And that's what's annoying about war - I don't think politicians have to even CONVINCE the public to start denouncing people for lack of patriotism and exposure to danger. The people do it FOR THEM. Maybe I'd feel better if we at least NEEDED convincing.
But don't you think it's interesting in a democracy, where you would figure (and I say this hypothetically) the people would vote for their own. But they don't. Instead, we vote for big business people, both democratic and republican, whose hands, brains, and balls are too tied up in their assets, because they're the only people who have enough money to run. And if we did, would we still go to war, just off base corruption and power-hunger? Probably.
