Ron Paul quoted retired Secretary of Defense Gates pronouncement that “anyone advocating a third war for the U. S. is nuts.” I'll further state that anyone who believes that the defense budget can't use some further cutting back is nuts as well. Deploying an air craft carrier and its fleet to break up a line of donkeys carrying supplies is so expensive that the donkeys win, whether they survive or not. Further more wars of attrition such as Afghanistan are impossible and we as a nation should know it since General George Washington never won a battle during our revolutionary war against the British, he just wore them out.
