We need to take care of things at home first before trouncing about the rest of the world.

We're wasting untold billions of dollars in Afghanistan, we're losing our connections with Pakistan. And Obama has stated he wants to start a war with Pakistan.

When does this stop?

I'd love to see the troops brought home period instead of making the corporate warmongers richer and richer and wasting money overseas.

We should put Americans first.

I'm not a pacifist mind you, i believe that if terrorists attack us we have every right to go out and get them.

And I'm not against charity or economic trade with other countries first.

But America needs to be our top priority and we need to fix our problems. I don't understand why our government has no willpower to fix them.
