QUAGMIREocracy

You may not have a job, or a house, or health care, or pre-school care, or enough to eat, or any care if you are old because those things are NOT ENTITLEMENTS!

Those things are all examples of YOU sucking off the system!

But there is one thing that is always maintained in this great democratic nation of ours and that is a total-complete-ironclad-guaranteed-over-the-top Foreign Policy of,

Seriously, don’t think for a moment that the United States Military Industrial Complex can not maintain a continued state of QUAGMIRE!

THAT is what they do best. And they have proved it!

Korea

Vietnam

Afghanistan

Iraq

Libra

Syria

And we can all hope with Trump that we can get deeper involved in Syria and Korea which for all practical purposes will have us facing off Russia and China to boot!

Ahh, that American Military just can’t seem to win ANYTHING except body-bags coming home!

Now just why is that?

Well, Tubularsock figured out as a young boy with his friends while playing ā€œWARā€ that the enemy was WE!

You see, the boys in the neighborhood would divide up in teams and we would figure out who was going to be the ā€œGOOD GUYS, AMERICAā€ and the ā€œBAD GUYS, GERMANY AND/OR JAPAN.

Now all this was formulated by the movies of the day and you all know how WAR PROPAGANDA works being as true today as it was in the 1950’s.

But for Tubularsock playing ā€œWARā€ was enlightenment because Tubularsock discovered that the ā€œdriving forceā€ of the activity was to WIN! There was no good or bad! And most importantly as a ā€œsoldierā€ you were of no importance on either side except to win or die.

It was at that point Tubularsock made up his mind that war was dumb and that he would NEVER join a military.

But to seal that deal Tubularsock did join the Cub Scouts because you got to hang out with your friends and do ā€œneatā€ things but it didn’t last long and as they started to ā€œrecruitā€ our ā€œdenā€ to join the Boy Scouts Tubularsock had seen enough movies to know about the HJ in Germany and the Great Japan Sincerity Association in Japan. (Remember those news of the world shorts that movie theaters ran before the main features? Tubularsock paid attention!)

Both, in Tubularsock’s mind, were just different renditions of the Boy Scouts. And thus pro-nationalist organizations which prepared youth for war!

So at the ripe old age of 10 Tubularsock decided never to join a group, a military or a war! THE DIE WAS CAST!

    Let’s see a quagmire is a “mess, predicament, mare’s nest, can of worms, quandary, tangle, imbroglio; ” yup that qualifies. How did you get to be so smart at the age of ten?

    And don’t forget that our dear leader, Donald J. went to military school.

    Tube: I think Trump went to military school in the US, his father made him. But he didn’t like it well enough to join the real military when he came of age. He found out the military did not have maid service and did not serve wine in the mess hall.
