If you actually believe that, you should never get involved if you see someone breaking into your neighbors house. After all, you probably have enough trouble under your our roof (like most uf us have), to get involved in calling the police or trying to stop the burglers. And, they will not be bothering you if they are breaking into your neighbors house. If you see someone in a hit and run, don't get involved! You need to worry about getting that pack of smokes from the store you were going to when you saw the crime.
If you see a teenager driving like an idiot through town, don't get involved. It won't be you that gets run over by his reckless driving.
Why should we have gotten involved when S H (saddam Hussein or Sh$# Head, your choice) invaded Kuwait? Those people are not us.
There is no difference in these scenarios, just the scale has been changed.
I have seen many of the places we have "gotten involved in" and many we have not. The world is a better place because of the United States of America!
... In both instances my hands spoke for me... But that was for my "Neighbor" and to take your though a little further... I would also get involved if a woman was in trouble on the street as I rode by.... However I fully unerstand that I cannot come to everyones rescue AND if I was foolish enough to think I could then one day I probably would not make it home to my wife and children... 
Excellent post, although it will mostly go unheard here on Republitards.org. And as far as some Right wing fanatic calling your opinion stupid: that's just par for the course around here.
Africa?? Ever heard of Somalia??
Let us not forget that one of those who never served in any of the armed forces is a man by the name of Obama yet many are wanting to put him in the oval office.
If it is about the oil why haven't we been taking it from Iraq?? I also agree there is much more to Africa but as with everything, have to deal with the most serious matters first. As for Somalia, we pulled out of there before we should have and look what happened. Everyone soldier who lost their lives there died for nothing. Who was in the white house when that happened??
Oh, it was Clinton, another president that didn't have military experience. And I did not say military experience was a prerequisite, just making comment to your statement about those in the congress and senate not having military experience and sending our boys into harms way. Can't have it both ways

What can I say? I love to stir up neo-cons in the morning. Sorry.
