Going to war, especially overseas, takes a kind of idealism, even evangelism, and it's usually bad for business. Hence it's historically been a liberal thing. When I was a kid the republicans used to say that since Lincoln no war ever started while they were in the White House.
I remember those days and I'm much younger than you.
