In a country weary of war and war mongers, The Candidate rattles his impotent saber

In the annals of American history there are no men from any generation of Rmoney's family who served.

Yet there was, on last night's stage, threatening war with Russia and Iran. Earlier in the evening, Mrs. Rubio's bratty Little Boy was suggesting war with Cuba.

In my insignificant family, every man of my father's generation served. In my generation more than half served. I am certain my family is more typical than his. I am certain the millions of families like mine have more meaningful thoughts on who we ought to fight than some chickenhawk pissant.
