I have spoken on the cost of war.. in this thread, Gerbixk has also mentioned the cost of war in this thread. You FL failed to acknowledge it.

"Failed to acknowledge it?" I didn't know that it was a requirement for me to do so. If you're angry with Obama about that, so be it. I'm not necessarily all that interested in that subject at this time. I sometimes choose not to respond to subjects I've gone over and am tired of.

Teabaggers haven't If they are so afraid of government spending then why are they not focusing attention to the cost of war. As I have stated the war is a greater burden on government spending then anything else.

You're making the absurd argument that being concerned with cost means that you have to object to every cost.

There are many people, including myself, that believe that the war, including the cost of it, was and is necessary. There are many Democrats that agree, especially about Afghanistan. This is obviously true since they have the absolute power to stop it if they wanted to but have chosen to escalate it.

On the other hand, there are many conservatives that also object to war spending. So, it would make more sense for you to just make your argument rather than trying to generalize about groups with diverse positions.

The war is not the greatest burden on government spending. Look again.

If you and the teabaggers are concerned with goverment costs why haven't you and/or the teabaggers protested the war?

I've already explained this. Unfortunately, there is still a need in the world for military opposition to oppressive and dangerous regimes.

The wars were started under Bush. I protested then. The wars are continued under Obama... because Bush didn't have a plan to stop the wars. Blame still lays with the prior administration.

Blame and current protest are two different things. What is your current objective for your protest? To change what Obama and the Democrats do?

Show where the RNC staffer was fired. Otherwise, opinion. The rest... sad. Tea Party, Christian Militias, and ignorance are rampant now.

No. It's not difficult to find the actual story if you really want to know.

It's never difficult to find examples of bad behavior in a large country. It goes both ways. Don't confuse antipathy for the passage of legislation that the majority of the country opposed with isolated incidents.

I'm sure you felt the same way about the ACORN/pimp incident, right?

Actually, I did. It was the other, more institutional acts of corruption and criminal behavior of the leadership that was telling.
