CSpan had this as a question this am and I'm wondering what the US citizens think about this.... 

 1.)  Some people are stating that they are being used for Global Police force to protect the wealth of the richest elitist in the world! 

 

2.) Are the U.S. forces to be used for the protection of other countries?

Is it right for Britain to cut their navy in half so they can turn that part of their defense over to our U.S. Navy?  They say that our Navy is large enough to do that for them?    

3.) Are the U.S. forces to be used for the protection of the United States and to protect our sovereignty?

 

I say that the United States Military is for one purpose and that is to protect the United States of America as well as American Embassies.  Most often U.S. Marines are used for this purpose.   If they have to protect another country then there better be a good reason for it.  Protecting the wealth of the elitist isn't a good enough reason!  They are protecting other countries sovereignty while we are being invaded by Mexico!  Now, do you feel that our troops should be used at home or used in a foreign country?   I'm sure that a majority of American citizens believe that our troops belong right here on U.S. soil!  They should not be used as a U.N. police force.

The U.S. military is being used to further the Texas Twits goals on the world stage.

The Dems were let back in office to stop the war but they have run into a serious lack of nerves so nothing is getting done.

The only feelings I have about the war is that I don't see anything over there that is worth losing our young people to save. As far as Bush saying the enemy will follow us home, I reply that his assinine immigration laws have already let them in. Look at the background of the multiple killers we have had over the last year.

Don't tie the military up with anything but what it was meant for , waging necessary all out wars . The National Guard and the Coast Guard can protect the homeland like it was designed to do . Other countries need to do their own policing .

We need to bring troops home from Iraq, and put them on all our Borders, armed with Tanks , planes , etc.   It is time to Protect America Not Iraq, Mexico etc.   Demand protection , it's our tax dollars.

martha501, I certainly agree with you!

“I consider the foundation of the Constitution as laid on this ground that ‘all powers not delegated to the United States, by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states or to the people.’ To take a single step beyond the boundaries thus specially drawn around the powers of Congress, is to take possession of a boundless field of power, not longer susceptible of any definition.” —Thomas Jefferson

The troops only need to come home when the politicians get the hell out of the way and let the military do what they are supposed to do and that is break things and kill people and if anything is left after the 1st sweep go back and break and kill what was missed the first time.

Is that really the goal? At least you have expressed a goal. They should have just blowed iraq off the face of the earth and saved lots of American Soliers lives, if that is the goal.Undecided

And this is all being pushed forward by Mr. President, AKA The Decider. I guess to stop it, we should vote for more from his party? Not a very good choice. I say ....

We have to take our Nation back!

Deport the Illegal Invaders, and the Rogue Regime that has taken our Nation over.

Protect our Nation, Deportation!

WE HAFTA GET OUT OF NAFTA!!!

Our troops are and have been used as POLICE Forces ever since after WWII . Yes it has been to protect the elitists . Troops should only be deployed to other countries when it is an ally of the USA and only when asked or invited . Yes our soveriegnty is an issue , and when a foriegn country takes the position to declare war on the USA we should answer the call to war with full force until submission . Our Army , Navy , Air Foce and Marines should have exacting training time for developement when war is not an issue and the National Guard along with the Coast Guard should be our homeland defense . If you follow sports at all you are aware of "Farm Teams" . Farm teams are what the reserves are , the word RESERVE should really tell you this fact . It is all in place and set up quite orderly , if only we could get smart enough to elect someone capable of following their job duties . But then again impeachment is set up quite orderly and we are either too complacent , too lazy , too egotistical or too scared to exercise this option even when those we elect can't seem to follow the oath of office and rush off on their own silly and deadly missions complete with their own drummer .

I guess it is time to take a hard look at Ron Paul to bring this country back to a Constitutional Republic?  It would be hard, but Americans are strong and could pull it off!  Remember - we are a Republic not a Democracy... He knows this and doesn't mind stating the fact... The other candidates try to change the subject every-time he puts it out there....  Why?  Because they want to make it a Democracy under socialist rule.  This has to be stopped.  This election cycle would be the right moment in time to do that!  If we don't it might end our Republic....

 

Electing Ron Paul would also bring our troops home!

LJ,

  The U.S. Navy is doing the work that the Brits don't want to do anymore. Sound familiar ?

    The oil wells in Kuwait were owned by BP (British Petroleum)  Wasn't it nice of the Brits to stand behind us in the Gulf War so we could get their wells back ?   Yet another chapter in the U.S. Taxpayers pay for every stinking thing in this world for whoever has their hand out.
