There is a huge difference between voting to start wars, pushing military action in virtually every instance like Hillary does, and voting for defense spending like Bernie AND ALMOST EVERY OTHER DEMOCRAT including Hillary.

Your pathetic attempt to paint Bernie with Hillary's dirty brush is dishonest and shameless.

Except Vietnam, of course, but that one threatened her peers.

It's highly unlikely that any of her buds from Goldman and the Hamptons will ever end up in combat.

The party has depended on that one for decades, and they seem to think it will carry them through another election.

Qaddafi wasn't taken out because of that plane. The US didn't one day say OK now's the day for justice on that.

You of course, like Her Majesty, have no problem with violence that caused innumerable deaths and ripped a country apart, because you can dance! Yeah we got the guy for the plane so many years ago! Dance on the blood of the innocents, the disaster that is Libya--it means nothing to you.

is NOT my problem. We sent in the bombers because your pal was about to SLAUGHTER an entire town. Why are Bernie supporters so freeking ignorant about something that just happened less than 10 years ago? Or don't the lives of THOSE people count to you? If you're waiting for me to care that a terrorist scumbag was killed, you're barking up the wrong tree.

As usual the law of unintended consequences got us when we stuck our nose into that area. And as always Hillary was there pushing us to get involved.

You trumpet Qaddafi's death as a big accomplishment. I view it as a pathetic return on the cost of the innocent lives lost and the disaster that is now Libya.

That's why you're a conservative Hillary supporter and I'm not. You are willing to support bloody military action for dubious gains without thinking through the long term consequences--ala Hillary.

that taking out a scumbag leader would lead to religious freaks taking over. Except myself and anyone who knew the Arab spring wasn't going to make things all sunshine and roses. And you support keeping bloody tyrants in power OBVIOUSLY. See how that works? Now, you're boring me, feel free to have the last word that I have no intention of reading or caring about.

anyone with a working brain knew getting involved militarily in that region was foolish and meant instability and a long term disaster would follow. Of course, Hillary thought it was a good idea without giving a shit about the human cost. Because, she's tough!

Killing tyrants is foolish if there is not an political infrastructure in place to peacefully fill the power vacuum. Sure, a hawk like Hillary gets a notch on her gun for killing the dictator, and people like you dance about it, but the country is thrown into turmoil until a new tyrannical power takes over.

I know you don't care. You don't care about the innocent lives lost just so Hillary could prove how macho she is. You don't care about the disaster that Libya has become. All you care about is Hillary.

Someone helping someone up from the floor is videoed and then the scroll states that there is a brawl!

Of course, why should we be surprised? She does NOT have a penchant for Democracy. Usually hating democracy and loving violence goes hand in hand. With endless enthusiasm, she has helped her comrades at the DNC remove anything democratic abut the caucus system, while the media tells us about a local cat in a tree.
