DavidRWoods,
Have to agree with you; "HOWEVER the right seems to have BLOODLUST......"
Yet, Many of the D's have voted for the war, to fund the war, and just happen to profit from the War.
Ike saw these days coming. " This conjunction of an immense military establishment and a large arms industry is new in the American experience. The total influence -- economic, political, even spiritual -- is felt in every city, every State house, every office of the Federal government. We recognize the imperative need for this development. Yet we must not fail to comprehend its grave implications. Our toil, resources and livelihood are all involved; so is the very structure of our society.
In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the militaryindustrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.
We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes. We should take nothing for granted. Only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals, so that security and liberty may prosper together."

Ike saw this coming, what he didn't see was the power of the BOOB Tube. Imagine: "Only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry", Not to be found here in America. Americans know more about the details of the World Series or Super Bowl, than the dirty deeds of their own government. With the boob tube, America is clueless to what REALLY IS GOING ON !! The Politicians prefer unarmed peasants.
