Quoted from CICERO

Wow!  So the USG actually fought and sacrificed Americans to prevent Vietnam from preserving their union?  So the U.S. fought to preserve the secession of South Vietnam from the northern aggressors?  Oh the irony. Box fought to defend a seceding state.  D

I'm surprised the USG doesn't encourage South Korea to invade North Korea to unify the Korean Peninsula under the South's government.  South Korea needs their Lincoln.


See Cicero.  YOU do understand what a civil war is and as such, you recognize that the US War Between The
States was also a civil war!
I'm glad that I could spend this time enlightening you.

So help me with my continued education....was the colonists revolution against England really just a civil war?  They declared independence from their rightful ruler, and decided to govern themselves.

Rand Paul Prefers Hillary & Obama!


"The other Republican (candidates) will criticize the president
and Hillary Clinton for their foreign policy, but they would just have done
the same thing — just 10 times over."
"There's a group of folks in our party who would have troops in
six countries right now, maybe more."
(Rand Paul)

I really wish you would stop using sexist words when identifying Ms. Clinton

Los Angeles Times: “Democrats will be trying to win a third consecutive presidential election,
a difficult task made harder by the fact that by almost 2 to 1, Americans continue to believe
the country is on the wrong track, polls show.”

“Republicans will be trying to win with a base of supporters that is roughly 90% white in an
increasingly diverse country, having failed so far to develop a strategy to attract the growing
minority populations who rejected them in 2008 and 2012.”

The Koch Bros Pick Scott Walker For President

Quoted Text

“When the primaries are over and Scott Walker gets the nomination,” Mr. Koch told the crowd, the
billionaire brothers would support him, according to a spokeswoman. The remark drew laughter and
applause from the audience of fellow donors and Republican activists, who had come to hear Mr.
Walker speak earlier at the event, held at the Union League Club.

Two people who attended the event said they heard Mr. Koch go even further, indicating that
Mr. Walker should be the Republican nominee. A spokeswoman disputed that wording, saying
that Mr. Koch had pledged to remain officially neutral during the primary campaign.

But Mr. Koch’s remark left little doubt among attendees of where his heart is, and could effectively
end one of the most closely watched contests in the “invisible primary,” a period where candidates
crisscross the country seeking not the support of voters but the blessing of their party’s biggest
donors and fund-raisers.


Meanwhile, back in Wisconsin, Walker's benefactors are busily trying to bury the possibility of an indictment.

Sen. Rand Paul called out his fellow senators for serving as “the lapdogs for President Obama”
on foreign policy matters.

In an interview on Fox News (OF COURSE)  Tuesday morning, the Republican presidential candidate
responded to recent criticisms from Sens. Lindsey Graham  and John McCain ,
who have both expressed concerns about Paul’s understanding of foreign policy
issues.

Donald Trump “returns to New Hampshire with a presidential campaign-like schedule Monday,
and the Union Leader has learned he has signed a lease for an office in Manchester that will
open May 1.”

“The visit is Trump’s third to New Hampshire since he announced an exploratory committee.”

Out Of Touch Republicans

Quoted Text
“A week before a closely watched U.S. Supreme Court hearing on the issue, public
support for gay marriage reached a new high in the latest ABC News/Washington Post poll,
with 61 percent of Americans – more than six in 10 for the first time – saying gays and lesbians
should be allowed to marry legally.”

“Identical or similar majorities favor gay marriage on two key issues before the court: Sixty-one
percent oppose allowing individual states to prohibit same-sex marriages. And 62 percent support
requiring states to recognize gay marriages performed legally in other states.”
