    While Trump is busy defending America and protecting us from terrorists, keeping us “locked and loaded” and “waiting to hear” from Saudi Arabia about what our military should do about Iran, presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard is attacking our country, which is basically treason.

    She tweeted this week "Trump awaits instructions from his Saudi masters. Having our country act as Saudi Arabia’s bitch is not “America First." Is that what you think of America Tulsi? You dare disgrace our great nation by calling us such a hateful and ugly word?? Other American hating libs joined in on the act by tweeting similar traitorous comments like "The US should never go to war to protect Saudi oil.", "As President I will not go to war for Saudi Arabia, nor will I let Saudi Arabia dictate our foreign policy." -- this is absolutely disgusting.

    Going to war with Iran is a no-brainer and if Trump wants to do it, anyone who is opposed to it is opposed to America, just like anyone who was opposed to going to war with Iraq was opposed to America. The Saudis are vital to our economy because they help stabilize the oil markets -- oil prices went up by double digits due to this attack on our nation --- These America hating leftists are once again trying to stand in the way of our president and our military just like they did back during Iraq --- which is why that whole Iraq War debacle is their fault.

    As for Tulsi's continuous attempts to aid and support our enemies, a woman who never truly served her country -- it is time she along with her terrorist supporting friend Omar -- its time they are deported back to where they came from.

    We haven’t really been compensated well considering the defense we offer them. Sure they buy weapons but is it really enough? Nah. I await the day when their oil isn’t valuable enough any more to warrant our presence in the ME. Let all the psychos eat each other alive and maybe those who survive might join the 1st world.

    Just because you’re sitting on black gold and are “wealthy” doesn’t mean your country isn't backwards as ****. Most of them are.

    I'm disappointed. I thought she was smarter than Trump. The Iraq war was the dumbest foreign policy blunder in 60 years.

    As much as I agree with Tulsi on her non-interventionism, how is this UNIFORMED OFFICER not being brought up on charges under the UCMJ?

    So you want to deport a 20 year war veteran back to Hawaii. How’s the weather in Saudi Arabia today?

    Sounds like the same rhetoric used to start the 2nd Iraq war.

    Tulsi Gabbard Calls America Saudi's Bitch -- Should She Be Deported?

    No she should be ignored. We should always ignore what politicians say. It is what they do that matters.

    Why do you think the USA keeps such a massive military? Do you really think that it needs to be so large just to defend America?
    You go to war abroad for self interested reasons, just as every other empire always has.
    You think you went into Iraq or Afghanistan to help their downtrodden people?
    Bottom line is money, every single time.

    Personally i'm of the opinion that any retaliation that comes from this should start (and hopefully end) with SA, its not our facility and I assume they are perfectly capable of responding themselves.

    If it was a houston refinery that was attacked, would SA be locked and loaded or would they just wait and see what we do about it?

    as far as TG goes, not sure if her remarks are applicable until we know what the US does or doesn't do.

    What she did was to serve in our military for 20 years and reach the rank of Major.

    Saudi Arabia attacked us on 911. Saudi Arabia is the main reason that America opened the door to Muslim immigration to America. Saudi Arabia birthed the idea of Islamaphobia. Saudi Arabia is actively subverting every Western nation by sneaking Islam into them all via mass immigration. Saudi Arabia is the enemy of the American people. If they want a war with Iran, let them fight it themselves.

    Funny how China has NOT engaged in any military activities in the Middle East in the past few decades and their net Muslim immigration is 0. Meanwhile the West meddles in the Middle East and their net Muslim immigration is now in the 10s of millions. The Middle East has caught on to the fact that the most effective way to fight wars is through demographics. Let the west fight all these meaningless wars while we change their demographics from 0% Muslim to 50% Muslim.... and when we get to the magic 50% mark, the war is over. France will fall in your lifetime due to demographics. You are going to have a front row seat to the first Western nation to fall to Islam and not a single shot will be fired. It will be done democratically.

    Free speech is an essential American freedom, and speaking out against our government is permitted. To deny that right is not only unpatriotic, it empowers a tyranny. I can think of few things more un-American than blindly accepting that a President can act as he pleases. Isn't that the reason for the Second Amendment? This ain't Iran or Saudi Arabia. We should keep it that way.

    I wish we can really be energy independent. We still import about 10 millions barrels of oil a day. If we do, screw all of those countries that hate us. Let them go back to riding camels.

    She's 100% right. Why are we listening to the Saudis on anything. Trump's tweet was discouraging. Awaiting what the Kingdom wants to do??? Sounds like bitch talk to me.

    Waiting to hear from SA on what to do about Iran? As in waiting for their instructions?
    Are you effing serious? SA was attacked, they should defend themselves. We really don’t have a dog in this fight.

    So, I take this as satire. Clearly, not meant in any serious way.
