-the-top response

to being asked what that opinion is.

26. When we send our military; it's to kill

Not to understand and determine options.

That would be the job of the PEACE CORPS, right ?

Which has been dissolved over the years since JFK instituted it.

Thank you, Senator Kaine. May I make a small request? Next time tell the other 70% of Americans just who those 30% are, Republicans .

Teabaggers, libertarians, greens and their ilk that make up that cohort.

That's the basic truth right there. We have our hands full getting our own house in order. And really, the best thing we can do for the rest of the world is improve the U.S., and the residual effects will do more positive than any of our military occupations will do.

15. I read a book detailing the breakdown of civilized bahavior in the Balkans

after the breakup of Yugoslavia.

It was written by a journalist who lived through it.

His conclusion is that about 30% of the population would willingly commit atrocities if released from the constraints of society.
