Shit, my cat doesn't have the bazooka option. I wonder if I should trade her in or just get a new one?

that's fucking hilarious. The bazooka at the end made me lol.

>> ^blankfist:
Am I out of touch? How much has this war cost us? Military spending is 56% of the federal budget.

Military spending is more like 20% of the budget, and I do want that to shrink. But our government's national deficit isn't why the economy is tanking. On the contrary, our economy tanking is responsible for a healthy chunk of our national debt.

Obviously you don't believe they attacked us for our freedom, do you? I hope not.

No, I think they attacked us because they feel aggrieved for actions we've taken in the past. I also think they use hatred of us as their entire way of attracting and retaining followers -- we're a convenient scapegoat.

Sort of like libertarians and government.

I hope you realize there would be no threat if we weren't spreading hegemony abroad. If we weren't meddling in foreign affairs, we would've never experienced 9/11.
To ensure our safety, yes, I do believe we need to march out of the Middle East. It's just that simple. We should also march out of the 130+ countries overseas and close down our 700+ bases there. Remove Al Qaeda's incentive to attack us and you will have your peace.

I agree that if we had never meddled in the affairs of others, Al Qaeda would probably be attacking the Third Reich instead, or the Soviet Union, or whoever the world superpower is in that alternate reality.

In our timeline of events, I don't think withdrawing from everywhere would make Al Qaeda turn peaceful. On the contrary, I think they'd think they were winning, and keep right on stoking hate towards us, and looking to seek vengeance.

I do think our fixation on them as some sort of existential threat only made them stronger, and that using the US military on them is like trying to kill a gnat with a bazooka. This needed to be a public relations war and law enforcement effort more than a shooting war.

I want us out of Afghanistan. As near as I can tell the argument for staying is to help get their government established to the point where they can keep the Taliban and Al Qaeda at bay, but I'm not so sure that's doable with troops, unless the idea is to wipe out Al Qaeda (but they aren't in Afghanistan). But I don't have access to the same information the President has, and unlike Bush, I trust Obama's motives. I don't think he's in favor of fighting wars just to fight wars (or to secure oil rights, or to try to one-up his daddy).

So, I'm not going to scream out against it yet, but I do think he needs to talk more about it, and try to build up a consensus for it if it's really a necessary war. If it's not, he needs to start bringing it to a close.

"Weee!!!" LMFAHS.

Nice how the bazooka disintegrated the bulldozer.

What happens next? I'm on the edge of my seat!

One has to be smoking some pretty heavy doobies to not notice the imperfectly synchronized shaky-cam effect while they're rotating the camera 90 degrees and the image offset near the end. This is probably the most obviously glaringly fake video I ever saw on VideoSift.
