Putting women in military combat is the cutting edge of the feminist goal to force us into an androgynous society Picture Quote #1

I lived just outside of L.A. for a long time. My dad was in the military, so I moved a lot Picture Quote #1

I was born in a hurricane in Pensacola, Florida... my dad was in the military, so we moved all over the place. But I consider myself a southerner from Louisiana. I’ve lived in Texas for most of my adult life Picture Quote #1

If our nation goes over a financial Niagara, we won’t have much strength and, eventually, we won’t have peace. We are currently borrowing the entire defense budget from foreign investors.

Desert Storm was seen by the military establishment and by some politicians as avenging Vietnam, but it left behind dangerous illusions.

Many developing countries continue to be burdened by high percentages of their population living in poverty. Yet, instead of addressing this root cause of conflict, many states, ironically, increase their military might in order to control increasingly desperate populations Picture Quote #1

There are many different ways that a military person’s career can be translated Picture Quote #1
