Not any faster than all the Europeans who fought for your American
independence 150 years earlier.

Another generation of American men and women who paid billions of
their tax dollars to rebuild Europe after World War II, and then
sacrificed their blood and treasure to fight the Cold War for another
generation, must surely be thinking the same thing -- why did we
bother?


How much blood was lost in the Cold War?


Good grief.,
