Kerry, from last night's debate:
"the swagger of a president who says 'bring 'em on' does not bring our troops peace or safety."

So the point of American foreign policy is to keep our troops safe? I thought it was to keep civilans safe from, you know, terrorists.

The more terrorists from Saudi Arabia, Syria, et al that we kill in Iraq, the fewer there are to attack innocent people here. It sucks that soldiers get killed doing that, but it is their job, and better a soldier than some poor fucking secretary or accountant.
