Cant Have It Both Ways

I watch the news & mix it up a little to see who is saying what & hopefully between the different news sources I can get a straight answer or news story but what I have found through the news & through listening to people is that we want it both ways. You are asking what this means & let me explain.
Some people want us out of Iraq, Pakistan & anywhere else we have troops but in the same breath want us to stop hunger in Darfar or other 3rd world countries. If we go in a fix the problems it would be through government or military & this would be contardictory to pulling out of Iraq or Pakistan. You can't have it both ways. We either help everyone or we help no one. I don't personally like having my son in law in Iraq right now but know he is protecting a people that would be basically slaves to wicked self rightous dictators if we weren't their.
There are those that say we have to have green energy & that we can stop global warming but are one of the only countries in the world that talks about it & we can't stop anything unless everyone buys in. The second problem is that we can't do anything about global warming because the earth has cycles of heat & cold whether man is n the earth or not & that is undisputed. But wait a minute, think of the people who are screaming about this? They are making fortunes by scaring you & are driving their suvs & flying their private jets. Come on, you aren't sheep, so get your heads out of your dark place & wake up. Quit being little insecure sheep, following the shepherd to slaughter.
If you want to help people around the world it takes diplomacy, if that doesn't work, it takes force. There is no 3rd option but one thing that is a fact, "YOU CAN'T HAVE IT BOTH WAYS"

Couldn't agree more, Ralph. I'll keep your son-in-law in my thoughts and prayers.
