Also, I see that my post from the previous page is pending approval because it contains a somewhat graphic picture of several small children Obama had killed.  If it helps the picture can be replaced with a link to the picture and a warning that those who can't handle that their beloved president is a bloodthirsty monster shouldn't click on the link.  I did only include the actual picture because it's amazing what the little D or R next to someones name allows people to ignore about their true nature.


Time always wins.

Well, better you call Obama a Neo-Con than a liberal. However, "Neo-Con" I think is a little more specific in it's philosophy than just simply interventionism, and I'm missing how the connection to Obama is being made with respect to that philosophy. But, speaking as one from the left, there are things happening that I don't like, such as drone strikes. Perhaps we agree to one extent or another.

Simply put, they're different sides of the same motions, with slightly different options, but similar intent and results.

"You know what else isn't sustainable?  Our borrowing.

In 2016, we will be $22.6 Trillion in debt."

Well, since the sky is falling anyway, why try to maintain any semblance of social order.  Let's take all the wealth from the rich and use it to throw one massive freaking party.  If we're going down as the doomsayers claim, we might as well do it in style. 
I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

Most of the U.S. public debt is held within the U.S.
China is largest foreign borrower, however.
