“I do not believe that America should fall subject to a foreign policy of military adventurism. We should only risk shedding American blood and spending American treasure when our vital interests are threatened and we should always look to build coalitions among the nations to protect the mutual interests of freedom loving people. It’s not our interest to go it alone. We respect our allies and must always seek to engage them in military missions," Texas Gov. Rick Perry (R) said at the Veterans of Foreign Wars convention in San Antonio.
"At the same time, we must be willing to act when it is time to act. We cannot concede the moral authority of our nation to multilateral debating societies. And when our interests are threatened, American soldiers should be led by American commanders."
