Utter nonsense. Spoken and spun like a true Lib politician! Bernie Sanders has a place for you on his team!
I'm an Independent. Want to try again?

I find the battery life adequate for my needs, of course improvements are welcome but not at the expense of weight and size of the device.
Efficiency is the way forward, it's just not the Apple way to slap a bigger battery on it and call it a day.

I pick the right side 100%.
It is not the responsibility of the American government to make sure that our enemies, and their citizens are safe, that's the responsibility of their government. But let's not pretend that they're innocent here. You don't have an insurgency without getting support from the local population. They need a place to hide their fighters, weapons, etc. Most of them are complicit. Even if they weren't, the alternative is 9/11. Which do you prefer? Our innocent civilians, or their "innocent" civilians? War is not fun, but this one is simple.
Who cares If the rest of the world has a problem with us defending ourselves, then they can shove it up their orifices. We have a right to our lives and our security, and if another country is initiating aggression against us, then they will stop. The only variable is whether they choose to stop, or wether we make them.
How could it possibly? If they realize that there's no hope that their ideology will ever take hold, then what is there to fight for? Besides, even if they didn't, we've got plenty of resource to force them to stop anyways. This enemy isn't even a small fraction of what Japan or Germany were to us. Not even close. To pretend that we don't have the ability to win this war is just crazy. We just don't have the moral backbone to stand up for ourselves.
What? How is that even related? And what example would that set for whom? There's no organized effort attempting to establish a theocratic dictatorship against us. Besides, they're integrated with out citizens, that's completely ludicrous. The citizens of countries whose governments are aggressing against us are not equal to us.
Fact: These radical insurgents have aggressed against us, and they are supported directly, or morally, by their more moderate citizens.
Question: Will you sanction punishment for their actions, or will you endorse an endless war where our enemy steadily gains ground, and we steadily continue to lost our security and liberty, and pretend that there's no way to end this?
It's them or us. I choose us.

Im guessing you meant "fascist"?I would rather be defiant and be who we have been over history than to let the terrorist win the war of ideals. I guess you can call that "liberal" but better "liberal" than facist right?
See? So easy! They = Bad, We = Good. And why are they bad? Because they are Not Good. Good stomps out Bad! Let's swiftly bring Democracy and Freedom to them!
Also, it has always worked, right? What could ever go wrong...
Us going overseas and shooting anyone who even looks at us funny couldn't possibly create insurgents?
Have you heard of ISIS? It is a fact that they are a direct result of our invasion of Iraq.
As a matter if history, every time we try to fix the middle east with troops, we end up worse than we are.
That is great that you "don't care what the world thinks" but what if the rest of the world decided to embargo the US because of our actions?
What about honoring the spirit of our founders rather than what they fought against?
It really comes down to a choice, we can be afraid, or we can hold to our values and be defiant, I would rather be defiant and be who we have been over history than to let the terrorist win the war of ideals.
I guess you can call that "liberal" but better "liberal" than facist right?
I care about the fact that they, either actively, or passively, are attempting to establish a theocratic dictatorship across the world. Yes, that makes them bad. We are not trying to do that.
Yes that makes us 'good'.
And the actions which I am we should take have not been taken since the mid 40's. And yes it did work.

And you ask what ever could go wrong? I point you in the direction of the present and continually degrading state of the developed world, and say, "Whatever did go wrong?"

Care to read what Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has to say about the whole "continually degrading state of the developed world"? Hint: Americans haven't clean hands. At all.

And? Nobody has clean hands so I fail to see your point.![]()
Yeah, nobody has clean hands, but some have them dirtier than others, and it is nastily, dangerously cynical to be all self-righteous about it. They would surely also fail to see the point, while continuing to push theirs.
