This. The Soviet Union never restored it. The United States never restored it. We managed to engage in a turf war where we held our block and they had theirs. Both managed to install a government, but that government never really controlled anything beyond our own block and most remote tribal regions probably didn't even know there was a president.
I understand we had to go, our enemies attacked us from there and even if we fought something more than a "peacekeeping mission" we still probably wouldn't have accomplished much more than we did.
We should have invited Russia to "joint coalition" with us but I suspect Putin would have been too smart for that. I guess it's China's turn next to go over extend themselves.
It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.
Chuck, we miss ya man.
