There is no war. Winning is keeping liberty alive. It's using our laws to put criminals in jail if they come here. The whole world wants liberty and wants to live in a world of laws an limited gov't, which leads gives us prosperity and the ability to live life deliberately.

All we have to do is be ourselves: lead by example in pluralism, stand ready to protect ourselves with personal arms if needed, do the things we love in live, which indirectly leads to prosperity that everyone wants. The other side (e.g. Limbaugh, ISIS) wants self-sacrifice, medevialism, and war.

I have to disagree. We have a duty to protect not only our nations but our national interest: our business, our people, and our allies. In this age, with Russia, China, North Korea and a growing list of nation, ready and willing to supply islamic nations (Iran) with nuclear capability, advanced arms and rocket technology, we cannot afford to sit idle waiting for attack on our homeland - forfeiting 10s, 100s or millions of lives to confirm an attacks legitimacy.

In this way I could support Bush and Afghanistan and Iraq. He, his people, and the rest of the world, believed Saddam had WMDs (and they were found) and GWB acted on it. As President you can only go on the best information available. When out troops were already on the ground in Afghanistan and the threat of tactical WMDs became real from neighboring Iraq (SKUDS), action was required. I do not fault him for acting, implementing is another matter.

At this point of the new islamic invasion of the West. "Leaving them alone" is not part of the solution, its suicidal.

My 2 bits.

@Johnpe : No. We have a muslim or a muslim sympathizer in the White House who is hell bent on tearing down this nation. I do not believe he was ever American.

And what business, pray tell, is it of 'we as a nation' to have a war with ISIS or anyone else until they attack the continental U.S.?

The best thing we could do is leave em alone and quit giving them weapons.
