2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumNot all of the military is evil! (note to the screamers at Panetta)
to those protesters who tried to shout down Leon Panetta, and to those who condone what they were doing, STOP! Fact is sometimes, you gotta use your military. No, just taking it from the terrorists and enemies is not some virtue; that's not "peace," that's cowardice. This election will be decided in part, by who voters want to be commander in chief.
