How about the next time we wage a war, we do it because we have to.

[The_Casual_Observer]

Not one we are lied into because it fits conveniently into some shadow group like the pnac's plans. Just a thought.

[SHRED]

1. No why can't...

the MSM realize that?
I know...I know...

Well said.

[MuseRider]

2. Hey!

Now that is a good idea.

[Inland]

3. You mean, for real? Or is it enough if the president pretends we have to?

[prodigal_green]

4. how about we wage it on an enemy, not

a noun (war on terror)

[bonito]

5. A great thought to build on

Let's all work together toward ending every reason for war. Lets feed the hungry, help the sick, lets find that life is good. and honor and thanks for all our brothers and sisters, sons and daughters, that have sacrificed there lives here, and humbly stand on there shoulders, that one day we would find peace for Humanity. when that time comes we will all know god. It's within our reach. peace and Mothers and fathers there children we should nourish in love for there sacrifice.

6. There's a thought

I'm with you.

Novel idea.

Makes a lot of sense.

[Cleita]

7. My thought is how are we going to make sure this never

happens again?

[bonito]

8. It starts with you.

Peace.

9. RICO vs. AEI and the GOP and some more

Lots of legislation to get fair elections, enforce separation of powers, curtail presidential power, and a lot more is needed.

RICO suits vs. AEI and the GOP would make a lot of sense at this point.

10. Where did I here this motto before

First in peace last in war? I remember my dad telling me this a long time ago but I forgot where it belongs too.

[bonito]

11. sounds familiar to me too

I don't know where it was said. tomorrow I'm going to see about having the peace sign put on my forehead. my wife says I will have to live with this. But I feel I could live with this easer than having my children kill another human beaning, or loosing them. And as a reminder to my self if I should fall asleep in this world again what really is important.

15. i think it went

first in war,
first in peace,
first in the heart of his country men
That is the story of Washington
That is the glory of Washington.....

like, the sound track from a disney classic????

i have a wierd brain... i could be way off-

but i agree- Peace is the only answer- not 'doing nothing' but not destroying people who don't agree with us, or we don't like, or that we fear= killing them won't change things in the long run- Any more than one partner in a relationship can 'fix' the other- it is in negotiation, understanding, and listening and being honest with ourselves, and the world, that hope lives.

18. Bluerthanblue

I've been looking for a shade of blue, hovering close too cobalt, but it is not just that. bluer than blue thats it! Its beyond words!I don't mean to offend you, but I got a weird brain too. Anyway good to know you. thanks for your post!. peace.

[Bluerthanblue]

19. no offense

taken at all- and good to know you too-

"weird brains think alike- weird brains think for themselves"
peace to you too.

[mcctatas]

12. You must be an America hating traitor...

Where's the profit in a war we have to fight?:sarcasm: :hi:

[Bluerthanblue]

13. "There has never been a good war or a bad peace"

War, killing to end killing just doesn't work- if it did, would war not be extinct???

[The_Casual_Observer]

14. "Everybody's crying peace on earth, just as soon as we win this war"

Mose Allison.

[Bluerthanblue]

16. war doesn't have any winners

it doesn't answer the question of who is 'right'-
it only has a chance of teaching those who are 'left' how ineffective killing to control is-

[Deja Q]

17. Which may be the case BECAUSE of the previous, lie-based war we got into.

Just a thought.
