Apparently, Congress is full of folks who love perpetual war and world policing. Rand Paul is the one bright spot.

 It's big business.  Big lucrative contracts.

Example, Afghanistan.  Look at the number of civilian contractors there.

Start with the motor pool.  All civilian run.  Mess Halls?  All civilian run and operated.  Plus logistics, again, civilian run.  These are huge contracts, this is why we have poured $800 billion plus into this operation.

Last time I checked, diesel fuel delivered to Afghanistan (and we use a lot) is over $20/gallon delivered, again, civilian run.

I believe the organizers of this would have enough sense not to just hand over the proceeds to congress.

Agreed.  Big establishment types, and supporters, but just think of the PR?

 They thrive on big government contracts, and they need the support of the dims as well as the republicans.   If they supported such an effort, the establishment (d&r) would thrash them and look for another contractor.

 The grass roots effort is beautiful.  It's approaching $4 million right now, after only 3 days.  Just think where it will go if it gets more media coverage.

Maybe some large contractors like Bechtel, and Halliburton should volunteer to build the wall for free, or at least at cost?  They've made billions from government, and the American taxpayer.  Step up!

 They are tied at the hip with the establishment class, and they are no friend of the President.   

 The votes should have been there in congress and the senate, but once again the RINO's prevailed.

It shows ingenuity and American spirit.   Will it get to the ultimate goal?  Who knows.

But it does show that Americans are concerned, concerned enough to actually dig into their own pockets if necessary.

This should send a message to the inept's of congress.  No doubt the progressives are searching for an obscure law to say this funding is illegal, or even better, the Russians are behind it.

Two priests leave a restaurant after having a nice dinner and wine together. As they're driving down the road they come up to a police roadblock.

A policeman approaches their vehicle with a flashlight and taps on the window motioning to roll it down. "Evening!" says the officer.

"Good evening officer - what seems to be the trouble"? asks the 1st priest in the drivers seat.

"We're looking for a couple of pedophiles", the officer explained.

The 1st priest rolls up his window as the police officer watches him have a discussion with the 2nd priest in the passenger seat. The officer, waiting patiently starts to become concerned because their conversation seemed to never end.

Finally, the window rolls down, and the 1st priest says.

"Okay, when do we start"?

A thought occurred to me today.

 This Syria pull out has a purpose.  Trump is goring someone's ox by doing this.  Big contracts are gonna fall.

 Any bet on the back room negotiating going on right now?

Yep. The fact that our people are still getting killed by IEDs is ridiculous.

 They are just "the cost of doing business".    $800 Billion+  has been spent there of our money, most going to very lucrative civilian contracts and contractors.

 50,000+ lives lost in VN for much the same cause, but lots of companies made $millions$ in the process.

 War is big business.

We had some friends for dinner last week and heard the story of what they did, we need a lot more people like them on the local level.

This was back prior to 2012. They got involved with the county election board and discovered that rules were being broken and - no surprise- it was the Dems doing it, so they embarked on an educational campaign. They produced a video about the exact election rules and started educating the poll workers etc. It was totally non partisan, just the rules on the books about how to conduct the election legally.  Well the Dems in charge SUED them. Hauled them into court and they also embarked on a media campaign to destroy them. Well it backfired. The judge found in their favor because they had done nothing wrong and the media campaign ended up turning the people against the Dems for their viciousness and the whole county turned from blue to red majority, and all this was prior to 2012 when one of them was involved in a bad accident and they had to drop out of politics completely.

What they did was bring to light the illegal stuff the Dems were doing and I like to think most people have a sense of fairness and don't want to see our election system corrupted. Hopefully most people sense that if it's corrupt then our entire democratic system is endangered so they don't want either side to cheat.

 We just witnessed election fraud during the 2018 mid terms. And while we saw some complaining, nothing has really changed.  Look for 2020 to be an all out assault.

 Again, the problem lays with career politicians on every level.
