Later. Right now let's play Global Thermonuclear War.

This Veterans Day I would like to attempt to dispel the VERY popular myth that the Republican Party is the "Warmongering" party.

Ironically, I don't think the GOP minds too much being seen as quick to fight, or strong on national defense, depending on your perspective.

But the truth is we have the Democratic party to thank for getting us into the following wars:
  • World War I (President Wilson)
  • World War II (President Roosevelt)
  • Korean War (President Truman)
  • Vietnam War (Presidents Kennedy & Johnson)
Anyone want to pit the death totals of those wars against those with Iraq?

Funny, isn't it, how Republicans are seen as "Warmongers"?
