...my twit filter.

From ndcf.org (the source of the drivel Marlowe posted):
The National Defense Council Foundation (NDCF) is a 501(C)(3) non-profit think tank studying defense and foreign affairs issues that face the United States of America today. Specializing in the study of low-intensity conflict, the drug war, and energy concerns, NDCF is a non-governmental organization and receives no federal funding or direction. We brief Congress, the media, and our members on salient matters that affect the socioeconomic, political, and military aspects of the Nation.

So you post a position piece from an outfit with a serious axe to grind, as if it were the Truth, and hold up what can only be described as propaganda as justification.

Who you crappin?!?

(And, Yes... you are missing the point....)
