Carter: "U.S. has never had a policy of preemptive war"
Comments:
According to Dimmy Carter the war agains Japan was the only legal war the U.S. has been in since the Civil War. Makes sense if you are an idiot.
A lot of your examples are not truly pre-emptive, they were reactive. Noriega actually declared war on us (laughable as it was to do so). So did Mussolini. Kim Il Sung invaded South Korea, so our involvement in the Korean War was not pre-emptive. Khaddafi attacked our troops, so spanking him was not pre-emptive.
An activist policy of military intervention is not necessarily the same as a policy of "pre-emptive war". There was little fear, if any, that any of the guys you cite were planning to attack the US, and therefore when we gave them a beat-down we were not acting pre-emptively.
But anyway, nothing would energize me more to vote GOP, if I were a Nevada voter, than incompetent dipshit Jimmy Carter speaking in favor of a Democratic candidate.
