The U.S. needs to protect its own border -- period. It is one of the few constitutionally allowed actions the military can take and yet seems far down the list of priorities.

Debate gets muddy awfully quickly when you start talking about war overseas. There needs to be a clear and compelling national interest for us to be doing anything anywhere else.

I am an advocate for a strong military with lost of kicka*s toys and plenty of funding to support them. This is NOT synonymous with using those toys everywhere in the world for sh*ts and giggles.

I will have a Belikin -- put it on klcman's tab.
