My impression from what I have read so far, is conservatives are narrow minded people who what us all to live in the past, preferably the time of Jesus, and liberals are open minded and believe self government means creating and recreating our government and nation.

Specifically about war. Doesn't the constitution limit the amount that can be spent on such things as war to debt that can be off in two years?

How logical is it to deal with the more Democrats serving in the armed forces than Republicans, by attacking the Democrat distaste for war? Eisenhower argued strongly that the US is not a military agressor. This argument has been vital in our international relationships, and Bush destroyed that. Not only has he destroyed the argument that the US is not a military agressor, but the Bush family has taken pride in leading the New World Order which is military domination of the world. Furthermore, Reagon and Bush have greatly increased our national debt for military reasons. And this seems to go with the preaching of Pat Robertson, which is good only to uneducated people who interpret the bible literally and don't even know what abstract thinking and abstract interpretation means. However, the God of the old testament is a war God and a very fitting God for Republic conservatives.

Some of us are concerned not only will this destroy our nation in debts, but it also makes us the threat of world peace that has our potential enemies uniting with the intent of opposing of the US grab for world power. Several of our forefathers strongly opposed war, and a president who wants to be seen as a war president is the opposite of what they had in mind. Republicans have consistantly concentrated in power in the excutive branch, when one of the main reasons for division of power was to slow down the process of going to war, with the hope the US would never act rashly and rush to war, as Bush rushed us to war, and deliberatly malnipluated information to justify a war that was not justified. Those who are devoting our lives to defending our democracy against the likes of Bush, are the defenders of that democracy, not the Christian, conservative Republicans who would be the willing puppets of Hitler ambitions to lead the New World Order. We are frantically trying to throw off the grip of the New World Order that has preverted our beloved democracy.
