When are we going to stop sending our young men and, now, women to fight in foreign wars that only cost the American tax payer billions of dollars and benefit nobody? When are we going to stop the utter waste of human beings in the bloom of their lives? Its time to develop a foreign policy of diplomatic relations with fair trade with foreign countries instead of going to wage war in them. George Washington said it best when he advised us to "steer clear of permanent alliances with any portion of the foreign world" while being on "friendly terms with, but independent of, all the nations of the earth."

One of the reasons people voted Obama into office is that he stated he would bring the boys home from Iraq while following a policy of non-intervention in the Middle East. Now, he is adding to the troops in Afghanistan.

Its time to bring the troops home and follow a policy of DEFENSE with posting them on the Southern Border to protect our country.
