"People always call conservatives "war hawks," but look at FDR and LBJ and Lincoln and Wilson. They got us into Vietnam, WWII, the Civil War, and WWI! All told, about 1.2 million men died due to liberals getting us into wars that I woudln't have fought." This is an opinion. Liberals did not get America into the Civil War. The Civil War became something that needed to be fought after one side started attacking the other. FDR did not drag us into WWII, and the liberals cannot be blamed alone. Both houses of Congress voted unanimously for war, save for that one pacifist lady. Vietnam started before LBJ, he just dragged it on. Wilson had little to do with the entry in World War I, if anything, the conservatives had more to do with it than him.
