Not isolationist, just not war mongers

Iraq did nothing to warrant the killing of 10's if not 100's of thousands of Iraqi citizens
More than likely that Georgia instigated their own problems, also likely we were covertly behind the scenes
We are putting missiles on Russia's borders and expect them to accept that, would you accept Russia putting missiles in Cuba, or Mexico.
We are closer to WW3 than during the cold war, and I would not be surprised to see W bomb Iran before he leaves office (or let Israel do it for us, we just gave them 1000's of bunker buster bombs)

We are the aggressor, we are causing these problems to protect our gluttonous way of life. Most of the world hates us. We spend more on the military than all other countries combined. Even so, they do an embarrassing job, we can barely maintain what we have instigated and we are bankrupting our country doing it.

Time to look in the mirror.....

>The world has changed a lot since the 1700s. I don't think we could be that isolationist any more without catastrophic global consequences, including to ourselves.

>>How about a democracy based on the constitution without a FED and with a military that is based at home for defensive purposes and a plan based on long term slow sustainable growth. Just a thought...

The Founding Fathers, in the Federalist Papers and other writings, made it clear that they expected a periodic uprising against the federal government when the feds became too powerful and too neglectful of the common citizen. With the bailouts and the steady move to socialism in this country, aren't we way over the line of what would have been acceptable to the individualists the Framers were?
