Remember when there were just a few liberals on the left saying "Umm.... I dont think we should do this." Remember how Republicans said Democrats hated America and loved terrorists? Remember how even fellow Democrats were saying how could we tolerate people living under dictators and suffering massacres? Remember how they shouted "Holocaust!" and "Rwanda!" Outnumbered, liberals said "You'll regret it!"

Then things didnt seem to go as planned. Because when plans meet reality, reality wins.

Then things began to change. And over time, after great cost, slowly everyone comes to realize that the Middle East is not a playground for America's intentions but a real place whose choices in how they govern themselves is just as valid as any white western nation. Slowly they realize that perhaps America does not know all, know best, and is omnipotent in ability. Perhaps those crazy reality based people knew what they were talking about after all.

But memories, schmemories. How can we repeat the past if we don't forget it?

And so here we are again.

2. I don't think that even Germany at it's worst was as constantly warlike as the good old USA.

Didn't they at least have some periods of peace?
I am dumbfounded at how stupid and easily manipulated we have become.


And our "apparent cure"?
Vote in more Republicans

How do you spell "duh"?

4. Umm ... yeah...

Nothing wins an argument like a hyperbolic comparison to Germany. How is your statement any different than the local NRA members comparing background checks to 1930s Germany?
