Recently in the news McCain has been barking about playing the white knight with the lives and money of the American people in Syria. It's so sad to have someone who is supposed to represent my state always try to represent others in another country. Hey Johnnie, NOT YOU'RE BUSINESS! As sad as it is, these actions are not occurring in the United States and it is time for you to realize that Syria is not within our country. You want war in the guise to make peace, then you fund it and you find volunteers that didn't swear to their lives for THIS country.

It is stated in this article,

“Using stand-off weapons, without boots on the ground, and at minimal risk to our men and women in uniform, we can significantly degrade Assad’s air power and ballistic missile capabilities and help to establish and defend safe areas on the ground,” Mr. McCain and Mr. Graham said in a joint statement. “In addition, we must begin a large-scale effort to train and equip moderate, vetted elements of the Syrian opposition with the game-changing weapons they need to shift the military balance against Assad’s forces.”

I get it, lets invade another country and how many more enemies we can create with the "collateral damage" that occurs in bombing and missile attacks. How many more of our kids have to come home crippled physically and mentally until this whole "save the world" crusade ends. Its not the job of the United States to be the world police nor is it the responsibility of the American people to fund your endless crusades. You guys are effing INSANE! All this war mongering is going to come and haunt us, mark my words the next attack on this country will be in direct response for creating death and destruction in another country.

In this article, Johnnie goes on about losing credibility across the world.

"And if the United States stands by, and doesn't take very serious action, not just launching some cruise missiles, then again, our credibility in the world is diminished even more, if there is any left."

Johnnie, I believe our credibility has been lost throughout the world because you'd rather kill everyone that doesn't follow your path instead of becoming their partners. What does it matter what their religion or political views are? If we are trading with them there is a mutual advantage to maintain that relationship. You can't beat everyone into submission and think there won't be a price to pay. Though I truly want to believe you are smarter than that but time and again you prove what a dumb-ass you are by making foolish statements and always being the aggressor.

Here we continue to read the diatribe of a single minded hate machine.

“Now is the time for decisive actions. The United States must rally our friends and allies to take limited military actions in Syria that can change the balance of power on the ground and create conditions for a negotiated end to the conflict and an end to Assad’s rule."

Change the balance of power he says. Sounds like nation building and deciding who deserves to be in power. It not a matter for the United States so why get involved. Oh yah, its American interests. Well what the F are these American interests? If the middle east went to hell in a hand basket we would be forced to source our energy from the ground here in the U.S. which we all know there is plenty of so I ask again, what are the interests? If its not oil or minerals, what can it be?

There is also this statement,

“The United States has sat on the sidelines for too long as the conflict in Syria has taken the lives of more than 100,000 Syrians and turned millions more into refugees, including 1 million children..."

I truly feel horrible for what is going on but keep in mind, not one life lost was American and I'd like to keep it that way. Johnnie hire an army of mercenaries with your own money and go to war but leave the U.S. out!

In this article Johnnie tells us the cost of war is cheap. Lives are free and its not his money so who cares.

"When does the United States, with very little cost, stand up for these people and stop this horrific - you can't look at those pictures without being deeply moved. Are we just going to let that go on?"

Cruise missile - $1.4M/each, Afghanistan conflict - $300M/day, Iraq $814B and climbing. Hey Johnnie, which one of these are cheap? You arrogant asshole, its not your money! You are one of the main causes for the theft of the fruits of my labor and I want it to end. Get off the "blow-em all up and let God sort them out" mentality. Maybe you should be on the receiving end so we can move to a time of peace.

"We could take out the runways and take out the 40 or 50 aircrafts they're using which is dominating the battlefields in the towns and the cities and we can supply the right kind of weapons to rebels to establish a no fly zone by using...moving patriot missiles up to the border," McCain assured that all those steps could be done without putting "a single (American) life at risk."

Anytime you place our troops or aircraft in a tactical situation there are no guarantees, only a deceitful snake would make such a statement. What have you become omniscient? You have a little magic crystal ball Mr Wizard? Get over it, there are no guarantees except that the tax payers will be on the hook for Billions more and American lives will be damaged or destroyed. That is what war is all about!
